HELEN BRENTON
ELECTED EDITOR
Student Council Fills Two Vacancies;
Recommends Informal
Junior Prom
Helen Brenton was elected editor of
the Emerald by the student and execu
tive councils to fill the vacancy in the
editorship, at a meeting held in Dr. Gil
bert’s room in the Library last night.
Miss Brenton is a Senior and has had
quite a little journalism experience,
having been an associate editor of the
Emerald up to the present time. She
was editor of the Oregon last year and
is a member of Theta Sigma Phi, na
tional women’s journalistic fraternity.
After some discussion yesterday af
ter the Junior class had voted to make
the Junior Prom a formal, student coun
cil voted last night to recommend to
the junior class that the Junior Prom
bo informal this year, but hereafter
the Junior Prom be a formal. This rec
ommendation was passed unanimously.
The council felt that in view of the fact
that there had boen so much discussion
about the Prom and because so many
men have been in the service for some
months and while in the service re
ceived small pay, the men themselves
are not in a position to afford a formal
at the present time. Marian Coffey,
Henry English and New Fowler were
appointed to present the recommenda
tion to Harry Jamieson, junior presi
dent.
Essie Maguire was appointed chair
man of the condolence committee to
take the place of Dorothy Flegel, who
left college. Harriett Garrett takes
Miss Flegel's place on the council.
Nish Chapman was urged to got a
date for a student body dance for the
near future.
Herald Whit,o asked that student
council get behind the State Oratorical
Contest which will be held here Friday,
and Junior Week End, and make both
of them a success. He also urged that
students attend the assemblies better,
ns only the best of speakers are selected
and so few people turn out for the as
sembly, that the speaker really gets a
very poor idea of Oregon.
Herald White, Helen McDonald, El
la Dews, Essie Maguire, Marian Cof
fey, Harriett Garrett, Ned Fowler,
Jack Duudorc, Nish Chapman, Adah
MeMurphey, Tracy Byers and llenrv
English were present at last night's
council meeting. Bill Hollenbeck was
also present from the executive conn
cil.

and Dundore
At a special meeting this afternoon
the faculty voted to expel Douglas Mul
larky, Lloyd Still, Jack Dundore and
Richard Avison from the University.
The faculty is meeting this afternoon
to decide the punishment to be given

arv committee is recommending evpul
sion for the four men, all juniors, who

Still, of Milton. Oregon; Jack Dundore,
of Portland, ami Richard Avison, of
Salem.
The paper was published in Free
water, in Pastern Oregon, in vacation
w eek.
The part of Mullarky and Still in
the getting out of the sheet was uneov
ered by faculty investigation of a most
thorough nature. Kvidence was gained
l>\ work of true detective character,
and after the detection of the part
played by Mullarky and Still. Dun
dore and Avison confessed this morn
ing.
Mullarky and Still have already left
Eugene.
JUNIOR PROM
TO RE FORMAL
But Flowers and Taxis Will be Out of
• Order at Week-End Ball,
Say Class
An informal or formal Prom was the
debated question when the events for
Junior Week-End were considered at
the meeting of the Junior class held
Wednesday morning at 10 o’clock in
Professor Howe’s room at Villard hall.
The question was put to a vote after
Forest Watson eloquently exploited and
exhausted the reasons why the Junior
Prom should be formal. Although the
general consensus of opinion was di
vided on the question, it was found by
a standing vote that those favoring the
rule of informality were in the major
ity. But the minority was not satis
fied so the question was brought back
for reconsideration. With an amend
ment that the Prom should be formal
with the exception of the elimination
of flowers and taxis, a second vote was
taken in favor of a formal Junior Prom.
Picnic to be Given
Merle Margason gave the report of
the committee on the junior picnic,
which the class voted to have at a pre
vious meeting. After confering with
Dean Straub, according to Margason,
it was found that the plan of having
the picnic on a week night was unfa
vorable, and that the party must be
back by 9 o ’clock in the evening. It
was decided to have the picnic, how
ever. The committee in charge was in
structed to arrange the plans for the
affair which will probably be held May
4.
Harry Jamieson, class president, ask
ed the class to express their opinion
regarding the men attending the senior
lottery dance in case of a shortage of
senior men. The men in the class were
highly in favor of the idea but a pro
test was offered by the feminine ele
ment in the class. The president, how
ever, did not let this demur prejudice
his opinion on the question, so the jun
ior men will be present at the senior
lottery if they are asked.
To Remove Five Hairs From Lip
During the course of the meeting
Merl Margason discovered that one of
the class members was guilty of having
“five hairs on his upper lip.’’ It was
decided that some one should be ap
pointed to prevent such a matter from
occuring again. Owing to Margason’s
“excellent eyesight’’ he was nominated
and unanimously elected to the office
of “class barber.’’
Committees for Junior Week-End
were appointed by Harry Jamieson as
follows: Week-End programs, Bruce
Vergen and Leslie Schwering; canoe
fete, Hula Smith, Adah McMurphy, Al
bert Runquist and Forest Watson;
junior canoe, Ned Fowler, Elmo Mad

ROUGHNECK TIME PLANNED
Interfraternity Smoker Advertised to
be One Wild Time
A big interfraternity smoke will be :
held in the chamber of commerce j
building Saturday night, April 12, at
7:30. A general wild and roughneck
time is being planned and it certainly
sounds good. Listen! Phony money,
lots of it, will be given to everyone at- !
tending. And gambling, say, boy, you
would think it was going to be a regu
lar Monte Carlo, for there will be poker
games, roulette wheels and as many i
kinds of other games as can be run.
“Have a drink?” Sure, then step right
up to the bar where you can get any
thing from Sunnybrook to mint juleps,
only the committee is afraid most of
the boys will have to drink cider (may
be soft). There will be lots of tobacco
and everyone can have cigarettes, ci
gars and pipes. An then come the eats,
which will be hot dogs and sandwiches,
and everyone can have absolutely all
he wants.
Each fraternity on the campus will :
put on some kind of a stunt and prob
ably most of the stunts will be boxing
and wrestling. There is a whispering |
about that some fraternity is going to
show something different; but it is a
dark, deep secret. The committees are
working hard to make the smoker a
big success. Lloyd Tegart has general
charge of the smoker with several com
mittees under him.
Several faculty members will be on
hand to enjoy the festivities. So, all
in all, it is going to be a wild night,
and if you want to get a little Bohe
mian atmosphere just drop into the
chamber of commerce building Satur
day night.
