Newspaper Strike Ends
r In Portland; Publishers
Promise Early Editions
By GORDON RIDGEWAY
PORTLAND, Jan. 20.—Portland citizens will have breakfast with
newspapers today, as the three daily publications started rolling at
full speed tonight after ending the five-day shut-down. Striking
typographers returned to work after voting at 4:30 this afternoon to
accept publishers' proposals.
All paper's immediately organized their news staffs and expected
to have papers on the streets some
time during the night.
The final agreement amounted
to a 45-cent per shift wage raise
with no change of hours. To last
until 1939, the contract may be
subject to further conciliation af
r ter July 1, 1938.
Small Business
WASHINGTON, Jan. 20.—Pres
ident Roosevelt announced today
that small business will soon be
consulted about economic problems
in the executive’s series of confer
ences on the subject. The action
is being taken to include this group
at their own insistence, White
House aides asserted.
Invitations will be extended at
random to those smaller corpora
tion officials who have recently
written to the administration ask
ing that they be represented in the
conferences.
Reed Progresses
WASHINGTON, Jan. 20.-Stan
ley Reed’s nomination to the su
preme court bench gained the ap
proval of the senate committee to
day. Final confirmation was pre
dicted for Tuesday, allowing Reed
to take his seat some time next
week.
Dean Fired
MEMPHIS, Tenn., Jan. 20.—The
Very Rev. Israel Harding Noe,
fasting since January 2, was re
moved as dean of St. Mary’s Ca
thedral today.
Dean Noe, refused to comment
either upon his dismissal or upon
continuing the fast. Robert S.
Christie, of the governing body of
the dean’s church, said he was sur
prised at the action and was “very
much hurt.”

Oregon Awaits Last
Of Coach Prospects
Following the announcenient
that nothing new in the football
coaching situation developed at
Wednesday night's athletic board
meeting, Oregon settled down to
day to await the arrival of the
fourth and last of the men “fav
ored" for the position.
Jimmie “Rabbit” Bradshaw',
Fresno State mentor, left for Cali
fornia last night following his two
day visit here. He wras the guest
of Athletic Manager Cornell and
Dean James Gilbert, board mem
ber, throughout the day.
The last candidate to be inter
viewed' will be Tex Oliver, Arizona
university coach. He will arrive
: Sunday to talk about the position.
The name of Benny Friedman,
Newr York City college mentor, has
come in for much discussion on
the campus since he declared in a
letter to Cornell that he is “defi
nitely interested” in the job. Al
though no announcement regard
ing this prospect has come from
the board, it is believed’by one au
thority that he will not be asked
| to come here for an interview.
Anse Cornell revealed that Gene
Shields had not been interviewed
by the board, but will be the first
of next week.
With one other candidate of the
four named last week, Ted Bank,
Idaho coach, already interviewed,
a decision from the board may be
forthcoming the middle of next
week.
i at the half things looked very bad
! for the Theta Chis until Ed Cooley
got hot and holed out a couple of
goals and a free throw to start
the rally. Save for a field goal by
| White and a free toss by Weber
the DU's attack was stopped dead.
With a few minutes left in the
game and the score knotted at 13
all, Weber tossed in his gift shot
to give the DUs a temporary lead.
At the beginning of the last canto
Bob Rittel tossed in a basket to
put the Theta Chis ahead and they
clung to this scant one-point mar
gin for the rest of the game.
Ed Cooley was high point man
for the Theta Chis with five mark
ers. He was closely followed by
Phil Lowery with four. Bill White
again played an outstanding game
for the DUs, bucketing three field
goals and a free toss for seven
markers.
Lineups:
Theta Chi, 15 14, Delta Upsilon
Cooley, 5 .F . 2, Morris

Love, Theories Told
In Desk-Top Doodles
By DOROTHY MEYER
Desk tops in various University classrooms serve the students in
a number of different ways during lecture periods. Besides serving as
pillows for sleeping studes, these deeply scarred furnishings prove an
outlet for the artistic side of student nature, especially those having
pen or pencil in hand. .
Subjects of interest to the would-be artists range from the por
trayal of girls’ faces to the drawing of car keys, boxing mitts, and

Placed on Users
Of Courts in Gym
Formulated to relieve the con
gestion and disappointments of the
many persons asking for handball
and other courts, a new plan by
Dean Leighton and Frank Plinsky,
head of the basket room, will allow
students the use of courts three
times a week.
Users of the courts are being
encouraged, due to the great de
mand for facilities, to phone the
physical education school and
make reservations. Although
courts may be used only three
times during the week, Saturday
they may be used all day by those
asking for them first.

Student Loan Fund Rises,
Falls as Economic Waves
Change Bankbook Levels
By ELIZABETH JONES
That the University of Oregon student loan fund plays an im
portant part in aiding students to gain an education, is indicated by
figures released by Dean Virgil D. Earl, director of the fund, which
shows the 1937 loan record.
Records in the office of J. O. Linstrom, business manager, show
that 1063 loans, totaling $26,764.90 were made to University students
The Hot Corner
(Continued front page two)
The Ducks stayed ahead after
that but usually by only (5 points
although oecasional scoring sprees
added ..or ..lessened., the ..margin.
What finally won for the Ducks
was their uncanny accuracy from
the foul line. They had a big eve
ning, sinking 18 out of 21 attempt
ed free throws. A bit of figuring
will readily show you that they
scored on better than 85 [M-r cent
of their free throws.
The next evening when this ac
curacy deserted them, they lost
3G to 32.
True, Bob Hardy and Dave Sil
ver were not with the club, but
then Bob had only played seven or
eight minutes at the most in Fri
night’s tussle, while Dave had to
forego the pleasure of playing for
a case of recently acquired chicken
pox.
In addition to that though, there
were other factors that contribut
ed to the Oregon downfall. To be
gin with, Slats Gill is one of the
canniest coaches on the Pacific
coast. In the second place, a zone
defense is not exactly the type of
defense to score a lot of points. In
the third place the Staters’ slow
type of offensive play is also some
what bothersome to a buncji of
hoopers used to lots of action in
their ball game.
If the varsity was more or less
bored with the Oregon State series,
Coach Jiggs Dahlberg’s Grizzlies
should be able to make up for this
according to advance reports.'
Via the grapevine we hear that
the Montanans cast off any ami
every time they get a chance. Once
more, they are not such bad shots
A checkup shows that their weak
ness has been on the foul line, while
on shots from the floor they h.y c
practically held Lheir own with tlu

STETSON TALKS TO FACULTY

operative study of secondary sehoc
standards and the relation of tlia
study to local high schools. Whil
engaging in this study during tli

States.
from July 1, 1937, to December 31,
1937, as compared with 855 notes
issued in 1936 totaling $20,857.84
during the same period. Total
number of loans made during the
1936-37 school year was 2,861, of
which 2,737 were emergency or
short time loans, and 124 were
long time loans, payable in from
six months to two years. The
amount loaned was $0S,010.26 dur
ing that time.
Students Re-pay
“Students, on the whole, meet
their obligations. They recognize
that it is an obligation and should
be taken- care of,” said Lindstrom,
referring to payment of the notes.
The figures indicated that more
men resort to the fund for assist
ance than women.
Senior Borrowing Higher
During the 1936-37 school year,
26.6 per cent of the loans were
made to freshmen, 32 per cent to
sophomores, 17.8 per cent to jun
iors and 19.3 to seniors. However,
registration shows that 35.5 per
cent of all students enrolled were i
freshmen, and only 13.9 were sen-'
iors, thus making it evident that
relatively more students require a
financial “lift” during their final I
year, as well as demonstrating the
policy of discouraging freshmen
from undertaking of debt.
Only once has the full extent of
the fund been loaned at one period
... in 1933, when the effects of
the depression began to be felt in
Oregon, more applications were
made than there were funds to fill
them. Since that time the fund
has grown to a total of $79,401.41,
. . . and is still growing, due to do
nations from citizens of the state,,
graduating classes, fraternal or
ganizations, anti the accumulation
of interest.. Released strain on the
fund in recent years due to better
times generally, the effect of the
NYA and to a greater quantity of
summer jobs, Lindstrom pointed
out.
Largest Loan $300
Largest loan made to University
students is $300 . . . smallest, $1.
The average short time emergency
loan is from $25 to $30, with a 25
cent service charge. Average long
time notes are from $100 to $150.1
During the last five yeais, loans
by the fund have totaled $226,
534.08 . . . over a quarter of a mil
lion dollars!

Little Chang*1 in Campus
The campus is little changed
unce his professorial days in the
;con department, says Dr. Erb. The
irt museum, infirmary, library, and
physical education buildings are
;lie new buildings since his earlier
tenure here. "The greatest change
n the campus is that polish which
las been given it by expert land
scaping,” was his observation.
The new president declared he
ikes all sports almost equally, with
some partiality toward football and
baseball. Hobbies ?—he says he
has none, except his family. Not
i bit finicky about his eating is
this very human man who is to
head the University. He is no food
faddist, he says, and will “eat any
thing.”
No Fishing
"Fishing up the McKenzie? No,

probably be if I were to go fish
