OREGON REJOICES
Need it be said that all Oregon—
the University, and may we not in
clude the sport followers of the en
tire state—rejoices over the news
that Bill Hayward has decided to
stay with us? The realization that
has been forced to our minds during
the past two weeks of what Bill
really means to Oregon has opened
our eyes to his real merits. The
realization of the predicament our
athletic department would he in with
out his presence and spirit in all our
athletic undertakings has burst upon
us. Bill is Oregon flight personified,
that light which radiates from all our
athletic teams—that undying, un
quenchable spirit which plays such
an important figure in our victories.
His departure from our midst
would cause a bad rupture in our
athletic department. It would bo an
event such as has caused strong ath
letic departments to crumble to no
thingness and tlcalt them a blow
which has taken years to rebuild.
Without question he has given up
glittering offers in making his de
cision to stay at Oregon. Now we
must make these attractions seem
dim in comparison to the unfalter
ing, staunch loyalty we give him and
the teams ho trains and coaches.
“Bill Hayward —long may she
wave!’’
THE STUDENT’S EVOLUTION
The evolution of the University stu
dent’s spirit does not take place in
one or two leaps but is a steady de
velopment which gradually changes
the character of the individual.
Tho high school graduate enters
the University with unlimited ideas
and more or less fixed and high
ideals. The University graduate en
ters the world with just as many
ideas, hut ideas of an entirely dif
ferent nature. His ideals may still
be fixed, but they have undoubtedly
been greatly changed, and the height
of them depends upon how much of
a success he has been in college.
Of course, every type of freshman
is very much like and very much un
like his fellows. The beginner is am
bitious at first, whether on one line
or on another. He will either work a
lot or play a lot, but before the year
is over he will feel that ho is not
getting as much out of his school life
as he should, if he works hard, he
feels that others are getting by by
doing less, and with pleasuro as well
as hard study. The ones who play
most of the time suffer moments of
repentance and often possess a guil
ty conscience that they are hot do
ing themselves and their home folks
Justice. There are extremes in all
cases. Some students play all the
time, some work all the time, and
there are a few who know how to
do both in moderation.
To the average student, the first
year is one filled with hopes and the
acquiring of a general knowledge of
University affairs. At this time be
learns how to study and makes up
his mind as to the courses he ex
pects to pursue, decides what acti
vities he wishes to belong to and
what type of a student he expects. to
be. The sophomore year is1 more or
less of a turning point. During that
year the student works for the ends
that he has in view. Whether or not
he is successful determines to a great
extent his character as a Junior. The
third year is more or less of a grind.
If the student is not satisfied with
his beginning, the year will be mon
otonous. His type as student is set
tled by that time and his activities
conform with his type. But what
ever type he is, he will have plenty
to do.
The senior year finishes the college
development. Everyone trys to com
plete what he has started and to
make up for those things he has
missed. He may be tired of study
but few are glad to leave. If any
have gone through the four years
without making any particular mark
in their career, they leave with fear
in their hearts. But those who have
lived up to their highest ideals and
have been a success, enter the world
courageously and with high hopes
for the future.—Daily Kansan.
OUR SELFISH WOMEN
Selfishness is always to be dis
countenanced in any form, and it is
with regret that we .notice an atti
tude of selfishness among the women
of our own campus. This selfishness
was manifested during the last week
in the action of the women who sent
freshmen to the basketball games
about six o’clock to save rows of
seats for other members of their or
ganizations, who came in over an
hour later and leisurely found their
places, while others, not so fortunate
in having special messengers, stood
behind them. This holding of seats
is an evidence not only of selfishness
but of an undemocratic spirit. The
student-body ticket admits all. No
one has the right to save seats. Be
lieving such practice to be wrong in
every respect, we ask that at the
next games the women show more
consideration for others and take the
consequences of late arrival by stand
ing throughout the game.

(Continued from page 1)
man on the student council, says: “The
Emerald is a student body publica
tion and needs and should have the
bysupport of the student body. The
subseriution price of the college
paper is added to the regular stu
dent body fees so that each student
must subscribe to the paper if he
wishes to enroll in the college. At
Oregon we give the students the
right to decide whether the paper is
worth their sunpport. We force no
one to subscribe. Now is a critical
time in tho story of the Emerald.
Printing costs have increased greatly
and at this time only a small part
of the student body is taking the
paper. Don’t be a piker and look
over someone else’s shoulder at the
paper. Buy your own.”
ERA GODFREY, secretary of the
student body is strong for continuing
the Emerald and made the state
ment today that "overy Oregon stu
dent should prove his loyalty by
subscribing to the student publica
tion.”
KARL ONTHANK, secretary to
President Campbell, says: “The Em
erald is just ns much part of the
University’s activities as football.
No student can afford to be without
the contact."

Hfe Sbng of the Race
I’ve baptised many freshmen,
Each year they .visit me
In winter time mid snow and ice>
They keep me company.
I like these kicking freshmen,
They’re always blowing bubbles,
And when I see how sad they are
I forget my many troubles.
They’ve used me as a swimming
pool.
Canoes upon me float,
I’m very, very gentle,
I never rock the boat.
That shady place they sing aboul
Is found 'most every day.
I keep the deacons busy,
At least so people say.
Each year I hear from morn till
night
Fair co-eds sweetly chanting
To fellows who, before they’re thru,
Will find their pin they’re planting.

A little lass at college grew,
A little peach of cosmetic hue,
Freckled with sun, this lady true
She grew.
One day while hiking to Spencer’'?
butte
She met, a freshman laddy cute.
They both belonged to the institute
Them two.
He looked into her eyes so blue,
His heart with rapture beat anew,
A thing which he could not subdue,
Too true.
At the Oregana they ordered a coke,
Alas, poor John, for he was broke.
In words profane, the owner spoke,
Boo hoo.
Said Sue to Johnny, I am thru,
I’ll have no more to do with you.
Poor Johnny now is feelipg blue,
Me too.

While walking down the street one
day, I passed a maidffn charming.
From the baby carriage which she
pushed, came noises quite alarming.
It sounded more to me like snakes,
than like a baby’s prattle. I dove into
the carriage, and I found a cursed
rattle.
