I *> ___ «. 8 :
Entries for the men's intramur
al swimming meet will close at 5
p. m. Friday, January 24. The
cup that was to be presented to
the winners is not to be given. j
It is expected that the turnout
for the meet will be large. The
fact that a cup will not be the ob- ]
ject for winning the meet is not
expected to influence the list of
entries at all since in the past
there has always been enthusiasm
for donuts sports when only the
title “Champions” was the dis
tinction received.
In regard to the cup which was
to be presented by the Co-op, G. L.
Hermance, promoter of the intra
mural program of the school, said
yesterday, “The department of
physical education for men has
not presented cups for intramural
competition since 1923. It was
through a misunderstanding of the
policy on which intramural sports
are conducted that it was announc
ed a cup would be offered.”
Track and baseball in the past
have been handled by the athletic
department and frequently cups
have been offered in those activ
ities.
Blank entry forms are being
mailed to all fraternities and when
filled out can be given to Johnny
Anderson, captain of the varsity,
Jim Haley, swimming manager, or
left at the gym office.
Letters Reveal
Book Attracts
Wide Attention
Research Gains Interest
From Authorities,
Says Dean
That the recently published re
search, "Oregon Hardwoods In
dustries,” made by William A.
Kowler and Ronald Robnett for
the Bureau of Business Research
is attracting national interest is
evidenced by two letters received
by Dean David E. Faville, of the
school of business administration.
Both letters from nationally known
men, who are authorities in their
field, and their interest in the
book is, believes Dean Baville, an
indication of its worth mid import
ance to business research.
G. B. Roorbach, head of the for
eign trade department of the Har
vard graduate school of business
writes:
“I am glad indeed to have this
book, both because of its content
and because it illustrates the sort
of original research which I think
is important and quite appropri
ate for a school of business to un
dertake."
The other letter comes from Ira
B. Cross, head of the economics
department of the University of
California. "I am very happy to
see that the University is doing
something to arouse good citizens
of Oregon to appreciate their op
portunities," writes Professor
Cross. “I rather feel that in many
ways tlie people of Oregon have
betn somewhat backward in de
veloping their natural resources
and that much remains to be done.
1 hope your report will have wide
circulation and be helpful in build
ing up a new spirit among your
business men."

Jimmy Phelan and ‘Doc’’ Spears Again Rivals
RIVALRY between the new football mentors of the Universities of
Washington and Oregon, which has waged in the Western con
ference for several years, is getting well started on the coast even
before Dr. C. W. Spears has arrived to take up his new duties at
Oregon. It won’t be long now until things should be booming along
these lines. Already the University of Washington Daily has com
pared the 1929 records of the two mentors, showing, naturally, that
Jimmy Phelan, the new Huskie mentor, had an edge. What the Wash
ington paper failed to show, however, was the clear superiority of
Dr. Spears' record for the many years previous to 1929.
“Washington’s Loss Is Oregon’s Gain” reads an article com
ing from a famous Chicago sports writer. This gentleman should
know, as he has been on the Western conferenee battlefront to
see the teams play. Warren Brown, sports editor of the Chicago
Herald-Examiner, is the authority w'ho has declared himself in
favor of Spears. Brown wrote that Spears is a big-leaguer
among big leagues, and he gave plenty of facts to back up his
statement. He states, “Incidentally ‘Hoc’ Spears is one of the
two coaches in football who has defeated ‘Pop’ Warner’s teams
two years’ running. . . . Make no mistake about Spears.”
The Chicago sports scribe goes on to declare, “And with all due
respect to Phelan and his Notre Dame technique, far be it from me
to fail in the suggestion that what was Washington's loss will be
Oregon’s gain. For ‘Doc’ Spears was also at one time very much in
the running for that Washington job, which went to Phelan undoubt
edly because the Huskies had gathered the wrong impression that
Spears was another of those ‘power’ coaches. Well, ‘Doc’ Spears is
a ‘power’ coach, whatever that is. But he is also an exponent of
opening up the game, and a coach who knows and has proven his
ability to teach what the forward pass is, and what it can be used for.’’
Proposed Gopher Changes Already Here
IJOTH Spears and Phelan were
** classed among the three best
young coaches in the Big Nine
by Brown, the other mentor being
Dick Hanley, who recently renew
ed his contract for seven years at I
Northwestern. He declares that |
California teams will have to look
to their laurels with Spears and
Phelan operating in the North
west. In explanation he declares,
"This doesn't call for any prophet
ic gift-4 Both Phelan and Spears
have proved their worth under
fire and 'Doc,' since the truth
must be told, has come through ,
more fire than Phelan." At any
rate, the Northwest has recently
acquired two of the greatest foot
ball coaches in the country and wc
are sure to see some real fire
works when their teams mix in
Portland next fall.
TO/E notice with Interest Unit |
Minnesota is aboil! to Make i
some sweeping changes In the j
athletic department of the tio |
pher institution. I>r. Spears ;
has fought these conditions for i
years, and the university senate !
committee on Intercollegiate
athletics at the Minneapolis
school is determined to carry on
the hat tie. The changes arc ex
pected to lie so “radical” that
they may affect the relation of
the (iophers with the other
members of tin- Itig Nine con
ference. All of this is Interest
inj;t some of it is surprising.
Oregon students will be inter
ested to know that the five
points which are causing so
much trouble in the middle west,
have been in operation here at
Oregon for some time. Few
students realize that we are as
far ahead of some eastern
schools as facts prove.
1 1 ERF, are the five points which
* are causing the uproar at
Minnesota, and which are working
out very nicely here at Oregon.
]. Organization of a full time
freshman football coaching staff.
2. Curriculum adjustments so
that all football candidates may
practice after 4 p. m., to elimin
ate night practices.
3. Availability of athlete’s
scholastic standings to coaches at
all times.
4. Appointment of a special
athletic publicity director.
b. Permission for the football
coach to present his own program
in person or in writing to the ath
letic committee.
We, here at Oregon, take ail of
these measures as to be expected
and it seems surprising to us
that other schools should be hav
ing difficulties about them. Dr.
Spears should be very satisfied
with the conditions here at Ore
gon as they include every main is
sue he lias been fighting for at
Minnesota.

^Congress Crab
Holds Discussion
On Time Buying
Proposed Stadium Topic
Begins Series for
Award Contest
Installment buying was dis
cussed last night by the Congress
club, with Merlin Blais, club pres
ident, introducing the subject. In
the discussion it was brought out
that installment buying has in
creased consumption and has en
abled the consumer to enjoy the
use of more goods, both necessi
ties and luxuries.
On the other hand, opponents
of the plan declared, installment
buying leads to unwise expendi
tures, and it keeps the working
class constantly in debt. It is
easy to spend, they said, when one
has not yet earned the money.
The proposed football stadium
will be discussed at the next meet
ing of the club, January 29.
George Bateman, freshman in pre
law, will introduce the topic.
This topic will be the first of
the list to be discussed this term
which will be used in the Vice
president public speaking award
contest, according to Wallace
Campbell, chairman of the con
test.

Frontiers of telephony—

I * adding new subscribers. •
l odav lands manv new “frontiers” for
telephone expansion — among them the
homes of present subscribers. Upstairs
and downstairs,wherever needed,additional
telephones are being installed. People are
learning that there is added utility in
convenient communication.
1 his new held of activity was conceived
by commercial development men of the
