Abbott has appointed committees, and plans are well under way to make the affair the most successful in history. More alumni have written saying that they will return to watch the varsity battle Ihe Cougars on November 11, than ever before. But the committees and the general chairman cannot do all the planning and all of the work and if Homecoming is to be put across it must become the concern of every member of the student body. In the three weeks which remain’every graduate of this institution and every former student must be urged to come home. Letters have been sent out by the alumni organization, but those which are most effec tive are personal letters. Write to all of the alumni you know and tell them that the University wants them on November 11. With every Homecoming comes the necessity for greater organi zation and more efficiency. Every Homecoming has been larger than the last. If we are to keep our alumni interested in the University we must bring them back every year and must show them that they really are welcome and that we don’t forget them as soon as they receive their diplomas. There will be more activities this year than ever before. There will be more work to be done. Let’s start in piglit now to put it (tver big! Can t We Keep Him? It is with extreme regret that The Emerald learns that Professor Wilkie Nelson Collins does not plan to remain at the University after this term. 11 is work in the English department has been exceptional and students who have become associated with him will be sorry to see him leave. Professor Collins is the type of instructor which excites the admir ation of the average student . With a wide background of reading, he makes his lectures interesting and sparkling, lie thinks in big ideas and he knows how to convey his ideas to his students. 11 is class dis cussions are never commonplace and the members seem to go away with a feeling of freshness. If anything can be done to keep Professor Collins, it should be done. COMMUNICATION "THE PIONEER” IS SUGGESTED Tl»o I alitor of t In* Kim raid: I was gratified to read your editorial endorsing the sug^ed ion that wo shoulil adopt a name for our athletic and other teams.

New Arrival Learns English From Sisters Down in the wilds of Nicaragua, where the good get bad and the bad get1 1 worse, Pollyarina shrieked and gurgled | ! from the tojr of a bamboo tree or hurled vile epithets in Castillian whenever some Nicaraguan brigand happened by. 1 her neck of the woods. In her native haunts Pollyanna ruffl ed her yellow and green plumage and thought very little of a college educa tion. In fact she knew very little about the college curriculum. The bamboo tree no longer knows the I benign presence of Pollyanna, for the bird hath flown and in pursuit of high- j er education and she picked the place where the standards are high so that she may perch upon them, i To make the story short Pollyanna is among us and she is domiciled at j Alpha Belt house on the hill. The sorority sisters are trying to teach Pol lyanna the rudiments of English, but every now and then when her ham and eggs are cold Pollyanna reverts to her native tongue, Espanol, and says naughty things about the chefs in the land of high learning. The wearers of the green derby note: When passing the house on the hill look sharp. If you see Pollyanna swinging on her perch on the sun porch, remem ber that she is the incarnation of the Oregon spirit, for her colors are the ; lemon-yellow. Salute her, freshmen, land ask her if she would partake of a 1 soda. If she breaks out in Castillian profanity, shrivel up and die away in l ho distance.. We hope that friend Pollyanna mas ters our language in due time. EPISCOPAL BANQUET WILL BE NEXT WEEK Agnes Hall, National Secretary, to Be Honored; Plans Made for Reg • nlar Meeting All active Episcopal church students iaud those who attend or prefer the Episcopal church are cordially invited to attend a bampiet at the Anchorage Thursday evening of next week at 7:30 in honor of Miss Agues llall, national .secretary of the Council of Episcopal Students.

OREGON CLUB IMS' FROM 0.0. SOU Phi Delts Run Up Score of 22 to 11 on Sigma Chi; Games Good In a fast and clean-cut contest, the Oregon club defeated the Alpha Tau Omega quintet 26 to 24. Both squads exhibited clever passing ability and the checking on both sides was unusually good. The Alpha Taus were leading up to the middle of the second half when the Clubmen spurted and tied the score. With one minute to play, it looked as though the contest would require an ex tra period. Carson, the midget for ward for the losers made a desperate try for a basket, only to have the ball roll out of the hoop. The Oregon club secured the ball and with barely 30 sec onds to go Murray ringed one from the center of the floor, putting the game on ice. Murray and Gunther starred for the winners with 12 and 10 points respec tively. Carson of the Alpha Taus scor ed 18 of his team’s counters and gave the opposing guards plenty to do to keep him in sight. He is bound to give the other forwards a run for the all-star erth at the end of the season, if he ceps up his present gait. Along with utton lurray 12... runther 10. tern 2.

The first half resembled a asketball game, both squads display ig teamwork. In the last canto science as thrown to the winds and the re lit was more like a bag rush. In this eriod several personal fouls were eall d by referee Zimmerman.

LABORATORY FEES ARE DUE Fine of One Dollar Due after Oct. 30; May Be Expelled after Nov. 2 With one week gone of the 15 days allowed for the payment of laboratory | fees, only a small percentage have been paid, and according to Comptroller i.lohnsou, unless greater speed is shown by the students next week many will I tie unable to make their payments in t ime. , October 30 is the last day upon which regular payments may be made. The windows will close at 3 o’clock exactly, and those who are left in line must re turn on the morrow with an additional dollar. Following the 30th, two days will be allowed in which fees may be paid with a fine of one dollar. Any fees which remain unpaid after that date will bo considered by the Univer sity officials as sufficient grounds for expulsion from school of the delinquent student. A special appeal has been issued by the comptroller, that, in order to save themselves expense and the University officials an excessive amount of work on the final day, all students who have not paid their laboratory fees do so immediately. Get the Classified Ad habit Latin Book 400 Years Old Owned by Member of Faculty More that 100 uar* ago a book wm published a; Tubingen, Uermany, in the l.utiu peculiar to that time. This book was a copy of "(Quintus Curtins on the Life ami Kxploits of Aloxamlor tho l.-iat" affd has evdeutly passed through | many hands before it reached the pro sent owner. Professor F. S. Dunn of the! l.atin department of the University. The vellum baeks, whieh it undoubt edh possessed originally, are gone; the l title page is missing; and about half an un it has been eut away front the mar g ' Now at last, poor old "Quintus Curtins’’ has a respite from his adveti- j tt;res and wanderings, for the old book has been tenderly eared for by Profes sor Dunn during the past 25 years. Ott the margins of the book there are notes, w ritten in a course Herman script with a different kind of ink. There are a!' i markings in faded red ink. An interesting thing concerning alt the notes is that-they are not continued: b. vond the first quarter of the book. 1' is indicates that even the readers of] l.atin in the loth century failed to pen etrate very far into its mysteries. How ex er. the present owner reports that the volume is quite interesting and even fascinating. H reads this, and other’ books of that ago, with great enjoy ment. « The book was purchased by the pro fessor in ISS'ti. It was listed in a cata logue of second-hand books, sent to Pro fessor Dunn from Paris. The price was very small, according to the professor, owing to the mutilated condition of the copy. It is not a tifst edition but was published near the date of the tirst edi tion, probably 1-171. The preface was written in 1-194. At on time the book was a part of the private library of one Quiielini Wagueri, according to a stamp found inside its pages. Later it was sold for nearly nothing in Paris. Other "who's” and "why's" about the book must be left to the imagination. Professor Dunn has two other books, both Latin, which though not as old is the "Quintus Curtius" are old en ough to be very interesting. One is a treatise on geography by lVmponius Mela, printed in Basle. Switzerland, about 17*40. The other is " Florees, Roman History,” printed in Leyden. Holland, probably in lti,">7. The latter is au “ Elzevir book,” th< ” E rs” being a large family of great publish es.
