Music Honorary
Unified, Ready
For Year’s Work
Phi Bela Divided Members
Into Groups Which Will
Perform for Each Other
A musical organization, Phi Eeta,
which was formed last term and
4vho.se purpose is to unify all stu
dents who are interested in music,
is now fully organized and plans to
meet every two weeks. The recently
elected officers are: Hugh Miller,
president; Roberta Wilcox, vice-pres
ident. and Prudence Spight, secre
tary and treasurer.
This organization was formed not
only for the benefit of those ma
joring in music, but also Tor the
benefit of those students who are
interested in some particular instru
ment, but would otherwise lack the
opportunity of developing their tal
ent.
The organization is divided into
discussion groups of ten members
each, a leader being chosen for each
group. At each meeting a different
student performs before the rest up
on whatever instrument lie chooses,
the piano, organ, and violin being
tin' principal favorites. This is to
give the student experience of per
forming before others, and also to
give him (he opportunity of receiv
ing friendly criticism and helpful
suggestions upon his work.
In the spring term, those mem
^"■rs of the organization who exhibit
the most talent will be selected to
present a student recital, to which
everyone will be invited.
Raising of Minor Sports Held
Wrong By Coach Hayward
(Continued from Pape One)
fmil every athlete a chance to com
pete in some sport or miotlier, equal
izing nil college sports is tlie natural
result.”
E. F. Abercrombie, swimming
roach, smiled and said prophetically:
"II had to came! Why not lead
awhile instead of following?”
Harold Kelley, speaking for the
Order of the “O” in the absence of
Lester Johnson, president, said:
“The Order of the ‘O’ is rather di
vided over the question. However,
1 believe the runeensus of opinion
to l*e heartily, in disfavor of any
distribution too wholesale. That is,
requirements should be well sped
fied and difficult enough in attain
^ incut so that a minor sports man in
winning a letter would, of a neces
sity, be outstanding.”
Bill Eddy, being an Order of the
“O” man and a member of the stu
dent council, gives his opinion thus:
“I think it is a movement made
without sufficient cuiisideration. I
believe if they had looked further
into the matter before passing the
resolution, the result might have
been otherwise.”
Joliu Anderson, Oliver of the ‘O’
man, was “out;” Captain John J.
Ale.Ewan, head football coach, had
game to a show; Professor Herbert
0. Howe, Oregon representative in
the Pacific coast conference, was at
tending a basketball game. Presi
dent Hgli preferred not to give his
opinion.
Earning Pin Money by Trapping

time by trapping on the McKenaie river. Left to right: Ed Thurston,

Van Nice Spurns Reporter; Refuses
To Tell Decorations for Frosh Glee
Gene Tunuey, Lindbergh and
Strongheart may by tougher sub
jects for Interviews than Bob Van
Nice, but the reporter doubts it.
Van Nice is one of the green-cap
boys on the campus. He is also
chairman of decorations for the
Frosh Glee that is to be staged a
week from Saturday. 4 ml more
than that, he spent all last summer
touring Europe.
.So she (the reporter) got the
ebullient idea that Bob ought to be
a good interviewee on the subject
of the frosh bust.
Surely memories of a whole sum
mer browsing through sun-mellowed
Italian towns, eobblestoned French
villages and hedge-dotted meadows
of England would give anyone half
a dozen ideas for decorating us
many Igloos!
So Bob was approached. Maybe
she expected a roseate outburst of
glowing word-pictures about the, in
spiring beauty of Europe. Maybe
she did and maybe she didn’t.
But what she got was: “I should
say not. D«i’t put anything like
that in the Emerald—and say, don’t
you dare say anything at all about
me in the Emerald; 1 never did any
thing like this before, and don’t you
dare say anything about my going
to Europe. If you think you’re
■going to learn how we’re fixiu’ the
Igloo up, you’re mistaken, and I
don’t know anything about any
thing, and I’m busy . .
. The reporter still thinks Bub is
a gentleman.
Appendicitis and Tonsilitis Lurk
5Round Romance Language Profs
Members of the romahee language
faculty arc beginning to wonder if
there, might not be something pe
culiar to their profession which is
detrimental to health. During the
fall term ami the first three weeks
of the winter term nine of the de
partment’s 12 instructors have been
ill at some time, several of them
seriously.
The latest victim of the bad luck
epidemic is Miss Christina Crane
who was operated on. for appen
dicitis last (Saturday morning. Miss
Crane was ill with influenza during
the epidemic last fall, And will not
be able to meet her French classes
again until spring term.
Early last summer doctors told
Mr. Buel, who was an instructor in
Spanish hist year, that he was ill
with tuberculosis and sent him to
New Mexico. Early last fall some
other doctors told him that he was
not suffering from tuberculosis, but
from appendicitis, and since then
he has had four operations in Den
ver. A recent letter from him to
Dr. Bowen, head of the romance
language department, says that he
is now recovering.
During the first week of fall
term classes Mr. Lcgrando was
stricken with appendicitis, and was
seriously ill in a local hospital for
a number of weeks.
Then came November, and with it
the influenza. Miss Pipes, Miss
Crane, and Mr. Centeno were unable
to meet their classes for several
days.
The attention of the department
has now shifted to tonsil operations.
Dr. Bowen, Miss Thompson, Mr.
Itowbotham have had their tonsils
removed recently, and Mr. Belling
is slated to lose his before the week
is out.
Dr. Bowen, realizing that gloom
will do no good, is inclined to view
the succession of accidents in a
'humorous light. “When school opens
next full,” lie says, “we hope that
there will not lie a single appendix
or tonsil left in the department. If
we keep up our present rate of re
moval we should reach otu' goal long
before that time.”
Mr. Howell, Mr. Thomas, and Mr.
Clorun have as yet escaped any ail
ment. However, they are expected
to uphold the honor of the depart
ment with cliiekenpox, abcessed
teeth, falling hair, broken arches or
the like before the end of the school
year.
President Once Stable Agent
To Pay College Expenses

my expenses, and to save enough to
put myself through the first year
of the University of Chicago law
school. Of course I had to be eco
nomical. 1 couldn’t afford a
‘steady’ until my senior year, but
i still have her.”
Hero on (he University of Oregon
campus there are several hundred
students who are following the ex
ample of President Hall by holding
regular positions while attending
the university, earning thereby all
or part of their expenses.
One hundred and thirty-five men
are working 'regularly under the
supervision of Mrs. Charlotte Don
nely, employment secretary for men,
and 1)13 women are registered with
Miss Dorothy Thomas at the V. W.
C. A. Bungalow. During the fall
term of the present school year the
men regularly employed earned a
lolal of .+1 1,804, while those doing
odd jobs through the Y. M. C. A.
added $15250 to the sum. The wom
en under Miss Thomas earned $15045,

j C. A.
The jobs held by University of
! Oregon students are varied and al
| most innumerable. Plaining board
and room by washing dishes, wait
i ing on tables, or stoking furnaces
; is probably the most popular of po
I sitions. PI very living organization
j on the eaminis employs two or more
i students, besides the house manag
! ers, and some students earn their
j living in private homes, hotels, hos
} pitals, or restaurants.
Clerking in stores furnishes oeeu
1 pat ions for a great many students
: of the Oregon campus, as docs work
i in the university library, secretarial
positions and so forth. Many girls
earn their way by curing for
children.
Then there are the more unusual
occupations. Like President Hall,
j a number of students earn money
by corresponding for Eugene, Port
laud, and some out-of-state news-'
papers. Agents for livery stables
would probably have poor business,
but each of the Eugene laundries
and cleaning establishments employs
an agent in each of the living or
ganizations of the campus.
Students Are Watchmen
Several students are employed
either regularly or occasionally as
night watchmen in the power and
gas plants of the city, and at least
one spends his spare time reading
meters for tho Pin gene water board.
A number of students earn money
by their musical accomplishments, j
playing in orchestras at dances and
entertainments, and one is the man
ager of a danco orchestra at a, pa
| viliou in Douglas county.
One student runs a linotype ma
chine every night at tho University
i press. Two enterprising young fel
lows sold advertising on notebook
file:}, which they distributed free •
among the students. The collections
| of bills, bad and otherwise, furnish
! es employment for a number of stu
dents, as it did to President Hall.
Many Grading Papers
Two score or so students earn .
1 part of their way by grading the
papers of their less-brilliant- com
rades. One clips university news
from state papers for the publicity
department, and another files the
papers that come daily to the jour
nalism library.
It seems to be about tlie same to
day as it was in the days when Dr.
- Arnold Bennett Hall was an under
graduate. A . student who really
wants a college education is not
hampered by such things as finan
cial restrictions.

Callison was a team-mate of Baz
