Plans for Annual Journalism Jam Now Under Way Gregory, Geii. Chairman, Announces Directorate; To be Big Event Colorful Dance to be Held In Armory Nov. 15 Plans for the annual Journalism Jamboree, one of the biggest and moat colorful, all-campus dances Carl Gregory jf the year, began to take definite shape yesterday with the announce ment of the directorate to take charge of the event by Carl Gregory, of Wall owa, general chair man. The m e m bers of the di rectorate are v^mieiiue ^niw, r'orimnu, aciver tising; Lawrence Mitchelmore, of Ashland, refreshments; Harry Van Dine, Portland, tickets; Leonard Hagstrom, Portland, orchestra and prizes; Neil Taylor, Portland, pa trons and patronesses; and Wil fred Brown, Camas Valley, pub licity.

Until this year the dance was held in the Men’s gymnasium, but last year that floor was crowded to the point of being uncomfort able; so it was decided to find a larger place this year. All students attending the Jam boree are supposed to be attired in costumes, although in past years those in campus togs have not been barred. Prizes will be awarded for the cleverest cos tumes. The dance is a no-date affair with tickets selling at fifty cents each. The members of Theta Sigma Phi, women’s jour nalism honorary, will handle con cessions at the Jamboree.

Huskies Raid Oregon Bleachers; Gain Fog Horn by Forward Pass I w ASHINGTON lost Saturday and added a tackle, Wester weller, to the all American “Un conscious" eleven, but the Husky rooting- section managed to kid nap the noisiest and most bull throated of the Oregon support ers before the game had ended. The Washington rooters had a siren, but its plaintive, doleful wails and shrieks were mere whis pers compared to the raucous, blood-thirsty bellows that were emitted by a fog horn operated on the Webfoot side of the big sta dium. Indeed, the voice of this horn was so powerful that it seriously and successfully contested writh musical strains from the Univer sity of IVashington's fifty-piece band. The boys up north, there-1 fore, were perhaps justified in their ensuing drastic actions. About the middle of the fourth quarter of the game, a small group of Washington students walked casually around in front of the | Oregon section until they were in a favorable position to receive a fog horn on a forward pass. A Washington man had meanwhile worked his way into the stands and established himself close to the horn and its custodian. The j plan worked perfectly. | The Washingtonian shouted! ] “Fight!” and gazed earnestly upi into the bleachers. So did every- | one else.

W. C. A. to Begin Discussion Groups Many Topics in Line for Evening Talks Y. W. C. A. discussion groups in which students have shown lively interest will begin on the campus tomorrow, according to Betty Hughes, chairman, who announced yesterday that girls wishing to sign up may still do so'at the bun galow.

Freshmen in Good Condition After Saturday’s Fray Central ia Normal School Next Barrier; Came November 1 With perhaps the toughest of their five scheduled games behind them and a comparatively easy one slated for Friday, the fresh men football squad last night in dulged in a well-earned light workout. Both of the teams in last Sat urday’s freshmen encounter lived up to expectations and a good game was the result. The Ore gon Frosh came out on top of a 19 to 0 score but were not in any sense of the word 19 points better than the Washington Babes. All three of their scores came as a result of long runs and one was handed to them on a silver plat ter. Both teams seemed to be able to make gains from the cen ter of tli«. field to the 30-yard line but there they stopped. The conflict was productive of a few injuries, none of them se rious, however. Sherwood Bil lings, tackle, received a kick in the spine which will keep him out of a suit for a few days but he will in all probability be able to play against Centralia on Friday. Dan Sheehey had the fingers on his right hand sprained and may be a bit clumsy handling the ball for a few days but should be able to get along. Bill Morgan, the other tackle, was kicked in the face early in the contest but re mained in the game. He will have to protect his face for a while but his injury is not a serious one. On Friday, November i, Coach Prink Callison will start his charges against the Centralia Nor mal school eleven. Though this game will not be as hard nor as important as the Washington con test they are not to be considered too lightly as they held the Pur pie and Gold Babes to a C to 0 score on October 12.

Dr. Bowman Talks To Freshman on Sincerity in Life Presbyterian Pastor Urges Wise Adjustment In Religion “Sincerity and Spirituality in Life” was the subject of a short talk by Dr. Leonard Bowman, pas tor of the First Presbyterian church of Portland, presented last night to the freshman class. Dr. Bowman’s theme was a plea to the incoming freshman to en deavor to adjust his ideas of reli gion to the knowledge to be gained in college—a plea to make a wise adjustment to college life. “Science uoes not clash with re ligion,” Dr. Bowman said. “Sci ence discovers fact3—religion tries to interpret them.” The assembly, one of the best attended of the three thus far held, was opened with two 'cello solos by Dr. John Mez, of the school of music. After Dr. Bow man had completed his address, Professor Roy Bryson, also of the school of music, led the first-year students in a rendition of “Mighty Oregon” and the “Pledge Song.” It was the consensus of opinion that the class had made a definite improvement over last week’s ren dition of the same songs.

The hulk of an unidentified sailing vessel, dating back to Revolutionary War times was re cently found buried 25 feet under ground near West and King streets in New York City. Can non balls also were found in the ship. Power Plant and Barrels Become Bit of New York Factory Scenery tt^pHE Home of Industrialism,” “The Spirit of the Power of Man,” “Product of the Future,” are good titles to apply to a draw ing of what appears to be a bit of New York's fantastic factory scenery, but is really no more nor less than a corner of the power plant, with the base of the tall brick chimney, a steep roof angle, and a colorful group of brightly painted oil barrels sprawling near a shed. This picture is one of the projects of Maude Kerns’s Design I class, which met Monday from 1 to 4, and accomplished its work. The press assisted the class by furnishing a prop for their backs as they surveyed the scene from near the end of the press build ing. Gallantly surmounting such hardships as freezing weather and I a lack of chairs, the class pro duced tone drawings, in shades of black and grey, which lent a weird “Metropolis” appearance to the subject. At their last meeting, they had done gay sketches in color, of the same group of ob jects, with pink, red, or orange chimneys, according to their dif ferent views, and blue sky as a background to the shed, near which were the black oil barrels, banded in green and orange and red. The second drawing seemed to represent the power plant on a gloomy day; the skies varied from black to light grey in the different schemes, and the chim ney could have been either the list vestige of a dismal Greek ruin, or a memorial shaft raised in honor of the departed box-cars.
