I Are You Going to Be Safe or Be Sorry Oregon Emerald \ . The Varsity Paper 'ITERS NEHRU LYNCH Junior Tribunal Situ on Rathbun’o Case. Thoy Try Him Alout * It Anyway. ° ° i • ° . “Lynch him!” At Ithis blood-curdling cry “Scoop”> Ratbbun, prisoner at the bar before the class of 1P17, bolted for the nearest door. Echo Zahl, dragging a formidable hemp Wipe, and urged on by several other vigilantes, pursued. Only the he roic efforts of Sheriff joe Bell and the n masterly use of Judge Frank Scaiefe’s revolve; averted a tragedy. The outbreak was caused by distrust of the jury, although every effort had been made to secure a disinterested body. Several jurors had to be chosen r from aimong the spectators because of . the abs'ence of those previously impanel ' ed. Some were challenged. Like this: "Leo Furney!” called Judge Scaiefe. “I object, your honor!” cried Martin Nelson, attorney for the defense. He has not reached his legal majority.” And so it went, until twelve flawless characters, to-wit: George Colton, Mary Chambers, Maude Newberry, Jennie Huggins, Herman Gilfilen, Helen Wie gand, Helen McCornack, Marjory Wil liams, Ruth Fraley, Helen Currey, Eyla Walker and Russell Ralston, occupied the jufy-box. “First witness for the prosecution, Bernicis LuCas,” announced Robert Mc Murray, prosecuting attorney. Miss Lu cas wits sworn in. , Co-ed Refuses to Swear. “I, Bernice Lucas, do most insincere ly swear—(Well, swear,” said Mildred Brown', who was administering the oath. “Darn!” said Miss Lucas)—to tell the untruth and nothing but the untruth, so hel||> me John Adams.” Evidence came pouring in. "Thu reason only th£e girls in col lege have perfect feet is because ‘Scoop’ Rathbun has stepped on the rest while dancing,” stated Miss Lucas. "Do( you like to dance with him?" queried Martin Nelson, cross-examining for this defense. “Oh!, no, but he is craxy aWit danc ing with me and I can’t refuse him," Miss Lucas replied. “Nobody else in college dances that way. Bob McMur rny? No, lie’s a good dancer." “FIJI* Need Rugs.” Louise Allen, called to the stand, told of Ra/hbun’s attempt to steal the Kappa Kappa, Gamma rug. “Tl^e Fijis tried to buy that rug for 25 ceuts before he stole it,” she said. "They need rugs dreadfully. When he did try to make off with it, he strug gled hard, until Corn Hosford came downstairs. She seemed to have a sort of hypnotic influence over him, and he hecam'e docile at once." “Do you know whether the defendant has Hny means of support?" she was asked,' "1 saw him steal pie once," was her reply. The; evidence of Alex Bowen, witness for the defense, was somewhat discred ited by his disclosure that he had been an inmate of the state school for the feelyle^minded. Afti>r the testimony of Echo Zahl, ex pert in affairs of the heart, the attor neys addressed the jury. It was at this time that the near-lynching occurred. '{ Pleads on Bent Knees. Robert McMurray, prosecutor, plead on beaded knees, in behalf of the dear little girl whom, he said, the prisoner was Receiving. Martin Nelson, for the defence, urged that this plea was from the sentimental standpoint and tried to show ,the good character of the defend ant by reading testimonials in his favor. “Time," called Judge Scaiefe, but Nelson went on. Sheriff Bell was called 1 and forcibly led the attorney to his sent. He Continued to talk, however, until gagged and bound. Th# jury was out but a few mintues. i Prisoner Is fiulltv . "The prisoner is guilty of the charges , preferred," announced George Golton, ! forom’an. "lie attempted wilfully, ma liciously and feloniously to steal a rug from that female hoarding house known as the Kappa Kappa Gamma fraternity, lie pivots in dancing, and he has planted his phi upon Miss (.'ora llosford without having any visible means of support. "We recommend leniency, however lest fee much anfmsh be caused Miss llosford and a . ou.litional pardon if she will marry him in the presence of this court; and take him as missionary to Chinn.” COLLEGE JOURNALISM ADVANCES Student Opiuion, a stirring new week ly at the university of California, is per haps jjhe first student publication launch ed foy the distinctive purpose of raising the standards of student activities in a ■large ^Diversity.
