Tex Explains
Team Tactics
An explanation of Oregon strate
gy and its result in the U. of O.
Southern Cal game last Saturday
was given to the Eugene Quarter
backs yesterday at their regular
weekly gathering by Tex Oliver.
The admiration of Oliver's col
leagues was shown when they gave
the Oregon coach a standing ova
tion on his entrance.
The Webfoot mentor told the
group that the team had instruc
tions to play cautiously in the last
half of the game in order to protect
their slim lead. The absence of Em
mons and Donovan from the back
field line-up was one of the factors
contributing to the tying touch
down gained by the Trojans, Oliver
reported.
Oliver forecasts a near perfect
season for the Southern Cal eleven
as far as the rest of the season is
concerned since they have a prom
ising group of footballists in their
ranks.
Renewed Interest
In Classics Noted
At Western Schools
Renewed interest in the classics
which was noted in the East several
years ago has now hit the western
coast. Although University enroll
ment has increased, it has not
changed enough to account for a
100 per cent jump in the Latin de
partment.
According to Dr. Landrose, head
of the department, the division is
exactly twice the size of last year.
Classes in beginning Greek, Latin,
and Cicero are particularly large;
it has been necessary to open an en
tire new section of Greek for theol
ogy students from Northwest Chris
tian college.
Encouraged by such enthusiasm,
the Latin division will be particular
ly active this fall. Graduate stu
dents will study medieval drama,
and plan to present various plays.

day from 4:45 to 5:30 o’clock.
Purpose of the vesper, said Dr.
Branton, is not just another meet
ing. It will be a time when people
pause to get away from the rush of
campus life, collect their thoughts,
and really face themselves, he said.
The hour will be built around si
lence, he said. He warned the group
i gainst a lost feeling ‘‘if you're
ifraid of silence.” Leaders for the
vesper hour will be chosen from the
student and faculty groups on the
campus, not necessarily from relig
ious groups alone.
Ed Robbins, president of the
Plymouth club, will be leader of the
Thursday hour, he announced.
The month’s activities for the
council briefly outlined by President
Bob Tindall include church night
on October 13, church Sunday on
the 15th, and the annual Oregon
Christian Youth assembly on the
weekend of the 27th to 29th.
