Amos Iiurg, Oregon's famed globe trotter, has acquired a mascot, a little bear-cub named Andy. Andy, who hailed from the Mc Kenzie river region until yes terday, is quite at home at his new residence, although he seems to lie somewhat of a bur den on Amos’s hands. Last night Andy evidently was home sick and whimpered and cried just like a baby. A bottle of milk was quickly put into a tion to soothe the cub.

First Fire Burns in Peter’s Lodge on Philomelete Pienic ^ Clash of steel on steel! Shuf fling of quick footsteps! Panting of hot breaths! Short, muffled ex clamations! A duel in the forest? No, mere ly members of the Arts and Crafts group of Philomelete roast ing wieners and toasting marsh mallows on barbecue rods before the first fire which ever burned in the great fireplace of the new A. W. S. retreat, Peters’ Lodge on the banks of the McKenzie. Saturday afternoon the mem bers of this organization held the first picnic to be given in the new ly built cabin. When they arrived ^ they found the lodge to be a very new. very empty place of yellow, unpainted lumber, with two rooms, both quite empty of everything but a pile of shavings, a barrel of old paper, and a pile of wood. They played Indians and Pio neers all afternoon, carrying up water from the creek which flows near by, laying a fire in the wide, unused fireplace, hunting for nails among the shavings and for boards among the wood piles aryl pounding together several odd locking specimens of furniture which served as tables and chairs. When they departed they left the cabin rather more cheerful and habitable than when they came. The ashes of their fire were gray upon the hearth; and grouped around it, settle-wise, were three ! wooden benches, and on one of them an orange cushion.

This function is one of the last functions the class will spon sor,” he continued, “and it is a matter of interest to the whole class.” The chairman of the election board and the members of the board will be announced in the near future, the day for the elec tion of the junior president, vice president, secretary, and treasurer having been set as I’uesday, May 13. Band Gives First Outdoor Concert Sunday Evening Selections of ‘Rose Marie’ Are Popular; Large Crowd Attends With a pleasant spring evening favoring them at last, members of the University of Oregon band, di rected by John H. Stehn, gave their first Sunday evening out door concert over the week-end and made of it a most successful occasion. There were several hun dred listeners, many sitting about the lawns and many in cars near the tennis courts where the pro gram was given and the outdoor concert plan, an innovation here, appeared to be very popular. The band's program was a nice ly varied, lively one, handled with much ease and vigor by the or ganization, which gave further evidence of its steady development under the direction of Mr. Stehn. The selections from the tuneful “Rose Marie,” by Friml, were par ticularly popular.

Inauguration OfOfficersTo Be Colorful Songs, Dancing, and Short Program To Feature Installation TO AWARD ATHLETES Stoddard To Give Analysis Of Financial Status Of University All singing', all dancing, all in natural colors. Bigger and better than ever before. That's the promise of the present adminis tration in announcing the inaugu ration of student body officers to take place Thursday morning at 10 o’clock in Gerlinger hall. None of the formal beauty of the old-style installations will be lost, according to Tom Stoddard, president of the associated stu dents, but with the aid of certain numbers from the defunct Junior Vodvil, a new note of interest will be injected into the ceremonies. Complete plans have not been an nounced, but something new and different is promised, and those in charge expect to pack them in. Blankets To Be Awarded In addition to a short program and the official inauguration of officers, the senior awards of blankets will be made to the three year lettermen, and the golf team will be awarded gold trophies for having won the Pacific Coast championship last year. The tennis team which tied with the University of Texas for the national intercollegiate champion ship will also be given awards. Council Members Honored Through a special vote of the executive council, the student members of the council are to be presented with a small award for their work on the campus during the past year. In view of the fact that this is the only branch of student activity which has hitherto received absolutely no of ficial recognition of any sort, it was the belief of the council that some small compensation should be made. Tom Stoddard will present an interesting analysis of the finan cial condition of the associated students at the present time. Every student will be expected to attend.

All Campus Yell Contest Starts Today Campaign for New Cheers Held by Emerald and McDonald Theater OFFER THREE PRIZES All Students Eligible for Big Event Which Will End May 14 Those who have been complain ing about the lack of inspiring yells and the general lack of spirit at Oregon games and rallies have been given an opportunity to do something about this lack. Hal Kelley, yell king and con ductor of the newly formed yell leader's school, has announced a contest which will start today, un der the sponsorship of the Oregon Daily Emerald and the McDonald Theatre, the purpose of which is to uncover the latent yell writing ability of the campus. Open to Everyone The contest, which is open to anyone on the campus, will con tinue for a week and the winners will be announced during Junior Week-end. A box in which con tributions may be placed has been installed in the College Side Inn. “Anyone can enter the contest,” Kelley said in announcing the con test, “and we are looking for a number of good yells to be turned in.” He said that yells used at other institutions may be used to form the basis of the submitted yells, but that in general they must be changed to apply to this campus and that the main fea tures should be as original as pos sible. Prizes To Be Announced Three prizes will be awarded by a committee of judges which in cludes Hal Kelley, Prof. Daniel Gage, Russell Brown, manager of the McDonald theater, Maxine Glover, and Jackson Burke, repre senting the Emerald. This contest, which is the first function to be held under the aus pices of the newly formed yell school, is an effort on the part of student body officials to bolster up the spirit which has, according to campus and student opinion, been on the decline. Will Choose Yell King Criticism has been directed at the yell king and the rally direc torate in the past year and it is hoped that with the new material which will be available after the close of the contest that there will be no justification for an adverse criticism. Contestants are urged to con sider the practicality and fitness of the yells before they are turned in and to bear in mind the use to which the yells will be put pro vided they are acceptable. According to Kelley, members of the yell-school will not be eli gible to compete in this contest. The members of this group have been undergoing a thorough train ing program laid down by the present yell king and it is his in tention to submit his candidate for the new leader next Wednes day. The membership of the school includes: Freeman Young, Ed Wells, John Creech, Jim Gilbaugh, Kelsey Slocum, Phil Bell, John Penland, Dave Winans, and Ben Vitou. Evans, Hopkins Given Praise In Joint Organ, Piano Recital By LOIS NELSON Bored critics, who think the day of sparkling, animated concerts is fading, must have found new zest in living had they heard the piano and organ concert given at the Music auditorium Sunday after noon by John Stark Evans, organ ist, and George Hopkins, pianist. Here was a concert that came near to the ideal. It was given be fore an alert audience that filled the building. The program had been picked with skilled attention to proportion and variety. It was played by two men whose ability puts them in rank with the finest American musicians and educa tors. It had the vital spark that distinguishes the "chosen few” from the “would be.’’ And, to boot, it had the added flavor of true newness. Generally thought harmoniously unfriendly, the organ and piano combination was shown to be in stead a magnificent one, when un dertaken by able musicians. One is conscious of two definite I characteristics of the combination. There are times when it seems merely to strengthen the beauty and power of one or the other of the instruments, whichever hast the principal voice at the time. And there are times, of even more interest, when a distinctly new in strumental form seems created. The sharp, definite outline of the piano against the softer, richer (Continued on Page Three)
