LECTURE COURSE WILL BE~
BEST IN HISTORY OF COLLEGE
Many Fine Attractions Arranged for This
Year's Course—First Number, Bergen-
Marx Trio, October 19
The final arrangements for the
lecture course of this year have been
completed. The lecture course as
offered far surpasses anything that
has ever been offered before at this
institution. Every Dumber from
start to finish is a live, up-to-date at
traction. The personnel of every
number has a reputation that is na
tion wide and some have reputations
which they made before European
audiences.
First on the lecture- course, and
the one that occurs on Saturday, the
19th of October, Is the Bergen-Mary,
Trio. This company has for its per
sonnel, first. Alfred lliles Bergen,
Mr. Bergen, who has a rich baritone
voice, comes to us after a success
ful tour of Europe. The fact alone
that the Lyceum bureau has taken
out a policy for $120,000 on his
voice assures us of the wonderful
voice that be has.
With Mr. Bergen are three other
well known musicians. Leon Marx.,
violinist, one time played at the Met
ropolitan opera house with Nordica,!
Ysaye and others. The next mem-1
ber of this company is Hans Drissel,
the solo violoncellist. The pianist of
this group is Carl Machlin. He
comes to us from the- Chicago Music'
College.
Space prohibits us from telling
one-half of the nice things of this
company, or of the following attrac
tions. Yet the names of many of
these people are familiar and need
little introduction, especially is this
true of the second attraction, that
of Miss Katherine Rldgeway.
Miss Rldgeway is really one of us.
having started her career from Col
fax. She is a graduate of the Uni
versity of Washington. After finish
ing at the "U" she attended the Bos
ton School of Oratory. After finish
ing there, she was a member of the
Temple Quartet. which toured
Canada and the United States for
two years. Miss Rldgeway is sail
to be the best known reader of the
present generation. She will be as
sisted by Miss Evangeline Bridge, a
pianist, who is a graduate of tin- New
England Conservatory of Music and
for a number of years was an in
structor at that place This number
will be on tin- 6th of December,
The third number will come a
month later, on January 7. This will
be the noted reformer, Governor B
W. Hoch of Kansas. Governor Hoch
is an interesting, eloquent speaker
He has a good voice and has some
thing to say. His reputation as a
speaker has gone for beyond his home
state, and the reputation which lie
made while governor of Kansas will
ever be remembered.
During the latter part of the same
month, on the 24th of January,
comes Strickland W. Glllilan, the
humorist. Mr. Glllilan, with his hu
mor, has a message hidden away that
makes even an evening of merriment
worth while as an educational factor.
On March 6 Mr. Ralph Bingham.
»c entertainer, will make us forget
al! about our troubles. It might be
'bought that this is hard for one man
to do, but not so after you hear about
Wm. How does he entertain? First,
»* is a story teller, not a dead num
ber, but one who tolls live up-to-dat?
dories. Yet, that is only one of three
tit his wonderful accomplishments.
He has a rich baritone voice and is
ni> artist on the piano. The Daily
Reporter, in a sentence, places bin
before us; "Mr. Bingham is a humor
at of the first class. He dramatizes
music with his voice, recites funny
fetches till the tears of laughter
"ot a-down one's cheeks and plays
tlie violin like Ole Bull." A man who
has Such talent as this combined and
who Is an artist at each and every
('Q will be worth traveling many
n,i>'-s to hear.
T° conclude this extraordinary lee
'Ur course will be the greatest and
Priced of them all, the Ben
Greet Players. This number will be.
* Play under th- management of Ben
* lfl y - The company is composed of
0 Players who will present either
°ne of two well known plays, "The
omedy 0 Errors" or "She Stoops
10 Conquer."
_ In a brief way we can say that this
Ure course is so weH suited to
college and college community that
|^ cry single number will be greatly
PPreeiated. Especially is this tru a
ti ause every student possesses -\
J" *t and can enjoy the best any
*h"e offered.
Ar** season tickets now on sale, and
w £ h include all the other events
toe college year, will admit to tho
: Ure course. In past years a sep
"rate lecture course ticket has been
ottered to the public, this win not

liberal government has spent $14".

IDAHO LOOKS DANGEROUS
, 10 I. S. C. SUPPORTERS
Our Neighbors Across the Line Loom Up
Strong in Preparation for the Big
Contest of the Year
College students attending the fair
in progress at Moscow last week
bring hack almost unbelievable re
ports concerning the strength of
Idaho University's football team this
year and the optimism shown there
over tin- game to be played with
Coach Bender's squad of pigskin
chasers here- on October 18, These
reports have in no way assisted in
raising the spirits of the local sport
ing contingent and Coach Bender
fairly sweats with melancholy when
ever his thoughts turn toward th -
Idaho game.
That it will be a great scrap, there
Is not the slightest doubt. Accord-
Ing to the dope it is Idaho's time
to win. as \v. S. C. is one game ahead
now ami history has so far shown
that it is almost always an even ex
change. This year they havo avowed
their Intention of evening It all up
by winning.
Coach Bender's pessimism has a
foundation in the facts, among other
things, that Idaho has In McCormick,
the Southern Idaho boy, a better
punter than W. S. (' F. Goff, Kien
holz, Moeser and Caddis have all
been booting the ball, but none- have
shown the class that the Idaho man
Is reported to possess. In the drop
and place kicking department Idaho
also has several phenoms, one being
a young wizard from South Dakota
whose name could not lie- learned,
working. Considering this man of
Unknown quantity, Washington is
still outclassed, as Hums, an Idaho !
mainstay, has been dropping the
spheroid over the crossbar from tlie-
SB-yard line, a feat that is by no
means common on Rogers Field.
Captain Perkins, reported the least

as good as any of Bender's hooters,

past few nights and while the seem
to possess plenty of sua]) and g'-tn.er.
he frankly confesses that he in disap
pointed to the showing they make- in
regard to staying qualities!l Injuries
seem to discourage them too easily,
he thinks, and he- admits ell appoint
ment in tin- scrappiness of his bunch.
"Pep" is drilled Into them daily, but
still they appear to be too ready to
complain about minor injuries.
"Football," say s Bender, "is a!
rough game, and when a fellow goes '
Into it it should be with Hid expec
tation of taking the bumps he g>-ts
in a manly manner and laying noth
ing of them."
Idaho has dally a bunch of
fighters and VV. S. C. must have them
If she expects to win
Oregon has a squad of 50 odd
candidates working under Coach
Pinkham nightly and from reports
they will have to he looked upon
when the words "Northwest cham
pions" are being spoken. All the vet
erans are being pushed hard by the
new men. and it will be remembered
that Oregon has a hunch of true and
tried veterans, so look out for Ore
gon and do not underestimate them.
Hartsuck, a former star of XV. S.
C, is out for the team and is show
ing class at his old position at guard.
Kenton will he- shifted to guard on
account of hi.- weight an I Jones,
Bradshaw, Anunsen, Purdy, the
Coeur d'Alene star, will strive with
other aspirants for tho end positions,
Coach ham's tentative hack
field includes Captain Walker,
Heuzner, Coos (another 200-pound
Cpeur d'Alene- star), and Cornell.
Cornell Is rated as the find of the
season and Is not only a general hot
a fine defensive player. He iv being

merchant of Pinkham string of
quarterbacks. All of these men may
lie supplanted by Parsons. Brledwell,

of the numerous "dark horses" avail
able,
In spite of all the optimism preva
lent about the campus Coat Pink
ham. Moores arid Main refuse to
commit themselves concerning Ore
gon's championship propecte.
Next in line, and the champions of
last, year, la the consideration of
Doble's old time "hear" stories, and
what in- really has got and Is de
pending upon. So far, all the reports
from Doble are that the men are
slow in rounding into condition and
the prospects are poor, wors* than ;
ever, but an we have Dobie'a number
we know Just how to take this and
will not under-estlmate his team a_
being a fore-runner for the 1912 f
championship.
The appearance of several now j
high school stars and the improve
ment in form of a number of the
members of last rear's squad, has
materially raised the prospects of
Doble's crowd. Despite the- injury to
Jacquot, the learn looks stronger
every day and as Jacquot's injury is
only temporary he will bo out again
in a few days.
Bruce and Friedman, the former a
Freshman from Lincoln high school
of Seattle and the latter a member of
Ho- second team last ear. have been
tin- surprises of the scrimmages so
far. Friedman really was good
enough for any other team In the
conference last fall, but with Patten
and Bass to buck, could not get
placed.
Big Devlne Is bigger and better
than ever and will bo shown the
punting game under the tutoring of
Max Kakins, the "U'b" premier kick
er ami assistant coach.
•The report is out that Tom Wand.
who will undoubtedly fill "Wee"
Coyle's place at quarter, has over
trained during the past summer, but
this Is mostly "bear." Fa lie her, the
Spokane high captain of last year, Is
showing up well at quarter, as Is
Smith, a second string man of last
year.
Donnan, Herrett and Bhiel, an
other Spokane high star, are still at
halfback and fullback positions, and
Donnan Is the only one that has a
call on a position, and seems to be
a fixture. Bhiel is slow on getting
started and llerrett is merely filling
in until Jacquoi returns.
Secret practice has begun, but the
elongated coach has announced that
one day a week will be reserved for
fill students to see the team In actio-,.
There will be- nothing informative- to
any extent. The move Is considered
simply as a concession to a demand
Which has beer, felt for some time.
O. A. ('.. with the loss of Carl
son, last year's center, and Dewarte,
the speedy left halfback, who hat
just passed up the moleskin for a
business suit, almost counteracts the
effects of tin outlook which other
wise might look promising.
Blackwell, all-Northwest high
school full back of Aberdeen, bid
fair to he able to duplicate lis high
school tricks in varsity company, to
gether with Larson, Rasmus en, Mc-
Kenzie ami Lay the. Dewey of Ash
land, who promises to make good at
quarter; Flint, trying for left half
back, and Taythe, working at guard,
are other first year men ' hal loo*
promising. Captain Sitton and the
oldtiiners are bowing up in good
shape- at their regular positions and
lack only an adequate back field to
put them in good fighting form.
Evonden bids fair to exceed his
last year's record and make his third
year on the Orange team his best.
Kellogg will be seen in his regular
position at right end, and Rasmussen
Is the- dope-favored candidate for the
other end position. Captain May
and "Big" Moore will probably hold
down the tackle jobs as both won
regulars on the 1911 team. Mc-
Kenzfe will fill Barlson's shoes at
center. "Hunky" Shaw and Robert
son complete the contingent of vet
erans, and are- handling themselves
In corresponding fashion.
