particular purpose
a policy of trying
The Campus Has The Biig.
PROM ALL indications the campus is talking and thinking*
about over-organization. Since the Student Council opened the ques
tion it has received promises of aid and cooperation from all quar
ters. Never did the council expect such a unanjmous reflection of
favorable opinion. [Unbelievable as it may seem, members of one or
two organizations have stated personally that the!y held membership
affiliations with two organizations on the campus which were para
sitic in nature. Still more, one of these individuals said that he was
willing to go before one of Lhc afm-psaid organizations and propose
re-organization or disorganization.
1 While the committee on over-organization feels that there are
probably some few organizations that have no
of general welfare to the campus, it has not adoptc
to |use arbitrary force. If certain societies of their own free action
decide that consolidation, re-organization or disbanding is advisable
they are free to do either.
I The fundamental aim of the committee is to einact legislation for
the fj'.rtc, empowering the Student Council to demand that individ
uals anticipating organization in the future first submit to the* Stu
dent Council, through a representative, a petition showing that such
a s«?.cih'y ia j,notified and is not duplicatory. If the petition is grant
ed, the Council, through a standing committee, hvill assign to the
society an appropriate official date of meeting, so;as to prevent such
conlflicts that at present prevail to the detriment ofj other student act
ivities. Organizations receiving the sanction of the Student Council
shall be called “recognized”, and shall have the following privileges:
(1) appearance in student organization lists whenever published;
(2) 1 a meeting place on the campus; (3) publicity,through the “Em
erald”, “Oregana” and any other official publications that the Uni
versity shall see fit to organize in the future; (4) the use of the inrt:c
of the University in any attempt to secure patronage or prestige; and
(5)' the use of the bulletin boards. 1
1 If on the other hand an organization persists ip existing without
enied them, but in
ganization is of a
official sanction, these privileges will not only be d
the case that the Student Council feels that the on
nature that would interfere materially with the student activities or
throw tlr n into wrong channels, a direct boycot could be launched.
I T his plan sounds radical, but it is highly necessary. The general
auk nomv of the college is at stake if conditions are allowed to go on
unheeded. Never has the University faced such a period of depres
sion1 in all legitimate pursuits. Never has there been such a laxity in
fulfilment of duty by student representatives. Ne'
such a period of depression on the part of establis
n ost of which fulfill vital needs.
1 It is time that students were throwing aside petty considerations
and I were entering into the so-called, but little in evidence “Oregon
er has there been
led organizations,
Spirit.” Truly the surrender of absolute freedorp of organization
is a great sacrifice—some would and probably do call it the surrender
of some inalienable right but the sacrifice is necessary to restore the
campus to a healthy and strong condition.

Winter is over and the Emerald is
full of poetry. Poetry, (Muse, strike me
not) from the facile pens of ‘Jawn’ Gil
bert, the sweet cannery singer; Milton
Stoddard, the bare-kneed lover; E. J.
Zabl, the full-throated Valkyrie; and
last but not least we suspect A. Epping,
the voice of protest. Poetry that is both
bad and—worse, is superabundant. Gath
er not that we protest or criticize (Cae
sar was ambitious) but now we feel that
we can go ahead with a clear conscience.
Washington dealt us foul blow. Our
Sweet Cannery Singer replied daintily.
The Washington Ed. claimed his poetry
too bum to print in his w—(we were
tempted to epithet but we refrained)
sheet. Here we will show him that Ore
gon has some one who can do worse.
(You can sing it to “A Little Bit of
Heaven,” etc., if you have the voice).
HOW WASHINGTON WINS A GAME.
Sure I now will tell the story how Wash
ington wins a game.
I do not like to tell it, but I’m going to
Just the same.
Don’t hesitate to tell them if any you
should see,
For, if any one is worried, why sure it
won’t be we.
CHORUS
Sure a lean and lanky Scotsman struck
old Washington one day,
And he taught the ‘simps’ that go there
the football game to play.
Then they made a nice agreement, to
play with Oregon,
But when it came, to fix a date their
courage sure did run.
they signed up with a high school
and a crippled college too,
And when they won the games aVlast,
they raised a hulla-baloo.
Sure they’ve got a streak right down
their back, ’tis known by every one,
So here’s to the institution that’s known
as Washington.

on the same subject but professional
jealousy makes us hold back its publica

We are all mortal, even the factulty.
We believe that suitable epitaphs should
be prepared in advance. Here’s a start.
