NQ NEED OF SCRIP, SAYS EXECUTIVES OF CO - 01 (Continued from Fapc One) remainder of the three-day holiday to transacct “necessary” business The bankers decided to follow the policy of limiting withdrawal; for necessities of day-to-day busi ness and personal requirements Yesterday it was possible to with draw sums up to the amount oi $20. Eugene banks had no need tc take advantage of the holiday since they are reported as being in unusually good condition witl loans at a minimum and cash anc quick assets on hand. Students after the first flurry oi excitement viewed the “holiday' with calm, as did business men Various credit plans were being worked out by merchants for us< in cases where cash was not avail able, but the opening of the bank; made this unnecessary. At the post office the posta savings department reported a nor mal day with no unusual demands even though the postal may also b« pressed by “holidays” because pos tal funds, like commercial funds are deposited daily with the banks STUDENTS ARE PENNI LESS, AS BANKS CLOSI (Continued from Fapc One) bers. For once the bill collecting brotherhood has been nonplussed— tied up assets offer a perfect ex cuse to the more troublesome. Lasi night found conditions liquidating with the cigarette corner practical ly broken. Many places opened uj charge accounts or accepted smal out of town checks for small pur chases. Coal. . . silk stockings . . . meat —and the telephone Keenly aware of the problems of business, large and small, Bell System commercial men are con stantly devising special telephone plans to custom fit service to the user’s needs. For example, a plan they worked out for a coal distributor helped him to contact 50% more dealers. A manufacturer, using a telephone selling plan, sold 700 dozen pairs of hosiery through one Long Distance call. A great meat packer handles complex sales and distribution problems efficiently with the aid of planned Long Distance and private wire services. Systematic telephone plans are helping many users to build business —cut costs —handle collec tions—unify nationwide organizations — increase profits. And Bell System men are seeking still other ways to make the telephone more useful. BELL SYSTEM _| TELEPHONE HOME ONE NIGHT EACH WEEK I . . .

I ~ “ ~~ - Two Instructors Will Give Program Presenting a concert of cello and piano music, Lora Teshner Ware, 'cellist, and Aurora Potter Under wood, pianist, both members of the University music faculty, will appear together Monday at 8:15 in the school of music auditorium. This is the first program of its type this year. The last group of numbers to be played by Mrs. Ware is of particu lar interest because of its modern numbers by Bridge and Chasms.

The other numbers of this group include “Kel Nidrei" by Bruch and “Vito" by Popper. Mrs. Underwood will contribute as a solo four numbers, "Waltz,” “Etude," “Nocturne," and “Scher zo" by Chopin. Besides the solos, Mrs. Underwood and Mrs. Ware also play two joint numbers; namely, “Sonata, Op. 5, No. 2,” by Beethoven and “Sonata, Op. 38” by Brahms. ASUO MEETING NULL AND VOID; ONLY 277 THERE (Continued from Page One) would be 'held early next term. Provided a quorum is present at that time, and the session is called in accordance with constitutional provisions, the amendments will be voted upon at the same time as the regular A. S. U. O. elections for new student officers. Prescott Asks Question A1 McKelligon read the amened ments at yesterday's null and void gathering. The only student to raiSe a question from the floor was Julian Prescott, who challenged the amendment regarding the can didacy of transfer students for of fices. Hail replied by saying that transfers would be eligible if their tern* hours tally with require ments. No definite date has yet been set for the third attempt to read the amendments. It probably will be at the nominating assembly next quarter. 1 ■“ ■*" “ ... * '* . ----- Dr. Wright Comuletes Book On Language Mathematics It took seven years of research and the tabulation and calculation of verb ratios in more than 580. 000 lines of Spanish texts, but the j result was an accomplishment un precedented in its field, in history j —the perfecting of a system by which may be authenticated the j date and authorship of the old, | prized, Spanish manuscripts, j The man who accomplished this colossal task is Dr. Leavitt O. Wright, professor of Romance lan guages at the University of Ore gon: his findings and his newly perfected system were recently published in a book, “The -Ra Verb Form in Spain," which contains j the complete history of the -ra verb from classic and vulgar Latin through 20 centuries of evolution. Dr. Wright has prepared in his new science of language mathe matics, graphs “which trace the path of the -ra verb in Spain. He has made tables which show the relationship of various periods of Spanish history and literature to the ratio of the verbs. By counting the -ra verbs, and sometimes those ending in -se, and comparing with his table he is able to bring forth strong evidence of a manuscript’s date or authorship. Professor Dmitri Ivanovitch, an eminent Polish philologist, in re viewing the book in the February issue of “La Nueva Democracia,” commented: “Although the book is weighty in nature, it is as in teresting as a thrilling novel of ad venture, due to the fact that the contents, without distorting facts, I are treated in a way that is both interesting and captivating.’’ “Another merit of the book,” ; wrote Dr. Ivanovitch, “is the ex j tensive table of reference which it contains, and to which one may have recourse to test the doctrines propounded by famous grammari ans. The Polish professor also pro posed that Dr. Wright carry on i further research to shed light on 1 corresponding uses in Spanish America and the language spoken in the mother country. The study suggested by Profes sor Ivanovitch was completed by Perry D. Woods of Linfield college, McMinnville, Oregon, who wrote his doctorial dissertation on ‘‘Ra Verb Form in Spanish American Speech,” and received his Ph.D. degree at the University of Oregon in September, 1932. This study has not been published, but Dr. Wright and Professor Woods are preparing a summary of it for eventual publication. Dr. Wright's book was also fav orably reviewed by Dr. W. J. Entwistle in the December issue of "Medium Aevum,” published at Oxford. Some of Dr. Wright's other re cent literary accomplishments in clude "Things to Omit From an Elementary Spanish Grammar,” in the February and March issues of the "Hispania"; “A Compre hensible or Comprehensive Ele mentary Grammar?”, in the Feb ruary publication of the “Oregon Foreign Language Journal.” Two of his articles accepted for publication within the last few days are "Grammatical Slips in the New Spanish Constitution?", which is to appear in the March number of the “Modern Language Forum,” and "The Apodosis Func tion of the -SE Verb Form,” to be published in the June issue of "Hispanic Review." Oregon Graduate Pays Week-End Visit Here Miss Mary Caniparoli, who re ceived her B.A. from the Univer sity in mathematics in 1931 and her M.A. in economics in 1932, and who is now teaching mathematics and other subjects in Scappoose high school, was in Eugene last week-end, visiting her brother, Dr. S.

He is a dynamic speaker and has a wealth of illustrative stories. In his talk he will tell some of his experiences in Europe, especially in the light of the building up of good will between countries. Stu dents are urged to keep this talk in mind as it will have important bearing on modern international problems. Walks To Bo Changed Work on replacing the board sidewalks around University high with gravel walks will be started as soon as the weather clears up. The board sidewalks are too slip pery in the winter was the reason given by Mr. Donald Lewis, super intendent of buildings and grounds. Banquet of Young Democrats To Be Tomorrow Night Vic Meyers, William Gosslyn and Mayor Willis Mahoney Will Speak The biggest four-bits worth of the year — that’s the Inauguration banquet of the Young Democratic league of Lane county at the Os burn hotel at 6:30 tomorrow night, according to Nathan Berk ham, president of the Lane county league and a graduate student in economics, who is to be toast master. "One-bit apiece pays to hear Vic Meyers of Washington and three of ihe most prominent Democrats of Oregon,” he explained, "and a good meal is thrown in for good measure!” Attendance, he said, is not limited to Democrats. Carl Donaugh, state Democratic chairman; William L. Gosslyn, president of the Young Democratic league of Oregon; and Mayor Willis Mahoney of Klamath Falls are the three other major attrac tions to be introduced by Berk ham. At the banquet Elise Schroeder, a graduate of the school of jour nalism, will be inducted formally into the office of national commit teewoman of the Oregon Young Democratic league. Nearly one hundred reservations have already been made. Tickets go on sale this morning at McMor ran and Washburne at 50 cents each, and may also be obtained at the Co-op. S.

A. in physical education from Co lumbia university last June, is now coaching at Seth Low Junior col lege in Brooklyn, New York, and playing basketball in the New York Athletic association, which is one of the most prominent ath letic societies in the country. ILLUSION: ■ The Oriental girl reclines on a sheet of plate ■ glass supported by two slaves. The magician waves a white sheet in front of the pretty maiden ... pronounces a few magic words... Presto! She has disappeared in thin air. ^ EXPLANATION: “Disappearing” acts arc among the most popu lar in the repertory of the magician. Dogs, horses, girls, whple rooms disappear—whisked into wings, dropped through trapdoors, hidden by mirrors. Hut this “disappearance” is a bit different. One of the “slaves” is a hollow dummy. When the magician holds up the sheet the lithe little lady disappears completely—into the con venient figure of the dummy. .••■- .v'" M * Copyright. 1933. B. J Be:- noMa Tobacco Company •• _ * ar’s TEAT TO EE TOOTED ... ITS MORE FUAT TO JlTOW' There is also a trick of cigarette adver tising, whereby a few magic words are used to create the illusion of “Coolness.” EXPLANATION: Coolness is determined by the speed of burning. Fresh cigarettes, retaining their full moisture, burn more slowly...smoke cooler.Parched,dry ciga Irettes burn fast.They taste /»o/.This makes the method of wrapping very important. Improperly wrapped cigarettes begin to dry out as soon as packed. Camels are cooler because they como in the famous Humidor Pack of welded, three-ply, MOISTURE-PROOF cello phane .. .land because they contain better tobaccos. A cigarette that is fresh, full of natural moisture, and blended from choice, ripe tobaccos tastes cooler than one that is I harsh and acrid. For coolness, choose a fresh cigarette, made from costlier tobaccos. it is a fact, well known by leaf tobacco experts, that Camels are made from finer, MORE EXPENSIVE tobaccos than any other popular brand. Try Camels^... give your taste a chance to sense the difference. You’ll appreci ate it! _JVO TRICKS .. JEST COSTLIER TOBACCOS IN A MATCHLESS BLEND
