Want to See Part o f Wilbur
Whale’s Cousin? Drop Up to
Deady Hall’s Third Floor
By MARGARET RAY
Speaking of whales, and who hasn't heard of “Wilbur,” the odorifer
ous whale recently cast up on the Oregon beach? If you haven’t time
to dash down to the beach and inspect the huge mammal for yourself,
a very good idea of the size of these creatures can be gained by in
specting the pieces of skeleton contained in the zoological collection on
the third floor of Deady hall. One section of the vertebrae alone is as
big as a chopping block, and one bone of the flipper is as large as
the fender of a car,
The whale exhibit is only one of
a 5,000 specimen collection of Ore
gon birds, their nests and eggs;
animals both from Oregon and oth
er countries; and shells and plant
specimens. The collection is largely
the work of one man, Dr. A. G.
Prill, of Scio, Oregon. Dr. Prill,
with the help of his friends, collect
ed all the birds and animals,
mounted them himself and then
gave the collection to the Univer
sity in 1919. Dr. Prill was former
ly a collector for the Smithsonian
Institute museum in Washington,
D.C., and for the Golden Gate Park
museum in San Francieco.
Strange Birds
Most people have read about the
strange birds and animals which
inhabit the world and perhaps a
few have actually seen some of
them, but it is strangely satisfying
to have them mounted in life-like
positions within glass cases where
one can look at them as long as
he pleases. A young kangaroo, only
about 18 inches tall, is there —
pouch and all; a duck-billed platy
pus, that strange native of Austra
lia which is a cross between a bird
and an animal, arc also to be found.
The platypus has fur like an otter
or mink, but has webbed feet and
a bill, and the female lays eggs
similar to a duck. The sword of
a sword-fish is a ferocious looking
thing, nearly 20 inches long; and in
a tiny bottle is to be found a black
widow spider, harmless looking, but
insidiously deadly! A tiny fawn
looks so life-like that one expects
to see it bound away, and right
above it is a small black bear.
The greater part of the collec
tion, and the best part in the eyes
of a scientist, is the part devoted
to birds. Every bird to be found in
Oregon is included, some of them
so rare that scientists have come
from other parts of the country to
study and inspect them. Six kinds
of owls are to be found, ranging
from the miniature screech owl to
the huge barn owl. There are two
specimens of the golden eagle. Be
sides these, there are also repre
sentatives of all the 55 specimens
which Dr. Ralph Huestis, professor
of zoology, says are to be found
around Eugene.
The display has promise of gain
ing a favorable location soon. When
the books have been moved from
Condon to the new library, it is the
plan of University scientists to |
make the room into an anthropol
ogy and zoological museum where
these collections will be easily
available to students and scientists
alike. #

Special Editions
Planned by Staff
Emerald-Oregana P i !r* n i c*
Proposed; Date, Place
Still Undecided
Nominations for editor of the
spring term special editions of the
Fmerald were made at a meeting
of the staff in the journalism build
ing Thursday night. Special faculty
and critic editions were suggested
to be printed during the term.
Suggested editors for the vari
ous editions are: frosh, John Pink
and Dick Litfin; women’s, Clare
Igoe, Myra Hulser, Bernadine Bow
man, Virginia Endicott, and Mil
dred Blackburne: men's, Gordon
Connelly, Lloyd Tupling, Paul
Deutschmann, and Bill Cummings.
Final selections will be made at a
meeting of the staff next Tuesday.
No definite ^lace was selected
for the proposed Emerald-Oregana
picnic, but Swimmers’ Delight and
other places were suggested.
For the first time this year Dean
Eric W. Allen, of the journalism
school, was able to attend the staff
meeting and offered both favorable
and unfavorable criticism of the
last two terms of the Emerald,
polntitng out that the paper is now
in a position for greater improve
ment than for several years,
A survey of the Emerald con
ducted in Charles Hulten’s fresh
man journalism classes which Dean
Allen pointed out was on the whole
quite fair and well grounded,
brought the following criticisms:
approval of the editorial policies;
lack of enough women’s sport news
and good gossip columns; lack of
accuracy throughout the Emerald
columns (though not due to any
lack of effort to clean it up, the
dean pointed out); general ap
proval of Bernadine Bowman’s ex
change column; advertisements
out of place on the front page; too
few names in the paper and too
much repetition of the same
names; not enough upperclassmen
on the reporting staff; and a lack
of good theater reviews.
Dr. Wright Will Attend
Meeting in Mexico (’.ily
Edwin B. Place, president of the
American Association of Teachers
of Spanish, has invited Leavitt O.
Wright, professor of romance lan

Thousands See Eucharistic Service in Manila
Crowding Luneta square in Manila for the final rites in the recent Eucharistic congress are thous
ands of Homan Catholics. Clergy, laymen, and high church dignitaries attended from 54 nations. The
picture above is of the children’s day program and was made from an army air service photograph. The
tallest altar in the world, erected especially for the congress, is shown in the center of the square.
‘Nazi Irritation’ Is
US Propaganda,
Professor Says
All rumor of “German irrita
tion" in the 1936 Olympic games
has been the work of “American
propagandists,” Howard Raabe,
Oregon State instructor in phys
ical education, told PE majors
gathered in the asssembly room of
the PE building Wednesday night.
Mr. Raabe visited the games as
a guest of the German government
along with 29 others chosen from
the United States. His party was
taken through the “Olympic Vil
lage” by German guides who show
ed them the dining rooms, dormi
tories and the practice field.
The Germans and the Danish
are among the most outstanding in
gymnasts, Mr. Raabe told the
group. France, he said, doesn't
include gymnasts in their team be
cause they have no gymns for this
purpose. In Czechoslovakia all
those interested in gymnastics
from six to sixty receive training,
he stated.

Pi Hups 18, Canard 0
Pi Kappa Alpha won a game
yesterday at the expense of the
Canard club, 18 to 0 in three inn
ings.
The Pi Kaps got to Hawkins,
Canard twirler, for six runs in the
first, nine in the second, and three
in the third.
In the meantime Sheppard, Pi
Kap pitcher, was retiring the co
operators in order with little
trouble.
Canard played with six men.

Washington's . strong infield
quartet of lettermen includes Wil
lie Hewson, shortstop; Len Rich,
second; £}eorge Ziegenfuss, first,
and A1 Plummer, fence buster
third baseman.
Only Five Orange Lettermen
Wily Slats Gill on the Oregon
State campus has only a quintet of
letter-winners on which to base
his hopes, but is expected to dev
elop a dangerous club with avail
able sophomore material.
Gill's infield is composed of half
veteran and half reserve talent.
Karl Conkling, first baseman, and
Art Merryman, second baseman,
are the vets, and Fred Lewis at
shortstop, and Rudy Kappel at the
hot corner, are newcomers.
Jay Pleasant, Ike Wintermute,
and Lloyd Chatterton patrol the
outfield. Battery prospects have
worried Gill considerably, but pit
chers Bill Kalibak and Fred
Cramer are back to carry on.
Oregon’s Sophomore Talent
Loss of four regulars has damp
ened Hobby's spirits, but present
indications show that he won't be
too handicapped. The Ducks earn
ed at least an even break with
every team in the circuit last
spring.
Main problem facing Hobson this
season was to develop pitchers in
place of Bob Millard, league-lead
ing hinder, and Don McFadden, a
pair who were lost via graduation.
Bill Sayles to date has answered
ill dreams of Duck supporters.
Any way you figure it, we'll
stay with Hobby and his boys.

Houses Asked to Pay
Weekend Luncheon
Money on Saturday
House managers of the var
ious living organizations have
been asked to bring money for
the campus luncheon to the
back room in the College Side
between 10 and 12 o’clock Satur
day morning, Sam Fort, general
chairman of Junior weekend,
said last night.
Each house is expected to pay
twenty-five cents for the mem
bers fed by their organizations
on Friday of Junior weekend,
Fort said, to cover the cost of
the campus luncheon.
Sigma Delta Pi Initiation
Scheduled for Sunday
The annual initiation of new
members into Sigma Delta Pi, na
tional Spanish honorary, will be
held 4 :30 Sunday afternoon at the
home of Prof. Leavitt O. Wright,
2262 Birch Lane.
Among the alumni expected
back for the initiation ceremonies
are: Mr. M. FI. Erickson, now on
the staff at Oregon Normal, Mon
mouth; Miss Marie Sacomano, now
teaching at Grants Pass; and Miss
Juanita Demmer, of the Medford
high school faculty.
A specical “Mexican’ dinner, pre
pared by Mrs. Wright, will follow
the initiation.
‘Oregon Melody Men"
Refuse Invitation to Sing
The “Oregon Melody Men,” a
group of University students who
have formed a singing chorus,
have declined the offer that was
extended to them to sing in the
Junior weekend canoe fete, it was
learned last night.
The chorus is expected to parti
cipate in the operetta, “Student
Prince,” next fall, according to
Hal Young, professor of voice.
Oregon Nine
(Continued from hit if three)
leading hitter of the squad last
year, is gradually returning to
form.
Oregon State’s opening infield is
divided in the matter of exper
ience. Fred Lewis, shortstop, and
Rudy Kappel, third sacker, are
new to the lineup, but Earl Conk
ling, first base, and Art Merry
man, second, are both lettermen
for their positions.
Only comparison of the teams is
their pre-season games against
Willamette, which give Oregon an
edge. Willamette beat Oregon
State three times last weekend,
but against the Webfoots divided
honors in a doubleheader. Bill
Sayles pitched Oregon to a 3 to 0
win in the first contest, but Jerry
Gastineau, Bearcat ace, blanked
the Ducks 4 to 0 in the night-cap.

UP TO SNUFF
By VENITA BROUS
This promises to be one of the
most exciting weekends so far this
term. It all starts off with the FROSH GLEE dance Friday
night with the well known ELLIS KIMBALL leading in the
band box. Since short dresses will be in order we expect to
see lots of good-looking new spring costumes. . . . Saturday
night you will have an opportunity to wear your newest formal
at one of the house dances. ... If it's really nice, Sunday, you
all will be able to wear your sports suits on one of the picnics.
Don't forget to have a new bathing suit for the occasion. The
suits this year are more clever than they have ever been before.
In order to look your best
for the week-end festivities,
you hair must have that fin
ishing t ouch — KRAMER'S
BEAUTY SALON will give
you that extra special finger
wave for the big occasion.
There are still several in
itiations in line during the
next few weeks. So drop in
at tne GIFT SHOP for the
most attractive gifts. . . .
While wandering around, I
noticed several little inter
esting items, lamps, little
animals, ashtrays, door-stops,
bud-vases—and. oh, so many
other lovely things that all
would be appropriate. . . .
The coeds of the campus have been taking advantage of
every bit cf the sun that they can—FYLKER MOR.RI1, PI PHI,
has been wearing- her new Jant
zen’s knit for taking- sun baths.
Aquamarine, two piece, a basket
weave, a small brown strap on
Lhe top of the hal
fter goes around
She wears her white canvas -w.
beach shoes, toeless, tied around the ankle
with a cord. In the ALPHA CHI back yard,
one can see KATHERINE HELBURG tak
ing her sun bath in one of the new Hawaiian hand blocked suits.
Hers is quite striking, red background with black, orange, and
yellow print—it is two piece, the halter has one button in
front, three in the back, a collar is across the back. With it she
wears white fish net ghillies.
Golf is gain
ing: momentum on
the campus. The
other day JEAN
FARRENS, GAM
MA PHI BETA,
wore what she
claims to be the
utmost in com
fort, her grey
flannel skirt,
eight gores in it,
a plain pink
sweater, blue silk
paisely scarf, and
the inevitable
Spauldings.
For dancing,
another campus
sport, MARY L.
WEBSTER, SIG
MA KAPPA,
wears her new
black net over a
taffeta dinner
iress—around the
bottom of the
skirt are yellow
rose buds that are
pleasingly spaced
half way up the
skirt. A cluster of
roses adorn the
“V” neck.
Did any of you notice GLADYS BATTLESON, ADPI, in her
new hat, at the CARNIVAL Saturday night? It was a clever
black silk turban that she found at WASHBURNE'S. One of
the new cut-outs. It had a small brilliant clip in the front. Her
hair, a MILL'S coiffure, was designed so as to roll over the
entire brim.
LOUISE AIKEN. TRI
DELTA. looked extremely
smart on the campus yes
terday in her two piece ter
ra-cotta spring suit that she
found at HADLEYS — The
skirt was plain with just one
pleat in front.
The coat was double
breasted with huge cut-crys
tal buttons down the front—
Swagger, finger-tip length,
and tucked sleeves—Under it,
she wore a sweater to match,
with just two rows of white
for contrast.
