Their discussion was higluninded! The first senior said, “Why doesn’t your house run Bill X for Executive council? He’s popular, and I believe he would gee it.” “Yes, I think Bill could be elected but I don’t think he is the man for the .iob. He’s the only man we have who would stand a chance but he hasn’t the stuff to justify his running,” the second senior said. This is an incident that actually happened and strange enough it typifies to some extent the general attitude toward this year’s elections. Whether it was the unifying spirit of the Student Union drive or whether it is a result of “the changing Oregon” that creates such a sentiment it is impossible to say, but in view of what is happening we would say that Oregon organizations are, to some extent at least, realizing that their responsibility to the A. S. U. O. requires that they run only men who can fill the bill. There will always be jealousies between organizations; the idea of having a representative in power appeals to every loyal organization member. There are still plenty of evidences of this attitude. The Emerald does not think anything millennial has taken place. Not yet is everyone fighting for the other’s interests. The Emerald merely believes that the caution and apparent good spirit that is being shown before candidates are pushed forward is a good omen. The fact that the man’s qual ifications are considered in many instances above his apparent chance for victory is, to say the least, a hopeful sign. At the Theatre* l REX 'll'1’ Sam Wood Paramount pro luction, ‘ • Bluff, ’ ’ which opens to day for two days at the Rpx, is a story of New York city, with its fashionably liotyils, F/tli avenuie, modiste shops and its bluff—a ro mantic melodrama with many light comedy twists, produced after the usual fashion of the man who made “ProdSgal Daughters,” f'Ulive beard’s Eighth Wife,” "His Chil dren’s Childreu,” and "The Next Corner,” and featuring Agnes Ayres and Antonio in th principal roles. Mass Ayres, as Hetty Hallowed, has a hard time making New York recognize her genius as a designer of gowns. The big city has her almost beaten until she gets the idea of putting up a big front and bluffing her way to fame and for tune. From this point on, the story builds to a big dramatic cli max, with Antonio Moreno, playing Robert Fitzmnurice, a young attor ney, furnishing much of the drama A cast of all big names plays in support of the leading players in this production. There are Rescue Karas, E. 11. Calvert, Clarence Burton, Fred Butler and others just, ns well known. Willis Hold beck, who prepared the continuity for “Scaramouche,” wrote the scenario.

ROSES, WALLFLOWERS AND REGARDS To the editor: When one receives “plauditory substance” through a publication, as elsewhere, he naturally wishes to “reciprocate”; at least acknowl edge. I would, therefore, like to thank Mr. Jack Blis3 for the beautiful “roses” handed to me in his let ter to the Emerald of April 19. You ask me, Jack, to consider “that each institution the country over has its own customs and ideials.” Do you consider, then, that it is the custom here at Oregon to throw stones at anyone who lets slip anything of a eulogistic nature concerning O. A. C.f If I didn’t know that the true “Oregon spirit” is not such a spirit, I should ac cept your “kind adios.” However, I realize that there is, in every college or university (even O. A. C.) a few who cannot tolerate institutional praise unless it is aimed directly at their own “dear Alma Mater.” Knowing this to be a very human and natural weakness, I for give you, Jack, for your “un-Ore gon-like” attitude. Perhaps you lost something on the “Homecom ing” game. I can sympathize with you, old man. So did I! “RAB” RE AVIS.
