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.

UNIVERSITY GRADUATE
TO RETURN TO. CAMPUS
A letter has been received by Dr.
| Edwin T. 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.

i required to give the final examina
j tions. The last of these five ex

K. A. P. 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.

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

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.
