City alumni are enthusiastically going ahead with plans for a greater Oregon get-together in the metropolis. A program of University booster events is being planned with the game as the climax. The success of the entire enterprise depends largely upon us. Plans can be perfected by loyal alumni, but without a monster crowd of fighting rooters the affair is doomed to be a flat failure. Student officials have pledged themselves to the utmost in co operation. The plan suggested by the alumni of making Oregon’s greatest away-from-the-campus week-end in history the week-end of November 10, has been accepted with eagerness. Students have a great opportunity of seeing a mighty battle. The fight will be a close one, and the team will need you. A well-planned program is under way and our Portland alumni will need you. November 10 will be the day of Oregon’s opportunity to show Portland and the state a rousing demonstration of Oregon fight. Multnomah field, Portland, November 10—that’s the ticket. Hallowe en This night the spirits will walk abroad. This night the witch will ride. The spectre will flit about in the blackness. And out amidst the ghostly darkness the pumpkin will project his lighting grimace. When the daylight begins to wane and the dusk settles over this little corner of the earth, the spirit of superstition which breathes within us will stir, and will “seek to detach itself from its corporeal tenement and wander abroad through the realms of space.” Hallowe’en is come. Some say that once upon a time this was occasion for religious celebration. Others declare that the supersti tion thus associated with the eve of All-Saints day, the first of No vember, points to more pagjfci origin. “Nutcrack Night” was the name by which it was once known. It was the vigil of All-Saints day. This day, following close upon the heels of Whitsuntide, was at that time of the year when long periods of religious celebration were less restrained. There was more of feast ing and less of fasting. Merrymaking prevailed. At this particular time of the year people rejoiced at the completion of the harvest, the termination of that period of plenty and the beginning of the first month of winter. At this season people were fanciful enough to prognosticate the future marital relations of the young people. This was done by casting nuts into the fire upon the hearth to watch which burned evenly and which popped. The one augured of a happy family and the other connubial troubles. The apple was bobbed, children sang for their soul-cake, and omens were brought into play to predict the outcome of some love-match. Thus sentiment, tradition and superstition were woven into Hal lowe’en celebration. What Burns remarked concerning this “anile chimerical solemnity” is as applicable today as it was when uttered: “The passion of prying into futurity makes a striking part of the history of human nature in its rude state in all ages and nations; and it may be some entertainment to a philosophic mind to see the remains of it among the more unenlightened in our own.” One Year Ago Today BOMB XXOH POINTS IN OK BOON EMERALD OF OCTOBBB SI, 1022 The first intercollegiate debate of the year will be held with O.

To the Editor:— Those who watched Saturday’s game felt that they saw a good one, well played, one between true sportsmen. The rooters’ secion in the bleachers saw another struggle, a one-sided struggle, in which there was no sports manship. It spoiled the football for some of us. In a University that prides itself on Its good spirit; where opponents are treated with gentlemanly respect; and at a time when the good-will of the whole state is needed to support a campaign for funds; Saturday’s ex hibition of turning a firehose on the kids was the last thing in the world that we would have expected. Whose idea was it! An Oregon Knight was handling the hose when we first saw what was happening, but at our distance he seemed to be directed by an older man who took charge and deliberately turned the full stream on some fifty kids in the dilapidated and unused bleachers next the grand stand. What if they did try to sneak in? They’re the most loyal supporters that we have anywhere. They’ve got the old fight, too, for they came back for a second ducking, and a third. Most of them saw the game anyway, but wet clothes do a lot to dampen one’s enthusiasm. For an exhibition of cheap, yes cheap disregard for the feelings of a hundred TAKE YOUR TROUBLES TO He will cure them in a riot of laughing thrills.
