The letter from R. A. Henningsen, Oregon ex-’28, Shanghai, China, commends Doc Spears and his team and en closes a clipping from the China Press. In comment Mr. Henningsen says, "Here's hoping the team conies through in flying colors next season.

After winning its first four games, Oregon was overwhelmed by Southern California, 53 to 0. Next Oregon was held to a score less tie in North Dakota. Then Oregon proceeded to lick New York U. 14 to 6. Returning to the coast, Oregon played a scoreless tie with Oregon State aiid on the very next Saturday beat the Uni versity of California at Los An geles by a score of 13 to 7. This U. C. L. A. team had beaten St. Mary’s 12 to 0, and in turn St. Mary’s hail beaten Southern Cali fornia 13 to 7. ‘‘On the basis of comparative scores, Oregon should have last to U. C. L. A. by 53 points, the mar gin of the Oregon-Southern Cali fornia game, plus the six points by which St. Mary’s defeated Southern California, plus the 12 points by which St. Mary’s defeat ed Southern California, plus the 12 points by which U. C. L. beat St. Mary's, making 71 points. That’s why the life of a football expert is not a happy one.” Mr. Henningsen closes his letter of comment with '‘Will be on hand next year, cheering for the Lemon Yellow.". FRENCH COMEDY WILL BE SCREENED TODAY (Continued from Voge One) be produced since the advent of the talkies. So far, it has always been a rather serious handicap to attend a showing of foreign lan- ! guage film without understanding ■ at least some of it, even though ! the action might be simple and; easy to follow. Mr. Clair, who is unquestionably France’s greatest movie director, now for the first time has found a solution for this j problem which is as surprising in ! its simplicity as it is effective. | For die benefit of those who do j not understand French, there are! several scenes in which two Brit ishers on a roof, peeping in at the doings in an attic studio below, tell in English of what has hap pened and is taking place at the moment. This does not in the least i spoil tlie frolic, for each one of these interruptions only takes a I few seconds and they are so adroit ly conceived that they become part' and parcel of the tale. \ ADAMS AWAY ON TRIP Max Adams, University pastor, I anil Mrs. Adams enjoyed the only two good sunny days, Sunday and Monday, that Newport has had for |j the last six weeks. They spent 1 three days down at the seashore, I luring which time they had alt of \gate Beach run to themselves. ' Phi Theta Upsilon To Give Tea Honoring Philomelete New Members Will Be Guests at Sunday Reception A tea honoring the new mem bers recently initiated into Philo melete will be given Sunday by Phi Theta Upsilon, upperclass women’s service honorary, at the Alpha Gamma Delta house.

Spanish Honorary Society To Initiate Three Students According to an announcement made by J. B. Rael, president of the local chapter of Sigma Delta Pi, national Spanish honor society, three students have been elected to receive initiation. Those receiving this honor are: Barbara Leiter, J. Ladrew Mosh berger, and Elma Dorris Have man, all three juniors in Romance languages. Initiation is to be held spring term. ‘Every Woman in Activity’ Is Goal Of WAA Officers Basketball, Ruling, Hiking And Speedball Proved Sport for Girls The Women’s Athletic associa tion is making: every attempt to enlarge the scope of its activities to provide recreation for the wom en students. Frances Haberlach, president of W. A. A., says, “W. A. A. would like to interest all women on the campus in some form of activity. If they are not interested in the more complicated team games, such as speedball and basketball, which are being offered this term, there are still horseback riding and hiking for recreation.” Last week-end the association took advantage of the McKenzie snow for an over-night trip. The conditions in the Sisters region were found excellent for winter sports. W. A. A. is planning an other outing of this kind before the snow leaves. Miss Haberlach wants to remind those girls interested in the horse back ride scheduled for Sunday to get in touch with Catherine Wat son, at 1780, as soon as possible. All women’s houses desiring to enter the basketball tournament can do so by calling the women's physical education office and scheduling their games. The next game is being played today at 4 p. m. between Kappa Delta and Alpha Delta Pi.

Colonial—“The Great Lover” and “Everything's Rosie.” Showing till Thursday. 1 Heilig—“High Pressure,” starring William Powell. Showing till Friday. McDonald—"Around the World in Eighty Minutes,” with Douglas Fairbanks. Showing for the last time today. * * * By RALPH MASON Heilig It is a new William Powell that is appearing at the Heilig in “High Pressure,” showing for the last time today. If not new, he is at least changed; instead of the usual very slow moving man, he seems to have been bitten by the High Pressure bug, and how things do fly! As a promoter of a synthetic rubber scheme Powell has little time to devote to Evelyn Brent, who has been left in the lurch on many previous occasions. He does, however, manage to get a kiss in now and then. One is reminded of Mahatma Gandhi when Powell sits cross legged in his P. J.’s on a training table, and again of one of Amos and Andy’s “pep” talks when he addresses a salesman’s meeting. The action takes place in one of those spiffy ultra-modern business offices with futuristic furniture and gorgeous secretaries. By ROY SHEEDY McDonald Mr. Douglas Fairbanks sped around the world about a year ago, stopping only occasionally to go hunting, play golf, or meet some Oriental potentate. He took with him a Hollywood director, Victor Fleming, and two camera men so that by pointing a camera at the most interesting things they saw, a movie has been born, “Around the World in 80 Min utes.” Thus Mr. Fairbanks not only saw the world, but reaps a small fortune to boot. The picture offers some enter taining and (dreaded word) edu cational values. Many of the shots, practically all of which were taken in Asia, are exceed ingly interesting. Doug provides a running chatter of explanation, interspersing frequent none too clever wisecracks. And of course he is the center of everything, leaping from place ot place, shoot ing ieopards, holing putts and so on. A good portion of the picture was taken in Hollywood, and it takes a sharp eye to tell which is Shanghai and which Los Angeles. Andy Clyde and Rudy Valee ap pear in the short features of the program. “Peach o’ Reno,” with Woolsey and Wheeler in the leading roles, comes tomorrow for a two-day run at the McDonald. * * * Menjou at Colonial “The Great Lover,” starring Adolphe Menjou, and “Every thing's Rosie” are showing at the Colonial for the last time today. Winnie Lightner, with Olsen and Johnson, will play Friday and Sat urday in “Gold Dust Gertie.” * * * Armstrong at Rex Robert Armstrong and Jean Arthur appear in the title roles of “Ex Bad Boy,” which opens a two-day run at the Rex today.
