Post Season
Games Signed
For Webfoots
Tilts With St. Mary’s
And Hmvii Fill Grid
Schedule for Fall
By JOE PIGNEY
Football, a bit out of season, lias
forged to tlio front to temporarily
shove aside baseball, track, tennis
and golf. The momentary flash of
the gridiron intruding upon the
sprijig sports comes with the an
nouncement of two more games for
Oregon next fall. The two games
scheduled by Jack W. Benefiel,
graduate manager, although Tot con
ference tilts, will be of major im
portance.
Both these contests will be played
after the close of the regular Pa
cific coast conference schedule
against Oregon State at Eugene,
November. 16. The first will be
with the University of Hawaii,
which Oregon visited and won from
at Honolulu last December, and the
second with St. Mary’s of Oakland,
California.
* * *
Tlic drawing powers of both St.
Mary’s and Hawaii is unquestion
able. Tiie people of Portland, where
the Hawaii game is to be played on
November 2d, already have ex
pressed their enthusiasm for the
contest. The Portland Chamber of
Commerce has recognized the game
for greater value than just football
and is backing it heartily.
St. Mary’s is one of the most
popular football teams on the coast.
Against California, Stanford and
Ti. S. C. the Saints draw capacity
crowds. Oregon, with the .prospects
of an even stronger team than the
one last fall, should find a real
money maker in tho St. Mary’s
struggle.
"While the titit itself will draw
well, the fact that it has been sched
uled for Thanksgiving day adds to
its attraction. Thanksgiving, as far
as sport is concerned, is tradition
ally a football day. People who
* would not go to see a football game
any other time will go at Thanks
giving.
While on the subject of football,
it may be interesting to look at Ore
gon’s possibilities for 1!)2S). Spring
football, after a pause between the
winter term and the spring term,
was resumed yesterday. Nearly 45
men turned out. For the most part,
the turnout was of linemen, and it
is with the linemen that Captain
John J. McEvvan will spend most
of his time.
The Webfoots should be strong at
renter. Besides Stadelman there is
Erie Forsta, star on last season’s
frosh eleven. Stadelman, with liis
two years of varsity experience, lias
tiie inside track but the job will
not be without competition. George
Chappell, who earned a letter last
fall, probably will be back in school
when tho football season opens.
Marshall Shields is tiie only vet
eran guard. Jerry Lillie, reserve
last season, and Cy West, from the
yearling team, are the* outstanding
candidates for tiie position left va
> cant by the graduation of Merrill
Hagan. George Christenson and
Austin Colbert probably will win
back their positions at tackles, but
it will not be without a fight.
Irvin Schulz and Pat Lucas, both
out for varsity for the first time,

Two numbers, of a different sort
than have been presented before on

ing to Martha Hill, instructor in

to an early sonata, “David and

charm of realistic music of that
period. One group will dance with
out music.

STUDE’S
PROGRESS. ..
A Satire : By Wilfred Brown
Ho had progressed scarcely a
score of steps when Knight came
running after him once more:
KNIGIIT: Avaunt, Frosh. Darest
thou violate the most sacred statute
of the code of tlie llappv Land of
Collegia? And once again he smote
Student with his stave.
STUDENT: 0 good sir, why
strikest thou me when I harm no
one? I am merely a weary pilgrim
enroute to the Golden City of Edu
cation. Wherein, I prithee, do I
violate the code of this land?
KNIGHT: What? Knowest thou
not that one must be twelve months
a pilgrim here before he may wear
an hat Knowest thou not? .
STUDENT: But good sir, the way
is long and the sun beateth fiercely
upon me. How couldst it harm any
one were I to wear mine hat?
KNIGHT: Argue not. The law
was writ by the first pilgrim who
ever entered into the Land of Col
legia and hath been since enforced
from generation to generation. It
is not for such as thee to question.
Argue not hut give unto me thy hat.
So student surrendered unto
Knight his hat and wearily his way
again. And he saw that the road
did make a great turn, whereupon
he set himself to cut across the
shady green meadow.

Oregana Drive
For Final Count
Will Begin Soon
Betty Beam, Boh Miller
To Handle Sales in
Halls, Houses
Filial Campaign to Give All
Chance to Get Book
A filial Oregana subscription cam- :
paign will lie hold on Wednesday \
and Thursday of this week. Jim
Raley, circulation manager, has re
appointed Betty Beam to assist him
in the women’s houses, and Bob
Miller to handle the men’s.
According to John Nelson, Ore
gano manager, the purpose of the
drive will be twofold; first, to give
any students who have not sub
scribed before a chance to get a
book, and, second, to check up on
any errors that there may bo in the
circulation lists,
New Students on Campus
‘•'Many students are new to the
campus this quarter,” said Nelson,'
“and others have refrained from
ordering their books because of un
certainty as to whether or not it
would be out on time. Now that a
Junior Week-end delivery is as
sured these people should have a
last opportunity to subscribe as no
extra books will be printed.”
The names of members in each
house who have not subscribed will
be given to the Oregana representa
tives who will make the final check
up. One member of each house go
ing over 100 per cent will receive
an Oregana free, while the hhuse
will receive a second copy as well
as its engraving plate.

High over the snowy peaks of the
Throe Sisters ration of the Cascade
range in a big .monoplane, is the ad
venturous flight planned by Amos
Berg, camera-explorer, and George
Godfrey, head of the university pub
lic relations bureau. The two men
probably will leave within the next

six-passenger- 'fra vela ir no-nop la no
propelled by a Wright whirlwind
motor to take motion pictures of

and word article .for the National
Geographic muga/.ine, illustrated
with over two hundred photographs,
which describes his adventurous
voyage down the river made famous
.'to years ago by the gold seekers
as the “Trail of ’98.”
This will be Godfrey’s first flight
over the Cascades and Burg’s sec
ond as he flew over the Three Sis
tors last year witli Dave Langinack
on tlie same mission. The two men
are desirous of obtaining a reel of
motion pictures that will show the
peaks of the Cascades from the air.
About half of the film will be sent

Koke Announces Sum
At Affair Attended by
Many Eugenians
Students Enter and Give
Impromptu Rally
By fcLETA McKENNON
With a grand total of $ 1 2.”,'!.oil,
of which $10,000 was collected in
ono day, tlio Eugene (lift Campaign
for tlu- university camo to a vic
torious conclusion. Tlio announce
niont was made by .T. II. Koko, drive
chairman, at a banquet last night
attended by several hundred Eugene
people. The goal, as set, was $1."0,
000, and was considered a tremen
dous undertaking. The success of
the drive makes possible the con
struction of the Campbell Memorial
Fine Arts building, and the clear
ing up of obligations of the former
gift campaign.
Gerlinger Accepts Subscription
The subscription of the business
men was accepted by Mrs. Irene II.
Gerlinger, member of the board of
regents. Credit for much of the
success of the drive was given by
the speakers to Mr. .T. Koko, who
worked so courageously and per
sistently as leader.
Early during the banquet students
of the university, hearing of the
success of the drive, organized an
impromptu rally and burst in upon
the gathering, enthusiastically shout
ing their lustiest college yells. Ap
preciation of the students for the
generosity of the Eugene business
men was expressed in a. short speech
by Joe M.cKeown, president, of the
student body. A telegram of con
gratulations was received from
President A. B. Hall, who is at
present resting in California.
$80,000 Gifts in Treasury
Completion of 1hc drive added
enough to tin' Fine Arts fund so
that advantage can be taken of the
$80,000 loan offered by a Eugeni'
citizen. A total of $80,000 in cash
from gifts and pledges is already ill
llu> treasury of the Alumni Holding
company, end with about thin
amount in iddition in no .11 .-led
pledges, it is felt safe to atari im
mediate construction on the first
unit.
The building as described by Mrs.
'Irene H. Gerlinger at the banquet,
will become no art center for the
entire state. The memorial court,
placed directly back of the main
structure, will be a thing of rare
beauty, and one of I lie most dis
tinctive features of the new build
ing. In the center of the'court will
be a placid pool, at one end will be
a bust of President Campbell, in
various places will be placed objects
of art made by students and faculty
of the art school.
