Generally unsettled on Friday with rain in west portion. Maximum temperature . 77 Minimum temperature . 45 NUMBER 12 All In Readiness for Monster Pep Parade Preceding Idaho Tilt Chuck Ree<l Urges Rooters To Wear Lids and White Shirts TO MEET AT IMPERIAL Participants to Get Choice Of Best Seats; Girls To Follow Line The big Oregon pep-parade, planned to precede the Idaho game in Portland Saturday, will get un der way from the Imperial hotel on its way to Multnomah field promptly at one o’clock Saturday afternoon, according to final plans outlined at a kick-off meeting of the rally directorate yesterday af ternoon. Lots of noise, pep, and fighting Oregon spirit will be the watch word of the Oregon rooters from the time the pep-parade forms un til the gun ending the game is fired, declares Jim Raley, chair man of the rally committee. “And we can't have lots of noise and spirit unless we have every Oregon man out for the parade,” says Chuck Reed, yell king. “And every man who comes ■should bring a rooter’s lid with him; and they will increase the effective ness and the spirit of the parade immensely.” Any students who stay away from the rally in hopes of getting the best seats at the game will be disappointed, says Bill Whitely, director of the parade activities. “Nobody will be admitted to the rooters’ section until the serpen tine has passed through the gates. Xhose in the parade will have first chance at the choice seats. Parade at 12:45 Rooters should show up at the Imperial not later than 12:45. Af ter a couple of numbers by the band, Tom Stoddard, president of the A. S. U. O., will make a short pep talk. A corps of motorcycle policemen will then lead the way south on Broadway. The band will follow them. Stoddard is to walk at the head of the serpen tine, and the rooters will fall in behind. The line of march will be south on Broadway to Morrison, than west to the field. Before going to the rooters’ section on the east side of the field, the parade will circle the field and pass before the grandstand. Will Use Siren Ken Hamaker, in charge of noise effects, has arranged to use a big fire siren during the parade and at the field. A number of bombs will also be sent up from the Ore gon side of the field. Oregon women attending the game will be seated in stands run ning from the 10 to the 40 yard lines at each end of the east side of the field, says “Doc” Robnett, assistant graduate manager, who has charge of field arrangements.

"La Casa Filipino’, New Campus Home for Boys from Philippines QNE of the most interesting, al though perhaps not so well known of the houses on the cam pus was organized recently by a group of Philipino students here. It is La Casa Filipino, and as the name implies, is the home of the Philipino men on the campus. It was organized last spring with the intention of providing a home for all Philipinos, but the location of La Casa Filipino, at 14th and University streets, has made it purely a student organization for all Philipino students here. Antonio Jimenez, house presi dent of La Casa Filipino, is the nephew of the Secretary of Pub lic Instruction in the Philippine Islands. The house manager is Lamberto Benito. The house mother, Mrs. Sairsowl, who is a sculptor and painter, maintains a studio in the house mother's apart ment there. The four hundred years of Spanish culture which the Philippines have back of them is very evident in La Casa Filipino. The spirit in which La Casa Fili pino is organized is much the same as that of the International House. It helps to satisfy the cul tural needs and provide social con tact with other University stu dents and aids the new Philippino students in adapting themselves as freshmen to University life. (Continued or. Page Three) Workshop for Drama Group Mav be Made '_ I One-Act Plays of Writing Class to be Used if Plans Mature ROOM IN ART PLANNED Idea Has Been Successful, In Other Schools Says Harris Amateur playwrights, directors, and producers of the campus will soon have a place to give their talents practical application, if present plans for a theater work shop materialize, according to Fred Harris, assistant professor in design. Mr. Harris looks forward to a reasonable degree of success for the plan, which embodies the use of one-set plays from the play writing class for production on an experimental stage, under the di rection of the class in play pro duction. “The plan has worked ,every where else it has been tried,” Mr. Harris said, “and I see no reason why it should not work here.” Scenery for the plays will be constructed by the members of the theatre workshop class, and the laboratory will probably be used as a construction center for most of the scenery used in campus productions. The new workshop, which, when completed, will be in a room of the art building former ly used as a store-house, is ex pected by Harris to be more prac tical than the present stage in Guild hall. The laboratory is planned as a workshop and not a regular theater, Mr. Harris said, and will provide an informal gath ering place for those interested in drama productions.

DEPOSIT SHOWS DEFICIT More Than S6,000 Still Charged to Student Body; Debt Less Than Last Year By REX TUSSING Editor's Note: This is the third of a series of surveys by Rex Tussing, associate editor of the Emerald, briefly outlining the di rection of student income and ex penditure through official chan nels. WHEN Richard L. Collins, uni ™ versity statistician, through Ronald "Doc" Robnett, assistant graduate manager, made avail able for me yesterday the A. S. U. O. financial report for 1928-29, even before final (though assured) approval, last week’s promised j survey of state and local expendi tures of school funds went by the boards. Last year, as for the last three years, student activities drew mare from the treasury than they put in it. Income brought for 1929, $140,426.11, and expenses took $146,525.47. This leaves a deficit of slightly over $6,000, as compared with $21,000 and $19,000 for the two years previous. Red ink vanished in 1925 and 1926.

European Peace Subject of Mez to Theta Sigma Phi Women Journalists Hear New Faculty Member At Open Meeting Speaker Explains Causes Of Economic Trouble The United States of Europe is a goal that the League of Na tions and other bodies of arbitra tion are, and shoidd continue to strive for, stated Dr. John R. Mez of the economics department in a talk last night at an open meeting held in Alumni hall, of Theta Sigma Phi, women's na tional journalism honorary. Dr. Mez explained how the dif ferences over tariffs, passports, vises, the various kinds of money, postal rates, railway systems, lan guages, immigration and emigra tion laws, and a strong patriotism coupled with traditional dislikes bring about poor economic condi tions and general misunderstand ings in Europe. He believes that an organiza tion similar to the Pan-American States will be the ultimate solu tion of European problems. Dr. Mez is a newcomer to the Oregon campus this year. He has studied extensively in Europe. Theta Sigma Phi sponsored this meeting for all women journalism majors and all members of the faculty of the school of journal ism.

World Peace Is Important, Says Speaker Rubbi Berkowitz Pleads For International Good Will Sees Hope in Kellogg Pact And MacDonald’s Visit To America That the destination of America, lies in the hands of the men and women of the university and in the future pledges that they make to a world-wide peace is the answer given by Rabbi Henry J. Berkowitz, of the Temple Beth Israel, Portland, in his address on “Whither America” at the annual pledge day assembly held yester day in McArthur Court. In this assembly, the students of the University of Oregon made a pledge to their school to uphold its ideals to the best of their abil ities. The pledge of the university was given to them by Governor Patterson, and they answered by singing the pledge song. “The old isolation doctrine of the United States is dead,” Rabbi Berkowitz declared in answering hi3 question “Whither America,” in connection with America and in ternational relations. “There is no such thing as isolation. The world belongs to us and we to the world.” Isolation Gone When Ramsey McDonald, Brit ish prime minister, can speak, he [ explained, in a single night to the entire world, reaching every cos mopolitan city and each small vil lage, it is very evident that isola tion is a thing of the past. Rabbi Berkowitz believes that a new and glorious patriotism has been' sounded by the adoption of the Kellogg pact. National honor has been made true, the decency of human nature at the base has been proved, and a new loyalty to one's country that enables him to be patriotically in favor of peace has been developed through the creation of this great non-war pact among the nations of the world. The new language of the nations has been sounded to him in the words of Ramsay MacDonald "I am willing to take the risks of peace.” The rabbi considers the Kellogg pact as one of the greatest achievements of the day. “The 78 words of this pact,” he said, “should be memorized by ev ery schoolboy as the words of the Gettysburg address and those of the preamble to the Declaration of Independence are. The day that commemorates the signing of the pact should be set aside as a national holiday.” U. S. Helps Peace United States, explained the speaker, has had a part in the de veloping of peace as a world wide ideal through the splendid work of both Ex-president Wilson and President Hoover. Rabbi Berko witz was introduced to the stu dents by President Arnold Ben nett Hall. The band played an opening number while the students assem bled, after which the Rev.

All ye who are weary and sore distraught with the trials of owning a “cam pus car," “heap,” “boat," “can," or what-have-you, here is your big chance to get something out of the tub besides repair bills and grief. Believe it or not, a prize of $10 in General gasoline script is to be given to the “most character istic Oregon car” which appears in the rally parade preceding the Idaho game in Portland Saturday afternoon. And “most character istic,” you understand, means that nothing is barred. Topless bodies, sagging springs, broken wind shields, paint-smeared tonneaus— anything goes. The more Oregon sentiment smeared around in yel low and green paint, the better your chances. In addition to the $10 script prize, which is being offered by the General Petroleum corpora tion, producers of “Violet Ray” gasoline, a second prize of 10 gal lons of “Violet Ray" will be given to the owner of the second best “crate” by the Ashworth Service station, 11th and Olive streets up on his return to Eugene.
