Are we, who are still on the campus going to do our best to keep them smiling over there? A real chance to do this and to help do our port is coming tomorrow and lo'xt week while the War Work Cam paign is on. Remember that every dol lar given for this war work will help •olve the big problem of relieving the strain of camp routine for our brothers over there and allow them to relax from the rigors of military routine and disci pline. The largest possible use will be made of the dollars we give into the charge of the six organizations associated in the drive. They are able to get one hundred per cent efficiency out of every dollar because they are on the ground, their organization is complete, and they operate in every sector. Ut us figure close when wo see how nmeli we can give and send over a few more motion picture shows for the boys, gin1 them places to write letters, library facilities, music and chocolate. . Now that the armistice has been sign ed, the hoys will soon he mobilizing In concentration camps to wait their turns to come home and since the wait is bound to be long In some cases every thing possible should bo provided In the way of entertainment for them. No make that war work drive sub scription just as large as possible! Conch "Shy" Huntington yesterday caught a fre-hmnu looking over n pile of football cepiimpent with the view of going out for football - and with a cigarette In his mouth. Huntington, himself an old Oregon man, had never seen a like occurence and that fresluuau got no suit. Iu this notion Huntington not only showed a sain that he was fired with the. Oregon Snirit and a low for Oregon traditions but he called to the attention of the student body that, at least in re apeet to the tradition of not smoking on the campus, Oris on in. n were lieeouiinr la' Smoking in the gymnasium was permitted while the building wa- used for S- A. T. barracks but with the men moved out, students hare been slow to take tip the no s coking rule. After mess at !• rielidl.N Hail students have been growing mere and mote careless about walking out ,,f the building and up on the eainput while ',111! smoking. J'lie tradition that no student shall smoke on the campus, extending from Kincaid at vet to University street and from Eleventh street to the North snt,» j of Thirteenth street, is one of the most valuable of Oregon traditions and among the first- The regard of Old Oregon men for Oregon traditions is seen in “Shy” Huntington and other alumni now on the campus. In time they will '■ome to mean as much to all the Oregon students now here If the war does end at once, men of the iS. A. T. C. claim it will be because Colonel Leader appeared in civilian clothes yesterday. "NO SMOKING’ EMPHASIZED Student Council Acts Upon Hearing Campus Tradition Is Disregarded. The student council last night went on record as favoring a more strict enforce ment and observunee of the Oregon tra dition in regurd to the prohibition of smoking on the campus. Ac.ion was tak en toward a more' thorough campaign of education among the freshmen following the relnting of the story of Coach “Shy” Huntington refusing to issue a football suit to a freshman because he was smok ing a cigarette in the gymnasium- -in op position to the smoking tradition—while I picking out his equipment. By the Oregon tradition established ■ early in the University’s history smok ing is not permitted on that part of the campus included between Kincaid and University streets and between Eleventh street and the north side of Thirteenth street. Complaint was made before the coun cil that men were becoming lax in regard t othe tradition in walking from mess at Friendly hall out onto the campus. The men have been slow, also, in taking up the tradition within the gymnasium since the building has been vacated as bar racks, it was reported to the council.
