For the State
Championship
ELEVEN, determined sons of Ore
gon will fare forth on the
-■squishy-squoshy morass that consti
tutes Bell field of Corvallis today,
and try to do what eighteen pre
vious Oregon teams have done—
emerge victorious. The Oregon team
will fight to the last ditch this after
noon as Oregon teams always do,
and leave no pebble unturned in its
uphill struggle toward the long end
of the score.
Whichever way the tide of battle
goes, a great and instructive game
is certain. The heavy rains have
raised havoc with the field, but the
line work will be as savage as ever,
and the spirit will be as high. Per
haps little Whippet Ord will not
gallop around the big boys from
O. A. C., but Lynn Jones will lower
his head and charge through them.
Today’s fray will mark the end
of three year’s competition for
seven of the Oregon band, and all
are determined that their last game
shall be their greatest. Bert Kerns,
the scrappy fireman; Captain A1
Sinclair, the cool and collected
tackle; George Mimnaugh, the game
and gritty quarterback; Otto Vitus,
the halfback with the happy dis
position; Sherman Smith, the serious
and vicious-tackling wingman; Carl
Johnson, the light and bfainy cen
ter; and Lynn Jones, as great a lino
plunger as Oregon has ever known—
there are the names which will be
history tonight. It’s worth going to
Corvallis to see these men play'.
Hundreds of students will journey
to Aggieville today, and hundreds
will watch the gridgraph. The game
will mark the last bow of the 1926
Oregon football team, a good team
composed of scrappers, and confident
that it is bearing the star of des
tiny, that it is the harbinger of
coast champions to come.—H. W. M.
Stanford in Defense
Of Stanford
Judging students from the ap
pearance of campus buildings seems
to have been the method applied
by a magazine writer in discussing
Stanford university. Having al
ways admired the standards of the
southern institution, we hereby per
mit its daily editor to fill our edi
torial column and incidentally de
nounce the new ‘‘impressionism”:
“Spiritually the University
seems as stairless as it is ma
terially. It is close to the ground
of fact.” Such is the brief state
ment of George Marvin’s opin
ion of Stanford student aspira
tions as he expresses it in an ar
ticle called “Stairless Stan
ford” appearing in the Novem- :
her issue of The Outlook.
He describes Stanford’s archi
Commun
ications
wnuiMfo. ti
Drives and More Drives
For the past eight years, even for
the past ten years, every organiza
tion in the country, from the street
cleaners union to the United States
government, has held some sort of
a drive for money. They are all:
drive crazy. Their object is to get
money from the people with the
least possible service. I do not mean
to say that this is the object of all
drives. Some organizations have
given a great service to the country
profit to the directors of the body.
tecture as unaspiring, saying
“its growth is lateral in one di
mension, reaching out, hovering,
brooding. There is nothing high
about it anywhere.” Likening
Stanford’s physical plant with
her spiritual outlook, Marvin de
velops his theory that Stanford
is lacking in faith and aspirations,
saying, “The buildings squat on
the Palo Alto farm and the per
sonnel sits on the nest, thus
made, hatching education.
Marvin forgets himself when
he says “Stanford professes to
value quality before quantity. It
pretends to regret its steadily
crowing attendance and resents
the impersonality of teaching
which comes with increased en
rollment.” The university neither
“professes” nor “pretends” m
its belief in these matters; it
puts quality before quantity and
shows its regret of increasing en
rollment by its strict entrance
limitations. _ ,
Marvin’s article is indeed a
good example, of impressionistic
writing. Nowhere in his article
does he prove that Stanford stu
dents lack aspirations. Ife does
not show that he has talked to
students to obtain their views,
in fact he shows quite clearly
that he has entirely overlooked
student thought which is the on
ly true criteria of aspirations.
The Drive Season
Is With Us
IN THE communication column to
day, I>. P. O- registers a com
plaint against the numerous cam
pus drives. His opinion is probably
reflected by every other student
who has had the misfortune, since
the opening of the fall term, of be
ing button holed at each street cor
ner -and asked to contribute to this
drive or that.
College students are not known
as possessors of vast fortunes, and,
in most cases fees and living ex-1
ponses cut deeply into the bank- j
roll. Yet every conceivable organi-!
zat ion or endeavor seeks out the |
students as prospective contribu-1
tors. And the students give, andi
give and give. They have given so j
willingly that their generosity has
attracted new collectors. At the
present rate, before many years
have elapsed, each week will wit
ness a new drive.
This is an evil for the student 11
council, as representative of the
students at large, to remedy with
despatch. Campaigns that have no
legitimate right to appeal for stud
ent support should bo denied per
mission to levy drives. The worthy
organizations (and they should all
prove their right to ask for funds)
should get their campaigning over
early and quickly—perhaps at one
time. .Tust what means should be
used had best bo decided by the
council.
But something should be done,
before the students themselves are
forced to conduct, drives for funds
in order that they may continue in
the University.—C. P.
However, there are many which are
way out of this class.
During the war and for a few;
years after the war people were
more than willing to contribute to
certain of these drives, but now?
Well that's a question. No>v that
the war has been over for eight1
years, the Near East taken care of
and the Armenians safely tucked
away in their country, why do we
need to contribute to a fund that j
gives some plump “Grand Secre
tary” a fat salary while he sits
back and directs a drive for the
support of orphans of the Napoleon
ic wars!
Most of the students in this Uni
versity are here to gain a little
knowledge. They enter school in the
fall, pay their fees in October and
think that they have paid all neces
sary bills, with the exception of liv
ing expenses, for the term. But this
is where they are sadly fooled.
The first week the Emerald puts
on a drive for subscriptions. “Let’s
see everyone do their duty and send
the Emerald home,” they say, and
really a person feels rather like an
“under dog” if he doesn’t subscribe.
But the Emerald is only a start.
In the next few weeks there comes
a drive for the Y. M. and Y. W. C.
A., followed by the Webfoot, the
Oregana, the Bed Cross, the Walter
Camp memorial and the Gimme a
dollar game is "on.
Now I don’t want to appear rad
ical. I am not intending to condemn
all drives but I do believe that this
campus is having too many drives.
Of course some of them are legitim
ate but they are all tiresome. They
all issue the same “let’s go over
100 per cent” appeal and they all
offer a few sentimental reasons for
the drive.
Although I have made no exhaus
tive study of drive psychology, and
have really given the subject very
little thought, T feel that there
should be some way to remedy this
evil. Therefore, I wish to offer this
suggestion, it is not original but it
seems to be feasible:
Hold no separate drives for the
charity and social benefit organiza
tions but have the executive council
name a certain amount to be paid
to each organization, the organiza
tion paid by the associated students
and then levy a small tax against
each student to pay the bill.
The Oregana and the Emerald
might as well continue their drives
but the Webfoot should not have
another drive. It should be paid for
in the same way that the Emerald
is now paid for; that is taking the
price of subscription out of the stu
dent body fees.
Then allow no drives to be held
on the campus that are not approved
of by the executive committee of
the associated students.
* • •
There is a suggestion, take it or
leave it, but I believe that “some
thin’ orter be done about this.”
Others may have suggestions far
better than this, I hope they have,
and I am sure that the student body
officers would gladly give ear to any
suggestion which would tend to im
prove this condition,

fact that they have both an excel
lent offense and defense.
Breaks may decide the contest—
a blocked kick, failure to convert
the point after a touchdown, or an
intercepted pass. Any of these, or
athers that fate allows, may be the
ultimate factor in victory or de
feat.
Homecoming crowds may be thrill
ed and brought to their feet if they
see Vie Wetzel toss a slippery ball
20 or 30 yards and also see the re
;eiver pick it from the sky. All
week, Coaches Vidal and Mautz
lave incessantly drilled the backs
ind ends in forward passing a water
dick ball so the weather conditions
:oday will have little destructive ef
fect on Oregon’s passing attack.
Lynn Jones, who will hit the Ag
?ie line for the last time today, is
n the pink of condition and able to
luck with the same tremendous
Irive that brought him fame two
rears ago. As a defensive back he
s equally as valuable.
Plenty of Subs
O. A. C^has the advantage in the
lumber or capable substitutes on
ho bench, but Oregon will have a
arger group of alternates than ever
lefore this year which will include
'our lettermen besides several oth
ers of high caliber.
Because of the wet field eonserva
ive football will probably prevail,
ine-bucking interspersed with much
muting. Wetzel has a decided ad
vantage over Liebe, the Aggie punt
>r. With the exception of Ira !
iVooifie, quarter, who is still on the ■
■usually list, all other players are
free from injuries. Combined with
his the Oregon men have had the
idvantage of viewing O. A. C. in ,
lotion when they played U. S. C. j
Vrmistico day, and each player made j
he most of the opportunity by an
ilyzing the man he will play op
posite today.
When the whistle blows for the
<iekoff, there will be no holding
pack by either team. Neither has
future conference games to point
for, and each will give all they have
n the repertoire of plays, for this
s the big game of the year, and the
state championship hangs in the j
aalance.

Hilton Rose Continues
Studies and Teaches
At French University
Hilton Rose, former University
student and major in pre-medics, is
now attending the University of
Rennes, at Rennes, France. He is
teaching two classes in English in
a French lycee, a position which is
known as “poste d’assistant,” be
sides continuing his stu&ies in med
icine. The University of Rennes is
an old school, Rose declared, in a
recent letter to Dr. Bowen. He is
much pleased with his work.
The scholarship which was award
ed by the French government under
the auspices of the International
Institute of Education is an unusual
honor since only a few awards are
made throughout the United States
each year.* Candidates must meet
requirements in French and be rec
ommended by the French depart
ment of the school before they can
be considered.
Rose is the son of Dr. M. W.
Rose of Portland. He is a member
of Delta Tau Delta fraternity, and
was, the first part of last year, as
sociate editor of the Oregana. He
has spent some years in China,
Japan and the Philippines.
The American Medical associa
tion, which maintains a record of
all medical students, * is recording
Rose’s achievements, scholarships
and activities.
After he has finished his study
abroad he will return to the Port
land Medical school where he will
complete his course.

Summer School
Will Get $5000
From Chamber
Faculty Members to Be
Canvassed for Help
On C. of C. Fund
Members of the University fac
ulty are being canvassed, for sub
scriptions to the $19,050 yearly de
velopment fund of the Eugene Cham
ber of Commerce, by a committee of
faculty members under the direction
of Carleton Spencer, registrar.
One of the main projects is as
sistance for the University’s sum
mer school program as outlined by
President Hall, for which the Cham
ber has set aside $5,000 a year for
three years. Some of the other pro
jects are briefly as follows: Indus
trial Surveys and Research, Boys’
and Girls’ club work, Willamette
and Market road support, State and
County fairs, Eugene arid Lane coun
ty advertising, and Oregon develop
ment work.
“This locality does not have a
community chest which every good
citizen is glad to support. Conse
quently, separate appeals necessar
ily have to be made. This, however,
should not lessen our willingness to
contribute to the welfare -of the
community. The amount to be used
by the Chamber for University pur- •
poses will exceed many times that
contributed by us,” says a com
munication the committee has sent
to faculty members.
An average pledge of one dollar a
month over a period of three years
is recommended. Those who fail to
respond by mail will be visited by
the committee Monday, according to
Mr. Spencer, chairman of the com
mittee.
The following men are on the
campus drive committee: Dean W.
G. Hale, Dean E. C. Robbins, Dean
John J. Landsbury, Professor O. F.
Stafford, Dr. W. D. Smith, Dr. Dan
Clark, and Carleton Spencer.

Out-of-town Concert
The Underwood string quartet is
to give its first out-of-town concert
December 3, at Klamath Falls, ac
cording to Dean John J. Landsbury,
of the school of music, who will
play a group of piano solos. Other
appearances about the state will fol
low, including one at Monmouth and
