It Is necessary that our spdendld now field have a fitting name. A committee of student council mem bers lias been appointed to work with a committee of faculty members to select a name but they need the sug gestions and opinions of the mem bers of the student body at large in making the selection. Shall the field be named after some individual who has worked unceas ingly In behalf of the University for the past many years, or shall it be given a title representing something else which holds a meaning or sen timent for our students?

That There Dance In a flannel shirt that was glazed witl> dirt, Each stude was feeling gay. Short men and tall, boots, shoes and all 9 Shimmied the time away. White collars there, were very rare, Yet one or two walked in— But if one profits by the past, They won’t be worn again. Yes, maidens fair were everywhere, In hiking boots and sweaters; If football men got out alive They sure deserved their letters. The struggle ceased at 10 o’clock, Too short, of course, but then, ’Tis soon that we beat Pullman— And celebrate again. Once Upon a Midnight Dreary (Jp Eleventh street a maiden ran Such speed was quite alarming; Behind the miss a man sped up To catch the maiden charming. Ten blocks they made in nothing flat The Springfield car they passed, The motorman was much alarmed To see his car outclassed. I crouched to grab the villain^ His puffing frame to climb— I start to leap—the maiden shrieks, "Oh, good!—we’re in on time.” Bashful Bertram Bays: They do not study Sherman Clay In geology. The member of the band who plays the drum will have to beat his way to Portland. A fellow is not a criminal If he goes to court, unless he is courting another fellow’s girl. Answer to last week’s query: DJer Kiss Is pronounced Pebeco. - A freshman sat on the senior bench and a bunch of sophomores were hot but the soph president was Boylen. Elmo Madden had a circular letter advertising tooth paste and a frosli. thought it was a diploma from Col gate College. “Has" Smith is make-up editor of the Emerald, but this has nothing to do with the dramatic section. Some students do their outside reading at the bulletin board in front of the library. Just because you feel Bolshevistic there is no need of rushin’ around. A frosh desires to get into the band on the grounds that a shoe horn is an Instrument. If tlu> Gamma Phi basement leaks much more they will have a little ferry in their home. Pour-quoi? Oh what is so rare as a day in June, The poet lightly whispers. A girl who goes to Springfield, And does not tell her sisters. SIGMA ALPHA EPSILON announces the pledging of William Purdy of Eugene, Harry Meyers of The Dalles. WANTED A piano to rent. Phone 1338. historic Eggs and Cabbages too Much for ’/l. K. P’s. The scheduled Alpha Kappa Psi in itiation speeches did not come off this morning. The neophytes, al though prepared in dress, manner and forensics, were unavoidably de tained inside of Deady hall, and were unable to face the large crowd of students, vegetables and historic eggs which awaited them. Bill Steers, Bas Williams and Spike Leslie were the anticipated speaker^ The trio composed lengthy ard weigh ty speeches on various commercial subjects of the day, dressed in their best clothes, marched about the cam pus beating a drum to collect the crowd, and then beat a hasty retreat into the shelter of Deady hall. Someone with an accurage aim laid a barrage of rotten eggs and ancient cabbages on the backs of the neophytes. The speeches were never given. PLANS FOR SENIOR SHINDIG PROGRESS SNAPPY AFFAIR TO BE HELD NOVEMBER 21—COMMITTEES ARE APPOINTED Seniors’ Cynical Shindig — Men’s Gym—November 21. Senior dignity will be blasted. Stunts, fun and food will abound. Woe to the man or woman who dresses up. No dates; every senior come; attend the Shin dig functions for seniors only. Such is the gist of the report of the senior dance committee, headed by Mike Harris, given yesterday after noon at the class meeting in Villard hall. Harris will have general charge of and chief responsibility for the affair, but he has appointed hard working classmates to assist him, as follows: Reception committee—Gladys Hark ke (chairman), Ethel McGilchrist( Lee Hulbert, Curt Peterson. Music committee—Norman Phillips (chairman), Chet Adams. Stunts committee—Ike Ross (chair man), Lyle McCroskey, Alys Sutton, Jeannette Moss. Food committee — Harold Brock j chairman), Lindsay McArthur, Mar jorie Kay, Clementina Cameron. Publicity committee—Adelaide Lake (chairman), Jack Dundore, Joy Jud kins. The various committees are already at work. Ike Ross promises to pro duce stunts superior to those of the; April frolic. The food outfit re- j commends that seniors do not eat supper on the evenign of the 21st, for j real food no refreshments, will be forced upon the Cynics. Posters, in box-car letters, will appear in the near future. The class also went on record as favoring a confectionery desk at the Y. M. C. A. hut, where candy and* chewing tobacco might he readily ob-; talned by students on the campus. A treasurer’s report disclosed a bal ance of $240.42. FACULTY TO HAVE PARTY Get Acquainted Entertainment to be in Y Hut Friday Evening Speeches from new members of the j faculty and musical numbers from 1 the recently added professors In the school of music is the entertainment planned for the faculty party Friday evening in the Y. M. C. A. hut. Thq purpose of this affair is twofold; primarily of course, to get acquainted with one another, since there are 25 additions to Oregon's teaching staff tliis, year. Then, too, the board of regents just voted to put a few more sheckles in the moneybag each month to help the pedagogues payroll along, so they find this alone would be ex cuse enough to celebrate. Those responsible for the success of the affair are Professor \Y. F. G. Timelier, Mrs. Anna Landsbury Beck. Mrs. K. K. OeOou. Mrs. Larremore and Professor Robert W. Prescott. "The party will be quite informal in its nature^" stated Professor Thacher, “and it is to be hoped that none of I the faculty will miss this opportunity to get acquainted.” The championship of the State of Washington will be decided the same day that the Oregon title will be determined. The University of Washington meets the W. S. C. eleven in Spokane on November 15. »»’»*■»»»»» »»»»»« m m m . m Picture Framing ' ■ Is part of Our Business Anderson film Shop ... 2......
