SPOT LIGHTS By BETH SALWAY nnHE largest dinner of its kind ■ ever to be held in Portland, will be given in honor of Dr. Clarence Spears, new head foot ball coach. Many celebrities of the state and of the city of Port land will attend the banquet to night at the Masonic temple. Pres idents and coaches of the rival col leges, O. S. C., Washington, Wash ington State, and Idaho, were in vited, but only Coach Schissler of the Aggies can attend. President Kerr is sending Dean Harry S. Rogers, of the school of engineer ing to take his place. Evidently the athletic relations between the two colleges will not be severed, not when one coach welcomes a rival. * * * Spears will certainly get his share of Oregon hospitality in the two banquets and the big pep rally that will greet him as he steps off the train north of Villard hull. The president of the United States or even I.indy would not get a bigger hand shake than the new' coach at the University of Oregon is go ing to get. Big people should be received in a big way, * * * Cal Young, first football coach of the University of Oregon, will journey to Portland to attend the banquet for Coach Spears. Young was perhaps the most successful coach Oregon ever had. During his first year, 1892, he won all his games; which in reality was only one—against the Albany college. By the way, he always refereed the games himself, besides coach ing, to make sure of winning the games. The score of the Albany game was 42-20. Dr. Spears will have to work hard to beat that record for the first year of his coaching. * Oregon’s intercollegiate swim ming season will open tomorrow against the Aggie squads, both varsity and frosh swimming. Prospects of Oregon winning the meet seem to be pretty good, but the chances are not as good us they were last year. The absence of a regular coach is keenly felt, a member of the team having to do double duty. Such material as the famous ' trio on last year’s frosh squad; Blunkcnhurg, Miller, and Wal ton; and Bob Near, varsity di ver, are missed. No coach for a major sport, other than a stu dent, makes it difficult to turn out a good team. A full-time coach is needed, but it is un likely that a couch as good as Abercrombie can be obtained. » * * Women, not to be outdone by the men, are negotiating for a triangular swimming meet with the Washington State normal school at Bellingham, and the Uni versity of Hawaii. Clare Maer tens, who is from the Islands, is in charge. The women’s varsity team, composed of the best from all classes, will no doubt, swim in Such a meet. * * # Life-saving badges itr»* recoin iwnilnd for all women coming out for lacrosse, but water w ini’s will do, if Koine can’t swim. This Indian name, played in moist Oregon woutfior, is now taking the form of water polo; the only difference being a smaller and much harder ball being used, more on the team, a bigger pool, and the “cradles” used to sling the ball in passing or into the goal. Dean Lamlsbtirv Will Aet as Judge Invited to Clht'lialie for Music Contest Or. John J. Landsbury, dean of the University of Oregon school of music, has accepted an invita tion to act as judge at a high school omusic contest 0at Chehiilr, Washington, it was learned yes terday. The contest will be held March 21 and 22, with a large number of Washington schools pa rtieipating. Dr. Landsbury has been chosen to judge important music events throughout the northwest states and in Canada during past years The Univetsity dean will be heard in piano recital here for the lust, time in about a half dozen years Match 6 when he will give a joint program with Arthur Boardman at the school of music. Track Hopes Brighten Wilh :• Regular Work Best Frosli Squad in Years Is Developing From Present Material Pole Vaulters, Sprinters Showing Good Form Hopes for an all-round frosh track team have brightened con siderably since practice is begin ning and the workouts are show ing improvement, says Bill Hay ward, track coach. One of the best frosh squads in several years should be developed out of the present material. The pole vaulters show the most promise. Last year the Oregon frosh had to concede this event to the Rooks because there wasn't a frosh in school who was eligible. It will be a different story this year, thinks Hayward. Claude Gotschall of Grants Pass is so far the best in this event. He brings the high school record of 11 feet 8 inches and should be ably backed by Merril Stoddard who goes over the bar at 10 feet 6 inches. Both of these marks are particularly good showings for freshmen. Sprinters Have Good Record Six sprinters have been showing good form, and they all have good high school records: Ceorge Ar vol and Fred Hellberg of Astoria, Johnny Marrs from Jefferson high, K. B. Olsen, North Bend, Don Sieg mund, of Salem, and Paul Starr. Burton Long, half miler, is prob ably the most outstanding man on the frosh list. He is the best half i miler of anyone in the varsity or frosh ranks, says Hayward. He I clipped off the distance in 1:58 at the Washington State interscho lastics at Pullman, and also ran the mile in 4:33. John McCulloch and Ed Hicks, both of Portland, arc two other men out for the half mile. Another frosh who should show up In competition is Sherwood Billings, holder of the state rec ord of the 12-lb. shot put. He heaved the sh'ot 46 feet for Hill Military academy last year. Ho mer Smith of Salem claims 48 I l eel, fo.r his record. Scarcity of Broad Jumpers While there is a noticeable shortage of good broad jumpers, several men, judged from their high school records should make good in the high jump. Fred Hell berg hung up 5 feet 8 inches to his credit, and Bob Riordan of Haines, and Forest Howerton have done 5,feet 10 inches. Frank Crissman is so far the best hurdler, and brings the high i school time of 15 9-10. Jack Rush i low throws the javelin 166 feet j and Jack Selin, 159. The schedule for the tracx meets for the frosh is as follows: May 1 Relay with O. S. C. at Corvallis. May 10 Proposed track meet with Rooks at Corvallis-. May 23 Track meet with Rooks at Eugene. The date hasn't been set for the competition with the Portland high schools, but a meet with them will be held. CALKINS GIVES VIEWS ON OREGON ALUMNAE (Continued from Pag« One) ing graduate of Oregon. During the World war, her war citations for work for overseas were very noteworthy. Although her home is now oin New York, where she is head of American Women's Hospitals, she lived for many years in Portland, Oregon. From the class of 1908, Miriam Van Waters has made a consider able name for herself. She ob tained her B.A. from this Univer sity in that year, her M.A. in 1910, and her Ph.D. from Clark univer sity in 1913. She has been a writer, lecturer, and author. From the years 1913 to 1921, she delivered 100 lectures, and at present she is referee of the juvenile court at Los Angeles. A well-known alumna of Oregon is Janet Young, who graduated from here in 1911 and since that tune has been with the Moroni Olsen Players. As well as being the leading lady of that- company. Miss Young is business manager of the organisation. limmu Wold from the class of 1891 is now practising law in Washington. D. C. She was a member of Phi Beta Kappa and has, the degrees of B.A., M.A.. DL.B., and LLD. Virginia Cleaver Bacon, the state librarian at Salem, is an other alumna of Oregon whom Miss Calkin;, believes is worthy of mention. Few Tickets On Hand For O. S, C. Game Only 15 reserved seat tickets are available for Oregon stu dents who wish to see the Ore gon-O. S. C.' basketball game at Corvallis Saturday night, ac cording to Konald Kobnett, as-» distant graduate manager. These tickets are on sale for , $1.00 at the A. S. U. O. office. No stuti nt tickets to be had. The gni. e will begin at 7:30. Swimming Team To Meet O.S.C. Next Saturday Anderson May Not Swim; Oregon Team Shows Better Records In the swimming meet against Oregon State Saturday after noon in the pool of the Gerlinger building, when both the varsity and ifrosh swimming teams tangle with O. S. C., the Webfoots will have the edge over the Beavers, having defeated the Multnomah club of Portland 36-30. Oregon State lost to the clubmen by the same score. Oregon is expected to take most of the first places if all its stars* are able to compete. However, the Orangemen have a consistent ly strong team and may spill the dope. Johnny Anderson should grab two firsts in the dashes, although there is a possibility that he won’t be able to swim, and this would greatly weaken Oregon's strength. Paul Lafferty has been going fine in the breast stroke and should win his race. Chuck Silverman, though he lost the 220 against Multnomah, is figured to come in first in the 440 which will be on the program here. Bill McNabb's performance in winning the back stroke in Portland last Saturday was outstanding and Len Thomp son starred in diving. These men aided by A1 Edwards, Art Hansen, Palmer McKim, Charles Foster, Joe Brown, Bill Seivers, and others will make plen ty of points for the varsity. The frosh team is below the strength of those Oregon has had in pre vious years. Outside of Bob Need ham, who seems to be the leading man, not4 many have shown up well, Oregon has taken the last four meets from O. S. C. Oregon Players Resting; Meet Aggies Saturday Northern Trip Adds Three Victories and One Loss To Conference Status Team Within Three Wins Of Tieing Washington After a successful road trip the Oregon basketball squad returned home yesterday for a short rest before the O. S. C. game tomor row. Starting the trip as the un derdog, and being next to the cel lar, the team came back with three victories and one loss to reach the second notch in the northern conference. steuiu ine presem. uuuiei eutc ings are: Team Won Lost Washington .8 4 Oregon.7 6 W.

That is if Wash ington succeeds in tipping the al ready lowly Vandals. In case of a tie, and anything may happen in the race this year, a playoff will be held to determine which team will meet the winner of the southern conference, probably U. j S. C. Several of the players are laid up with injuries, and some may not be able to play in the game Saturday. Stevens was out of both Idaho games, and the Gon zaga game, with a bad knee. Dolp is also suffering from a bad knee, and Olinger and Eberhart may be out with injured ankles. The whole team is tired after the strenuous trip, but it is hoped they will be rested up for the O. S. C. game tomorrow. Reinhart would not make any predictions for the remaining sea son, but admitted that “anything might happen.” He gave the prob able starting lineup as follows: Stevens, Lovoff, Dblp, Eberhart, I I DR.

About two years ago he abolished the artillery school in Ciudad Real be cause the school had protested against a ruling of his. Other causes of dissatisfaction of the Rivera regime were the outrages committed against the students and professors who said anything against the government. Many professors were banished, the au tonomy of the Spanish universi ties was violated by sending po lice in for student offenders. Pro fessors were relieved of their po sitions and many of the literary group were exiled, among them Belasco Ibanez, author of “The Four Horsemen.” "Primo de Rivera did several good things for Spain, however. He abolished sinecures—jobs given to noble but impoverished families, which paid large salaries for no work.” He decreed ^hat every man must be at his post at 9 o’clock j every morning or the post would j be vacant. This was more than | a gesture because it caused dis-1 turbances in many provinces. Sev- j eral province governors commit- j ted suicide, fearing that they would be called to account for the disposal they had made with the ; public funds. I I Grille | Dance Campa Shoppe FRIDAY NIGHT Featuring Marjorie Douglass i (Blues Singer) i Sigma Nu Trio Phi Sigma Kappa Trio Music By JOHNNY ROBINSON’S VARSITY VAGABONDS Make vour reservations ' now at the College Side. Tennis Material For Varsity Team ; Gets Into Shape Smith Arranges Tentative Schedule; Team May Go South i _ The most likely material for the varsity tennis team, outside of Sherman Lockwood, veteran from last year's squad, who has a place ; cinched, are four sophomores who j have been showing up in a favor- ' able light in the ladder tourna ment. Jack Rhine, Don Ragan, and Bob Hoogs are from the freshman i team last year, and Jack Kaplan hails from Reed. These men so far, according to S. Stephenson Smith, coach, are displaying the best brand of tennis among the other aspirants for the varsity; Bob Hoogs is probably the best of the four. Stan Almquist, another crack player from last year’s team, is | not in school this term. The chanc- j es of the .team will depend a good deal on whether or not he returns ' for spring term, says Smith. Aim- I quist has perhaps the speediest forehand in the west. His play ing, coupled with the fine all round game of Lockwood, who has an excellent flat forehand drive and a strong offensive backhand, would send the Oregon squad far up the ladder towards victory. Four regular players and one al ternate will be chosen for the team. Although the schedule for the tennis conference games has not been made as yet by the graduate manager, Coach Smith hopes to have the following tentative sched ule arranged: University of Washington at Seattle, and the Seattle Tennis club. A week's trip south is also planned; Stanford and University of California are on the list. Mr. Smith expressed hopes of ar ranging a contingent exhibition I match with some of the southern California schools at Bushstreet y Tennis club in San Francisco. EMERALD STAFF MAY SECURE CLASS CREDIT (Continued from Page One) debate squad receive it. Why not the Emerald people?” Gregory stated: "The idea of the thing is that the students who work day after day should have some reward for their work. They certainly deserve some recogni tion. It remains for Theta Sigma Phi and Sigma Delta Chi, together with the help of the journalism faculty, to work things out.” University of North Carolina has a student who is only 36 inches tall. sj3JBjSEISfBfSISJaiSIBJ5fSlBJ5JSISISJ3MSJSJS© Your Favorite Fish Fresh from cool ocean depths come the various kinds of fish offered to you here daily.
