Tuesday night it presented one of the most pleasing programs ever heard on the campus to a large and appreciative audience. The concert demonstrated a number of things. First, the inability of those in the rear of the gymnasium to hear, clearly brings up the long-felt need of an adequate auditorium, where assemblies of the entire student body could be held and where popular attractions could be staged successfully. Secondly, the fact that the largest crowd ever attending a glee dug concert on this campus, heard Tuesday night’s offer ing, proves the advisability of having the campus musical or ganizations on the concert series. The increased interest in musical work gained by the widespread appreciation of the efforts of directors and their organizations is bound to be of benefit. Finally, the splendid quality of the program brought out the unfairness of position in which a great many of our non athletic activities are placed. Student managers of these ac tivities ordinarily are allowed to shift for themselves as far as the scheduling of trips is concerned. Glee club men are often “farmed out’’ during tours, while members of athletic teams live at the best hotels. Perhaps the fact that athletics are the greater revenue gain ers does entitle athletic teams to more consideration; but the fact remains that many other student activities are actually allowed to suffer for want of the attention which is given in athletic matters. Some of the best friends of the University have been gained by the visits of our musical organizations to the various towns throughout the state. They are able to visit parts of Oregon where athletic teams could never go. Yet musical organizations are never sure of a trip. If the student manager is a good one and has good luck the campus musicians may receive a trip, which is really a reward for the long hard periods of work they give to creating programs. As far as getting much help or encouragement here on the campus or even a due share of at tention, apparently there simply isn’t time. A thing worth doing at all is worth doing well. Noil-ath letic activities deserve more attention. Perhaps the remedy is an additional member on the graduate manager’s staff. Cooperation with the Emerald The Emerald has a large staff, larger than at any time in the history of the publication. It is the aim of the Emerald to cover the campus thoroughly every day and to serve the stu dents in the best manner possible. Despite the care taken to record all the campus news of value, some may be overlooked. We are anxious to have all of the news. The Emerald is your paper. As a member of the A. S. U. O. you are a part owner of the daily. Those who through dili gence have earned a place on the staff are serving you. They sacrifice their time in order that all of the students may have a good newspaper. Remembering that the Emerald is your paper as well as the staff’s, we urge that you use your telephone and the cam pus mail in informing the Emerald of possible stories. This type of cooperation will make for a better student daily, and such assistance will be received in the spirit in which it is given. Mr. Fisher, superintendent of grounds and buildings, has called our attention to the fact that the recent frost has made the ground in and around the campus especially soft. He de clares that this condition of th0 paths has caused students to walk on the grass and that more damage has been done during the last few days than he has ever seen in a correspondnig period. The Oregon campus is one of the things which makes us rightfully proud of our University. It is one of the most beautiful campuses in the country. Great care is taken to maintain this beauty, and students generally should cooperate in the effort to keep it beautifuL o — ♦ !

SCRUB PLAYERS MEET TO REORGANIZE CLUB “Scrap Iron” Toole is President; Number of Social Affairs Planned for Winter Eighteen of the men who labored to get the varsity players into trim during the past fall, met recently for the first time since the season closed. This meeting was a revival of the old L. N. P. club of last year and was called for the pur pose of fostering a spirit of good fellowship among the scrubs as well as to plan for a number of social affairs this winter. With the passing of Moe Sax into the ranks of the varsity, sec ond team quarterback, “Scrap Iron” Toole was elected as presi dent; and Ed Warren was elected to take Joe Ellis’ place as secre tary and general manager. Several committees were appointed, Bert Gooding and Ray Mosier, who worked together as tackle and end on the scrubs last fall have been chosen to handle the social affairs of the club. Bart Kendall and George Hillis, two backfield aspir ants of last year, were detailed to arrange for the- financial end of whatever good time is planned. Mc Auliffe, McMullen and Mike Akers wore felt to be husky enough for the providing of any necessary re freshments. During the meeting the advisibil ity of choosing a name for this year’s organization was discussed and though nothing definitely was done, there seemed to be a favor able attitude toward calling the society the “Scrub Club.” Initation ceremonies for the new members who gained the privilege of sitting on the bench during this year’s game with O. A. C. were discussed. These now members will be initiat ed later. FRIEDERIKE SCHILKE RECITAL THIS EVENING — Ruth Scott Byrne, Pianist, Will Appear With Lyric Soprano; Public Invited !

EIGHT PASS FRESHMAN ENGLISH EXAMINATION Percentage Lower Than in Fall Term; Questions are Becoming More Technical Eight out of thirty-five passed the freshman English examination held last week for the new students entering the University. This is about 17 per cent lower than the number that passed the examination given at the beginning of the fall term. The same examination was given this term. A great deal of interest has re cently been taken by teachers throughout the state in the fresh man examinations. The extension division and the English depart ment have been kept busy sending out copies of them. The English examinations given to entering freshmen are becoming more technical, according to the English department of the Univer sity. The department is question ing the students on grammatical points and in this way it is hoping to encourage a more extensive knowledge of grammar. Y. M.
