Other opinions to the contrary, it can be taken for grant ed that d'ances at the University of Oregon are no worse than dances at similar institutions throughout the country. Nei ther are they any better. But those who would reform danc ing at Oregon had better start a nation-wide movement, for the faults apparent here are also in evidence at collegiate so cial functions everywhere. There is a general tendency to hold the college student more closely to the line than those persons who attend public affairs. College students are not allowed greater laxity at dances than others, contrary to general opinion. Faculty con trol and the general overseeing by his own classmates leads the student to watch his dancing carefully lest it bring rebuke upon him. These influences more than counteract parental control and the influence of the home, for at most college dances, the faculty act as patrons, and students who ridicule tne “flashy ’ dancer are always present. ' The age of the average college student is the age when dancing has its greatest appeal. It is not to be wondered at that students like to attend dances; it is in many ways the best amusement he can obtain. It is but natural that the stu dent should enjoy dancing, and that to enjoy it he should seek to improve his own steps and to learn new ones. There is something In rhythm and graceful motion that is appealing, and it is because of that appeal that the college student likes to dance. Holding one’s partner some distance away prevents graceful dancing, and any movement towards that end is not likely to find ardent followers. , Such things as|the “camel-walk,” “toddle,” “shimmy,” and! “cheek-to-cheek” should not, of course be permitted at a college dance. Usually, however, faculty interference is not necessary to stop such dancing; the student who introduces such things at college dances usually finds the sentiment of his classmates strongly against such dances. Anywhere, how ever, there will be found students who persist in continuing the practice of dancing such steps. Dancing is a healthful recreation, if not carried to any extreme. It provides social training for the participant. It adds grace. It is democratic. It has many advantages, and will continue to be the chief diversion for a public which would rather partipate than play spectator or audience. STADIUM TO BE PLANNED. Illinois students in the architectural courses will have a big share in develop ing plans for the new stadium. Stadium officials believe that Illinois talent should be used in building the stadium and for that . reason student architects will be given every encouragement.
