By BOB STILES Regardless of existing conditions on the campus this yeai the civilians are still going to carry on the annual intramural basketball tournament. At first it was supposed that because there was not enough interest on the part of the students the league wouldn’t be in operation this year. There are only six teams in the league, but with the limited time left for the games each team will have full sched ule up until the time of examina tions. In other years the teams were mostly house teams but this year there aren’t any houses to enter a team, except Steiwer hall; and we think that for the small number of civilian males on the campus they did \^ery well to have six teams .—five independent and one house. The next games on the schedule for the Webfoots will be the games Monday and Tuesday nights with the Idaho Vandals on the floor of the Igloo. The Ducks have defeat ed tiic Vandals twice already, once by the decisive score of 78 to 42, and they appear capable enough to meet anything that the Vandals send to meet them. The Webfoots are at present tied for second place in the league standings with Idaho. The coming series between the two teams will give undisputed possession to one of them if the series is sweeped. W. C. Jones (Continued from page one) ment of political science, was con fined mostly to Willamette uni versity, Salem, where he had the major responsibility in public rela tions work. Students as well as officials will feel the loss of such an able edu cutor. A search has been under taken for a qualified man to as sume the position vacated by I)r. Jones, according to Dr. Gilbert, dean of the college of liberal arts and science. Dr. Gilbert, commenting on his departure, said: "During his three years at the University of Oregon Dr. Jones has won tiie respect of the faculty and placed the work of his department on a high plane. Already fortified by a wide acquaintance throughout the state and established contacts with public officials, he was in a position to serve the state in the training and placement of students preparing for public service.” Martha Switzer (Continued from page one) The council approved an active cori espondenee with student body officers of other Pacific coast schools concerning their govern ment. Tetters to these officers will In- sent out during the next week. Mary Bentley, senior rjrpresnta (ive, was named to the council. Suggestion was made and ap proved that the results of this con espondenee be surveyed and compared with present University student government. The Total Victory league was giv. i unanimous support by the - uuu. il, and permission to incor P.• the League's forum outline with those of the regular ASUO forums was granted for spring term.

Brass, Beer, and Blondes (Continued from page three) No, the browsing room is room 203, Chapman hall. Every morning, be tween eight and either 9 or 10 o’clock, the air corps assembles to listen and learn about physics, geo graphy, or history. The boys then take out pen and paper and start taking notes. Soon, however, the more intellect ual students have taken up a char acteristic slump and one knows that they are fast asleep. Neither fire nor Captain Cable could awak en them. It was only a couple of days ago that we noted some of the more subtle techniques in ac tion (or perhaps inaction). Some of the boys have master ed the art of sleeping with their eyes open. R. B. Smith is a good example of this school of thought. On the other hand there are guys like Lewis and Lundy. Lewis sleeps with his mouth open, while Lundy sleeps with his eyes closed. Of course, by far the most interesting type is the man who can sleep with his eyes open and appear to be taking notes. We haven’t quite mastered the tech nique yet, but we’re working on it.
