Let’s Roll Our Own
Pride in one’s university is a very glorious thing. The American
college tradition, founded as far back as the eighteenth century
which saw Yale and Harvard proud even as today, has grown until
the graduate of each small fresh water college from Indiana to Neva
da shouts to the skies the merits of his alma mater. Loyalty is a trait
born into the human animal. It is appropriate that it should attach
itself to the college or university where four or more of the most im
pressionable years, four of the years in the life of a man or a woman
whene he or she is most richly responsive and most finely aware, are
passed.
True it is that there seems sometimes a certain laughable quality,
detected especially by graduates of the nation’s larger institutions, to
attach itself to men from Umpa college in Iowa or others from Bumpa
college in Texas in whose eyes those very slight educational oasis
shine in glory that grows even brighter in retrospect. Senior honor
society election at Bumpa is quite as important to the loyal Bumpa
man as any Bones election ever was to a Yale man. And it should be
so; it is in keeping witli our American college tradition which The
Emerald believes to be very fine in its fundamentals. i
And too, it makes not very much difference to the Bumpa man
whether his senior honor society or his sophomore honor group is
modeled after organizations at Umpa or at Yale. It makes less differ
ence to him, it should make less difference to him, whether either of
these outfits is affiliated with one at Umpa or at Yale, whether the bit
of gold and enamel which it pins upon his vest front resembles that
worn anywhere else. Wlmt should count and what does count is
that in many college generations past Bumpa seniors and Bumpa
sophomores have been taken into these groups and worn those bits
of brass and enamel and gloried in them, that many of these men have
gone out into the world and have done things and have come back
to Bumpa and talked about the “good old days.” In one word, it
is tradition that counts, nothing else.
We at Oregon are interested in Washington and California and
sometimes in (). A. We should he. We meet them in athletics; we
are kindred educational plants; we have ties in certain social groups
at these other schools. There lie the large interests; The Emerald can
see no more and it believes that there it all stops and it believes
too that Oregon should pride itself in its own traditions, that it
should attempt to dearly preserve the old ones and create new
ones only as they serve Oregon’s own particular needs and only
as they advance her distinction and not reduce it to a level with
ot hers.
There is a tendency in state institutions—the others value too
much their own traditions to consider tampering with them—to
make one continuous chain ot deadly similar colleges and uni
versities. to standardize, as it were. The Emerald deplores this
tendency. I he Emerald would like to see Oregon continue to
create its own institutions and to maintain them. Let Washington
go its way. let California go hers. We are neither California nor
Washington, nor Vale, nor Harvard. But we are Oregon ami
Oregon has graduated many hundreds of men and women who
dearliy love its traditions, who surely desire to see Oregon keep
her own distinctive, whatever it is that makes her beloved by them,
and The Emerald feels sure that they would look not a little askance
at the prevalent tendency to nationalize everything worthy to bear
a name and distribute a vest decoration.
I hi Mu Alpha and Mu I’hi Epsilon by their concerts yesterday and
by past performances have very surely established their places on
ihe Oregon campus. To develop talents is commendable; to share
them doubly so. Announce a Mu t»hi and a l’hi Mu assembly and
everybody turns out. There's a reason.

FAIRBANKS STARTS WORK
AGAIN ON ‘THE DOUGHBOY’
Sculptor Has Been Working on Figure
for Months and Expects to Send
Plaster Cast East in May
Avard Fairbanks, professor of sculp
ture in the school of architecture and
allied arts, has begun work on “The
Doughboy” again and is making a plas
ter cast of the figure, from which the
mold for the final cast will be chiseled
for the bronze casting in New York.
Mr. Fairbanks expects to complete the
plaster cast this month and will send it
east after the final .jury day in the
school of architecture and allied arts,
May L’<).
“The Doughboy” lias been in the
process of modeling for a number of
months and represents the typical
American overseas man during the re
cent war. As Mr. Fairbanks presents
him he has just repelled one onslaught
and stands prepared to meet another on
the battlefield. According to some of
the greatest sculptors in the country,
the work is a remarkably lifelike and
representative figure.

less keen, is nevertheless on a higher
plane than ever before, said Bartholo
mew.
Student Move Favored
Speaking of the student movement
throughout the United States. Bartholo
mew said, “This impulse for cooperation
between the two larger state institu
tions seems to be only a part of the 1
unifying spirit which has grown up
among the schools of the Pacific coast,
exemplified by the Pacific Association
of Student Body Presidents, and the
Pacific Intercollegiate Press associa
tion. The movement is indeed national,
as we have only recently found from
a little bulletin on our desk which tells
of a Middle Western Student Officers’
association desiring the cooperation
of the Pacific Coast association. The
Middle Western association is meeting
in Kentucky this year."
