The Merits of the Ever Present “Drive.”
Year after year, the college campus appears to be the mecca
for solicitation for various money raising campaigns. The “drive”
seems to have become a regular tradition, it is always present, break
ing out intermittantly during the school year and it is always put
up to us that this is a duty none must neglect. Our student loyalty
appears to be the bulwark upon which these drives are built.
Most of the so called “drives” do merit our financial support,
if we are financially able to support them. But there are a number
of things to be taken into consideration before the cry goes out that
Oregon students are not loyal, because they do not support the
“drive.”
A vast majority of students especially of the men, at Oregon
are self-supporting. Figures from the Registrar’s roll show that
more than 800 of the 1100 men enrolled make their way through
school without aid. There is a question as to just what the answer
might be to continual financial solicitation under these conditions.
This year, with the fall term but five weeks old, there have al
ready been three of these fund-soliciting campaigns on the campus.
All three of these campaigns did merit the requests from the stu
dents for financial aid, but this will not be the end. Red Cross
campaigns are carried on, financial aid for students in foreign in
stitutions is solicited each year, and there are others, all in the form
of “drives.”
The Emerald does not believe in the declaration often made by
various campaign managers, that “Oregon students do not show their
loyalty because they did not support this or that drive.” Get that
idea out of existence. Charity begins at home; no student seeks
charity, but there are many who are scraping together every cent
they can to enable them to put up a winning fight when they battle
with life. Bear these facts in mind and handle the “drives” a little
more thoughtfully.
Student enthusiasm cannot put a campaign for funds “over the
top.” It takes hard, cold cash to do that.
QUESTIONNAIRES SENT
ALL COMMERCE MAJORS
Information Received to be Held in
Confidence; Ranges I’rom Place of
Birth to Reasons for Living
The school of business administra
tion, following out its policy of keep
ing tno\k of tin' activities anil scholar
ship of all the students majoring in
this course, has mailed a tpieationaire
to each freshman registered in the
school.
These ipicstionaires when returned
will constitute a short history of the
life of the individual who fills them
out.
The information gained by this
method is to lie used in giving advice
to the student in regard to his college
work, and probably in the selei tion of
a vocation.
Th ■ information given in the answers
is to be held in strict confidence by
the school. The information asked for
deals with such data as the place and
date of birth, names and address of
parents, previous education, previous
teachers, friends, and much other per
sonal material
The i|ue*iiocs a1-' deal with the

Open Forum
To the Editor: May I add a word
to Mr. Siefert’s article on Cyrena Van
Gordon? While Miss Van Gordon is
undoubtedly an excellent singer of a
certain type, her program on Tuesday
evening was a poorly chosen one. In
view of what was substituted for
Cyril Scott’s “Lu'.labv,” its omission
became a crime against art.
Students in a university, students in
this university, certainly have better
taste than our visiting artists credit us
with. With the notable exception of
Matzenauer, we have been dished up a
long succession of mediocre and inane
songs. If “ nrtist course's” are to be
successful on this campus, there must
, be more art and less coarse. To those
I who are at all informed on American
music the programs that we have so
i far had arc little else than libels on
, American music. University students
have the right and should demand that
thev be given songs that speak to them,
i not a mere succession of notes tacked
onto a row of driveling verses. If any
of us had hoped to hear American mu
sic in these concert series, we have been
bv this time disillusioned. The last
four vocal artists on this campus had
not a song from Sidney Homer, noth
ing from Wintter Watts, one single
Hageman song, and worst of all, not
one note of McDowell! For good
American music, and for the German
classics, for Fussian art songs and for

If we are to have artist courses let
us have artiste that can bring us art.
Otherwise let us hire vaudeville singers
who can do what our so-ealled artists
have been doing, in a much more fin
ished and workmanlike manner, not to
say satisfying. May we hope that the ,

OCTOBER “MATRIX” OUT'
_ i
Helpful Hint* for Young Writers in.
Theta Sigma Phi Publications
"Matrix,” the official publication :
of Theta Sigma Phi, women’s national i
journalistic fraternity, has been placed I
on the bulletin board in the journal-j
ism shack for the use of majors in the j
department. This issue of “Matrix” \
is largely devoted to news of the wo
men ’s National Journalistic Register,
Inc., which is the largest single enter
prise of the fraternity.
Young writers will be interested in
the section headed “Literary Markets”
which tells where and how literary
wares can be marketed. The Register
finds a position for any woman in the
journalistic field who applies to it for
service.
Zona Gale, an honorary member of
Theta Sigma Phi, contributed a poem
entitled “The Rose.” “Old Mrs. Pea
body and V. June Hyslop,” by Grace
Edgington, assistant professor of rheto
ric in the University last year, is of
interest to the Oregon student.
