That day, November 11, 1018, was the occasion of the most magnificent7,celebration the nation has ever experienced. Every omfremembers how the dispatches of allied successes threw the nation into frenzied joy. With the signing of the armistice one hundred million people found themselves m a wild carnival To many the cessation of hostilities meant victory over the enemy The allies, with the timely aid of America had tri umphed over the enemy; the spoils of war were to be,theirs; ^ Others felt a bit differently. They knew that no nation can emerge a winner by fighting a bitter war; and while su premely happy that our nation had not become vanquishe , they were thankful far more that peace had been restored Some of them, too, paused to honor those that had fallen, and to give thanks that no more should be lost. . In the period that has passed since that day America has reaped the fruits of peace. The nation has passed through an eventful but withal a prosperous succession of years, a post war extravagance soon giving way to a discouraging depression, but that too soon drawing away. Today America stands, the envy of all nations. , ,, ,, .,. Yet America is not without her problems—problems that are sorely perplexing her leaders. When young America con siders the bountiful fortunes that have been bestowed upon her and considers also the work to be done, she may well pause on this anniversary of her newest freedom to take cognizance of her responsibility, and to honor those men and women that have made this anniversary possible. Oregon’s Graduate Manager Receives Honor Probably the worst job around a university is that of grad uate manager of student activities. Few jobs can compare ■with that one for measily, insignificant, perplexing details that drive a man well nigh to distraction. No one around a university loves the graduate manager because he is the one that always must tell the impatient mob that it can’t have what it oughn’t to have have. He holds the student body purse strings and it’s a royal fight for him to> keep three thousand students and many times more alumni from scattering wride the gold pieces. The fact that Jack W. Benefiel is chairman of a committee to arrange the East versus West football game at the Pasadena New Year’s Tournament of Roses, and as such will have charge of arrangements for the game including the selection of the Western representative team, brings to mind that Oregon has a very capable executive for her graduate manager. Mr. Bene fiel is to be congratulated on the trust implied by his appoint ment. Comment; From Other Schools Because of the increased number of students, the University of 'Wash ington is facing the prospect of sop* arnte assemblies for upperclassmen and lower division students, their assembly hall holding only about ft third of the student body. • « • ELIMINATING THE ‘ BIGGER AND—” Dr. Edwin Alderman, president of Virginia University, may uncon sciously bo offering a solution for the overcrowded conditions in Amer ican colleges and universities when he states confidently that within twenty-five years intelligence and psychological tests will constitute the basis for student selection. Ho characterizes the present entrance requirements as "wooden and too formal. ” What would we do without tho dumb sisters? WHAT CAN DR,. ALDERMAN SAST TO THIS? . Word comes from Stanford that incoming froshmeit are becolming more intelligent each year, if fig ures compiled from| entrance intelli gence tests mean anything. Many big guns at college make poor reports.—Ex. HOW ABOUT THE GRADS? The University of Iowa reports that 10:i railroad cars were neces sary to handle the crowd of 7,000 that came by rail to the homecom ing at Iowa City. We wonder—will the time come when the returning grad must have a card bearing hi? intelligence test standing before he will be permitted to witness the homecoming football g.ilmef Or attend the homecoming luncheon? A SUBJECT FOR DR. ALDERMAN First Coed—I'm taking Anthro pology. Second Ditto—What's that?

We feel that Randall, who is said to be writing a book on his experiences and nar row) escapes while serving in his last position on the campus, is in need of so useful and beautiful a piece of furniture as this, and fur thermore we realize that as Randall has taken upon himself a spouse, he will welcome such a gift as an aid in furnishing his new home. * »■ » Deer Stewdents, etc.: After reeding the cumback of my oposer I felt very sorry that my ar giment affected him so.

To the Editor: Harold Vinal, New York pub lisher, author of three promising books of verse, editor of the verse magazine, “Voices,” and acknow ledged leader of America’s young poets, is travelling westward. The j University of Oregon he desires to j include on his log of literary engage-i ments. It is advisable that the literary student committee should exert sin cere efforts to bring him to the campus. He will be more valuable to our local writers than were Lind say and Sandburg, for he is fired with the buoyancy of youth and sparkling lyricism. Especially is Vinal interested in fostering the po tentialities of the rising poets. Thus far he has published in “Voices” several poems by Margaret Skavlan, Marie Stewart and Walter Kidd, along with many other state poets.

The Oregana RUSHING INVESTIGATION BEFORE COMMITTEE At the last meeting of the Inter Fraternity Council, a committee was appointed to . study the situation of - rushing as it now exists in fra ternities here, and to report on changes that seem advisable. “Very few rules are used, here,” stated Dean Walker, faculty adviser to the council. “Heretofore rules have been based mostly on the honor system, but now that the number of fraternities has increased consider ably many think that more strin gent rules should be enforced.” Carlton Spencer, registrar, ex plained the present system of fra ternity grading and the system of withdrawing to the council and presented it to the members for vote. It .was decided to continue the present system as no better one could be suggested. A permanent program committee was also created to arrange a defin ite program for each meeting and thus enable the council to discuss matters of importance to the school and students at every meeting. This will enable the Inter-Frater nity Council to cover a greater field of activity during the year. EDUCATION CLUB TO MEET The Education club will hold a meeting next Thursday night. Prof. P. S. Spencer will speak on an ex haustive study in arithmetic, and C. J. Shambaugh, a graduate stu dent completing master degree work this term, will have for his topic, “Vocabularies of Ancient Histories Used in High Schools.” Both of these men have highly interesting speeches prepared and all members of the club should be present.
