BACK THE VARSITY.
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.

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

partners. Interesting mathematics!
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.

Rapidly to Students.
There are only two or three days
i more for the men of the University to
; avail themselves of the opportunity to
; buy one or more of the collection of
i hooks at the “Y” hut on boys’ work,
( Christian living, and sexual teaching.
These books are sent to the various col
lege Y. Mi C. A.’s O. A. C. gets the
collection next but will not get very
many at the rate they have been selling.
This is not a money making scheme as
, the “Y” does not make a penny on the
! sales. The purpose is to enable the men
| to inspect and buy the books that are
i really valuable and interesting, but not
| handled in most book stores. The books
j are still selling at the old price which is
I about twenty-five per cent under the
| new catalog quotations.
| Some of the representative titles are:
Tlural Problems of Today, Law of Social
1 Justice. Sex' and Life. Moral Sanitation,
and Democratic Movement in Asia.
“SHIMMY” DANCES REINSTATED.
The shimmy and the toddle are rein
stated at Northwestern University. The
rule against them drove undergraduates
jto outside dances. The faculty wants the
students back where they can watch their
steps.

than men at the University of Wlscon
