C. it must bo said tliut the Oregon victory brings to Oregon more benefits than, perhaps, any other one event in University lifo this year. And the credit goes to “Shy” Hunting ton, “Bill” JInyward and the tenm. Before the game Saturday there was n poor spirit on the. campus. Everyone knew it, but it seemed that the work of old men on (lie campus could do nothing to bring to life the old Oregon Spirit. The freshmen knew the spirit on the campus was not what they hud heard about before entering the University lint, apparently, felt it useless for them, in the light of circumstances, to do any thing. Tilings wore “different ” So wlien 800 Oregon rooters made the trip to O. A. 0. to see Saturday’s game on an Oregon spoeial, had a chance t" support their team on the enemy’s field and saw the Oregon fight triumphant, it was really a big service. And Oregon will not forget that (lie credit for this Service in unifying the students of the University and making them proud of Oregon and enpnhlo of understanding the Oregon Spirit, is due to the Oregon eleven of 11)18 and Hint it was their ef forts, made in the face of (lie most dis couraging conditions an Oregon team ever lias had to face, that made the life of tlie Oregon Spirit certain until the University is again on its old basis with tile old men returned to the campus. It's refreshing, this new feeling on the campus. A GREAT MAN. The college world should find time for Rome notice of the passing of Andrew ] Mekson Whit-, the first President of Cornell 1’nivetsity, even in a month | marked by the signing of the armistice hy Oermauy. I>r. White was President I t'1’ Cornell I'nlvcrsity during the first nineteen yens of it's existence though | on leave of absence port of that time as 1' S. minister to Russia and as minis- 1 ter to Germany Hut he had a free 1 hand given him by Kara Cornell in j framing the educational policy of Cor nell Tulveraity. an opportunity almost unique. Bud he proved himself equal to the conception of n new type , f Culver Slt\, adapted to the new age, and with * It s faec to the future ; non sectarian, scientific, giving scope and honor to the new education*] discipline*, such as engineering and agriculture, and so he earned his place, as sharing with e» presldent KUof of Harvard rhe chief honors in the transform*t ,>n of the old , AiUfltouj siliauj Ooilege intu lb» grr*I j and many-sided American University of today. Dr. White occupied an honorable place in the diplomatic history of the United States end in the roll of our historical scholars, but his special distinction is in the field of university education where he separates himself from the many col lope presidents who have been able ad ministrators. President White was something more—be was a creative mind, who originated a new education. The Oregon Spirit beat O. A. C- As has been the case in game after game won by Oregon in the past, victory came in the last half. It was the old Oregon fight thut is capable of tV strongest support to the team when Oregon is behind- And as in die. past this Ore gon fight was bolstered up for that last half by a factor too often overlooked— "Bill” Hayward, Oregon’s veteran train er, who makes for the perfect physical condition of Oregon men to the end that they are comparatively of much greater strength in the last part of the game. Yes, tilings are. different at Oregon this year, but after the Oregon fight displayed Saturday b.y both the team and the 800 rooters, itr is almost absurd to appeal for a good turn-out to give the team a send-off when they leave for Cal ifornia. Nothing can stop them — and it will take a lot to stop "Shy” and Bill and the hoy's who go to Berke ley. Oregon foothill! history repented it self. The Aggies wore benten. Mot au Oregon ninn was forced to quit the game because of poor condition- The Oregon team showed they lmd given u little previous thought toward uphold ing the University’s reputation; just as Oregon teams in the past. Only nine more yenrs, Aggies. Convalesces in Hospital; Then Meets U. of 0. Men on Visit to Paris. Kent Wilson, cx-TS, now with the -1th French army, has written to Karl On thiuil; from lOvneuntion hospital M'o. ;!, where he was stationed at the time of the letter, Oct. 110. Wilson was a member of A. T. (>. and prominent both in class activities and in athletics. His letter in part follows: ‘■Since the 25th of July, when I was sent up to the front at Soissons, each day has been filled to the brim. The spare moments I spent in sleep. Oh yes, 1 did have eight days’ rest in the middle of August (convalescent) when I got clogged up with some chlorine gas that a Boche plane was so thoughtful in drop ping in the center of a First Aid stn* tion I was running. After six days in a gas hospital I spent three days in Paris and had the pleasure of enjoying Uni versity of Oregon hospitality at the Uni versity Union. 1 met several A. T. O's. there slid it certainly was a pleasure to he able to sit down in big luxurious vouches and talk of good oM college days again just after coming out of 'Hell.’ " •' took part in the St. Mthiel offen sive as did ulso t’apt. Waiter McClure, "ho you probably know is now an feting major. I almost ran into him in tho drivo hut as luck would have it I missed him by half an hour. After the St. Mtkiel drive wo moved to Verdun We are now operating with the French 1th army under tleneral tlouroud. Our first few days here we were under shell fire con tinually, but now that we have got the Hun footing it back towards the Rhine von can just barely hear the big guns. ■\ on would simply stare in amazement i ' you could gaze upon what has been N Man’s Land' for the past four years, it Is almplj a mass of tangled barb wire, sunken pits, dugouts and waste, waste, waste, a* far as the eye can see. The Huns believed that n’ mortal being could penetr.it* these hellish defenses but the American* and French, under the most terrific barrage this front has ever known, went over the top the morning of (Vt. ‘2 mid through them like a fash of lightning.

Reddie, head of the department of public speaking, then on his way to Australia says, in part: “I cannot help sending you a line of greeting from the ‘Antipathies,’ as Mrs. Malaprop would say. “It has so often been my wish on this beautiful voyage that Mis. Campbell and yourself might be having it instead of i myself. I eannot think of anyone who would more gladly have enjoyed or de served it. I feel positively selfish to have been the fortunate one. “I shall have many interesting things to tell you all when I return, for the ship is full of wounded Australian officers and refugees from London. Surely we do not know the war in our country.” — MEN USE UNIVERSITY UNION.
