M. S. A. E. vs. Yeomen i r The ATO quintet battled their way into the finals of the intra mural hoop tourney playoff yes terday, and the S. A. E. squad succeeded in winning the right to play the Yeomen to decide the other finalist. A. T. O. upset S. A. M. in a close battle and knocked the Sammies, who were favored to win, out of the title chase by a score of 14 to 12. S. A. E. trounced the Beta squad, 29 to 9 and demonstrated to the railbirds why they are the favorites to cop the donut crown. In the S. A. M.-A. T. O. contest, the victors started out with a bang and scored five counters before their bewildered opponents could come to. Don McKim, A. T. O. forward, ran wild in the first quarter to score six points and help his team take a commanding lead of 8 to 3 at the finish of the pe riod. The A. T. O. team increased its lead at the end of the half to take an advantage of 11 to 5. The Sam mies got busy in the third session and scored six counters while hold ing their foes to a single tally. As soon as the last period com menced, Les Goldschmidt put in a Sammie foul shot to tie the knot at a 12-12 count. With the teams battling to get hold of the ball, Bill Lake put a long A. T. O. bas ket into the hemp two minutes be fore the game ended. The Sammies had three opportunities to tie the score and take the lead, but they all went astray. The S. A. E.-Beta game was just too much S. A. E. With the Hansen brothers, Paul Bale, Jack Robertson, and Dick Walton mak ing good all kinds of shots, the vic tors outclassed the Beta quintet. Walton commenced the scoring festivities by sinking a basket from the foul line, and the S. A. E.’s took a lead of 5 to 1 at the end of the first quarter. They in creased it to 14 to 3 at’the com pletion of the half and went into the last period leading 22 to 9. Ted Hansen, S. A.

Siegmund Portrait of Washington Arrives at Alpha Delta Pi To commemorate the George Washington bicentennial, 2,000,000 copies of Stuart’s portrait of Washington have been printed and will be distributed to every school room in the United States next year. Stuart was working on this portrait at his death which accounts for the blank space at the bottom of the picture. The first copy to come to the state of Oregon was received last week by the Alpha Delta Pi house. The general distribution of the pic tures is scheduled for February, 1931. Dramatists Work On Presentation Of StudentjPlays More than 50 men and women are at work in the drama depart ment on the two plays now in re hearsal, "The Trojan Women” and “Journey’s End.” About 40 of these are members of the two casts under the direction of Mrs Ottilie Seybolt, head of the drama department. The others are work ing under George Andreini, drama assistant, as costumers, electric ians, designers, scene painters, dy ers, and in other capacities, even to acting as living models. One may look away at any mo ment from the imaginary 1917 world war trenches, now repre sented on Guild hall stage, to find himself confronted by a tall bru nette, or a short, titian blonde modelling the latest 1931 version of the Greek tragic actor of 415 E. C., and awaiting the stamp of approval so that the seamstresses may begin duplicating the design. There will be more than 21 cos tumed in the revival from the Greek. Mrs. Seybolt says tnat she ex pects at any moment to hear the “Armorer’s Song” ringing from the workroom for the shields are yet to be made for the characters Hec tor, Menelaus, and Talthybius and their spear bearers. If the men members of the Guild Hall players or classes in technique of acting seem to be developing a martial tread, they are probably respond ing to the urgent admonition to live their parts as much as possi ble. Girl Scout Head To Give Course in Organization Miss Thelma Mellick, member of the National Board of Girl Scouts at New Yorw who is traveling around the country giving courses in leadership in Girl Scout organ izations, will give a course at this University to girls who are inter ested in Girl Scout work. There will be no fees for taking this course. The first of these meetings for the elementary course will be held Monday, November 30, from 7 to 9 o'clock in the evening in room 21 Gerlinger hall; for the advance course, the first meeting I will be held Tuesday, December 1, ! ‘ TODAY and WEDNESDAY * * * A Risque, Hotsy-Totsy Comedy (I —WITH— KAY FRANCIS—LILY AN TASHMAN JOEL McCREA FORD STERLING in Beauty Secrets of Hollywood ‘AUTO INTOXICATION’ Faramouot News Madigan Grills St. Marys for Webfoot Fray Gaels Ready for Turkey Day Contest Lemon and Yellow in Trim For Annual Big Game; Gee in Lineup MORAGA, Calif., Nov. 23.— (Special to the Emerald.)—St. Mary’s is ready! Coach Slip Mad Slip Madigan i g a n announced that his Gael out fit would be pre pared for the Oregon invaders when they take the field in Kezar s t a dium Thurs day morning in their annual rhank s g i v i n g battle. Last year, the southern team barely managed to eke out a spare 7-6 victory over the Web feet and Dr. Spears is on edge to get back this margin and also end up the present season with a win. This late in the season a victory for the Oregon team would mean all the difference in the World be tween a just fair team and a team that ranks at the top with the best of them. To take St. Mary’s into line would mean that Oregon breaks 2 to 1 against California teams while a loss puts the per centage just the other way. Injured List Vacant Since their defeat at the hands of U. C. L. A., the Gaels have been in intensive practice for their com ing two tilts with Southern Meth odist and the University of Ore gon, and, notwithstanding their two setbacks by the Olympic club and the Bruins, they will be at top form for the Webfeet. Madi *> — gan has learned his sad lesson of putting only four days between two hard games—by losing both of them through the loss of a good part of his regular squad playing the game from the sidelines due to injuries. This week there are no injuries to mar St. Mary’s chances. The much-needed rest in the middle of a tough schedule has worked wonders with the Mo raga outfit and the “Four Horse men” backfield of Beasley, Ahern, Brovelli, and Toscani, of all-Amer ican reputation, will again be seen in action at full strength. WEBFEET START GRIND FOR THURSDAY’S GAME SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 23.— (Special to the Emerald.)—Fresh from a 13-to-6 victory over U. C. L. A. last Saturday in Los An geles, Coach Clarence W. Spears and a squad of 33 Webfeet pulled into town yesterday. Soon after arriving, they left for a secluded spot south of here, where they will remain until Thursday morn ing, when they meet the Galloping Gaels of St. Mary’s in the Kezar stadium here. Doc Spears reported that the Ducks came out of the Bruin con test without a single casualty Leighton Gee, who was kept out of the Los Angeles game because of a strained leg muscle, is rap idly recovering and will show San Francisco grid fans how a footbal should be kicked. Spears Confident The Oregon eleven will work out DIME NITE tonight: The "Four Horsemen” of The Gael Backfield These four gentlemen—left to right, Tosennl, rright half; “Angel7’ Brovelll, fullback; Beasley, left half, and Ahern, quarter—are attempting to duplicate the feats of the original Four Horsemen of Notre Dame this season and will test their mettle against Oregon day after tomorrow. twice before the St. Mary’s con test. The Thanksgiving day game is scheduled to start in the morn ing in order to give spectators an early start for a turkey dinner. Dr. Spears is confident that the Webfeet can keep up their string of impressive showings with a creditable display at San Fran cisco, although the genial Web foot mentor is his usual gloomy self when discussing the possibili ties of a certain victory. In an interview before he left Eugene, Spears gave the Gaels credit as having one of the best teams on the Coast and in a position to give a good account of themselves against any kind of competition. OREGON IMPROVES Oregon Improves Since their early-season defeat of the Trojans, St. Mary's has been one of the primary “points” of the Oregon team and Thursday’s game will no doubt see a repetition of the stirring exhibition of football that these two teams put out here last year. If anything, St. Mary’s has the edge due to the experience of their material and a not-to-be-! forgotten victory over the Univer sity of Southern California which, due to the Trojans’ showing last Saturday, is quite a feather in the cap of the Moraga boys. Never-, theless, football at its best is un- j certain and, with the immense im-j provement shown by Oregon, last Saturday, in comparison with the first time the Northerners were down there, would show that the Gaels have struck a -tartar. Prose and Poetry Croup To Meet at 8 P. M. at Hall Eleanor Wharton, freshman in English, is to lead the discussion of Rabindranath Tagore, Indian poet, at the meeting of Prose and Poetry group of Philomelete tonight from 8 to 9 at Suhan Campbell hall. !Miss Wharton will give a short history of Tagore’s life and work, and several of his poems will be read. All women interested are invited to attend. IN THE PRESS BOX ======= with Walt Baker — HE national interest and the unexpected result of the Notre Dame-University of Southern California game last Saturday stole a little thunder from the Oregon-U. C. L. A. fracas in Los Angeles on the same afternoon. Such is not to be greatly won dered at because of the previous outcome of the Trojan-Webfeet battle—the most clastic result was the small gate of only 15,000 fans that turned out to see the game. But nevertheless, Doc Spears and the boys walked away from there with much of the lost re* spect and reputation that they left behind the first time. It isn’t every team that can come back in the same city in the same season in the manner in which the Oregon squad demonstrated. And the final test of the complete ability of the Ducks to take their beatings in the ordinary course of a season will be the St. Mary’s game day after tomorrow- the third real battle in 12 days. Can they take St. Mary’s? This is the question that the fans from that part of the country as well as those in the North are asking the dopesters. COMPARATIVE SCORES TELL NOTHING You can’t figure football. St. Mary’s beats U. S. C. and yet loses to the Bruins. U. C. L. A. loses to U. S. C. and yet beats St. Mary’s. Oregon turns the trick on the Bruins so what will the Webfeet do to the Moraga Marauders-or vice versa? One way to figure it is ; that the Gaels are 6 points better than S. C„ who is 53 points better than Oregon—result: St. Mary’s 59, Oregon 0. That’s a pretty steep figure for anyone to bank on, so here’s another one. U. S. C. and U. C. L. A. are having their own little fisticuffs over athletic relations and so they refuse Los Angeles the treat of seeing the two teams on the field at the same time. No comparison that way, but the Trojans took Oregon State 30-0 and the Webfeet played them to a scoreless tie, and, figuring in the St. Mary’s apparent 6-point advantage over S. C., the Gaels are only 36 points better than Oregon. Both of these comparative figures appear out of proportion to the distributed strength of the two teams. So while we seem to be in the prediction business, and since we only missed last Saturday’s figure by 7 points, it appears to our no doubt biased eyes that Oregon j is just 6 points better than the Gaels. OREGON HITTING ITS STRIDE This may be biting off just a little bit more than we can chew, but from the looks of comparative performance, she stands as is. Make no mistake, this St. Mary's team has lots of fire and still has enough left in the bag of tricks to put up stiff competition for anyone —but along comes Oregon. The “inexperienced” team that started out the season under such a handicap is no longer in the greenhorn class. Seven top-notch games since the start of the season have put on the finishing touches to a real football machine that can stand up with the best of them and give a good account of itself. Although we have the highest respect for anyone that can do in the Trojans, still this early-season victory and the disadvantage that it lays to Oregon, is more apt to be overridden by this time. U. C. L. A. GAMES GIVE DUCKS EDGE 1 From comparative scores of the U. C. L. A. games of the two schools, the Webfeet are exactly 19 points better than the Gaels— and here is another prognostication that seems to be at odds with the - rest of them. Whatever the pre-game dope that anyone in general j cares to hand out between now and Thursday afternoon, neither one’s a set-up for the other. Providing Oregon wins, the Webfeet are going '1 to have plenty to be thankful for—a whole football season.

Oregon Rooters Yell for Webfeet • In Faraway 'Chi9 Try to imagine a rooting section consisting of three loyal Oregon men in the midst of a crowd of forty-odd thousand football fans! That was recently the position of J. C. Eberhart, '29; James I. John son, '27, and Sture Johnson, ’30, when they attended the North western-IUinois football game in Chicago on October 31. "But,” writes Mr. Eberhart, ‘1 think every one of the forty thou sand there heard our yell when the loud-speakers announced that Oregon had smeared N. Y. U. 14 to 6!” Mr. Eberhart reports that James Johnson is now an attorney in Chicago, and that Sture JohnsoD was visiting him over that week end. Eberhart is the Payne Foun dation fellow in psychology and is doing research study on the atti tudes of delinquent boys in Chi cago. "These phone-booth gatherings of Oregonians,” continued the let ter from Mr. Eberhart, "are full of good times despite the limit in size. I expect to see Ed Manning (M.A. ’30) at Madison, Wisconsin, next week-end.” He also complimented the alum ni magazine, Old Oregon, saying he especially commended the birth and marriage columns. The letter was received by the alumni sec retary. Carol Eberhart was a member of Kappa Sigma, Alpha Delta Sig ma, and Phi Beta Kappa, said Miss Calkins. He was also an Oregon letterman.
