THE OREGON EMERALD as the official organ of the
Associated Student Body of the University of Oregon, aims to
serve the student body politic in the following way: to diffuse cor
rect and authentic news; to protect and conserve the highest ideals
of the University; to consistently avoid all secret affiliations and
alliances; to play the game squarely with no favoritism; to be op
timistic and courageous in fulfilling its functions; to comment on,
and receive comment on the problems concerning the University
and its welfare; to pursue a constructive editorial policy zvhich nec
essarily implies a destructive policy; in short, to pursue militantly
a policy of proper publicity in regard to all problems that confront
the Student Body—all of this, based on the truism that a demo
cracy can be effective and efficient only so long as it maintains a
free and militant press.
Long May She Wave!
AUTHENTIC INFORMATION has reached our ears to the
effect that “Bill” Hayward, the father of Oregon’s athletic prowess
for thirteen years, may not be with us long unless something is done
to show that the University appreciates him. Already—from the in
formation we have at hand—he has refused an offer much more lib
eral financially than is his present reward at Oregon. He refused
the offer for the love that he holds for Oregon. But it also is rumor
ed that “Bill” is open to an offer other than the one he has just re
ceived.
Hayward is recognized as one of the greatest coaches in the
country. Is Oregon backward in recognizing that she cannot afford
to lose so valuable a man? The man who was chosen as the official
trainer for the world’s games at Stockton is indeed worth a premium
to Oregon. The man who put a big splotch of lemon-yellow on the
athletic map of the United States is a man to be appreciated. And
“Bill” is appreciated here at Oregon—only he doesn’t recognize it.
Minor rumors may have sprung up but they are merely rumors.
For thirteen years Hayword has stuck to the ship although he1
has had many an offer that would have won another man away from
Oregon. Oregon needs Hayward. Here’s to “Bill” Hayward! He’s
for Oregon, first, last, and all the time; and Oregon’s for him! Long
may she wave!

To the Editor:
It was called to my attention yester
day afternoon that we were about to
Ipse one of the greatest men on the fac
ulty.
This man is “Bill” Hayward.
We know what “Bill” means to the
University. This is shown by his past
records. It is a well-known fact that
Oregon was placed on the map athletic
ally by the work of Hayward.
“Bill’ has won the admiration of all
who have come in contact with him. He
has converted physical wrecks into great
track men for the past thirteen years.
Now our rival, O. A. (\, is after one
of the best men on the faculty. They
have offered him a considerable increase
over his present salary, which is meagre
enough. He refused the offer only for
hit) deep-seated love for Oregon,_ her
alumni and students.
This shows the calibre of the man. who
for years has been director of athletics
at Oregon. 0 .
Along with this is the reegnt rumor!
that a successor would be chosen to
take Bill's place as head of athletics.
Hasn't "Bill” done his share? Does
not his brilliant record speak more than
words? Why remove a man who has j
been successful beyond all expectation?
Is this the popular method of reward
ing merit and ability ?
It is high time the students take a
stand. We owe "Bill” Hayward a great
debt and everyone should stand behind
the man who stands for clean, success- j
ful sports for Oregon.
BILL III'BOARD,
DEPARTMENT HUGE
OPPOSED BT ALUMNI
Resolution Adopted at Joint
Meeting of Alumnae and
Alumni Association of “U.”
The Lane Comity Alumlli association
of the University of Oregon. Jast night
officially opposed the transfer of any
departments of the University to Port
land. The resolution as adopted follows:
“Whereas, a movement was begun re
cently to transfer the departments of
law, architecture, commerce, journalism
and music from the University at Eu
gene, to Portland, and
“Whereas, it is the sentiment of this
organization that it would be a serious
mistake, and an illogical move, to scat
ter these departments away from the
University itself. Be it therefore
“Resolved, That the aiumnae and
alumni of the University residing in Lane
county, be and are, opposed to such
movement; arid be it further
Resolved, That a copy of this resolu
tion be sent to the head of each depart
ment involved, and to the alumni asso
ciations in this state.”
Plans for alumni day at the Univer
sity, Saturday, June 3, were discussed. A
committee of five will have charge of all
activities of Lane county alumni on that
day.
BASKETBALL
Students Sign Petitions for Reinstate
ment in Large Numbers. Alumni
Favorable.
The petitions for the reinstatement of
intercollegiate basketball circulated
among the various fraternities has in
most every case been signed by all mem
bers of the’ organizations, according to
Harry Kuck, who has charge of taem.
Other petitions will soo be put out
among studenjts not in the fraternities.
The general atmosphere on the camous
would indicate ithat basketball should be
reinstated.
Merlin Batley .says, “Without doubt,
the decline in college spirit thro lgh the
winter months has betn due to the loss
of the intercoil igiate basketball games.
I feel that Oregon bis lost material; in
prestige throughout the state and north
west, particularly among those high
school students who have been planning
on coming here. No great benefit to the
students has been derived from the ex
periment that ][ can sec nnd I believe
that genuine hjtrm nas resulted in sev
eral cases. 1 sinceiviv hope that D isket
nall will be reinstated next fall.
Harry Kuck. “The student sentiment
has shown itself all through the year to
be in favor of maintaining intercollegiate
basketball. We1 want it; let’s get it,'’
Johnny Beckett: ‘Why all this talk?
Let’s have Rome action.”
Glen Wheeler : “Basketball could not
be reinstated at a better time. 'I believe
that we have good possibilities of a
championship team next year. Intra
mural basketbalf failed, and besides that,
we all want the intercollegiate game.”
Virginia Petersen: “I enjoyed the
intramural games, but I don’t believe
that they take the place of intercollegi
ate basketball.”
Bob Earl: “'the long period between
football and baseball seasons has caused
quite a decline in the spirit of the
student body, ll believe there should be
immediate action taken toward the re
instatement of basketball.”
Claud Hampton: “Intercollegiate bas
ketball is necessary to keep students uni
fied and furnish an outlet for Oregon
spirit. Furthermore, intramural busket
ball failed to arouse the expected interest.
The interest in jarsity basketball is due
to its intercollegiate phase, and fails
when sport is restricted to student or
ganizations.” |
Karl Beeke: “We want basketball.
That’s reason enough why the faculty
should reinstate lit.”
Chet Fee: "Intramural basketball has
shown that it could not hold the students’
interest in the sport. It was a trial and
a failure, so there is no reason why the J
intercollegate sptprt should not be rein-1
stated." :
