Eastern Songs Be Models.
The following are samples of songs
of some of the larger eastern
schools which have been furnished

ble models for Oregon bards who In
tend to enter in the contest for com
posing an Oregon Alma Mater song:
Fair Harvard.
Fair Harvard, thy sons to thy Jubi
lee throng,
And with blessings surrender ths sir.
By these festival rites, from th* sgs
that is past,
To the as# that la waiting before.
A relie and type of our ancestors’
worth
That has long kept her memory
warm;
First flow’r of their wilderness, star
of their Bight,
Calm rising thru change and thru
stem.
Aim* Mater—Cornell.
Far above Cayuga’s waters, with its
wares of blue,
Stands onr noble Alma Mater, glo

CHORUS—
Lift the chorus, speed It onward,
Loud her praises tell;
Hall to thee! our Alma Mater,
All hall, Cornell!
Sons of Georgetown.
Sons of Georgetown, Alma Mater,
Swift Potomac’s lovely daughter;
Ever watching by the water,
Smiles on us today;
Now her children gather round her,
So, with garlands they have crowned
her,
Rev’rent hands and fond enwound
her
With the Blue and Gray.
CHORUS—
Wave her colors ever, furl her stand
ard never;
Raise it high and proudly cry,
“We’re Georgetown’* sons forever.”
Where Potomac’s tide Is streaming
From her spires and steeples beam
ing ever.
See the grand old banner gleaming
Georgetown’s Blue and Gray.
Alma Mater—Lehigh.
Where the Lehigh’s rocky rapids
rush from out the West,
'Mid a grove of spreading chestnut
walls In Ivy dressed.
On the breast of Old South Moun
tain, reared against the sky,
Stand® our noble Alma Mater,
Stands our dear Lehigh.
Hail, Stanford, Hall.
Where the rolling foothills rise
Up t’ward mouhtains higher,
When at eve the Coast Range lies,
In the sunset fire,
Flushing deep and paling;
Here we raise our voices balling
Thee, our Alma Mater.
CHORUS—
From the foothills to the bay,
It shall ring, as we sing,
It shall ring and flot away;
Hail, Stanford, hail!
Hail, Stanford, hail!

Oregon Speakers, However, Are
Beginning Active Work on
the General Question of a Na
tional Budget System.
The final wording of the Washing
:on-Stanford-Oregon debate question
das not yet been definitely decided
upon. Several weeks ago the three
Universities agreed upon the general
question of “Executive Responsibil
ity for the National Budget” and in
accordance with the terms of the con
tract. between them each submitted
a proposition upon this general sub
ject. Oregon subm1tted the follow
ing proposition: Resolved, that our
executive department should be
made responsible for a National Bud
get.
A few days ago Graduate Manager
Walker received a letter from the
Secretary of the League, stating
“that Stanford has agreed to Ore
gon’s question;” and stating further
“that he would write to Washinton
asking them to concur and in the ab
sence of an objection Oregon’s ques
tion would be chosen. But in case
Washington objects, a vote would
have to be taken, each University ex
pressing their first and second choice.
No definite arrangements have yet
been made in regard to the debate
with O. A. C- other than that the
same question used for the intercol
legiate contest will be the one used
in this contest. In a short time the
date, size of teams, number of teams
and other details will be arranged.
Probably each school will have both
an affirmative and negative team and
two debates will be held the same
night between the teams of each
school, one at Corvallis and the other
here at Eugene.
Those in charge state that they
think “Oregon is up against a hard
proposition this year. Our teams
will he made up of all new men, ex
cepting Dal King. Oregon has been
able to carry off the honors in past
years, but this year, with teams com
posed largely of men inexperienced
at college debating, it seems doubt
ful whether we can repeat the per
formance.”
'Curtis Guild, formerly Governor of
Massachusetts and ambassador to
Russia, advocates the establishment
of a course in diplomacy in all of the
American universities.
