a short talk, showed the inadvisabil

of such a troubled school year, and
closed by nominating R. Burns Powell

unanimous.

Buck Kelly, Old Glee Club Star and
Prominent Fraternity Man, De
plores Conditions.
Hood River, Ore., Jan. 18, ’12.
To the Editor of the Emerald:
I was very sorry not to have a fur
ther talk with you in regard to the
graduate coach matter, and think that
I could have enlightened you not so
much in regard to the advisibility of
the system, or of any coaching sy
stems, as I could on the fraternity
matter, which is the one most import
ant feature at the University at pres
ent. And you may take it from me
also, that it is the most trivial matter
of the whole scheme of things. If
the students in college do not use
caution and judgment in regard to
their relations with various clubs, so
cieties, fraternities, etc., it is but a
thing of short coming, before they
are abolished altogether, both the
good and the bad. and you know your
self that this would not be altogether
right.
Life in college is somewhat differ
ent than it is after graduation, al
though you can’t make the under
graduate think this. He is living in
an ideal existence, and he thinks on
ideal lines. He is not at all practical;
he questions motives of every one,
whether they come from representa
tives of the fraternity set, or the non
fraternity set. Self centered, he is
selfish, also, if he belongs to a club
or fraternity, he has merely lined up
with a number of self centered and
selfish fellows. No wonder you all
mistrust each other. You are all
getting further and further away
from the true democracy every day,
and it is time for some one to start
something different.
Speaking from my own experience,
I know that the fraternity idea will
not be featured by the smallest frac
tion in the make up of the squad or
team. Fraternity men, after grad
uation, look back on their fraternity
conduct and ideas while in college
with surprise. They are surprised at
their own conceited conception of
themselves and wonder how they
could have ever acted so crazy as to
imagine they were any better off than
any one else. After graduation a
man realizes, as never before, that he
must stand in his own shoe leather.
No social associations can help him
j any. That is the reason an old Ore
gon graduate, a fraternity man, looks
with contempt upon the foolish fra
ternity controversy going on at the
University, both for and against. He
feels nothing but contempt for the
petty struggle, contempt for his own
undergraduate fraternity brothers,
those of the other fraternities, or
those of the non-fraternity students.
It is really the most ludicrous thing
you can imagine.
Rut don’t let the Fraternity bogey
bother anyone down there. Get it out
of the student body system some way;
but get it out. It is a creation of
your own imagination. In the old
days, when I was a Freshman, a man
earned his place on the team by his
ability and merit. The men we have
been discussing for head coach are
products of that period. The only
question in my mind is the timber
and ability of some of the men men
tioned as coaches. Pick Smith is the
best, I am willing to take a chance
with any of them. I don’t care
whether they are fraternity men or
not. If he is not a fraternity man,
he can rely on my support, whatever
its value, just the same as if he were
a member of my own fraternity. I
want to see things run right down
there. The fraternity business is a
second consideration. After you have
been out of college five years, it is
about fifth consideration. As you
grow older, it dwindles more.
Trusting that you will do your part
to correct all these little petty differ
ences and with best wishes for suc
cess, I am as ever.
Yours faithfully,
BUCK' KELLY.
