This was the word received in | Eugene yesterday from Roger Al ton Pfaff, University of Oregon graduate of last year’s class who is acting as adviser for the three Japanese students who make up the good-will team. Meanwhile plans took shape for a busy day of it for the team while they are in Eugene. The students will address the Eugene Rotary club at noon, and will ap pear before a University audience at a formal dinner to be given in their honor at the International house Tuesday evening. Invita tions to this dinner were mailed yesterday to a number of promi nent townspeople, faculty mem bers and students, according to Kazumi Harao, president of the International house. Youths Are Representative The team members are T. R. Makiyama of Chuo university, Tad Yamada of Meiji university, and K. Sumomogi of Doshisha univer sity. Pfaff interviewed hundreds of Japanese students before mak ing his selections for the team. He reports that the three who were selected are representative of the best of Japanese youth, and that they are all accomplished speakers in English. Makiyama and Yamada have paid previous visits to the United States. Makiyama holds a law de gree from McGill university of Montreal, and was a delegate to the Tenth Institute of Politics at Williamstown, Mass. Yamada was in the western United States in 1931 as a lecturer for a Japanese Jiu-jitsu and judo team which toured this country. Both Maki yama and Yamada are studying law and intend to enter the diplo matic service of their country. Sumomogi is a student of Eng lish literature. He has had a nota ble athletic career on his alma ma ter’s rugby and rowing teams. Pfaff Six Months in Orient After completing his R. O. T. C. course at Camp Hulburt this sum mer, Pfaff went to Manchuria, where he spent six months study ing conditions. Early in October he took the three members of the . team on a shorter trip to Man churia to give them first-hand knowledge of the situation there. Pfaff was passing through Ja pan in September, bound home I wards to enter the Oregon law school, when Japanese friends asked him to undertake the lead ership of a good-will tour through the United States, similar to the Pacific Basin Good-Will tour spon sored by the University J^fejtgon a year ago, in whiche Gret'nm“n, Vernonia; Emmabel Stadden, Marshfield: Adrt enne Sabin, Hollywood, Calif.; Helen Osland, Portland; John King, Freewater.

Students were particularly ac tive during the summer vacation. They assisted in circulating litera ture designed to bring out the evils of the bill and they placed many voters on record as being opposed to the measure. City chairmen assisted Alexander G. Brown, alumni secretary, in ar ranging for alumni meetings in the various cities of the state. Many Webfooters addressed serv ice organizations and grange meetings in attempting to con vince the voters that the bill was of no merit. Open forum columns of the state press were filled with1 letters giving facts and figures o!P the proposed moving—all written by University men and women. At the head of the student or ganization was Art Potwin. Pot win maintained offices in the alumni building in Eugene and from there carried on a corre spondence with district chairmen that kept him posted with cam paign developments all over the state. Bob Allen also had offices in Eugene where he prepared news stories for the press of the state. Dave Eyre covered over 4000 miles in the state during the summer in his work with students. His trips were directed from the School Tax Saving association in Portland. Distribution of litera ture and the organization of voters to go on record against the bill constituted the larger part of his work. Jean Grady served as Portland chairman with Sterling Green act (Ccntinurd un Page Three) 'O’Order To Hold [ Meeting To-Nighfc 7:30 At Johnson i _ There will be an important meeting of the Order of “O" at Johnson hall tonight at 7:30 o’clock, according to announce ment last night by Orville I (Red) Bailey, president.

M. C. A. for operat ing funds tomorrow morning. The campaign will continue until Thursday evening in an effort to raise an activities and mainte nance budget of $400. Under the direction of Jay Wil son, finance chairman, and other members of the Y. M. C. A. cabi net, three teams will contact every man on the campus during the two days of the drive.

Budget Slashed The goal of $400 represents a budget for the coming year which has been slashed from old stand ards to meet current conditions. It will be devoted entirely to stu dent activities and maintenance of the hut, since the faculty ad visory board for the Y. M. C. A. will raise funds to meet the sec retary’s salary and other major expenses from sources off the University campus. “The campaign is ordinarily held earlier in the fall,” explained Rolla Reedy, president of the cab-: (Continued on Pac/e Three) Number of Grade Warnings Larger Than Last Year’s Instructors Employ Means To Warn Students on i Danger Line Six hundred and twenty-three grade warnings were sent out by the registrar’s office the latter part of last week to students who were receiving failing grades in one or more subjects. Of these, 229 will be required to arrange interviews with their advisers. These were the cases where a student was flunking two j ir more subjects, or flunking one subject while on probation. The ] Dther 395 were those who had but; me failing subject, and were not! required to have interviews. The number was slightly higher :his year than usual, and is attrib lted to the fact that instructors! ire more and more using this [ neans to warn students who are m the danger line although per- j laps not in the absolute flunk ilass.

Author Kaufmann de scribes the vision that burst on my startled gaze as "the Glogauer studios, modernistic as hell, and just as uncomfortable." Here was an angle, here a curve; here and there parabolas. Sides careened drunkenly, the back wall was a futurist's nightmare, George Anch'ieni, vaguely discernible be neath a large flat about to throw him, filled the air with sulphurous emanations.

By BRUCE HAMBY Emerald Sports Editor An Oregon football team that was lip to the expectations of neither its friends nor its foes was not very serious opposition to the University of Southern California Saturday. Howard Jones used sec ond and third stringers in coasting to a 33-to-0 victory. ] Saturday's game ended the 1931 conference season for the Web foots. Oregon’s circuit record was two victories, two defeats and one tie, for a .500 per cent standing. U. S. C. and U. C. L. A. were the victorious elevens, Idaho and Ore gon State the losers and Washing ton holder of a tie. Griffith Gets Busy The Trojans scored within five minutes of the start of Saturday’s game. A forty-yard pass, Homer Griffith to Julian Bescos, put the ball on the 8-yard line, from where Griffith scored on a wide end run. U. S. C. scored one more touchdown in the first period, and added another in each of the three remaining quarters. The only department in which Oregon excelled was punting. Mark Temple and Bob Parke av eraged 41 yards with 14 kicks. Four or five Trojan punters aver aged only 33 yards on 11 kicks. Temple was the outstanding play er for Oregon, averaging 3 yards every time he carried the ball. Troy Out in Front As a result of their victory the Trojans still lead the coast race with five conference victories and no defeats. The U. C. L. A. Bruins, although losing to St. Mary’s 14 to 7 Friday afternoon in a non-conference contest, are also undefeated with three league wins. Bill Spaulding’3 eleven, pre game favorites, found unexpected life in the traveling Gaels. Led by Capt. Bill Beasley, the Moraga Marauders came from behind to tie the score at 7-all and then score a last quar.er touchdown to hand the Bruins their first defeat of the year.

Mr. Har rington was indeed rather hard to interview in the first place it was hard to get hold of him, and when he was finally ‘‘got hold of he had very little to say. Whether he is of nature adverse to pub licity, or whether he was in a hurry to leave, cannot be known for sure. George Harrington, who is working for his Master’s degree, is a graduate assistant, taking several history courses, and at the I same time holding that position | so feared and yet respected by all! lesser students a grader, or as! he terms it, a “reader.” Mr. Harrington has been a resi dent of all the Pacific states, his' boyhood being spent in Washing ton, having attended high school1 anti one year of college in Califor nia, anti spending the rest of his college days in Eugene. When asked what he did during his college career he replied with a surprised look, “Studied, of course.’’ And one infers that it must be a fact, since he received the honor of being elected to Phi Beta Kappa upon his graduation last June. George Harrington has also been somewhat interested in news paper work. He was editor of the high school paper in Long Beach, California; and after his sopho- i more year in college he worked ’ for a year as a linotype operator [ jn the Roseburg News-Review. At J present he is working as a lino type operator on the Register Cuard in his free hours. When scholastic affairs are put , behind him, Mr. Harrington plays golf or goes to wrestling matches.
