WESTERFIELD Manager’s and Editor’s Phone—S41. Oregon at Home to Its Alumni. ALMA MATER will be on the receiving line this week-end for her hundreds of loyal sons and daughters, and she is beckon ing for all to come to this, the greatest reunion that Oregon has ever held. Never in the history of the University have preparations so elaborate been made for a Home-Coming Day And as a result Oregon expects a record-breaking attendance. Every alumni can be taken care of here. Those in charge of the celebration have adopted as their pol icy to instill into the older sons and daughters of Oregon the same old spirit which they helped create and handed down to the pres ent generation. Alumni and students will mingle with a common bond of sympathy—that of allegiance to Oregon. The citizens of Eugene, ardent for the welfare of Oregon, have joined in the pageant, and will extend a welcome to all vis itors. The streets will be decorated in lemon-yellow and will teem with University life in the form of pajamereeno-pee-rades, pep fests, yelling and drills. Oregon intends to give its visitors a dem onstration of the Oregon Spirit that has accomplished so much and is ever ready to strive for more. Luncheons, receptions and dances have been arranged for the visiting alumni. And amid all of the celebration there will be the oldtime galantry. Handsome fussers and beautiful fussees will great the visitors. It will be a festival that will make history for the University. The climax of the pageant will be the game against O. A. C.— Oregon's enemy of old. The team is primed to do its part and the rest can only be done by rooting from students and alumni. In Portland there has been organized rooters’ practice for the game. What Oregon needs is a large delegation of her old students. Surely every ex-Oregon student can tear himself away from the worries that are and return for at least one day to the old campus and Alma Mater Seldom does the Emerald essay to mention within the editor ial columns student projects of individual concern and conducted for individual gain, but the Oregon student who is planning to im prove the old Millrace and to make it a student recreation resort deserves mention and patronage. The new management of the Raceway intends to cater to a college clientele, and to improve the race for college exponents of canoe and paddle. In addition work is promised to students who are under pressure of earning their ways through school. Surely such a project merits investigation and encouragement. * - * I CAMPUS NOTES ★-- ★ Alpha Tau Omega entertained with a formal dance at the chapter house Saturday evening.
