UNIVERSITY TEAM
WILL VISIT OREGON
IDAHO VANDALS WILL PLAY
WEB-FOOTERS THIS WEEK
WILL START THURSDAY.

Coach David MacMillan's Univer-
sity of Idaho basketball luminants,
undisputedly the ablest of the east
side northwest conference quintets,
will leave Thursday afternoon on a
trip to the coast which is expected to
decide the 1921 conference champion
ship. o. A. c., Oregon and Villa
mette are the teams which the Idaho
five will meet.
If MacMillan's Vandals can return
from their Oregon jaunt with vic
tories over the three institutions
mentioned, the northwest title will be
readily within their grasp. Oregon,
which has yet to be defeated by a
northwest conference team, is the
most feared of the three rivals to be
met.
o. A. c., the first team to be en-
countersed, will be met in the Corval-
lis gymnasium Friday and Saturday
nights; Oregon will be played at Eu-
gene Monday and the Willamette
team will be faced in it's own baili-
wick Tuesday. The trip will close
with an appearance against the fast
Multnomah Athletic Club quintet in
Portland Wednesday.
Coach Macmillan has not yet an
nounced the names of the men who
will make the trip, but it is believed
that he will carry Captain Hunter of
Moscow, Rich Fox of Nez Perce and
Eugene Hyde of Boise, guards; Bill
Carder of Moscow and Pat Perrine of
Nez Perce, centers; and L. Nelson
Moe of Kellogg, Ward Wyman of
Boise and Al Fox of Nez Perce, for
wards.
University students plan to give
the team vociferous send-off when
it leaves Thursday afternoon.

NOTED SEA GIANT OBSOLETE
Famous British eattleship That
Blocked kaiser's Ambitions
Will Be Strapped.

It was announced by the British ad-
miralty on June l that the old battle
ship Dreadnaught, first of a famous
class, was to be broken up. The ad-
miralty has sold the once mighty YES
sci, which blocked all the kaiser's
naval ambitions, together with over
100 other obsolete battleships, cruisers,
monitors, destroyers and torpedo
boats, says Current History.
Launched on February 2, 1905, with
her ten Pinch guns. her complete
armored belt and her speed Of 81
knots, she not only made the rest
of the British fleet obsolete, but also
the rapidly growing feet on which the
Germans were building their hopes.
The Dreadnaught meant that the
Kiei canai had TO be widened, the
locks enlarged and the docks rebuilt.
German time and money that might
have been spent on constructive work
were wasted on mere alterations.
Though the design was varied, every
capital ship laid down by every coun'
try since then has been built on the
all-big-gun model of the Dreadnaught.
The new battleship type, initiated by
the late Lord Fisher, was a stroke Of
genius.
When the great conflict began in
1914. Great Britain held an unques-
toned advantage on the sea. And
now, only Is years AFTER King Ed
ward VIII launched the great vessel
at Portsmouth, with Lord Fisher
standing at his side, the Dreadnaught
goes to the scrap heap, hopelessly OBJ
solete. Such is the speed Of naval
progress; sic transit gloria. The ad-
vocates of a naval holiday-a period
OF lesscned activity in battleship build
ing-have here an argument on their
side.

Not many Of US, am sure. are like
the man, more eager to amass wealth
than wise, who wished his sleeping
room furnished with the most hideous
furniture possible, SO he would not
be tempted TO spend moment there
after he awoke, but would get up at
0nce and be at his work as quickly as
possible. He may have been a good
business man, but he was woefully
ignorant of the fact that our surround.
tngs impress themselves on our con
scious and subsconscious mind and
ones waking mood has a vital effect
on the days work.
This is the reason we take good care
to see that our sleeping apartments
are pleasant rooms and there is moth
ing in them to irritate or destroy their
air Of calmness and repose.
In most homes. sleeping rooms serve
also for dressing rooms. and this
makes their requirement of good light
more insistent. The many glaring
effects one sees in broad daylight
could be eliminated if the light by
which women dressed showed them
exactly how they would look in the
bright light of day. A novel and very
practical use OF the new blae-tinted
electric lamps Is to place them in
dense glass shades on either side of
the dressing table. where they give
soft pleasant light. nearly approaching
