Freshman Hurl While
Decorating for Glee
Vrosh 11 loo decorating was a bit
woeful for llichard Lewis, freshman
in economies, who fell from per
ilous heights and cut a two-inch
gash in his forehead. He recived
treatment at the dispensary. Doro
thy McClaren, who fell recently
while riding horseback and received
quite severe cuts and bruises, is
much improved.
Three new patients have entered

White Rats Mahe
Darling Playmates;
Declares Zoologist
Want n new playmate?- A icuto
white one with pink eyes,
nose, feet, amt even a little pink
tail? Pardon. A long, skinny one.
The zoology research station has
some very nice ones. White rats—
and only a month old. They are .'is
affpetionato and playful as kittens,
as their proud owner, Birnet Ilovey,
who has been doing tropism experi
ments with them, gladly'explains,
and in order to pirove it, he puts
them through nil kinds of tricks.
The little darlings have a sweet
tooth and when a cube of moistened
sugar is put on the top of their cage
they display great aerobatic skill
and climb to the top of the cage to
eat the sugar. When one gets more
to eat than the others fegl that he
is entitled to, they pull him down
by his tail. They are very dainty
eaters, holding the food given them
carefully in their front paws when
nibbling.
The rats are naturally very af
fectionate and like to climb all
over tlifir owner. A favorite habit
of theirs is to lick his hand. Some
persons may not care for this, but
the rats are easily trained so the
practice can probably be overcome.

In Blockade of
‘Favorite Sons’
Bourbon Parly Split Over
Candidates; Paper Line*
up Forbodes
Mtv United Pr#*«<8)
WASHINGTON', I). C., Jan. 20.—
The potential “favorite son” bloc
in the Democratic, lineup has reached
tho point where its combined
strength probably is within nbout
10 votes of the one-third necessary
to block A1 Smith.
The governor’s fate would appear
to depend chiefly upon whether a
coalition of local candidates could
lie welded into a batnllion of death
ready to fight indefinitely.
Several reasons / are offered
against the possjbf ty of such a
paper lineup really k Ring Smith off.
One is that most leaf ?rs of the party
are afraid of anothe factional fight
like that) of 1024 Vvnd would be
willing to see Smith nominated if
ho gets considerably above a
straight majority. "
Another reason is that some of
the favorite son candidates, like
1 'omereno of Ohio and Ritchie of
Maryland, are for Smith if ’ they
cannot win themselves. Smith un
doubtedly will fall heir to a good
many of these votes after the first
few ballots. A third reason is the
some of the favorite sons are se
cretly prepared to accept the vice
presidential nomination with Smith
if they can get it.

A score of lino-hion turned out
on the sodden, sun bathed, practice
field on the west side of the var
sity stands yesterday where Coach
John .T. McEwnn held football prac
tice.
'Most, of tho men out were from
the freshman team of last year. Har
ry Wood, Tom Weems and Meryl
I Hagen were the only lettermen to
: report.
Conch MeFwan after letting the
! men limber up began drilling them
| on correct line positions, offense
land defense. Form is what the foot
j brill mentor is after now. He de
sires to get players inured to the
! right and best positions and prac
tice them ’till they become natural
and habitual.
A player must be on balance, be
lieves the captain, so that ho is in
position and able to go forward, to
either side, or to the rear, without
any useless and time wasting shift
ing about, or with loss of power.
Tho lineman’s offensive charge
was demonstrated to tho men. The
player charges forward in short,
quick steps, head up and back
straight. The group was then given
individual attention ns they each
practiced this charge.
During the session McFwan lined
the men up in line positions, then
walked up and down correcting er
rors and showing tho right way.
Some of the lettermen demonstrated
the work to the freshmen.
Forest Conservation
Discussed by Writers
In Quarterly Review
Forest conservation is the theme
of the current issue of “The Com
monwealth Review,” published quar
terly by the schools of sociology
and education, and the departments
of economics, history, and political
science of the University of Oregon.
“At the Forest Cross Roads” is
the title of an article by Thornton
T. Hunger, director of the Pacific
Northwest Forest Experiment Sta
tion. Hr. Hunger points out the
tremendous increase in lumber pro
duction in Oregon in the last few
years, and contends that it is the
time for a universal policy of re
forestation or forest farming in
this state.
“Sustained Yield and American
Forest Problems” is the subject of
an article by David T. Hason, a
Portland forest engineer. Mr. Mason
discusses the present yield of Ore
gon forests and the changes in pro
ductions that should be made to in
sure a sustained yield from the for
ests through future years.
In the concluding article of the
“Review,” Dr. F. G. Young, dean
of the school of sociology and edi
tor of the quarterly, discusses the
best methods of utilizing to the
fullest extent the resources of Ore
gon.
New Plan Proposed
To Better Acoustics
Of McArthur Court
According to reports from Jack
W. Benefiel, graduate manager of
j the associated students, the pro
| posed plan for bettering the aeou
1 sties of McArthur Court is to be
1 put before the administration as
! soon as possible.
The plan is to use some kind of
I material to absorb the sound of the
j building. The most feasible plan,
! and the one which will bring by
far the best results, seems to be the
covering of the ceiling with burlap

In Renefiel.
Other possibilities include the ar
ranging of curtains from tlio ceil
ing to the bottom ef the balcony,
cutting off most of the balcony, and
padding the concrete wall in back
of the balcony.
If the whol? ceiling is covered
it would lake a material with an
absorbing power very near to that
of burlap, but if heavier material
is used, a little less than one-fourth
of the ceiling would need to be
covered, and would be put where it
would be most convenient to do so.
If this plan is to be adopted the
building will be more suitable for
both spepking and music, according
to Beneficl.
Lone Chance for
Smith Is Appeal
To High Courts
Vare’s ‘Slush Fund’ Next
In Line for Senate
Probing Body
(By United Press)
WASHINGTON, I). C., .Tan. 20 —
Appeal to the United States supreme
court or re-election in Illinois ap
peared the only courses left open
to Frank L. Smith today in his
fight for admission to the senate.
Ills friends said they did not
know what his next move would be.
• A resolution by Senator Heed,
Democrat, Missouri, chairman of
the primary investigating commit
tee, declaring Smith’s election taint
ed with fraud and corruption and
his seat therefore vacant was
adopted late yesterday by a senate
vote of Cl to 2.!i ;
This overwhelming vote against
seating Smith wi^s held by some ob
servers as forecasting possible simi
lar action against Senator-elect Wil
liam Tare of Pennsylvania, whose
ease will bo taken up next by the
Heed investigating committee.
There is a difference between the
two cases, since Tare’s election
was contested while Smith’s was
not, but both men have found the
temper of the senate against them
and have been blamed for using
large “slush funds.”
