Construction on Big Frosh Fire To Begin Today Big Blaze Slated During 1 Parade Friday Niglit; Dean Earl Advances Helpful Adviee Meeting mesaay wiui vugu u Earl, dean of men, for final in- j struction and advice, committee heads of the frosh bonfire decided j to begin construction and decora-1 tion this afternoon. Dean Earl sug-1 gested more cooperation with the i fire department and less "all night" activity. The material committee, headed by Harold DeCicco, has finished gathering materials. The construc tion committee; now headed by Howard Percy, Theta Chi, due to illness of Hugh Collins, chairman of construction, will begin imme diate construction of the "O" with materials obtained. Dick Makes Appointments Construction committee appoint ments by John Dick, freshman prexy, were Ralph Lafferty and George Heilig, SAE, Lloyd Hoff man and Bob Morse, Kappa Sigma, John Derveille, DU, Bruce Eddy, Zeta hall, Jack Green, Sigma hall, Glen Eaton, ATO, James Jarvis, Theta Chi, and Cyrus McLaughlin, Delt. The moment before the Friday night parade turns onto Willam ette street, the completed poten tial bonfire will be fired. Due to use of burlap bags soaked in crude oil, the flames will not die as quickly as previous bonfires. The Firing Line (Continued from fatjc three) when you can score as neatly on terra firmn as Oregon did in that last period Saturday. Braddock, uncrowned king of Webfoot hacks, was aces on his 60-yard gallop for the first touchdown. Just how he evaded those two eager Vandals who came forth to meet him down on about their 35 is one nobody can explain. But “Coco” did it, and more power to him. Jimmy Nicholson was almost as spectacular as he dodged through a horde of tacklers for the second score. John Yerby, who looked okay at end, had just done his good deed for the afternoon by falling on onfe of eight Vandal fumbles. Yerby almost did another good deed in the end zone in the first half, but Nicholson’s long pass evaded his clutches. On the ensu ing play the Webfoots tried the same pass, and It took Heaver Nicholson to cut down Devlin of the Vandals as he turned the toss into a boomerang and boomed down the sidelines. “Nlchellni’s” diagon al dash across the field and tackle of Devlin was the prettiest piece of work the stadium fray had io offer. * * * Now that Dizzy Dean has an nounced that he is a holdout and has opened his publicity drive by having a bee sting him in his car or something, it must be time for basketball to start. How can one tell? Well, Dizzy begins his an nual holdout campaign along about the midst of football season, and that's about the time preliminary basketball starts. Oh, it's all very complicated and perhaps a trifle silly, but once a lad learns how it goes, he catches on rapidly. And any young gentle man who desires to catch on 1km - ard Hobson's varsity basketball team, unless he is a letterman and has already caught on, had better make haste. All men wishing a basketball tryout may turn out this week, for Mentor Hobson is holding drill each night. Next Monday regular practice, with lettermen, begins, and then it’ll be a bit late for the i unheralded. __ , Send the Emerald to your friends. !

The choir is preparing a Christmas program which will be given during the last week before vacation. The pro gram will include several carols of [ different countries. I Optional Military (Continued jrnm pa<ie anc) some of the Browder votes due to the fact that some who had chosen the Communist from Kansas had also preferred compulsory ROTC, in inconsistency rarely committed by any leftist. Of the 1277 voters 83f> were men and 385 women, and .ri7 did not in dicate sex. Radio Charges Aired The Oregon Liberty associa tion will hold a general campus meeting in Oerlinger alumni hall Thursday evening at 8 o’clock, Robert Prescott, director of pub licity for the association, an nounced last night. At this meeting, members of the association offer to substan tiate all charges made against the Emerald policies in broad casts from the College Side dur ing the Emerald straw voting, Monday and Tuesday. Don Thomas will be chairman for the meeting. Home of the charges against the Emerald which were broad cast follow: “The Emerald-radical eoali ition has forced us, owing to its own policy of abuse, to state coldly to the public our princi ple: The Oregon Liberty asso ciation will fight any left-wing, radical movement which seeks, under the guise of holy peace, to disarm the United States and the middle class of American citi zens. “The Emerald is hoping by means of its straw vote, to win students to optional militury training. The Emerald policy is more absurd than a backwoods fan atic.” Statements on both sides of the military fence appear today on the editorial page. Males Swing Count Significant in the vote on the ROTP is the margin of 30 votes which the women give for compul sory military drill in a ballot of 198 to 168 against optional. The male optional vote, however, was heavy enough to swing the total count over to voluntary. Men voted 436 to 385 against compulsory, and 36 didn’t indicate a preference for either optional or compulsory. Of the men favoring voluntary drill 164 had not taken or are not taking the course, 204 have taken it, and 66 failed to indicate wheth er they had taken it. Of those for compulsory drill 49 had not had any ROTC training, 272 had, and 64 didn’t indicate. Of those wdio didn't indicate a perference one way or the other 4 had not taken training, 7 had, and 3 failed to in dicate. The presidential vote broken down to indicate the actual votes by men and women for each candi date show: Roosevelt, men 447, wo men 189: Landon, men 314, women 166; Thomas, men 42, women 23; Browder, men 20; women 4; Lem ke, men 5, women 0; and Colvin, men 1, women 0. The male compulsory vote and the total women voters were the same, 385. Electric Counter Used Tabulation was accomplished by the use of the Hollerith electric card-operating counting sorter, owned by the International Busi ness Machines corporation and rented by the University adminis tration.

Hours of labor in finding the 5,280 possible combinations, creat ed by the classification of the vot ers by sex, year, major, affiliation, presidential preference, opinion on R.OTC, and past experience in the ROTC, were avoided by this de vice.
