Welcome—Women Delegates rpHE University of Oregon is pleased to have on its campus the third biennial convention of the Associated Women Students. Such a gathering cannot hut confer benefit upon those meeting here from the various institutions of the country and cannot but leave an impress for good upon the student body of the University in general. A convention of women students of the universities and colleges for the purposes avowed, such as consideration of scholarship, hongr systems and college activities, is significant. It shows the real interest women are taking in active life in problems affecting them and mankind in general, and portends welj for the future, when they have left the relative seclusion The old cry that the wife, if enfranchised, would simply vote of the campus. as the husband seems in a fair way to be thrown absolutely into the discard, along with other narrow doctrines and pinched policies, concerned with attempting to uphold the purported mental differences and capabilities between men and women. More Subtley—Less Noise npilE Emerald heartily approves of the resumption of baseball as a dougli-nut sport, that is, it did until yesterday morn ing ,at six o’clock. From six until seven o’clock, however, there was doubt in Tin- editor s mind, blackness in ins heart, and “blueness” on his sleeping porch. . The porch is several blocks from the diamond at Kincaid field, but such was the noise, hurrah, ejamor, and outcry shouted, bawled, cheered, whooped and bellowed by some ambitious house team, and ap parently frenzied supporters, practising for the coming frays, that, although several blocks intervened as stated, the editor wished that number could be doubled, nay, even trebled. Enthusiasm is a fine thing, doubtless, and no one in this free country of ours should be hampered from setting the alarm clock an hour or so ahead of the usual time of seven, if he desires to practise baseball and develop a good appetite for breakfast. But is it necessary to include lung practice as well? If the desire is to take “those deep breaths” advocated by the “Become a lle-Man” advertisements, surely a little care and patience will enable those taking such courses to follow direc tions without the aid of the vocal chords. Besides, just from the selfish standpoint of the house, it would seem much better strategy not to tell the whole campus just how much it is prac tising. Be more subtle and surprise your opponents! The bridge-tea for the Mary Spiller scholarship fund is scheduled by the Alumni association this afternoon at the Osburn hotel. Many persons consider bridge parties foolish, j tea parties weak, and bridge-teas “rum.” And they have as much right to speculate about such things as the weather man has about the sun and the clouds. And perhaps in this case they are right, which the other often is not. But a bridge-tea to raise money for a scholarship fund redeems itself immediately, iately. The purpose is noble, the cause worthy. The Emerald en courages support for the bridge, strength to the tea. Who said a $f>0 Ford is a poor investment if one wishes a car with pep, power, and punch? Ask the student who cranked one the other day in front of the Co-op without first setting the hand brake. Ask the six fellow students necessary to pull the throbbing wreck off its owner, after it had jumped forward with a growl and a snort, pinning him against another machine. As he said, ruefully rubbing his belt line, “Daisy, for your age, you’ve got some punch!” Many a student in former years has regretted his failure (o purchase an Oregana when the chance was his. The spring irive for the annual is on today. 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.

Hodge from Clare P. Holdredge, a graduate of the geo logy department in 1921. At pres ent Mr. Holdredge is in charge of the development of diamond mines at Tshikapa, Belgian Congo, {but he expects to leave for Belgium I about June 1 on his way to the United States. He expects to ar ! rive at his home near the last of I August. According to his present plans lie will be on the campus dur I ing the fall term working for his master’s degree. “The climate, the niggers, the many little animals that eat on one, and a myriad of other things will get on almost anyone’s nerves if they stay here long enough,” said Mr. Holdredge, speaking of his ex periences in Central Africa. “I will lie very glad when my two years are finished and T can get out for a vacation. I am looking for ward with much pleasure to my homecoming. Such things as plenty of white folks, railway trains, auto mobiles, telephones, theatres, dances, confectionery, and paved roads, are some of the character istics of civilization that will be highly appreciated when I return to them again. (I forgot swimming and walking in the sun without a ten pound hat. Also sleeping without a shroud.) T am very curi ous about this radio business which has spread over the country during my absence.” Tn speaking of a Christmas party he gave this year he said, “It was certainly a cosmopolitan gather ing: five Americans, two Hnglisli men, one Frenchman, one Belgian, one Russian, and two South Afri cans. That is typical of almost every gathering in tjiis (country. Xot long ago five of us sat down to luncheon and we were all of different nationalities. ” SPORTSWRITERS WILL MEET AT ANCHORAGE TODAY NOON The Oregon Sportswriters asso ciation will hold the first meeting of this term this noon at the An chorage, when I Van John P. Bo vard, of the school of physical ed- j pcation. will be the guest of honor. j Bean Bovard will explain the poli- j fies and the work of the school of education to the scribes.

TEAMS CLASH TODAY i Kappa Sigma and Psi Kappa Will Meet in Opener “Play Ball,” the opening sound! of every baseball season, -will be | heard on Cemetery Ridge this af ternoon for the first time this year when the aggregation of sluggers from Psi Kappa tangle with the errorless organization from Kappa Sigma at 4 o’clock. This game, fol lowed immediately by the Friendly hall vs. Beta Theta Pi contest, will officially open the doughnut tourna ment. After two weeks of intensive va cant lot and back-yard training the members of the various teams have signified their readiness to take a swing at the horsehide. Gloves have been oiled, sore arms have disappeared and most of the men have been taking nightly hikes to develop endurance and wind. Thus, the season opens with the teartis in mid-season form and rarin’ to go. The tournament will be played on the straight elimination basis with the victorious team being re ■schedtiled following the termination of the preliminary round. William Sorsby, freshman coach, has made out a list of the freshman aspirants who will be eligible for doughnut competition. This list in cludes the names of freshman team candidates who stand a slight ^chance of making the first string until they have had more actual : competition. After the completion of the doughnut tournament, the men will again try for first team positions and if enough improve iinent is shown they will remain on the squad. Sigma Pi Tau and Phi Delta Theta will tangle in the first game Thursday with Sigma Nu and Phi Kappa Psi following. The rest of the preliminary round will be played Saturday.

WRITES AGAIN To the Editor: I would like to refer the mem bers of the Traditions committee and all others interested in the Smoking Prohibition to page 14 of Judge for April 11, with the sug gestion that they substitute the word “smoking” for “everything.” I would also suggest to Mr. Lucky Tarryton, that he learn the difference between the words humor and sarcasm and that he drop the last mentioned literary form. K. A. P. JUNIOR WOMAN EXPRESSES VIEWS ON CAMPUS SMOKING To the Editor: As a junior woman in this Uni versity I would like to say that I think the smoking prohibition now enforced on the men is one of the silliest bits of adolescent bicker ing that I have heard of in some time. It is one of the thousand and one “thou shalt not’s” that are enforced by office holders who must do something in order to hold their jobs. It is one of those petty sins that; every one breaks when ever he thinks that he can get . away with it. Why in the world we advertise our provincialism by ad hering to it is beyond me. I spent a year on one of the other campuses on the coast where * CLASSIFIED ADS* O-<•> LOST—Pair dark rimmed glasses, call 107. Reward. 2 LOST—Pair horn rimmed glass es on campus Saturday or Sunday.

See Us About That Policy I Emery Insurance Agency 37 9th Ave. W. Phbne Eugene, Oregon smoking was not considered a sin and I must admit that I do not believe their campus any worse than ours even with the added lib erty. The grounds were not bur ied under a heap of cigarette stubs as some would lead us to believe would be the case here. To me the campus was not a mite less at tractive; in fact I feel that it was a much more humane place than js ours simply because the [men were much more natural. They did not have to stand on the curb, like small town bums, and listen to hours of gossip when they smoked. Personally I think the crowded curb of smokers on Thirteenth street one of the most disgusting things I know. One hates to go be tween the library and the Business Ad building because one is always running the gauntlet of loafing men. And the impression to visit ing tourists of all those men in the street is simply undesirable. I don’t see why the traditions committee doesn’t abolish the rule. They seem to have no reason for holding on to it and are no doubt guided by prejudice and procras tination. P. S.
