VERILY, THERE lias been a lull in the over-organization gos sip, but the movement is still moving and the committee to all intents and purposes is working on a constructive line of legislation. From reports that can be obtained from the over-organization ists there is only ope thing that interferes with the campaign, and . that is over-organization. It really is a grind for the average student to live on the measly allowances of twenty-four hours a day. And j since the sun has been pretty punctual in the past there is no hope ! of increasing the allowance to thirty-six per day or thereabouts. What the committee intends to do is multum in parvo. At first a rumor got out that the committee was preparing a black-list of or ganizations which were to be guillotined. The committee says that ! it does not want to have a French revolution in the student body i politic. The committee will have a report with recommendations ready for the next meeting of the Strident Council next Wednesday. Adding A Brick to the Woman’s Building. DRAMA LOVERS, on and off the campus, will have the op portunity of seeing the first public production by the University Players, an organization of campus thespians which has been in ex istence for the past year. The organization has planned to appear at least three times during its short existence but postponement on ac count of failure to get satisfactory dates has prevented the earlier entrance, Ultra-highbrowism is strictly taboo in the selection of the dedi catory play. Winchell Smith's successful comedy, "The Fortune Hunter,” is a popular play and has probably attained to the most laughter-provoking height of any American play. The play deals with a practical method of getting rich and, incidentally married on the side. The hero, lacking the get-rich-quick versatility of some his more fortunate friends, escapes from bumdom by carrying the theory out to its illogical and comical conclusion. Aside from the play—its merits, and the support it needs— every student, pigging and non-pigging—should buy a ticket or two, and attend, if possible; for as the press agents puts it, "Every ticket bought and paid for will buy a brick or two for the .Women’s build fng/* Scholarship Counts After All. TILE WORLD is beginning to recognize the value of the scholar In all lines, despite stories to the contrary. The traditional chestnut disseminated bv the non-studious college man. who goes around to his classes whenever convenient bearing a chip on his shoulder with the dare-devil insignia "Educate me if you can.” springs the same old line of how many P. B. K. pins find their way into hock shops. Statistics disprove this fallacy. The student who led his class but contented himself with driving a butcher wagon after he had graduated sutnrna aim laikir is a huge fiction. A Harvard alumnus exploded the invention by a long search through the University records and "Who’s Who”. Of the eight or nine thousand grad uates between 1851 and 1900 who had a chance to get into “Who’s Who”, 1,305 actually did receive mention. And of those receiving mention 22 were among the first thirty in scholarship; of men among t^ie first ten in their classes, 41.5 per cent are mentioned; and of those who took their degrees sutnma cum Imde, 4- 5 P*r cent. After all there is hope for the student who really studies. Class room at tainments are after all a fair itujex of after-collage accomplishments.

' SEEK "PREP SCHOOL STARS Kansas^ University athletic authorities have devised a system of getting informa tion regarding high school stars in the state.

"The best amateur acting ever seen in Salem, and the largest and most representative audience assembled in the Grand operu house for many sea sons, made last night's initial pro duction of ‘The Fortune Hunter’ doubly rtotahle. The statement that last evening's offering was the best of it’s kind ever seen in Salem is merely a! rehearsal of the verdict of the audience,”—Lee Hendricks, '15, in the Daily Oregon Statesman..—Adv.
