The right answer: Book value is tlie claim a share of stock has against the assets of a bus iness. What the fall guy wrote: Book value is exactly what one makes of it. A person could read something very hurriedly and not get anything out of it while other persons could do the same and get something out of it. One can read so slowly that his mind is some place else and therefore he would get no •value from the book. -the value is what it says it is. Maybe he was in the wrong class.

M. Gamma hall vs. Beta 5 P. M. The Yeomen and Sherry Ross hall handball squads continued , their winning- tactics yesterday in the intramural handball tourney to attain a place in the semi-finals of the rivalry. The Yeomen beat the Phi Sigs in two out of three matches, and the hall aggregation presented a similar dose to the Sigma Pi Tau handballists. The Vinner of today's match be tween the Yeomen and the Phi ; Delts will make certain of a posi ! tion in the finals of the tourna ment. In the Yeomen-Phi Sig matches, Sol Schneider, Yeomen artist, out played Sheldon Laurance to record a victory by a count of 21-8, 21-7. : Karl Landstrom, Phi Sig star, | chalked up the sole victory for his ; squad when he trounced George ; Stager, who is without the use of one hand due to an injury, to the ' tune of a tally of 21-6, 21-4. The unbeatable Yeomen duo, A1 Schnei j der and Paul Hughes nonchalantly 1 disposed of Frank Harrow and i Clarence Nicholas, 21-1, 21-4.

Six New Men Wearing ; Journalism Honorary Pin Sigma Delta Chi Initiates Group At Sunday Honorary Six men were initiated into Sig ma Delta Chi, national profes sional journalistic fraternity, at the men’s lounge of Gerlinger hall Sunday morning at 9:30. The new members of the organization are Sterling Green, Oscar Munger, Jay Sehorn, Ed Goodnough, Jack Bel linger, and Jack Bauer. A breakfast at the Anchorage followed the initiation ceremonies. Speakers at this affair were Henry N. Fowler, associate editor of the Bend Bulletin, and Hal E. Hoss, secretary of state. Mr. Fowler was editor of the Emerald in 1913-14. BRILLIANT EXCHANGE MAN TO SPEAK HERE (Continued from Page One) Mr. Beck will speak at a combined meeting of the Kiwanis, chamber of commerce, and other business men's clubs down town. Continu ing an extremely full program, he will go from there to the Eugene high school, where he will speak to the students. At 4 o’clock in the afternoon he will meet with the i Associated Women students, and will continue on to Portland on the Shasta at 6:30. I 1 Oregana Issues Last Exhortation To House Officials 'ODAY at 12:40 on the east side of Condon hall, frater nity house managers and mem bers of the interfraternity coun cil will be given a last oppor tunity to have pictures tuken for the Oregana. Twice before this, efforts been made to have these pic tures taken, but in spite of an louncements in the Emerald and telephone calls to each frater nity only a few were present at the announced time and place. The photographer refuses to make any more trips to the campus; consequently it is im perative that every fraternity house manager and every mem ber of the interfraternity coun cil be on hand today at noon. GLEEMEN'S CONCERT IS ENJOYED BY MANY (Continued from 2-age One) written for Rachmaninoff’s “Pre lude in C-sharp Minor,” lost noth ing in the impressiveness it has as a piano solo. As with the piano, it is one of those numbers which can be a bit ludicrous if not interpreted faultlessly. The Gleemen were faultless. Hal Young drew on his operatic arsenal for the first two solos, “Le Reve,” from Massenet's “Manon,” and an aria from Puccini’s “La Boheme” were splendid medium for his clear rich tenor, which com bines a rare quality of vibrant warmth and depth with extreme range. Earl Pallett’e basso-profundo is impressive under any circumstanc es, but when juxtaposed with Hal Young’s tenor it was overpowering. John Stark Evans' adaptation of “Ol’ Black Joe” seemed made for him, and 2000 pairs of hands would not be denied an encore. To those who have followed George Bishop's progress during the past two years, his perform ance as the baritone soloist in "Ol’ Man River” was a triumph. Fault lessly supported by the chorus in Evans’ adaptation of the southern song, he showed vocal power and maturity beyond his years. Bishop faced stiff competition in the solo field Sunday, and was not found wanting. xii ilia acuuuu group mi X oung presented three songs of similar type, but he gave each an inter pretation that 3et it apart. Brac ! co’s “Serenata” he sang with pow er and feeling that would surely have delighted Caruso, who wrote the lyric. Clay’s ever-popular “Songs of Araby” he sang with a wistful beauty that held the crowd hushed, and climaxed the group with Lehmann’s “Ah, Moon of My ! Delight.” In all three songs he i showed himself to be a master of modulation and delicate phrasing. The emotional qualities of his in terpretation he never allowed to lapse into mere sentimentality. Young’s two encores were “Tal lyho” and Kremer’s “Last Hour.” Power and martial vigor marked the last group by the chorus. The 75 voices gave the war-time march ballad, “The Americans Come” a treatment capable of sending a pa triotic thrill through even a war debt maniac. Schumann’s score for Heinrich’s Heine’s “Two Grena i diers” was given with full dramat ic power. Between the two was sandwiched Reichardt’s “When the Roses Bloom,” in which perfect vo cal blending heightened the work’s delicate effects in tone and ex pression. John Stark Evans arranged the beautiful “Serenade” from Rom | berg’s “Student Prince” for Hal Young with chorus accompani ment. It was an effective close to a successful program, and no one left his seat until it had been re peated. Evans’ direction was impressive. One never forgot his presence and his unifying, controlling power, but he made no attempt to dominate the picture.. DONUT CHATS by JOSEPH SASLAVSKY Another intramural tournament, this time in volleyball, was begun yesterday. While play was rather ragged, as was to be expected due to lack of practice and competi tion, it was better than the type of game that started the tourney in 1901. Several of the rules seemed to be bothering the contestants. The two most violated ones were those concerning hitting the net j and coming forward from the back j court to make a kill at the net. i Of the twelve squads that par-, ticipated, the Yeomen and Beta i teams showed the greatest possi- [ bilities, but it is too early to begin making definite predictions as to ; which aggregation of all the en trants will cop the flag. There was quite a little trouble in trying to keep spectators off the floor, but the officials of the tour ney hope that the fans will restrain their ardor enough to keep off the maple. * * * A different intramural tourney, that in handball, is nearing its completion. Only two more days of play remain, with the finals sched uled for Thursday afternoon. Our gnawing curiosity as to whether the Yeomen would add the hand ball title to their already imposing collection has changed to a virtual certainty that they will do so. Their first singles player, Sol Schneider, and their doubles team, composed of A1 Schneider and Paul Hughes, have yet to taste defeat, which is a remote possibility. * * * Six of the proteges of Warren Powell, coach of fencing, put on exhibition matches last night be tween the halves of the Oregon Washington hoop contest. George Hibberd and Norris Porter showed their wares in a battle with the foil. How to beat a foe with an epee was the subject of a demon stration by William Anderson and Lowell Anderson. In a fray that was intended to be funny (we don’t know whether it succeeded or not), George Eennett, with elephantine thrusts of a saber, downed Russell Tinkham, who was the victim of varied forms of assault and battery in- the form of hacking, tackling, and other fancy maneuvers. * * # We had hoped to fill up more space, but what can one do when no additional thoughts or ideas suddenly burst into our craniums? Alas, alack, a kingdom for a thought or more hooey to add line age to this thing. None approach eth ? Finis. New Shelf al Library Will Exhibit Printing Samples A shelf is being set. aside at the library on which will be exhibited examples of fine printing published by many internationally known presses.

Milne, j Walter De La Mare, Joseph Con rad, Christopher Morley, and Sara ; Teasdale are to be found inscribed | in books by those authors.

Dr. Kunz was gone about ten ' days. Coed Calls Bluff of Phoney Campus Magazine Salesmen “Want to help a poor boy through college, lady? Buy a mag azine subscription!” (And it’s a good racket, only you don’t want to try it on a college campus.) Three "gentlemen from Texas” discovered that to their dismay this afternoon when they attempt ed to work the Oregon campus for a good thing and were themselves taken for a ride by suspicious stu dents. Arrayed alike, according to the latest approved style in college togs as set forth by the trench coated cartoons in "College Hu mor,” these three boys "on the know” set to work accosting the fair co-ed as she journeyed back and forth between classes. "Sub scribe to the swellest magazine in the world,” they pleaded, “only four dollars! It'll mean a scholar ship to us.” The gag worked for a while . . . My how the money rolled in.” Then a wise co-ed came along. She surveyed the soliciting crew coolly. ‘‘So you’re from Texas. That’s the land of the Lone Star, isn’t it?” she asked. "Sure, and we’re mighty anxious to be seeing the Lone Star again, so won’t you subscribe to a maga zine and help us along?” "Well, since you’re so anxious, maybe I will,” said the co-ed. "Wait here a minute.” Disappearing into the Adminis tration building, she telephoned the police. "Three men out here are just craving to see a lone star,” she told the chief, “so won’t you put on your badge and give them a break?” “Sure, we’ll have 'em come right down to the Star-gazers Resort!” Once confronted with the sign of the Lone Star the “Texas Rang ers” showed no desire to linger in the vicinitty, and didn’t argue when the chief admonished them to move on—as far away as pos sible.
