They played a regular game, which the supers wort l»v a -7 to .'IS score, mid then after a short rest started the engagement all over again. Had they but played a few minutes long er, the games would have resulted in a preliminary to the varsity con test. The frosh leave this coming Friday for a two-game invasion of Med ford. They will meet the Medford high quintet, which is coached by Frink Callison. II is team is touted as one of the greatest high school teams ever developed in the state of Oregon. Medford Placed Second. The Medford team placed second to Washington high of Portland for the state championship last, spring when they barely lost in the final game of the tournament, playing an overtime period to break the tie scon*. The Pear Pickers lost only one man this year, and he will face them this week end. Ksfill Phipps, the Medford center in I PI'S who was named on the second all state team, is on the freshman first squad and it seems that he has the center position ('inched. Ineligibility has taken its annual toll and left the freshmen with six less men. The loss of (theater Knowlfoa, all-state guard from Tillamook, will he fell most. Other men ineligible are Lewis Ankeny, due P.riteher, Charles Craves, Ivan Kafoury, and Ceorge McFarland.

I'his reversal was brought on part ly by the large number of subs! it ules sent In .by Spike Leslie, and partly because the supers were making a larger percentage of their shots. Billy Keenan Fast Ibllv Keenan, who comes to the frosh from the Portland Checker 1 mauls, ran all around the opposing players.

Warren lSmith, head of the department of geology, addressed the Lions’ club of Salem last Friday on the “Geology of Western Ore gon.” In his tall;, Pr. Smith cov ered especially the possibilities and difficulties of getting oil in this part of tho state. The employment agency at the V. W. C. A. Hungalow has furnished about the same amount of work for college wfimrn that it. had Inst year up to this time, affording t‘> Miss Itorntliv Thomas, secretary of the orgariir.at ion. Miss Thomas attributes Hm lnek of increase in tlie amount, of work to the poor financial situation this year which has kept many from coming to school unless they were sure of having a .job. Approximately $11000 was earned ilnring the past term through regn p Inr work gained through the Y. W. j , agency. About $70(1 was earned by temporary work. Forty-two girls were placed at regular .jobs, and HO did temporary work. More odd .jobs were taken care of last term than usual, but. there were fewer students available who wished to work for room and board. There were more demands for this sort of work than Miss i Thomas was able to fill. Part, time housework and earing | for children were the most, popular I'nieaiis of employment, though some stenographic and accompanying was" done. ] -_ Director of Newman Club Leaves Eugene Goes To Washington, D.

Ceology Assistant Gets Position in California Thomas S. Southwick, graduate assistant in geology who is working for his doctor’s degree here, left yesterday for Los Angeles where he will enter geo-physical work for the shell Oil company under the super vision of Lewis Bond.

Smith, head of the geology department, asking him to find a graduate student who was well grounded in mathematics and ' physics find liad done field work in geology, 1o take up the research I work. Geophysical work is a do- i partment of modern research' in geology that eg I Is for special train ing. It covers the use of elect ideal induction and the use of gravity in finding buried mineral deposits. Mr. Southwiek came to the geol ogy department from the t'alifornia Institute of Technology the first of this year after having completed his master's' thesis there. Mr. Hand is a brother of .1. IT.

Lohrenz Wiens, a graduate student in the University of Oregon 'last year, spent two months as sec ond clerk on a tramp steamer and is now enrolled in the University of I leidelberg. 'Ll. writing to Dr. A. P. Moore, professor of animal biology, he says, “I arrived here about three weeks early and felt as forsaken ns a chicken (poultry) on Broadway,,but a lively landlady, a few nights in cafes, and several long walks through the country soon made me feel more at home. Tin* life of the people and their philosophy is jolly interesting. “There are two tilings, though, that are able In rouse me to fight ing pitch: filthy and unreasoning diatribes on the Christian religion and slams against the, in so many ways foolish, but good old IT. S. A.” Mr. Wiens exploited that the Herman system of studying is to carry ns much work as possible, take notes on it in class, ;ind then cram in the few weeks of vacation before examination. Air. Wiens was born in Kansas, hut his parents were missionaries, so, besides being able to speak tier man, as his parents spoke that lan guage in their home, he is able to speak two different'Ohinese dialects.
