Day Editor—Geneva Drum Night Editor—John Black I Welcome Home— Alumni of Old Oregon Alumni of Oregon—the active members of the University •welcome you once again. To see you and talk to you and enjoy your companionship once more is giving us the kcenest pieasure If your enjoyment in renewing the friendships of past days is as great as ours is proving to be m meeting you, we know your visit is more than justified; and we rejoice with you. Oregon is much the same as you left it Oregon is bigger always bigger—and some tell us that it is better, this last being a direct result of Dean Straub’s frosh classes As long as Ore gon is Oregon, we all know that the University will be better; for the Oregon spirit does not. permit of stagnation. Bigger—yes, very much bigger, and still bigger. To many who have seen the University pass through the various stages of its growth, the tendency to become ever larger and more bulky seems to carry its peril. The larger, the more limited each indi vidual’s circle, with a consequent trend to toss aside the demo cratic traditions that Oregon has long cherished. Be that as it may, Oregon year by year adds to its enroll ment; and the new task that now confronts the University is to inoculate this ever-expanding group with the attitude. Truly the task is not one to be tossed lightly aside with but a moment’s consideration. The situation is here-has been here for some time—and will remain. Apparently student government is succeeding remarkably well in keeping things as they should be. This fall with a disap pointing football season, the students individually and in mass retain their thoroughly Oregon attitude with never a hint of disloyalty. Oregon undergraduates returned to the University this fall with their heads up and their chest out, and still are carrying themselves in that manner. We believe that today Oregon is much as she has always been. Of course, crowded sidewalks make the‘‘Hello” imprac ticable at times. Some miss the significance of that word; but taken throughout the Oregonian of today is the Oregonian ot y° The Oregon of today is anxious to give you returning men and women the chance of looking deep into our newer Univer sity, and is doubly anxious that you drink richly of our hos pitality To the extent that you enjoy your stay—learn to know us and carry away with you a real desire to come again, we shall be satisfied with our part in Homecoming. The big moment today will be at 1:30 when the kick-off takes place. Some wit has suggested that the championship of two counties is at stake. That may be true enough to one who doesn’t know Oregon. However, wit or wits, the Oregon-Ore gon Aggie game counts more than can be expressed. One must ' be present at the kick-off to appreciate the significance of that annual encounter. “Oreo-on Will Win,” declared the Emerald extra yesterday afternoon. Of course Oregon will win. It is taken for granted that Oregon waxes polite but very rough with our rivals. The Frosh did well in getting the fire up at the last minute. They are now permitted, by an ancient Oregon custom, to begin thinking up stories to tell the next Frosh class. “Now when 1 was a Frosh—” __ REQUIRED READING LIST OUTLINED BY TEACHERS A list of books, principally from English literature, but including se lections from the classics of other European nations,., is., being pre pared by Dr. Rudolf Ernst and Prof. 8. Stephenson, who are in charge of tho general literature de partment, a section of the Eng lish department. Majors in the course will bo required to read these classics. They will be examined in them at the end of the course, more in criticism than in knowledge of the subject matter. “The pur pose is to develop a critical scale in dealing with books. Wo hope to get the students to acquire some senso of tho values in literature; we think that they can best ac quire both taste and judgment by doing intensive reading,” said Pro fessor Smith. DIERDOBF IN SOUTH DAKOTA A letter has been received from Johnny Diordorff, ’22. He is at present working on a campaign for funds for the University of South Dakota. The University is attempt ing to raise $r>00,000 for a student union and other purposes. Aftpr December 12, Mr. Dierdort’f will re turn to his New York office with Tamhlyn and Brown, experts in campaigns for money raising.

LET’S GO! SEVEN SEERS Name . Phone or Address GATHER AROUND Today’s gallant effort is dedicat ed to those brave lads and ladies •who braved the rains and mud at Oregon when it was deeper than to day. To them good old days when a feller could wear peg-top pants, pug-nosed shoes, and funny little hats, when the gals wore garters and gaiters, lifted their skirts to cross a mud puddle, and never smok ed anything stronger than a corn, cob pipe—we lift our hats and say whoopee-e-e! Welcome back. The Seers fairly beamed with sat isfaction and pride when they gloat ed over the results of this last Lim erick contest. Such bright, witty, intelligent answers, such a fine showing of poetic genius by the students! Truly it was quite re markable. As an example of the great ability to rhyme something with Margo we quote the following bright ones: Lardo, lumbago, darned if I know, aint it now tho, your pa’s dough, hard show, Pajamarino, and Mardi Gras. Clever? However, there were mjany that showed real wit, and it was harder than ever for us to determine the winners. We hope they keep up the good work and enjoy the show: First Prize There was a fair co-ed named Margo, Who wanted to go see ‘White Cargo,’ When he gave her an ’ask,’ She took him to task, ’Twas a Freshman, that’s why the embargo. Vincent Hill Second Prize For he work at the local Wells-Fargo Sam Suwol Third Prize Because he couldn’t make his Star go Ed Manning We will be glad to dole out tho (free) prizes to the above lucky ones if they will call for thelm at the editor’s office the first of tho week. PRIZE WINNER FOR TODAY j RADIO DEBATE CONSIDERED i I Arrangements for a radio debate! with a California university have! not been completed with the Port land Oregonian, according to Alfred Powers, assistant director of the ex tention division. In case KGW, and tho Oakland Tribune broadcasting station, KLX, are available, he bo lieves the debates will probably be hold again next spring. BUNGALOW TO BE OPEN The Y. W. C. A. Bungalow, a cheery fire and a piano will be at the disposal of students and their alumni friends any time Saturday or Sunday. This graceful yacht with its white sails full, gaUanty brav ing the deep as it rides the waves on the Amazon we donate to Fred Hendrix and Ed Theri eau, heads of the rally and pa rade. We believe that in the last Week these two young men have shirked their duty, lain down oh the job and in every respect shown themselves to be lazy, shiftless and idle. We give them this boat therefore, not be cause we feel they deserve it but because we suggest that they get on it. * When a rival provoked Julius Caesar He’d give him a bust on the beezer, But he fell hard for Cleo; He bought her a Reo, And went to the limit to please her.

LUMBER COLLECTED FOR FIRE BY MISTAKE The class of ’29 has already ex perienced difficulties in fegard to some of the things that they have used to make the bonfire grow. It has been reported that a pile of old automobile tires are missing, and Hargreave and Lindsay Co., con tractors, say that about 1,000 feet of lumber was taken from them by mistake. “The boys go around and solicit for their materials,” said Dean Walker, dean of men, in discussing the subject, “and often when they are collected the boys on the truck are not the same ones who soli cited the district. In this way mis takes are sometimes made in gath ering the things up. It is not in tentional on their part because they are warned every year in regard to this matter.” The freshmen always pay for these mistakes, and the money this year will probably come out of the class fund, according to the dean.
