Spears Laying
New Plans for
Halfback Post
Kitzmiller Not Expected To
Be in Line-up Against
Oregon State
Schulz Returns to Position
On Team; Will Replace
Lillie at Guard
With Kitzmiller’s leg still refus
ing to respond to treatment, Doc
Spears is formulating his cam
paign for the O. S. C. game with
out considering the possible recov
ery of his backfield ace. In the
light workout held last night Lon
dahl, Choppie Park, and Wally
Lawrence were all given oppor
tunities at the vacant halfback
post, but none of them has defi
nitely been assigned the difficult
role. No new plays were handed
out by the coach but stress was
laid upon those already in use.
One ray of hope in the clouds
of Oregon’s misfortune was the
return of Irv Schulz to guard. He
was unable to play in the Ucla
game because of injuries and
Jerry Lillie filled in for him. The
rest of the line is slated to be
exactly the same that completely
smothered the tricky Forster and
his mates—Fletcher and Bailey,
ends; Morgan and Christensen,
tackles; Forsta, center, and Col
bert playing the other guard. Lil
lie and Hall are certain to get into
action and may even start.
Jack Erdley is still a favorite
to start at quarterback, although
A1 Browne and Clyde Gilbert are
providing plenty of competition.
Red Rotenberg’s gallops around
end against the Bruins has left
him in possession of one halfback
post, while Moeller has been shift
ed back to full. Until Kitzmiller’s
injury Laurence was listed as a
line bucker, but now he may play
opposite Rotenberg. Parke, one of
the two other applicants for Kitz's
job, was a member of the squad
two years ago, but has only been
turning out the last two weeks.
Students Warned
To Obtain Tickets
For G ame E arly
Yesterday evening only 300 stu
dent tickets to the Oregon-Oregon
State game had been sold, accord
ing to an announcement from the
University Co-op. All students are
warned to come early as there will
undoubtedly be a last minute rush.
Students are also warned by
“Doc” Robnett, assistant graduate
manager, that student body tickets
presented with gate tickets will be
essential in gaining admittance to
the game.
There are still a very few side
line, uncovered reserved seats left
for $2. Today will be the last
chance to get them.
Nice Rock Wanted
By Alamo Woman
(tTOLEASE send me n niee
rock,” said a fetter re
ceived by the geology depart
ment yesterday from a woman
in Alamo, Georgia. “I am build
ing a lily pool in a rock garden,
and am trying to get a rock
from every state in the union.
I’ve got rocks from all but sev
en states now, and they’ve all
been awfully nice. I’m not ask
ing for a very big rock.”
The letter was originally ad
dressed to the secretary of state
at Salem but was forwarded
here. A rock has already been
picked out, a specimen from the
Oregon eoast with several fos
sil shells imbedded in it.
Emerald of Air
Will Broadcast
From Corvallis
Student Radio Talent To
Aid in Pep Frolic
Over KOAC
Plans were completed last night
whereby University of Oregon
radio talent that appears on to
night’s “Emerald of the Air” pro
gram will make a hurried trip to
Corvallis after the broadcast to
help the Oregon Staters put on a
radio pep frolic over station
KOAC. The trip to the neighbor
ing college is being made as one
which will create a congenial feel
ing between the two schools in
preparation for the Webfoot
Beaver football classic next Satur
day.
In addition to the radio talent
that will go to Corvallis, a number
of student officials are also plan
ning to accompany the delegation
and also to take part in the radio
hour.
George Cherry, president of the
A. S. U. O. and a principal speaker
on the KOAC program tonight,
said last evening that an effort
had been made for the last two
or three years to bring the Uni
versity of Oregon and Oregon
State college into a more friendly
state of mind, and that this get
together radio program was the
first of a series of projects that
are being organized to establish
more amicable relations between
the two schools.
The local radio talent will be
given a half hour to do their bit
on the KOAC broadcast. Maxine
Glover, Sally Halloway, and Mar
vin Jane Hawkins, popular girls’
trio, will make the journey to the
Oregon State campus. Dale Brown
and Wilbur Thibault, clever piano
and violin pair, will also be in the
caravan. Wally Palmer and Nor
man Johnson, two gents who know
their trumpets, will complete the
cast of radio performers.
These same people will be fea
tured in the regular Thursday
night Emarald-KORE hour. In
addition to this array of talent,

casts, announced last night that

Cleanliness Not Necessary
Says Health Service Doctor
Cleanliness does not constitute a
necessary part in health condi
tions, according to Dr. F. N. Mil
ler, director of the University
health service. “Of course,” says
Mr. Miller, "cleanliness appeals
more strongly to the human tastes,
and we are therefore more inclin
ed to look ilpon the cleaner side of
life as the more abundant in health.
However, research has shown us
that unhealthy conditions are not
brought about by the accumula
tion of dirt, but rather through
channels, which, being more un
noticeable, we are inclined to re
gard with less disfavor.”
Dr. Miller, who is in charge of
the health examinations being
carried on in all the houses on the
campus, says that he does not in
tend to condemn dirty kitchens.
He is primarily interested in the
methods of handling, storing, and
serving the food. “I may stick a
dirty hand into a bowl of soup,”
says the health director, ‘‘and
when that soup is boiled it will be
just as free from germs as other
food which has been preserved
with the utmost care. Of course,
people who knew of the experi
ment wouldn’t relish the idea of
consuming that particular soup,
but nevertheless it would be abso
lutely free from disease.”
Dr. Miller does not sanction un
clean conditions. He is only point
ing out that such conditions do
not rise to the importance to which
popular conception has magnified
them. ‘‘Cleanliness," says the
health doctor, ‘‘is of the utmost
importance to the moral side of
life, but within the realms of
health its effect is limited.”

Appreciation of Services
Brings Certificate to
Portland Man
Aaron M. Frank of Meier and
Frank, Portland, was presented
last week with a lifetime member
ship in the Alumni association by
the Associated Students of the
University of Oregon.
“For the first time in the Uni
versity’s more than 50 years of
existence, the Associated students
have taken it upon themselves to
present a life membership in the
Alumni association to honor you as
an alumnus of the University of
Oregon,” said George Cherry, pres
ident of the Associated students,
in a letter to Mr. Frank. “Only at ;
such a time as this is one conscious
of complete inability to express ap
preciation in a measure even ap- i
proaching the whole-hearted ser
vices you have given.”
Mr. Frank was presented with
the membership in recognition of
his services to the University. He
personally organized and headed
the group of Portland business men ;
who took part in the “Challenge
Day” program before the Oregon
Washington game. They went to
Seattle and challenged the business
men there to attend the game. He
will receive for the rest of his life
the publication “Old Oregon" and
all other alumni services.
A sub-committee of the execu
tive council was chosen to decide
upon the means of expressmg the
students’ appreciation lo Mr.
Frank. Those on the committee
were Jim Dezendorf, chairman,
Bill Whitely, and Reba Brogdon.

of Sigma Delta Chi, profession
al journalism honorary, will hold
forth on the library steps. No
intimation as to what the pro
gram will be has been given to
the press up to a late hour last
night, but from the actions of
the three initiates who have been
scampering from one side of

the affair seems to be taking on
the aspect of a strictly formal
affair.
The performers will be: Thorn

Rifle Match Under
Way This Week
Silver Cup To Be Presented
To Winning Team
The intramural rifle match con
ducted by the military department
is under way this week after an
extension of time from the original
date set for the competition. More
time was granted to allow proper
drill.
The record practice going on at
the present time was started on
Monday and will be completed by
Friday afternoon. In the awarding
cf the trophy, a silver loving cup,
only the scores made by the teams
during this week will be counted.
Each team consists of one coach
and five shooting members. The
course comprises two sighting
shots and then five shots for a
record in each position—prone
sitting, kneeling, and standing.

Rally Scheduled
To Arouse Spirit
For Coming Game
Oregon Not Disheartened
By Injuries to Star
Halfback
The old Oregon fight will show
itself Friday night when rally
minded student rooters parade
through the campus in a demon
stration of pep preparedness for
the Oregon-O. S. C. game. •
The big game rally will start on
the hill at the Fiji corner before
the Frosh-Rook game Friday
night and the rooters will serpen
tine around to the various houses,
picking up additional rooters on
the way. The pep parade is sched
uled to end at the Sigma Chi cor
ner where speeches will be given
and noise makers will cut loose
with their contribution to the rally.
“Oregon students are not dis
heartened at the loss from the
Webfoot line-up of Johnny Kitz
miller,” Brian Mimnaugh, rally
committee chairman, said last
night. "There is plenty of reserve
fight in the team to show O. S. C.
a real cattle Saturday, and we
want the rally Friday night to
prove that.”
WAA To Sponsor Rides
If Women Show Interest
W. A. A. will sponsor a horse
back ride every two weeks for one

Rides will probably be scheduled
on Sunday mornings, and will be
from the Bang’s stables. Part of
the ride may be in the ring, and
the rest on the road, according to
Miss Duncan.

To Hear Arguments
Of Two Nations
Four university students of the
20th century—two from time-mel
lowed England and two from the
yet youthful state of Oregon—put
their wits to clash in debate here
last night over the universal ques
tion, whether the world has more
to fear than to hope from the fur
ther development of machines, and,
by audience vote, the European
team, on the pessimistic side of
the question won.
The English debaters were B. J.
Crehan, University of Liverpool,
and D. Hope Elletson, St. John's
College, Oxford university, here as
representatives of the National
Union of Students of England
which is furtherfhg international
debate. Representing Oregon were
Roger Pfaff, junior, Eugene, and
Errol Sloan, senior, Coquille.
The Englishmen maintained that
the machine future is "drab, weary
and soul-destroying,” while the
Oregonians held that the machine
future will bring a higher stand
ard of living.
Along with a sturdy lot of eco
nomic and cultural argument there
was an accompaniment of polish
and wit that demonstrated that
there exist four, at least, of the
20th century generation whose
creative faculties have not been
trodden down by the machine age.
The audience reached its decision
by a novel means of voting, gen
erally approved by the listeners as
a fairer and more intelligent ex
pression. Ballots were taken be
fore the debate and a check on the
number affirmative and negative
opinion of the audience was taken.
Then, after the debate a check
showed that 71 had changed their
opinion in favor of the English or
affirmative side while 68 had
changed in favor of the Oregonian
side, here were 215 affirmatives
and 263 negatives in the vote be
fore the debate and afterward 259
had not changed their opinion.
Burt Brown Barker, vice-presi
dent of the University of Oregon,
v/as chariman for the evening. The
audience, made up of more than
600 townspeople and students, was
keenly attentive.
Law Faculty Will

ber of the Oregon supreme court
for 21 years from 1909 until his
death. He was born in Yamhill
county, Oregon, in 1847. His par
ents were Oregon pioneers, and his
three brothers were very well
known, one being twice a member
of congress, a second being secre
tary of state of Oregon, and the
third being a physician.

by this corporation. It will make
possible the development of one of
the plans which President Arnold
Bennett Hall has had in mind
since he first came to the Univer
sity several years ago. In addi

that will be made possible by the
funds, the stimulation of the fine

I have long felt it is the duty of
the University to instill in every
student a love for and an appre

To this end we have attempted to
draw students into the school of
music and the school of art, as
well as into departments having
to do with literature. Courses
have been arranged especially for
those who wished to gain an ap
preciation, rather than the ability
to participate creatively in any
certain field,” said Dr. Hall, in a

Oregon’s Fruit Industry Has
Bright Future, Says Burrell
With the growth of the fruit
and vegetable industry shown as
faster in Oregon during the past
30 years than in the United States
as a whole, and on a parity with
the growth in California and
Washington, a bright future for
this industry is predicted for the
state by O. K. Burrell, associate
professor of business administra
tion, in a recent booklet issued
here entitled “An Industrial Audit
of Oregon.”
A very significant fact in the
industry here is that 90 per cent
ol the total production in Oregon
is shipped out of the state, Mr.
Burrell points out. With the mild,
steady, humid climate here that
is unusually adapted to growing of
fruits and vegetables, and with the
development and improvement of
transportation facilities, the mar
ket can be further expanded, it is
believed.
The industry now ranks second
in the state on the basis of wage
earners employed, and fifth on the
basis of value added in manufac
ture, the report states.
The rapid development of the in
dustry, not only in this state but
elsewhere, is due to the enormous
improvement in methods of pre
serving food, to the development
of automatic machinery, and to
the broadening of the markets.
The growth has also been greatly
stimulated by the shifting of the
food processing and preserving
from the family kitchen to the fac
tory. This shift has taken place
partly because of greater purchas
ing power of the people and partly
