California undoubtedly has a won derful team and Stanford also has a quintet of championship caliber. The coast title lies between California, Stanford and Oregon. Oregon wants the title and will fight hard to get it “Beat California” is the slogan of our campus., What would happen if Oregon should win the remaining games of the season is well known. But what would happen if we were to lose? Would! the same old Oregon spirit that this school has always been known for stand up and take the defeat? Or would students settle back into the unsports manlike attitude that generally distinguishes cellar cham pions? The two games this week-end are undoubtedly the big gest basketball games of the year, because so much hinges on the results. The sportsmanship of Oregon rooters during the games last week-end was commendable, but the games were not so important, they were not so close, and the inter est was probably not so intense as it Will be tonight and to morrow night. Oregon spirit is sportsmanlike. It can take a defeat graciously and' it can win honorably. We are out to win to night. But should our varsity be defeated, lets take the de feat as good sportsmen should. Win or lose, Oregon spirit is unbeatable. Since the Emerald has adopted a policy not to print long lists of names of partners for any of the many popular “lottery dances,” it can suggest that the several pages oi names be turned over to the Lemon Punch. Eemmy has some thing like 24 pages, the Emerald but four. The subject mat ter is usually a joke anyway. Once upon a time there was an anti-parking ordinance prohibiting the parking of cars within a certain space on Thirteenth Street in front of the Administration. Now cars are parked freely on both sides ot the street, and1 others whiz by between them. Police! The Bailv Palo Alto refers to Oregon as one of the “cel lar teams.” The Daily Californian ranks Washington as the strongest combination in the northwest. A glance at the conference standings will set the southerners right. Men Needed For Distance Runners and Field Events.

ORIGIN OF CLASS MIX HAS NEW EXPLANATION FroshSoph Tussle Suggested in 1911 as Disciplinary Measure By President Campbell. Some time ago an article appeared in the Kmerald describing the manner in which the tradition of the mutual fresh man-sophomore under-class mix origin ated. Mow it seems that the real origin of the under-class mix was in the fall of 1011 when the junior class, of which Dean Walker was then president, de cided to stage the mix its an attempt to find a suitable substitute for hazing, which was abolished by the faculty that year. The hazing of the freshmen prior to 1011 was done by the sophomores, su pervised by juniors. When hazing was banned by faculty action, everyone was eagerly seeking a substitute. The idea for the under-class mix was first sug gested by ‘President Campbell to Dean Walker early in the fall of the year 1 !>11 The plan was worked out by committees of it ho junior class, and the first under class mix was held that fall with unex pected success. The plan outlined at that time ha been retained practically without change up until the present time. * - * I Announcements | j * -* Vacancies in Mikado Chorus:—Places for one tenor and one bass are open in the Mikado chorus.

WASHINGTON CLUB TO DANCE MONDAY NIGHT First Social Affair of Season Will Be “Get Acquainted Party” At Eagle’s Hall. Complete plans were made for the first dance of the Washington Club, at a meeting held Wednesday evening. This dance, to be held Monday, the 21sf, at Eagle’s hall, will he the debut of the club in social lines. As it will be a “get ae qua in ted party” for Washington stu dents, one of each couple must ho a mem i her of the club, according to the ruling. The question of a conflict with the sophomore lottery, which is being held on the same night, was brought up. but it was decided that no change of date would he made as very few members are affected by the coincidence of dates. It was through a mistake in recording the proposed date for the lottery that this date was secured for the Washington Club dance. The pins of the club will be here the first of next week, and all members who ordered may then secure their pins at Laraway’s for $2. the contract price. All members who failed to be present at the meeting Wednesday evening, are urged by the committee to attend the dance and help make it a big success. Sidney Smith, head of the social com mittee. said that although the punch bowl would be filled with real stuff, it would not be “spiked.” However, it is hoped that no one will let this inter fere with their having a perfect evening.
