Falls in Line A week ago the University of Oregon student body pioneered in the revolutionary movement of doing away with guests at Junior week-end. The need of having guests was removed to a great extent by the staging of the high school editors and student body officers’ conference, wherein hundreds of the leading high school students come to the campus and see the! serious side of University life. Entirely disregarding the fact that Oregon holds such a con ference, the 0. A. C. Barometer came out the day after the announcement of the ban on guests here and gave the world to understand that. O. A. C. would continue as usual in enter taining the “prepper hordes.” The Barometer editorial said: ‘‘Oregon is slow to realize that the social whirl of Junior week-end really means little to the high school student who visits an institution to learn the advantages and opportunities offered to attain the education desired. 0. A. C. has come to the front with an all-college ex position that will show the prepper in an obvious manner the real equipment of the college in carrying out the work of the various branches of education. ‘‘But unlike Oregon we have retained our Junior week end to show the prepper the wholesome social life enjoyed by students in the most democratic institution in the state.” Yesterday the 0. A. C. Barometer announced that the Junior class at O. A. C. had voted to do away with guests at Junior week-end. There was no attempt, however, to inter pret the movement editorially. Eliminating the guest feature from Junior week-end is a wise step and the A. S. U. 0. is glad to have a ‘‘second to the motion.” O. A. C. juniors are to be congratulated upon their good judgment. Like Oregon, they have decided to keep many of their usual activities for the enjoyment of the campus. We wonder a little, however, at the fact that a class in itself was able to do away with such an important tradition without consulting the student body. They may, however, have ‘‘re ceived instructions.” We wonder more, however, at the ap parent reversal of the Barometer opinion on the subject. GRADUATE STUDENTS OFFERED FELLOWSHIPS Pennsylvania to Make Awards to Those Wishing to Make Advanced Research The University of Pennsylvania has recently issued an announce ment of scholarships and fellow ships open to graduate students in international law and diplomacy, physics, and other branches of ad vanced research. Through the bequest of $80,000 left by the lute Frederic C. Pen field, Jr., formerly ambassador of the United States to Austria, there hnve been furnished two scholar ships of $2,000 each in diplomacy, international affairs and belles iettres. Candidates for these are required to have had at least one year of graduate work in addition to their B. A. degree and the awards will ordinarily be made to students who wish to study abroad, but it is left to the executive com mittee of the graduate school to decide whether the holder of the scholarship shall remain at the Uni versity or travel abroad for his work. Application for this scholar ship should be sent to Dean Her man V. Ames, Graduate School, University of Pennsylvania, before March 1 and announcement of awards will be made about a month later. About fifty additional fellowships j for work in the graduate school are offered at Pennsylvania, with stip ends varying from $1,500 to $2,000 i each and carrying exemption from1 tuition and laboratory fees. Fur ther information and application blanks may be obtained from the dean of the graduate school at Pennsylvania. All fellowships are open to graduates of any university or college of recognized standing, j WILLAMETTE STUDENTS VOTE LETTER AWARDS Willamette University.— (by P. 1. N.

T ONE YEAR AGO TODAY? j Some High Points In Oregon | Emerald of February 8, 1923 o--— Kappa Alpha Theta leads the list for fall house grades with a 2.94 average. Fire hazards in the fraternities and sororities on the campus are not so great as they were two years ago, Horace Sykes, deputy fire marshal, said yesterday. A move on the part of the alumni for more members on the executve council was recognized by the stud ent council last night. A general exposition on the prob lems of the Near East and their relations to the problems of Europe | and the United States will be the subject of Dr. Charles Upson Clark’s address today. The Aggies hold the lead in the Pacific Coast conference race for basketball honors. They have won six games and lost one. Oregon has won four hud lost three. To-Ko-Lo now has 26 new fresh men members. Editorial in today’s Emerald says “Without lotting anyone know about it, President Campbell has given more than $25,000 to the university since he has been here. The true friends of education are those who do not ask for personal credit.” * The girl’s varsity debate team now consists of Lurline Coulter, Margaret Duerner, Frances Simp son and May Fenno.

It must be understood that the editor reserves the right to reject communications. ♦-<> The Old School Speaks To tho Editor: Tn last Sunday’s Emerald Larry Hartmus blossomed out as the cham pion of modern garbage-can litera ature. This writer with the assis tance of his Webster’s unabridged, attacked W. S. .T. for his Victorian ideals and valiantly defended such eminent novels as “.Turkem” by Cable, and “Black Axes,” by Etherton. Following the example of Mr. V. V. Oak in using biblical texts in his letters to the Emerald, I interject this communication with the cry, “O Lord, how long must I abide it?” How jong must we face each week in the Sunday Emerald reviews of concupiscent books of the so-called modernist school which serves no pur pose but that of putrefaction of cam pus thought and living? The books I condemn are known to all students on the campus; indeed, they are to bo found in almost every student house. Worse yet, they are to be found on the circulation shelves of the University library! When the library, that last bulwark of conser vatism and respectability, is swept off its feet by the modernist tide, it is full time for sane-minded students; to protests. One would think a college student had no conception of the ,ioys of a Victorian novel or the work of Aeschylus. One would think the realism of Fielding or Richardson had never been discovered, and that literature was just coming into its own with the advent of “weak mind ed” libidinous contributions of to today. Student attention in the Sunday Emerald has been centered latelv on modern literature alone. These would be reviews appearing in the columns of our paper rave on and on, and their ravings would lead an outsider to believe that rationalism. Postmint, and conventionality had been lost to the world. And the motive of this writing is only to remind any by standers that, unappreciated as our views may be, there remain in this fast accelerating world some few de votees of literature “as she wui in the good ol’ days.” Vic. Vixer. and Vixen. Poor Taste Shown To the Editor: The man who made the announce ment about “dime crawls” following the splendid address of Hr' H. H. Sheldon at assembly yesterday cer tainly showed poor taste to the nth degree. The announcement concerning the ban .on clapping "at the beginning of- the services, the quiet tone of the speaker and the sincere feeling shown throughout made any mention of fri volity entirely out of place. The idea of the “crawls” is all right and will probably net some money for the organization that is staging it, but the announcements in the Emerald that will announce the the event would have been sufficient without spoiling a memorial service. Indignant. MISS EDGINGTON BETTER Letter From Alumni Secretary Says Visit Has Been Beneficial A recent letter from Grace Edging ton, alumni secretary and editor of “Old Oregon,” brings word to the campus that she is still enjoying a rest at Seaside, Oregon, where she has been for nearly two weeks. Miss Edgington was forced to leave her office for a short time on account of her health, but expects to be back on duty next week, she says. Her letter describes the beach as very stormy, but in spite of this she is enjoying it, and her health is im proving. She is visiting Marian Bowen, a recent graduate of the Un iversity, who is working in the office of the Red Cross association at Astoria.
