NUMBER 41
Council Wants
Organization
Name Revised
Women s League May Be
Christened Associated
Women Students
WILL VOTE ON MATTER
Other Universities Have
Title Proposed Here
Report Shows
That the Women's league may
change its name to Associated
Women Students was indicated
at a meeting of the executive
council of the organization held
Tuesday afternoon. The question
will probably be put up to women
of the University to obtain their
vote on the matter, according to
members of the council.
All but very few of the univer
sities in the United States have
organizations of women which go
by the name of Associated Wo
men Students, and there is also a
national organization by that
name. It is thought by local uni
versity women that this is one
reason why the name of the local
group should be changed.
Investigation Planned
An investigation will be made
by officers of the Women’s league
about the change before a final
decision is reached.
Letters have been sent to sev
eral western colleges to obtain in
formation about their women's or
ganizations, and it was found that
all but two of these went by the
name of Associated Women Stu
dents. All similar organizations
in high schools are called Girls’
leagues, and it is thought that call
ing the campus group Women’s
league tends to confuse the col
lege association with those of
high schools, according to Dorothy
Kirk, secretary of Women’s
league.
Retreat Listed
It was also decided at the meet
ing to have a retreat for all wo
men’s organizations on the cam
pus which will be sponsored by
the Women’s league. It is
planned to obtain the rental of a
private home a few miles from
Eugene which can be used by dif
ferent women’s organizations by
obtaining permission from Wo
men’s league. Mortar board will
take charge of arranging for this
retreat.
DRAMA TO SHOW
LATEST SETTINGS
The production on Dec. 6 and 7
of G»lsworthy’s “Escape” at the
Guild theater will introduce to lo
cal patrons of the drama a new
era in stage design and settings.
These are constructed designs,
making use of flat materials, in
stead of the curtains and hang
ings formerly used in the theater.
The result of this departure in
designing stage ' sets is to lend
more reality to the scene through
the medium of three dimensions.
The peculiarity of the construc
tion of the play, calls for nine
scenes involving change in setting,
has made it necessary to use a
composite set.
They are being prepared by the
classes in theatre workshop anc
stage design under the directior
of the designer, Fred Harris oi
the art department.
Infirmary to
Indulge Guests
With Big Dinner
I TV/'OF, be unto the turkey that
’’ enters the Infirmary during
| Thanksgiving! It has been
i prophesied that those unfortu
nates who will be forced to
j stay in the infirmary during
Thanksgiving are going to con
sume, eaeli and separately, a
life-sized turkey dinner with
dressing, cranb’r’y sauee, n’ail
the trimmings. For an hour at
least the patients will have the
opportunity to gloat over as
fascinating and all-filling a
meal as their more healthful
1 brethren will likewise be doing.
•And as many of those confined
will be going home today, those
who are left will really have
more than their share.
Students Cheer

At Vi Hard Rally

Foreign Soil
McEwan Speaks Before
Crowd of Rooters
Oregon send-off football rallies
at Villard hall seem fated to work
under the handicap of late trains
this season. Yesterday, for the
third time this year, the train
which the Oregon team elected to
leave on failed to show up at the
scheduled time.
But it would have taken more
than a late choo-choo to dampen
the spirit of the five or six hun
dred Oregon students who gath
ered at the tracks at noon yester
day to say goodbye to their team
as it left on the long trip which
will take it to San Francisco for
a game with St. Mary’s tomorrow
and then on to Miami for a clash
with the University of Florida
team on December 7.
A fire truck loaded with mem
! bers of the rally committee
shrieked through the campus at
31:40, and soon long lines of stu
dents, only too glad to get out of
their classes early, were following
it to the scene of the rally.
Just before leaving, Coach Mc
J Ewan mounted the yell-leader’s
| stand and made the typical cau
j tious statement that a good coarh
! usually makes on the eve of a big
game and was loudly cheered by
j the rooters.

OREGON COLORS
SENT TO MIAMI
Thousands of windshield stick
ers and $150 worth of Oregon
pennants and banners have been
! “wired” to points along the route
that the Oregon team will take
on its way to Florida, according
! to M. F. McClain, Co-op manager,
| who sent the order.
Reception committees and
coaches in New Orleans, Atlanta,
Jacksonville, and Miami will dis
tribute the colors to merchants
\ and car owners who will display
| them when the team passes
through their city.
Band music and Oregon songs
have also been sent to Miami for
! use by the local bands at the game.
ATHLETES CLUTCH BOOKS BUT
TO NO A VAIL; PICTURE FLOPS
^LL of which goes to show that
the newspaper game isn’t so
much honey as it might be.
Getting a bunch of school books,
football men, a photographer, an
observation car, and certain mem
bers of a newspaper staff all to
gether at the same time may come
under the head of impossible. It's
right because it was tried yester
day.
Prompted by the idea of how
nice a picture in the Emerald
would look showing the Oregon
football squad ‘ hitting the books”
while on their long journey to the
Miami game, a photographer was
hired, who promised to be at the
depot by 11:45 as that was when
the team was leaving.
Soon came 11:40, then 11:45
still no photographer. Energetic
members of the Emerald stafi
scoured around until they found
enough books to give them, know
ing that the departing football
men wouldn’t have any, especially
where they would be able to get
at them. Here they were, books,
football men, but no photographei
: or observation car. An observa
' tion car would be best because
they knew that that is where the
j men would be most of the time
I when they were riding througl
1 the sunny southlands.

rapher found that he had forgot

Trade Lectures
DR. PACKARD IS FIRST
Plan Will Inaugurate New
Policy Between Rival
Schools
Oregon studen's of geology and
Oregon State students in the
school of mines will receive the
benefit of instruction from fac
ulty members ol both institutions'
winter term, a< cording to an an
nouncement d' by Dr. Warren*
D. Smith, het f the geology de
partment of University, yes
terday.
At different ,es this winter,
by the present ns, certain geol
ogy professors n Oregon will
go to O. S. C. and lecture before
the classes in the school of mines,
covering subjects not included in
the mining school curriculum. At
other times an instructor from the
neighboring school will tell Ore
gon geology classes about certain
fields in which he has specialized.
The plan has the endorsement of
the administration of both schools.
Allison To Speak Here
Since Oregon State has no pal
eontologist it is probable that Dr.
Packard, paleontologist of the
geology department, will lecture
first there, while Dr. Allison of
O. S. C. will hold classes here, Dr.
Smith said.
Plan Declared Desirable
“This plan, in a desirable meas
ure, will give students of both in
stitutions the same advantages,
which is altogether as it should
be. The two institutions are un
der the same board of education,
the instructors are paid from the
same treasury, the students will
benefit, and so there can be no
possible objection. In addition to
what the students will get out of
this the members of the various
staffs will get a very considerable
intellectual stimulus. Rivalry in
athletics is all right, but there
should be cooperation in academic
matters,” Dr. Smith said.
Plan Begun in June
The idea had its start last June
at a meeting of the Eastern Ore
gon Mining association in Baker,
which was attended by Dr. Smith
and James H. Hance, dean of the
cchool of mines at O. S. C., and
who discussed the plan then. Last
week Dean Hance conferred with
Dr. Smith and Dr. Packard here
and the arrangements were prac
tically completed. Dr. Smith stat
ed that as far as he was aware
the completion of this plan will
mark the first time in state his
tory that such an exchange be
tween Oregon and O. S. C. will
have been tried.

Members of Gamma Alpha Chi,
woman’s national advertising hon
orary, will solicit advertising for
Old Oregon, alumni magazine, in
Portland during the Thanksgiving
holidays.
At a recent meeting of the or
ganization, of which Elaine Hen
derson is president, it was decided
that the girls will manage the so
licitation for the magazine begin
i ning with the January edition. It

Violin Costing $40,000 is property
Of Kochanski, Who Plays Here Soon
Famed Polish Musician Is
Owner of Valued Collec
tion; Recital at Igloo,
Thursday, December 5
Not many professional men,
whether musicians or manufac
turers, have more capital invested
in equipment than Paul Kochan
ski, famous Polish violinist, who
will be heard in recital at McAr
thur court on December 5, under
the auspices of the associated stu
dents of the University of Oregon.
Kochanski is the owner of two
famous violins, both of which cost;
him a great deal of money. One
is known as the “Spanish Strad,”
and was made by Stradivarius for
the Spanish crown in 1687. It
was stolen in the early eighteenth
century and was lost for almost
a hundred years.
It was in the Eritish museum
in London for two years. It was
lent to Kochanski for his first
London recital, and he was so im
pressed with its beauty of tone
that he bought it. The purchase
price was never revealed, but it is
judged to be extremely high.
Not content with one great in
strument, Kochanski recently pur
chased another at a cost of $40,
000 an instrument made by the
Italian violin-maker, Guarnerius,
in the early eighteenth century.
So Kochanski now has two of
the finest violins in the world as
a medium for his genius, and plays
first one and then the other, ac
cording to his mood.
Reserved seat sale for the Koch
anski recital will open next Mon
day, according to Ronald Robnett.,
assistant graduate manager. Tick
ets may ne obtained at the gradu
ate manager’s office, the Univer
sity Co-op store, and McMorran
and Washburne. Students are ad
mitted to the concerts without
charge by presenting their sLudent
body cards.
Secretary Mails
Election Ballots
For Alum Officers
Homer D. Angel!, Edward
F. Bailey in Race
For Presidency
Ballots are being mailed today
by Miss Jeannette Calkins, alum
ni secretary, to every Oregon al
umnus for the election of a presi
dent and two vice presidents for
the alumni association. The can
didates were nominated at the
alumni convention held during
Homecoming.
Unusual interest is being shown
this year in the presidential con
test, with two strong candidates,
Homer D. Angell, ’00, and Edward
F. Bailey '13, in the running. Both
men are prominent in legal circles
of the state, and both are mem
bers of the state legislature. Mr.
Angell, a Portlander, is a member
of the house of representatives,
while Mr. Bailey, whose home is
in Junction City, is a state sena
tor.
Four candidates are in the race
for vice president, two of whom
are to be chosen. They are as fol
lows: Otto Heider '14, Sheridan;
Mae D. Kinsey '05, Eugene; Hen
ry McKinney ’07, Baker; and Carl
Nelson T9, Salem.
According to Miss Calkins, the
ballots will be counted on Decem
ber 31, 1929, and the successful
candidates will take office Janu
ary 1, 1930.
DONALD BARNES

A paper on post-war England
will be read by Professor Donald
Barnes of the University of Ore
gon history department, in room

recent history will be especially
interested in this paper, Professor
Walter Barnes, who announced the
talk, said yesterday.

To Keep Record
Of Activities
Joan Patterson, Dot Kirk
Named on Committee
With Dean
To make a study of women's
activities and to devise a system
for a new method of keeping a
record of the ac
tivities of indi
vidual women,
|D o r o t h y Kirk
and Joan Patter
son, respectively
secret ary and
vice-president of
Women's League,
were appointed
yesterday by

^president, to
work as a com
Joan Patterson mUtee with Dean
Virginia Judy Esterly.
Recor(Js are kept in the dean of
women’s office now of the activi
ties of the women on the campus,
but these are not considered ade
quate by Mrs. Esterly or the of
ficers of the Women’s League. It
is hoped that through the work
of this committee a new and much
better way to keep a complete
record of the activities in which
every woman is interested and
takes part, the time spent on the
activity, the prominence gained
by the woman through the activity
or the activity itself, and in this
way to have definite information
about every woman in the Uni
versity.
All colleges throughout the
country have some form of record
keeping for college work of an
extra-curricula nature, and it is
hoped that an improvement can
be made on the local campus.
This material, when assembled
and organized, will probably be
available for student use, it is
stated by Women’s League au
thorities.
VAN DINE TO FLY
TO ST. MARY’S TILT
For the first time in history
that a college sports editor has
ever flown to a football game,
Harry Van Dine, sports editor of
the Oregon Daily Emerald, will
leave this noon from Portland for
r.he St. Mary’s game in one of
the new Fokker tri-motored planes
operated by the West Coast Air
Transport company.
As Van Dine is the first who
has ever been reported to fly to
a game, the ride is complimentary.
A complete story of the game will
be sent to the Emerald, he states.
Quarantine of Oregon
State Campus Denied
Rumors were current on the
Oregon campus last night to the
effect that the Oregon State col
lege campus would be quarantined
over Thanksgiving holidays be
cause of a spinal meningitis epi
demic. Information received from
the Daily Barometer office last
night branded the rumor as un
founded, although such a rumor
was also current on the Corvallis
campus. Two years ago Univer
sity students lost their Thanksgiv
ing holidays because of a siege of
infantile paralysis.

PRESIDENT HALL
TO ATTEND MEET
In addition to attending the
Oregon-St. Mary’s game Thanks
giving day, Dr. Arnold Bennett
Hall, president of the University,
will go to a meeting of the trus
tees of the American Group of the
Institute of Pacific Relations to
be held in San Francisco the last
of this week. Dr. Hall left yes
terday on the Shasta with the
team.
The board of trustees, of which
the president is a member, will
hear reports of the conference of
the Institute of Pacific Relations
held at Kyoto, Japan, which Mrs.
Murray Warner, donor of the Mur
ray Warner art museum, at
tended; it will also maae plans for
the next conference which will be
held in two years, and organize
the work for the coming year.
“My chief interest in the insti
tute is in its research program,”
Dr. Hall stated. "In dealing with
problems of overpopulation and
food supply scientifically now it
may be possible to settle future
major conflicts by peaceful con
ciliation.”
TURKEY SHOW NOT
TO INCLUDE MEAL
Miss Lillian Tingle, head of the
home economics department, will
give a turkey demonstration to
day. No—that doesn’t mean a
turkey-eating race, or anything ol
the sort. Her foods classes are
to show the correct way to pre
pare a turkey for the oven.
There will be two demonstra
tions, one from 11 to 12:30, the
other from 12:30 to 2. Since this
includes the lunch hour, those whc
attend may bring their lunct
along and eat it during the dem
onstration. Also, says Miss Tin
gle, those who can’t come at the
beginning of the first demonstra
tion can prtend they’re going to a
movie and attend the last of the
first one and stay over and see
the first of the second.

Advance Sale for Turkey
Day Till Large,
Is Report
The roster of Oregon players
who will journey to Miami for the
Florida game on December 7 will
be raised from 27 to 29 if Oregon’s
share of the St. Mary’s game re
ceipts are large enough to justify
the additional expense, according
to Tom Stoddard, student body
president.
If the decision to send two extra
players is made, those who will go
will be chosen by President Hall,
Coach McEwan, Athletic Director
Earl, and Graduate Manager Ben
efiel in San Francisco. The selec
tion will be made from the group
of players who are scheduled to
return to Eugene after the San
Francisco game Thursday.
From San Francisco comes the
news that the advance sale for
the Oregon-St. Mary’s game had
brought in $10,000 last Saturday.
This is the best advance sale for
any game played in San Francis
co this year, and a large crowd is
expected to view the game.
The Oregon share of the gate
receipts has been insured against
loss from rain under the terms of
a policy taken out by the graduate
manager.

JOHNALDENBLUE OVER THIS
THANKSGIVING S OUTLOOK
By WILFRED BROWN
44TF you ask me,” remarked John
Alden, spitting out of the
corner of his mouth at the stove,
“as a time to hold Thanksgiving,
this is an excellent day for a fu
neral.”
“Tut, tut, my impetuous young
man,” returned the venerable El
der Brewster. “Are we not fortu
nate that his gracious majesty,
King James, has allowed us to re
main here in this new land to pur
sue the elusive culture as we see
fit?”
“Oh, yeah,” said John, “but,
aside from that, things are in one
gosh-awful mess. Take, for in
stance, the scrap between Miles
Standish and Governor Bradford.”
“Well,—er—I’ll have to admit
that there is a little difficulty
there,” said the elder.
“Difficulty?” queried John, dif
ficulty? Why, man, it’s down
right disagreeable. Miles thought
he had the governor over a bar
rel when he demanded a new con
tract before setting out to fight
the Narragansetts, but Bradford
stiffened up like a Sigma Chi at a
formal, and the way things are go
ing around here now we’re apt to
wake up and find ourselves scalped
most any morning.”
“But there are yet many things
to be thankful for,” admonished
Elder Brewster. “Think of tha
victories over the Indians we have
scored this season. Only once
have Miles and his men been
forced to retreat.”
John Alden snorted. “Only
once so far,” he said, “but don’t
forget we’ve got two more battles
coming up before we lay away
our guns. Here three of our best
fighters get barred out of the
Narragansett contest because they
