Whether the cause is the climate, a mental disease, or just an ad vanced stage of the American craze to organize, is a matter of Opinion. Perhaps it is a result of all three. The condition remains, however, of an abundant, if not a superfluous organization. Honor societies and professional fraternities spring up in certain departments. For a year or two leaders are selected for membership, but it is not long before those who were left out get together and honor themselves by getting a charter or a chapter or a franchise or anything else that will stamp them with the official title—organiza tion. And a year or two later, when certain people have been omit ted from both groups, a third organization is sprung on the public and another pin is added to the many to confuse the public, eye and to decorate the bulging chest of the wearer. So long as an organization means nothing but “honor,” which ceases to be such if it ever was when everybody belongs to something with a funny-sounding name, it has little reason to exist. To justify its presence on the face of the earth an organization must not only have ideals, but must do something. To wear a pin or just “to belong” is not enough. Groups organizing for social purposes arc not included in this criticism of organizations in general. They are intended to be of benefit chiefly to themselves. But organizations which arc supposed to guide the action of students, to supply the motives for advance ment to others, or in any way other than socially to benefit the Uni versity, should he comprised of students who have already achieved something. To overlap such organization with material left after choice of members has been made by the senior society is only to exhibit, a blind desire to belong to something, or to wear a pin indi cative of prestige. Who will be the goat and give the next self-honored group the laugh? The Daily l'alo Alto. Will History Repeat Itself? For about thirty years football games have been played between Oregon and O. A. and in that period the Aggies have returned vietorioux hut lour times. Fifteen games are credited to the Lemon Yellow gridsters. The rest have been tie games. In all the contests Oregon lias amassed a total of lltiti points to SS for the Beavers. It has almost become tradition that the Aggies have a chance only every ten years, since their victories were in 1897. 1907. and 1917. But Oregon isn't relying on past victories and dead glories to win today. We could never come out on the long end of the score if w'e depended upon successes of the past, alone. Today, history will >e made. Shy Huntington lias been drilling his men enrefully and horougldy since the game with Washington State College last Sat unlay. It will he Oregon's best and strongest lineup w hieli opens the game in Corvallis today. It' we are defeated, we will go down fighting amt will have no alibis to offer. But every Oregon student knows that the varsity is in tip top shape and determined not to let this game be the end of the Lemon Yellow hopes. If Oregon ean meet Washington undefeated, all eyes will turn toward Seattle llumks giving day. Kvery student will leave the campus for the day to see the team fight at Corvallis. Kvery man and woman is behind Shy and his war riors. Oregon women’s problems are rated as small and few by Berniee Altstoek, U. of O. delegate to the Coast Woman’s League convention at Salt Lake City. "We are not bothered with problems of college spirit and morals of the students.” says Miss Altstoek. Oregon should be proud to hear such a report, and should be zealous in keeping disturbing elements out of campus life. RAIN SOAKS GRIDIRON Aggie Homecoming Hosts Dampened by Autumnal Downpour Intermittent, wind-driven showers of r.iin weii soaking the O A t' campus and Hell field the scene if todtt' ’s gridiron battlt last night, according to a teiephoiii message received l>\ the Knicrald from Homei Roberts, editor of the (). A. <\ Barometer. Roberts said that a large erowd was in ('orvallis hist night for tlio Aggie Homecoming and for the bunting of the rook ho a fire. Spirit is running high on the nor them campus and it is suppose l that the rivalrt between the rooting sec tions will be intense this afternoon. Maut of the Oregon students went ot r to it. A. for the pre gatue rally and pepfest last night, but the greatest exodus northward will take place this morning at 11 o’clock w1 en the South ern I’aeitic special, with decorated coaches pulls out of the depot.

COMMUNICATIONS Letters to the Emerald from students and faculty members are welcomed, but I must be signed and limited to 260 words. If it is desired, the writer's name will be kept out of print. It must be understood that the editor reserves the right to reject communications. To the Editor: Away with the empty, outworn, ob solete “hello” tradition in former years when every student knew every other student to fail to say “hello” when meeting was a breach of courtesy—hence the tradition; at the present time when it is impossible for any collegian to be acquainted with all of his schoolmates the tradition is an empty formalism, a foolish survival, and a campus anachronism. Surely the indifferent “loh,” “lope” or “lo” exchanged between students who arc strangers to each other dois not contribute to good fellowship. Such a greeting means nothing; it is noth ing more nor less than an automatic I salutation. The friendly smile and the friendly tone of voice wluich gives ; meaning to a greeting of friends is en tirely lacking. The trad^tionists claim that the j “hello” tradition fosters democracy on the campus. But does it? Does it real ly result in social relations between, say, the independents and the frater nity men and women? It does not; everyone knows that in this vaunted democratic codoge the fraternity and non fraternity students as a general rule do not mix socially. At best, the tradition only fosters a “hello” democ racy. Evidences are plenty that the tradi tion is dying of its own weight. Any observer with normal sight daily sees many students pass without greeting each other. In the past some of the well-known and supposedly popular football men have commented upon and even counted the number of students who passed indifferently While they sat on the senior bench. And the last and best evidence is that for the last two years the Emerald through its editorial page lias found it necessary continually to exhort the collegians to say “hello!” The tradition has outlived its use fulness so let’s ilo away with it. SPECTATOR. Y. W. C. A. WILL HOLD SUNDAY VESPER AT 4 Miss Leslie Blanchard of New York Will Speak on "World Student Movements” Sunday at I o’clock the V. \V. I'. A. will hold vesper services at the Bunga low. This will be an especially worth while and interesting meeting, Miss Dorothy Collier, secretary, promises and urges all girls to be present. A special j speaker, Miss Leslie Blanchard, from the national office in New York, will! give :in address on "World Stu lent j Movements.” Miss Blanchard has been in touch with student movements in many coun tries, particularly British, and has at tended several world conferences, so she is well qualified to speak, flood music will also be a part of the ser1 vice, according to Miss ('oilier. The program for the meeting is as follows: Prelude: Violin, cello, piano- Mary and Irene Burton, Virginia Owens. Hymn—At Even K’re the Sun Was Set. Prayer. Solo—1> wladys Keeney. Scripture. Selection: Trio--violin, cello, piano— Misses Burton, Virginia Owens. Address—Miss Leslie Blanchard. Hymn—God is Working His Purpose Out. Benediction. BAIRD WRITES FROM POST Former Commandment Busy in Mili tary School" at Fort Leavenworth Major Raymond (’. Baird, former commandant of the R. O. T. C„ was as signed last June by the War Depart ment to attend the school of the line. He is now stationed at Port Leaven worth, Kansas. Major Baird writes that he is lead ing a bus\ 1’fe in the infantry school with classes and studies night and day, with the exception of Saturday after noons and Sundays. He was recently notified to change his Oregon automobile license and but a Kansas one. He says he does this with great reluctance as it scorns like the severing of the *t»st thread of his connection with Oregon. SOCCER MEN MAY PLAY GAMES UTER IN KEAR No Matches With 0. A. C. Have Been Scheduled Contrary to an impression which ap pears to be prevalent on the O. A. C. campus, the Oregon soccer team will not meet the Aggie hooters in a game on the Corvallis field this morning.} In fact, no soccer team has been or ganized at the University this fall, and Gerald Barnes, of the department of physical education said that no arrange ments for a game with the O. A. C. soccer team have been made. In past years it has been customary for Oregon and O. A. C. to meet in a soccer contest during the homecomings at the two institutions. Handicapped for the lack of a field, the Oregon men did not get out this fall. Since the end of the Frosh season, several members of last year’s team have been kicking the ball and it is probable that games will be arranged later in the season when the men get in condition. Ur. Edwin T. Hodge, of the geology department, a soccer enthusiast, is now getting all those interested in the game out twice each week, Tuesdays and Thursdays. Several members of the faculty play along with the students. Several of the star players on last year’s team are back in school this year and it is believed that if interest in the practices keeps up some games will be scheduled later in the year. MU PHI EPSILON TO APPEAR Women’s Musical Fraternity Choses Dec. 14 as Date for Concert Mu Phi Epsilon, women's national musical fraternity has chosen December 14 as the date for its annual concert. These concerts were first started sev eral years ago, and have proved one of the big attractions of the year, besides being very well done. The program usually consists of chor al work, a vocal trio, piano solo, and vocal solos. The program for this con cert is in charge of Lora Teshner and Mildred Brown. Plans for it are still tentative and a definite program is to be announced later. EXODUS AFFECTS PSYC LAB (Continued from page one.) in the morning watch, and then slept until lab was five minutes away. “Mow is your introspection this morning, Mr. Swivlefoot?” I think that we will score in the second quarter, and if the mud does n't get too deep, wo will place kick in the last period.” “Instructor.” “Yes, what is it?” "in this experiment I am seeing red and it says I should see green.” “Well, if you would put your necktie down under your chin and not on the bridge of your nose you might see green instead of red.” And so it went. What psychology learned this morning in the lab, will be the psychology of mob frenzy at a foot ball game, the psychology of ripping a line to ribbons. "REMEMBRANCE” HERE MONDAY I’atsy Ruth Miller, ingenue in “Re membrance,” a Goldwyn-Rupert Hughes production, which will be at the Rex theater Monday, is only eighteen. So perhaps it is natural that she should have been hailed as the spokes woman and leading champion for the “flap pers” merely a normal, healthy young girl of the present day, which is what she is herself. Miss Miller is consider ed a good example by the “flappers” because she led her classes through school, and in a psychology test made at the Goldwyn studio, received the highest ranking of any of the players. Ever since she has been in motion pic tures' she has lived with her mother. She is what is termed a "home girl.” VARIED PROGRAM AT HEILIG One’s cares and worries vanish as if, by magic under the skilful manipula tion of a program that varies from heavy dramatics to the farciest of farce and contains something of interest and amusement to everyone present at the lleilig theater where the Keith Vaude ville Artists are holding for^i. Their program is a combination that is bound to please any audience no matter how critical. The special Heilig orchestra directed by Harry Reed assists the program to a marked degree. This is the last day to see this attraction. DEBATE SCHEDULE CHANGED Only nine teams will be in the race for the women’s debate trophy as the result of the withdrawal of Delta Delta Delta yesterday. This causes a change in the schedule as announced in yester day’s Emerald. The Tri Pelts’ affirma tive was to have debated Kappa Kappa Gamma while its uegative was to have met Pi Beta Phi. The new schedule as changed puts Pi Beta Phi’s affirma tive team against the negative team of Kappa Kappa Gamma. TICKETS ARE STILL BEING SOLD In order to enable students to pur chase tickets to the game in Corvallis this afternoon, the University Co-op will be open until 10 o’clock this morning. Student body tickets must be taken to the Co-op when the blea cher tickets are being purchased. The price of these tickets is 50 cents. All grandstand seats have been sold.

Everybody i must report for voice practice on the j sawdust meadow used by our brothers : of the plow for the gentle art of play ing football. You all will feel much more like eating breakfast tomorrow morning if { you are a witness at the main event of the “Lemon Squeezing Day,’’ such as this section of the calendar has been dubbed by the official jazz pro ducer of the beaver barnyard. No doubt the day will be great and the game good but don’t forget that it’s a long way to Corvallis and that the best thing you can do is to get a regular meal
