A Code and the Undesirables
Bill Hayward, trick coach and trainer, caused a stir in assembly
when he declared that he would gladly quit if he could not turn out
winning track teams from Oregon provided he were given proper
Bupport. Every coach and trainer is entitled to a square deal. We
all like the words “square deal” and “playing fair”—and the stu
dents who are quick to criticize should insist upon a square deal.
As was pointed out in the last issue of The Emerald, some faculty
members have not gone about the matter of giving out monthly
grades with a proper sense of fairness.
The men of Oregon are confronted with the same principle in
complaining that Oregon does not win its share of track and field
meets,—when they are not putting their own individual efforts into
the work. Oregon can win track and field meets. Under the tute
lage af Bill Hayward, Oregon has won many,—but those were the
days when the school was small; when Oregon Spirit was rife in all
parts of campus life; when everyone said “Hello!” in the spirit of
friendliness without the forced expression.
Hayward has laid his cards on the table. He has faced the issue (
fairly and squarely and when he says he will quit if he can’t produce |
the team, he means it,—but he has got to be given a square deal.
The cards must not be stacked against him, and every able-bodied
man in the University who can possibly do so, should turn out on
the track and give Bill a square deal. Forgetting even for a moment
the obligation to the alma mater, why not let the sense of fairness
predominate 1
An honor system in athletics cannot succeed whfcn the lust for
victory overshadows the pure love of the sport. Here at Oregon
we pride ourselves that an honor system among athletes does exist,—
that no so-called “hangers en” are kept here by a plentiful supply
of “soft jobs.” And thence we are thrown face to face with our;
own responsibility; success must come from such a plan in the end j
but it cannot come without the full realization of what the responsi- j
bility is,—the utmost cooperation from every student who enters the
University is demanded.
A “code” is suggested as the best means by which an honor sys
tem can succeed. A “code” then should be used in this emergency,—
an unwritten law, which scorns the “lounge lizard” who cannot
devote any time to his alma mater for which he does not receive com
pensation in full. A student of that type is not desirable to any
university, to any fraternity, and above all he is not desirable to any
democracy.
The Present Shortcomings
Evidently recognizing the need for iinmediate relief in the present!
system of payment of laboratory fees, the faculty colloquium has
appointed a committee to investigate a flat rate system of payment.
The merits of a flat rate fee are unknown but the action of the
faculty in recognizing the present unsatisfactory system of the col
lection of lab fees is commendable.
The idea of bettering a number of present conditions by the fac
ulty members who have the power to have their theories enforced, i
is far better than planning for emergencies which may arise in the \
future, but which are not yet of vital concern,—as for instance the ’
recent attempt to install a plan of Saturday classes.
Students who cannot find the time to attend the meetings of the i
A. S. 11. (.)., when these meetings come but once in a term, are hardly 1
ready to take over the responsibility of self-government. Perhaps, '
however, they were cognizant of the fact that the dull monotony of ,
a dingy stage had not been broken by any sense of the artistic which '■
might prompt the placing of even a vase with flowers in one corner; \
or the far from pleasant sensation of the back breaking process re 5
quired to sit in a folding chair or on a bench for sixty minutes. An- ]
other plea for the facilities needed at student assemblies. 1
The reasons for the Orchestra being a self-supporting activity are
now plainly obvious. Their commendable concert of last night ^
ranked as one of the leading iuusicales of the year. And the price
was within the reach of all. . \c
More self-supporting organizations are needed on the campus,— 0
or possibly fewer organizations if that cannot be accomplished.

GYM FINALS MARCH 15
SCORE OF OVER 60 POINTS MUST
BE MADE FOR GRADE
Bar Vault, Four Lap Run, Swimming
Posture, Proficiency and
Effort to be Judged
Final exams for the freshmen and
sophomore men’s physical education
classes are to begin March 15. Points
will be given in the bar vault, four
lap run and swimming for posture, ef
fort and proficiency. The highest pos
sible score is 100 points and can be
made by bar vaulting 5 ft. 8 in., whicn
will give 16 points; running four laps
on the upper track in 51 or 52 seconds,
giving 16 points; swimming three laps
on the stomach and one on the back,
giving 18 points; and having developed
a good postnre, giving 50 points. A
scoro below 60 points is good for a
flunk. Men who have already passod
the swimming tost will not need to
take it again.
H. A. Scott, head of the physical edu
cation department, in explaining the
plan of next year’s classes, stated that
the system established this year will
have been used long enough to allow
'lie sophomores of 1922-23 to select thoir
qiort for one term and receive spec
ialized training in it. A different sport
will be elected for each of the three
terms and an examination of advanced
standards will be required to be passed.
The plan for the incoming freshman
class will remain the same as now,
which is that during the first term
mch class is devoted in turn to a par
ticular exorcise or sport; during the
second term, each week is devoted, and
n the third term, every two weeks
rhis plan gives the student an oppor
tunity to become acquainted with all
the sports and puts him in a position
to know what ho wants in his sopho
nore year.
During tho present year, the two
inderclasses have been conducted on
the same plan because last year’s fresli
non did not have to pass the present
•equirements.
For the upper classmen the main plan
will be to got men out for doughnut
iports. Gym clussos will also be open
o them and the tank, handball courts
ind wrestling room will be available.
Mr. Scott reports that about two
luudrod men passed the physical ability
test during the present term. The
est will be offered again after the
>egilining of tho spring term.
About ten men have failed to re
novo incompletes which they received
n gymnasium last term. To remove
hem they should report to Mr. Scott,
vho will tell them what is necessary, i

Walking on the Grass
To the editor:
Mention was made in assembly about
walking on the grass along the paths.
This could be easily remedied by a lit
tle care on the part of the students.
To attempt to pass a group of three or
four who have arms so interlocked that
they can not untangle to let one pass
necessitates walking on the grass. This
is also the case when some ultra-atten
tive gallant must needs stop on an al
ready crowded path and visit his dam
sel so that the persons essaying to make
the distance from Deady to the Music
building are crowded off of the path.
If we were more considerate and ob
served the “keep to the right” cus
tom the edges of the paths would not
look ragged.
