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

the o»«st hinges om the games Friday
