This year we can justify the increased responsibility placed upon us all by continuing to work for “Greater Oregon” by maintaining the highest stand ard of scholarship and of University ideals. There are now twelve schools or major divisions in the Uni versity. The enrollment this fall will certainly reach at least two thousand. With this growth in size and diversity of work there is danger that the University will lose the close com munity spirit which lias always characterized it. By conscious striving against this tendency to segregate into groups, 1 am sure that this fine old friendly cooperation can be maintained. This is the year, it seems to me, to carry forward the work studied by student committees for several years, namely that of student self-government. A self-government based on mu tual confidence, mutual respect and mutual effort in achieving the highest type of University life, and representing every fac tor in the University community, student and faculty alike, will round out splendidly the organization and life in the Un iversity. My greetings go to all Oregon students, new and old. This will be the finest year in the history of the University and we lire glad that you are to be a part of it. P. L. CAMPBELL. 25 FRESHMEN OUT FOR 1924 ELEVEN “Ken” Bartlett to be Mentor of Infant Football. With the arrival of Coach ‘Ken’ Bart lett 'Monday the freshman football can didates started their fall workout. About twenty-five men turned out for the first practice, and more will be out later. The freshmen seem to have a good turn out of heavy men, and Bartlett is well pleased \yith them, 'The’main work for the first two weeks will be preliminary practice, consisting of falling on the ball, tackling the dummy and punting prac tice. The regular scrimmage will not start until the last part of next week. During the first practice two of the men were injured. While diving at the ball “Tommy” D’Arana ml ,a John Day product, received a broken collar bone, ind Frink, a San Diego boy, strained bis shoulder. These injuries were.due to the hard field. “Bas” Williams, a member of last year s varsity team, who was to assist Liartictt in tne coacbiug, is working with Las brother in a bakery and will be unable Lo take the wink. Efforts are ibeing made to secure a man as an assistant. Bartlett is at present trying to arrange a number of games for the freshmau squad.

Mo*n You’d* Think ® ® & Hospitable Elmer Has Latest on It Ma.vbe Shekespear was right iu his es timate of the scant significance of names, but an answer received to 11 letter of welcome mailed to a prospective student Usings doubt's. 1'VJIowing an ancient cusltom of the university, :old timers who arrived early obtained lists of stu dents who had written inquiring about entering. The following letter is typi cal of those mailed, though the answer is unique. The letter was addressed to a “Mr. Browning Purdin”: Dear Purdin: I understand that you are to come to the University this fall, and I want to know you. Maybe you’ll come here a perfect stranger y.vut it doesn’t take long to get acquainted. Everyone is friendly and we want you to act on that idea. I live at Friendly Hall on the ground floor. Come in via the window—it’s nearest. We’ll manuge to supply you with a dresser or table or maybe a trunk to hang your feet from and we’ll have a talk that will make you think you're in your own back yard. Possibly we wont like each other but I promise not to kick you out the first time anyhow. Climb in. ELMER PEN DELL. The answer was as follows: Dear Pcndell: Your letter i-eceivcd and I thank you for your courtesy. I appreciate your friendly spirit immensely and regret that, two reasons prohibit my accepting your hospitality; one being that I hare beep forced to change my plans and will lie unable to enter the University this fall, and the other,-I believe that it is not deemed proper by the authorities for young ladies to call at the men’s dor mi - tory and perch themselves upon trunks or tobies and imbibe tin tuanly con versation and much smoke. 1 Alas, ’tis not for us of the weaker sex,-but what could be more thrilling. I assure you again, that if it wore possible I would surely accept your hos pitality. My parents held no particular grudge, just luu insane inspection prompted them to handicap me through .life with a name like mine. Think nothing of your error; everyone makes the same mistake and I regard it as a huge joke. If you ever come south drop in at the bank. While we have no trunks we have plenty of tables and stools to sit upon. Wishing you a successful year at the University and thanking you again for your friendliness, I am ”1 Yours sincerely, ' MISS Browning Pur din.
