Downtown or rice—izuu IN REPLY TO THE BAROMETER, The Barometer, O. A. C.’s student publication, is quite sus ceptible to the long-range fluctuations of the somletimes un controllable Oregon Spirit. An editorial in a recent number of the publication of our sister institution, reprinted m an other column of this issue of the Emerald, declares that the standard of courtesy shown here at Oregon is inconceivable. Our worthy contemporary has imposed upon Oregon a “boast ed: culture,” and then ruthlessly stripped the University ot that culture, leaving us, in the eyes of the Barometer’s many readers, devoid of gentlemanly and sportsmanlike prin ciples. , ■ . The iconoclastic editorial referred to was written m con demnation of the reception given to a group of 0. A. C. letter men who visited Eugene to witness the Oregon-Multnomah game. In apologizing for this spirit of rivalry unwisely dis played on the spur of-tlie moment, the Emerald begs for a word of explanation. The Barometer accuses the Oregon robtera Unjustly. True, the men students sang the little ditty referred tain a manner so vividly worded ip the objurga tory editorial, hut they sang it with smiles and intermingled (.Tighter; true, the band failed t-b finish the 0. A. 0- song, hut if the person who carried the word back to the Barometer edi torial sanctum were a student of crowd psychology lie would read in those performances not malice, not hatred, not an ab sence of “boasted culture” hut just humor unwisely ex pressed. But the Barometer does not even remotely refer to an ex tenuating circumstance which, in the opinion of the Emerald, nieasureably alleviated tlie previous wrongs. The Barometer does not tell its readers that the students of the institution at Eugene, which “turns out polished ladies and gentlemen,.” gave 0. A. 0. a yell, a. sincere sportsmanlike yell which part ly atoned for the previous misinterpreted humor. Nevertheless, such action on the part of Oregon students is to be condemned. Although w»> do not. “boast of our cul ture” we should demonstrate to publications which judge the culture of an institution by the actions of its students at a football game, that we do receive culture at Oregon. The students of the University sincerely apologize to the highly-offended Barometer for the unpremeditated outburst of spirit. But the editorial referred to might have caused more unfriendly feeling among new students who do not un derstand the friendly rivalry existing between tlu* two great state institutions than a hundred such trivial displays of un wise rooting. The Emerald assures the Barometer that inhospitable root ing and booing of 0. A,. (’. men who attend Oregon games will not happen again. A friendly rivalry between Oregon and 0. A. 0. is necessary, hut some other means must In* found to foster such a spirit. Contemporaries ★ i — i | Current Thoughts Of Various | | College Editors. -----* U. of 0. CULTURE. ' (O. A. C. Barometer.) to view of the supposed culture of our sister institution ut Eugene, it is difficult for u student of (>. A. ('. to con trive of the standard of courtesy set. up at the university, as shown by the way it treats its visitors. In the popular mind the university is supposed to turn out polished ladies and gentlemen, while the college tends more to the practical. In actual practice, however, such does not seem to be the ease. The only wuv of judging the extent (of culture in any institution is by the action of its students. Examples of typical Ore gon spirit in this regard are too numer ous to mention. Let a few recent ones suffice. Last Saturday a number of O. A. C. students, including several letter men. went over to Eugene to see the university play Multnomah. Epon (heir arrival the crowd sang r. song, the prin cipal refrain of which ran “To hell with O. A. This hospitable reception was greatly appreciated. It helps to ward n friendly feeling between the two institutions. Following this the band started to play an O. A. C. song, but after a few measures burst forth into one grand discord. It is hard to reconcile such action with the university’s boasted culture. We at O. A. may be trained among the cattle and chickens, but we are trained to be courteous to our guests. We have been taught that terming vis itors ‘'cattle” was not the essence of hospitality. We must not now lower our standard by dealing iu the t\ of O. method. Tf Oregon men are present at the game to morrow. they will bo treated as guests. Perhaps an object lesson will do some good.

One of the regulations of the Student laving Committee is that no new clubs or fraternitie shall be formed in the University unless they have first the approval of this committee. The object of this rule, is not to cur tail the formation of clubs, particularly, but to give them such sound advice that they may be founded along lines which will make for permanence and strong or ganization. The committee has accumu lated information of many sorts which would be very useful to a group which expects to run a house and to equip it or furnish it as living quarters. The committee has also some experi ence in the matter of leases and is able and willing to help protect a new group in their relations to the landlord. The committee will also lie able to furnish estimates for the year's budget and in many other ways is prepared to aid and assist a new group. Yours very truly, JOHN F. BO YARD, Chairman Student Living Committee. WANTED—A GOOD MAN: One not afraid of work or afraid to talk; solicit University students during spuro hours.
