Campaign Sells
1500 Oreganas
Complete Pi Phi House
Buys Yearbook; Total
For Last Year 1126
With almost all Oregana housa
representatives’ reports turned in
yesterday, incomplete sales totals
indicate that the limit of 1500 sub
scriptions will probably be reached
when final tabulations are made to
day. Last year's total was 1120.
Pi Beta Phi won the honor of
being (he first house to subscribe
100 per cent, while salesmanship
honors went to Fred Towner, Del
ta Tau Delta, who sold 17 Ore
ganas, and Harriet Thompson, Su
san Campbell hall, with 14 sub
scriptions to her credit.
A schedule is being made by Ed
itor Don Casciato for informal
snapshots. He states that photog
raphers will begin taking pictures
in various houses this week. He
urges that living ‘organizations
which have not notified him yet
when they desire to have the in
formal pictures taken, do so at
once.
Independents and living organi
zation members who have not
been photographed at the Kennell
Ellis studio should take care of
this matter immediately.
Howard Overback, business man
ager, said yesterday that all stu
dents who have not yet signed for
an Oregana may do so by calling
at the Oregana office. After the
limit has been reached applications
will be placed on the waiting list
with a possibility that they will
fail to receive a copy.
Rat Skulls, Pelts
Ready for Use in
Science Classes
Over 3,000 skulls of mice, rats
and other animals have been
cleaned and catalogued together
with their dried pelts at the bio
logical research laboratory under
the direction of Dr. R. R. Huestis,
professor of zoology.
The specimens, which will be
available for work in taxonomy,
the study of classification, and
ecology, the study of influences of
environment, are mostly mice. Oth
ers are rats, squirrels, porcupines,
moles and bats.
The skulls are boiled in soap to
remove the dried flesh.
"One of the newest methods of
cleaning skulls," suid Dr. Huestis,
' "is that in which flesh-eating in
sect larvae are turned upon the
specimens. They clean the bones
cdtnpletely and do not displace
them.

Mrs. L.F. Beck
Tells Girls Of
Health Seals
Heads of Houses Given
Tuberculosis Facts;
$5 in Seals Given Each
President to Sell
—
"Christmas seals to aid victims!
of tuberculosis originated in Den-'
mark in 1904 and came to the'
United States in 1907,” said Mrs. j
L. F. Beck, selling the idea of the
annual health service seal drive to
heads of houses as they met in
Oerlinger hall yesterday.
Heads of houses listened inter
estedly as they learned there were
659 hospitals to treat the malady
in the United States, making a to
tal of 87,000 beds. They learned
with surprise that these hospitals
were crowded to capacity, each
with an approximate waiting list
of 100 persons ranging from 15 to'
145.
Each Seal Counts
Mrs. Beck stated, as she gave
each president an envelope with
$5 worth of stamps, that if each
Christmas package mailed in the
United States were to contain one
one-cent Christmas seal, approxi
mately $100,000 would go to an
nihilate tuberculosis, build much
needed sanitariums, and help care
for persons already afflicted.
Following Mrs. Beck’s talk, Dean
Schwering released the schedule
for late hours preceding exam
week, and stressed the point of
keeping houses quiet.
Ketirinur Rules Given
"If heads of houses are not se
vere enough on the issue of coeds
getting sufficient rest by keeping
campus retiring rules of 11 o'clock
for freshmen, and 12 o'clock for
upperclassmen, the administration
will have to act,” she said.
Mrs. Alice B. Macduff suggested
next term house dances be held as
early in the term as possible to do
1 away with so much social activity
just before examinations.
Each house was asked to sign
up for a $1 membership to Red
Cross and to deposit contributions
in the business administration of
fice, according to word received
from Dean Wayno Morse, chairman
j of the campus drive.

Firing Line

I Smith, Ford Mullen, and George
Jackson, sophomores.
Also turning out last night, for
the first time, was Dale Lasselle,
; who played freshman basketball
here but has since specialized on
football. Another pair of gridders
reporting for the first time were
Bob Whitfield, reserve halfback,

Both are unknown quantities.

What impresses you about this
season’s Oregon hoop squad isn’t
the height of the lads, although
some of them have plenty of that,
nor it is smooth skill and polished
ability, which only a few possess.
The greatest asset of the outfit
working out in the Igloo is enthu
siasm. Hobson’s gang has that
bubbling-over, battling spirit that
i ought to win ball games.
On paper the We’ofoots don’t
figure to finish higher than third
at best in the northern division
chase. Washington will be tough
er than ever, with only Bishop and
McKinstry of the first five lost,
and the only' missing man at Wash
i ington State is Dutch Holstine.
But don't be fooled. Oregon will be
in there upsetting the favorites
along about next month.

Yale authorities gave the same re
port.
Malcolm Farmer, director of
Yale athletics, stated: “If we did
receive an invitation we'd have to

Meanwhile, the Huskies contin- (
ued preparations for the Pasadena j
struggle. The choice will definitely j
be made within the coming week.
Officials announced yesterday '
that Duquesne had accepted an in
vitation to play in the Miami Or
ange Bowl on New Year’s day. j
Several opponents for the Dukes j
are under consideration.
WED IN NOVEMBER
Millard F. Johnson, '36, married
Dorothy Ellen Jackson, former
Northwest Christian college stu

Genevieve Chase, '26. is dean of

Digest Publishes Story
On Oregon R O TC Scrap
"Oregon: Battleground of ROTC!” is the caption flung across page
19 of the November 14 issue of the Literary Digest. An additional
sub-head says, ""Objectors Lose Fight to End Compulsory Drilling in
Colleges.”
“On college campi throughout the nation no institution has aroused
more bitter tooth-and-nail scrapping between pacifists and patriots
than compulsory military training,” the story runs. The national maga
zine saw fit to publicize the Oregon -
activity because voting Oregonians
swamped the optional military
training bill by a ratio of 7 to 4
after a five-year battle by church
es, the liberal press, labor unions,
and student organizations.
"Last June cumulative agitation
aginst compulsory training brought
rangy, blond Charles Paddock, then
a junior in Oregon University's
school of journalism, to organize
a Committee for Peace and-Free
dom. His motive was to put the
question directly to the voters,”
continues the article.
“Undismayed by the upshot of
the election, Paddock attributed
defeat of the referendum measure
to the general ‘no’ vote of the six
bills.”
Upon the request of a staff writ
er, Col. E. V. D. Murphy, head of
the military department, tele
graphed a victory statement to the
Digest editorial offices shortly be
fore the publication date.
The locM commandant’s com
ment follows: "The decisive voU
of the citizens of Oregon against
the proposed law to make training
in Reserve Officers’ Training corps
optional in the state institutions of
higher learning is the culmination
of a campaign begun several years
ago and largely fostered and sup
ported by interests from outside
the state. The results will make
little difference at this University,
where the long establishedi liberal
policy of exemptions on account of
religious convictions, economic
pressure, and conflict of study
courses, safeguards the interests of
the affected students.”
Dean Allen, Son
To Be Speakers
At Wesley Meet
An interesting program includ
ing Dean Allen and his son as the
main speakers, short, snappy
toasts, musical numbers by cam
pus students of other nationalities,
demonstration of folk-dances, and
folk-dancing for everyone are fea
tures promised by Wesley club at
their eighth international banquet
to be held at 6:30 p.m., Friday,
December 4, at the First Methodist
church.
Tickets may be secured from
Betty Jane Thompson, Naomi
Tobie, Dorothy Rowland, Grace
Martin, or Victor Goff for 40 cents.
Students are urged to purchase
tickets as soon as possible. Miss
Dorothy Rowland, social chairman,
announces that the banquet will be
over in plenty of time for atten
dance at the first night of "Good
bye Again.”
Gaseous Display
Housed at Deady
A display of tubes containing
three rare gases through which a
high voltage discharge may be sent
at the pressing of a switch was
prepared and mounted by the
chemistry department last week
and is now in the first floor hall
of Deady.
The passage of the 15,000-volt
electric current through the gases
produces a colorful incandescence
varying with the different gases.
The gases are under low pressure.
Mounted in the tubes are nitro
gen, oxygen, hydrogen, neon, he
lium, krypton and xenom. The ap
paratus and material for the
mounted group was obtained from
the former physical chemistry de
partment.
Pure neon is characterized by its
brilliant red color when electricity
passes through it. Mercury vapor
induced with the neon produces the
blue of all neon signs. All other
colors are produced by colored
glass.
A companion exhibit which has
been on display for some time
shows the fluorescence of certain
mineral substances under ultra
violet light. An electric discharge
through mercury vapor produces
this invisible light. It remains in
visible only until the fluorescent
properties of substances upon
which it shines reflects it
and in so doing lengthen the wave
lengths of the rays making them
perceptible to the human eye.
