TOR OREGON
Perhaps never in the history of this
American nation have the peoples been
so keened, ho aroused, and bent to
common end and duty than during
those long, arduous days from April (I,
11117, until November 11, 1919. The
grim business of war making, speeding
lip industry in fabricating engines of
death, the clink of sabers, the grandish
ing of bayonets, the cries of the wound
ed, the moans of the dying, left indeli
ble inscriptions on the brows of
American manhood and womanhood.
Ah with the vigor of youth we en
tered tin1 fray, hurried the day of vie
tory and triumph, and with quickness
and virility we are hurrying back to
the normalities of life. Another six
months should see our last khaki!
wearer home from foreign soil.
We all notice a spirit of semi-quiet
ness, a somewhat hold in leash entlni
siasm on the campus. The Marine, re
turned from eight months of Hun hunt
ing, to the duller business of the pur-|
suit of knowledge, sighs for “the good
old days of yoHten.ny. " He who guid
«'d a powerful motor through the air,
llnds the reaction of earthly bookcar >
rving a dispirited thing. And in all
is it not the natural reactive process
of mind, “the lull after tin' storm,”
the jump from steeled nerves and body
tension to relaxation.

We van dispell the quietness, the
1 mood of taking tilings as they come.
It rests upon every Oregon man and
woman. Enthuse more. Gather with
your fellows on the campus. Between
classes let the Library steps and the
historic trees in front of Deady buzz
with the games with the Aggies, the
track meet, and the biggest and best
Junior week-end in Oregon’s history.
Believe in Oregon. Know the re
cords of the men who carried her ath
letic light to the highest pinnacle.
Have faith, unlimited faith in her
ability to cope with any institut ion
in the country. Know that our Oregon
will some day grow to become one of
the largest, institut ions on the Coast.
Respect our antagonists, do not un
derestimate our opponents in any line
of endeavor. But know and believe
that our institution need never bow its
head in any line of endeavor to an ad
versary.
Let us harness every resource and
activity in ending this historic school
year in glory. Start today to insure
an unequaled Juniof week-end. The
duty is plainly before us-—an oppor
tunity to give measure for measure.
Oregon men and women have never
failed. They will respond without .fail
during these all important days that
are so full with meaning in fashioning
our future.

- —.----—,—
Who is going to win the tennis game
between the Dolts and faculty team
No. 1 is the big question in doughnut j
athletics now. These teams will prob
ably clash Thursday afternoon. Pres
cott and Colonel Leader form a com- :
bination that may be the downfall of j
the Delt team unless they play first |
class tennis. There is nothing sensa
tional about the game the faculty team
plays, but it is greatly feared by the
fraternity teams. On the Delt team
Ken Smith seems to be the strong
member. Ken plays a game of tennis i
that will bring him fame some day.
lack Askev, who can cross the court in
two steps, is not any weak sister, so the
Delt duo looks pretty good even though
they are backed against former college
champions.
Among the followers of the racket
sport it is thought that the champion-j
ship rests between these two teams,'
and the game between them may decide
the honors of the league.

SETS NEW RECORD
Returns from Trip with Most
Flowers, Cabbages, Ducks
and Coin in History
(By HELEN MANNING)
All previous University glee club
records wer» broken when members of
the girls’ glee club returned to Eugene
Sunday after a five-clay tour through
Coos Bay, laden with flowers, tomatoes,
cabbage,s, live ducks, and $400. Never
! before did such a club return with such
a purse and never before did the Coos
Bay theaters house so many people at
one time. “It was all my life was
worth,’’ said Margaret Mansfield,
“to guard the common purse. I have
no desire to be a millionaire.’’
Standing room at the various show
houses along the line sold for all prices
but never for less than fifty cents,
find improvised camp stools narrowed
down the aisles. At Marshfield the
first stop, almost one hundred people
were turned away, and at Coquille the
property man turn ed the vestibule into
a theater wlier ethe people were forced
to be satisfied with hearing and not
seeing. “We surprised ourselves,’’
said Miss Eleanor Lee, dir ect or, “as
our concerts were far be tter than we
had dared to hope.” The newspaper
comment along the line would have flat
tered Caruso himself.
Girls Busy Socially.
Dunces, roc ep tions and dinners,
along with motorboat rides and pic
niees, kept the girls busy between
trains and concerts while getting ac
customed to the various types of stages
came in for its share of time. Patty
French, accompanist, found pianos of
every description, mostly the kind that
play in and out of tune. At Bandon
the piano had a motion that resembled
a boat in a storm and before the con
cert was ended Patty was sea sick.
Another feature of the Bandon show
was the stage, which had been en
larged for the night with boards that
sagged in the middle. Those who
danced in the stunt found the hills and
valleys thus formed exhilerating.
Several Dances Given
The girls were “farmed out’’ at all
the stops in the homes of hospitable
townspeople who rushed them around
in machines or boats to the various
points of interest. Dances of the “free
for all’’ nature were the usual enter
tainment after the concerts at all the
stops except Marshfield, where a recep
tion was held honoring the club in the
basement of the Methodist church.
Needless to snv, tin1 girls voted in
favor of the dances. At Bandon, the
party was held in “Dreamland,’’ the
hall in which the concert had just been
staged, and the music furnished by a
stamping fiddler and his lady friend
at the piano banished all “dreamland’’
The saddest part of the trip hangs
about Bandon and the good ship
“t’lmrin, ” which insisted upon leaving
dock there at 5:,U), just fifteen minutes
before .lane Murphey and Margaret
1'helps arrived upon the scene. Frantic
yells to the pilot and entreaties to the
engineer were of no avail, for the
••('harm” left on schedule time.
Telegrams and telephone messages were
planned on the boat by persons inter
ested in child welfare, and the chap
erons had completed arrangements to
return to Bandon by the next boat
when the “Charm’’ turned the corner
and came in sight of the Coquille
harbor. There the two lost ones stood
peacefully upon the dock, all unruffled
by their long motor ride, which hadT
landed them in Coquille long before
their anxious sisters.
Baby Ducks Take Trip
The train ride home was made lively
by the presence of two baby wild ducks
which had been presented by the ferrv
man at Coquille to two of the club
members. The box in which the ducks
were kept was low and the husky fowls
spent their entire time in an effort to
escape the walls. Twice they succeed
e.l. A furious riot was the result.
After the second capture the ducklings
"esigned thmeselves to their fate and
played about within the bounds of their
b \. Monday night at some very late
hour both ducklings died. although
i cy were surrounded with water and
food. The postmortem has failed to
reveal the cause of death.
The towns visited by the club were
Marshfield. Wednesday night: Co
(uille, Thursday night: Myrtle Point,
Friday night; Bandon, Saturday night.
“The girls will undoubtedly make a
smaller tr^p later in the spring." said
Margaret Mansfield, "and Portland
and Astoria are now being
sidored.' ’

But the fruit of loyal nature and of
noble mind. ’ ’
LIBRARY RECEIVES PAPERS
‘ ‘ The Hatchet ’ ’ From Transport
George Washington Reaches Campus
A bound file of “The Hatchet,’’
known as “the biggest little news
paper on the Atlantic,” published on
board the U. S. S. George Washington
for the benefit of the soldiers, has
been received at the library.
The book contains all editions of
“The Hatchet” thus far published.
The newspaper is made up of current
events, humor, and poetry and has
been read and sent home by over
50,000 soldiers who went over on the
George Washington. The book was
compiled by E. T. Pollock, of the IT.
8. Navy and Lieutenant P. F. Bloom
liardt, of the Navy Chaplain corps.
U-AVAVA PLEDGES TERRIER
i H. Devereaux Presents Club With
Lively Bull Dog
The latest pledge of the U-Avava
elub is one Rondo Caprice, a three year
old bull terrier, given to the organiza
tion by H. Devereaux, city engineer.
Rondo is no ordinary dog but fully
recommended with a pedigree which
dates back five generations. Rondo
has made the art of self defence his
chief ambition ever since his former
owner can remember and has been more
than willing to demonstrate his fight
ing ability ever since he arrived,
which has made it necessary for a club
member to accompany Rondo upon all
of his jaunts.
WAR WORK PLEDGES SHORT
Only 73 per cent of the United War
Work pledges made on the campus have
been paid, said Dr. A. E. Caswell, chair
man of the drive for the University,
The sum of $541)8.25 was pledged, and
only $3995.25 has been paid. The
pledges which are as yet unpaid are
divided among the different sections,
faculty, $144.50; women, $200; and
men, $1150. Many of the men were in
the >S. A. T. C. and as they are no longer
in school it is impossible to collect
their pledges, said Dr. Caswell.
