The co-eds, voters anil non-voters, are
off. They are trying various forms of
diversions and conversions to the two
sides of the race for president and there
is no trick, it seems, that they are not
attempting in order to bring about the
largest gains for their own candidate.

Varying from tugs-of-war to rallies and
speeches, the campaigning is going on.
Thursday night the Gamma l’his start
ed things. At the table, all was peaceful
and quiet when suddenly there boomed
out of the silence a feminine voice. The
song started by Emma Wootton was one
of the campaign songs of the Republican
party and was taken up by the rest
of the girls who were either “on the
fence” or favoring Hughes. -Miss Woot
ton entertained the table with a stump
speech putting forth all of the good
qualities of' the candidate for which she
stood, and nearly succeeded in converting
some of the members of the Wilson
squad, so strongly entrenched around the
Hughes contingent.
At the Pi Beta Phi house, members of
the Hughes contingent challenged the
members of the Wilson party to a tug
of-war in the back yard. The challenge
was read at the dinner table, but ac
cording to reports which have been vari
fied, the Wilsonian* in the house re
fused to accept “being afraid that they
would lose,” as one of the “Hughesites”
declared. According to statistics that
house is about evenly divided.
“But even with the majority on their
side,” said an authority, “they were
afraid that they would lose, and so
would not accept the tug-of-war.”
i The Chi Omegas, headed by Eulnlie
I Crosby, succeeded in confiscating the
University Wilsonians that were put
I out the other night and distributed to
i the different houses on the campus. The
[ confiscation was not all, for the papers
were torn and burned. They were tak
ing no chances with the influence that
they might have on the members of the
fair Hughes co-eds.
“The house is about evenly divided,”
said Miss Crosby,” and we run about
.10-50.” Today we have had one convert
to our side, and now from the looks of
things there will be another one, for one
of the Wilson girls is not at all sure
that, she is for Wilson, and we may get
her over."
Kappa Alpha Theta Wilsonitcs are on
the war path. They would not give out
any information as to what was coming
off, but promised that there would be
something doing before Monday.
From all that the Emerald has been
able to gather, it seems that the Hughes
members of the fair sex are doing most
of tin1 rough stuff and that the Wilson
ians are lying low. Of the other houses
on the campus who have pulled stunts,
we were unable to find any reports of
just what happened, but from what we
could find they are going right along with
the Test of the girls.

OUR OREGON SEAL.
The University of Oregon seal, in the
walk in front of Villard, was given by
the class of 1912, and as our flag is
never trampled by those who love it,
so is the custom never to step on our
seal.
