i Gives Advice
To Teachers
Excellent Opportunity
For Argumentation
Experts, Says Horner
x Knowledge of Forensics Is
Of Value to Instructors
"Students intending to tcacli arc
missing an excellent opportunity to
gel better positions with higher
, _ salaries when they
' don’t train them
Selves to coai'li
an extra - curricu
lar activity, sucli
. as (1 e 1) a t e or
f drama,” said J,
K. Horner, debate
coach, yesterday
He thinks that if
intending teachers
would take a
course ia argu
mentation and de
(liil hot make aiiy
J. K. Horner of the d e b a t e
j teams, they could
, ; coach forensics in a high school.
“If students are qualified to
coach any extra-curricular activity
they are more likelv to get a posi
tion,” confirmed Ida May Pope,
secretary of the appointment bureau
1 ipt the school of education, “because
most of our positions here are tied
up with that sort of thing.” Miss
Pope thinks that higher salaries are
commanded by those who teach
drama and debate as specialties in
tke larger high schools, but that
the ability to coach extra-curricular
activities will not raise the salaries
attached lo jobs in the smaller high
schools. Teachers who can coach
debate or drama, however, she said,
are more likely to get the better
positions.
Dr. Ilieks Introduces
Novel Game of Chess
Krite^spiel Is New Indoor
Pastime, Says DeCon
Kriegspiol, :i game of chess in
wliieli tlio two players sit back to
back ami play without seeing the
positions of the opponent’s men,
was introduced oil the campus last
Wednesday night at a meeting of
the Mathematics club at the home
iof Professor K. hi. DeCou. Professor
T)eOou and Dr. D. B. Davis were
the two opponents in this first game,
while l)r. II. Hicks held the third
hoard and directed the game. Dr.
Hicks had formerly played krieg
spiel at the California Institute of
Technology.
Although there is a great deal of
guessing in this new way Of playing
chess, it is really a great indoor
sport, according to Professor De
Cou, who came out the loser in a
close game. With practice, a person
can become quite an accurate
guesser.
The person who holds the (bird
chess board had all the chess men
tor both sides oil it, and moves them
according to the moves of the two
players. He tells the players when
it is their turn to move and the
consequences of their moves.
Kriegspiel’s popularity is spread
ing and Seems to offer a now diver
sion for chess players, according to
Professor DeCou.

As Water Line Spouts
, Shades of Yellowstone park! Not
! many students know that Eugene
'was treated to a geyser such as
I some people travel thousands of
I miles to see.
Yesterday morning between !> and
Id o’clock, a city water main valve,
; located at Ninth and Alder streets,
right beside the railroad tracks,
blew out and spouted a gevser-like
! column of water as high as a tele
i phone pole.
| There ’wits no danger of flood or
: water damage, however, as the water
seeped away through some subter
, rah can channel almost as fast as it
I gushed from the drain.
Damaged a week ago when an
errant antoist ran off tlio road and
struck the cap, tire valve had boon
leaking over since. Whether from
ignorance or neglect, the leak had
not been attended to and so it was
necessary for the largo main to bo
cut off for a short time while the
vdlve was repaired.
By 10:d0 the hole had boon
plugged and Eugene’s first and only
geyser was extinct.

Gentlemen:
The tobacco sampler, yon sent mo
have been received, and they are great.
I If you can picture in your mind the
i lonesomeness of a traveling man in a
! small town on a rainy night, not a
friend in a hundred miles, nothing to
do and no place to go:
1 That was the position I was in when
your samples of Edgeworth came. It
was like a voice from above when I
opened the package and got the old
pipe steaming.
I have smoked various brands of
tobacco for the past fifteen years, but
never in my life have I found a to
bacco at any price that will equal
Edgeworth. It does not bite the
tongue, and a beautiful aroma follows.
With the good old friend pipe and a
can of Edgeworth you can dream of
the rainbow’s end.
Please count me in the future as an
Edgeworth booster.
Very truly,

“Work Fast Like Me Al”—
“One of my moments is like another man's
week-end.” And moments count when "we.
gotta greet ’em, grab ’em. goal ’em and
go.” Which is what, happens when you’re
in the Navy and you don't wan! to miss
a good thing like Clara Bow. When “The
Elect \s In!” get going you “lmrd-to-get
babies” and gel a “look at a guy with a
past.” Even it your “Alpine physique”
isn't so much' you'll add a lew inches to
your “girdle” when Clara Bow and the
boy friend get going on (leorge Marion’s
titles in “The Elect’s in!” Clara's got
everything. As Eddie says he “never seen
a kid nO completely equipped.” End Bri
die's no slouch either, as he advises himself
“Bet a load of Briggs, the vampire of the
Vermont.” So all in, “The Elect’s In!”
and ready to land a load of laughs.
