Edgar Lee Masters ^NOTHER poet. Edgar Lee Masters will be heard on the campus in the Woman’s building on the evening of March 9, brought here by the lecture committee of the Associated Students. He is the fourth poet to appear under the same aus pices. The campus treasures delightful memories of Yachel Lind say reading “The Congo,” “The Chinese Nightingale,” and doing the potatp dance in the most charming fashion. The campus remembers Carl Sandburg of the melancholy eyes and poems of steel and blood, who turned troubadour for an eve ning and sang and chanted to music from his guitar. Last year there was John Neihardt shaking liis heavy-mane of hair over his “Poet's Town,” and dining and talking with1 the students. Mr. Masters is running true to poetic form by coming with the spring. He does not, however, write pink poems for pale people, as anyone who lias read his “Spoon River Anthology” well knows. Let us welcome him as a poet and a personality. Th’e Shadow Before £J0M1NG events, it is said, cast their shadow before. This certainly is true of Junior week-end, .which, though it comes late in the spring, is even now being planned by the committee in charge. The student body sees the shadow with certain feel ings of anticipation, for Junior week-end is one of the distinctly Oregon traditions. Traditions just as traditions have no savory flavor, but Junior week-end is one of the most cherished. Homecoming, is another which contains genuine spice. A half century is a com- j paratively youthful age for a university to develop time-honored i traditions. Compared to really ancient universities—the veil-1 erable names of Bolonga, Oxford, the University of Paris—we have not even progressed to an easily designated adolescence. Our traditions, the habits of the infant University, must there fore receive careful attention. Much of the beauty and dignity of customs which grow up ! about universities and colleges has its beginning in the elimin- j ation of things which do not count, and the establishing of those J whch do count on a firmer basis. Last year the decision to j eliminate wholesale invitations to high school students through out the state added much to the general good by eliminating confusion. This did not mean that the University took an un- | hospitable attitude toward these visitors, but that it disap proved of the hit and miss system of entertainment, and the continued presence of th(> "professional Junior week-ender." And so the festivities were safeguarded, as they should continue to be as occasions arise. When the Well Runs Dry h.OHUL II. C. Smythe, the Canadian canoeist who re-.1 cently jumped into the Seine with his canoe from the Invalides bridge, today started on a voyage to Rome in his diminutive craft. Smythe will paddle up the Seine as far as the river Yonne and by that stream will reach the Burgundv canal,—0 * j —News Item. All of which reminds the young students that the dire di sease of spring fever has been reached, without hopes of an anti-toxin. The weather improves, and the mill race, which, for a long time continued in a dry and unfortunate state, is itself again. Now that the water has been turned back into the historic place for it according to all good Oregon songs, it will be the more appreciated and enjoyed. And as for founts of learn ing—! t Campus Bulletin Notices will be printed in this column for two issues only. Copy must be in this office by 5:30 on the day before it is to be published, and must be limited to 20 words. _ — Women’s Athletic Association— Meeting for all present members and for all now eligible to mem bership at 5 o’clock, room 121, Woman’s building.
