Susan Campbells’ Lead Girls Intra-Mural Volley Tourney By Phyllis Litzenberger There has been some “dunking” on the campus other than doughnuts of the Twister sale and the non-conformers of the Sophomore Wbiskermo. Wednesday night on third floor, Ger linger tt^-Alpha^-Xi Delta’s went way under, loosing a hard fought game to the Alpha Delta Pi’s. The two teams seemed to De weu matcnea.as iirsL-one ream and then another would take the lead. The first- half of the game ■was non-iabation -which seemed to agree-with the ADPi’s as they zoomed ahead with, a 6 point lead. In the second half the game was switched to rotation and the Al pha -Xi'.s began to creep up. Just as the score was about to be tied, a new spark of energy, supplied by the - scores of boosters of the ADPi team, lit the way to victory for the latter. During the last five minutes of the game the ADPis scored 11 points making the final score 42 to 28. Outstanding Players Outstanding players of the game were Martha Cool, Alpha Xi Delta center front, who did a mar velous job of smashing and killing the ball, Lolly Armstrong, Alpha Delta Pi center front who must have had springs hidden in her shoes because of the way she shot up into the air to slam down the ball. ADPi Nancy Mutz has a ter rific serve that is seldom stopped ~'by the best of them. Kappa Aipna rneta aaaea an other winning score to their one win, two defeats, evening up their games to two wins, two defeats. This very close game was tied at the half and see-sawed back and forth until near the end of the game when Thetas gained two points. When the whistle blew end ing the game, the final score was 32-30. Shirley Raeder Aces Shirley Raeder, Zeta Tau, play ing the center back position, is a credit to her team. She seems to be able to place her volleys any where on the opposing team’s court. With just one hand she can hit with such swiftness that the ball is very hard to return. A very good player for the vic tors of this exciting match is Sis Scott, frosh and also center back, who plays a very powerful game. V Another good and amusing play er for the Thetas is Martha Hock. Amusing because every time you look for her, you’ll find her sitting on the floor, not because she’s tired, but because she can’t seem to keep on her feet. The close games that have been played this wTeek seem to run in streaks and such was the spectac ular display of teamwork between Orides and Alpha Chi Omega. One team and then another took the lead, while the spectators and root ers went wild with spirit and en thusiasm. Orides won out in the tussle, scoring 32 to 30. Strange But Furious One of the most unusual games yet played this season was between Judson House and Delta Delta Del ta, both undefeated. When the whistle blew for the half-time the score was in favor of Judson house. Both teams fought furi ously, battling back and forth, for the outcome of this game meant much to both teams. .^--'At the end of the game both teams were tense and excited as the score was announced tied at 29 to 29.

These teams meet Saturday in Yankee Stadium, in a virtual play-off for the title slipped to fourth, one behind Ala bama, after last Saturday. The Crimson tide of Alabama was third after their last Saturday massacre over Kentucky 60-19. Next in line is St. Mary's of California, then Indiana, Michigan, Ohio State, Pennsylvania and Columbia. The University of Washington rated in the second ten, while Southern California, was given honorable mention. Some changes this week are probable, after the Navy-Michigan tilt that takes place on midship men home grounds, and the big Army-Notre Dame game. California Drills For Trojan Clash BERKELEY, Nov. 9.—Deter mined to knock the USC Trojans out of the Rose Bowl race, the University of California Bears today settled down to hard work for their tilt with the Southern Californians in Los Angeles this Saturday. Although the Bears only tied Washington State by a 7-7 score last Saturday, they showed con siderable improvement over pre vious games and gave notice that they will be hard to beat from now on in. Only a momentary lapse which enabled WSC to score on a long pass, kept California from scoring its second conference victory. No Bear Injuries The Bears escaped any serious injury in the Cougar game and will be at their strongest since the beginning of the season. Newcom ers Walt Meyer, Bill Gardner, Jack Suseoff and Tony Messina who joined the squad only last week now have been familiarized with Shaw’s system and should help California’s cause. St. Mary’s lopsided defeat of the Trojans also has given the Bears new hope and they will be out to hand USC its third defeat in a row. The Trojans also will be hurt by the less of first string ends, Captain Jim Callahan and Harry McKinney. Sharpening Passing Game With California’s running attack back in working order once more, Coach Buck Shaw plans to spend more time this week sharpening up the passing game which has failed to work consistently in re cent tilts. Quarterbacks Ed Welch and Bob Powell and fullbacks Ted Kenfield and Bud Buestad are scheduled for extra workouts in the passing department. Following their game with the Trojans in Los Angeles this Sat urday, the Bears will return to Berkeley to play the University of Oregon the next Saturday, the game scheduled to start half an hour earlier than previous games, the kickoff being at 2 p.m. sharp. Yeomen Dance Yeomen, independent men’s or ganization are planning to hold a dance and party sometime in the near future, according to president Harry Granger. Further informa tion about this dance, which will be a date affair, will Be released next week through the Emerald. The children’s party was draw ing to a close and the cook triumphantly brought in a heap ing platter of jello. As she put it on the table, the jello quivered and shook. Most of the children ex claimed with delight, but one started to leave the table. “None' of that for me,” he said, “it’s not dead yet.” Coach Gerald A. (Tex) Oliver, veteran mentor of the Uni versity of Oregon Webfoots. Oliver and his team entrained last night for Pullman. Washington, where they will meet the Wednesday for Pullman.

Showing signs of re covering from the formidable schedule that has called upon H-Taylor Tells Social Problems By GENEAL COWAN Social complexities in connection with the individual differences of learning formed the basis of Dr. H. R. Taylor’s address to social science classes Thursday. Head of the psychology department, Dr. Taylor was guest lecturer speak ing in conjunction with social science background studies. According to Dr. Taylor, there are two major problems facing us today. One is man’s demand for equality and democracy and an other is the disagreement among people regarding even distribution according to production. New Solution This social situation will not be solved in the old way; he asserted, “new ways must be found.” The solution then would seem to be one of "continual process of social learning and thinking”; the adap tation of the individual to the group. Citing experiments of the Ger man scientist, Koehler, Dr. Taylor pointed out that humans learn not only by the trial and error method but by Koehler’s proven theory of insight. “There is a tremendous range of individual differences among people which must be recognized,” he said. New School System Answering his own question, “Can individual differences be ironed out by education?” Dr. Taylor explained' that education would provide for extensive prac tice and opportunity but that actually “differences in individual aptitudes cannot be erased by any amount of education.” I To meet the situation involving them to play in six successive Week ends. One change has been made in the starting lineup. Bill Morin, fresh man from Marshfield, will replace Curtis Deskins at right tackle. At center, Neil Diess, a yearling from Oakridge who had had only six man football experience until this season, has been advanced to num ber 1 alternate with center Bill' Anderson. Neil did a fine job on line backing aaginst Washington in Portland last week.
