Side JJnes Captain Mason May Start . Stanford Prepares for Oregon Oregon Spirit Awakens . . . . By Harry Van Dine Today is the first big day of the season in coast football and our fighting Webfoots are way down in Palo Alto, ready to make their bid for conference honors against the powerful Stanford Cardinals. It is estimated that there will be two hundred loyal, cheering Ore gon fans in the Stanford stadium at game time, and this organized cheering should instill even more fight in the Oregon players. Mc Ewans’s men have a great task on their hands, for they are meeting a team that is considered one of the most powerful in the country. # * * Several telegrams have been sent to the Webfoot team, and will be read to the men just be fore game time. This prac tice of sending traveling teams wires should be highly commended as it carries the thought to the men that the mem bers of the student body are sup porting them until the final gun finishes the struggle. The huge pep rally started the team off in the right spirits, and the tele grams are again reminding them of their obligations to the student body—to fight to the very end. * * * Students in this day and age little appreciate the wonders of • modern inventions that have made it possible literally to trans fer the field of play to the Eugene campus. You have guessed it we mean the gridgraph. Every loyal Oregon student in Eugene should attend the gridgraph this afternoon in McArthur Court. Every detail of the game will be brought to this magical board, with complete information of every play, the name of the man carrying the ball, the name of the man who tackles him, and even the path the ball travels. * * * The gridgraph has been perma nently installed in the Igloo, and the Order of the “O” will again sponsor the showings. The usual custom of having dancing be tween halves and for an hour after the game has ended will again be carried out. Results from other important games will be announced by Johnnie Ander son, the head man of the show. A nominal admission fee will be charged to defray the expense of the leased wire necessary to run the board. SI * * While Oregon is tackling Stan ford, Oregon State will pit her strength against the strong Tro jans of Southern California. If you will remember, these same Trojans ran rough shod over the now'est member of the conference, the Uclas, last Saturday and and piled up the second ltlgest score in the history of Troy, 70 to 0. While the Uclas are ad mittedly a weak team, Southern Cal must have a powerful combin ation to run up a score like that. The Corvallis Institution will have a very busy afternoon try ing' to fathom the tricky plays of (’each Howard Jones’ charges. The Beavers are not rated as one of the powerful elevens on the coast this year, and they will miss the services of the roly-poly How ard Maple against the Trojans., Their best bet, Cecil Sherwood, has been on the injured list of late and it is doubtful if he will start the game this afternoon, liowdy Kerr, who showed well against the California Aggies, is booked to take Sherwood's posi tion at halfback. * * » The Beavers have one man who is among the cream of Pacific Coast wingmen, in Russel St riff. , He was late in reporting for prac tice and was somewhat under weight, but late press dispatches have stated he, is again exhibiting his old form. Chuck Stout, tackle, and Bob Geddes, center, are two oilier linemen who can be counted upon to give a good account of them elves. Big Chief Thompson, the husky fullback and guard will also probably start on the line. Coach Sehissler has been having trouble developing linemen to take the plaits of those de parted via the graduating route. * * w Besides Maple, the Orange mentor lost Jule Carlson and Vein Eilers, a fine pair of guards, and Cotton Whitlock, end. He will have his hands lull finding cap able men to fill their shoes. Sclus sler seems to have the knack of developing new men in a short time, but his task is almost im possible with so many vacancies in hli first line of defense, How - Harry Van Dine, Editor Joe Brown, Asst. Editor Estiil Phipps, George Erickson, Phil Cogswell, Jack Burke, Dave Wilson, Fred* Elliot, Hal Waffle, Beth Salway Football Game To Be Shown 4 ByGridgraph Students Have Board In Best of Shape for Contest Plays Will Start at 2:30; Dance to be No Date Next to actually seeing the Oregon-Stanford football game will be the gridgraph at McAr thur Court, Saturday afternoon at 2:30. The program is spon sored by the Order of the “O”. Johnny Anderson and a crew of willing students have just put the apparatus in excellent condi tion and it is now ready to re-act the game as it is played at Palo Alto. In addition to the regular report there will be dancing be tween halves and for one hour after the game. The music will be furnished by Johnny Robin son’s orchestra. Scores of all the principal foot-, ball games, including those in the Hast, will be given by the an nouncers. Every angle of the game will be faithfully trans ferred to the large electric score board. The team which has the ball, the number of downs, the yardage to be gained, the man carrying the ball, the type of run made, the penalties, and minutes to play will be given. In fact everything that happens on the playing field will be given. The gridgraph affair will be strictly no date. The admission price will be 25 cents. This is to pay for the expenses of the spec ial leased wire and the orchestra. A large turnout of students is expected as this Stanford game is one of the most important of the whole season for Oregon. For those who have never heard of the gridgraph before, it is a large scoreboard with a diagram of a football field upon it. A small electric light is used as the football and it moves up and down the field as the plays are made. On each side of the board are the lists of players and other data. Electric lights flash above the team which has the ball and opposite the man who is carrying it. What he does is also given by means of small electric light flashing over phrases which describe the play. The scoreboard has been placed in one end of McArthur Court so that everyone in the hall may see it. There will be plenty of seats for all. Not only Oregon students are invited to attend, but local towns people are cordially invited to come to the affair. Odd Jobs Available Al Employment Office Many chances for odd jobs are now coming into the University employment bureau at the Y. M. C. A. including such work as put ting in wood, tending lawns and the like, according to Mrs. Char lotte Donnelly, head of the bu reau. Any student wishing to do such wbik shoidd communicate with Mrs. Donnelly at once. Her offices are in the campus Y. it. C. A. Applications are also still open for regular jobs which give board and in some Instances, rooming privileges. All such positions are filled at the present time but it is probable that more will be available as soon as a canvass of the town is made, according to Mrs. Donnelly. She wishes all students whose applications are already in to turn in their sched ules and addresses if they have not already done so. ever, we wish the Beavers the best of luck in their endeavors to to uphold the football name of the state in sunny California. • « * This will be a big day in Cali fornia for the state of Oregon, with her two best football teams meeting two of the best in the southland. There is more interest in the Stanford-Oregon game than the ft. S. O.-Oregon State game, but we ll wager the Oolis ■um in Los Angeles will have a good crowd in it when the open ing whistle blows because Oregon State has made a name for it sell by playing a lighting, head.- up game at all times, i — Ex-Frosh Prexy Back From Trip W ith Baseball Nine in Australia *{**{* H* H* *{• Mb*u iugh Returns to Campus After Barnstorm Tour; Games Attract Huge Crowds A S ONE of America’s sporting ball chasers, Brian Mim naugh, last year’s freshman class president, has been touring Aus tralia, Honolulu and the South Sea Islands for the last three months. He returned to the campus Thursday, bronzed, athletic, and all agog with the opportunities of Australia. Mimnaugh traveled with the Multnomah Amateur Athletic club of Portland, playing an in field position. Of the 17 games played, the team won 13. Game New in Australia ’’The teams in Sidney aren’t as good as they are here,” Mr. Mim naugh said, “because it is just a new game to them. The first time they saw it professionally played was in 1914 when John McGraw took the Chicago White Sox on a tour of Australia playing against the New York Giants. “Last year they played Stan ford, and I imagine that an Amer ican team will go over every year, an amateur team, that is. They don't have professional games. “They seemed very much in terested in baseball. Why! in one day we played before a 15,000 grandstand!” Mr. Mimnaugh ex claimed. “They have much larg er crowds than we do in the states.” People Very Hospitable Mimnaugh says that he would like to go back to Australia to morrow, especially because he likes the people so well. “They arc the most hospitable people I ever saw,” he said. “They treated us just as if we were kings. That’s a fact. They would get us anything we wanted. “I think that Australia is the land of opportunity,” Mr. Mim naugh said, growing extremely enthusiastic. “Things aren’t developed down there the way they should be, in a manufacturing way, that is. “Gee, the Australians are won derful sports, but they aren’t much on the go-getting style of business.” Mr. Mimnaugh went on to speak of the difference in the slang used by the Australians. “Everything with them,” he said, “is 'right-o, ch'eerio, and good-o’; they say ‘ta-ta’ for good by, and ‘dinkey-die’ for all right or fine; ‘tout-right’ for ‘oh, abso lutely’; and then for ‘good’ they say ‘bonsor.’ ” UNIVERSITY LIBRARY EMPLOYS 40 STUDENTS l Oli PART TIME hoo-inninr*- nf v;r .sixty jjuupiu iinpwjtu wj University of Oregon library, forty are undergraduate students working from two to four hours a day, according to M. H. Doug lass. head librarian. Outside of those few full time workers whom it is absolutely necessary to keep the library em ployees are all students selected witli regard to experience from applications made at various the school year, stated Mr. Doug lass. There are several departments in the library system, each headed by a capable member of that di vision who is responsible to Mr. Douglass. This plan finds favor with the head librarian rather lhan a system of assistant librari ans whose duties might entail | more than the heading of one de j partment. HANDBALL MOST POPULAR SPORT If the records of the physical education department can be tak en as a true indication, handball is rapidly coming to the front as the most popular activity offered in that department. Heretofore somewhat of a rainy day sport, handball is being played by al most double the number daily, than at this time last year, in spite of the fine weather prevail ing. To facilitate the use of the courts and to secure the maxi mum of use from them, the phy sical education department has arranged to handle reservations for the courts in advance, by tel ephone. The department stipu lates, however, that reservations be made the same day the stu dent Intends to play. The hours available are from two to three; from three to three-forty; from | three-forty to four-twenty and from four-twenty to five o'clock, j To relieve the congested condi tion of tHe courts, the depart ment announces that instruction is being given between three and five every afternoon except Sat urday. in boxing, wrestling, fenc ing, golf, tumbling anil swimming. With this variety of activities offered it is hoped that all may be accommodated. Night Football j vLI> grads continnnally lament tin' passing ot sonic tradition of college which was the main stay of their youth. Now come powerful floodlights to illuminate stadium fields for football games How do the old boys feel about it anyway? They love to recount tlm glor ious games in which their team by superb playing, and often phy sical help from the cheering sec tion won over the opposition. "Rut * he next year on their field was different," they will add. Yes, things ajo changing in our college football circles. No longer is an athlete openly paid ten dol lns a game; rather he winds an eigh.t day clock at eighty dollars pet and old Alumnus who whoo ped it up for Alma Mater glor iously iu his youth come; back after the day's work and there i before him appears the laid in a j hla^c ot lights.

Prink Callison will have his charges out on the varsity field going through the same routine work of moulding a formidable football machine. Callison has worked up one of the most enviable reputations of any mentor in the annals of prep school football in this state by combining exceptional ability with determination and hard I work. | His same characteristics have I accompanied him to this campus and so he will be out with his men drilling the science of the gridirort success into them al though the minds of everyone else will be on the Oregon-Stanford fray every minute of the day. It is very likely that even frosh practice today will be a rather listless affair as Callison, his as j sistant coaches, and all his grid j artists will probably be occupying I their minds with thoughts of Kitz ® miller, Fleishhacker, Stadelman, 1 Frentrup and all the rest of the ! participants of the big game to the exclusion of all else.

Callison had his A squad working on a new pass formation to round out his system of plays, but the first string lineup was about the same as that Thursday.
