By Bob Chapman \ an dais are coming' to town, in fact 28 rough and ready men from the Pallouse country are headed for an all-out battle to set tle the question; Vandal kill Duck or Duck kill Vandal. Although “Jennie" lost her tail feathers in a scrap with the V (ishington Husky last Saturday, she has recovered from the bruises sufficiently and expects to start against an unexperienced robber. Latest reports have it that Jennie brought one more re turning- V ebfoot into her lineup Tuesday evening even though the fact was censored for 24 hours. Jake Leicht, Jennie’s fav orite boyfriend, is home and from the sidelines it looks as though her favorite boy friend can be counted upon to bring Oregon a victory Saturday. Jennie wants the boys to bring out the old victory bell from the attic because she is expecting to celebrate her first victory under the banner of an Oregon grid eleven. Jennie’s team faces an Understaffed Idaho squad in their open ing home game of the season. Her opponents have added several navy RO i C men to their roster and from their performance against a victorious Cougar last week Jennie is expecting to see il*4ast \ andal ball club if the Rally squad leaves her alone so she can enjoy the game. Jennie s team has been working out all week in anticipation of a good turnout and she just notified the Emerald sports staff the boys looked great in practice Wednesday. Tex Oliver is unknown to Jennie at this date but she has hopes that Tex will become a personal friend of hers before the season ends. Oregon's football elevens have suffered two defeats at the hands of the \ andals in 29 years of competition and in their last game the Webfoots blanked the visitors 28-0, take it from Jennie, she knows.

TADCEN City man to farmer: “Why are you running that steam roller over your field?” Farmer: “I’m going to raise mashed potatoes this year.” Spanish Instructor Comes To UO After Federal Work One of the most sparkling' personalities on the campus in the estimation of your reporter is Daniel Samuels, newest in structor in Romance Languages, Having discovered that this interview is the outcome of a journalism assignment, he voiced llic rl nl 1 o*1l Avitli “\\ /'II w/'l I-1 11 t c ic iiizict I" TIic eyes twinkled as he told of his I journalistic experiences in Puerto Rico. During the war Mr. Samuels was with the military intelligence on “highly secretive’ work invol- j ving the spotting of enemy agents and subversive activities. “We were quite successful," he smiled proudly but modestly, “not because we were too clever, but because they were too dumb.” He later worked with the Corps of Engineers in the war department in engineer research. This work involved the use of French, Ger man, Italian, Spanish, and Portu gese. After “pitting our brains with the brains of the enemy,” he quipped, “Now, I'm reconverting from war-time to peace-time pur suits.” With deepest sincerity he ex plained that he is here to inspire students to love Spanish—the people and the culture. “I understood the continent of Spain. I’m interested in the mother country which shed its blood for the South American countries,” he said. Mr. Samuels won his M.A. and Ph.D. degrees at Columbia, and since then has been to Puerto Rico, South America, Spain, and France, where he lived for a time. In Puerto Rico he was an instructor at the University of Puerto Rico, and taught high school classes. In coming here this fall, our multi-linguist took his first trip in a plane, and his first trip to Ore gon. He found Oregon to be a wonderful place, with beautiful scenery. But “more than the scenery,” he said, “it’s the people. They have been very kind, going out of their way to make me com fortable.” Mr. Samuels said he found the students intelligent and eager to learn, very pleasant, cultured, and well bred. In bidding your reporter good bye with a cordial invitation to come back “just to visit,” Mr. Samuels stated that he spoke from the heart when he said, “The Uni versity should be proud of the pupils, and the pupils should be proud of Oregon.” Ex-Duck Cordeiro Plays for St. Mary’s Spike Cordeiro, freshman on the Oregon campus last year, now is playing on the St. Mary eleven. His value on the gridiron was con firmed by his actions against Cal ifornia a few weeks ago when St. Mary’s romped all over the sturdy Golden Bears to the tune of 20 to 13. However, the game was more one-sided than the score shows be cause Cordeiro, Wedemeyer, and company literally ran wild, scor ing three touchdowns marked on the scoreboard and two more that were called back because of pen alties. Charles A. Cordeiro, Jr., as he is not generally known, was a con tinual threat during the whole game. He was the thorn in the Bear’s side as Phelan sent him out on flankers and forced the Bears to spread their defense all over the field. The slightest mistake, and the Bears made plenty of them, and Spike was on his way, hurdling, dodging, and squirming away from tickles. Mr. Five-by-Five was about as hard to hang on to as a fish in water. Oregana Pix Schedule Alpha Gamma Delta and Alpha OmicroH Pi will have their pictures taken today for the Oregana. Homecoming Set For Oregon Alnms Homecoming weekend, when alumni return to the campus to witness the traditional Oregon Oregon State college football game, will be held the weekend of November 30, Decembr 1 and 2, Ed Allen, ASUO president, an nounced. Committees planning the event have not been organized, and a call for student petitions will be run next week in the Emerald. The Homecoming weekend, which features Oregon's final game of the season, was curtailed during the war years when Ore gon did not field a team, and this will be its first full-scale event since 1942. 'Penny for Brew’ Offered as Slogan (Editor’s note: Formation of such groups as Tau Upsilon on the campus has inspired the author of this article to suggest another society with somewhat similar principles.) “Bum a penny from every suck er you meet on the street and you will be a millionaire in fifty years,” said the great Herman Schtunk. The idea a few of the boys dreamed up is not to get a million dollars, but to get each student on the campus to drop pennies in the pot every time he enters the Side. Before he decides to avoid this eatery the students should know that the outcome of all this is altruistic, not capitalistic, and is closely allied with the worthy drives of Tau Upsilon whose aim it is to bring the Independents and Greeks closer together. On the day of the Oregon-Ore gon State game, the proceeds of the drive will be spent on a beer and chowder party for the entire student body. It is the hope of the originators that this gathering will bring the students closer to gether and foster a feeling of good fellowship. Following is thev motto of this philanthropic organization: “Roses are red, Violets are blue, Donate a penny For a bottle of brew.” Where could you get so much for so little ?
