A GREAT STATE. t Oregon is a great state. “Bill’ Hay ward who has brought the particular expression of the fact., can say it ns readily this week-end as he ever could despite the somewhat doubtful beginning nnd prospects Oregon could boast at tin* beginning of the season because of the war. Oregon’s football team started the old fight, and was not to be laughed at as Shy’s men demonstrated by taking the .Northwest championship. This week the basketball team is hack om Che campus after u hard scries of games in which Oregon w on both games from Washington State College, and the only game played with the University of Idaho. The boys who are doing the fighting in this line for Oregon are back with the highest record in the northwest conference. They look good to get away witli the same honors won by the football team last fall. If anything it will he more unique as Oregon has not bad a northwest conference championship for several years. It will be a good way to 'tart this readjustment business. Tlit men on the basketball team this Beasotu are doing something for Ore gon. They deserve all the support Oregon students can give them because they must win the two games next 'week-end from O. A. C. not only for ’'sentimental’’ reasons but because it. will mean an Oregon team to represent the northwest in California this year. It’s going to be a reui game when Oregon goes into the week end work. Now is not too soon to begin preparations. THE NEW CUT RULE, The now ruling that no student may see his cuts ut tlu* window of the Regis trar’s office works a hardship on the student body because of the large chance for mistakes. It is very common for students to find their cards credited with undeserved cuts. Absent-minded members of the faculty have not in frequently sent in Sunday cuts and cuts have been charged against students in courses in which they were not regis tered. It is considered unjust to put into effect, without notice, the rule ths' students are not allowed to look up their cuts prior to February 21, when the ruling vea* announced. Students had not kept track of their cuts up to this date, yet the rule states that all absences prior to that date must be excused before the winter term is over or they will stand as permanent unex i used absences. When college hours are deducted for unexcused absences the injustice to the students is readily seen. Students should be allowed to get their cuts from the Kegistrar's window for all absences reported before February 21. The rule further states that all cuts must be excused through the offices of the deans. Here again students meet a perplexing situation. A group of students after having ob tained permission from the dean of the' College of Literature, Science and Arts to look up their back cuts had not time to copy the fateful cuts into their note books before permission was counter manded by telephone from the Dean of Women. Under such circumstances students are at a loss ns to the proper mode of pro cedure. THEY’RE BOLSH E VIK11 It appears that Kansas which, abiding by a recent restrictive rule, has a place ns an idealistic university because her students cannot dance inter than one o'clock, isn’t quite satisfied, ns might be expected at Oregon. Law students this week held nn indlgnntion meeting and burned the faculty student senate in effegy because the students have no voice in the government. A student council with authority and regular stu dent body meeting hour are demanded. And these students are termed “Bol sheviki” at Kansas! Eugene members of the doth Artillery, among them a number of former Univer sity of Oregon men, are returning to Eugene next Saturday. They did not pass through their home town on the wny westward to the camp of demobil ization, and so this is to be the first sight of home, for runny, in more than one year or perhaps two. Eugene citi zens are planning to welcome these homecoming soldiers and to let them know that all of Eugene is proud of them and glad to give them greeting again ufter the long months of the war. The University of Oregon is a district unit in Eugene, and it surely one no less than to lend itself ns a unit to every effort possible in making the homecoming welcome sincere and hearty. If we, ns the University, dq not make special plans for welcome, we can at least join with the townspeople in their welcome ut the station Saturday when these men of the (Wth come home. OREGON FIVE WINS THREE GAMES OUT OF FOUR ON TRIP (Continued from page 1.) games have shown that the combination of Fowler ami Durno at forward ami Chapman and .Taoobherger playing guard is the heat that has been hit upon this aeaeron. This gives Walker a great sub in Carter Brandon and he can be used at almost any position, which makes him one of the moat valuable meu on the squad. Week to Prepare for Apples The varsity will have all of this week in which to get into trim for the Ag gies ami should be able to capture both games of the series. That the local squad must have the undivided survport of the student body on the night of both of thi' games is certain. Whether or not Oregon wins the championship of the ' irthwest and makes the trip to Cali fo.-iiu to play for the championship of the o»«st hinges om the games Friday turn Saturday night*.
