E. I)c Con, who besides being Iiead of the mathematics department is in charge of that activity, “is to get members of the faculty out of their swivel chairs and away from the worries of their professional duties. We feel that health is of importance to the faculty. A professor is better off ns a professor if he takes part in some physical sport.” Mr. Pc Cou says that for 9 num ber of years, at the beginning of each school season, it has lseen the custom to urge new faculty mem bers, if they are not already so, in clined, to get into some florin of physical activity as often ns pos sible. - ‘^Arid T feel,” smiled Mr. On Con, “that their lives are in better shape if they play part, of the time, and that the students appreciate it as much as they do.” According to Mr. J)e Cou, Jhero has been a larger proportion at fac ulty members at the University of Oregon engaged in regular sports than at any other institution of the country for a long period of years. Mr. De Con’s favorite sport is mountain climbing. He has been on several trips with the Mazamas of Portland, and has climbed all the mountains of note from the Three Sisters, south to Crater Lake. He likes golf, but plays volleyball as an alternative. Oregon winters are not kind to golf enthusiasts, ho thinks. Dr. Wetherbee Gives Travelogue on India Dr. Joseph It.

Smith Holds 3-Vote Lead In Balloting Sunday Movies Winning Approval of Majority; Opponents Make Gain Men and Seniors Showing j Most Interest in Polls Smith held his slender lead over ! Hoover in tlio seeond day’s ballot ing of the Ktnerald’s straw Vote, and is still ahead by three votes. The total votes cast now stand Smith 87, Hoover 84, and Thomas, the Socialist nominee, six. So far Thomas Varney, the prohibition partv’s candidate, has not received a single vote. Although campus sentiment on the' Sunday mpvic. question so far seems to be strongly in favor of the pro posed measure, trie proportion of votes cast against the measure in creased during yesterday’s balloting. As it now stands, there are 94 votes for the measure and 22 against it, 18 of the latter having been cast yesterday. Men, mostly senior men, show the greatest interest in the straw vote. In the two days that the voting has been going on, only 22 women have voted, as against the better showing of 98 votes made by the men. Only five graduate students or members of the faculty have cast ballots so far. The ballot box in the main library will be there ‘until Saturday, and all students and faculty, whether they be registered voters or not, may vote. Ballots must have the name of the voter on them in order to be counted. A careful cheek is being kept of all the names on the ballots in order to prevent any stuffing of the ballot box. Dean Allen Receives Fine Printing Books Two largo ' volumes, representing tlie finest of European printing and typography from the early sixteenth century to the present day, were received yesterday by Dean Erie W. Allen of the school of journalism, the gift of Dr. John Henry Nash, master printer of San Francisco and also an associate professor in the Oregon journalism school. One of the volumes represents a collection of the finest of French printing made by Anatole Claudin, a master printer of Paris. Claudin spent twenty years, from 1880 to 1900, collecting and printing the work, reproducing pages and engrav ings from books printed, in all parts of France from the very beginning of printing up to the time he worked.

' The other volume received by Dean Allen is a commemorative of the finest work of E. R. Weiss, a famous German printer. The ’great er part of the book is devoted to *eproduetions of beautiful title j pages designed by Weiss, but there are also many examples of printing in both old and modern German, of posters, engravings, and many other specimens of fine printing. The University of Oregon school of journalism is very fortunate in having those two volumes available for examination, according to Dean Allen. To be able to examine the original works of the Olaudin collec tion would be impossible to every one but an European traveler, but this volume gives reproductions as finely printed as the original. Dean Allen has placed both volumes on exhibition in the main library. Sport Leaders for faculty Members of University Chosen Tlio following faculty members, according to Professor E. E. Bo Cou of the mathematics department, have been appointed as leaders of the various sports for this year: Dr. I). R. Davis, assistant pro fessor of mathematics, and Professor A. B.

Geologist Hunts Fossils In North Persia Eugene Callaghan Writes Of Interesting Journey On Scientific Project Searching the plains of northern Persia for fossils of interest to science, hoping that some evidences might be found indicating the de velopment of man, was the interest ing experiences during the past summer of Eugene Callaghan, a graduate of the University of Ore gon geology department. Callaghan sailed a few days ago from France for the United States, his party accompanying the first collection of fossils to come to the American museum/ from Persia. What significance the fossils may have will be determined when they have been examined and described by scientists in this country. In a letter to Dr. E. T. Hodge, professor of eco-nomic geology at the University of Oregon, Callaghan de scribes liis summer’s activities. The young Oregonian is entering Colum bia university, where ho received the Kemp fellowship of $1000. In the collection of fossils brought back by Callaghan and his company are vertebrates, including skulls of rhinoceros, horses, deer, gazelle, carnivore and other bones of these animals with possibility of other species. It was the original hope of the backers of the expedi tion that on the highlands of north ern Persia might be found evidences of the traverse of early man from his birthplace in central Asia west ward into Europe. Much of the activity of the expe dition company was centered in the region about Mt, Snhend. Callaghan flew by Junkers airplane fromi Teh ran to the Iraq border of Persia.

Senior Bench Acquires Annual Disfiguration The seniors about the campus were somewhat disappointed today when they sought to display their newly acquired dignity by draping them selves on the senior bench. Yes, it was still in its usual place but in slightly altered condition. They might have deposited their manly forms on its concrete softness as per usual, but the after effects would not be the most desirable. Two huge emerald-green 19J2’s chal lenged attention. However, no rep resentatives of that infant class were to be noticed at close range. At first no evidence could be lo eatert, but on closer inspection some emptv popcorn bags and three or four greenish finger prints were dis cerned. Whose finger prints were they? This is a fitting time for all prospective detectives to get on the job. Who knows what startling facts will bo brought to light? Per haps some prominent sophomore or even yet more prominent junior might shed some information on this most interesting of speculations. “Service DeLuxc” EASTSIDE CLEANERS 1991 Franklin Phone 461 wants AN AGENT V To represent us in every frater nity and sorority on the campus.
