Poison Oak; Plugged Noses Fill Infirmary Foot infections, chest conges 1 tions, poison oak and one in jured athlete made up the siek list for the campus infirmary yesterday. Leonard Isberg, halfback on the Webfoot football team got hit in the head in practice yes terday. , ; Peggy Snow is back in the in _ i firmary with a foot infection. She spent most of spring term a in bed with a similar ailment last I year. ! i The “poison oak ward" is . where Phyllis Saunders and I Rosemary Reilly are temporarily _ | residing. Phyllis came in contact with the fatal red weeds while on a barbecue, and Rosemary says she “just went for a little hike j across the millrace.” “We would like to arrange an exchange dessert with ward 1,” j was the hue and cry set up by Grant Alexander and Wayne Wellman, both of whom are suf i fering from chest infections. | “The food? It’s all right if you like mush and dried toast for breakfast,” the commented. Vern Sellin was hit in the knee with a baseball, which chipped the bone. He is now recovering from a relapse. The common cold is still the most frequent ailment on the campus, infirmary nurses claim. Others on yesterday’s sick list include: Wayne Bartholemy, Ed gar Smith, Bob Ellenwood, George Schreiver, Ernest Lewis, Fran ces Montag, Stuart Nelson, and Margaret Wachtel. 'Peace' Cups (Continued from page one) Three Silver Plaques Surrounding the Heart cup are three silver plaques, which are the permanent Hearst awards for the national championship teams. Ore gon has had three, in 1935, 1937, and 1939. Also in the Hearst group is an other plaque awarded permanently to Oregon for the 1939 Ninth Corps Area championship, in competition with nine western states. The most important Ninth Corps Area trophy, though, is the : “Doughboy of the West,” annually awarded to the college having the highest marksmanship average at the ROTC summer camps. The I “Doughboy” is a small bronze ; statue of a doughboy in uniform, mounted on a massive oak pedes tal. Its history is interestingly tied up with Oregon. The trophy was designed and constructed in 1920 by Professor Avard Fair banks, who at that time was on the faculty of the Oregon art de partment. Richard W. Reed, 1924 captain of Oregon’s football team, modelled for the statue. UO Wins Four Times The “Doughboy” is awarded an ually, but becomes the permanent possession of the school winning it for three consecutive years. So far Oregon has won it four times, in 1929, 1930, 1936, and 1939. In another corner of the show case hangs the massive “Gover nor’s Award.” A heavy bronze and mahogany plaque, it is awarded every year by the governor to the state school showing the greatest military efficiency. It was won by Oregon in 1934 for second place in the national intercollegiate shoots.

Well the University of Oregon Dads’ club, in conjunction with Miss Janet Smith of the Univer sity employment office will start in May to make the rounds of all large employers in Portland. Last summer, with headquarters in the Oregon building, this office placed all but 12 of 160 active ap plicants in steady or temporary work. Although the main purpose of the organization is to provide employment for those who need money for continuation of school, many students found steady work that fit into their careers. Betty Onthank was secretary in charge of the office, under Janet Smith, and through her efforts the entire city was canvassed. Such places as Sun Valley and Timberline lodge were also noti fied of the need of work for Uni versity students. Oregon Dads held meetings for the express purpose of influencing their associates to give available | jobs tq University of Oregon men and women. A total of 817 Oregon students was interviewed last summer. Of these, only 280 filed aplications, and 160 kept in touch with the office until they were placed. The University of Oregon Dads' employment office will open two weeks before school is over next year, in order that many students j will be able to go to work as soon as they arrive home. The location ! of the office will be disclosed in the Emerald at a later date. American Daughters For the purpose of encouraging interest in southern history, the United Daughters of the Confeder acy are offering the Mrs. Simon Baruch university prize of $1000 for the best essay dealing with the Confederacy or with southern life and policy during the period of the war between the states.

Oregam mechanical arrangements are ex pecteil to be nearly completed b; the next meeting of the board, ear ly in November, it was stated b; Orlando J. Hollis, adviser from thi board for the yearbook. niiui wi j'jiuriiuurt .Whether to print more Emeralds or to devise a better distribution scheme came in for considerable board discussion, the matter aris ing from an apparent shortage of copies. When it was brought out that a number in excess of the number of student body cards was already being printed it was decided to in vestigate distribution, especially in view of the suggestion of one of the student members of the board to the effect that members of living organizations, already taken care of in original distribution, are in the habit of picking up extra cop ies aL the Co-op store, main dis tributing point for independent students. Some method of naal-.jng certain that the Emerald »>;ill be an ASUO card unit should be worked out, the board felt. ISig Name Band Homecoming, only three weeks ahead, was also a board topic, the question being mainly what to do about a big-name band or other wise, the matter being deferred in favor of future developments. Present for the meeting were Dr. Dan E. Clark, Horace vV. Rob inson, Orlando .1. Hollis, George Hopkins, Dean Karl W. Onthank, J. O. Lindstrom, George Root, fac ulty members, and John Dick, Jeannette Hafner, Anne Frederick sen, and Leonard Jermain, stu i dents. All the students except Anne I Fredericksen, president of the AWS, are new members, while George Hopkins was the lone fac ulty newcomer. President Donald M. Erb, out of I town on business, was not present at the meeting, which was presid ed over by Flail M. Pailett, regis trar and executive secretary of the 1 University, chairman of the board. Mystery Cruise * Ends in Walk. Taxi Still Lost 1 “Highway robbery’’ was the adjective used by an unidentified Oregon coed yesterday in refer ence to a too-expensive taxi ride. Seeking a strange address, the girl called a cab, fully expecting the driver to take her there with little ado. The cabman, however, turned out to be new at the job and unfamiliar with the streets of Eugene. After circling the neighbor hood several times, making sev eral stops, and asking frequent questions, above mentioned coed disembarked still far from her destination. The meter, she noted, had ticked to the sum total she car ried in her purse. She then pro ceeded to the long-sought place, hoping the driver could find his way back down town. Six Students Suspended Six University students have been suspended for failure to pay registration fees, it was revealed yesterday by the business office. In order to be reinstated, these students must pay the registration fee due, a $1.50 late registration fee, and a $2.00 reinstatement fee. If the foregoing fees are not paid by October 24, the students will be dropped and will receive no credit for the term. Third and final installment on registration fees will fall due No vember 10. Anyone owing this fee may pay it now and avoid the rush i when the payment is due. The busi ness office is open from 8 to 12 o’clock and from 1 to 3 o'clock. I •p i Eat More Fish more days a week!

Jewell, Bain Talk on Placement Finishing College, Certification to Be Up for Discussion Dr. James R. Jewell, head of the University department of educa tion, and Dr. Verne Bain of the state department of education spoke at 11 o’clock yesterday in Guild hall on problems of teacher placement and certification in Oregon. Dr. Jewell explained that the education department faculty has three distinct problems to deal with in preparing its students: graduation from college, certifica tion by the state, and placement. No other school in the University has a placement bureau. And no placement bureau on the west coast has as high a percentage of placements as do Oregon and Ore gon State. “Perhaps,” said Dr. Jewell, “the bureau could be more appropriately named the recommendation bu reau for all we can do is recom mend. Then if God, the placement ment bureau, and some school sup erintendent get the same whim at the same time, you are practically certain to land a job.” California Pays More Ambitious students may take more graduate work and perhaps land positions in California where (Please turn to page four) iimirmiHinmimmmmmmitHiiiiimiHiHiaiiiiiiiHiiTiniiimiiiiiiminniniimnniiimmmiiiimiHumiiiuHimKuiHiuuiimimmmuuHiuiiHuiimim SHIRTS THAT LOOK PERFECT s i The most fastidious men §§ | are pleased with our ex- g pert laundering of shirts. | Bachelor service — but- § tons sewn on and darn ing at no extra charge.
