Floyd Bowles Staff Assistants: Lee Culbertson, Charles Lamb SATURDAY, APRIL, 10, 1920 LOYALTY EVERAL months ago a banquet was held in the Eugene cham ber of commerce rooms. It was a fest given in honor of the Oregon football team following its memor able battle with the Harvard eleven. Oregon spirit, enthus iasm and joy were rampant. Yet: underneath all the outward] show of untroubled spirits there] was a nervous undertow, a sort, of sorrow in the breasts of the' hundreds assembled. Bill Hay-| ward, Oregon’s grand old man, a veteran of 20 years coaching and training of Lemon-Yellow athletic teams, had received a glowing offer from another in stitution and Oregon fans were afraid that he would accept it. Even now at this banquet he might give out his decision. buucleniy the outer portals ot the banquet room became a liv ing mass of humanity. The voices of 500 University! men swelled into a thunderous de mand for “Bill” and “Shy.” They responded and when they left the banquet room and stood be fore that packed mass of noise making humanity a pandemon ium reigned. Cheers shook the building for many minutes. .Re solutions pledging unending sup port to Bill were read. The 500 men gave their pledge of fidelity with echoing cheers. They gave their promise as men to support him if he would not leave. ♦ * * * * The start of the hardest track schedule an Oregon team has ever faced is now not many weeks distant. With but few men of experience back in col lege the Varsity track team will have to be composed largely of j new men. These new men are not in evidence. Right now there are not three men out for every event when at this stage of training in a University the size of which Oregon boasts there should at least be 10 aspir ants. Bill has never asked for expert track men. The opposite has always been the case. If he has the material he will make the team. That is where his ability comes into play. Bill has coached many Oregon teams to victory. In fact there have been but three or four defeats in his many years at Oregon. “There is no disgrace in defeat,” says Bill, “when you know that the team which met defeat was representative of your institu tion. Where the disgrace comes in is when the defeated team is not representative of the actual strength of the University.” Shall we say more? If you are not convinced, picture your self as Bill Hayward standing before a mighty throng of wild ly cheering University men pledging their support to him and to Oregon. Then picture him on the Kincaid field watch ing a mere handful of men train for his track team, while from across the campus drifts the music of jazz orchestras enter taining a score or so of Univer sity men in The Dansant; while loyalty-swearing youths paddle canoes up the mill race and others amble about the high ways in company with cooing co-eds. DAILY CONFERENCES SET MILLAGE BILL CHAIRMEN TO MEET AT LUNCHEON Plan to Obtain Co-operation From Every Student to be Working Soon, Says Newbury Latest plans of Don Newbury, chair man of the student committee which is perfecting a plan of campaign for the millage bill to have every stu dent on the campus get in touch with home folks and friends in order to enlist their support for the measure, include daily conferences of all county and district chairmen from now until the completion of the can vass. These conferences will be held at lunch each noon, commenc cing Monday, April 12, at Hendricks hall. The system devised by the student Committee provides for the division of responsibility among a number of students, but is intended to keep close supervision over the work of each individual. It was pointed out yesterday that if every one will do the little bit assigned to him the combined student bodies of Oregon, O. A. C. and Monmouth Normal can swing 50,000 votes to the support of Higher education. “What is needed,” declared Don Newbury, “is to have everyone real ize what the loss of the bill means io Oregon, and to instill the feeling that the small work asked of each, student may bo the deciding factor in the campaign. The millage bill campaign for the next six weeks is absolutely the biggest interest of everyone on the campus.” The plan, according to Newbury, will be in active operation within ten days, and will seek to have each stu dent get in touch with as many of of his friends as possible by means of personal letters. Four assistants to Don Newbury have been selected who will have direct supervision over the work of an assigned number of county chair men. Two special asslsstants have been assigned to take charge of Portland and Lane county. The six students selected to serve on New bury’s staff nre Eddie Durno, Jack Dundore, Henry Foster, Sprague Car ter, Beatrice Weatherbee and Jack Beneflel. Lane county workers will be supervisced by Beatrice Weather bee, while Jack Beneflel takes charge of the Portland work. These are in j^muaMHiiiiiiniiimmiinimmiimiitnMimmiiimiiiimmmiaiiiMiiiiiiiiimimiiiiiimiiiiiunmiiai! addition to the county chairmen previously announced. PRESS NOTICES COMPLIMEN TARY TO ALL CONCERTS Trip is Successful in Every Way— Even the Accident Turns Out Well in the End Members of the University Orches tra arrived in Eugene Sunday night after their annual concert tour of the Coos Bay district. They express ed themselves as more than satisfied with the trip. “We made many friends,” said Mr. Underwood, “ and everywhere we went we were treat ed with great hospitality and cordi ality. We played to large houses in every stop.” The orchestra returned with near ly $200 above the expenses of the trip and with a pile of press notices that give evidence of the splendid manner in which the concerts were received, and the good impression left by the orchestra on the central and eastern Oregon towns. Orchestra members were entertain ed at the homes of citizens at the different towns, and special enter tainments, dances and dinners were provided at every stop. “The only mishap that occurred,” said Mr. Underwood, “turned out well in the end.” While on the boat be tween Bandon and Marshfield, a pas senger chose the package of orches tra music as a pillow and went to sleep on it, so that when the or chestra landed at Marshfield the music was overlooked and left on board. It was some t^ime later that the loss was discovered. Meanwhile, the boat had continued its way to Coquille. It was thought for a while that the concert that night would have to be made without sheet mus ic, but a quick trip overland to Co quille located the package. The con cert that night was a great success. TICKETS FOR Y.W.C.A.
