Study of Thyroid Is Published In Southern Paper Edna Spenker, senior in sociol ogy, has had her paper on thyroid disorder published in the Journal of Social Forces of the University of North Carolina, it was revealed yesterday. The name of the arti cle is "Quantitative Evidence of the Effect of Thyroid Disorder Upon the Birth-Rate.” Miss Spenker was assisted in her work by Dr. L. S. Cressman, pro fessor of sociology, with whom she collaborated on a previous study on thyroid disorder which is being i printed in the Human Biology of Johns Hopkins university. The article shows that when thy roid disorder is increased the ten dency is for the birth rate to de crease. Clinical evidence has sug gested this but previously no quan titative studies have been made. Miss Spenker gathered her ma terial from the United States Sta tistics for 1920 and a report of the surgeon-general’s office of the United States army showing inci dence of goiter in drafted men. The Journal in which the article is published is one of the two out standing magazines on social sci ences, the other being the Journal of Sociology. At present Miss Spenker is working on a statistical analysis of the effect of economical condi tions on expenditures for public poor relief in Lane county.

SPORT SPATTER SPOT DOPE ON ►PORT NEWS By Esther Hayden With the ascendancy of the women for one day on the Emerald staff, the Philograms, sponsored by Phil Cogswell, became a femi nine “Phyllisograms,” was cast out by the aforesaid suddenly irate sports editor, and retitled “Sports Spatter.” In keeping with the sheet, the column will today be devoted to amazonian participa tion in sports. Women have been constantly improving in sports in the past years, and while they can never hope to compete with the champions of the masculine world, still there are many women who can put up a stiff game of golf or a smashing game of tennis, prov ing herself a competent opponent, to any man. The field of sports hold many feminine names, colorful and re nowned for championship playing. While women do not seem to excel in mass playing, yet in the sports requiring individual skill their names are prominent. Few will ad mit ignorance of Helen Wills Moody’s remarkable racket work; of Glenna Collett’s miraculous golf swings; of Helene Madison’s am phibious performances; and any number of other women who have developed sporting skills to high degrees. In the same manner exceptional skill in sports has been displayed by women on the Oregon campus. Frances Haberlach, W. A. A. prexy and last year’s tennis star, can smash a wicked ball over the net. Dorothy MacEean can pitch and bat a ball that has enough speed and curves to make any man sit up and take notice. Vivian Coss plays a brand of basketball quite reminiscent of Billy Keenan, quick, light, and tricky. Both Hellen Dun shee and Edith Jessop are swim mers of note, having endurance, form, and speed. No one can say that the women on the Oregon campus merely play at sports, either. They play more carefully than do the men, but they play just as hard and just as intensely in proportion. For ex ample, Vivian Coss fractured two ankle bones while playing basket ball; Virginia Grone wrenched her arm severely in a speedball game; Frances Haberlach slipped a carti lege in her knee also in a speedball game; and Jane Warner sprained her back in a fall from a horse. Varsity Netmen Defeat Frosh in Match Yesterday Teams Will Meet in Second Contest at Three Today By FRANCES TAYLOR Upsetting dope, the varsity ten nis team, consisting of Jack Rhine and Joe Kalisky, won a none-too easy victory yesterday over the frosh team, Bob Johnson and Don Lewis. The first set was won by the frosh with a score of 6-4. Al though playing was very evenly matched, spectators picked the frosh as winner. In the second set Rhine, with brainy playing, finally outwitted the frosh to take the set, 13-11, for the varsity. Johnson and Lewis in the final set became slightly rushed and at tempted to make every ball count. This was probably the reason for losing the set 6-2, giving the match to the varsity. Rhine’s jockeying to get his op ponents out of position and his ex cellent placements were perhaps the outstanding features of the game. Kalisky appeared to be slightly off form, and only occa sionally did his steaming forehand come into action. Bob Johnson’s playing was marked by a perfection of stroke that is unusual in players of his o •#/•••• -u - \ ° • tiring out the «?* «, golf outfits - o and let us make them new - - - Cleaning of Distinction Eugene Laundry Phone 123 experience. He is said to have the most perfect junior backhand on the coast, and with this he has an unusual ability to smash a bounced lob. A thoroughly experienced player, Lewis played a steady but not outstanding- game. Another match between the var sity and frosh will be played today on the faculty tennis courts at 3 o’clock. Frosh, Rooks To Play Baseball Here Today The first of a four-game series will be played between the frosh baseball nine and the O. S. C. rooks this afternoon at 4 o’clock on Reinhart field. Although the squad has been very successful in pre-season games, this will be the first real test of their ability. Corvallis is reported to have an unusually strong rook team. Prince Callison, frosh baseball mentor, has been putting the squad through a hard workout this week, matching them in sev eral tilts against the varsity: At present the main squad con sists of Ike Donin, Don Weed, Jack Robertson, Micky Vale, Dick Gold thwaite, Michael Balkovich, A1 McKelligon, Harry McCall, Vin cent Gates, Charles Van Dine, Bill Lynds, Carol Hallen, Harold Ol son, and Kenneth Norval. All of these men were outstanding stars during their high school careers. Webfoot Nine To Battle Huskies on Ball Field Today Six Games in Seven Days Feature Northern Road Trip The Webfoot baseball team started on a tour of the northern colleges last' night at 6 o'clock when they entrained for Seattle, where they will play the Huskies this afternoon and tomorrow af ternoon. Billy Reinhart, who has selected a group of 14 men, not including Tom Dunham, manager, will take his men after the University of Washington games to Moscow where they will encounter the Ida ho Vandals on Monday and Tues day. They will battle with the Washington State Cougars at Pullman on Wednesday and Thurs day. With such a schedule, a prac tically steady travel will be in sured, and exercise will be at a minimum. Although the University of Washington has a record at its belt of seven victories and no de feats, still Oregon is not without confidence, bearing in mind the narrow last-minute margin by which the Huskies defeated them last Saturday, and the Friday game which was lost only through the loss of Dave Bloom, pitcher. The players selected to make the trip were: Lee Chester, first base; Johnny Londahl, second base; Her mit Stevens, shortstop; Cliff Pot ter, third base; Brian Mimnaugh, Vern Arnett, and Kramer Barnes, outfielders; Roy Shaneman, catch er; Ken Scales, Edmund Charles and Dave Bloom, pitchers; Chappie King and Slug Palmer, substitutes. Mimnaugh will not make the en tire tour, but will return imme diately after the Seattle games. Psychologists Win in Double-Header Brawl A double-header game, played between the psychology and geol ogy kittenball sluggers yesterday afternoon, resulted in a double win for the psychology department with scores of 8 to 5 and 11 to 10. Doctors Taylor and Seashore' starred for the psychology depart ment, and Doctors Smith and Hodge showed their merit on the geology team. Mr. Dukek, who umpired the game, went into im mediate hiding afterwards, ac cording to Ivan McCollum, man ager of the psych team. By statement of the players, the first game was usual and ordi nary, however the second one was a controlled experiment to verify the results of the first experiment. It was conducted according to true scientific procedure. Sam Manerud Thinks Girls Are Better Riders Than Men Watch your horse just as closely as he is always watching you, and no doubt you will be a successful rider,” suggests Sam Manerud, owner of the Bangs riding acad emy. “A horse is smart. He will take advantage of y<5u if he can. He is always looking for the mo ment when he can turn and make a run for the barn. Often people think that a horse is just as me chanically unemotional as a car, and then is when they get their big j surprise. That is just about the i time when he makes a break for it. The inexperienced rider will then become frightened and convey a great sense of nervousness to the horse which gets him really riled. Then is when your runaway be gins. If you keep your head you are sitting pretty—if you don’t, you are sitting embarrassedly. [ ‘‘Practically all of the people ; who ride here are college students, j Of this groupp95 per cent are girls. J On th# whole, girls are the best riders and are easier to teach than the men. We don’t have nearly such good luck with the men. Per haps they are a little too satisfied ' and unwilling to admit an ignor ance. j ‘‘Maybe the students can’t teach the professors anything in the class rooms, but they certainly can show them something about horses. With the exception of the professors in the physical education department, the instructors are n{A very good horsemen. I can’t acco int for this. Of course, I believe ‘ hat they ought to have more practice. There 1 is nothing like a good horseback ride in the morning to keep a man in the best of spirits for th ■ rest of the day. Maybe at first here will be a little discomfort in get ting around, but after riding a 'ew times, this will not be noticed,” Mr. Manerud said. “Don’t feel badly if you do not yet know how to ride,” continued Mr. Manerud. “Don’t ever feei that you are too old to learn. People who have ridden for years form habits that are very bad and hard to break. We take the inexper ienced person and put him on a horse, and he comes out a better rider than many a so-called ‘ex pert.’ I really believe that you stand a better chance of being a good rider if you have never had a great deal of experience.” Four years ago, Mr. Manerud was in the road construction busi ness. His house and barn were sit uated at Sixteenth and Alder, where the Delta Gamma house now stands. He rented his barn to Abe Bangs, who ran( the acad emy. Then he bought Mr. Bangs out and moved the barn the fol lowing summer to its present lo cation. Two years ago Mr. Man erud built a sawdut ring at a cost of $800. Last summer he rebuilt his bam at a cost of $2,000. It how has room for 31 head of horses. At present, however, there are only 18 head there. Commerce Honorary Picks Best Freshman Otto F. Vonderheit, freshman in business administration, has been judged the outstanding freshman in the business administration school by Beta Gamma Sigma, na tional scholastic honorary in busi ness administration. Vonderheit, who is working his way through school, made 79 points winter term. He carries 17 hours of work and is a nWiber of the freshman debate squad. He also turns out for track. The decision is not based solely on scholarship, but considers also personality and character. Each year the name of the freshman chosen is engraved on a plaque which hangs in the school of busi- j ness administration. Vaulting Secrets Disclosed By Oregon Track Champion I How to pole vault in one easy lesson was demonstrated by Bobby Robinson, varsity trackman, yes terday afternoon to a co-ed re porter, who attempted to learn the intricacies of maneuvering the hu man body over a bar 14 feet from the ground. Because of an injury to his knee, sustained last week in practice, he had to give the ex hibition through the medium of words. With only a light bamboo pole and a set of well - controlled muscles to vault him into the air and drop him safely on the other side of the bar, Robinson, who is expected to break the world record some of these days, has come within seven inches of the present record. “To spectators viewing pole vaulting on exhibition in the fin ished form, it appears as all one motion,” he explained. “However, the action consists of three dis tinct phases.” The first phase pointed out by the varsity veteran to would-be jumpers is the run, in which the vaulter gets up maximum speed within a short distance. The next step consists of the swing-up, when the vaulter puts the pole in the “box," reaches for maximum height, and swings—not jumps— in an endeavor to get his feet as high over his head as possible. Momentum from the run and swing carries him above the cross bar. At that point the jumper gives a vigorous scissor kick with his feet, which turns his body Gocoanut Grove Has Manila University Band Ten University of Manila boys will be on the campus Friday and Saturday to play for special danc es at the Cocoanut Grove. The ten-piece Filipino band is making a tour of the principal col lege towns in the United States. New Volumes Added To Law Libe Shelves The University law library re ceived Monday a gift sent by Ed ward W. Gillingham, state supreme court librarian, of 224 volumes of session laws of almost all the states in the Union. The volumes are duplicates at the state supreme court library, but will nevertheless prove very valuable in helping to complete the files of the University law library. They will become a part of the law library in the Oregon building, though now are in tjie old library for tabulation. Session laws of almost any state can be found, though the volumes from any one state are usually not comprehensive, but scattered over around to face the bar while up side-down. The last phase is a simultaneous pressing up with the arms as the body takes on a jack-knife posi tion. “Of course, when one is in the air,” Bob smiled, “there’s nothing to do but come down.” "Does it hurt to fall? Well, I'd much prefer to fall from 14 feet 6 inches than 12 feet 6 inches!” Competition was admitted by the bronzed athlete to be an essen j tial stimulus, for he has never gone higher than 12% feet in prac tice, while last July in Vancouver, B. C., he cleared 13% feet, break ing the Canadian record. He "also has set a Northwest record of 13 feet 1% inches. In the contest with the Univer sity of Washington Saturday, Bob was expected to take first place, but the outcome remains in doubt now that he is handicapped with an injured knee. By the time the O. S. C.-Oregon meet comes off next week-end, he hopes to be in shape to attempt a new Northwest record. Although this is Bob’s last sea son of collegiate sports, having vaulted for three years on the var sity squad and one on the fresh man, he intends to stay in compe tition long enough to enter the 1932 Olympics at Los Angeles. Bill Hayward has big hopes for the Oregon vaulter’s setting up a world record, if he keeps up the same ratio of Increasing his jump six inches every year. a number of years. The oldest vol ume is “Special Laws of Massa chusetts, 1849-’53,” and the books date from that age to the present. According to Mrs. Jacquoise Kertley Learned, University law li brarian, the books are a valuable addition to the law library and ma jors will find them a great aid.
