The field was rotten; ditto the weather. The band— the newly uniformed musicians—was the best ever (Perfect by the way). The spirit; it bubbled and gurgled, and the pent uj) tension of the tie-game shot sky ward with the final crack of the pistol, and Monday the campus paths were trod by "peepless” wanderers. But the hardest game is coming Satur day. Altogether now in a rejuvenation for that Washington Stnte College con test in Portland! AS TO THE ATHLETIC FIELD. No longer can the University stuge campus games of such big league calibre as the Saturday affair on such a woeful field and cpmo out with a fat pocket book. It was a crime to match such two tennis as the Varsity and the Uni versity of Washington and then demand that they play on such a field as Kincaid was Saturday. With mud inches deep and clinging to the cleats like lead, the speed of the players was slackened, footing made insecure, passing of the ball impossible nud good playing but a dream of the fancy. That is as the players were concerned. As to the seating facilities, they too were wholly inadequate to the needs. A year ago itO(K) people poured into Eugene to witness that famous 0-0 game between Oregon Agricultural college and the Uni versity; the first annual homecoming day. Nine thousand spectators sat in the rain and dyed their skins the colors of their clothes. Nine thousand angry fans left the field vowing never again! And sure enough this homecoming saw a much scantier crowd on hand than there was lust year. Unless there is a new field provided— a field that can be soaked from morn till night and then be ready for playing —and seating facilities the full length of the lines and sheltered from the rains the management had better stage no big games for Eugene next year. For if such i contests are scheduled with the present conditions unchanged the crowd next year will be smaller than the one this year and ere long that old nursery rhyme of "nobody came but a big fat darky" will be applicable. For some time now the Board of Regents have promised changes. A new field was planned. But they have practiced diligently on hesitation and sidestepping and to date the same antiquated, ante dated field equipment is the only excuse for nothing better. It is high time the Associated Students of the University of Oregon stepped in and did something, j NOW IS THE TIME. On Saturday. November 11, the foot ball team will meet the eleven from the University of Oregon in the hardest game of the year. On the remits of this con test will depend Washington State’s chance of meeting Pennsylvania on New Year’s day. The game will be played on foreign soil, at Portland, the hotbed ©f Oregon alumni. A peppy bunch of | rooters on the side lines would increase W. S. C.’s chances 100 per cent. Sev enty-five men at the Montana game made unite noise than the whole Montana rooter section. No one will deny that this encouragement helped. There have been timid suggestions around the cam pus that the Washington State band should go to the Oregon game. Further, it is a certainty that some of the root ers that went to Missoula will take the trip. Though we haven't the most profuie praise for Gilmore idobie, yet we do ad mire his judgment in invariably arrang ing for the accompaniment of his team by big rooting delegations. Washington State has a winning team—a better team than Dobie has. But it needs and de serves all the assistance the student body can give. The opportunity should be grasped for showing W. S. ('. pep and appreciation of the best team in the west by arranging for a big rooter delegation, including the band, on the trip to Portland.—Wash ington State College Evergreen. 1. M. GETS 255 JOBS Employment Department Se cures Positions for Students Boys Are Given Many Kinds of Work; One Even Did Sewing. The University Y. M. C. A. employ ment department has secured 255 jobs for students since September 12. These jobs will net the students working by the end of the year about $2,405.05. Some of the jobs have been only tem porary but a great many of them have been permanent, according to Secretary J. I>. Foster of the Y. M. C. A. The kind of work provided includes almost everything in the lino of odd jobs. Putting in wood gave 55 men an opportunity to earn money toward their expenses. One can served punch, an other sewed, while others labored with pick and shovel. Other kinds of work secured through the department were splitting wood, keeping books, stenography, washing windows, cleaning houses, unloading cars, taking tickets, waxing floors, soliciting advertising, pitching hay, washing dishes, picking fruit, carpentering, distributing window cards, delivering parcels, wash ing autos, taking care of a garde- and waiting on tables. ” "No fee is charged for getting the men for the jobs," said Secretary Fos ter, "the students need the work and the V. M. C. A. is here to help the students.” l.ast year during the entire year 2NS positions were secured through the Y. M. l\ A„ and already 255 jobs have been filled by students through the Y. M. C. A. Cards advertising the employment agency are being distributed around the city and efforts are being made by the association to furnish all the students who want work with the necessary jobs. Nick Jaureguy is chairman of the em ployment department. MISS HAMILTON 15.

F. G. Thacher. They are alive with the breath of Oregon spirit. “Hello Lane,” a waltz song, inspired by our tradition of “hello lane,” will make its debut with the women’s glee club some time soon. “Let’s go, boys, let’s go” will do the heart of the rooter good. It glows with enthusiasm. It radiates pep. "I haven’t heard the music yet, but the words are absolutely great,” says Dean Lyman. “We are making every effort to get them in shape so we can present them to the students as quickly as pos sible.” “Hello Lane.” If you happen to pass as you’re going to class At Deady or old Villard, He sure that you greet each student you meet In the manner they all regard. CHORUS. Hello, Hello, The lads and the lasses are going to classes. Hello, Hello, They’re passing on “Hello Lane.” Hello, Hello, Whether in sunshine or rain, It’s the one friendly greeting they use as they’re meeting. Hello, Hello. Don’t ask "How are. you?” or “How do you do?” Or just nod your head and smile; That isn’t the way they do, but they say “Hello” in the good old style. There’s a comradeship in it you feel in a minute. It brightens each hour of the day. He you senior or soph, or even a prof., You cheer up and smile when they say: When you’re an old “grad” and your heart’s kind o’ sad With the thots of the days that were dear, Your eyes fill with tears as you turn back the years, And you’d give half your life just to hear, Let’s Go, Boys, Let’s Go. Oregon’s a grand old state as everybody knows. She has a University where everybody goes. And down there they play football; play a game that’s right, With courage and with skill, boys, and always “ ’at old fight.” CHORUS. So here's a song for the team, boys, that’s out there on the field. Fighting hard to win that game—we know they’ll never yield. We’re with you heart and soul, boys, for the love of U. of O. So all together—ready now—“let's go, boys, let’s go.” The green and yellow that you wear are colors we uphold. Today they're floating high and free; they'll triumph ns of old. Hut, win or lose, we’re loyal to the team that wears the “O.” There’s nothing that can stop them, when the eaptaiu says: “Let’s go.” FACULTY BULLETIN * *-------■* Tuesday, Nov. 7, election day.
