Entered u weond class matter at the post office at Eugene, Oregon, under act
11 Congress of March t, 1879,
Let’s Be Sure!
rJ~'HIS afternoon the recently appointed traditions committee
will meet to discuss the present mooted question concern
ing smoking on the old campus. It is presumed the members
will decide on some definite plan at this time which will be
presented to the student council this evening for action.
In addition to consideration of the “smoke—or no smoke”
controversy, if it may be termed in such a way, the committee
will take up the whole subject of traditions at Oregon- and it is
not unreasonable to expect that the recommendations it will
make to the representative body of the students tonight may
have much to do with the future of traditions here at the Uni
versity. Customs such as these, the product of a gradual evo
lutionary process, really cannot be made or unmade so simply
as by the student council merely voting “aye” and “nay” how
ever. * 1
Should the council vote to lift the ban on campus smoking,
which the Emerald most emphatically asserts should not be
done, there will be a very considerable group of students, inter
ested persons certainly, who will be the object of a great in
justice. It seems that this is a matter for consideration by the
entire student body, whose will can best be ascertained in this
instance at a general election, as, for instance, at the annual
spring affair scheduled for next month.
“Mr. Tarrytons” suggestion of designating certain “safety
zones” for smokers appears on the face to be a most feasible
and sensible method of allowing such schools as art and archi
tecture, wjiere work shop conditions prevail, the proper free
dom without endangering a very desirable custom and under
mining its strength through disregard.
In view- therefore, of the fact that much depends upon the
council's action concerning traditions, The Emerald suggests
to the body, after threshing out the committee report and agree
ing upon an essential and fundamental policy for the future ob
servance of traditions, consider its action as not final. Rather,
after accepting the report, either in the original or amended
as it sees fit, the student council in justice to the campus should
vote to refer the entire question for consideration at the spring
polls. .•
Kings and Things
j£ING Sisowatti of Cambodia, at 92, is starting from his
Asiatic kingdom on a trip around the world, we are in
formed by a eaption in Current Opinion. He is, presumably, the
oldest living monarch in the world. The king of Cambodia, how
ever, has nothing on certain seniors who are looking forward
to graduation and a trip out into the world in June. Many of
them, like the venerable king, have advanced considerably in
age—grown hoary with the weight of ruling. Their reigns
include sundry offices—president, high and mighty eagle, or
keeper of the archives of this and that. A few have even at
tempted sallying forth into “the kingdom of mind.’’
The seniors, in leaving- will scarcely be able to equal the
worthy king in one sense: they will not have 2,000,000 subjects
eagerly awaiting their return. They will not leave behind them
46,000 square miles in the care of the keeper of the seals or who
ever signs and ^-als the fate of such territory. They will de
part in peace, taking along a dog-eared Taussig- or such flighty
books as their favorite authors have produced—relics of under
graduate days. There will be pins in plenty, worn as the King
of Cambodia would wear his epaulets —symbol of his lofty rank
and august position.

GIRLS’ TOURNAMENT
ON LINKS RUMORED
Many Signed Up for Golf:
16 May Play
It is Tumored that there will be
a golf tournament for women some
time this term. George Bronaugh,
University golf coach, admits that
prospects are very bright. “Other
schools are holding women’s golf
tournaments, and with the very
evident interest of the University
women in the sport, I see no rea
son why we cannot arrange a tour
nament.”
A number of University women
active in golf this term are play
ing well within the fifties. Wini
fred Winnard, Lillian Luders, Hel
ene Tyroll and Bernice Davies were
mentioned in connection with this
statement.
Out of the 38 women who signed
up for golf at the beginning of this
term, it will be possible to accomo
date only the first 16 on the list.
During the year, on the average of
4 or 5 drop out or are dismissed
from the class and these places are
filled from the waiting list. In
addition to the classes, Mr. Bron
ough has had requests from 40 girls
for private lessons.
Class work is handled in nine
individual lessons. Beginners are
taught fundamental principles
about the grip, the driving swing,
the midiron and mashie. Putting
is left largely to ideas about the
matter. Advanced students are
given work according to their needs.
All class instruction is supplement
ed by a schedule of outside prac
tices.
The work is given upon the uni
versity links. The country club
course also is used by student mem
bers of that organization.

DEAN STRAUB BEPLIES
Editor Emerald:
In this morning’s Emerald, Col
onel Leader says that nearly all
the Oregonians who visited him
said, “Colonel, for the love of
Mike, where’s the nearest liquor
/store. The only honorable excep
tion last year was Dean Straub,
who, of course, knew already.”
Now, ibis is the true story. Last
September, while in Vancouver, B.
C., I did call up Colonel Leader,
but I wanted to know where the
Presbyterian church was. I knew
he would be as good an authority
on that as he was on the question
the other Oregonians asked. The
telephone brought no answer. The
next morning I called again with
out getting a reply.
The sweet-voiced Canadian girl
said, “Are you calling Colonel
Leader?” I said “Yes.” She an
swered, “Call up the jail.” “The
jail,” I said in reply. “Yes,” she
said, “he spends most of his time
there.”
So I called up the jail, and the
jailer said, “No, he is not here
just now.” I asked, “When will he
be in?” He replied, “We expec+ him

[any minute. I can’t understand it;
'he is never away longer than five
days and this is the seventh day of
his absence.” Just as I was about
to hang up he shouted, “Wait a
minute, they are bringing some one
in now. “I heard a great noise,
much theological language being
used, but finally the jailer called
and said, “I thought that was the
Colonel, but only two officers were
bringing this one in, and it gene
rally takes at least six men to
bring the Colonel in.”
I said, “Have you any idea
where he is?” He replied, “No,
but he must be out of town. If
it is important, better call up Vic
toria jail.” This then is the true
but sad storj- of my trip to Van
couver. The next day I went to
the Presbyterian church. Colonel
Leader was not there.
Sincerely yours for the whole truth,
