Running Plays Ironed Out in Drill Yesterday; Stress Put On Defense Against Air Raid Orangemen Reported at Top Form in Dispatch From Beaver Camp Winding up two weeks of inten sive practice for tomorrow's game with Oregon State, Dqc Spears sent the Webfoot varsity through a long drill yesterday, devoting most of the time to a last-minute ironing out of new running plays and a defense against an expected Beaver passing attack. Continued clear weather buoyed up Spears’ hopes for a dry field, for the crew of workmen have suc ceeded in preparing a firm grid. Unless there is a heavy rain to night, the light Webfoot backs should have plenty of opportunity to show their wares. In case of a muddy field, the heavier Oregon State backs will have all the dope in their favor. Hughes, Nilsson May Play Whether or not Bernie Hughes and Swede Nilsson will play Sat urday still remains a mystery. In case both arc unable to play, Dutch Clark will start at Hughes’ tackle post and Spook Pope will fill Nils son’s position at guard. Leighton Gee, the other Webfoot casualty, is in first-class condition and will do most of the kicking for the Oregon team. Outside of Hughes and Nilsson, the team is in fine shape and needs only the light workout scheduled for today to put them in top shape for tomorrow’s contest. BEAVERS FINISH DRILL OREGON STATE COLLEGE, Corvallis, Nov. 12.— (Special) — From all indications gleaned from practice during the past week, Coach Schisser’s starting backfield Our Food and realize Taste, Quality and Service GOSSER'S for Saturday’s battle with Oregon will consist of Johnny Biancone, quarterback; Hal Joslin and Hal Moe, halfbacks; and Frank Little, fullback. The Beavers wound up their j heavy workout schedule for the i Homecoming fray with a long drill on a defense against the Oregon running attack. The Beavers have j been taking fairly light workouts ! this week, for they were in top physical shape when they met Washington State two weeks ago. The ever-present injury jinx has somehow evaded the Orange camp. Many Seats Construe tetl For U. of O-O.S.C. Game Approximately 500 students will be accommodated in seats now be ing constructed in front of the Oregon rooting section for the game tomorrow, Ronald H. Rob nett, assistant graduate manager, said yesterday. The seats, which will extend onto the track sur rounding the sawdust football field, are only being temporarily built, and will be taken down after the game. Oregon and Oregon State root ing sections will be on opposite sides of the field, Robnett stated. The east side will seat Oregon stu dents, as usual, while the orange and black caps will dominate the west side. Reserve seats will fill the north sections of the east and west grandstands and will be separated from the rooting sections by wood en partitions.

Conference Results From Idea of Oregon Grads It was an idea, but could he put it across ? That was the big problem fac ing A. William Brackett, a stu > dent In journalism at the Univer sity of Washington back in 1920. However, his persistency, a true characteristic of a journalistic personality, won him success. The developing success of this student's dreamed-of ambition will be realized as the second day of the annual P. I. P. A. conference opens here today. Brackett’s plans seemed convinc ing to Dean Eric W. Allen, school | of journalism, and through the ar rangements of the student, various I college and university student pub lications were invited to send a representative to a one-day ses sion on the Oregon campus in No vember, 1920. The session was a thorough dis cussion of college journalism as it applied to the student publications, and as the session was completed the representatives decided to unite themselves with the purpose of closer cooperation between themselves. In doing this a news service for the members was cre ated, which in the college field cor responded to the Associated Press in the newspaper world at large. As the result of the organization Robert Bender, business manager of the University of Washington daily was elected first president of the association. Harry Smith, edi tor of the Emerald at that time, was elected vice-president. Dean Eric W. Allen, Oregon school of journalism, and M. Lyle Spencer, then dean of Washington journal ism school and now president of that institution, were elected as honorary presidents of the associa tion. At that time nine college and university papers and two humor ous publications were represented as members of the association. The schools represented were: | Oregon. California, Oregon State, Reed college, Washington, Wash ington State, Whitman college, : Gonzaga, and the University of | British Columbia. When the association met at i Washington the next year, the plan of having the conference held jointly with that of the associated student body presidents was begun. This joint conference has since been discontinued. At the close of this conference of the P. I. P. A., Floyd Maxwell, editor of the Em erald in that year was elected to preside over the association for the following year. In the third conference held on the California campus the Southern and Rocky Mountain Press asso ciations consolidated with the P. I. P. A. The next annual meeting was held at University of South ern California and this’ wras the first conference in which the man agers of the member publications were invited as delegates. Since that time the conferences have been held on the campuses of Washington, Oregon, Nevada, Cal ifornia, British Columbia, Stan ford", and University of Southern California at Los Angeles. The association has a central new's bureau located at Berkeley, California, and has instituted a collegiate news cut service, as well as offering cooperation n all prob lems. A much better feeling and un derstanding has been developed through the personal contacts that the representatives of the as sociation members have made at these conferences, commented Dean Allen. “I have noticed a marked im provement in the college publica tions, as to the attitude toward each other, since the founding of the press association,” the dean continued. IN THE PRESS BOX = with Walt Baker 3 the day draws to a close and the new day of the Frosh-Rook game comes in, the most proba ble outlook of both the varsity and the fresh man teams is— OREGON. From an mat we can gather the varsity is due to win—backed by the whole campus and the student body as a whole. Doc Spears, in his first ad dress to the student body of the University of Oregon said that “the football team is but a cross section of the student body as a whole and what the students as a whole do, the student body is sure to reflect.” The vice versa is sure to come out in the outcome of any game that the Varsity may play. Here we have a game coming up next Saturday, both Oregon and Oregon State are determined to be on the long end of the score. Both teams can’t win and as for the fin al outcome of the big varsity game will, in all probability be largely dependent upon the weather and the condition of Dr. Spears’ crip ples. % X * ORDER OF THE “O” Oregon SLate as usual is crying about the game conditions.

Trio “Spotlight Idea’’ At 8:50 P.M. essarily hacking the freshman for something that they didn’t do. It would be mighty fine for once if the Barometer, in general and the editorial writers in particular would get the facts straight for a change. In the first place the let termen failed to come up to expec tations and raise cain with the frosh. The order of things is quite a bit different than it possibly is on the O. S. C. campus. The let termen here do not try to enforce traditions that are not in favor with the rest of the campus as perhaps as is the custom of our northern neighbors. There was no hacking on the traditional steps by the lettermen. The president of the organization asked the cooper ation of the freshman class in en forcing the tradition of the root ers’ lids—and they responded to a man. I will defy the Oregon State crepe-hangers to come over here and pick out a freshman who is not wearing a rooters’ lid — for such was the will of the class of ’35 as a whole. As usual we get the general panning in the Barom eter and what it amounts to is just how much we think about the whole affair. Perhaps if they knew what they were talking about, we would pay more atten tion to all the tommyrot that goes on in the columns but as it is, the ' commentary is practically null and void. * * # OREGON TAPERS OFF Doc Spears tapered off for the coming game last night in prac tice and had the boys run through a light signal practice. They have been going at it hard all season and at this crucial time, it is on the books for a complete rest for to day in preparation for the big game tomorrow. Friday, the outfit will run through signals and have a general brushing up on plays with no scrimmage and then the 1 stage will be set for the clash. As has been the ukual cry, weather is the main factor. We have written so much about this item that it’s getting pretty monotonous by this time but all the same, the facts can’t be altered. Oregon can’t be at their best on a wet field; and I Oregon State is at home on that sort of gridiron. From the looks of things at the present time- the whole affair will be of Volstead | vintage. If so, the squads will be 1 on even terms and everybody will have the same footing. HUFFAKER TO SPEAK Dr. C. L. Huffaker of the edu cation department will be the prin cipal speaker at the Parent-Teach er association meeting which is i held to observe American Educa tion week in Monroe tonight. X . Three Houses Top Lists in Subseription Competition Kappas, Chi O's, and Chi Psis Arc Now Leading The Chi Psis, Kappa Gammas, and Chi Omegas are leading hous es to date in the Emerald sub scription drive which has been go ing on for the last few weeks, an nounced Cliff Lord, circulation manager, yesterday. Figures show, said Lord, that the Chi Psis have 9 new subscriptions to their credit, the Kappa Kappa Gammas | 12, and the Chi Omegas 8. With the drive scheduled to end next Monday, November 16, special efforts will be made with home coming alumni this week-end by Emerald representatives. Winners of the pennants offered to organizations sending in the largest new subscription list will be announced in next Tuesday’s Emerald, Lord said. Stehn Divides Pep Band Into Two Concert Groups The University band of 75 pieces ! has been divided into two groups, following the custom of John Stehn, the director, for concert purposes. The band is now in one division of 25 musicians, known as the first band, and a second divi sion of 50 pieces to be known as the second band. The first band is composed of the more experi enced men who will represent the University at all banquets and other indoor affairs. Both groups will give several indoor concerts during winter term, according to Stehn, and weekly outdoor concerts will be given on the mill race during spring term. Selections now being worked upon include “Marche Slave,” by Tchaikowski, selections from "Rose Marie,” by Friml, “March Funebre,” by Mendellsohn, “Wash ington Greys March,” “Echoes from the Metropolitan Opera House,” and "The Whistler and His Dog.” This week the bandsmen are practicing music and formations for the Oregon Homecoming spec tacle on November 14. Stryker Plans Decoration Of Hayward Field at Game Due to a misunderstanding, John Adams was represented in yester day’s Emerald as chairman of the committee to decorate Hayward field. Roger Bailey wishes to cor rect the error, having previously appointed Chuck Stryker to that capacity. The committee has been selected, and everything is in readiness for the final act of decorating. Stryk er comments upon the decorating: “Our decorations have been planned to carry out the congenial spirit between the University and Oregon State, which is the inaug ural theme of this year’s Home coming."
