McEWAN’S MEN AFTER HUSKY HIDE
First Day Oregana Sales Pass Half-Way Mark
1,323 Books
Is Solicitors
Big Record
Eight Houses Report Quota
Of 100 Per Cent Within
First Seven Hours
AIRPLANE RIDES WON
Alpha Beta Chi Is First to
t Turn in Complete List;
Workers Spurred on
More than thirteen hundred
Oregana subscriptions sold in the
first seven hours of solicitation
was the record made by canvass
ers yesterday between 1 p. m.
and 7 p. m. in the first day of
the yearbook’s campaign towards
a goal of 2,500. This is over fifty
per cent, and two days yet to go.
As the house and section chair
men gathered at the Sigma Chi
house last night to make their
daily report, they were continually
announcing, “Our house over 100
per cent.” Eight houses, five of
them men’s, turned in complete
lists at the meeting last night.
Alpha Beta Chi was first, having
completed their roll by about 5
o’clock. Cal Bryan did the cam
paigning for them.
Psi Kappa Follows
' Psi Kappa’s representative, Ken
neth Jette, came next, turning in
his complete list. Next of the full
quota houses was Pi Phi, Mary
Agnes Hunt. The others were:
Kappa Alpha Theta, Marian
Camp; Alpha Gamma Delta,
Beryle Harrah; Theta Chi, Jack
Baker; Sigma Alpha Epsilon,
Larry Wiggins; and Bachelordon,
Don Carver. All these represent
atives were awarded tickets for a
free ride with Hobi Airways; two
rides going to Cal Bryan for be
ing the first in chalking up a
complete house.
Exact Figure 1,323
Thirteen hundred and twenty
three books was the exact figure
for the day, this being divided,
696 to the men’s houses, and 627
for the women. This only added
to the incentive of the women
workers, who were also two houses
behind in signing up complete
houses.
The drive will continue tomor
row and Friday, and with such a
( fine start, there is little doubt
that the goal will be reached by
then.
All workers will meet tonight
at 7:20 at the Bachelordon house,
one of the houses which met its
quota during the first day.
Another group of prizes in the
form of airplane rides is being
offered today to the workers.
These consist of free airplane rides
to all house committeemen who
reach their goal by tonight’s meet
ing. Rides are also in store for
the man and woman section chair
men who turn in the largest per
centage of their full quota at the
end of the campaign. Two rides
will go to anyone who signs up

Men's Employment Director Is
Gratified by Success of Work
“The greatest joy of my work
is when a student comes in and
tells me that he has but a few
dollars on which to go to school,
and I am able to place him in a
position to get his education,”
said Mrs. Charlotte Donnelly, sec
retary of housing and employment
for men, with headquarters at the
University Y. M. C. A. “Some
times, but not often, a little en
couragement from the office is
necessary. I have in mind no fail
ures of our men who have worked
their way through the university.
When they are out of college they
are ready to meet the world, and
are always successful.”
Mrs. Donnelly has been at the
Campus Y. M. C. A. for nine
years, coming from Worcester col
lege, Ohio, after the war, that she
might be near her son Harold,
who was then employed at the
Y. M. C. A. as secretary and as
student secretary for Oregon and
Idaho. This necessitated his be
ing out of the office much of the
time, and Mrs. Donnelly begged
him to let her come and answer
the telephone. The idle life of
staying at home was irksome to
her, and she was glad to do some
thing. The advisory board asked
her to stay, that the Y. M. C. A.
might have the influence of a
woman in the Hut. “There was
little pay, then, and I had no
helper. At the end of the year

Huskies Doomed
To Take Cellar at
Saturday’s Game
Cougars Down Washington
Oregon Favored
To Win Fray
University of Washington, Seat
tle.— (P.I.P.)—With their last
bQpe of establishing themselves as
dfll6 of the ranking elevens of the
coast smashed in a 20 to 13 de
feat by the Washington State Cou
gars at Pullman last week, the
University of Washington Huskies
returned to their home field today
sadly the under-dogs for the com
ing game with Oregon here next
Saturday.
For the second successive week
the Huskies have taken a confer
ence beating and their stock has
sunk in proportion. On the other
hand Oregon pounded Idaho’s
famed squad for a 34-7 victory last
Saturday and they assumed there
by a commanding position among
northwest schools.
Due to the fact that they took
another hard drubbing before they
had fully recovered from the one
administered by U. S. C., the Hus
kies will face the Webfooters prob
ably lower in physical condition
than at any time this season. Two
of the men, Walt Sahli, and Bill
Mittlestedt, quarter, sustained in
juries that will likely keep them
out of the tilt altogether.
Yet though the situation may be
mighty black for either team tra
dition boosts this game into the
limelight—the tense rivalry be
tween the two schools has caused
so many upsets in the past that
no game between the two is won
until the final whistle blows.
Yearian and Foster
Given Good Positions
Hubert J. Yearian, who was
granted his M. S. degree in phys
ics by the university last year, is
now a graduate assistant in the
physics department of Purdue uni
versity at LaFayette, Indiana.
Bruce E. Foster, who received
an M. A. in physics here last sum
mer, is a graduate assistant at
Stanford university, where he is
studying for his Ph. D. degree in
physics. Foster is specializing in
X-Rays.
TICKETS ON SALE
FOR SEATTLE GAME
Students going to Seattle
must secure student exchange

Co-op, unless they wish to pay
about $2.50 for a seat. The
price is one dollar, as before,
and student cards must be pre

Chuck Reed, yell leader, is

be expected. No official rally

Senator A. W. Norblad, of As

university affairs, has just an
nounced that he will donate a cup
to be awarded to the living organ
ization having the largest propor
tionate number of fathers attend
ing Dad’s day.
A second prize will be donated
by another prominent and influen
tial member of the Oregon Dads’
association, Paul T. Shaw, of Port
land. This prize is not as yet
known, but is probably something
of a very useful nature.
Prizes to be on Display
In speaking of the prizes, Ros
ser Atkinson, chairman of the
Dads’ day directorate, said, "These
prizes are very attractive and
would grace any living organiza
tion’s house, very nicely. They
are designed primarily as a stim
ulus to encourage the students to
do all they can in the way of per
suading their fathers to attend
Dads’ day. These prizes will be
on display at an early date in the
Co-op.”
in order to protect tne nouses
with a small membership, the
awards will be worked out on a
proportionate basis.
The registration, of which Betty
Fairchild is in charge, will close
exactly at 2 o’clock Saturday af
ternoon, in time for the football
game and the awards will be made
on the basis of the registration
committee’s records.
Register Dads Early
All Dads should register at once
upon arrival at the registration
desk in the lobby of the Adminis
tration building (Johnson hall.)
There they will receive their
badges, their tickets for the foot
ball game reservations for the
banquet rooms and also any in
formation.
It is urged that all students
take their Dads to be registered
immediately upon their arriving
on the campus. This is necessary
to make final banquet arrange
ments.
Betty Fairchild, who has charge
of registration, and her committee
consisting of Marshall Shields,
Murdina Medler, Kenneth Jette,
and Margaret Hurley, will an
nounce at a later date the sched
ule of those who will assist at the
Administration building, Friday
afternoon a;id Saturday morning,
in registering Dads.

Game* to Be Hard
Oregon is not looking for a pic
nic Saturday. Not by a_ny means.
Washington has had a couple of
real setbacks this season,, it is
true, but right now the Upsides,
are tightening down. That’s just
why football is so popular—the
dope is so often spilled.
Coach Enoch Bagshaw of Wash
ington is getting the razz pretty
much lately, and if he and his
team should happen finally to boil
over with the rage just the day
they play Oregon it might be too
bad. The Washington stage is all
set for something like that, and
it's going to happen sooner or
later.
While only a tentative list of
men who will board the train to
morrow has been made out, 25 of
the men most sure to go are Chris
tensen, Colbert. Schulz, Lucas,
Bates, Archer, Erdley, Fletcher,
Wood, Shields, Lillie, West, Ana
ter, Forsta, Carter, Mason, Spear,
Donahue, Williams, Browne, Kitz
miller, Robinson, Londahl, Moel

Oregon’s Grid Captain Youthful Star
Injury Ends Geo. Stadelman’s Football Career
Captain Dave Mason, right half
back on Oregon’s football team,
has toted a football a good deal
of his life. He is finishing a col
orful career this year that started
back on the vacant lots of Albany
when he was still going to gram
mar school.
Few kids on the vacant lots
grow up to captain a college var
sity, but about every one of them
has dreams of doing it.
Dave was born in 1908, and Al
bany is his home town. For three
years he played football for Al
bany high as both quarter and
halfback. In the fall of ’26 he
came to Oregon and made the
frosh team. In the two following
years, despite unlucky accidents,
he played enough on the varsity
to make his letters.
It is because Dave has natural
football ability coupled with a very
likeable personality that he is cap
taining this year, what some say
is the greatest football team Ore
gon has ever had.
The name George Stadelman
will go down in Oregon’s hall of
fame as one of the greatest cen
ters ever to wear the lemon and
green.
George has had about the tough
est luck a football man can have.
After playing for two years so
well as to attract all-American
mention and getting all set for hi3
biggest year of all, a broken leg
