The day of glad greetings, of happy memories revived, of old class rivalries brought again to the front and of the realization of how the University has grown, is here again. A great many Oregon students of classes long since gradua ted from the institution were directly responsible for a great many of the improvements which have come about in recent years. Virtually everyone who has- ever taken work here has done something to make a Greater Oregon. The spirit of appreciation of the advantages enjoyed by the present student body because of the work of those who have gone before us is a big factor in prompting the homecoming idea. We Oregon students are glad to see the old grads be cause they are a part of us and we do want them to know that the work they began is being carried on. Although Oregon is nearing the status of a big University, the alums still find the same brand of fight that has made Oregon mighty and that has kept alive such traditions as that of the “Hello.” Outward changes are necessary to progress, but Oregon students are still taught the essentials of real Oregon spirit that came into being when the campus population was less than two hundred. “Unite to Fight for Oregon” When the whistle blows at 2:30 this afternoon on Hayward field,—a field made famous by great battles and great players— two crowds of rooters will thrill as they have seldom thrilled before. Oregon and its grads will watch for the victory that has usually been theirs, while the mass of Orange and Black will pray for the breakdown of what they please to call a “jinx.” Despite the long string of Oregon victories there will be no over-confidence on the part of Lemon-Yellow supporters. The spirit of support which will back Shy’s men in every play will be a spirit that realizes that a strong team must be downed be fore Oregon can nail another Beaver skin to the flagstaff. This is a year when pride in Oregon spii'it should be at its j highest. The season has not been particularly successful for, us, yet the men are fighting as never before. Never a word of grumbling has been heard from the team or the rooters. It is always so. Even in actual games when scores are heaped against us there is never a tendency to let down. Let that spirit of fight ever be linked with the name of Oregon, and today when the Beaver cries for victory let every j man and woman “unite to fight for Oregon.” -— Closely associated with Oregon and its traditions is the; character and personality of our grand old man—Dr. John Straub. Despite his recent illness the love for his boys and girls has brought him back to the campus for the Homecoming. Of necessity he cannot take too active a part in the festivities; but he will be here, and his spirit—that indomitable spirit which has ever been a part of Oregon and its students—will be a real factor in this, our greatest Homecoming. freshmen to report on KINCAID THIS MORNING The following freshmen report to Otto Manthe on Kincaid field at 8:00 a-m.

REMEMBER OREGON SPIRIT To the Editor: The Oregon spirit, as the older men on the campus know it, requires every Oregon student to be a gentle man and a sportsman. It wins foot ball games by clean playing and clean rooting. It treats opponents with courtesy, applauds when they play brilliantly, and all the while it inspires Oregon men to triumph through sheer merit. It never gloats over victory, but is only happy. De feat it takes without alibi, and smiles with a resolution to excel in the next encounter. The Oregon Spirit lives in every Oregon man and woman on the campus I CLAUDE E.

Hundreds of old timers, men representing several generations of college life, conducted the annual rally at Obak’s Kollege last night. Perhaps it was the slogan: “Away from the wife, Obaks is the life,’’ that brought so many back, but there were a good many among those pre sent that had sneaked away from “the wife’’ just before the rally and joined the gang at Obaks regardless of later consequencs. It hasn’t been a matter of “say hello first’’ at Obaks, for everybody is saying “hello” at the same time. Conversations here are not being based upon higher standards of edu cation, stocks and bonds, insurance rates, the cost of coal, Mailing food or any of the other things that one might expect from a group of died in the wool alumni. On the contrary the atmosphere is filled with stories of the past: stories of the times that deal with the sidg of university life that is never mentioned in the cata* logne; stories of life of things that were done before “What will the state think?” became the phrase that gov erns all actions. It is Homecoming week at Obaks and the alumni know it. If you arg trying to find a certain gTad call 48 and ask Obak—headquarters are here —there’s a rally going on 24 hours of the day at the Kollege that all alumni return to. UNHAPPY GRAD LOSES HEART BUT FINDS JOY “Red O’Flanagan, ’05 stood silent on the street in front of Obak’s Kol legt and looked things over; he was thoughtful and reflective. Slowly he turned his head and gazed up Willa mette, gazed long and steadily; then, just as deliberately he looked down Willamette. His mood was plainly sorrowful, lonely and reminiscent. “Fat” Brown, ’06 approached him and a greeting followed. It was the usual sort of greeting that embodied all of the various exchanges of confi dences that men who have not met for years will exchange. The wives, the kids, the price of hay, the dope on the game, the bonfire, Jimmy Gilbert, the income tax—all of these were in cluded, but still O’Flanagan main tained a downcast attitude. Brown, sensing the situation, in quired. “Red” failed to reply for a time, but finally, “Oh, I’m getting old I guess, but I cannot help but think how things have changed— there’s nothing the same as it used to be, the buildings seem different, the kids are strangers, the town has grown, the profs are more reserved, the-” “You old fossil”, cried Brown, and he grabbed him by the arm and dragged him into Obak’s Kollege. “Downhearted are you? Homesick and think your old? Well, put this cigar in your mouth, grab one of those cues and I will show you that college life has not changed one darned bit and that no matter how old a man may get that Obak’s Kollege revives him. ’ ’ "Mac”—The Old Reliables—“Jack” VARSITY BARBER SHOP 11th and Alder Hair bobbing a specialty C.
