Bobbed Heads
Lady Godiva Lost on Campus
Shorn Heads Humber 174
House Average Is 8 7-10 Girls
Now we ask you frankly what kind
of a chance do you think Lady Godiva
would have had on the Oregon campus?
Do you remember Lady Godiva, the fair
dame of the middle ages, who rode
through the streets of her husband’s
ducal see city, clad only in her glor
ious long tresses, that the serfs, sub
ject to her husband, might enjoy great
er liberties? Such was her husband’s
promise.
No, we fear that Lady Godiva^would
have short shrift on this campus. Just
picture for a moment that famous lady
riding down Thirteenth street, her bob
bed hair flapping in the breeze. For
that would be the Oregon version of it.

Do your realize how many bobbed
hair girls there are on the University
campus? In the nineteen women’s or
ganizations listed there are one-hundred
and seventy-four examples of this mode
of hairdress. Most of them are soph
omore and upperelass women in the
University, yuite plainly, then, most
of them are not young high school girls
who have cut off their hair in the days
of the fad, and wish it to grow out
again, now that they are in college. The
flapper had her faults, but in passing,
she left one heritage to young women:
bobbed hair is a firmly grounded, social
ly accepted thing.

One hundred and seventy-four young
women with bobbed hair in ninotecn
young women ’a organizations means an
average of eight and seven-tenths bob
bed headed girls to each house.
Seven-tenths of a girll Perhaps that
seven-tenths of a girl in each of those
houses is one of those masculinely in
clined women. Anyway, it’s all a part
of the reaction from the stiff necked
ago 'behind us, and a rebound from
the tension of the war.
In these glorious days of froedom; in
this year of graco, 1922, when tho rau
cous voice of Dame Fashion is heard
shrieking, in French, across the land,
demanding in no uncertain tones the
submission of Amerean women to long
skirts, and long hair, the Oregon co-ed
stands forth from among her sisters and
Bays, “I won’t!”
Gone for her are tho days of luid
victorian prudery, when girls walked
on “limbs” or anything except legs, and
gone are those days, when fainting was
the favorite feminine indoor sport,

$100,000 DEAN STRAUB’S
1 GOAL FOR STUDENT FUND
PORTLAND WOMAN PROMISES TO
LEAVE 326,000
$13,000 in Coffers; Money Available to
All Students Except First or
Second Term Freshmen
Dean John Straub, “Oregon’s grand;
old man,” has one great ambition to
fulfill before lie closes his desk, follow
ing 50 years of service, in 1928. That
ambition is to make the student loan
fund reach the $100,000 mark.
“The sight of a boy sinking back
into the ranks of the uneducated sim
ply because he lacked a few dollars to;
complete a term’s work was the inspira-;
tion which led President Campbell and
myself to see the possiblity of estab-1
lishing the fund,” the Dean told an j
Emerald reporter this week.
It was in 1902, shortly after the ar
rival of President aCmpbell, that the
foundation of the fund was laid. Since
that time it has been Dean Straub’s
favorite project and lie has worked to
the accomplishment^ of (the $100,000
goal on lis many trips throughout the
state.
$13,000 in Fund
The fund now contains $13,000, all
of which s loaned except a few hun
dred dollars. It has been added to
from time to time by voluntary con
tributions and by thank offerings from
students it has helped. Several years
ago one man who was ablo to complete
his University education with $100,
which he borrowed through the offices
of Dean Straub, gave a $1000 Liberty
Bond in payment.
The greatest encouragement which
the Dean has received recently is the
promise of $25,000 from a Portland
woman, who has placed ths amount in
favor of the loan fund in her will.
Several other citizens of the state are
said to bo contemplating assisting the
work.
Requirements for the management of
the loan are simple. No money is
loaned to freshmeu unless it is to finish
out the third term. Sophomores may
borrow $100, juniors $150 and seniors,
$200. However, no student may have
more than $300 at one time. Six per
cent interest is charged and as long
as interest payments are made, students
are not pressed to repay the loan until
after they have finished their Univer
sity work and have had time to ac
cumulate some funds.
Studonts Honest, Says Dean
“Students are honest for the most
past,” the Dean soliloquized, when
asked about difficulty in collecting the |
notes. “In all the time the loan has
been in existence we have only lost
track of one $50 note and we still
have hopes of collecting it,” he said,
declaring that if the tafdy debtor is
not found he will make the amount
good himself.
Dean Straub has expressed the hope
that graduating classes will follow' the
example of the class of '96, who gave;
$3000 to the loan fund, which is to be
turned over to the University at a later
date after it has had time to add to
itself through compound interest.
Dr. Straub has visions of a fund of!
$500,000 in future years. “Even if
Oregon grows to the size of California,
we would then have enough to keep
all deserving students in the Univer-'
sity,” he believes.

Fair Athlete Is
Prizewinner in
Aquatic Events
Among the many interesting students
registered here this fall is Muriel
Myers, ’24, champion fancy diver and
long distance swimmer.
Last summer while on vacation with
her parents at their summer camp at
Lake Big Moose, in the Adirondacks,
she entered in the annual regatta held
there, carrying off honors in diving,
swimming, canoe racing, and capsizing.
As the prizes were donated she says
she is supplied for life with “stuff.”
One of the events she won was a com
bined/ swimming and canoeing race.
It is regarded as very difficult feat.
For several years she has been taking
part in the regattas held at the various
summer resorts in the east, each time
carrying off her share of the prizes.
Four years ago she won two bronze
cups for swimming and canoe racing.
Her closest competitor was Sylvia
Woodbridge, champion diver of Vassar
college. In swimming, her sister, Ilicne
Underwood, runs her a close second.
Miss Myers is a member of the Unit
ed States life saving corps. She is a
typical American girl, free, capable,
and tremendously interested in living.
She has been swimmng since she was
five years old, learning to care for her
self in water quite accidentally. One
day she was standing on a high dock
playing with a pair of water wings,
when they fell overboard. In trying
to seize them she too fell off into the
water. As no one was wth her, she
had to concentrate her mind on getting
out, thus mastering the first essentials
of swimming.
NO BAN ON WOMAN’S HALL
Building^ to Be Made Beautif .il and Fit
For Homecoming Dance
“Decoration of the Woman’s building
for the Homecoming dance will not
be restricted because of any previous
ruling against elaborate decorations,”
said Mrs. Wilson, caretaker of the build
ing, last night. This question arose at
the meeting of the several Homecoming
committees held Wednesday evening.
Mrs. Wlison states that the floor in
the gymansium has become unusually
slippery from the constant use that it
is put to. The use of floor wax is pro
hibited as it is injurious to the rugs
when tracked through the Alumni hall.
It is probable that corn meal may be
sprinkled on the dancing area.
