Easiness Manager Phones -051 Editor -666 Daily News Editor This Issue Florine Packard Night Editor This Issue Taylor Huston Spring Football Essential Competition, in football grows keener along the coast year by year, and as the competition increases it becomes harder for Oregon with a small student body to meet it. At 0. A. C. year-round football is in vogue at the present time, as at many other colleges and univer sities all over the country. Year-round football is not feasible at Oregon; but spring football is, and it will be made a real feature of the grid program the coming quarter. Last year the spring practice was a fizzle for just one reason: no men would turn out. Football in the spring is an absolute necessity if Oregon is to maintain the high place she has ever held in the grid sport. These workouts in April and May afford the coaches an opportun ity to give candidates individual instruction that will tell during the regular season. The out-of-season practices enable the coaching staff to get an exact line on the worth and ability of men hitherto unknown. The pre-season period in the fall is altogether too short for any in dividual instruction save for the actual first squad. Next fall there will be but two weeks from the opening practice until the first game ; obviously no time then for the coaches to observe the antics of every one who turns out. Men who are not actually playing on other athletic teams next quarter will do themselves a favor if they turn out for football at that time, in the spring they will have an opportunity to come under the eyes of the coaches and to develop whatever latent talent they may have in the grid game. Coach Huntington expects every man who in tends to turn out for football next fall or who imagines he has any football ability to be out for the game this spring. The coach is jus tified is this expectation. Oregon is behind him; Oregon wants a winning team next fall, and the only way to get it is to develop men to fill the gaps that graduation will leave. Shortly after the opening of the next tenn the workouts will com mence. An all-men’s smoker or a special assembly should be held early in April to interest every possible prospect in the gridiron sport, and get, all the gridiron candidates out at a time when their presence will mean something. Hard Knocks Needed—Colonel Hanley Some time ago the Emerald launched an attack against “lounge lizards,” “cake-eaters,” and others who fail to show proper spirit. Yesterday Colonel Bill Hanley of Burns visited the campus and talked to one or two groups. The following quotation from Colonel Hanley is not irrelevant to the present discussion: “When 1 see this little chap here and that one there about these institutions the question that occurs to me is, "Is he getting struggle enough? Is life being put up to him hard enough to bring out what maybe is in him?’ 1 wonder if his days are made difficult enough for his own good. They shouldn’t be easy. When I think of the men that are taken off of milk and put right on to money, I sometimes wonder how we ever get men at all.” Such criticisms from the outside should make Oregon students sit up ami think. College life is not an end in itself; it is merely prep aration for greater service after graduation. And the life of the “lounge lizard” cannot be considered good training for the hard knocks of life which are sure to come. CANTATA IS NEXT SUNDAY University Gloe Clubs to Present Reg ular Vesper Services The University Glee clubs, under the direction of John Stark Evans, will present “The Seven Last Words of Christ” at regular University ves per services next Sunday afternoon in the Methodist church at 4:30 o’clock.

Editorially Clipped THE PERFECT PROFESSOR Absolute perfection of professorship is an ideal that is perhaps impossible of complete attainment, but it is in the sincerity with which so many breast forward towards this goal that suc cess is won. The perfect professor has three ar : tides of faith; he believes in his sub ject; ho believes in his students; he believes in himself. First, in his subject, that it is the I best of all possible subjects for study, ! research and application. This faith can come from no half-knowledge, but from real first hand acquaintance with authority or experiment. And it must spring from a sincere love that is not diverted by thought of vocational ad vantage or propaganda, but is a pure love of the subject for its own sake, for the delight of its discoveries, the neatness of its inventions, the harmony and perfection of its laws, the intri cacy and efficiency of its processes. And the perfect professor has faith in his students. He loves youth for its own sake, as he loves his subject, keeps himself young among his students, and sees through their eyes the importance of matters that engross them. He is not 'contemptuous of their little learn ing, not embittered by their failures. He can arouse their interest, and kin dle their enthusiasm for the subject he is teaching. This is the final touch stone of professional perfection—the ability to instil the student with an enthusiasm for the subject of his study —and it demands not only faith in the subject and faith in the student, but makes imperative the teacher’s faith in himself. Such a standard of perfection is a high one, and one which might be thought rarely attainable among such a hard-tried body of men as college professors. But as a general rule, this is not the case; and few and unfortun ate are the students who cannot look ! back to at least several of his teachers I whose faith in his subject and his stu dents has awakened in him an answer ing flame of enthusiasm.—McGill Daily. ADVERTISING THE COLLEGE State universities and colleges are i the poorest advertised productive agen cies in the entire country. Even the smallest manufacturing establishment engaged in the noble art of turning out hairpins or cuff links flaunts the worth of its article to the civilized world by means of newspaper space and pos ter propaganda. While the educational institution which turns out the pur veyors of progress is modestly reticent | and is content to blush unseen. Only in recent years have the ad ministrative heads of universities rec ognized the necessity of advertising the merits of their institutions to a somewhat indifferent public. And even at that the work has gained momentum with comparative slowness. An advertisement for this university does three things: it obtains for its graduates a standing throughout the the country; it brings the citizens of the state to a keen realization of what their tax dollar is' actually being spent tor; and it best of all stimulates in the minds of high school graduates a desire for higher learning, a discontent with their allotment of superficial ed ucation—The Daily Kansan. DAY DREAMS AND THOUGHTS An editorial writer on another col lege daily has paused to reflect on the vast amount of time wasted by students who day dream. And the serious ob server, after reflecting concerning the ways of students, is likely to agree and to lament the loss of so much val uable time in an unproductive process. Still, an important distinction must be noted, and that is the difference between day dreaming and thinking. The student who pauses in his work every now and then, examines his motives, takes stock of what he has learned through experience or study, and tries to deter nine in what direction he is heading; that itudent deserves nothing but praise for lis efforts. On the other hand, the man vho day dreams is often the man who re fuses to concentrate on the work that is before him. Perhaps his school work loes not keep him fully occupied, and if :his is true he might well go in for some >utside activities. But at any rate, it is worth while to jonclude that the man who thinks is the me to watch, for he has set a goal for limself. He weighs the value of the at tractions competing for his time, and at tempts to discard the insignificant ones. Unlike the day dreamer, he doesn’t often permit himself * to take inconsequential journeys into speculative lands of noth ingness, but is training his mind to react properly to the major problems of his life, which for the most part are yet to come.—Michigan Daily. COLLEGE MEN WANTED FOR RESERVE CORPS Information Regarding Organization May Be Obtained from Mil itary Department Members of the B. O. T. C. who are interested in becoming members of ei ther the National Guard or the Organ ized Reserves of the United States ar- j my may secure any information desired from the military department of the University of Oregon, according to an! announcement from that department, j Civilians too, are urged by the gov ernment to affiliate themselves with the Organized Reserve unit at or near their homes. Previous service men and those who have attended one or two of the Citizen’s Military Training camps are eligible for appointment as non-com missioned officers. Members of the R. 0. T. C. and others are encouraged to enlist in the National Guard. This step is advisable for all who wish to qualify for commissions in that com penent of the army for the reason that its enlisted grades are the principal source from which its officers are ap-! pointed. Eugene has been allotted three com panies of infantry, companies A, B, and C, .'!82nd Infantry, 96th Reserve Div ision, and is located in the Ninth Corps! Area, with headquarters at San Fran-1 cisco. COMMUNICATIONS Letters to the Emerald from students and faculty members are welcomed, but nust be signed and worded concisely 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. Y. M. C. A. OWNS HUT To tlio Editor: As one who has been more or less identified with the University Y. M. C. A., although no longer in an offi cial capacity, permit me to draw at tention to two facts not yet mentioned in the Y. M. C. A.-Student Union dis cussion. The “Hut” was erected at a cost of nearly six thousand dollars, all of which was Y. M. C. A. money, a considerable portion being given by friends in Eu gene, and none of this would have been given to a Student Union. If the ‘Hut” is to be used as a union, the A. S. U. O. ought to pay the Y. M. C. A. its appraised value. Secondly, granted the Y. M. C. A. may not be as efficient as one might wish; granted too that it may cost a considerable amount of money to oper ate, nearly ninety per cent of its mon ey is given for the support of a Y. M. C. A. and it is for the donors to determine whether their money is spent wisely or not. Probably not one-third of this money would be available for the support of a Student Union. I am for a Student Union, but I see no necessity for dispossessing or criti cizing the Y. M. C. A. in order to get it. A. E. CASWELL. Y. W. BUDGET $4300 To the Editor: Far be it from me to enter the dis cussion now rife on the campus of I whether or not the Y. M. C. A. is a relp to the student body, or a sort of fifth wheel ns some seem to think it is; but I do suggest that Mr. Lane ie sure his information is correct be fore he quotes. May I submit that lie Y. W. C. A. budget for the year s $4300 instead of $1400f TREASURER Y. W. C. A. Get the Classified Ad habit. LAST TIMES TODAY!
