1 < The Emerald ♦ SCORE BOARD By Phil Cogswell Oregon Swimming Team Has Possibilities Jack Hewitt is having his prob lems as coach of the varsity swim ming team, but in spite of them, his squad is coming along well. One thing that is all in Jack’s favor is the trip which the team will take to California. This trip is something the fellows will work for. Last year there was no such incentive. As far as material is concerned, tl»e Webfoots have a fairly strong squad. There is a weakness among the backstrokers, none yet have turned in a performance anywhere near meet winning time. John Al len, two-year letterman in this event has been ill and has not been able to get in condition. There are no other veterans out for this event. Then another problem prevails among the divers. Don Neer, a let ter man, and one of the outstand ing divers on the coast, was being relied upon to furnish the team with at least one winner. But Don has quit school and gone to Ha waii or some other place which doesn’t help the Webfoots any. In the dashes, breast-strokes and distance races, Oregon will be fair ly strong. Hewitt took some time trials last night, the first of the season, and although he didn't want them published, he admitted they were pretty good. Hewitt Already Building for Future Jack Hewitt has the idea of building Oregon’s swimming for the future. One of his plans is to encourage the activity in high schools. You see, the Northwest has a tremendous handicap when it comes to competing with the California schools. Down south there are lots of tanks, the kids start swimming as soon as they start to walk, and due to the ( Continued on Page Pour) iDeNeffe Five Drops Frosh In Slow Fray Exp e r i v need Opponents Outplay Yearlings To Vi in T3-35 Twenty-Eight Folds Called During Contest; Wilson Gets 1(» Points The Oregon freshmen hoopsters received a rough and tumble les son in the gentle art of basketball last night when they dropped a ragged, slow game to DeNeffes, 1 43 to 35. It was a case of too much ex perience on the part of the local amateur outfit. They took the | lead at the very start when Wirth, Rubenstein and Epps rang up sev I en points before the frosh could ‘get organized. Wilson finally found the hoop for the yearling's first score only to have Donin and Epps add three points to give DeNeffes a 10 to 2 lead. Freshmen Knot Score The frosh finally came to life and Houghton, Wilson and Lillard tallied field goals to knot the score. Two field goals by Roy Hughes, assistant varsity coach, gave DeNeffes a lead which they kept the remainder of the contest. At half time they led 22 to 18. Field goals by Donin, Hughes, and Rubenstein gave the local bas keteers a ten point lead. Although the frosh tried hard they were un able to do more than close up the count a little. Time after time Lillard, yearling center, took the tipoff from Epps only to have some DeNeffe player take the ball away from the frosh. The year ling’s passing and shooting was j very erratic and they missed enough shots to win any game. Wilson Is Star Wilson, lanky forward, was the individual star of the freshmen with 14 points to his credit. Hough ; ton, with seven, was a close sec- 1 ' ond. Mark Temple played a con- , sistant game at guard and Lillard , showed flashes of form, j Max Rubenstein scored 10 points to lead the DeNeffe outfit. Wirth, former Southern Oregon Normal star, scored eight points to follow ! him. The game was very rough and Referee Chappie King called 28 fouls. Wilson. Rubenstein, Wirth and Donin all received four per sonals, the limit. The following men will accom pany Coach Prince Callison to Sa lem tonight where the frosh will 1 tangle with the Salem high school (team: Jim Watts, Lis Wilson, I Mark Temple.

The taxes on the Oregon campus range from $200 to $1000 a year. The committee from the house managers’ association on this cam pus will keep in touch with Mr. Angell in order that the associa tion may be notified at any time of the progress of the bill, or of any occasion arising in which they may help to further the bill. The suggestion was made at a special meeting called last Tues day that the house-managers of the several organizations on the campus should communicate with their alumni and parents, in order that they may co-operate and sup port the bill.

MAKING ROUNDS WITH NEWS EDITORS AT MEET ject of lotteries was up. It had just been learned from Mr. Jones that printing the prize-winners at bridge parties is against the lot tery laws. “How about golf?” came a voice from the rear of the room. Someone recognized the tones of Mr. Brodie. “Well,” was the reply, “if it’s your game, it’s entirely a matter of chance.” Mr. Brodie doesn’t think highly enough of his golf to continue the discussion. 3: * 3! It isn’t so long since Anna Jer zyk was writing features for the Emerald. She’s here at the confer ence, having come from Rainier, where she helps A. E. Veatch get out the Review. Miss Jerzyk par ticipated in the discussion, telling her fellow-journalists what a job it is to get the right kind of news from the ministers. * * * Elbert Bede, genial sage of Cot tage Grove, is here nursing a sore hand he hurt in the Sentinel shop when a glass door fell on it. El bert came down from Salem, where he is reading clerk of the house during the legislative session. * * * William H. Warren, Sunday edi tor of the Oregonian, and Mrs. Warren were on the campus for the first time. Mr. Warren was on the program, iand Mrs. Warren came along to see that he made his schedules and got back to Port land in time to attend their daugh ter's graduation from Washington high school, Portland, tonight. They both had warm words for the appearance of the Oregon campus. Their son, Larry, is editor of the O. S. C. Barometer. * * * E. E. Brodie, United States min ister to Finland, selected his vaca tion period to synchronize with the conference dates, thereby giving his many old cronies in Oregon journalism a chance to chat with him. Of course, incidentally, he misses a bit of Finland winter, which, he reports, is almost as cold as that of our own Inland Empire. He will be in Oregon for two more weeks. Swimming Regulations Revised for Girls’ Pool A change has been made in hours for open swimming in the women’s pool, according to an an nouncement given out by Miss Ernestine Troemel, women's phys ical education instructor. The hours, which were formerly 5 o'clock every afternoon, have been changed to 5 o'clock on Mon day, Wednesday, and Friday, and 4 o’clock on Tuesday and Thurs day. This change has been made to accommodate the men's diving team, which uses the pool at 5 every Tuesday and Thursday. Any girl who is interested in swimming is requested to turn out at. these open swimming hours to practice. Life guards will be in attendance and will give in struction to anyone desiring it.

VIANY DESIRE TEACHING POSITIONS IN OREGON (Continued from l'titjc One) \ssuming ‘‘proper training" to mean the standard normal or col lege requirement, he found that ?.mong the teachers new to the profession last year the number of poorly trained teachers was some what alarming. For instance, in one-room schools only 45 per cent of the new teachers last year were adequately trained. The propor tion rises, as the schools enlarge, to 01 per cent in the two-teacher schools, and 60 per cent in the three-or-more teacher schools. The proportion of ail types of teachers, old and new, who were adequately trained, was 43 per cent in one-room schools, 52 per per cent in two-teacher schools, 72 per cent in those with three oi more teachers, 01 per cent among elementary principals, with a to tal percentage of 01, for adequate ly prepared elementary teacher; in Oregon last year. In secondary schools the per |centages are higher, running 3f per cent in junior high, 81 per cenl in senior high, 86 per cent in four year high, 73 per cent in higt school principals, and a total of 7i per cent adequately prepared sec ondary teachers in Oregon. The weakness of the present sys tem is due, Dr. Huffaker believes to the fact that teachers can re enter the teaching profession bj the examination route, if they have ever held an Oregon certificate regardless if it was ever used oi not, and regardless of the amount of training it represents, and ti the fact that teachers may qualify by examination for positions foi which they have not been suffi ciently trained. For instance, the most comprehensive certificate the life is based on examination and gives the holder the privilege to teach in any elementary, junior senior, or four-year high school. Dr. Huffaker points out that Oregon has now reached a positior where it could afford to abandon the examination method of certifi cation and could insist upon spe cial certificates for specialized groups. Standards are consistently being raised, however. Last year the re quirement was 48 weeks in a nor mal or 7 terms in college. Froir January, 1931 to 1933, it will bi 00 weeks in normal, and 8 term: | in college, and after that, 72 nor j mal weeks and 3 years in college ■ r 9 terms. However, teachers maj I still enter by examination.
