The faithful but snippy freshman girl waves her hand out over a considerable expanse of bench and says: “These seats •re reserved.” This has been the occasional welcome Oregon students have received when they enter the University gymnasium to at tend a basketball game. To send some representative abend of « considerable party to hold seats which those coming late are not entitled, is not democratic. While it may take nwu.v some of the present usefulness of freshmen in the University, the practice should be abolished at once in the best, interests of n campus which heretofore in tradition and practice lias bad cause to be proud of its democracy. Although the Oregon teams have fin ished the year as champions of the Pa cific Const Conference, there are yet, to be played on the local floor the games In the state inter-scholastic basketball series which will he participated in next week-end by some seven or eight high schools 'from over the state. This should he a good opportunity to correct the alien democracy of the re served sent contingent. Where a student ticket admits, Oregon women are seated »<s I ng as the inadequate gymnasium fa cilities permit—sometimes the men get seats—but there are no privileged peo ple, no "reserved seats.” SHOW ’EM A GOOD TIME. TTave you bought your fifty-rent sea son ticket to the etute intersoholastie basketball series to be played on the campus next week end? As a member of the student body of the University you are pledged to give support to this important event of the basketball season. The proceeds of the series go to the high school tennis com pi tiling according to the distance they Itave traveled to participate as repre sentatives of their section of the state. If the proceeds of the contests do not give a reasonable amount of expense money to the high school by os who 'istt here, tin unfavorable impression of the I’uiveraity will he the result. It is early in the ticket sale campaign hut the promise of expense money made to the high schools must not be forgot ten. This is the first state championship aeries to be played at the University or elsewhere In the state and it is import ant that it is a success. I’lse it will lose the principal ultimate benefit tha *o tjuaintlng of the high schools with the op portunities and conditions at Oregon to the end that n greater and greater per centage of high school students enter col lege for higher education. It is one of the duties of Oregon, to the state which supports the University. A CREDIT TO OREGON Faculty members and others qualified to judge declare the address to the jury by L. L. Ray, ’10, the most impressive they have heard In a court room. Mr. Ray, as district attorney, was prosecutor in the case of the State of Oregon against James Fullerton, now convicted of-libel against the University of Oregon, While it is not the intention of The Emerald to give space to a dead and un justfied case, The Emerald does want to give tribute to Mr. Ray. His ability as an attorney and an orator makes his loyalty i and interest in his alma mater conspicu ous among the alumni of the University. OUR PRESIDENT. The keen appreciation of the students is expressed on every side at the most generous gift of President and Mrs. Campbell toward the women's building. The gift not only brings the much de sired building nearer, but assures the students thst their efforts along this line are backed by the head of the institution. The many benefit affairs begin to look worth while and with the campaign launched in Eugene the prospects for a women's building at Oregon in the near future are bright. « The need for, and advantages of this building have been elaborated often and the students who will reap the benefits appreciate the generous action of Pres ident and Mrs. Campbell. 7 TEAMS SURVIVE FOR NEXT ROUND OF DEBATE (Continued from page one) osltlon stand*, and with Herman Lind, head of men's debate, on the Califor nia basketball trip, it Is probable that tho 4 houses will meet on schedule for the elimination of three of the com petitors.

TALKS OF CHINESE PEOPLE Mrs. Mar,< Wheeler Says Life of R!ch Woman is iot A!: Joy. Mrs. Mark II. Wheeler, a returned ■ missionary from China, was the speaker at an interesting meeting at the Bunga low Thursday afternoon at 5 o’clock. Mrs. Wheeler, with her husband has been stationed, for several years, in Kin Feng, Wo, China, working among Chinese stu dents, in connection with the Y. M. C. A. Mr. Wheeler is at present in France with the Chinese coolies, but after his return they will go again to their prov ince. In her talk Mrs. Wheeler told of the .interesting ways of the Chinese people, especially of the women. She said, “It is not at all or nice to be a rich woman in Chinn ns one would imagine for they are kept in almost total ignorance and know less about what is going on around them than most of our small children. “In many cases our missionaries have to take most ingenious ways to become acquainted with the natives, but after a way has once been opened it is not so dif ficult. The province in which we wore stationed was among the very last to be opened to the foreigners and it was not until very recently that work among students could be started because of the superstition of the classes. “The work has been progressing won derfully however since the building of a largo hospital and any one who would like practice in medicine or surgery would certainly be welcomed. Not only would he give service where needed but in return would gain experience of many cases which have never been known in the United States. It is the custom for the doctors to visit 275 ensos in the morning and operate all afternoon.” Mrs. Wheeler emphasised that to be a missionary in such places was not a sac rifice, for one received much more than he gave through knowledge of the people among whom he worked; and that more and more people were beginning to real ixe this and answer the call to the for eign fields. The Bungalow was gaily decorated with flags of various nations and girls dressed in native costumes of China, Ja pan, India. Philippine Islands and Korea, lent an interesting aspect to the talk. An illustrated lecture on Japan was given by Lois Lauphlin and a tea was served. CLASSES TO GIVE LUNCH Domestic Science Students Will Prepare and Serve Meals.
