Minger Heads Senior Formal; Date Still Open Nationally Known Mnsi< Promised to Dancers: Committees Selectee In Near Future Henry Minger, major in business administration, was appointee, chairman of the senior ball, campus formal, last night by Margilee Morse, president of the class ol 1937. Minger, treasurer of the junior class last year, was in charge of finances on the junior weekend di rectorate. He has been active in interfraternity affairs and worked on dance committees in the past. Minger Best Fitted “Henry Minger was given the appointment because I considered him the best fitted for the job,” stated Miss Morse, in commenting upon her selection. “Politics did not enter into my decision.” The seniors’ dance will be held either at the end of the winter trm or the beginning of spring term. It is the most formal affair of the year. Orchestra Not Chosen Negotiations to get a nationally known orchestra here for the ball have already begun, Miss Morse announced. Minger will make his main committee announcements in the near future. Oregon Polishing (Continued from pane three) Nicholson, Lasselle, and Braddock knocked down passes thrown by freshmejj and reserves. Yerby Crack Receiver John Yerby, one of the best pass receivers on* the coast, will be on the catching: end of a large per centage of what passes the backs hurl. Hank Nilsen at the other terminal can also glom the leather agate. John Engstrom and Leif Jacobsen, a pair of Iettermen, are other wingmon in the swim for a chance at the Beavers, and still others are Bud Robertson, sopho more, and Chuck Bracher, reserve. Captain Del Bjork, Oregon’s all American, will be the toughest nut the Beavers have to crack Satur day. He’ll be at left tackle, with either Bill Foskett or Ken Skin ner at right tackle. Pat Fury, who, like Bjork, will be playing his final game, is another tackle likely to see service. Amato, (iiovanini Sure Tony Amato and Nello Giovan ini have guard positions sewed up, although Bill Estes, and Chan Berry are giving them a scrap. Ed Farrar and Vernon Moore are al ternating, as always, at center. Denny Breaid is a third snapper back who may be used in the Beaver joust.

Idaho's One Man Gang Beileve-It-or-Not Ripley wanted to run a column on Troy's One Man Track Team the other day, so he wrote a letter requesting the permission of Don Johnson, who won the Idaho state high school meet single-handed in 1934 and who now attends the University of Idaho. Johnson being a common name nlthough Johnson is not a common athletic performer, the letter went astray and was opened by a sec ond Johnson, brother of a third Johnson, no longer in school, also named Donald, and who had lived at the same address the previous year. A search was started for the athlete. They found1 him down at the gym, practicing basketball for he also stars on the Idaho ca saba squad. Penny Wise Drug 40 E.

'Oregon Alumni Take Civil Service Exams Lloyd Huff, staff assistant in the geology department, Ernest Mc Kitrick, and Alan Griggs, gradu j ates of the University, took the I civil service examination given in I Eugene for the junior geologist, November 17 and 18. I The examination, the first one given for geology in Eugene for several years, was to fill vacancies in the geological survey of the De partment of the Interior, and va cancies in the Soil Conservation service in the Department of Agri j culture. I Students Want i_ (Continued from page one) favor of continuing- touch football, i The remaining sixteen expressed themselves "in favor” of it by largo majorities. Draper, of the championship Yeomen squad, said there were no injuries to his men because most of them had played touch or real football before. “Some of the members would like to see it used as a regularly played game in donut champion ships.” Several complaints were made regarding the blocking rules, in terference with pass receivers and the laxness of the officials in call ing rough play. Possible improve ment which could be made includ ed pads for blocking protection, more strict penalties for rough play, and the use of another offi cial on the field to help make the decisions. Injuries Not Reported Doctor Miller reported to Nephi Jorgensen, graduate assistant in physical education, who investigat ed the injury reports at the health service, that the infirmary has no record of the number of injuries resulting from touch football, and asked whether the games were played on Saturdays and Sundays causing the increase in cases at those times. He felt that the num ber of injuries was being over-pub licized in proportion to the facts. No statement or inference was made that he thought touch foot ball should be discontinued. According to Mr. Washke, “A total of 404 individuals participat ed, showing the relatively small proportion of injuries to the num ber in competition. The biggest complaint I have received was that the game is too easy and well run to permit any good blocking.” The Phi Delta team reported the most injuries — 5 in organized games and 3 in sandlot play.

It’s a risky business and if it works it’s fine, but if it fails it’s no good.” I.1BK GETS OLD ROOK The complete set of the periodi cal, "Bibliographer,” was received at the library today from New York City. The Bibliographer, magazines of book reviews and stories about writers and poets, was published from the years 1882 to 1887 when it was merged with “Booklore.” The magazines pub lished by Elliot Stock of London are bound in six volumes and will be on the shelve | very shortly. PUBLIC IS INVITED The action of radium in killing' cancer cells will be pictured at 7:30 Tuesday night in the Canti film, a 35-millimeter film showing tissue culture and cancer cells, to be run off in the assembly room in Villard. The film, taken by Dr. Cantir of London, is shown under the aus pices of the class in biology survey. The public is invited. RENTAL BOOKS FORGOTTEN A library feature which has es caped the attention of many stu dents is the renting of books on ’ the English reserve shelves. In ; all courses, where enough books • I are available for work, copies of I the books may be rented at 3 cents a day or 15 cents a week. | PUBLIC DANCE 1 | EVERY 1 SAT.

A Dahlberg, assistant professor of speech, will advocate at the annua convention of the Western Association of Teachers of Speech to b< held at Pasadena during the Thanksgiving holidays. Mr. Dahlberg believes that instead of starting with a forma i proposition and attempting to bend facts to prove or disprove it, de caters should, cnoose a vital prob-1 lem and indicate various solu tions with their good and bad points. Then each debater would defend the solution proposed which he thinks is the best, admitting weaknesses, throwing them out, and incorporating into his solution the good points of other proposals. The side giving the most persua sive argument would win. It is in the law courts that the weaknesses of the old formal style of debate have made themselves such a headache to the public, he indicated. "At the present time the unre stricted privileges of an attorney to interpret his facts as he sees fit, irrespective of the well being of society is the one point at which the legal profession is in need of greatest reform, and the point at which they are the most seriously opposed,” he said. The line of thought of the in telligentsia is parallel to that of the common people, Mr. Dahlberg said. “Your intellientsia are becoming more and more favorable to a co operative than a competitive doc trine,” he said, “but the average person does not think in abstrac tions, nor in the terminology of the scientist. There is need for someone to be the interpreter, to pull together these parallel lines, and to converge them. Firing Line (Continued from page three) gon teams which were far infer ior to the Beavers on paper have won the annual classic. Like the Washington struggle, the state’s traditional battle always seems to find the Webfoots “putting out” in double doses. * * * Should Oregon upset Joe Gray and his pestiferous right arm Sat urday, it’ll make four in a row for l'rince Gary Callison over Alonzo A. Stiner. The first time the two youthful coaches sent gridiron forces against each other was back in 1933, when Oregon tied for the conference c h a m p i o n s h i p by trouncing the Beavers in Portland, 13 to 3. The following season the Webfoots edged out, 9 to 0, also at Portland. Here last fall, as you'll no doubt recall, the Ducks went to town early and late and made it 13 to 0. Oregon today has a team which can whip the Staters. Getting out of that team a punch that will score is what has to be accom plished. . . . No matter who wins on Bell Field, Saturday’s battle promises hundreds of thrills. There’s Ore gon State’s passing attack, the lalk of several towns. And a little ; bird tells your correspondent that the Ducks will open up very wide also. Jimmy Nicholson will undoubt edly be in Oregon’s backfield, and Nick has the color it takes. Joe Gray will be the big color on the i field, but the Webfoot backs aren’t far behind. ['LARK GALLED TO PORTLAND Barney Clark, member of the elass of 1936 and now working on the Eugene Registeer-Guard, was ealled to Portland Thursday on the leatli of his father. Clark was ac- i live in journalism on the campus, 1 oeing editor of the 1935 Oregana. and writer of the Innocent By stander column.

The materials chairman, Pete Mit chell, will bring construction ma terials out of hiding this noon where they have been protected from possible Oregon State raid ers. Tower Bonfire The bonfire will be built as a tower instead of an effigy, Norris said. Plans are to build a scaf fold, fill it with the materials, and pour on the crankcase oil. Large plywood letters of OSC will be placed at the top of the tower to be consumed by the flames. The frosh vigilante crew under Clayton Ellis will stand guard over the bonfire as it is being construct ’d and until the rally begins.
