Several students were seated about the fraternity fireplace discussing the laws of the state and the nation. In general, fliis discussion was in the form of a “razz” of the existing order—this official of the government was the “bunk,” and that official of the government-was the “bunk,” these laws were surely the work of insane minds, and those laws were most certainly the product of pure imbeciles. And so they talked. But one of this family of “crabbers” had an idea, as he dozed there before the glowing embers, listening mechanically to the vindicative stream flowing so easily from his fellows, or nodded unconscious assent to arguments particularly em phasized by a sudden high pitch of voice and a determined crash of fist on the arm of an overworked rocker. He roused himself with interest awakened. “Say, fellows, how many of you voted at the last elections?” And the fire leaped and crackled amusedly in the answer ing silence.

Dr. George Rebec will give an address of welcome, and various graduate students will speak on problems and matters of interest to the members of the organization. The affair is to be entirely infor mal. If any student has been over looked, Dr. Rebec asks that he con sider himself invited, and come anyway. The dinner will be seventy-five cents a plate. It is desirable that all those who wish to attend, will telephone Mrs. W. H. Maxhain at 139 J, in the evening, or the office of the Dean during the afternoon.

The decision was very closely contested, seven men going out for the honor. Sol was the winner of the Jewett prize of $15 awarded at an extem porary speaking contest held at Ore gon'last year. He was active in de bating and in other activities in the public speaking department last year, which was his first on the campus. The speeches for the try-outs were on the subject of the power of the federal courts to declare acts of con gress unconstitutional and each speaker was given some particular phase of the subject an hour before the try-out was held. He then pre pared a talk on this particular idea. The subject for the Pacific coast extemporary speaking contest at Stanford will be the same one and in the same way each contestant will be given bis particular phase of the matter just an hour before the con test. The date of the affair has not as yet been set. The try-outs for the team which will debate against O A. C. will debate against O. A. C. have not been completed. Some of the men were given their trial Monday and some Tuesday afternoon. The third trial will be held tonight at 7:30, after which the final decision will be made. A number of men liavoj turned out to try for the team, so they could not all be handled in one afternoon.

HOMECOMING WILL BE THEME IN OLD OREGON Humor and Sport Sections Are to be Features The Homecoming number of “Old Oregon” will be issued on the cam pus the first of next week. The magazine, which is larger than usual, will be sent to all alumni whether they have subscribed or not, and will be given to all living organizations on the campus. It is the last editions which will bg. sent free to alumni this year. The humor section will be a homocoming feature in itself since all the jokes are taken from Ore ganas and Webfoots from 1903 up to the present time. The jokes will recall old classmates to the alums, because each joke uses names of former students. The sectipn is il lustrated with homecoming car toons by Warren Small. The poet ry section, edited by Margaret Skavlan, has contributions from several alumni. Webster Jones’ sport section will have in addition to other news a message to grads from Joe Maddock and an article by Bill Hayward on the Olympic games. Other assistants of this is sue are Mrs. Mary Watson Barnes and Inez King. Tho cover is a picture of Villard and Deady land is therefore ap plicable to the issue, since those two buildings are usually thought of first by returning grads.

Grand Master Coshow will discuss plans for the dedication of the new home of the Craftsman, to be held on Sunday afternoon of Homecoming week-end, with members of the local committee in charge. The dedication was to fcve been held on October 17, but because of delay in the de livery of furniture it was found ne cessary to postpone it.

It is hoped that the original- founders, some of whom are still on the campus, will also be present. , Many prominenjt Masons of Oregon, including the of ficers of the grand lodge of the state, will take part in the cere monies. The new home of the club, built during the summer on Fourteenth be tween Alder and Kincaid, was fi nanced by the grand lodge of Ore gon, and the property was given by the Masons of Eugene.
