A GREATER OREGON
The Emerald is able to report with
the opening of the present quarter a
tale similar to that which has been car
ried in the paper twice a year until the
introduction of the three-quarter sys
tem and since that time three times
a year all during the time since the
establishment of The Emerald along
in 11101. And it is nothing to bo
laughed at, despite its repetition. Again
the University is larger and greater
than ever.
The number of students on the cam
pus has jumped from the 1150 of last
quarter, which was the largest enroll
ment up to that time, to over 1300 with
more students registering daily.
Because of the constant losses from
the student body ranks as the men left
for service resulting in the fear that
the old men would be lost and the Ore
gon Spirit die away, it is not generally
known that the Cniversity of Oregon
has never suffered a decrease in enroll
ment. Since the beginning the Uni
versity every semester and every qunr
ter has shown an increase in enroll
ment the smallest increase being in
1017, when it was but two per cent
a condition not duo to the entering
class but to the particularly heavy on
list meats during the early period of
the war.
The increase this quarter is the larg
est in Oregon history for mid-year or
spring term and indicates a rapid re
turn of Oregon’s long list of service
men. It’s a greater Oregon always.
MOKE FAINT
Again tIn* Oregon rumpus has boon
ttie sufferer at the hands at' moiiu* prao
tionl joke porpottutors who consider it
the height of humor to disfigure build
ings and campus fixtures witli paint.
Prom the typo of doeorntions seen on
the senior bench and on tt eouple ot
sorority houses near the i nmpus the
other day it would seem that the poi
sons who applied the deeorutive paint
were very youn - and of the ago of mind
vailed adoleseeut.
It the Pis slunan elass is responsible
for such infantile nets its vigilance
committee might do well to diseovei
the vonthfnl jokesters and inform them
that their joke is rather of high sehool
days than Pimeisity days and that
it is also so very worn and old that
every one is tired of it.
On the other hand, if the paint daub
iog was done by several very voung
Eugene youngsters with a perverted
sense of a joke, some manner of legal
discouragement ot repetition of sueh
unwanted interest in I’niverstty prop
erty might be effective.

WOMEN BEGIN
ATHLETIC WORK
Archery, Tennis, Canoeing and Swim
ming Classes Are Crowded
for Spring Work
Outdoor sports for women this spring
term will soon be in full swing, for
every day sees classes in tlie sports of
fered, meeting for their first instruc
tion. There has, as yet, been no com
plete registration of all the women in
the department of physical education,
but each underclass woman in the Uni
j versity is required to take; a spring
i sport as her gymnasium substitute.
Swmiming, tennis and baseball are
' all popular. Classes in canoeing, with
j Miss Harriet Thomson, as instructor,
{ are larger than can be accommodated.
I Roughly estimating, there have been 20
i girls who have registered for this sport,
| but there should be no more than 14,
Miss Thompson said. These classes
j meet Monday, Wednesday and Friday
j mornings at 3 and 9 o’clock. About 15
girls have signed up for archery. Two
of these, Miss Ada Hall, a graduate
student, and Miss Marion Bowen, have
taken archery Indore and have won
trophies, but are eligible to shoot for
points.
Tennis classes under Miss Gladys
Gorman are large. The courts are be
ing prepared, and regular p,laying will
start as soon as 'they are finished.
Classes now consist of preliminary in
struction. it is planned to hold inter
class tournaments among the women,
and mixed doubles tournaments, with
I both men and women participating
| later in the year.
For baseball, the regulation outdoor
baseball game will be played, except
the diamond will be smaller, and softer
balls will bo used. Miss Gorman is the
instructor and the class meets Monday,
Wednesday and Friday at 4 o’clock.
Four girls have enrolled in the swim
ming methods class. The work offered
at this time will enable the girls taking
it to teach swimming.
The weather is particularly favorable
for outdoor sports this term. It has
been some time in the history of the
department that spring work could
start on scheduled time with the winter
work finished and the annual demon
stration over.

Faculty Votes to Loosen Up on Social
Regulations
Restrictions on the social activities
of students were loosened by the facul
ty at the regular April meeting Wed
nesday afternoon, when the report of
the joint social affairs committee was
adopted. Hereafter, the student body
willt be allowed eight dances a year in
stead of four, the number previously
permitted, and dancing will be allowed
iri the various houses of residence after
dinner each evening except Sunday.
The stepping may bo done up to 7:30
on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday
evening, provided the number of non
member guests does not exceed half the
number of members of the house. On
Friday and Saturday evenings, the
hour is extended to 9:30.
Besides the big student-body dances,
each fraternity and hall of residence is
allowed a maximum of two dances a
school year, except Hendricks hall, to
which four dances are allowed. No o^ie
in the hall, however, will be permitted
to attend more than two of these in
any college year. The difference here
is attributed to the large number of
residents in Hendricks. Other organ
izations, such as To-go-lo, Oregon Club
and others are allowed one dance a year.
The fiiculty committee having ^/in
hand the matter of revising the details
of registration was instructed to in
clude in its report a clause providing
that each student must have his class
card signed by the teacher of that par
ticular class before completing his reg
istration at the business office.
The degree of bachelor of arts was
recommended to the regents for W. E.
Rutherford, superintendent of the
schools of Eugene, who has completed
the required work for that degree.
The faculty voted to meet hereafter
on the first Thursday of each month
instead of the first Wednesday as at
present.
DEBATE WITH 0. A. C. IS OFF
Corvallis School Asks Postponement;
Reed College Not Ready.
After three months of negotiations
with the Oregon Agricultural College
regarding an intercollegiate debate, a
letter was received during the vacation
from that institution by Robert W.
Prescott, professor of jiublic speaking
and sponsor of debate, in the Univer
sity, in which the Aggies asked to have
the contest postponed for this year.
According to Professor Prescott the
concession will have to be made since
it takes two to make a contract. The
possibilities of a debate with Reed
College have falloe through because at
the time of negotiations that college
had not yet succeeded in getting an
instructor in debate.
