A new set of leaders has been selected. In a short time those who have been at the helm dur ing the past year will step from their places to make room for the newcomers. And through the post-election congratulations will come ;he realization by the new officers tljat they are responsible for Oregon for another year. They will understand—and they have vision—that next year is a critical year for the University. Oregon is rapidly changing, and it will be the task of her student leaders to see that the mistakes are as few as possible. There are certain pitfalls which may be avoided, and there are difficulties which may be overcome. “Oregon Spirit” is constantly endangered by careless and indifferent persons. Her traditions are continually jeopardized by those who know little of the past and think little of the future. Her athletics are negletced by apathetic men and women. It will be the task of those leaders who were chosen yester day to combat these evils. The student body yesterday expressed confidence in the success ful candidates. The students must retain their confidence in their leaders. They must support the captains they have chosen. Yester day’s differences must be forgotten. The new officers have a re sponsibility far greater than they—or anyone else—may realize. The students believe that they have ability and vision. They have ac cepted a challenge. The Choice of Books Books are a great factor in a student’s life. His school books are chosen for him, but other books he himself must choose. The choice is important. Someone has said that a book is a friend, and it is true. In a book one can drown sorrows, be cheered, and often helped. It is strange how like friends our books are. They must be chosen wisely, for not all of them are the right kind. Not all of them will be true and helpful friends. Books are the quietest sort of friends one can have. They never bother and they never ask questions. They wait for you to come to them. There is probably nothing more useful to students than books. In them the learning of centuries is stored; the knowledge of well-known men accumulated; the fancies of many people related. Books are one thing of which there can be no scarcity. It is difficult to realize how many there must be and how many are each day published. Choose your books wisely and choose a large num ber. To be well read is to have accomplished a lot on the road to ward real education.—Ohio State Lantern. “Football is one of the best courses given on this campus to en able a man to face the business world when he gets through here. It develops self-confidence and fight as well as a sense of sportsmanship which makes it possible for a man to stand on his feet and look any body in the eye. You know you are a man when you get through with football, tin- weaklings soon drop out.”—Bart Spellman. EUROPEAN TRIP IS PLAN OF CAMPUS LIBRARIAN Mrs. Mabel McClain Accompanied by »ramatic Instructor, Miss Baufield, Will Leave Early in June Mrs. Mabel K. McClain, Head of the circulation department of the Univer sity library, will leave early in June for a trip to Europe. Mrs. McClain will sail front Montreal Juno »0, aceompa nied by Miss Charlotte Banfield, in structor in drama and the spot'ch arts, on the Melita, a Canadian vessel which will stiil down the picturesque St Law rence river and skirt the Newfoundland coast. They will land in Liverpool. Mrs. McClain will spend some time in England, dividing her time between London, Oxford and English cathedral towns, before she proceeds to Paris by j way of Holland and Belgium. It is in France and Paris that Mrs. j McClain is especially interested, amt it is there that site expoets to spend most of her time. While she is in Paris she hopes to spend a few weeks studying. From Paris Mrs. McClain plans to j make many excursions into various pints of Eranee, visiting the Chateau territory, Chartes, Montsaintchella and other points of interest. She is also looking forward to meeting the Rebees in 1'aris and other Oregon people who are planning to make the European trip tli is season. Whether or not she will go to Italy or through Switzerland and the oceu piod portions of Germany, Mrs. McClain has not yet decided. Her main interest lies in Eranee although she hopes to go to Rome and Venice also. Mrs. MeClain will visit all the large libraries in the European cities which : she touches. She says that she is es pecially anxious to visit the univer sity libraries in Europe, and before she sails in June is expecting to visit ! Princeton and Yale and their librar ies. She has already seen the libraries ot the University of Chicago, Harvard 1 niversity, Clarke University and mid dle western and California institutions. Mrs. MeClain will return to Oregon sometime in the fall, sailing from Eranee on a French vessel and making the land trip across the continent over the Canadian National, the most north ern of the Canadian railroads.

Thus far there have been few entries either for the prize of $50 offered by Mrs. Murray Warner for the best es say designed to promote closer rela tions between America and the Orient, or in the Philo Sherman Bennett award for the best essay on the principles of of free government. The terms of both of these contests have been published in the Emerald, the chairman pointed out. Further in formation regarding these competitions may be hud from Mr. Turnbull. The time for the submission of essays in the Bennett contest ends May 15 and in the Warner contest May 26. A maxi mum of 5,000 words is set in each. “There is still time for anyone able to do intensive work to turn in a very creditable effort in either of these con tests,” said Mr. Turnbull. Other mem bers of the committee in charge are Dean John J. Landsbury, Prof. W. F. G. Thacher, Dr. A. E. Caswell, and Prof. C. D. Thorpe. Six Neophytes Will Make Talks Today Six neophytes of Sigma Delta Chi, men’s national journalism fraternity, will meander about the campus today and just before the assembly hour will entertain the assembled students from the library rostrum. It is not known what brand of humor the initiates will have on tap, but it is certain their ap pearance will be unique. They will be garbed in “soup and fish.” The six men are Lyle Janz, Lester Turnbaugh, Randolph Kuhn, Ted Janes, Monte Byers and Alfred Erickson. They reported last night that one-half dozen complete full dress uniforms had been acquired in various parts of Eugene, but that the silk headgear in this neck of the timber is as rare as a dodo. Formal initiation of the neophytes will be held Sunday evening. A part of the pre-initiation obligation has been the editing of a miniature publication which will be broadcast to the high school students of the state. This publication, which is a journalistic in vitation to the high school students to visit the University during Junior Week-end will go to press today. "THE AWFUL TRUTH" COMING At the Heilig Theatre, for one per formance, May loth, Tuesday evening, Ina Claire, most popular and likable among our younger American actresses, is to be seen in "The Awful Truth,” the comedy by Arthur Richman, of which must agreeable report has been heard in advance and in which Miss Claire appeared for five months at Henry Miller’s Theatre in New York and more recently with similar success at Powers’ Theatre in Chicago. In each city Miss Claire was credited with hav ing achieved the highest artistic point i in her distinguished career.

GEOLOGISTS TO HAVE OUTING WITH MAZAMAS Hikers to Leave Eugene in two Groups; One Section under Dr. E. L. Packard Will Collect Fossils on Trip The plans for the first joint hike of the Mazama club of Portland and the Condon club of the University have been definitely decided upon. The hikers leaving Eugene will be divided into two sections. One group, under the direction of Dr. E. L. Packard, of the geology department, will leave Fri day and motor to Pittsburg, where fos sils will be collected. This division will join the other group, under the leader ship of Dr. Warren D. Smith, head of the geology department, at some point farther north. The second section of hikers plans to leave Eugene Saturday noon. They will drive to St. Helens and examine the ore deposits in the vicinity. These two groups will meet the Ma zamas near Portland Sunday morn ing. The entire party will leave the Columbia Highway and visit points of sfcenic interest. The trip is open to any University student and to the general public.

If anyone has an automobile available for use, he is requested to designate the fact. Further information will be sup plied by calling Hally Berry at 841 or the geology department at 1399R. The affair is a novel event in the history of Condon club since it is the first joint hike that has been attempted. If the outing proves successful, other hikes will be planned annually. The hike is a splendid opportunity for hikers. The route will cover some of the best scenic points in Oregon and should afford pleasure to the nature lovers of the city, acording to the com mittee in charge. NEW BRIDGE TO SPAN RACE Draining of Water not to Hinder Canoe Fete, Contractors Say Contrary to current rumors that the 1923 junior week-end is to be sans a canoe fete because some one or other was going to pull the Volstead act on the mill-race, the festival will not be divested of its enchanting aquarian spectacle, as the race is not to be drained, according to advices received from M. E. Mulvev, of the Eugene Pow er company, and W. A. Clark, contrac tor in charge of building the new bridge across the race on Franklyn Boulevard. The old wooden structure which spanned the mill-race on Franklyn Boul evard at the foot of Kincaid street is now being torn away and will be re placed by a modern concrete bridge. The new structure, according to Mr. Clark, will be 50 feet long and 34 feet wide and constructed of reinforced con crete. In order to set the piers for the new bridge coffer dams will be used thus making the draining of the mill race unnecessary.
