To those who made the most imposing edifice on t'he Oregon campus possible, Oregon has set aside this day. Perhaps to Mrs. Irene H. Gerlinger, more than any other person, is due the credit for the Women’s building. To her all homage is due. As a member of the Board of Regents of the University, but most of all as a woman, Mrs. Gerlinger realized the need for such a structure on the Oregon campus, and her successful efforts to gather contributions among friends througliout the state is responsible for the completed building which will be dedicated today. To the generous press of the state, who co-operated with the fund for the building by giving unrewardable advertising to the cause, to the legislatures of 1919,1920 and* 1921, wfho con tributed generously to the fund by appropriations, to the tax payers of the state who made these appropriations possible, and, above all, to the countless friends, students and alumni of the University who made the building possible by contribu tions large and small, this day is dedicated. .“,To djo something definite for the women students of the University of’Oregon,” was the commission given to Mrs. Ger linger'seven years ago by Oswald West, then governor of Ore p*oin. The Women’s building stands today as the “definite sometjhing” which Mrs. Gerlinger, through her efforts, has made possible. Yesterday the varsity, looked like a real baseball team. Beating the Sun Dodgers is something to boast about. Bolder seems to have at last found a. combination that knows baseball and can play it. Now let’s make a fight for victories. Tomorrow is Mothers’ Day all over the country, and the University is to be hosts to many of them today. The mothers are our best friends. The best is none too good for them.

Evils of School System Mercilessly Scored. Editor: (Exclusive interview granted to Emerald representative. This is the only authentic statement made by AVhoos us for publication, which shows that the Emerald is foremost in gathering news of importance.) j I managed to see AA’hoosus today. ! Seeing AVhoosus is about as hard a job as putting a crease in a pair of tweed pants. The thing is seldom done. I went to the great man’s office and found his campaign manager munching pret zels and read that great political dope sheet, “Uncle Harry's Dud.” “I’m from the Emerald,” I wheezed after climbing the three flights of stairs. “And I nepresent two thousand eager, expectant souls who desire to know something about AVhoosus, everything about AA’hoosus, the veriest details about Whoosus, from dandruff to tubular shoe laces.” “Candidate AVhoosus is out,” said the campaign manger, with a knowing leer. "Out of what?” asks I. “Nit,” returns the C. M., “don’t get funny. He’s on the trail of political boss E. Normus Pull, who controls the vote of the deni zens of certain groups, who live in clans, and houses.” I rushed out and careened wildly down the boulevard after AVhoosus, who was after boss Pull, who in turn was after something to eat. The race waf^ long and strenuous. Finally I brought up in front of a cafe and saw Whoosus and Pull seated inside, in a fair corner, whis pering furtively to each other? T hur ried over to them. “I,” I gasped in short pants, “am from the Emerald and I want information. Now, first of all. Mr. AVhoosus, what was your father’s middle initial?” “I have nothing to say for publication,” said. AA’hoosus, drawing himself up haughtily. “Thanks,” says I taking down the facts. “The people want to know just such human interest stuff about the great men who are before the public today. Now Mr. AVhoosus is it true that six times three, divided by four, plus the coefficient of Underwood’s phony in minor would equal the square on the hypotenuse of Einstein’s theory?” “Undoubtedly,” returned AA’hoosus. warming to his subject and stirring his coffee vigorously with a pie fork. “De lightful human qualities,” I murmured estatieally, making a note of it. “Now Air. AA’hoosus, just what is your opinion of professors?” “Careful,” interrupted Pull, “remember you are talking for publication.” "II elected, commenced \\ hoosus, in a deep sonorous voice, resembling; noth ing so much as a truck horse sneezing— “Careful,” adjures Full once more. “If elected.” continues the candidate. “I would to the best of my ability perform 'the duties inherent in the office. I am deeply sensible of the great honor con ferred on me thus far. There is a cry ing need for men of high caliber, who have the ability to labor diligently, who have personalities that will lead the school to glory and rectitude.” Whoosus stop ped suddenly, moved by his emotions. “Of course. 1 am not saying I possess these qualifications in the highest de gree yet. I firmly believe,” ho added generously, “that 1 more fully understand the problems of the office, and^pm more able to cope with them than any other man in the field. Not out of egotism do I say this, but only after a long and im partial survey of my own nature.” “What do you think your chances are for election?” I inquired meekly. “We will be swept into office by an overwhelming majority,” he stoutly as severated. “Yes, you may quote me as saying it will be a walk away.” E. Normus Full looked at me severely and gulped down a vicious thimblefull of lemon coke. He is a bad, bold man, this political boss, who holds in his hands the destinies of so many candidates. It. is rumored that he expects to swing the election by the combined fifty votes of two prominent organizations on the campus. ( Watch for the daring expose coming shortly.) —E. .1. II.
