HOW ABOUT IT, JUNIORS?
Last spring, when the present Jun
ior class held its election for the ed
itorship knd management of this
year’s Oregana, there was said to be
a dearth of candidates. Many mem
bers of the class who were known to
be qualified, and to have aspirations
toward journalistic fame, shrunk from
these positions, for which always be
fore there had been keen competition,
as from a pestilence.
The managership of next year’s Em
erald belongs to the 1916 class by lin
eal descent. So far the present man
ager has been unable to get a single
Junior to work on his staff. Does
some member of the class expect to
obtain the office by default, without
having served his apprenticeship nnd
shown his fitness? Or are the Juniors
willing to hand down the responsibil
ities nnd honors which rightly are
theirs to the lower classes?
The last Underclass Mix was said
by the spectators to be inferior to its
predecessors. There was evident lack
of sufficient organization and prep
aration. As a result, the interest
lagged, and several of the contests
ended unsatisfactorily to both sides
and to the spectators.
Now comes the complaint that at
a meeting of the Oregana Board
called by the editor last Friday night,
a meager representation was pres
ent. As a result, he was unable to
carry out his plans for the meeting,
and must call another as soon as col
lege convenes again.
All these are instances of negli
gence and lack of enterprise ill be
coming a Junior class. We are not
questioning the loyalty of the class,
nor the ability of its individual -.tem
bers. It is much larger in ' umbers
than the present corporal's guard of
Seniors, and contains members who
have distinguished themselves in stu
dent affairs. But when it comes co
enterprises which are peculiarly its
own. such as the Oregana and the
Underclass Mix, it has thus far been
found wanting.
Mow well will the Juniors shoulder
file big burden of Junior Week-End
next May? How well will they ac
quit themselves as leaders in the af
fair^ of the campus next year?
We know that with every member
of the class working up to his capac
ity, the 1916 class can accomplish
more than any which ever went be
fore. Its sins are those of omission
rather than of commission, nnd they
are not serious. Neither is any indi
vidual much at fault. The trouble
seems to be a general apathy on the
part of the class, and a disposition
to let the world wag along as it will.
! Juniors, accept this friendly prompt
ing and show the Seniors and the un
derclassmen that you are equal to any
1 task which may be imposed on you
! in the future.
