JAPANESE BACK WITH BRIDE.
Clever University Student Returns to Take Important Place.
Shunzo Takaki, a University of Pennsylvania Wharton School gradu- ate and a brilliant athlete in his day, returned to this country from Japan, bringing with him his bride, who was Tatsuo Mitsiu, one of the wealthiest women of Japan. Mr. Takaki was married Oct. 9, and returns to New York to assume an important place in the banking firm of his father-in-law, Mitsiu & Co., which financed the first Japanese bond issue in the recent war with Russia.
The young bridegroom was a mem- ber of the class of 1908, played on the football and baseball teams, was a member of "Philo" and Phi Delta Theta fraternity. At the very outset of his college course in 1904 Takaki and his Japanese "frat" brother Kehe- yi Iwaya, distinguished themselves by handling three "sophs" apiece in the campus rush by means of jiu-jitsu. Takaki came east from Seattle with his bride this fall and showed her through old Penn's campus .- The Franklin, Franklin, Ind.
IT WILL BE A MUSICAL EVENT.
Quality of Next Tuesday's Concert Is Given a Guarantee.
There is something new about the concert to be given by the Ottawa oratorio society at the Baptist church next Tuesday night-something new in addition to the unusual numbers and unusual quality of the music. A guarantee is made by Mr. Bixel that anybody who doesn't happen to be sat- isfied with the program can have his money back. The admission is 25 cents .
Nearly 200 singers will take part in the program. The society will give three choruses, two from the "Mes- siah." One will be a secular number.
The male and female choruses from the college will give several numbers. "I know that Ottawa has a great musi- cal history," said Professor Bixel to- day, 'but I am confident in saying that not in many years will
she have heard such music as will be given at this concert."
Among the accompanists will be the Misses Forbes, Harris, Simpson, Davis, Turner and Stannard and Messrs. Nash and Saunders.

Just at the last moment, when it was thought that all was arranged, and the ora- tions were ready to send away, two judges sent word that they must give up the work, thus making it necessary to correspond with others at quite a distance. This, however, will be ar- ranged and will not in the least in- terfere with the contest.

THE ORATORIO SOCIETY MADE A HIT IN OTTAWA
AN APPEARANCE OF O. U. MUSI- CAL ORGANIZATION AT BAP- TIST CHURCH TUESDAY.
Oratorio Chorus, Male and Female Choruses, Mixed and Campus Quartets Sang.
The first public concert of the sea- son by the Ottawa oratorio society, given at the First Baptist church Tues- day night, was one of the best ever beard here. The chorus of 200 voices vas assisted by the university male and female choruses, the mixed and male quartets, Misses Frances Allen and Lenna Emerson, and R. Lee Os- burn as vocal soloists. An orchestra composed of Misses Mary Coler Dav- s, Mabel Stannard, Robert Nash, vio- ins; W. G. Saunders, clarinet, and Misses Nelle Harris, Ruth Simpson and Nellie Turner, piano; and Miss Lucy K. Forbes, pipe organ, assisted.
The program was made up of selec- tions from the "Messiah," the "Eli- jah" and other musical masterpieces. The selections from the "Messiah" gave Ottawa a taste of the great con- cert to be given commencement week next June. The selections by the male quartet and the male chorus were es- pecia'ly pleasing and brought forth demands for more. The quartet was twice encored.
The quartet gave part of the
repertoire which it gave last night at Wel'sville. The organiza- tion, which is composed of Messrs. Bachman, Martin, Barrett and Jen- mings, will make several trips to near- by towns this winter. All the musi- (al bodies which appeared Tuesday night, including the oratorio chorus, are directed by Prof. J. W. Bixel, and the size and quality of Ottawa's chorus under his direction, as shown in the concert, was a surprise even to many who have known of the preparatory work for the past several months.
The attendance was not as large as the quality of the entertainment rocks at the museum.
merited-for nothing less than a pack- ed house would have shown proper appreciation of the program given -- but it was still large enough to give evidence of Ottawa's appreciation of good music and a great chorus move- mment.

FERRIS GETS SPECIMENS.
Located in Colorado Mining Region, He Gathers Fossils.
Prof. Wilson has received a letter from Gordon Ferris, who is located at Telluride, Colorado. Ferris says he has collected some fine fossils and mineral specimens since he has been out there and asks Prof. Wilson if he would not like to have them for the Ottawa museum. Ferris is working in the mining country out there and consequently has an excellent oppor- tunity to gather specimens. During his schooling at Ottawa Ferris spent a great part of his time classifying the
BETHANY WON GAME WITH OTTAWA TEAM 33-13
COACH WANN'S WOMEN'S TEAM ROMPED ALL OVER THE LO- CALS MONDAY NIGHT.
Ottawa Players Started to Run Up the Score But Visitors Soon Out- Distanced Them.
The game started out like a victory for Ottawa, the home team piling up a few scores at the very start, but the visiting players soon demonstrated that they were here to win. A lead off by Bethany about the middle of - the first half was maintained through- out the game.
The Bethany forwards, Bengston and Odell, and Callahan, guard for Bethany, starred for the visitors. Kapp was probably the best player for the Ottawa team. Callahan com- pletely shut out the Ottawa forward, Anthony, from scoring.
It was understood up to within a few minutes before the game started that five would play on a side, but Coach Wann insisted that six should play on a side and the game was played that way.
Coach N. G. Wann, formerly of Ot .- tawa University, who accompanied the team, refereed, and Manager Har- rv George umpired. There was no disputing, and the game was played hard and fast. It was a fine exhibi- tion of a women's game. Because of an oversight, no score was kept of each player. The lineups were as follows:

FOOTBALL PLAYERS ARE GENTLEMEN AND SCHOLARS
CO SAY COACHES STAGG AND ROPER, REPLYING TO PROF. WILSON'S INQUIRIES.
Frank Inquiries From C .. airman of Ottawa's Athletic Committee Bring Frank Answers.
That football does not impair the heart action, that football players are as gentlemanly as other college stu- dents and ale no more apt to give way to excessive appetites, and fur- themore, that football players are, as a rule, as good students as any, are the opinions given by Coach A. A. Stagg, of Chicago, and Coach Wil- liam A. Roper, of the Missouri Tigers.
Letters written to Prof. W. B. Wil- son, chairman of the athletic commit- tee of the University faculty, bring out the above facts. Desiring to get answers from football directors, Prof. Wilson sent a list of questions direct- ly to Coach Stagg, Coach Roper, Dr. Williams, of Minnesota, and Bert Kennedy. Answers have not yet been received from the last two.
The questions asked were:
1. Do football players of three or four years experience on big teamns suffer from impaired heart action?
2. Do football players plunge into excesses of appetite at the close of the season ?
3. Are football players on your teams poor students as a rule and do they rarely graduate?
4. Are they successful in other walks of life after quitting school?
Coach Stagg's reply was as fol- lows:
"May I say in reply to your letter that every athlete as well as every la- borer who indulges in strenuous work has a larger heart than that which is considered normal. From our exper- ience at Chicago I would state that we have found that no athletic sport so fully develops young men as foot- ball. Our football men universally have gained more in weight, strength and vigor than the athletes of any other of our sports. The men also have a favorable development organ- ically. We have never found in our examinations any impairment of
heart action by playing football, and I know of cases where weak and ir- regular hearts have been benefited by playing football. From our experience here I would say that the football men do not plunge into excesses of
appetite. 1 always encourage the
men to continue a daily exercise af.cr the football season is over, and nearly all of the men follow this plan. I have never been a believer in the suggestions of some trainers to lay off because of their being in athletic work at certain periods. I encourage my men to exercise the year round but to be sensible in the amounts which they take.
"The question of football men be- ing poor students is entirely relative. Where the institution requires a cer- ain standard of work to be eligible 'he football player cannot be a poor student. Where football absorbs a large share of the student's time very naturally he cannot do as good work is he might do otherwise. But under be system we have here in Chicago, 'n ing the fall season the scholarship f the football team is only a slight " centage less good than it is during he other quarters of the year. In he early days of our University when . le eligibility rules were just coming nto vogue we had some members of what might be termed the ‘athletic student,' and such men, as you know, are always more interested in ath- 'etics than they are in studies and 'beir scholarship was corresponding- ly poor. As a rule such men are poor scholars. Such athletic students it has also been universally found do not always graduate, and I think all of our colleges and universities have had some of that type of athletes. The only satisfactory condition for the conduct of inter-collegiate ath- letics is to have a set of wise regula- tions to govern them, and it is always best for the colleges which are nat- ural rivals to unite in agreement upon what these regulations shall be."
Coach Roper's reply was more brief and to the point, but essentially the same:
In reply to your letter of January 18th, I would say: First, every foot- ball player of three or four experience does most emphatically not suffer from impaired heart action. The sta- +istics show that rowing and track work are much more violent. If boys who play the game are in good physi- ral condition there is little chance of their becoming injured. You also should insist upon having all candi- dates for the eleven examined physi- cally before they engage in the game. It has been my experience that the majority of football players sre gentlemen and do not plunge into que, kind of excess. I think you will - Ish find that as a general rule foot- ball players are no poorer students
than are the rest of the men who ? tend college. My experience has ber that in after life many of the me who have played or engaged in at letics at college make good.
TELLURIDE HIGH WINS.
Leslie Ferris' Basketball Bunch Pres ing Hard for Championship.
Readers of the Campus will be i terested in knowing that Leslie Fe 1is '09, who is teaching at Tellurid Colo., is coaching three good baske ball teams in addition to his teachir work. The words "good basketba teams" are used advisedly, for th Campus is informed that the team are winners. The high school boy and girls' teams have recently r turned from a successful trip. A teal of firemen is being coached by Ferri and in a recent game the mill me were defeated by the firemen by score of 24 to 12.
"There are more good basketba players in this town than any plac on the map. It's our only sport, an interest runs high. My high schoc boys play the remainder of thei schedule at home and things loo good to me for the championship c the western slope of Colorado," say Mr. Ferris in a letter to Manage Martin.
Mr. Ferris congratulates Capi George, and the men's basketbal
team of O. U.
MR. MACK REPLIES.
He Explains About a Certain Article in the Salina Journal.
John A. Shields, Ottawa's represen tative in the oratorical contest a Wichita, has received a letter from President Roy Mack, of the associa tion, in which he explains concerning an article which was published in the Salina Journal a short time ago.
A Journal reporter, says Mr. Mack interviewed him and ascertained that Mr. Shields had taken honors in the Minnesota prohibition contest. HE also found that Mr. Shields had in formed Mr. Mack that a small portion of the former's oration was taken from some of his own writings. Mr Shields had written to Mr. Mack in order that no charge of plagiarism might arise.
"I took the position that a man could not plagiarize his own writ. ings." wrote Mr. Mack.
The Journal article misrepresented matters a little, and President Mack is very sorry that it was published.

MORE ABOUT RUGBY THE ENGLISH GAME
T IS ESTIMATED THAT 100,000 PEOPLE WATCH GAMES EV- ERY SATURDAY.
The Championship Series There Ex- cites as Much Interest as Base- ball Does in America.
Rugby football season is now in full wing in the British Isles. The sea- on opens in October and runs for even or eight months. In that coun- ry, the football season is much dif- erent. Every town and village has team and has games scheduled for very Saturday afternoon. For about hree or four months there are no ig games, it being merely a prepara- ory season. Of course, this season is ery interesting for the rival towns, ut the championship games do not cour until in February.
England is divided into five parts. n each part is approximately six ounties. The small towns and ath- etic clubs arrange a schedule and lay for the championship of the ounty. The county champions then lay for the championship of their re- pective division. When the division hampionships are decided the win- ing teams play for the championship ¿ England.
This same process is gone through 1 England, Scotland, Wales and Ire- .nd. By this time the players are so developed that an all-star team is se- cted.
Tle Rugby headquarters is located London. A committee is appointed England, Scotlad, Wales and Ire- Ind, whose duty it is to select an all- ar team such as is selected by Wal- r Camp in America. These teams e selected from the different club id town teams.
These are the teams which com- te in the international champion- ip games between England, Scot- nd, Wales and Ireland. Each team ays the other once, and if there is tie, for first honors, the champion- ip is awarded according to the mber of points scored by each side. Special interest is taken in the atch between England and Scotland a cup called the Calcutta cup is mpeted for betwe teams from ese two provinces.
In the match between England and ales this year, the English won ›m Wales for the first time in ·ven years.
A cup is given to each member of
a club who competes in a certain number of games. A cup is also given for every game in which a player competes in the international.
Rugby is governed by the Amateur Athletic Union and is free from pro- fessionalism which has ruined the soccer game.
The Rugby game is played in uni- forms similar to our basketball suits. Injuries are very rare.
It is estimated that 100,000 people witness this game every Saturday aft- ernoon in the British Isles.
DRAMATIC CLUB SOCIAL.
Members Entertained Saturday Eve- ning by Miss Grace Daniel.
Miss Grace Daniel entertained the members of the Philal Dramatic club in a most delightful manner at her home on Cedar street last Saturday evening.
Familiar games were played and a most enjoyable time was had. Late in the evening, the hostess, assisted by Miss Myrtle Balyeat, served light refreshments consisting of hot choco- late. and wafers.
After this a short business session was held and plans formulated for the coming semester.
The members of the club include: Misses Elsie Dietrich, Lily Haynes, Margaret Osgood, Mabel Nichols, Edna Woods, Myrtle Balyeat, Lena Scheuffler, Kathryn Garnett, Alta Sur- tees, Ruth Larson, Augusta Geisen- hener, Clara Kapp, Nelle Pattie, Irene Henderson, Agnes Mitchell, Helen Hockersmith, Caroline E.

AN ORCHESTRA CONCERT.
First Trip This Season to Be Made to lola Next Week.
On next Wednesday or Thursday, the exact date to be decided later, the Ottawa University orchestra will give its first out-of-town concert at Iola. The orchestra, under the direction of Robert Nash, has been practicing hard for several weeks and has a large selection of music. It is plan- ned to give several other concerts out of town before the season closes.
R. Lee Osburn, as baritone soloist, and Miss Anna Wallace, as reader, will probably accompany the orches- tra to Iola.
HAD A REAL
CLASS SCRAP.
The Freshmen and Sophomore Boys Tangled Up Saturday, When Class Rivalry Culminated in Fine Exhibition of Prowess.
Class spirit, which had been blow- ing off at intervals during the week of the Freshman-Sophomore debate, found an outlet in one grand class scrap last Saturday morning. Experts pronounced it one of the cleanest and best class fights in the history of the school.
It all came about this way. Early Friday morning a few freshmen painted their colors-green and white -on the dome of Science hall over the former soph coat. So in retalia- tion, Saturday morning during chapel, several sophomore boys climbed up and painted the dome black. The freshmen appeared on the scene. Shutting part of the sophomores up in the upper part of Science hall, the freshies quickly tied up three or four of the others. Then they let the rest down from the dome, attempting to seize and tie them as they descended. Dr. Price then interfered, and ordered the sophs to be untied and the stu- dents to return to their class rooms.
But by this time nearly all the col- lege had turned out and was lined up on one side or the other, cheering the two classes. At last seeing that their spirits could not be restrained much longer and thinking it would be well to have the fight over with, Dr. Price announced that he would give the classes thirty minutes to fight it out. Then they went at it. The freshmen, who outnumbered the sophomores, put their enemies down. It was a fair, open scrap, with no trickery, anger or bad language. Its only draw- back was the mudy field.
When time was called, part of the freshmen were on top, while a few of the sophs were on top. The dome now shines with a bright coat of red paint, the work of the janitor.
