the war is over
Yesterday as the news <»f the end of
tin' great, war was flashed over the
world, Oregon rejoiced. Rejoiced that
the terrible slaughter of the past four
years wuis at an end; rejoiced that Prus
sian militarism had been definitely and
derisively banished and rejoined that the
•world might once again move smoothly
nloug I he pat hs of peace, happiness and
prosperity.
Kor the University the end of the war
means more than the resumption of nor
mal activities as we knew them before
the United States entered the struggle —
It means the opening of if new era in the
work of the University 'and in the plane
It is to occupy in the eommonwenlth of
Oregon. During the war and by reason
of its efficient war service, the Univer
sity has established itself in the life of
the state more securely than ever. The
position which Oregon won for itself is
pointedly expressed in the words of Al
ma l>. Katz, representative for the l*ia
:ifie coast of the Military Training Camps
Association, when he said, "Eugene and
the University of Oregon is tile milita
ry center of Oregon.”
To* the University, as an educational
Institution in peace times, the state will
look for accomplishments in proportion
to the record it has made in military ac
tivities, but greater than this demand
will he 'that made by those who left the
University to sacrifice their lives, If
necessary, that the principles of demo
erney for which the University stands
might he secured for those who have
suffered oppression at the hands of au
tocratic Germany. These men went
cheerfully to the front as representa'tives
of Oregon in the ranks of the fighting
men of the United States, and their alma
mater has accepted and pointed with
pride to them ns her contribution ;o the
cause of demoerm-y.
To thoM- moil llio l'niversity owes a
debt beside w 11it*lt nil she has done in
their In-half as an eduontional np -nt
seems lint trivial. To some of them she,
iiinl (In- wholo nation, will remain debt
ni's without tin- pi vlloge, or opportunity
of i-*' i my in vr tin- debt ovi-n partially, but
!o those who ri-turn she will have tin- i
spportunlfv of expressing in forms of
service rendered some part >f ln-r ap
proi-inl i -a for what tln-y have uocoin
I lislioil.
Oregon's task now is to fl( horsolf to
glw the greatest servlet to the returning
men who fought her battles by providing
vis,.!, and efficiently f r thoir training
ir- the pursuits of peace. In the past sin
ins accomplished this end In a manner
to bring the commendation of all, but the
educational demands to be made upon
the oolli r-o ■ i ,d universities of the eoiin
tr.v in the coming few years are to t-e

A new svsti m answi ring every require
ment that the period of the world’s re
fouetruction may bring, or a reeonstrue
lion of the existing systems of education
will be necessary. What changes will be
required only contact and experience
with the lapidly shifting conditions can
determine. But the University must be
observant and ready, that she may meet
intelligently and effectively every and
any demand which the future may bring.
And upon the student body also rests
« responsibility coincident with the close
of the war. Soon from the battle fronts
or Europe ar.d from the ntvr.y anti nsvry
training camps will be returning the
“Men of Oregon.” In leaving they left
the student side of the University to
those whom, by reason of circumstances,
i were unable to offer themselves to the
cause of liberty. With them they left
the traditions and customs, the spirit
arid Life at Oregon.

FOUR DAYS LEFT
With Oregon’s biggest gnme of tho
year but four days off, a game to be
played on the Corvallis grounds, it is
disheartening to witness the spirit of
Oregon.
lief ore ,ii> (). A. <gnme, Oregon men
have never shown signs of n pint by ns
they did yesterday when “Nick” farter
put it up to the Oregon men assembled
after the jntereompnny gnme whether
they would have the rooting practice
which is so badly needed if Oregon is to
back her team Saturday. Carter expect
ed that the old Oregon Spirit would
start things rolling with a strong affirm
ative.
The answer with few exceptions was a
lazy “no.”
This was |lie involuntary expression of
Oregon’s present student, body. After
“Shy" Huntington suggested that ttie yell
prndtiee should go ahead, the rooters
were quick to see that, it was necessary
to Oregon and stayed for a short prac
tice. }!ut it wan clear from the first ex
pression tlmt Oregon is not taking the
interest in Oregon football that they
should and must this year. If they had
tile Oregon fight they would not have
said “no” without even thinking.
Oregon this year lias a team which
Saturday went through their first real
heat for the University and on Camp
Lewis’ home field, carried off a decided
victory. It is a team composed of well
trained, well-coached fighters. Oregon
lias always had good teams and has been
defeated by O. A. C. only throe times
since tlie Spanish-American war; hut
during that time any Oregon team would
have been hacked by I lie Oregon Spirit.
Oregon’s team this season certainly de
serves Oregon support.
If the Oregon 1(01111 does pot get tins
support it will be hard to face O. A. C.
lute Saturday afternoon, after they have
defeated Oregon for tin' second consecu
tive time, it will lie harder to face Ore
gon’s alumni who have helped build Ore
gon’s nation-wide football reputation
when they begin coming buck next fall.
Four days is a short time to change
the present spirit of Oregon back into
the Oregon Spirit, but it must lie done
or tlie present student body deserves to
he shun out of the confidence of tlie Uni
vefsity as poor Oregon men and women.
Rooting practice will be tomorrow af
ternoon. It ought to be a real rally and
probably it will be

SI IT YET SET
; Community Around University
Must First Be Free of Flu,
Is Decision.
Assurance that the ban on the Univer
sity will be lifted by next Saturday can
not be promised at this time, according
to I>r. John I*'. Bovard, chairman of the
student health committee. According to
the ruling made by the State Board of
Health the ban shall nott be lifted on a
community unless the districts on both
sides are also free from the disease. This
will mean that though the University is
practically free from infleunza at pres
ent the ban will have to be lifted in Eu
gene before it can become effective on.
the campus.
"Even if the ban is lifted,” Dr. Bovard
said, ‘‘there is danger of spreading in
fection again, for two persons with the
disease who are walking about can start
the epidemic all over again.”
It is for that reason that Dr. Bovard
is keeping up the daily health reports,
though the University is in good shape.
The continued Co-operation of the Uni
versity students and faculty is urged by
Dr. Bovard in order that the ban may
be lifted at the earliest possible time.
Residents at Hendricks Hall
Entertained With Vaude
ville Stunts.
The Fanusi Ivhiyan girls made their
debut at Hendricks Hall last Friday
evening. Whispers lmd been floating
around the hall all morning that a
vaudeville was to lie held ; so the audi
ence arrived : dressed in every imagin
able way, ready for a frolic.
Their expectations were delightfully ;
fulfilled in tlu> singing, dancing, and dia- |
logue stunts- The performance began
with a ballet which cleverly imperson- i
ated a military drill. The next act was
some graceful aesthetic dancing by Hel
en Clark. Tli-u came some, interesting
gossip by Fatty French and Francos
Stiles, about the girls in the house.
A feature which brought the house
down was an exact reproduction of some
many funny incidents in the infirmary.
The Flueltes groaned and pulled off all
sorts of stunts, nearly driving the nurse
into nervour prostntion.
The eutetainment concluded with a
chons of popular songs, in which the
audience was asked to join. Then the
players and audience mingled in a lively
dance.
I'll" Fanusi Khivan girls partaking in
the vaudeville were Helen Clark. Evelyn
Smith, Alys Suitton. Marion Bowen,
Fatty French, Cornelia Ileess and Frsn
> s Stiles. The latest Fanusi Ivhiyan
pledge is Helen Watts.
