Large Crowd Comes To See' S Kerns Exhibit Collection Will Remain Open Several Weeks For Public Inspection From Hawaii to Luxor; Many Scenes Depicted People who would wander Into | the quaint and little ]• nown places <if the Far East may have their vishes fulfilled by visiting the Ore \ gon Museum of Fine Arts, in the I Woman’s building,. where for sev | eral weeks a large ■collection of I travel sketches made by Miss Maude Kerns, assistant professor of nor t mal arts, will be on display. The sketches are beautifully and I; delicately colored, and in all scenes I the actual tints have been extreme I ly well reproduced, those who have i been to the places declare. From | Hawaii, famed for its many shades | of color in sea, sky and hillside, to 5 Luxor, Egypt, rich in interesting 1 personalities, range the pastels, | oils, water colors and sketches. Picture Holds Interest One picture in particular should I be of great interest, since it is really a rarity, obtained only be cause of the high esteem in which Mrs. Warner, who directs the mu seum, is held by Japanese. This de picts a scene in a temple at the Homvoin, made famous because of it.s association with two lovers of Japanese art, Dr. William Sturgis Bigelow and Ernest F. Fenollosa. These two Americans went about Japan, just at a time when this na tion was rapidly swinging away from its ancient customs and even its ancient art. They pointed out the great value of this work .and brought the Japanese to a realiza tion of their treasures. Later both studied Shintoism at this temple, a lovely spot situated on Lake Biwa, and when they died their remains were brought here, to rest in the grounds of the Miidera. It was to a memorial service for these two men that invitations were extended to Mrs. Warner, Miss Kerns, Mrs. Lucy Perkins of Eugene and a few other foreigners, and here Miss Kerns received material for one of her best_ sketches. At the memorial service for Dr. Bigelow and Mr. Fenollosa, Mrs. Murray Warner was accorded the honor of being invited to place wreaths on their graves, and Uiese feie placed there in tlfe"naihe of the University of Oregon. New Atmosphere Shown An entirely different atmosphere from that of Japan is seen in the other Far Eastern sketches. Miss Kerns has done some excel lent portraits, one of a Chinese rickshaw boy and another of a Jap anese serving girl being especially expressive of the Very spirit of the subjects. Both rare and beautiful are several pictures of the gorgeous temple costumes which were donned by the Japanese especially for the artist to sketch. Tlie collection is to remain for several weeks, and will bo open to the public, it is announced. Today it will bo open both afternoon and evening, and thereafter may be seen on afternoons and on other occasions.

Men of the old school of football did not have the early training necessary for great players today, lie said. They have to pass, now, and do all sorts of tricks that were unheard of in 1000. With every generation football reaches new heights of science. The time is coming when very few men who have not been practically born with footballs in their arms can ever play on really good teams. A higher percentage of youngsters Ilian ever before a*'e learning the rudiments of football. Captain Me Eivan said he notices the difference every year. Such is the case in both the east and the west. “My father-got me a football for my birthday when 1 was a baby and threw it to me on the bed,” said the captain. “A lot of people don’t allow their children to play football for fear they’ll get hurt. They ought to let them play it. It’s a good game. What if they do got hurt a little bit?” I Scribe (Continued from Pape One) ost.

Oregon Doped to Win If dope counts for anything the team that trounced the Oregon Aggies, 12 to 0, last week-end, should win by a good margin, but let it be remembered, it will not bo until a fighting Grizzly eleven is subdued. By comparison of scores, Oregon has a 56-point advantage; the Ag gies having defeated Major Mil burn’s team, 44 to 0, earlier in tho season. The black-jersied, white-lettered Grizzlies who will probably start the Oregon Homecoming fracas are Harmon, left end; Peterson, left tackle; Foss, left guard; Lewis, center; Mulick, right guard; Walk er, right tackle; Eognloin, right end; Captain Chinske, quarterback; W„ Ekegren, left half; Moore, right half, and Davis, fullback.

Edmund Spear, educational di rector of the Oxford University PreSs, who is visiting in Eugene and will give a moving picture lecture next Tuesday evening at Villard hall at 7:.1Q o'clock.* “But the ‘bulldogs’ aren’t really bulldogs—or at least they aren’t the canine kind,” Dr. Spearo hastened ] to explain. They are chunkily-built little fellows who traditionally wear | derbies, and are the proctor’s body* i guard. Oxford men are under strict | regulations—and the ‘bulldogs’ see that all rules are enforced, accord ing to the visitor who briefly is scholar-editor, author, teacher.

He has j taught at the University of Wis j cousin summer sessions at Harvard j and the University of California, at I Middlcbury College, Vermont, at the University of Maryland ami other schools. Dr. Spearo is also the author and editor of a number of books among them a recent “Es says,” “Vital Forces in Current Events,” “War Issues and Ideals,” and did some editorial work and brought to completion the late Pro fessor Bruce’s “The Evolution of Authurian Romance” in two vol umes. lie will show, with his lecture, two reels of pictures, the first being de voted to student activities, tradi tional customs and life at the Ox ford colleges. Not a dull series of campus views but a lively, exciting and rather informal pictures of Ox ford chosen to show the interesting contrasts between the American and the English educational systems, is what Dr. Spearo promises in the I reel. The second reel will show Oxford University Press, which has been printing books since 1478, and will picture the publishing of a book from the time the manuscript en tc»-s the company until the book is completed. “It is a tremendously big thing to grasp—this idea that a company has been editing works of Alums!
