DaOy News Editor This Issue # Night Editor This Issue Anna Jerzyk Jalmar Johnson Assistant .Jack O’Meara Students and Automobiles RULING has been drafted at Indiana University to be submitted for faculty action which, if passed, will prohibit all students from operating cars in Bloomington. Reasons given are two-fold: relief of congested traffic in the town, and removed of temptation tending to lower scholastic standing of students. “The Indiana Daily Student,’ student body daily, points at these premises with a grin of derision which finally develops into a howl of protest. "It states, and wdtli cause, that a city j should be able to handle its traffic problems without restricting j the use of automobiles to any certain class or classes, further remarking that the addition of a few cars belonging to the students should not be enough to warrant any serious alarm. On the grounds that students owning cars tend to have lower grades, the “Student” suggests that it “might” be ad visable to establish a standard grade to be met before one could take his machine upon the streets. It neglects to mention how such a ruling could be enforced, however. 1 “The next step, logically,” it contends, “would be to pro hibit attendance at downtown theatres or athletic contests; for they,- too, are stumbling blocks* in the vay of studying if one chooses to consider them aS such.” ' The comments of the “Student” are not without worth, al though such action as proposed by the faculty seems rather severe under the circumstances. It cannot be denied that the student owned automobile is a problem, however, and must be considered. Bringing the question froip Indiana to Oregon, it is not hard to see that a similar situation may occur. The number of machines about the University campus to the most casual of ob servers i» noticeably greater this year. This statement is borne out by the need of increased parking space, and the consequent provisions which are being made. Several times this fall, students have* been haled into court for violation of traffic ordinances, and the consequent pub licity. particularly when the charge is reckless or careless driv- j ing, docs not leave a pleasant after-taste, either in the mouth j of the “victim,” or his fellow students. One suggestion only seems needed to prevent a possible re-J action similar to the one oecuring at Indiana University, with its consequent trouble arising from that attempt to curtail! students’ rights as citizens -reasonable caution in driving and observance of the traffic laws Campus Bulletin Notices will be printed in this column for two issues only.

WASTE W’OOD UTILIZATION DEMONSTRATION WTTNESSEU A demonstration of waste wood utilization was witnessed by Profes sor O. F. Stafford of the chemistry department, recently. In this ex hibition, waste wood brought from Fresno, California, to Modesto, was used to make illuminating gas. The gas produced was sufficiently high in heat units to be readily adapt able for use iu the home. Profes sor Stafford, who has been very much interested in the waste wood problem, believes that the demon stration proves there is a great op portunity to utilize some of our abundant wood waste as a substi- 1 tute for the expensive gas-making materials now in use. Although the wood-gas is .slightly lower in the number of heat units per cubic foot, than that used at ’ present, it can be sold at a price which will cause no loss to the con sumer. The gas can be made from any kind of waste wood. The Mo desto demonstration was performed with sugar pine.

PATRONIZE EMERALD ADVERTISERS UNEEDA PRESSING CLUB Phone 1827 — 684 Olive St, Fashionably smooth hair , This has caused the great change in the appearance of men’s hair YOU cannot go into a classroom, or a club, or a fraternity house, without no ticing it— Somehow, college men have found a way to make the hair, the most conspicuous part of the appearance, look just as they want it to look at all times. It was not always so. Before Stacomb was intro duced, they tried countless methods to make their hair lie smoothly and stay that way —from old-fashioned po mades, which only matted the hair and made it greasy, to plain water, which kept it in place an hour at the most and then left it drier and more brittle than ever. Small won der that they greeted Sthcomb with such instant enthusiasm! Here at last was something that would make the hair stay in place without harming it or making it sticky and unnatu^ ral-lookjng Today the great change which Stacomb has brought about is no ticed everywhere. Men whose hair used to be out of place an hour after being brushed, men whose other wise correct appearance used to be spoiled by hair that was hopelessly unkempt—today they keep their hair constantly in perfect order. UsaStacomb tomorrow morning— and look your best all day. A deli cate, invisible cream. Non-staining and non-greasy.
