CORVALLIS, Jan. 23—(Spe
cial)- Lanky Ed Lewis was a lit
tle too much for the Washington
Huskies tonight and the Orange
men outscored the sharpshooting
champions to win, 42 to 34, and
climb a notch toward the northern
division title. The Beaver captain
was “hot” and his nine field goals,
i coupled with some beautiful pass
' ing and defensive work, was the
big factor in the Beaver victory.
The Beaver zone defense work
ed perfectly against the Washing
ton long-shooting attack and the
Husky high scorers, Johnny Fulier
and Hal Lee, were given few
chances to get away their long
arches. The whole Oregon State
team played hard, clean ball and
disorganized the Huskies by inter
cepting passes and taking the ball
away time after time.
Lewis Breaks Away
Oregon State jumped into the
lead on a cripple by Skeet O’Con
nell, flashy black-thatched for
ward. Pete Anloncich, tall Wash
ington center, tied it up with a
duplicate shot, only to have Skeet
put in another. Lewis evaded
Antoncich to get in two field goals
and run the score up to 9 to 5.
Bob Galer, substitute Washington
"forward, put in two field goals
and a free throw to give the Hus
kies their only lead, 12 to 9.
Lewis and O’Connell went to
work again and ran up a 25-to-19
lead at the halftime. Every mem
ber of the Beaver quintet followed
the ball like hawks d.uring the first
period and broke up the speedy
Washington attacks by taking the
ball away or by knocking down
passes. Numerous missed cripples
on the part of the Orangemen lost
several points when they took the
ball on long passes behind the
Washington guards.
Second Team Peps Game
For the first 16 minutes of the
second period the bewildered Hus
kies were able to make only four
points, two of them on foul shots.
Lewis, O’Connell and Carl Lcnchit
sky, guard, were the main cogs in
the Beaver offense. With only
four minutes left to play, Hec Ed
mundson sent in an entire new
team and it enlivened the closing

Reinhart Acting
In Capacities of
Coach, Manager
T»ECAUSE Manager Kenneth
McKean was declared ineli
gible several days ago and be
cause there was no adequate
opportunity in which to name
a successor, Bill Reinhart will
take care of the manager’s
i duties himself on the basketball
team’s northern trip, which
started yesterday. Instead of
taking a manager, Reinhart
took an extra player, Ralph
Terjeson.
To date, Reinhart has coop
erated this season as no coach
ever has before. He paid for
new sweaters out of his own
pocket, accepted a salary re
duction, voluntarily gave up
training table, brought back
$150 profit from the barn
storming trip into California,
and did numerous other things
to help the A. S. U. O. in its
financial distress.
Four Oregon Men
Attend League of
Nations at Geneva
Reunion Banquet Anticipated for
Ex-University Students and
Instructors at Meet
While attending the League of
Nations at Geneva, Switzerland,
four men, well known to many fac
ulty members and alumni, gath
ered to consider an Oregonian ban
quet and alumni reunion, reported
Dr. George Rebec, dean of the
graduate school, who received a
letter recently from Wilkie Nelson
Collins, who is one of the men at
Geneva.
Collins, a former member of the
University faculty staff, is now
chief adviser to Ambassador Quo,
Chinese representative to Eng
land. Last summer Mr. Collins
taught at the Portland center. Ac
cording to several faculty mem
bers, in the last 20 years Mr. Col
lins has made periodic visits to the
Oregon campus. Dr. Rebec relates
that while he taught at the Uni
versity of Michigan Mr. Collins
was one of his pupils, and since
that time they have carried on
correspondence. Mr. Collins was
teaching at the University of
Pennsylvania when he first met
Mr. Quo, who was then a student
at the institution, who has climbed
to a foremost position in interna
tional politics; with Mr. Collins as
his adviser.
One of the Oregon alumni is

Smith Made Director
Of State Mining Group
Dr. Warren D. Smith, head of
the geography department, was
appointed a director of the Oregon
State Mining congress at a meet
ing of that body held recently in
Salem. Dr. Smith was also elect
ed vice-president of the Western
Oregon Mining association.
Other Eugene men to be elected
were R. M. Betts, president; and
E. G. Harlan of the Eugene cham
ber of commerce, secretary.
The organization went on record
as in favor of the remonitization
of silver, and opposed to any sys
tem of fiat money, Dr. Smith said.
* Sunday’s Symphony Concert
Dubbed Fine Orchestration
By DAVID WILSON
Journalists of the last genera
tion might have dubbed Sunday’s
concert "an auspicious occasion.”
A crowd of 2500 (estimate by Tom
Stoddard, C. P. A.) came to en
joy and applaud one of the finest
programs presented by the Uni
versity Symphony orchestra in re
cent years.
Rex Underwood’s direction, and
the weeks of rehearsal that pre
ceded it, drew from the larg^r
than-usual orchestra a perform
ance that even made one forget
McArthur court acoustics. The in
troduction of two numbers by
string ensembles proved very pop
ular. Miss Frances Brockman
added green sprigs to old laurels
with a performance of Max Bruch
concerto in G-minor for violin and
orchestra that reflected continued
improvement in style, technique,
and feeling to the many who had
heard her in previous appearances
with the orchestra.
Beethoven’s No. 3 “Leonore”
overture was a well done hors
d'oeuvres for Schubert’s B-minor
(Unfinished) symphony. Too of
ten the “Unfinished” is dished up
as a sure-fire number, without
much worry about the best possi
ble presentation. Sunday’s per
formance of it would not be. indi
cated on that score, for Mr. Un
derwood made the most of its con
trasting moods and its lovely mel
odic lines, with sparkling work

Maiden Braves
Icy Race Waters
In Frigid Plunge
PEEKING to prove that the
female of the species is
more torrid than the male,
Roberta Moody, intrepid Gam
ma Phi, hit the mill-race yes
terday. Clad in a bright crim
son sun-suit which bared some
foot and a half of rapidly cool
ing spine, Miss Moody stalked
across the lawn of the Gamma
Phi den and disappeared with
a loud splash into the waters.
Thence, she swam a block
down to the Beta barn. How
ever, upon coming up for air,
she caught a glimpse of Ned
Simpson. This proved too much
for the maiden ,who returned
with a good deal of celerity to
the starting point.

By JULIAn T’RESCOTT
Student government at the Uni
versity of Chicago, a noted and
liberal school, has been placed in
the hands of a faculty board, a
committee of seven students and
various sub-committees, the mem
bers of which are all appointive!
The system of elective student
body officers was abandoned re
cently after it had been found inef
ficient.
The faculty board, known as the
board on the coordination of stu
dent interests, is in general charge
of policy making relative to all
student affairs. This includes ath
letics, other extra-curricular ac
tivities, admissions and compre
hensive examinations. The mem
bers of the board are exclusively
faculty members, there being no
student representation on it, what
ever. The chairman of this group
i3 the dean of students and univer
sity examiner. He is also execu
tive officer of the board and sees
that its policies are followed in the
conduct of student affairs.
Dean Names Students
In more direct control of cam
pus activities, but subject to the
policies of the faculty board, is
the “student committee on student
affairs.” This body is composed
of seven students who are appoint
ed by the dean of students. The
committee consults with the dean
on student affairs. It is also the
legislative body for undergraduate
activities. Its actions, however,
are subject to the approval of the
dean.
Responsibility for administration
f>f the various student activities,
with the exception of athletics, has
been delegated to four groups
whose fields are classified as stu
dent publications, dramatic and

State Board in
Session Makes
Move Decision
Corvallis New Location
Effective at Once
ECONOMY IS MOTIVE
l>r. Yal Hoyt, Ii A. Dear Appointed
Supervisor of Offiee; Force
Will Be Decreased
PORTLAND, j;in. Z3— (Special)
The central business office of
the Oregon state system of high
er education was moved from
Salem to Corvallis by the state
board in a session here today. The
change is effective at once.
Harrison Val Hoyt, head of the
school of business administration
at the University, was named su
pervisor of the business depart
ment.
The board declared that 55 per
cent of all the work handled by
the business office originates in
the Corvallis institution, and that
great savings can be effected by
transferring the office to that city
immediately. The new set-up, the
board revealed, will continue un
til July, or as soon thereafter as
it is feasible to create a perman
er>4 central business organization
under a comptroller.
$22,000 Saving Seen
The change was recommended
by Dean Hoyt, who, after a
month's study, said he learned
that a saving of $22,000 as well as
increased efficiency, could be ob
tained by the transfer tp Corval
lis.
The central office will be organ
ized under two divisions, one a de
partment of requisitions and
claims, the other handling audits
and accounts.
A close tie-up with Chancellor
William J. Kerr's office will be
maintained, the board explained,
by having the dean of the busi
ness administration school at the
head of the new business office.
Four To Be Fired
Four members of the present
business office staff will lose their
jobs immediately, it was said.
Several other staff members may
be eliminated later.
Chancellor Kerr scored the busi
ness office for “its past record of
wholly pnsatisfactory results and
high cost of operation.” He de
clared, however, that it was the
system, rather than the personnel,
that was at fault.
Neither Dean Hoyt nor Dr. Kerr
could be reached by the Emerald
last night to comment on the new
business office set-up. It was
thought they both were in Port
land.
Mrs. Allen Will Write
New Novel in Portland
Mrs. Sally Allen, wife of Eric
. VV. Allen, dean of school of jour
nalism, is leaving tomorrow to
I stay in Portland a month, where
she will write her second novel.
But be not dismayed, journalism
majors, open house will continue
to be held at their home on Birch
lane from 7:30 to 10:30 every Wed
nesday evening, according to Dean
Allen.
Last Wednesday evening was
special for girls, because of Mrs.
Allen's intention to leave.
Afraid of Exams? Then Don’t
Become A. Rhodes Scholar
By CYNTHIA LILJEQVTST
Many have asked: What is the
background and what are the qual
ifications of a Rhodes scholar?
Don Stuurman, assistant in the
philosophy department, answers
these questions in the following in
terview. He was recently awarded
a Rhodes scholarship from the
state of Washington district, an
honor that will give him, together
with other American students, the ‘
privilege of studying three years i
at Oxford university.
I asked him what his reaction!
to the examination was and how
he was questioned.
“In my judgment it was very
fair and the inquisitors proceeded |
cleverly. My judges were all
Rhodes scholars; two were law-|
yers and three were professors.
They immediately threw into my
teeth G. K. Chesterton’s paradox,
‘Everything matters except every
thing.' After I had struggled with
this awhile, they proceeded: “Have
you read Eugene O'Neil’s ‘Mourn
ing Becomes Electra?’ What did
you think about it in comparison
with the rest of his works? How
did you rate it with other trage
dies?”
“I answered that ‘it is certainly
O’Neil’s best effort but it falls
short of great tragedy. I believe
that O'Neil has exhausted his sub
ject matter by his method of ap
proach to what seems to him to be
a problem. His conception, the
psychology of his approach, does
