You fellows who have been bemoaning the lack of Ore gon Spirit during basketball season— This afternoon at 1:50, the varsity tossers leave for Cor vallis ' - play 0. A. C. a two-game series. It is probably the last time they leave the campus for conference games. They will meet a fighting team at Corvallis and they need the sup port of Oregon students. How about a little send-off at the dfepot about train time ? O. A. C. had a thousand students at the train last, week ^ben their basketball team returned from California with not a'win to their credit. Oregon’s varsity didn’t return from, tjheir northern trip in a body, so such a demonstration was impossible. But Oregon has a fighting team, a team that will fight the Aggies till the final whistle. That team has a fight ing' chance to top both conferences. On the 0. A. C. games depends a great deal. Show that team that we are behind them! ; Fifty seats have been reserved for Oregon rooters at Cor vallis Friday night, and a hundred more for Saturday night. A big crowd will be over there. Those who will be unable to go, and some of those who will, can back that teaf by giving them a real Oregon send-off this afternoon. Beat the Ag giesl Be at the depot at 1:50 this afternoon! Blame it on the women! When you call on one of the sis ters. they all rush and greet you like a rich uncle with one Hoof in the grave. But on the campus—the pioneer hands out a warmer greeting. At that there’s nothing wrong with the Oregon "hello”. AU one has to do is to say it. ★*—— -----* I Communications I ■ -.—.—-* LA BELLE DANCE. To the Editor: At last, the dance, that great. Univer sity problem, is to be reformed and up lifted above the level of the common herd by introducing the West Points system of dancing. What a relief this is to stu dents who have been worried because their style of dancing was the same as that at any other university or college on the coast. However, in sponsoring (his particu lar'type of dancing, the* powers that bo ^Overlooked several minor matters which irthould be brought, to their attention, Tn the first plane they will find it necessary to change not only the position and clinch ,uked but also the music. The mazurka I FLOWE US can either in dulge in quiet sym pathy or iu eloquent pleading and they obey , faithfully the wishes of the donor. Flowers are always appropos to the occasion.

This idea of the man's arm around the lady’s waist presents another interest ing phase. Any good dancer who has • had five or six years experience in the art can give interesting testimony to the effect that this is the most awkward hold ever invented. The idea that SOME of the University /dancing needs to be reformed is prob ably all right. Just as vulgar dancing should be reformed anywhere, if it is such. But why, hitting the few people who may have a particularly bad form of dancing, do the aforementioned pow ers that be, try to introduce an entirely new form of dancing? University stu dents do not want to dance a la West Point, but they might be interested in a dancing reform if introduced in the right way. A hint to the wise is sufficient. ONE OF THE COMMON HERD.
