By retaining-the most valu able portions of both the Frosh Parade and the Underclass Mix, the Sophomore-Junior commit tee, through authority granted by the Student Council, has perfected an institution that should accomplish far more than the results obtained by the two distinct events. * * * » The Underclass Mix was tottering. Designed originally to imbue Oregon men and women with patriotism for their Class and University, the Mix gradually became a mere good-natured scrap with no significance and with barely enough principals and spectators to carry on the proceedings. * * * * A comprehensive program, under the new Parade-Mix, has been arranged. The route of the Parade is to be shortened, with the assembly at the “O” on Skinner’s butte, rather than at the University. While time for chastise ment is shortened, one is inclined to believe that ample opportunity will be given the Soph omores for the breaking in of new and better instruments of torture. A speeding up of the stroke will do the trick. » * » » From the Butte the Frosh are to be trans ported, by foot, and via the Seal, to Hayward, where the Mix takes place. The Frosh at that point will have an opportunity to show their mettle; and in the Mix, re-vamped, there lie the possibilities for a final moulding of true ‘Oregon Men.’ # * * * Yale University, oldest of American colleges, maintains an ancient tradition similar to Ore gon’s combined Parade-Mix. It is called the “Bush,” and takes place one of thift first nights of the school year. * « • • # - i Some Yale man has written: “When Fresh-mun first we came to Yale Foil, de roll, de roll, roll, roll Ex-zam-in-a-shuns made us pale, Foil, de roll, de roll, roll, roll!” The foregoing, however, is not precisely true. The ‘paleness’ comes from the word ‘rush* which is whispered about with respectful awe almost as soon as the Freshmen arrive at the University. It is an event of great magnitude in the life on an Eli Yale freshman. The night it takes .place is a large night for all; there is the snake dance in the light of calcium fires, led by the “Y” men; the fresh man-sophomore wrestling matches; and finally the Bush, when the Freshmen attempt to force the Sophomores from their fence. Out of the fracas the Freshmen emerge, united as a class, and no longer strangers in the Uni versity. From the assembly comes the famous Yale roar: “Bulldog! Bulldog! Bow-Wow-Wow! Eli! Yale!” As long as Yale men live, they cannot hear that chant without experiencing a genuine thrill. They were made Yale men, in the Eusli, overnight. So it will lie with the Parade-Mix. For years Oregon men have gone through the Pa rade and the Mix, and have, somewhat painful but most eternally, learned of Oregon’s tradi tions. Combining the two presents a wonder ful opportunity to initiate Oregon Frosh into the secrets of ‘Oregon Spirit’—that intangible substance essential to all Oregon Men. TO THE EDITOR The Year’s Outlook THE OREGON Student Body may well anti cipate a promising year in the realm of music. Bean Landsbury, Mrs. Thatcher, and Mr. Underwood, with other members of the musical school faculty, have returned from a successful visit, abroad, bringing with them a renewed vitality for the ensuing year. With the increase in registration there is undoubt edly an increase in new talent. Furthermore the" artists tt> visit this campus this year are of high calibre. While in Europe, we are proud to know, Mr. Underwood received’ a “virtuoso" prize which was tendered him at Fountainbleau for _ his superior playing. This prize is rarely given and only those wh’o are considerably advanced can compete for it. * * * * During the course of the year there will bo school. It is safe in saying that they tfill be well worth attending. The enrollment at the music school, like all the 'other departments of the university, is larger than ever before; and under the capable guidance of the musical fac ulty much can be expected. It is refreshing to know that the three artists coming to the University this year are among the finest. Anna Case, who is familiar to the campus, is to be here. Friedman, a brilliant and scholarly pianist, will make his first ap pearance in Eugene. His artistry is known throughout the world, and Oregon is fortunate and worthy of having him. Kochanski, a ver satile and sensational violinist, will also make his appearance here. He comes with many glories behind him. The Barrier little sym phony, the finest little symphony in the world, is to be here. We need more music and finer music. The outlook for this year seems to indicate that we are going to get it.—M.

Next Sunday, the Sabbath, is a day of rest Truly, with .the Parade, the Mix, the Mult nomah game, and Open House, it can be no other. The effects of the last named, probably, are the most lasting in more ways than one. * * * * Open House. Let us pray to the Powers that Be make the route as short as possible. If transportation be provided—well and good, but unfortunately most of us dislike walking. SEVEN SEER S Today—The Ten Plagues If you think this column’s dreary, You don’t know the half'.of it, dearie. There, beginning the day with such a cheery little inott we ’ll settle down to the more austere business of announcing to the campus the names of those lucky souls who have been seen with favor by the All-Seeing Eye. Let it be known primarily, that these persons can never hope to attain the exalted positions that We, their su perior officers hold, but will remain in humble rank (quite rank) below TJs. However, it must not be ignored* that these persons have attained some achievement, and because of these merits listed after their names, We give them the honor of joining Our Tong. Therefore, the Almighty Order of Seven Seers, that blo-ws all, sees all, nominates to their order the following persons: Tom Murray of Salem, because he was a leader of men, because he did his own cook ing while on his vacation, and because he finally returned to civilization because he was too lazy to -walk any farther to elude the officers. Don Marquis because he has a cockroach and isn’t ashamed of it, because he’s a columnist like Us and because We feel sorry for him. Mary Jo Shelley, because she writes poetry and lives in Michigan, and because, although she goes all the way bach to Mich, again during the summer, she comes back to Oregon and writes more poetry. Dick Smith, because he doesn’t Charles ton, and because he holds the whip hand over every ox on the team. Miss America, because she went to At lantic City, and because sbe wins all the prizes. r Bob Mautz, because he’ll practise law with the same implements with which he plays football, because he doesn’t qhajce hands (this is sincere), and because he’d make a good coxswain. Will Rogers, because he’s a dam good joe and doesn’t give a dam. Lee Luders, because she doesn’t either. The Trans-Pacific Fliers, because they’re the only government officials to use a still and have a good enough excuse to get away with it, and because they stuck to their diet longer than we can. Paul Patterson, because he’s lived in Se attle many years and doesn’t show any ef fects of it yet; because he may graduate sometime. Let it be known, though, among you fortunate ones, that with the election to membership to night, only seven of the above plagues can be written clown on Our Great Book—three names must be wiped from the list. To fairly determine this the Seers engage in a solemn game of ten pins in the Bowling alley on Ninth street. Each pin is named, and stood up against the wall, and those three to fall by the black ball, are those who will not make the Lodge." * * * * Let it be known that among our Brotherhood there is strife. Sahib Allah Mancu-sh, the handsomest, of our Seers, whose beard is the longest, and whose tongue speaks sweet sounds into the ears of females, has raised a com plaint because. We refused to grant to nomina tion two nominees he suggested. Needless to say, both are women, both come from Califor nia, one from San Diego and one from Holly wood and both wear fur coats. The fact that they are both women .and wear fur coats is ac ceptable, but because the Order has alreadv mini mated Miss America, who, is likewise a native daughter. We feci We’re giving the state all the publicity that’s coming to it. Brother Orlando Y. Bingh will conduct the column tomorrow. He is the fifth and wisest of Our Seers. Cheerio! (Signed) BJORK.
