STUDENT SENTIMENT.
The athletic council seems to have made a nice botch of
things. They have gone ahead to feel out other coaches. They
have even made offers to other coaches. And their actions
have been done without consulting student opinion. Unless
they proceed cautiously from now on, the athletic council
will be a sad wreck, at whose burial few will mourn.
“Something new and startling to meet the ‘Big Three,’ ’’
is the excuse offered by the council for their actions in at
tempting to secure a big eastern coach like Bezdek or Dobie.
But Bezdek or Dobie will not coach at Oregon next vear;
neither would thev have proven to be a factor which would
materially affect the “Big Three.”
Idle athletic council doesn’t want Dobie. Three members
ol the council arc sai.d to be in California looking up a “sec
ond-rate” coach, which they propose to offer the students of
Oregon. ^Yhy ditch a “lirst-rate” coach for a poorer one
Think of the time it will take to build up an entirely now
coaching system here. “It took Andv Smith five vears,”
reads the petition of the football men.
Clean athletics have been built up at Oregon under the
graduate conch system. Those who scoff at this statement
have but to ask the players and coaches themselves Whv not
continue this policy?
Coach Huntington has done nothing to our knowledge to
deserve such treatfnent as lie has received at the hands of the
athletic douncil. Student, sentiment is forming, and the ath
letic council must take that into consideration before it makes
its next move.
NEW ART STUDIO READY

VISIT TO HADES UNI VE8SITY.
To the Editor:
This is an extract from,the dairy of
my Spirit, June, 1971:
“Ou this, the first dny of June, and
the fourth anniversary of the deatd of
the last man in the world who possessed
actual, bounfide hair on his head. I grew
disgusted with my lodging place and
abruptly left it. Traveling along Space
road I came to an asbestos stairway and
descended. 1 observed in my descent
that many people had carved their ititiftls
along the walls and I found amongst
them the names of many of ray friondft,
and occasionally such a phrase as this:
‘E. J. II.,—atn waiting for you.” As I
went farther it. became increasingly
warmer and I divested myself of my
.spiritual garments, one by one, until, on
reaching what appeared to be the lowest
level, I was garbed in nothing more sub
stantial than a few callouses on my in
dex fingers. I was at a loss for a
moment, then stopped a passing pedes
trian who carried a large scoop-shovel
over his shoulder and appeared to he in
a hurry. ‘Huh?’ said lie in response to
my query. ‘Oh. You want to go to the
quartermaster's first and get your
equipment, then to the Ad. building to
register — straight down Lucifer street
four blocks, and over two. You can’t
miss it. You’ll hear the slenog’s talking
a block away. Mobhe you can hear a
typewriter clatter occasionally ton. I
dunno. They say they do run once in a
while. Never heard ’em myself. You’re
entirely welcome. ’Sense me, must hurry
off to my ten o’clock.’ ”
I was issued my wardrobe, consisting
of one pair of red tights, a sulfur-green
cap, one stable lantern, and a detachable
tail, for dress occasions only. Then 1
unde my way to the Ad. building. There
was a spacious hall surrounded by of
fices, and a series of numbered windows.
In front of each window was a long line
of people. I joiued the line leading to

you going to expose yourself to?" was
his query.
“Guess I’U major iu Sulfur." I an
swered.
He held up a warning hand. "Don't
do it. don't do it. You’ll make the mis
take of your life. Old Prof. B. Zel Bubb
teaches it — makes you take notes —
weekly quizzes — rotten marks. Stay
away, a-way."
“Thanks,” 1 said gratefully. “How
about Brimstone mineralogy?"
He shook his head decisively. "Punk.

“But thp catalogue says it is a fine
course,” I gulped, bolding up the "List
of Courses for the Nether World Col
lege.” My friend favored the outstretch
ed volume with a disinterested stare.
“Unhunh,” he said. “That’s the year’s
best seller in the line of fiction.”
“My goodness, what shall I take?"
“Well—lessee—there's a swell course
j in Diabolical Dancing—full of classy
looking dames too. Then Jazz Appro*

After two hours or so I reached win

' About a week later I managed to se

reading: "Furnace stoking compulsory

"That.” said I to the multitudes, “is

shoulder, “can go to the devil."

Son of Noted Russian Author
to Address Forum.
Count Ilya Tolstoy, Russian writer,
son of the famous Russian novelist and
philosopher, Leo Tolstoy, will give his
address “Reminiscences of My Father,”
at Villard hall Wednesday evening at 8
o’clock. He has been brought here
through the efforts of the University
Forum.
Count Tolstoy delivered a speech at
O. A. C. last Wednesday, and more than
4000 townspeople and college students
turned out to hear him.
During the course of his address at
the agricultural college. Count Tolstoy
described prevailing conditions in Rus
sia. He stated that the one great ac
complishment of the bolsheviki was that
of printing money.
That the ultimate Ideal of tlie bolshev
iki was commendable, was the belief ex
pressed by the Count. However, their
methods of reaching that goal was noth
ing short of criminal he said. He de
clared that in order to fight bolshevism
the American people must be thoroughly
educated. He further stated that: the
land question in Russia was serious, and
TWENTY-TWO LETTER
MENr SIGN PETITION
(Continued from Page 1)
Huntington has won a northwest (.ham',
pionship and a Pacific coast champion
ship during his three years of coaching
at this institution. It took Hugo Bezdek
four years and Andy Smith five years to
produce championship teams.
“We ask in despair what the disgrunt
led members of the Athletic Council de
sire? Two championships in three years
is an excellent record, and it would be a
mark of the rankest ingratitude and
poorest sportsmanship for these disgrunt
led and envious members to agitate for a
new coach.
“We also would like to remind the
athletic council that if a new coach is
secured, that it is not at. all founded that
the coach would either be with, or with
out many of his prospects for next year.
“We, the undersigned, wish to declare
that we have signed the petition on our
initiative, without any suggestions from
anyone. Once, more we wish to state
that we believe that any man, who has
made good as eminently as ‘Shy’ Hunt
ington has. should he retained without
discussion.” The signatures of the 22
men followed.

primitive conditions of life.
