Kappa Sigma and the Phi Deits
emerged victorious in the opening
matches of the intramural hand
ball tournament yesterday. The
former took two contests from the
SAE squad without tasting defeat.
The Phi Delt aggregation beat the
SPE handballists, two out of
three.
In the Kappa Sig-SAE contests,
Warren Cress of the victors beat
Harold Blackburn and lost not a
single point to win, 21-0, 21-0. Tom
Johnson and Bob Deavers, Kappa
Sig doubles team, edged out a vic
tory over John Hamilton and
Chappie King, 19-21, 21-3, 22-20.
Another singles match, which was
discontinued when the results of
the other two contests became
known, ended at an impasse, Jack
Edlefsen of Kappa Sig and A1
Phillips of the SAE team each tak
ing one set.
Phi Delts Victorious
In the Phi Delt-SPE rivalry,
Lawrence Roof won the sole SPE
victory by trouncing John Finley,
21-6, 21-6. El Edwards of the vic
torious Phi Delts, and Art Riehl,
a SPE performer, put on what
looked like a Mutt and Jeff act,
Mutt in the person of Edwards
beating the smaller Jeff by a score
of 21-9, 21-19. Cliff Horner and
Ferd Fletcher of the victors had
an easy time in disposing of A1
Schmidt and Jack Rollwage, 21-6
21-7.
Some of the contestants showed
a lack of practice, Earl Boushey,
in charge of the tournament, said,
but he expects better competition
as play advances.
SUBSCRIPTION GIVEN
The plea of the library for mag
azines has been answered by one
lone contribution to date. A six
months’ subscription for the At
lantic Monthly has been submitted.
Rumor has it that M. H. Douglass,
the University librarian, himself
made this single donation. Oth
ers, however, are expected in the
near future.

the varsity aquatic squad, when
they issued a call for the yearling
natators yesterday. About 20 an
swered the summons.
Very few workouts have shown
that the frosh mermen are willing
to undergo some hard work to get
in condition. Since no records of
the times have been taken, Hewitt
and Foster say that the material
is of an unknown quantity and
must prove its mettle in competi

Last week El
bert Sellars, wh<
.holds the distinc
tion of havinj
maue me iastesi ume lor tne two
mile race on the Pacific coas
dropped out of school and will bi
lost to the Washington track squat
for the coming season. Sellars se:
the mark of 9:27.3 in 1929 at Cor
vallis in a dual meet between the
Huskies and Oregon State. Th<
conference record is held by Arnj
Gillette of the University of Mon
tana who ran the distance ir
9:30.4 at Palo Alto in 1926.
And as if the loss of Sellars
wasn’t enough for one week at
least, Pacific coast conference of
ficials handed down a ruling bar
ring Bob Adams, first-string jave
lin thrower, from further inter
collegiate competition. Basing its
action on Adams’ brief appearance
in 1929, the officials rated Adams
as having three years of competi
tion, although his part in the Palo
Alto carnival was one practice
throw. This one toss so affected
his arm that the coach decided to
keep him out of competition that
year. The conference officials did
n’t see it that way, and so another
possible five-point winner is lost
to coast competition.
Make that order of crying tow
els double for the University of
Washington. Students attending
conference basketball games there
this winter must pay out 25 cents,
in addition to their student body
cards. The free admission privi
lege was revoked by action of the
board of control when it was de
cided that the financial condition
of the A. S. U. W. would not allow
a continuation of the former pol
icy. The underlying reason for the
axtra charge is the surprising fact
that Husky football gate receipts
failed to cover the costs of coach
ing and equipping the team. Word
from Seattle states that assistant
coaches in basketball, baseball and
:rew will be cut from the pay roll.

Ambergris Value
Has Fallen9 Says
“Contrary to the general opin
on, ambergris is not very valu
ible,” said Dr. F. L. Shinn, pro
essor of chemistry, in comment
ng on the discovery of a substance
hought to be ambergris on the
>each at Lakeside, Oregon, a few
lays ago.
Continuing, Dr. Shinn said that
eal ambergris is a wax-like sub
tance given off by whales. It
ormerly was used as a base in
he manufacture of perfumes, but
ynthetic substitutes have practi
cally replaced it. “Consequently,"
le said, “its value has gone down,
ind ten dollars a pound for the
>est grade would be an outside
estimate.”
The possibility that the 200
)ounds of wax-like substance,
Chemistry
gathered by an excited crowd of
searchers after a storm had
washed it up on the beach, is am
bergris, is not great, Dr. Shinn
said. The sample sent has not yet
been received by the department,
but in the past two years, at three
different times, samples have been
received and analyzed, and none
have proven to be ambergris.
He explained that the real ma
terial is scarce, and many things
are mistaken for it.

Although valuable men were lost
! at the beginning of the term, oth
' ers have been working into the va
1 cancies left, and the frosh show
every indication of having a win
' ning combination for the coming
season.
Saturday afternoon the first
real scrimmage of the year for the
yearlings took place with “Fritz”
Kramer's Eugene high school team
forming the opposition. The con
test did not conform to all regu
lations and lasted for two and a
half hours with all players from
both squads getting an opportunity
to work out. An unofficial score
gave the frosh a 63 to 24 advan
tage in the long tussle.
Campf Stars
Although the tilt was not a regu
lation one, it gave the first infor
mation as to how the yearlings
will look under fire. The breaking
and blocking system used by Cal
lison’s men proved very effective
against the prep team, especially
in the first part of the game while
the regulars were working.
Sylvan Campf, forward, was the
outstanding floor man for the
frosh, with Ralph Terjeson, Arne
Lindgren, Bob Miller, and Roland
Rourke working well in the other
four positions on the starting five.
Miller is big and rangy, and with
a little experience will be able to
fill the hole left at center when
big Ted Hansen failed to enter
school this term.
The frosh open their 1932 bas
ketball season at the Igloo next
Friday night when they meet Jef
ferson high school of Portland. On
the following night Callison will
take his squad to Salem where the
yearlings will tangle with Salem
high, runners-up in the state prep
tourney last year.
Press Meet Will
Convene Soon on
State’s Leading Journalists
To Assemble for Annual
Convention
The fourteenth annual Oregon
Press conference will again open
its three-day sessions on the cam
pus January 21, 22, and 23. Ex
perts in all phases of the newspa
per field will be on hand to take
part in the discussions of the Ore
gon editors and publishers, accord
ing to the program released by
Arne G. Roe, field manager of the
State Editorial association and
chairman of the program commit
tee.
Delegates to the Oregon Press
conference will hold their meet
ings in the Journalism building and
Ben R. Litfin, publisher of The
Dalles Chronicle, president of the
conference, will preside over the
meetings. One of the features of
these meetings will be the award
ing of the Sigma Delta Chi cup to
the best weekly newspaper in Ore
gon, which is an annual event
sponsored by the local journalism
professional. The Heppner Gazette
Times was the winner of the cup
this year, it will receive a certifi
cate of merit.
The Oregon State Editorial as
sociation, a business organization
of the publishers, will also hold a
business meeting Saturday morn
ing at which Ralph R. Cronise, co
publisher of the Albany Democrat
Herald, will preside as president.
Another traditional event of the
conference is the annual banquet
scheduled for Friday at the Osburn
hotel, at which Eric W. Allen, dean
of the school of Journalism, will be
toastmaster. Tom Russel, presi
dent of the Eugene chamber of
commerce, will speak, and Quincy
Scott, cartoonist of the Oregonian,
will give a cartoon talk, which has
been predicted to be one of the
high lights of the three-day session
here on the campus.
Slight Pressure
On Japan Needed
To Restore Quiet
^ ii rang Avers Nipponese
Vi onlil Release Grip
On Manchuria
"The effect, of the recent note
regarding the open-door policy and
9 power pact, which Secretary of
State Stimson sent to Japan, will
depend on the subsequent action
taken by the United States,” Wu
Tang, Chinese third year law' stu
dent told the Wesley club at their
meeting 0:30 Sunday evening.
“Should sufficient pressure be
brought to bear toward the Japan
ese government by the United
States, Japan would likely restore
within a reasonable time the status
quo ante of Manchuria existing
before September 18, 1931. Of
course, the Chinese boycott is an
other important factor that may
help cause Japan to withdraw her
troops.
“In 1915, Japan took Shantung
and Kiaochow from China. In the
peace conference of Versailles Ja
pan objected strenuously to the re
turn of this territory to China. Yet,
Japan yielded to world opinion in
1922 when the Washington confer
ence, under the leadership of the
United States, was called. As a re
sult of this conference Japan re
turn Shantung and Kiaoclioa to
China,” Wu Tang continued.
Roger Pfaff, Pacific basin de
bater, briefly expressed the greet
ings sent from the Wesley Foun
dation in Japan, which is partially
supported by the local organiza
tion, of which Pfaff is a member.
Pfaff was a guest of the Japanese
students when he was in Tokyo.
Fewer Magazines Will
Be Bound This Quarter
As the appropriation for binding
magazines and periodicals at the
library has been cut approxi
mately in half, the number of
magazines to be bound this quar
ter is to be.cut proportionately.
Miss Casford, periodical libra
rian, stated yesterday that the
magazines mentioned in the Read
ers’ Guide, the International index
to periodicals, and the education
index are to be given preference
in the selection for binding.
“Nation, New Republic, and the
Saturday Evening Post are con
stantly used,” she stated in ex
plaining how popular the bound
volumes are, “and many others are
very much in demand.”
Miss Casford strongly recom
mends the above mentioned guides
for students who do much study
ing in periodicals.

Professor H. S. Tuttle To
Conduct Study .Research
As a result, of a resolution passed
by the State Teachers’ association,
Professor Harold S. Tuttle of the
education department has been
asked to supervise a research on
character education methods in re
gard to students of the elementary
grades. Some 200 classroom
teachers will be involved in the
study.
The special problem of the re
search is to determine which meth
ods are most effective in establish
ing attitudes of good citizenship.
Results of the research will be
; reported upon at the annual meet
ing of the State Teachers’ associa
j tion next December.
Widely Acclaimed
Operatic Baritone
To Sing Thursday
Soloist Eugberg Received
Training Under Theo.
Lierliammer
Twenty songs, ranging from 16th
century concert through the most
lovely ballads of the German ro
manticists, to the modernistic
work of De Falla, will comprise
the program of Paul Engberg,
young operatic baritone who will
be presented in concert Thursday
night by Phi Beta, women's music
and drama honorary society.
The concert will be given at
8:15 in the Music building audi
torium. Admission will be 50 cents.
Aurora Potter Underwood, a mem
ber of the school of music faculty,
will accompany Engberg.
The soloist’s training has been
the finest available. He studied
for the past five years in Vienna,
appearing frequently in song fes
tivals, concert, and opera through
out Austria, Denmark, and Hun
gary. He will return to Europe to
fulfill operatic engagements in ear
ly February.
The rich variety of Engberg's
programs is the result of long
study under many masters. His
delicacy of interpretation probably
was most fully developed under
Dr. Theo. Lierhammer, under whom
Roland Hayes, celebrated pegro
tenor, received his training.
Engberg’s recitals in the North
west within the past few months
have been marked by a display of
his great dramatic ability, accord
ing to Seattle critics. This ability
Is accounted for by the fact that
his teachers in Copenhagen, Ber
lin, and Vienna were conductors
and performers of opera. Herold,
the leading tenor of northern Eur
ope and a director of the royal
opera, and De Cactis, a former Ka
pelmeister of the Budapesth opera,
were dramatic coaches under
vhom Engberg studied for long pe
riods, and to whom he owes much
of his finesse and artistic expert
ness.

Those of Dramatic Ability
Invited To Undertake
Character Parts
Tryouts for the Studio plays,
presented annually by members of
the classes in play production,
were announced for Friday, Janu
ary 15, by Mrs. Ottilie Seybolt,
head of the drama department.
The tryouts, which will be held at
4 p. m. in Guild theatre, are open
to anyone on the campus who is
interested in drama. Mrs. Seybolt
urged that anyone interested in
dramatics be present.
Each year the classes in play
production produce a group of one
act plays during the winter term.
The plays will be presented to the
campus at weekly matinees begin
ning soon, Mrs. Seybolt said.
Mrs. Seybolt said that there
were several good character parts
open for casting in the plays to
be produced. Particularly she ex
pressed herself desirous r>c having
someone who might qualify as a
large fat man tryout for the char
acter role in the fantasy.
The plays to be presented in
clude “The Intruder" by Mater
ninck, “Will o' the Wisp” by Hal
man, and “The Gooseberry Man
darin” by Ruthenberg. The three
plays will be placed on reserve at
the English desk upstairs in the
old library for anyone who wishes
to read them over before the try
outs. The first two may be found
in a collection, "Short Plays for
Classroom Interpretation,” and the
third in a collection edited by
Isaacs.
Landscaping Is Planned
For Corner of Campus
The northwest cottier of the Ore
gon campus, which has been con
sidered somewhat of an eyesore
for a number of years, is to be
landscaped and brought up to par
with the rest of the campus as
soon as the weather permits, re
ports George York, superintendent
of buildings and grounds.
The plot will be tiled to carry off
the excess water that accumulates
in the lower ground. Shrubs and a
lawn will replace the present
bunchgrass. .
