GET OUT FOR SOMETHING
At Oregon there is no such thing as exclusiveness. A stud
ent who is entirely self-supporting is president of the associ
ated students this year. Other officer are filled by students who
are partially self-supporting. Farmers’ sons who never ran
a race or played a game oi football before entering Oregon
have won athletic fame. There is a place tor everybody in
some University activity, but it remains for the student to set
out for some goal before he will achieve anything in Uni
versity life. . . . ... , n
Every student here at Oregon is equipped with a set ot
tools capable of digging footholds in the climb up the steep
pinnacle of success here in college. Go out for something and
dig. Make yourself known here right at the start as a work
er. Then when an important position is open which needs a
real worker to fill, you will be a candidate for that otlice. It
is the workers who run things at Oregon, and the workers
are happy to be able to do something for their school.
Competition will be keen at Oregon in every activity, but
competition is necessary to bring forth the best qualities ot
the individual. Tt is up to the students of the University to
prove that the fight and fearlessness of the pioneer Oregonians
can be improved when tempered with an education. The boys
suffering the bumps of football practice are daily proving
their mettle. Inconspicuously students are preparing them
selves for a game in which the Competition will he .lust as
fierce as any gridiron battle—the game of life.
Oregon does not like to send its graduates out in the world
to face its varied problems with the apology that “they did
not amount, to anything in college.” If they amount to noth
ing in college, wliait chance have they afterwards ? Be a
success in college, and be prepared to struggle for success
against keener competition after graduation.
The point system was devised so that more students might
he enabled to take part in University activities. There is
a place for you somewhere! Get out for something!
DON’T STEAL FROM YOUR NEIGHBOR.
The circulation plan used for the Emerald this year is dif
ferent from that used in any year previous, hut it is a sys
tem which lias proven successful in many of the larger insti
tutions of the country. Enough Emeralds are delivered to
University residences, which includes all fraternity and sor
ority houses, dormitories and annexes, to allow every member
a copy. Students not living in houses where the Emerald is
delivered have been asked to obtain their copies at the Co-op
store. Yesterday the usual number of Emeralds were left
at the Co-op, hut the .supply lasted only half the morning. The
number left at the Co-op is sufficient to supply every non
fraternity student with a copy. You, who have your Emerald
delivered to you, have been deliberately stealing from your
neighbor who must call for a copy. Is it fair?
Think it over. If your copy is delivered to you, don’t
steal from one who depends on the fairness of yourself for his
copy. Don’t steal from your neighbor.
Homecoming stickers have been placed on sale at the Co
op store. The stickers are in sheets of twelve, each sheet
selling for five cents. Boost Homecoming! Buy your stick
ers now, and stick them on the back of every letter you write!
liain or shine, every student of the University should be
out in the Kincaid field grandstand tonight at 4:15. Unless
Oregon has an united rooting section at every game this year,
our rooting section cannot hope to compete with other insti
tutions of twice tile size of Oregon. In unity there lies l
strength, the strength to help the Varsity win a man-sized
victory. As a student of Oregon, you arc not getting what
you should out of University life if you fail to respond to the
call tor the tirst yell practice*. Kincaid field, promptly at
4:15. Be there! j

PHONE SHORTAGE
HITS miTY
Extra Need Uses Stock of
Wire and Instruments.
For ;i long timt* we have been in the
throes of various kinds of shortages. The
coal, steel, money, paper, skirt, and
time shortages have been here so long
that they iare taken as a matter of
course. Now comes a new variety, the
telephone shortage.
The truth of the matter is that the
Eugene telephone company is out of
phones. The influx of new faculty mem
bers. the addition of a number of new
offices on the ■campus, and a general
spurt of building throughout the city
created such a demand for wire connec
tions that the supply of instruments on
hand was speedily exhausted.
Orders have been placed with the
•manufacturers for a new supply but ac
cording to advices received from them it
will be several months before shipments
can be made. Approximately 150 tele
phones will be needed to remedy the
shortage.
In the meantime the people who have
no phones are compelled to use the mails,
borrow the neighbors’ little boy to carry
a note, or else live in suspense until some
other means of communication has been
made available.
