Keep Traditions Of University Tells Dr. Hall New President Addresses First Year Students At Assembly Villard hall was taxed to capacity yesterday morning when the class of 1930 held their assembly. The frosh started their journey to the hall long before the appointed time and by 9 o’clock every seat in the hall was taken and standing room was at a premium. H. Walker, dean of men, brought the gathering to order and Alonzo J: sman, president of the class, an nounced that all men would be re quested to assist in building the flaming “O.” This is to be con structed Thursday afternoon and Friday morning of next week. The jjirls of the class were told to re port at the Y. W. C. A. yesterday afternoon to work on pennants. Dean Walker introduced Dr. Arnold Ben nett Hall, president-elect of the Uni versity, who delivered the third of his series of lectures to the incom ing freshmen. Doctor Hall’s message was “Spir itual Preparedness for Life,” taking Abraham Lincoln as an lexample for the modern young man. He pointed out that Lincoln’s two great est assets were his great power of spiritual reality and great passion for welfare of mankind. The new president gave a very fitting ex ample of how Lincoln acted in time of great importance when he told of the episode of the committee wait ing on Lincoln with the nomination of the Bepublican party for presi 'dent of the United States. Lincoln excused himself and went to another room of the house where he studied the map of the country and then asked God to give him power to lead the country through the stormy period. Doctor Hall asked the freshman class to co-operate with him in'up holding three, important traditions of the University, namely: obey the eighteenth amendment, continue the simplicity of taste and dress, main tain the tradition of chivalry. In closing he likened each student to a private in the army during war time and told how the army would not function without the privates, so would not the class function prop erly without the aid and support of each individual. As a climax to the meeting tho class responded to a man when a rising vote of appreciation of Dr. Hall’s policies was called for. Dr. Hall responded with words of thanks and the assembly was dismissed. Assembly (Continued from page one) Boatman,” played by Boris Helen Patterson.

The exercises may be held in the Woman’s building.

Inaugural services and Homecoming. Exciting—thrilling —devasting, at least to the pock et book for one simply must have a few things to celebrate. Dens more-Leonard, as usual, lead the list of eniticers with their new line of tailored sport frocks. At . tractive and smart-fashioned of soft light weight jerseys—they are prime favorites with Fashion this fall. With Letitia Abram’s hats just above on the balcony the j average victim readily succumbs I to, at least, looking them over ] and inevitably ends up by buy i ing one—for they are so utterly distinctive and of such ultra quality and value that to resist wearing one is simply impossible. Her felt and velours are extreme ly good this season and direct from the hands of' master de signers. With skirts shorter Ithan ever, hoiery is pretty much of a prob lem these days, however, for fall and school wear, light weight woolen hose is the accepted thing. Euth Cyrus lia3 just re ceived a new shipment from the regular Portland Berg stock and they are obtainable in all colors and plaids at her home shop, 241 E 12th. • • • It seems so good to have ear rings in vogue again, and, altho, they are sold everywhere, to find ! something gratifying to one’s taste is rather difficult, or, at j least, it was, until The Aladdin Gift Shop introduced among | their novelty jewelry the quaint i est and unost original specimens conceivable. They are of silver and enamel combinations and, are priced amazingly low. To fix the house cozy and at tractive for our old “alums” is now the issue before us, however, this year we have procured the services of Baup’s Floral Go. and are now content to rest sat j isfied in joyful speculations as ! to the glories of the completed i product. Baup’s seem to have the i knack of softening and enrich ing a room by the unobstrusive i arrangement of their flowers. • * * Ill spite of their firm denials I believe all ‘'alums” eat be tween meals so for their con venience we are having McKil lops fill special candy jars with delicious concoctions to be placed in certain inviting spots. * * * With all this good weather descending upon us horseback riding is the popular diversion. Betty Lou and the Twins and j myself had really a most gor i geous time yesterday. Got El j liot’s and Underwood’s to pack ! us a lunch and we devoured it I ’way up in the hills. The food | was truly so marvelous and ev 1 ery thing so pleasant thait we are already anticipating a simi lar excursion, soon. Sunny fall days and freedom of appearance is quite the para mount mode, as result one’s crowning glory is much in evi dence, and must be carefully coiffured. Hasting Sister’s ! (Minor Bldg.,) with their mar cels, water-waves and curls, are the agents that bring about a woman's realization of her goal of hopes namely: to be beauti ful. * • • You feel as you look and act as you feel. This is true, Anne, everytime I get a hair cut at the Co-ed Barber Shop I always feel so neat and trim that it tones up my whole system. Its an O. K. establishment that can bring about such a welcome phy sical reaction. As a fitting culmination and as a reward for penning this espistle I think I deserve a tea at the Anchorage. So here’s for thinking of you kindly during my enjoyment of the next hour. Yours for always, CABOL.
