It Has Been Carefully Considered.
The communication in this issue of the Emerald written by the
“younger member of the faculty,” might be summed up as saying
that the students have not considered the question of the Thanks
giving vacation seriously; that they are showing partisanship; that
they, as individuals followed the so called “mob” and signed the
petition ^because they did not want to be “pikers.” The writer of
this communication has been misinformed. The opposite is the case.
The Emerald and well known students have been commended by
prominent members of the faculty for the fair-minded treatment they
have given the question. The Student Council might take exception
to the inference that they have not been fair minded and have lost
sight of the so called “square deal,” a phrase which the writer used
so effectively. A careful analysis of the question was made by the
Student Council before deciding to petition the faculty. The faculty
should bear this in mind when making the final decision.
Here’s An Unbiased Opinion.
Only a hard-hearted faculty would refuse a holiday the
the day following Thanksgiving day. This applies to school
boards, too. Don’t they remember anything?—Portland
Oregonian.
An assembly speaker has been arranged for to discuss the phases
of the Armament conference. Are we as students, going to say after
Thursday, that we do not know anything about the conference?
Remember the slogan, “Home to Meet ’em; Back to Beat ’em,’’!
and write the letter now.
CAN THIS BE “SOUK GRAPES?'*
“The thinner you spread it, the bet
ter it sticks,’’ rends n popular adver
tisement. But Mr. H. A. Slott, a re
cent Physical Instructor at Columbia,
dooH not heed these words of an ex
cellent business firm. The aforemen
tioned person when he reached his new
job at the University of • Oregon, gave
the following interview to the college
paper. “We get a higher type of man
here than we do at Columbia Univer
sity’’ .... Another big difference
in the two institutions is the small
number of unusually fat men, as coin
pared with the large number at Col
umbia and other eastern colleges.”
Since we do aid possess the precise
data concerning the difference in re
muneration between that Mr. Scott
received from Columbia and the amount
he will collect from Oregon, it is dif
ficult to state just how much he is
justified in liis remarks. At any rate
we shall propose his name to the Koval
Order of Handshakers, with the re
commendation that he forsake the
homely art of physical instruction for
the lucrative field of municipal poli
tics.

AFTER THE WASHINGTON GAME:
HOW NOW?
The result of Saturday's contest
confirmed tho opinions of most O. A.
O. folk concerning their team. It
showed them that the college has the
strongest team 4f1i.it undergraduates
have seen, and that alt members of the
si|uad are living up to their program
of “sixty minutes of fight." The
coaches, the trainer and every player
are to be congratulated upon the splen

WE THINK SO TOO
Intramural athletics can never de
velop to a scale that is too broad. They
are the sports of the many. Varsity
athletics, renowned from coast to coast,
are the pastime of a fow—simply be
cause it takes experts to stand the
guff. But the good old interfraternity,
interclub, and intergym class leagues
are the places where exist the “days of
real sport.”—Ohio State Lantern.
HONOLULU JUDGE TO VISIT
Judge Contes, of Hawaii, who is

COMMUNICATION
To The Editor: May I submit the
following which seems a fair view to
take of the controversy regarding the
extra Thanksgiving holiday.
First, it Bust be admitted that to a
large number of students perhaps a
majority the pleasure of the home trip
is indeed considerable and genuine. It
must be admitted that classes on Fri
day after Thanksgiving will be of little
effect especially during the first year
or two of the new ruling. It must be
admitted that a' number of parents
would like to have their sons and
daughters with them on Thanksgiving.
However, there are some very fair and '
logical reasons why it is better not to
have the additional holiday and the
| author wishes to place them before the
student readers of the Emerald for fair
consideration.
It is desired that the student body
do not go home for the Thanksgiving
holiday for several reasons. Classes
on Wednesday will be poorly attended
and little accomplished by those who
do attend, with their minds centered,
j as without doubt they would naturally
be, on the home trip. Lessons on the
Monday following have never been of
much value. Students arrive back late
Sunday evening or on Monday and
come to classes weary and unprepared.
Many students are not in classes at all
on Monday. With the abolishment of
the cut system this unfortunate situa
tion will very likely be worse than in
previous years. Bather than being a
question of one day it is a question of
three days or more.
It is also doubtful whether any con
siderable number of students should
make the expenditure of from ten to
fifty dollars for the short stay at home.
This seems especially true when one
recalls that the Christinas holidays are
but a month later. Many students will
feel compelled to make the expendi
ture to keep up appearances and many
others less fortunate financially will
be bound to stay over, idle and em
barrassed by the situation.
The circulating of a petition should
