THE BIGGEST HOMECOMING
The biggest Homecoming in history is over. From the
monster rally and parade of Friday night until the farewell
open house of Sunday afternoon, everything went off smooth
ly and lively, and it is doubtful if a single old grad left the
campus feeling that old Oregon was anything but what it
should be.
The good old spirit was there, too. Oregon won a clean
cut, decisive victory from Washington, making the third
straight victory for Oregon over the Sun Dodgers, and there
by preserving two Oregon traditions that may become famous:
Oregon has never lost a Homecoming game, and it has never
been defeated on Hayward field.
A faculty' committee has prepared a statement compli
menting the "students on the manner in which the week-end
was handled. This statement, voices the opinion of the fac-1
hlty, but it also voices the opinion of the alumni and others
who were guests of Oregon over the week-end. Oregon hos
pitality is a tradition, and it has become a tradition that
ijieana as much to us as our older and more famous ones.
The Emerald wishes to concur with the faculty commit
tee which thanked the students. Almost every one of us had
more or less to do with arranging for the week-end, and some
of ns spent a great deal of time and care. But another loyral
group of Oregon supporters who must not be forgotten are
the business men and other townspeople of Eugene. It was
largely because of them that the rally was such a big suc
cess; it was largely because of them that Oregon held to its
tradition of hospitality; it was largely because of them that
the Oregon spirit was able to make such a splendid showing
alt the game itself.
Visitors on the Oregon campus from other schools voiced
the sentiment of all of us when they said that Eugene was the
best college town in the west. So, while complimenting our
selves for' the success of Homecoming, let us not forget that
large loyal group of Eugene citizens who have helped, so much
to make the University of Oregon what it is today. Eugene
18 the best college town in the west, and the students of Ore
gon certainly appreciate the active interest taken in the Uni
versity hv the business men and other townspeople of Eugene.
Next Saturday tho”campuU”s 1 ion 1 d resemble something
that isn’t. Oregon plays 0. A. 0. at Corvallis, and everv stu
dent should make arrangements now Hint will permit him to
attend. A rooting section of fifteen hundred scats has been
reserved for Oregon in the Corvallis stadium, which means
that it will take almost every student to fill it. Start saving
your nickels and dimes now, and hoard the special for Cor
vallis Saturday.

! The Campus Cynic i j
STUDYING AS A FINE ART.
To the.Editor. It is revealed to me!
that there is a deplorable lack of knowl- j
edge in this University as to the proper .
method of studying. Studying is of i
course a fine art like any of the other
arts. 1 once knew a youth who pursued a
course of learning for four years, but
never epufe caught ’t. In that time he
opened .us books on the average of once
a week, came to class just often enough
to keep his face familiar to the instruct
or, and was never known to receive a
grade of over fifty per cent.. At the
end of four years be was graduated with I
honors — the entire faculty echoing the
sentiment that school bold nothing more
for him. The principal bndo; hi n good
bye'in forceful terms. That fe.low was
a genius. Most of us iiowevw must
continue to regard studying an occupa
tion to be followed at. intervals and
with much traviul of soul.
The purpose of studying is of course
to surprise the instructors. This is
axiomatic. Possibly it accounts for the
reason there is not more studying done.
If it were a regular habit it would got
horribly monotonous for the instructors
Who would be compelled to face classes
each morning who actually knew what
they were talking about and insisted on
talking. The possible consequences are
too horrible to contemplate. In their
eagerness quarreling might arise be
tween students desiring the floor at the
same time; they might come .to blows,
hair-pulling — riot might ensue, blood
shed result. No! A thousand times no.
It were better that the old order pre
vail, that happy condition in which a
lesson learned brings a self-conscious
glow of rectitude, and relieves one of
all mental' obligations for the remainder
of the week.
In lieu of studying there is but one re
hab) e substitute — conversation. When
the instructor designates one of the
class as “It” the thing to do is to talk.
That is unless the one big “it” actually
knows the answer, • which is somewhat
foreign to our discussion. We arc dis
cussing normalities now. By talking 1
do not mean the clumsy, stuttering ef
fort made to elucidate principles, or
facts in their cold glamorless Term. I
mean that happy condition in which the
temperature of the room is about right
and the flow of words eorae smoothly
and possibilities of unlimited journeying
into the quiet, byways of the topic is
possible.
This is the ideal condition for mak
ing conversation. The words should be
loug, smooth and undulating! They
should be capable of infinite expansion
and dual meaning, resembling a party
platform in this respect, and above all
they should be so spaced in the mouth
as to produce harmonious nuances in
the class room. The entire art of con
