SPRING Sports Edit* In a ragged but exciting game from a spectator’s viewpoint, the University of Oregon basketball team nosea out the invading Uni versity of Mon tana quintet, 36 to 33, in McArthur Court last night. Trailing along at the end of a 18 to 17 score at half time, the Web foots fought an up-hill battle dur ing the second ► canto and succeed Scott Milligan ed in wresting victory by a three point margin. Last night’s game marked the Oregonians’ third con ference win in five tilts played and last home contest. Grizzly Offense Fast The Montana University hoop sters displayed the fastest breaking offense seen on McArthur Court this season. It completely swept the Webfoo\s off their feet and scored five points before Milligan entered the Oregonians in the scoring .col umn with a shot from under the bas ket. It didn’t take Cloyse Over turf or Eddie Chinske very long to get down the floor. Any place past center saw this pair of forwards taking a shot. Most of Montana’s seven field goals made in the first half were long shots. Free Throws Help Oregon If it hadn’t been for the Ore gon quintet’s ability to shoot fouls last night the Montana Grizzlies might have returned to their north western lair with a victory. The Webfoots scored 12 out of 18 tries for free throy-s. The visitors con verted 11 out of 15. Though the game wasn’t so rough, 27 personal fouls were called on both teams. Oregon was penalized for 14. Bey nolds, Oregon center, and Bankin, Montana guard, were ejected from the fracas because of four personal fouls.

The response for the fall term .Crawl surpassed any of previous years, and Women’s League hopes that winter term will bring even more dimes, for they all go into the Foreign scholarship fund of Wo men’s League, which annually brings a student from a foreign country to the ' campus. Tlieresc Chamberland of France is the re cipient of the scholarship this year, and is a resident of Susan Camp bell Hall. Mazie Richards, chairman of the committee in charge of the affair, asks that both men’s and women’s houses plan dinner early so that the crawling may start promptly at 6:30. iCo-eds will be waiting for the eds —and the dimes.

The question ifbw before the house is that of celebrating Leap Year by having a Campus Leap Week, during which the women will call the men up for dates, take them out, and, most important of all, foot the bills. In other words, let the men give the women a little of their own med icine. The men of the campus who were interviewed are unanimous in favor of having this week set aside, while the majority of women are all for it. Walter Norblad, sophomore in pre law, registered great enthusiasm when the question was broached to him. “Great, marvelous, it’s the best thing that could happen. Wo men will later appreciate the bother that men go to and the money that they spend. It’s going to be hard . on some of us, but ...” Ralph McCulloch, junior in mili tary, was in favor of it. “I’d be a gold-digger that week,” he told the reporter, “and how!” Ronald McCreight, junior in bus iness administration: “Good idea; I might have a possibility of getting a date out of it.” Society Ed. Enthuses Margaret Lang, society editor of the Emerald and a junior in jour nalism: “I think it’s a perfect idea. It will certainly cause a lot of worry among some of the sheiks that think they are so hot.” Naida Plummer, freshman in art, did not agree with the majority: “I think it’s dumb, because it would just take the conceit out of a lot of men and put it into a lot of others.” Betty Shultze, junior in journal ism: “It’s a slick idea, and ft would afford some of us an opportunity to date with the secret sorrows that have snubbed us unknowingly. The only trouble is that the girls with (Continued on page tWQj State Editors Banquet Has Noted Orators | Frank Branch Riley To Tell East’s Ideas Of Westerners News Men’s Conclave Opens Here Friday Special Fetes Are Planned To Entertain Wives Opportunity will be given Ore gon newspaper men to hear Burt Brown Barker, new vice-president of the University, when he speaks at the banquet of the Oregon news paper conference next Friday eve ning, February 10.

Blanshard,[in X Talk, Scores Labor Status He Flays Capitalists as Tyrants of Modern Factory World Speaker Paints Ford As ‘Dreamer-Magnate’ Man Out of Work Should Be Paid, He Says “We are at present living under conditions of industrial feudalism, and there is no such thing as indus trial citizenship in more than three fourths of the American industries,” said Paul Blansliard, labor worker, lecturer, and world traveller, in a talk entitled “From Henry Ford to Bernard Shaw,” given at the Y. M. C. Ai hut yesterday afternoon. lAs long as capital is the ‘con dition of control,’ ” he said, “t}je man who owns tl5e business is the master. He can and does buy and sell labor like any commodity.” Blanshard has been associated with the labor movemnt for many years, having done educational work with the American Federation of Labor, as well as several other large unions. Henry Ford was characterized as a symbol of the present day indus trial system, capitalism at its best. “He is a dreamer,” said Blanshard, “and has advanced ideas and {>rin ciples that society will probably ac cept. The essential worth of large scale production has been demon strated by Ford, die thinks, as well as the tremendous, advantage to the consumer. The menace, however, of such great combinations as the electric power and oil groups was recognized. Sees Short..r Hours The minute division of labor is necessary in modern civilization, but its disadvantages are evident in the monotonous work of factory work ers. “I am quite converted, since my visit to China, to the mechanics of our civilization,” said the speak er. “If we treat them properly, they give us leisure to enjoy life, but we must remember the respon sibility for the men who are the cogs of the machine. The short hour day is the solution to this problem, and Ford has recognized this to a small extent. The increase in pro ductivity should be used in the light ening of labor,” said Blanshard, “and I see no reason wliv shorter and shorter hours should not even tually come.” Unemployment, lack of an indus trial democracy, and the unequal distribution of wealth are the three things that Blanshard accuses Hen ry Ford of neglecting in his indus trial scheme. “There are probably 2,000,000 un employed in American cities today,” he said. “In New York, a cellar called the ‘Tub,’ where one phil necessswy in modern civilization, but called the “Tub” where one phil anthropist attempts to feed and clothe the poor, is all that is pro vided in this great’city.” * Even England, with all its un employment, has an insurance plan; not a dole, as it is sometimes called, but a system whereby all workers contribute and are entiUed to draw out on need. Asks “Subsidy” “Why not create a National Un employment Fund, which, if it elim inated unemployment, would bene fit the capitalist as well as the worker?” he asked. Bernard Shaw is an idealist, ad vocating an absolutely cqujal in come—his theories are imparctical, but are really an interesting stim ulous to thought, Blanshard believes. “Either the large business inter ests will dominate, or else we will dominate them,” he said. “I am trying to arouse an interest in the two kinds of students that seem to be capable of interest, the religious ly inclined, and the intellectual types.” Previous to his talk at the “Y” hut Blanshard spoke on threo dif ferent occasions on subjects which were directly related to his world wide experience. At 9 a. m. “The Story of the British Labor Move ment,” was presented to a group in 105 Commerce building. Infor mation in this discussion was gained from actual study of the situation (Continued on page three) Theta Sigma Phi elects: Florence Hurley, Frances Cherry, Miriam Shepard.

Opera Classes Will Present Next Program Scenes From ‘La Boheme’ Anti ‘Martha’ Feature Of Concert The fourth recital of the series sponsored by tlio school 'of music will be presented by the beginning and advanced opera classes of Ma dame Rose McGrew, Wednesday evening, February 15, in the auditof ium of the music building. Owing to the indisposition of John B. Sie fert, tenor, there will be no recital this week. This year is the third 'one for the opera classes which now have an enrollment of about students. “The main object of the courses,” explained Madame McGrew, “is to develop the personality of the stu dents through the medium of the opera, both light and classic. The courses are open to anyone who ap pears on the platform. It is sur prising to see the self eonscoiusness of people, diminish as they become absorbed in the drama of this form of music.” Two opera scores will be given bv the classes, all but the finale of the second act of “Martha” and a scene from “La Bolieme”. A quartet con sisting of Grctchen Kier, soprano; Louise Storla, contralto; Kenneth Allen tenor, and Donald Ostrander, baritone, will present “Martha.” Janet Pierce, soprano, and Adrian Burris, tenor, will give the scene from Puccini’s “La Bolieme.” The program will also include solo scenes from operas sung by Paulino Guffrey, Fay Finley, Jack Dennis, Maldon JTorton and Harry Scougall.

Gra cious, don’t you know it will take you at least 15 hours, even if you speed along, and that you’ll prob ably have to camp out all night? I wouldn’t do it if I were you, it’s too dangerous.” Such was the advice given to Dr. W. P. Boynton, head of the Univer sity of Oregon physics department, when he first bought a Ford in 1909 and wanted to make tho long, hard trip to Portland. “It was real work dHving in those days,” said Dr. Boynton. “If I didn’t want to be worn out when I roached Portland I had to take two days for the trip. Generally I stopped overnight in Salem.” “There were acetylene lights in my old car, which was the first one ever sold in Eugene. These lights were so poor that they made driv ing at night almost prohibitive. An other bad thing about the car was the carbide generator. Every time I used it I had to Btop and clean it out,” Dr. Boynton stated. Krazy Kopy Krawl, Karnival of Kapers, Will Be Holiday Hop Krazier than ever!
