UI* TO THE STUDENTS.
The results brought about In the
Increased registration following the
publishing of student resolutions In
the newspapers throughout the state,
shows undeniably the Influence which
the students of the University can
exercise when they so deBlre. In al
most every town where a copy of the
"district resolution" appeared in the
local paper, an immediate gain wus
noticed the next day In the number
of voters who realized the necessity
of taking the step required as a pre
liminary to fhe final use of the bal
lot.
In the last three or four yeurB the
cry has often been raised that the
old Oregon spirit Is dying out, that
the students no longer take u vital,
active Interest In the things pertain
ing to student body affairs and to
the University. This spirit has not
been dead but has only been lying
dormant, waiting only for the stim
ulus of such a crisis as that which
at present faces the University to
arouse It to Its fullest fighting vigor.
The right start has been made In
the letter writing campaign recently
Inaugurated, but with this finished
It Is by uo means to be thought that
the work of the students Is accom
plished. Registration may be effect
ed any time up to the nineteenth and
during the intervening ten days, a
vnst amount of work may still be ac
complished. Then on November 4,
let every student vote, and not con
tent merely with this, see to It that
his or her friends and acquaintances
avail themselves of their right to the
franchise.
The fate or success of the appro
priation rests first with the voters
scattered over the state, but In »
<*r-ur<ely less degree It rests with th'
Oregon students.
A NKW OREGON HONG.
The agitation for another Oregon
song in a move tu the right direction.
With aome thirty-seven years behind
It the University has been slngunlrly
deficient In bringing these manifes
tations of true college feeling.
In other colleges this has not been
neglected, but has been made a mat
ter of prime Importance, and as a
result songs of real merit have been
written, which haw lived for years
and will continue to live In the minds
of graduates of these Institutions, as
a big factor In the things which
make college worth while.
This is not to say that the qual
ity of Oregon songs Is deficient. The
exact reverse Is the case But the
quantity is lucking and there shou d
be enough talent among the students
at Oregon to fill this need.

NEED OF MEMBERS
Possible Tour Through Southern
Oregon Planned for
Spring

How many of the students are go
ing to try out for the Dramatic CUb

query that Is troubling the compla
cent nuture of Manager Walter Dlntm
these days. He Is here, there, and
everywhere, trying to arouse aspir
ants for dramatic honors. His spir
ited solicitation, however, is begin
ning to bear fruit, for a number have
asserted their willingness to be on
deck at the prescribed date.
“It you have ever spoken a 'piece'
In your young life or delivered any
klud of a speech," says Dlmrn, “it Is
your duty to appear at the tryout.
The selections which are to be given
are posted in the Library and VUlard
Hall, and the librarian Is only too
willing to give you the books con
taining them."
The Dramatic club Is planning an
active year. Skits and two dramas
are to be presented and a possible
tour through Southern Oregon In the
spring Is being planned.
Don't forget the date and the place.
Therefore, If you want your name
recorded on the hall of fame, as a
stellar attraction, grasp this oppor
tunity.

FOUR DEBATES WILL -
BE HELD TfilS YEAR
Prospects for Winning Team
Dubious With Only One
Veteran on Hand
With only one .member of last
year’s debate team, Dal King, left
for the 1913 season, Coach Bert Pres
cott is facing the problem of build
ing up a debating team which will be
able to sustain the recojd made by
last year’s talkers. Four big debates
are scheduled, one with Washington,
one with Stanford, and two with O.
A. C.
As to prospects for the develop
ment of this team, Mr. Prescott only
looks sad and refuses to make any
statement except that he considers
that it should not be difficult to
draw conclusions as to the condition
of debating when it is learned that of
the two old men back in school, one,
Vernon Motschenbacher, has an
nounced that because of his other
work he will be unaoie to take part
in forensic events.
Subject Still Unchosen.
Oregon’s selection for the general
subject, “The Cabinet responsibility
for the National Budget,” has already
been sent to the secretary of the Tri
state league at Stanford. In about
a week’s time, Mr. Prescott expects
to be notified of the subject turned
in by Washington and Stanford. The
representatives of the interested col
leges will then name their first, sec
ond and third choices.
The subject finally selected
through this means will be subjected
to the various colleges, and from it a I
specific question will be chosen in the
same manner as that followed in
picking the general subject.
Mr. Prescott announces that try
outs for the squad from which the de
bating teams will eventually be pick
ed, will begin about two weeks after
the general subject has been settled
upon.
