TAKING THE PLEDGE.
Standing in assembly one year
ago, the students of Oregon swore
to keep the pledge submitted by
Governor West to do all in their
power to discharge their obligations
to the state for the advantages of
fered them in the way of higher edu
cation and consequent possibilities
opened up to them for advancement
in after life. Tomorrow at ten
o’clock those who took this oath last
fall will renew their acknowledge
ment of the debt incurred by them,
and the new students in the Univer
sity will be given their first chance
to subscribe to the provisions of the
pledge.
In the brief space of a twelve
month the students’ pledge has be
come one of the moat Important tra
ditions In college life. Although It
may be aafely aaaumed that previous
to the Introduction of the cuatom,
a large majority of those attending
claaaea at the state University were
fully cognizant of the debt placed
upon them by the taxpayers of the
state In making possible the exist
ence of an institution of higher
learning. It Is no less certain that
nothing could be more effective in
fixing this obligation in the minds
of the undergraduates than a verbal
acknowledgement.
Hut it must not stop with this.
The students of the University are
fitted while here, to become leaders
In the commonwealth in after years.
The training they have received and
are receiving fits them to be fore
most In movements for the practical
betterment of conditions in Oregon.
A new state with vaBt resources,
as yet hardly touched, offers Infinite
possibilities. Within the next fifty
yearB, Oregon may be made or
marred. No greater opportunity
could be given, than is offered to the
men and women of the University
to show that the confidence placed
In them has not been misplaced and
that the benefits heaped upon thorn
by the people of Oregon have not
been wasted. The students must not
and will not fall to recognize thlB.

FLOYD ROSS CALLED HOME
BY DEATH OF MOTHER
Will Not Return to College This
Semester. Out of
Football
Floyd Ross, ’17, who would prob
ably have been the next man placed
on the football training table, was
suddenly called to his home in We
natchee, Wash., by the death of his
mother, from heart failure.
A telegram Sunday informed him
that she was near death, and another
Monday brought the news of her
death Sunday night. She had suf
fered from heart trouble for several
years, but had not been in a serious
condition prior to the last attack
during the past week.
When he left Ross said he did not
expect to return to college before
the beginning of the second semes
ter. He has been making his own
way while in college, almost entire
ly; and besides has been out for
football practice every night since
the season began. During the last
week he has been making an espe
cially good showing against the Var
sity, as a member of the second team
and has been considered by many as
likely timber for the first team. He
was a star player for Eugene high
school last year, and for Wenatchee
High previous to that. His sudden
departure will put an end to football
efforts for the present school year.
His brother, Otto Ross, a fresh
man ut the University during the
second semester of last year, is this
year enrolled in Washington State
College, at Pullman. He is tuklng
a three-year course in Horticulture.
