In union there is strength. This is especially true in matters of lung capacity ard enthusiasm. This means that every red-blooded Oregon stu dent must attend the game Saturday and that every rooter must hit Al bany at the same instant. We cannot have groups of rooters straggling in at all hours of the day. Oregon’s student body and its spirit will be judged by the crowd that gets off the special at Albany, and unless every Oregon man and woman is on that train, the effect will be weak ened. The official train will leave Eugene at 12:00, and will return from Albany at 5 o’clock. This arrangement removes the dif ficulty of securing meals, for the big crowd in Albany will make them prac tically unobtainable, and also removes any chance of a repetition of the affair of two years ago. The special $1.20 rate applies only to the 12:30 Student Special. The entire Oregon contingent will go en masse and the songs and yells emitted from the windows of the “Oregon Special” will set the country side agog. Remember the time, 12:30. Every body on the spot with an unlimited sunplv of Oregon pip, and remember we’re from old Oregon and we never say die. JOURNALISM CLASS SCORES DUPLICATION OF NEWS The “Extra” which the Emerald got out Monday night to announce the successful completion of arrange ments for a Oregon-O. A. C. pme at Albany, November 2.'!, met with gen eral approval amonjr the students of Journalism. Each one agreed that the news was of sufficient importance to warrant an extra, and said it cov ‘ ered just what they wished to know. A criticism was Riven to the effect that the next edition of the Emerald | contained the same articles in about the same words. This plan of “liftlnR" type from) the extra to the regular edition is the practice of metropolitan newspapers,! who act on the basis that the extra is not read by all its regular readers.

Dill, news editor of the Morning Register of this city, at the request of Professor Allen, spoke to the first year class in journalism yes terday afternoon, on “What to get into a news story.” “All news stories must tell of the who, what, and where and why, or at least imply them, in order to be sat isfactory news stories,” he said in opening his talk. Taking the require ments up separately, Mr. Dill en larged upon the necessity of each from a practical standpoint. “A man is not ashamied of his name,” he said in referring to the importance of getting the name ex act. “Though his name is Thomas, he may call himself Woodrow,” he continued, referring to the President elect. In conclusion, Mr. Dill compared the news world to a big pond where some events, likened to pebbles and rocks, make different sized ripples, signify ing their importance, though they may be far or near. PROFESSOR DEFENDS COLLEGE FRATERNITIES WASHINGTON, D. C., Nov. 19.— That college fraternities have a right to exist in the state universities be cause they are natural social organi zations was urged today by Professor R. M. Hughes, acting president of Miami University, at the second day’s session of the National Association of State Universities. “The fraternities are a natural de velopment among the students,” said Professor Hughes, “and have not been fostered by an external force.” l)r. U. J. Aley, president of the Uni versity of Maine, urged that the re sponsibility of university management be placed upon the students. The University of Columbia is plan ning a riding club and polo team, and expects to be represented in the matches between Pennsylvania und Yale this year. The Senior Laws of Kansas Uni versity have chosen to carry silver headed canes as a mark of distinc tion. The custom was introduced in the University two years ago, in ac cordance with the custom prevalent among professional schools in the East. The tirst law sorority in the United States has been formed in the Univer sity of Southern California college of law. The society is called Alpha. A scholarship requirement for admit- , tance will be maintained. The girls of Mills College gave | “The Canterbury Pilgrims” as their class play this year. The perform ance was successful both as an enter tainment and from the financial stand point. Bouqelsand Brickbats “Pat” or Clifton Nesmith?” New York, Nov. 14, 1912. To the Editor: In reference to the following': “Pat McArthur, ‘Father of Ath letics,’ at the University, Roscoe Bryson, ’89, quarterback on the only Oregon football team that ever de feated the University of California.” Pat McArthur, 1901, is presumably, Clifton Nesmith McArthur? Why not use his name? Oregon had “championship” teams in football anri baseball in 1895 and 1896. McArthur entered September 1896. Roscoe St. Cyr Bryson, 1899, was quarter on the 1895 and 1897 teams. We beat the University of California in October, 1900, and W. B. (?) Scott, known as “Scottie,” was at quarter. “Pat” and “Rock” are, and will be, good names, but facts are facts, ex cept in the Emerald, which seems bound to deserve that name. W. L. WHITTLESEY, 1901.

Tuesday evening’s meeting of the Eutaxians in Johnson Hall, was de voted pricipally to a discussion on the Modern War question. Miss Ruth Beach began the program with a talk on the war in the Balkans, in regard to the history of Turkey, the uncer tainty of the outcome and the inter est being shown in the movements by the other nations of Europe and Asia. Esther Maegly then gave a short review of the Mexican War, and the towns which have been captured. The debate. “Resolved, That war should be abolished.” was won by the affirmative. Miss Catherine Carson and Miss Beulah Stebno, who sought to prove the ineffectiveness of war; as well as its complete unnecessity and expense of carrying it on. Miss Cecil Sawyer and Miss Lillian Garner on the negative, maintained that it unit ed the people, developed men morally and physically and was necessary for the progress of civilization. Miss Nettie Drew concluded the meeting with a paper on current events. Did you see those Frnt Pennants at Cressey's stationery store. Big six day races tonight at Joy Rink. 10c admission.

No vember 22, Haul Armstrong will offer his latest success, “A Romance of the Underworld, in which this gifted playwright is starring Holbrook Blinn. It is another play with a “punch,” of the type of his former successes, “Alias Jimmy Valentine,” and “The Deep Purple,” and comes almost di rectly from a long and successful sea son in Chicago. Like the other plays mentioned, it possesses the virtue of novelty in the unfolding of a particul arly timely and interesting story, and takes the spectator into the heart of environments he knows only by hear say. One of the primary reasons for the success of the play is the air of verity given its proceedings. Paul Armstrong is a master of this valu able dramatic trick of making the un usual seem plausible and real. He takes his audience into a world where honest folk comprise a small minor ity,—lifts off the lid of the under world, so to speak, and permits them to watch crime in the hatching. And at all times the atmosphere of verac ity is so well preserved that one feels in a position of the involuntary eaves dropper. To aid in securing this ef fect in “A Romance of the Under world,” Mr. Armstrong has provided a strong company of players, all of the naturalistic school. In addition to Holbrook Blinn. the company will have among its members Ruth Ben son, Anna McDonald, Leonard Hol lister, Benjamin Piazza, W. Tammany Young, George Miller, Charles Mylott, James Marcus, and Norman Phillips. The University of Washington root ers celebrated the burning of the O. A. C. hook and O last Friday evening. These emblems were proudly dis played by the 0. A. C. contingent in Portland during their parade before the Washington game two weeks ago. After the game some wily disciples of Coach Dobie’s cheering squad stealthily removed the emblems from under the very noses of the Aggie rooters. The trophies have been pre served in state until the final cere monies last Friday. The Latest Copyrights, as well as Reprints in fiction, at Cressey’s.
