Let’s Build It! T>ROBABLY few students have given much thought to the * difficulties which confront a basketball coach at Oregon when he wishes to have his squad practice. Many students have1 taken it for granted that since the floor of the Men’s gym-| nasium has a basket at each end, the Varsity men merely have to don their suits, run upstairs, and learn to pass the ball and’ throw baskets. The men might learn to pass the ball and to throw baskets, in the gymnasium easily enough, but they would not become orienated to the distances and angles of the Armory floor— and the Armory floor is where the conference contests are held. It is vital that a team should know its home floor, and know it well. To do this, the men must practice pn it constantly. The Armory is off the campus a considerable distance, mak ing it unhandy to r.each; valuable time is lost in going between it and the campus, and the floor is not always available for practice when it is needed. The 0. A. C. game must be played there this afternoon, rather than on Friday evening, because the University could not obtain the Armory in the evening this week. Despite tjiis handicap, Coach Reinhart this year has devel oped a team Oregon has reason to feel proud of. There is no doubt that a basketball pavilion on the campus would greatly enhance Oregon’s chance to continue building such squads every year. With this idea in mind the athletic finance committee Tuesday passed a motion recommending that the president of the student body appoint a committee to present plans for fi nancing such a structure. The suggested building will be planned for accomodating about 5,000 spectators. With the growing interest in basket ball on the Pacific coast, such provision is highly advisable. Over 500 persons were turned away from the Armory when O. A. C. met the Varsity here. There is every reason why this structure should be com pleted by next year. It will largely depend on the support of the student body and the interest shown by its members. The pavilion is badly needed. Let’s have it! Get Out, Please! J^JOT SO very long ago possession of a book was regarded with a degree of pride. Possession of several books was con sidered sufficient cause for no small amount of elation. Access to a library filled with thousands of valuable and interesting volumes was a privilege eagerly sought; much envied—by those less fortunate. With the growth and development of the printing press and gigantic publishing concerns, however, books have ceased to be a curiosity and a treasure, and instead, have fallen into the place of accepted and common articles, like the tooth-brush, the automobile, and co-ed galoshes. With the growth of the University, also, a number of care less, thoughtless, or malicious, students have drifted into the Oregon student body. Not so very long ago, when books were revered and the stu dents were few in number, valuable volumes did not have to be placed in the Library vault to prevent complete violation of student honor by some of its members. Librarians, in checking over such volume would not have discovered priceless plates and rare illustrations removed by vicious penknives. Books were not helpless prey then; then were sacred. “Familiarity breads contempt,’’ it is said. If true, books should be one of the exceptions to this rule, which prove it. “Contempt’’ is a colorful word, full of meaning. We fell con temptuous for those who desecrated their privileges and the Library books. They drifted into the student body without our knowledge; they are invited to drift out in the same manner. Publication of the examination schedule yesterday reminds that little time remains of this term. Better brush the dust off the typewriter and finish any uncompleted term papers before the printers get out the scandal sheet forms and clean them up for the press. Ho for the game today!
