Withdrawal of Candidate
Comes as Upset in
Campaign
Kendall, DePittard, Clapp
Appear To Be Only
Contenders Left
Freshman politics were thrown
into an uproar last night, and up
to the time the Emerald went to
pre3s, the din apparently hadn't
quieted down. The chief cause of
the disturbance was the with
drawal of one whole party, headed
by Fred Ahearn, Portland, who
threw his whole support over to
John Kendall, Portland.
Lined up on Kendall’s ticket, ac
cording to the latest reports, are:
Irene Waltz, Portland, who seeks
the office of vice-president; Joan
Cox, also of Portland, for secre
tary; and Jim Ferguson, Pendle
ton, treasurer.
Another ti9ket that seems to be
complete and well on the way in
campaigning is that headed by
Dick De Pittard, who hails from
McMinnville. Billie Eastman, Sil
verton, is running for the office
of vice-president; Louise Barclay,
Portland, seeks the secretary’s
post; and Bob De Graff, Portland,
is running for treasurer.
The third party is still in a more
or less disorganized state, having
been affected by the withdrawal
of Ahearn. From what informa
tion could be gleaned from those
who are in charge of the candi
dacy of Ray Clapp, Portland, who
is heading the third party, the
group lost its candidate for treas
urer to the Ahearn group, which
later joined forces with Kendall.
The only other member of the
group was Kenneth McKenzie, Til
lamook, who will run against the1
two girls from the other parties.
The candidates for secretary and
treasurer for the Clapp aggrega
tion have not yet been chosen.

Playing of Cellist Is Marked
By Smoothness of Technique
9 By GEORGE BARRON
The concert given yesterday af-1
ternoon by Ferenz Steiner, master ;
cellist, was a revelation of tonal |
beauty and facile finger technique. ]
The graceful curves in phrasing
and the clearness of outlines evi
denced the thorough foundation of
the well-schooled musician.
The first number, Sonate, by A.
Corelli gave an opportunity for
the display of a beautiful lyrical
tone, a thing so necessary in the
thin structure of the works of the
early masters. The ever-entranc
ing “Nina," by Pergolesi was the
encore.
The second group opened with
Mr. Steiner’s own composition,
Romance, Op. 9 No. 1. It proved
to be a very interesting work, rich
f in thematic content. The "Allegro
appasionato,” of Saint Saens, sa
voring of the modern French
school, was well received.
Tarantella, by Popper, a spirited
dance of lighter musical nature,
composed the next group and was
followed by the popular London
derry Air as an encore.
The high point of the recital
was the next number, the Allegro
con brio of Grieg’s Sonate. It was
played with an emotional fire that
gripped the audience.
Mr. Steiner was able to enter
thoroughly into the spirit of the
last composition, “Hungarian
Rhapsodie,” by Liszt-Popper, as it
was the music of his own coun
try. It showed off the technical
skill of the performer to excellent
advantage.
Aurora Potter Underwood was
the very able accompanist.
I
Not Checks, But Dads They Want
This Is a picture of the Dad’s Day committee, as appointed by Hal I’addoek, chairman. They will
handle all arrangements for the entertainment of the horde of Oregon Dads who will visit the eampus
on October 25. Reading from left to right they are: Bob Miller, Hal .Johnson, Wilma Enke, Jack Stipe,
Hal Paddock, Chet Knowlton, Marguerite Tarbeli, Thornton Gale, und Gladys Clausen.
Football World
Loses Colorful
Figure by Death
Passing of Enoch Bagsliaw
Conies as Shock to
Northwest
Enoch Bradshaw, state superin- (
tendent of transportation and for
merly head football coach at the
University of Washington, dropped
dead October 3 in the corridor of
the old capitol building. Appar
ently in normal health he had left
a meeting of his office associates
a short time before. He had pre
viously complained of an “uncom
fortable feeling,” and started to
leave for his room in the hotel
across the street when he was
stricken as he reached the main
floor.
He was found face down at the
head of the central stairs by
George E. Craig, a janitor, and a
physician pronounced death due to
heart attack induced by acute in
digestion.
Well-ioved Character
Bagshaw as everyone knew him
was short, thick set, and looked
every bit the fighter he was. De
spite stories to the contrary, Bag
gy’s football players adored their
fighting leader, who concealed one
of the softest hearts and extreme
loyalty to man behind a deep,
gruff, blunt exterior.
Dies at 46
The “Little Giant,” as he was
known in football circles, was ap
pointed superintendent of trans
portation on March 24, of this
year. It was his first venture into
state politics.
Bagshaw was born 46 years ago
at Flint, Wales, and came to
Washington in 1892. Educated in
public schools, and a graduate of
the University of Washington and
the School of Mines, Baggy was
star quarterback while at the uni
versity, and played on the teams
coached by Gilmore Dobie.

B. A. School Long
Professionalized
Says Dean Faville
Washington Follows Lead
Of Oregon in Dropping
Elementary Courses
When the University of Wash
ington recently announced that its
school-of business would drop a
large number of courses, and
would heaceforth be placed on a
“purely cultural, scientific and
professional basis,” it was not
lighting the way, but was simply
following out a course which the
University of Oregon has been fol
lowing for more than a decade, it
is announced here by David E.
Faville, dean of the school of busi
ness administration. Dean Faville
makes the statement in reply to
many who have asked whether or
not the University here would take
action similar to that at Wash
ington.
“T h e university of Oregon
school of business administration
has been on a professional basis
for many years, and has always
assayed to train business execu
tives and not trade apprentices,"
Dean Faville states. "We have
never had in our curriculum
courses such as those which were
dropped at Washington. We are
glad to have the northern institu
tion back us up in our present
policy.”
Courses in stenography, typing,
elementary bookkeeping, and oth
ers similar were included in those
dropped at Washington, according
to the announcement, and such
subjects as these have never been
offered here.
Kitzmiller Leads

Watts Is Tied for Second
In Points Made
John Kitzmiller, captain of the
Oregon football team, carried over
a touchdown and added two tries
for point against Drake university
last Friday night in Chicago to
hold his lead in the race for indi
vidual point-scoring honors among
the Pacific Coast conference play
ers. To date the agile Dutchman
has a total of 43. Points scored
in both conference and non-confer
ence games are counted.
Don Watts, Kitz’s teammate, is
tied with Marshall Duffield, South
ern California quarterback, for
second place with 30 points.
Try-outs Begin
Thursday Night
For Opening Play
‘Holiday’ Chosen as First
Attraction of Season
At Guild Hall
The first full length play of the
school year, that delightful Amer
ican comedy, "Holiday,” of which
the lovely Ann Harding has made
such an outstanding success re
cently in talking pictures, will be
an all-campus production.
The parts which will be open
for try-out are Linda Seton, Ed
ward Seton, her father; Seton
Crane, her cousin; and Nick Pot
ter.
Linda is a young woman with
charm and a sense of humor. She
is not at all a “flapper,” but a
generous, lively girl capable of
deep feeling.
Linda's father, Edward Seton,
is a well-to-do business man,
kindly and fond of his children,
but accustomed to managing other
people’s affairs.
His nephew, Seton Crane, is a
younger edition of the same sort,
except that he has a rather of
fensive self-conceit.
Nick Potter is a happy-go
lucky young fellow, always the
life of the party, believing in liv
ing life for the enjoyment of the
moment.
Any regularly registered student
who is interested is eligible to try
out at Guild theatre this coming
Thursday at 7:30.
Copies of the play, with a mem
orandum of trial scenes, will be
on reserve at the English reserve
desk in the old library, for those
who wish to look it over.
If it is possible, Mrs. Ottilie
Turnbull Seybolt, director, asks
that those interested sign up on
the bulletin inside 105 Johnson
hall.

Harris of Eugene gave a fine
speech commending the distin
guished guest.”
Homer Angell, ’00, president of
the Alumni association, was
toastmaster. Albert Gillette, for
mer Oregon student and at present
connected with KGW, sang during
the dinner. The broadcast of the
Oregon-Drake game was heard
during the first part of the eve

Guests from Eugene included:
Judge and Mrs. Harris, President
Arnold Bennett Hall, Mr. and Mrs.
Paul Ager, Margaret Boyer, and

Nominee Scheduled
For Tomorrow
Lester Adams, editorial director
of the Portland Telegram, will ad
dress Dean Eric W. Allen's 9
o’clock class in editing this morn
ing on aspects of the Oregon gub

lieu of the candidate himself, who
was unable to be present.
It was planned to give a special
luncheon or breakfast in Mr.
Adams’ honor, with Sigma Delta
Chi, national professional journal
ism honorary, as the host, but on
account of a conflict of dates with
the visit of Phil Metschan, repub
lican candidate for governor, this
was found impossible.
Phil Metschan, republican can
didate for governor, will be on the
campus tomorrow morning to ad
dress Sigma Delta Chi and all oth
ers wishing to attend, at a break
fast meeting at the Anchorage.
The hour is set for 8 o’clock.
Both talks are open to the pub
lic, according to T. Neil Taylor,
Sigma Delta Chi president. Those
planning to hear them should get
in touch with the dean’s office,
school of journalism.
Negotiations with Edward Bailey,
Democratic nominee for governor,
are in progress, and it is expected
that he will appear before the class
in the near future. The students
are asking the three candidates to
come to Eugene and present their
views, political and economic, in
order that the students may be
come more closely acquainted with
the developments and issues of the
campaigns.

Stude’s Wedding
Proves Mistake
"This is the society editor of
the Emerald speaking. Have
there been any engagements or
marriages at your house this
summer?”
"Let's see. Yes. Bill Dashney
married a Miss McDitch of Co
quille, and are now trying to
double tile double duties of mar
ried life and school. They're
very happy, too."
Thus goes the story of how
the Emerald's society editor was
led astray, and how the Emer
ald happened to report the fic
ticious marriage of Bill and the
young lady from Coquille.
Somebody, we’ll wager, is still
laughing up their sleeve over
their little joke. But it's not
Bill. He says that Dashney,
Inc., has gone down 20 points
since the item appeared. The
Emerald society editor declares
that from now on all items will
be checked and double-checked.

Registration Now
Reveals Big Gain
2195 Reported Enrolled at
U. of O. This Term
Registration at the University
of Oregon will not only reach the
figure of the fall term a year ago,
but will show a substantial gain,
according to figures release'1 by
Earl M. Pallett, executive secre
tary and registrar. Last year en
rollment fell a few short of
3,000 for the first term, while this
year, with students still entering
at the rate of several a day, the
total is already 2945. At this time
last year the total was 2887.
Gain in new students will be ap
proximately 100, and when all
graduate students are registered,
may be higher yet. Mr. Pallett
says. To date an even 1200 in this
classification have registered, com
pared to 1126 at this time last

Big Rally At

Greet Team
Victorious Webfoots To Be
Welcomed at Villard
By Student Body
Portland Plans Reception
For Members of Squad
Tins Morning
After a aeries of rousing recep
tions received during the course
of their triumphal return from a
Brian Mlinnaugh|
jver the Drake
Bulldogs at Chi
■ago last Friday
light, the 26
Oregon Webfoot
iootball men, un
ier the watchful
;yes of Coach
Clarence W.
Spears and Bill
Hayward, train
er, will arrive in
Eugene at 12
j’clock today to
•eceive the great
est reception that
has been tendered any returning
Oregon football team.
Plans for the mammoth rally,
which will be held on the north
steps of Villard hall,, have been
carefully worked out by Brian
Mimnaugh, chairman of the rally
committee, and he is certain that
with the support of the entire stu
dent body the demonstration will
be the success that the plans al
ready made seem to indicate.
House managers have been re
quested by Mimnaugh to delay the
time of their noon meal until 12:30
in order that sufficient time may
be given to the rally.
Playing a prominent part in the
big gathering will be the Univer
sity band, 62 strong. This will
be their last appearance before
the organization leaves for Seat
tle, where they will take part in
the program to arouse interest in
the Oregon-Washington game.
Bill Knox, who has handled the
noise end of many other rallies
and knows his business, has been
entrusted with this responsibility
and promises plenty of noise-mak
ing machinery at the reception,
including the old reliable fire-en
gine.
According to word received from
the train on which the victorious
eleven is returning, n huge recep
tion is to be tendered the players
this morning in Portland, where
they will be met by a committee
consisting of Mayor Baker of
Portland, Governor Norblad, and
Aaron Frank, chairman of the
Business Men's Booster commit
tee. The mental attitude of the
team is good, according to the re
port from the VVebfoot special, and
the kind of reception that is tend
ered them on their return from
this, the first intersectional vic
tory since 1916, will go a longi
wa,y3 toward determining their
mental attitude for the big game
on the 18th.
Dean Sheldon Speaks

Henry D. Sheldon, dean of the
school of education, left for Sa

will address the Marion County
Teachers’ Institute.
“Civis” is the title of Dean Shel

fore the entire gathering. He will
also speak to the English section
on "Slang.”
Crew May Become Sport at
University, Says Mr. Steele
It will be possible for the Uni
versity of Oregon to add crew to
its list of major sports when the
canalization of the Willamette
river is complete, according to a
statement by F. S. Steele, secre
tary and manager of the Eugene
Chamber of 'Commerce. M
Following is Steele’s letter:
"When the Willamette river is
canalized, any craft vyill have a
right to use it for crew practice.
Of course, we do not know at this
time, ho wlong a stretch of water
there will be between the locks.
It is our opinion, however, that
there should be ample room for
crew races."
The canal will offer a wide,
straight course to make crew rac
ing safe and worthwhile. Surveys
are being made this week, and
there seem to be no reasons why
Oregon should not place crew in
its athletic curriculum. California,
Washington, Oregon State, and
Sacramento Junior college would
be possible western opponents.
It is understood that <the canal
may be constructed over the cross
country route via Monroe to Eu
gene instea4 of using the Willam
ette course. If that idea material
izes, University of Oregon would
have one of the finest raceways
in the country. There would be
few curves to mar the speed of
the shells contesting.
Many colleges in the East boast
ing crews lack the natural advan
tages the Webfoots have at their
front entrance. Cost and upkeep
of the shells seems to be the great
est disadvantage of the sport, ac
cording to reports from colleges
sponsoring crew.
