It is with pleasure that I introduce ‘Squeak Parks,’ yell master (your pardon folks, Mr. Parks says that he is ‘king’) of the University of Oregon. Mr. Parks.” ‘‘I feel like a sap, folks, I can’t see you but on the other hand you can’t see me, but that wasn’t what I was going to say. We boys are up to Portland to yell our heads off and support that team and chalk up a win from Washington tomorrow. You wait. You’ve heard about. Ore gon Spirit—do you want to see' some? Well here goes. All right, gang, let’s bust the air wide open and ride to Portland on the draught. An Oskev.” Merely a Version Of course you understand that that is only our version of what is going to happen at the radio rally at KRX Friday Eon Hubbs ii i g li t fit nine [o’clock. Knowing tlie limitations of the human voice, lion Hubbs, eliair | man of the Great ! er Oregon com ! mittoe, which is j in charge of the | program, says that j this means is be j iiig taken to tell | the whole w i <1 e ! world about Ore gon Spirit. The University of Oregon band will bo at the sta d tion broadcasting that sweet music of which we are so proud and in ad dition will constitute the majority of the rooting section due to the aug mentative nature of radio and the diminutive proportions of the sta tion room. Most people would say enough, but not the University of Oregon. In addition to the above set forth attractions, will appear, or more technically, will resound the gentle strains of Walt Galloway's orches tra and at intervals the soothing, crooning voice of the far-famed and illustrious Madge Xonnile will re gale the listeners.

Arrangements have been made by Wilbur Shannon, circulation man ager, to have a big shipment of papers taken to Portland tomorrow morning and have them distributed at the entrances of the Multnomah stadium as the students arrive for the game. Tomorrow’s issue will have all of the lineups and advance dope on the game written by the sports staff and will contain pictures of the Lemon-Yellow horde which will take the field in an attempt to blot out the sign of defeat which Washing ton has hung on Oregon the past three years. Lettermen Rap Move To Change Size of Award Order of ‘O’ Opposed to Rifle Team Sweaters; Nelson Heads Banquet The Order of the “O” swung the ax yesterday, figuratively speaking, and clipped off the heads of two proposals aimed at obtaining sport letters at the University. After considerable discussion, the group went on record as opposing the amendment to the student body constitution which would grant minor sports lettermen whose sport has been raised to a major one the right to wear major letters. Tennis lettermen would be the main ones affected by this amendment, which asked this privilege providing the athlete had fulfilled the present j major requirements when he earned j his sweater. The other question frowned on ; was the proposal to award athletic i letters to the R. O. T. C. rifle team, j This was opposed on the grounds that it was not an approved sport. Recommendations on ’the tennis award measure will be presented, to gether with the amendment drawn up by Mel Cohn, at the next student council meeting. Carl Nelson was appointed by President Lester Johnson as chair man of the Order of the “O” ban quet following the homecoming game, at which all old grads who are lettermen are guests. Johnny Anderson was placed in charge of the arrangements for the gridgraph, which will be operated on the occasion of the California game at Berkeley and possibly for the U. C. L. A. game. The grid graph will be run in the usual man ner this year with dancing between halves aud following the game. Dr. Hall’s Reception Will Be November 1 President Arnold Bennett Hall’s annual formal reception for mem bers of the University of Oregon faculty will be given in Alumni hall in the Woman's building November 1, from S to 11 p. m. Fat Girl To Be 'All Rage’ If Men Have Their Ways, Is Prediction Co-eds Losing Awe When Talk Is of Poundage If the men have their way—femi nine curves will return to style. Xine out of ten campus men ques tioned on the subject admitted that a girl had much more attraction if she resembled a live being rather than an animated bean pole. Fashion experts have decreed it, the men have seconded the motion— wliat is the co-ed’s reaction? Miss Harriet W. Thomson, who has charge of the individual gym classes, stated that of the entire group of girls who were found to be underweight when they took their physical examinations, only one ob jected to gaining weight. This was rather startling when out of last year’s group there were 20 or 30 who objected to the suggestion that they might add a few pounds. Although Miss Thomson claims that these figures are not a definite criteria, they tend to encourage the doctors and health experts who are waging such a strong war against dieting. Miss Thomson has hopes that girls are beginning to realize the dangers of rigorous dieting except under the advice and care of a physician. She characterizes it as “all bunk.” Perhaps the return of the "figger” will also bring the death of the “eat and grow thin” and the “calorie counting” hysteria. Four Webfoot Menaces LaSalle.

Enrollment Now Exceeds Marks Set a Year Ago Graduate School Shows Large Increase of 33 Over Previous Record Enrollment on the University of Oregon campus now totals 3174, a new record for fall terms, it is an nounced by Earl M. Pallet!, regis trar. This is considerably in excess of the total of 2850 registered for fall term last year, and is even greater than the entire enrollment of 3128 set for 1927-28. The 1928 29 figure is expected to reach more than 3500 when increases at the be ginning of the winter and spring terms are added. Of the total on the Eugene cam pus, 3005 are regular full time stu dents, while 1(19 are taking exten sion courses in the evening. Exten sion students take an average of four hours, or one-fourth of the reg ular student load, thus making the 169 equivalent to about 40 regular students. This would make regular full time enrollment on the Eugene campus equal to 3045. Extension students In other cities and medical students in Portland alo not counted in the above figures. The enrollment at the medical school is limited to 220, at which figure it is always maintained. A total of 367 students are enrolled in exten sion work in cities other than Port land. Figures of Portland classes are now being compiled and will be released later. A marked increase in enrollment is noted in the graduate school of the University, where the total has grown from 95 to 128. An increase of transfers from other colleges and universities is also shown by the figures, indicating that more inter est is being shown toward the Uni versity by discriminating students. Practically all students in the University are from Oregon, the (Continued on l'age Two) Rifle Coach’s Weapon Proves Fate of Deer Captain O. II. Bragg, coach of the rifle team, has cut another notch in the butt of his rifle. When he re turned from his hunting trip last Sunday he brought home a fat young buck. The captain left Friday evening with two other men, and traveled over to the Siuslaw district where they stayed until Sunday. Saturday morning the captain succeeded in downing his deer. He has placed it in cold storage so that he may enjoy venison steaks for as long as pos sible. Ducklings Try Wings Against Normal Today Monmouth’s Aggregation Expected To Impede Flight of Fledglings The Oregon freshman football i team plays Monmouth Normal school today in the first game of their season. The game is scheduled■ for 3:00 o’clock at Ilayward field. Little is known of the real ability of the yearlings, and Coach Billy Reinhart, will use the game to find out what his men can do. Mon mouth, on the other hand, has al ready proven to have a strong team. Boh Earl, Oregon graduate and ex-freshman coach, is handling foot ball at the Normal school this year, the first year that they have had a regular coach. The teachers recent ly defeated Linfield college, 30 to 0. Willamette university only managed to beat Linfield by a slightly larger score. Frosh Work Out The yearlings were run through a light workout last night to brush up ou their plays. Considerable time was spent on goal kicking, run ning down punts and punting, and formation for the kickoff. Four men are now on the crippled list and will be kept out of the game to morrow. George Glenn, halfback, j has a bruised hip, Jack Erdlcy, end, ! pulled a muscle last night, Shirley l Carter, center, is out with a bruised hip, and J. E. Fetters, tackle, has a bruised shoulder. The probable starting lineup in the brickfield will be: A1 Brown, quarter; Clarence Disney, half; I Steve Fletcher, half, and Jim De Mers, full. Other backs to see ac- j tion arc: Bill Minsinger, John Lon dahl, and Thomas Ward. Frosh Have Good Ends At end Dean Kicks and Jack Erd ! 'ey are slated to got the call with Gene Tarbell to see action. Irvin ] Shulze, Francis Keltner, and Joe l Fetters will work at tackle. Glen | Bessonette, C'y West, and lies An- j derson are the three likeliest guards. At center Eric Forsta will get the call. Shirley Carter, another good center, is on the sick list. Coach Reinhart expects to use practically all of his men. The | game, he says, will be merely a test to find out who the best men are. ORDER OF “O” All members of the Order of the “O” meet at the Multnomah ( stadium tomorrow at 12 o’clock noon. Les Johnson, Pres. Oregon Men Should Be At Football Rally Eddy and MeKeown Ask Students To Show Spirit At Pep Meet Saturday Serpentine Will Get Pick of Good Seats Long Line Forms 1 p. in. at Imperial Hotel Corner OREGON STUDENTS! Victory in Saturday’s game will lie determined by the amount of Oregon spirit on hand. There fore, il is vital that all stud ents sit in the rooters’ section at the game in Portland and lend their assistance to the veil lead ers. Every Oregon man must be at the Imperial Saturday at 1 p. m. to form a line of march for the big serpentine and march through the streets in Oregon’s greatest rally. lie there! Everybody! Pep is the kev-word now! lie at the rally! The Rally Committee. Every Oregon man must bo at the Imperial hotel in Portland Saturday at 1 p. m. to prepare for the great est affair ever put on by the Univer sity of Oregon—the rally for the Oregon-Wo shington football game, it was emphasised yesterday by Bill Eddy, chairman of the student rally committee, and Joe Mclveown, president of the associated students. “It is very important that each Oregon man be at the Imeprial cor ner on Saturday for it is up to the students to make a good showing for the university,” was the statement issued by Bill Eddy immediately af ter a meeting of the rally commit tee yesterday. All those who plan to drive down town in their cars should leave in plenty of time so that they may park their automobiles before the rally starts or else have their folks bring them down. A still further piece of advice is for students to park their cars near the stadium before coming down to the Imperial hotel ns no outside car will be al lowed to parade with the serpentine. Roo ters Go in First “Absolutely no one will be admit ted to the rooters’ section at the stadium before the serpentine marches into its choice seats,” it was pointed out by President McKeown. An extra police force will bo on hand together with the Order of the “0” men to strictly enforce this rule. Assurance lias been given that the mob crowding at the gate of the Oregon-Stanford game will be avoid ed at the Portland game. At the Imperial hotel Saturday at one o’clock, a short pep rally will be hold. From there, the men will form what is expected to be the longest serpentine line ever seen in Portland and march through the streets to the accompaniment of all types of noise. About six rally cars will lead the procession equipped with rattles, sirens, horns, and bombs to make Saturday’s rally the noisiest event in the university history as well as in Portland history. Can Show-off Pep “The Portland games always pro vide the university students with the opportunity to show the state metropolis as well as the state in general what we have at; Eugene,” declared McKeown. “We are going to go out to that game Saturday and show the world that there is no such thing as no Oregon Spirit. We are going out there and display the best spirit ever shown by Oregon. We are going to show the people (Continued on Page Two) L. Delano Appointed as Oregana Photographer Leonard Delano was appointed as official photographer of the 1929 Oregana by John Allen, associate editor, yesterday. He is to be in complete* charge of covering campus and student activities and athletics for the picture section during the coming year. Assistants will be an nounced later. A request that all students who are in the habit of taking pictures on University subjects, or those who have any original ideas for pictures, to turn them in, was made by Delano, 1600 Students Buy Tickets for Came Portland Sale Reaches 1 H , 0 0 0 Yesterday Student attendance at the Oregon Wnshington game tomorrow after noon in Portland should reach a rec ord number, according to figures on ticket sales given out yesterday by “Doe” Robnott, assistant graduate manager. More than half the students on the University campus are going up to Portland, he says, as is witnessed by the sale of 1(100 tickets up to last night. In addition to these sales hundreds of reserved seat tick ets for outsiders have been vended. This is believed to bo a record crowd of Oregon students atending a game outside of Eugene. Advance sales of tickets in Port land reached 18,000 yesterday, Rob nett announced. Students who expect to make the trip north will have their last chance to get their rooters’ section ducats today. There will probably be no more tickets sold after today since tlu' last student special train leaves tomorrow morning* Alumni Groups Plan To Unite Under One Head Old Oregon Supplement \V ill Inelnde Reports From Medical Group The alumni association of the University of Oregon nledieal school and the Oregon alumni body are planning to unite into the Oregon alumni association and each of the groups will vote on such a plan at their next meeting. According to the plan, the Oregon alumni association will print the proceedings of the meetings of the medical men as a supplement to Old Oregon. The proceedings of the alumni association of the University of Oregon medical school will only be sent to the doctors. Claude A. Lewis, M.D., secretary of the alumni association of the University of Oregon medical school, has written Miss Jeanette Calkins, editor of Old Oregon, favorably of the new plan. The executive com mittee has agreed to try out the proposed plitn but it must be voted on at their next meeting. The new plan will benefit both, it is thought. It will include the medi cal department of Willamette uni versity, which merged with the Uni versity of Oregon medical school in m:;.' Hcrmian Club Stages Party for Members East 11 ifillt from seven-thirty’until ton tho llevmian club sponsored a party for all physical education majors in the dancing room of the Women’s building. During the evening tho members and their guests enjoyed games and dancing. The pledging of five girls and two faculty members was also announced. The new pledges were Eunice Daniels, Hilda Top, Afton Mareneilll, Eleanor Cleaver, Mahal all Kurtz, and Louise Hodge and I'hyllis Gobe, who are the faculty members. Tryouts for TIermian club consist of a series of tests in var ious dives and strokes that the club selects. Only upperclassmen are eli gible to tryout for membership. Victory Looms For Webfoots In Portland Oregon Team Leaves This Morning for Husky Till On Multnomah Gridiron Squad in Condition For Strenuous Contest Oregonians in Jubilant Mood on Eve of Battle The Webfoot grid team, with more bnpo for victory against Washington than for several seasons, leaves this morning at 8:00 o'clock for Port land, Oregon is eager and ready for the game on Multnomah field tomorrow afternoon. Captain John J. McEwan’s selec tion of the starting team after Wed1 nesday's practice relieved the ten sion among the players. The work out Thursday night was only a light one, and climaxed a stern grind since the Stanford game. The final practice was wholly dif ferent from those for two weeks back. The determined mood of the Webfooters was still there, but the grim scowls had vanished. Instead of tlm fierce drive of the days be fore, the Oregon players laughed and chattered throughout the practice as though they were going to Port land for a lark instead of a football brittle. Starting Lineup Is Definite The starting lineup is definite, and Mr Ewan will make no more changes before the game. George Bunnell and Charles Williams start at halves, John Kite,miller, quarter back, and Cotter Gould, fullback. The line, the strongest one at Oregon for several years will be: George Stadelmnn, center; Austin Colbert and George Christensen, tackles; Marshall Shields and Mer rill Hagan, "guards; and Woodward Archer and Ted Pope, ends. The reserve squad includes: Center—George Chappell. Guards—Norman Jesse, Jerome Lillie, Everett McCutchan and Ted Park. Tackles—Homer Dickson, Marion Hall, Scott Warren and Tom Weems. Ends—Walter Browne, LaSalle Coles, Lawrence Slnuson, Arthur Stendal, AVillis West, and Harry Wood. Backs—William Parke, Wallace Shearer, Ira Woodie, Bob Robinson, Alt Old, Erancis Hill, John Dono hue, and Cecil Gabriel. xnree ruunacKs The peculiarity of Oregon’s linck field is the presence of three full backs in the line-up. Gould, Kitz miller, and Williams were all alter nating at full until Dave Mason, half, was injured, forcing Me Ewan to rearrange the combination. Kitz iniller, however, is not the conven tional fullback type, and can play any of the bark field positions with the same degree of skill. Kitzmiller, though only a sopho more, will be the center of the Ore gon attack. He has the rare accom plishment of being a triple threat man. He punts, passes, and carries the ball with greater ability than any other backficld man developed by Me Ewan. Power in Line Oregon’s real power lies in its line. Studelman is one of the out standing centers on the const. The tackles, Colbert and Christensen, are heavy and fast, and have not been slowed by the lack of experience. Hagan is a veteran, who was equal to tlie best on the Stanford line, he shows promise to eclipse the (Continued on Page Three) Secret Entrance of Sacred City Related by Daring Adventurer McGovern Entered Lhasa Dressed as a Native The thrill of venturing into an unknown country and penetrating a forbidden city was experienced by the students and townspeople who flocked to Villard hall Thursday afternoon to hear 1 >r. William Mont gomery McGovern speak and see the motion pictures of his great trip “To Lhasa in* Disguise.” The speaker, who is tall, dark, and young looking, wore a dark suit with cutaway coat. To see him sitting silent and relaxed in a chair before his lecture began made one wonder if he could really be the great and daring explorer who hail penetrated into the sacred and forbidden city of Tibet and not only emerged alive but brought back motion pictures to show his exploit. Rut when Mr Govern began to talk and his eyes began to glow, one understood how he could have had the nover-ending courage and vitality to carry out his project. The vivid pictures his words painted made one imagine himself in this daring party. McGovern Repulsed Once .
