Revival of
Wrestling Should
Re Fostered Here
^ Interest Demands Minor
Sport Again; Hoop
Series Draws Croud
-__I
By RICHARD H. STRING
Sports Editor
^o"’ that the various universities
and colleges of tlio Pacific -coast
have had a chance to let their stu
dent body coffers convalesce from
a financial sickness, why not bring
wrestling back as a minor sport?
Wrestling, by the way, has never
been done away with as a minor
sport. Two years ago conference
graduate managers let it die, what
they thought was a natural death,
by not scheduling any meets. The
reasons at that time were that
wrestling did not pay for itself and
that interest in the gentle art of
grappling was waning,
f But wrestling has arisen from its
somewhat compulsory grave and
now the clamor for this sport is
greater than ever. Last Friday
night wrestling teams from the Uni
versity of Oregon and Oregon State
College met in a friendly, little ad
vertised, meet in the local men’s
gym, and it proved to bo a suc
cess. More than 200 students wit
nessed the Aggies take the meet
from the Webfoot wrestlers.
* * *
So much interest has been taken
in the sport at O. S. C. that Chet
Newton, voluntary coach, has a
large squad working under him.
After last Friday night’s competi
tion Newton said, “Although it is
not as spectacular as ‘the team
games, it is a good intercollegiate
sport and should be recommended as
such. We believe, from the inter
est shown tonight, that it is a justi
fiable sport and should be rein
stated. The match this evening
was undoubtedly valuable in stimu
lating interest in intercollegiate,
^ wrestling.”
Earl (Dutch) Widmer, the well
known Oregon coach, was of the
same opinion. “Some means were
necessary to reincarnate 'the death
of conference wrestling in Oregon
and among the coast states' in gen
eral, and this friendly bout was
the best medium to accomplish this,”
said Widmer.
* * *
There is no reason that the gradu
ate managers at their annual spring
meeting to bo held in Missoula,
Montana, this June, should not
schedule several wrestling bouts. Of
course these conference Midases can
not see any gold forthcoming. This
argument cannot prevail, however,
when one gets down to the funda
mental reasons for intercollegiate
athletics. College athletics are not
for the purpose of making money.
Of course, they must support them
selves, but football makes much
more than it takes to conduct a grid
campaign. Why not take some of
this surplus and provide for wrest
ling competition. College athletics
are for the furthering of physical
development among the students.
To do away with wrestling for
ever is not fair to that group of
Oregon students who are interested
in it as a sport. There is plenty of
interest on Ahe Oregon campus.
Some twenty wrestlers have been
practicing every day under Coach
Widmer. This is good considering
that they have had no opposition.
The revival of wrestling hasn’t
only affected Oregon and O. S. C.
Every year the University of Cali
fornia has asked to schedule meets.
Wrestling is still active on the
Washington State campus. Last
year a team of Cougar grapplers

Literary Editor Says Rhythm of Eye
Sweeps Will Increases Reading Rate !
<
“‘I wish I had more fime to read,’
is one of the most common sayings
of the present day,” says Robert
S. Lvnd, literary editor of the Lon
don Daily News, in his little pam
phlet, “You Have More Time to
Read.”
Here is the list of rules to in
crease speed in reading, which Mr.
Lynd has compiled from the recom
mendations pf Jeading educators:
“Force yourself for a while to
read more rapidly than feels coni,
fortable. Make as few stops or
eye ‘fixations’ in each line as pos
sible. Do not read by syllables or
even by words, but by groups of
words, phrases, and sentences.
“Do not allow the eye to break
its forward sweep by wandering
back in regressive movements to
pick up something you have missed.
Establish regular rythmn of eye ^
movements.
“Bo not pronounee the words as
you read or even allow your lips to •
move silently, as this slows up read
ing. Test yourself by reading for
15 jninufes in some standard book
Iikg Bryce’s American Common
wealth and then count the number
of lines read. ° '
“Discriminate among types of
reading. Cultivate the knack of
shifting gears accordingly, and
finally, have some flexibility and
sense of humor about all this, i
Don’t go dancing off with the idea, s
that nothing is worth rolling under 1
one’s literary tongue, or that we ]
eounsel dashing through the ‘Ode
on a Grecian Urn.’” i
April Frolic
Heads Named
By Chairman
m
Frances Plimpton Gives
Outline of Plans
For Event
Annual Women’s League
Masquerade To Be
April 14
April Frolic, which is scheduled
this year for April 14, is beginning
to emerge from the embryonic stage
and piails for a
lively and enjoy
able Frolic are
entering upon de
finite formulation,
said Frances
Plimpton, social
chairman of Wo
man ’s Leagjue,
yesterday when
she named heads
of the various
committees for the
event.
Those who willFrances Plimpton
head the stunts for the four classes
are, Edith Bain, senior; Charlotte
Oarll, junior; Helen Peters, sophor
more; Kay Bochester, freshman.
Other committee chairmen appointed
by Miss Plimpton aret'Diana Dein
inger, features and curtain acts;
Mary Duckett, stage manager; Vio
let Mills, official announcer and
head of cops; Virginia Manning,
programs; Edith Dodge, patronesses
and judges; Helen Webster, tickets
and admission; Mae Tobin, refresh
ments and concessions; Dorothy Ba
ker, publicity. The complete com
mitjteesi will be announced early
next term by these heads.
Tor Women Only
The affair is sponsored annually
by Women’s League and given ex
clusively for the women of the cam
pus. The exclusiveness will 'be
strictly enforced this year, said Miss
Plimpton, with ten or more sturdy
cops on guard to minimize to the
zero degree the attempts at entrance
of would-be visitors of the opposite
sex.
The gymnasium of the Woman’s
building will again be the scene of
the party, and masquerade costumes
of whatever size or description will
be the order of the night. Seats in'
the balcony will also be sold to wo
men who do not desire to participate
actively in the affair. April 14,
which will come on a Saturday night,
lia3 been set aside exclusively for
this event with no .house dances
scheduled for that night.
Classes Give Stunts
This year’s April Frolic will be
the third in which the stunts will
be given by each class. Previous
ly stunts were given by the houses,
bift the class plan was adopted two
years ago as an experiment to elim
inate the tiresome lepgth, and was
found to be very successful, adding
more lively interest and preparation
of more worthwhile stunts.
Curtain and feature acts, will be
arranged to entertain between acts,
and a grand march will help display
the costumes to the judges. A prize
of $5 will be awarded for the best
costume of the evening, and a cup
will be given the class putting on
the best stunt. Although definite
arrangements have hot yet been
made regarding conditions of the
sale, it is probablp that ice cream
in some form and pop-corn, which
seems to be taking the lead in pop
ularity among campus confections,
will be on sale during the evening.
Last Emerald of Term
To Be Out Thursday
The final Emerald of the winter
term will be published Thursday,
March 8, it was announced yester
day by Bob Galloway, managing
editor.
“The Emerald must stop in time- '
for the staff to study their term’s
work and be able to pass their ex- '
aminations. Those wishing stories
in the paper before the term ends
should get them in as soon as pos
sible because the last paper is al
ways crowded,” he said. I

! Noted Writer
Will Lecture
Here Tonight
‘Literature and Life’ Is
Subject of Address
By Floyd Dell
Guest Has \ aried Career
As Novelist, Critic.
And Playwright
Arriving’ nt noon today, Floyd
Doll, moveliat, playwright and
oritio, makes his initial appoaranoo
in Eugone. Ho will deliver the ad
dress, “Literature and Life,” at 8
o'clock this evening in the gym
nasium of tho Woman’s building.
This is the fourth and concluding
lecture of the A. S. U. O. series, in
which have been presented Judge
Ben Lindsay, Maurice Hindus, and
Will Durant. Tickets may be se
cured at Jack Benofiel’s office, at
Lara way’s Music Shop, or at tho
University Co-op.
Floyd Doll is widely known ns
the author of several much rend
books, among which are “Moon
Calf,” “The Brinrv Bush,” “Janet
March,” and “The Runaway.” His
latest and most talked of novel is
“The Unmarried Father,” which ap
peared last year.
Begins as Workman
Mr. Dell’s economic and literary
career is a checkerboard of vary
ing experiences. He first began as
a factory hand, and later became a
poet. “It was made inevitable that
I should become a writer,” he has
confessed, “by my gradual expulsion
at an early age from most other
ways of making a living.” Begin
ning ns a reporter in Davenport,
Iowa, he went through tho succes
sive stages until at 2.1 he found
himself in Chicago as literary edi
tor of tho Chicago Evening Post,
whero his book section was consid
ered one of the most stimulating in
the country.
Story tellers and poets aro the
interpreters of life, who evaluato
our human experiences for us, is the
opinion of Mr. Dell.
“Tho world is chaotic,” he has
said, “but great artists have been
able to take the ugly things and
make them a part of a beautiful
whole. But there is a kind of cow
ardice in modern fiction. People
get themselves badly hurt in trying
to do something with tho world. It
is difficult to go ahead and find out
where we get hurt, and throw our
energies again into tho fight. Lit
erature of the present day has a
convalescent air. It is tho litera
ture of people who aro too dis
couraged to deal with life. When
we have recovered from this defeat,
I do not think wo shall caro for
this kind of literature. We shall
find we do not neod it.”
Reception Is Planned
After Mr. Dell’s lecture .tonight,
a reception will bo given for him
at the Three Arts Club, where mem
bers of Pot abd Quill, Tabard Inn,
Eugene Writers’ Club, local writer
groups, will be given an opportun
ity to speak with him in person.
In order to hear Mr. Doll and be
present at his reception, several
writers and journalists of the Port
land group will arrive in Eugene
this afternoon. Among them aro
Vivian Bretherton, classed as Ore
gon’s foremost short-story writer;
Burgliild Lee, Queen Lister, Ethel
Fuller, Verne Bright, Leland Davis,
Faye Howe, C. O. Olsen and Mrs.
Olsen.
While in Eugene, the lecturer will
make his headquarters at the Os
burn hotel. He will probably leave
for Portland early tomorrow morn
ing on his way north.
Mrs. Burt B. Barker
To Be Honored Today
Mrs. Burt Brown Barker will bo
honored at a formal tea to be given
by Susan Campbell JlaH this after
noon from four until six o’clock.
All faculty women are cordially in
vited to attend.
Mrs. Barker with Mr. Barker, vice
president of the University, have
been on the campus for several days
where Mr. Barker has been attend
ing to official business pertaining
to the University.

Glasses Take Leap
Sans Parachute but
Are Rescued Intact
It usod to be a neni* tragedy when
Grandma dropped her “specs” on
tho floor. Chances were that she
would have to get them repaired or
get a new pair.
Grandma certainly would have
lost fear of breaking spectacles by
dropping them if she could have
observed what happened to a pair
last, Saturday at the grandstand
football field, where a track meet
was in progress. Reginald Smith,
sophomore in pro-medics, together
with Donald Johnson, freshman in
economics, living at. the Chi Psi
lodge, were taking rides as passen
gers in David Langmack’s plane
over the campus at the time tho
meet was being held. Deciding to
take a “peek” at the affair, Lang
mack swooped to an altitude of
about 700 feet.
As Smith looked over tho edge of
the fuselage for a look at the
group below, the slipstream from the
propeller flicked his glasses from
his face like a bit of chaff and
down they fell. ,
“There goes fifteen dollars,” was
the not-too-cheerful comment of
Johnson.
Smith was downcast at tho ap
parent loss of his glasses, but de
cided ho would look for the remains
when he got back on the campus.
Going to the placo where he thought
they might have fallen, he chanced"
to see a bit of the rims protruding
above some sticks.
Today he is wearing them as
usual.

12 prominent students on the campus
who will compose the Greater Ore
gon directorate. The directorate
will handle all affairs of the com

Wandering Oregonians Score Wins '
Over Ancient British Universities
Youth has tliumphed over ago.
Newness overcomes antiquity. Six
old British universities, steeped ni
tradition through a period of cen
turies and boasting of hundreds of
graduates famed in history fell be
fore the logic of the University of
Oregon’s roving debaters, and went
down to defeat by audience decis
ions, according to a letter J. K.
Horner received Saturday from Ben
oit McCroskey, one of the Oregon
men. In a seventh contest the Uni
versity, men met defeat by one vote
at the hands of the University of
Glascow, Scotland.
After circumnavigating approxi
mately half the globo in the longest
forensic tour ever undertaken by an
American college, Benoit McCros
key, Jack Hempstead and Avery I
Thompson landed in the British Isles:
facing a schedule that included sev-j
en of the most famous old univer
sities, enough to squelch and subdue
any comparative upstart like the
University of Oregon which deigned
to undertake such" an invasion.
The Oregon men were deeply ini
pressed by their distinguished foes,
but they were in no sense discour
aged and resolved to do their best,
as they had already done in the first
part of their trek. In their seven
debates the men debated both sides
of tho questions, “Resolved that tho
prohibition of alcoholic liquors is
undesirable,” and “Resolved that
Democracy is undesirable.”
Sheffield University, located in
tho famous steel town, first fell be
fore tho Oregonians, much to tho
surprise of both parties. The Uni
versity men then journeyed into
“bonny Scotland” where they con
tinued their winning habit by de
feating in succession the famed Uni
versity of Edinburgh, St, Andrews
University, tho University of Aber
deen. Wiith the University of Glas
cow, the debaters met their only up
set of the series, losing by an au
dience vote of 43-42. Prom Glasgow
they crossed the Irish Channel to
the “Emerald Isle,” where they met
and decisively defeated two moro
institutions of note, Queen’s Uni
versity, of Belfast, and tho Univer
sity of Dublin.
