Oregon Netmen
Preparing for .
Tilt With Reed
Matches to be Played Next
Friday and Saturday
In Portland
The varsity racqueteers have been
pounding the pill consistently two
hours a day getting into condition
ior tne matcnes
in Portland next
Friday and Satur
day, April 29 and
39. The Friday
game against the
Eeed College net
men will be the
opening show of
the season. Last
i year the Webfo'ot
court stars de
feated the Port
land collegians 7
to 0. The Mult
Roy Okerberg
nomah tennis players put up a hard
er fight than the Reed College men
but lost 5 to 2.
The Oregon men this season have
been handicapped by the cold and
rainy weather, but most of them are
coming around fine at the present..
Dick Edge, transfer from San Diego
State college, has been showing up
well as a base line player, Coach
Ed Abercrombie said. Edge, how
ever, has shown a weakness on net
plays, but the coach believes that
this fault may be remedied before
the end of the season.
Mel Cohn, ex-Los Angeles Tennis
club luminary, who played number
3 man on the varsity last. season,
has been improving his service and
net playing and should win his
share of the games during the com
ing season. Last season Cohn used
a flat serve, but now he is putting
more top on the ball and is getting
greater speed and accuracy than
before.
Roy Okerberg, varsity Star of last
season, is playing his final year un
der the lemon-yellow colors, and ac
cording to advance dope, is slated
for a successful season. He is work
ing on a chop serve which is giving
him increased accuracy and forming
an ideal combination coupled with
his terrific speed.
Tom Cross, letterman from last
year, and Henry Neer, ranking
freshman from last season’s crack
frosh team, have been s*. owing a
good deal of improvement over last
year’s play. Both can hold fteir
own in northwest college tennis cir
cles, the coach declared.
Other men showing themselves to
be in condition for competition are
George Mead, two year letterman,
Bill Powell, and Hal Hutchinson,
both wears of'one stripe, and Clar
ence Hartman, who played second
position on last year’s frosh.

constitution or by-laws long before
the candidates running this year
will be sworn into office.
Analogy Drawn
Those taking this attitude draw
the analogy of a candidate for Con
gress with his platform supporting
a low tariff, at the same time that
a question is before the people to
entirely do away with the tariff.
The question would be decided be
fore the candidate enters upon the
duties of his office.
How much effect platforms will
have in the coming election is not
known, but in nominating speeches
Thursday no decisive platforms were
stated.

Communications
(Continued from page two)
constitute one classification of read
ers. The people who live outside of
the proverbial college walls, some
of whom have had past contacts
with the University, but a large
number who must depend on the
Emerald for the facts, constitute
the other classification of readers,
As to the first classification full
freedom of the editor to control
the editorial policy is granted. They
have chosen him, and should he not
conform to their desires they can
resort to the recall.
In regard to the second classi
fication we have a different problem
to deal with. These readers, par
ents of children now in college, par
ents of children .contemplating en
tering college soon, and a sprinkling
of old grads, who are includod here
merely to complete the list, accept
the conditions as set forth in the
editorial columns as correct. The
idea of college life being rather
hazy to the great majority of people
who have had no actual contact
with it, it becomes extremely easy
to give them incorrect opinions of
conditions as they actually exist.
We are all interested in promot
ing the best interests of the Uni
versity, and this move to" include
the Emerald in the list of publica
tions published under the sobering
influence of a representative body,
appointed not by the student body
president, as appeared in the Em
erald this morning, but by the in
coming student body president, the
outgoing student ,body president,
the president of the University, and
the president of the alumni is taken
with the best interests of the Uni
versity at heart.
As a state institution these same
readers who are necessarily tax pay
ers and financial supporters of the
University have a right to know
the true status of affairs. A Pub
lications Committee would be in
terested in only this. Is there any
thing to be beared from a commit
tee chosen as above in the nature
of a vieious influence? As an insti
tution we are all interested in.
There is no Gag Rule connected
with such a policy. It is merely a
means of forcing an editor who
says what he thinks to stop and

FRANCIS QUINN
Where Are Liberty and Justice
To the Editor of the Emerald:
The assumption of the Executive
Council that the Emerald does not
voice the opinion aiyi preferen.ee of
a large number of students is er
roneous. But granting that there
are as many in the University who
do not agree with the editor, it is
aggravating to know that to avoid
criticism they wish to appoint a
committee to “advise” the Editor.
The stand taken by the Council
has, throughout, been inconsistent.
! In the first placo the Emerald has
I enjoyed more favorable comment
' from other schools, and throughout
j the state, than ever before. In the
| second place, it has stood at all
j times for policies which were of
j benefit to the University. It has
! been the intelligent organ for the
j expression of some of the best and
! most constructive thought expressed
i in the past year. In the fourth
| place, the editor has been perfectly
aware of his obligations to the stu
dent body. He has given news in
as true and unbiased a manner as
possible. And the editorials, for
which he assumes full responsibili
ty, have been thought-provoking,
intelligent, shrewd in their analysis
of the meaning of existing condi
tions. In the fifth place the columns
of the Emerald have always been
open to the free expression of stu
dent ideas. And in the sixth place,

I if the much longed for Publications
Committee is not going to function,
as the Executive Council assure us
that it is not, why in the name of
common sense have it?
If the students and administra
tion feel inclined to combat heart
ily the policies of the Editor, they
can wield the big stick of the re
call.
This whole movement for the
suppression of free speech is pathet
ically out of keeping with the much
talked of traditions of justice and
liberty.

Hello Anne dear,
Things have been sparking
quite ‘lively of late with friend
me occupying central place per
usual—oh yes. House parties are
starting up again and Graice did
honor me with one last weekend
at her lodge up the McKenzie.
A really perfect place. Of course,
sport togs were in vogue, so
sweaters, ties and light blaziers
from Densmore-Leonard were
proudly disported going nature
one better in the brilliance and
loveliness of their colors.

One is led to believe that men
are of ho stronger sex, but we
feminines have our suspicions,
for it takes a woman to stand
cold water. Maybe it was the
confidence given by a Co-ed
Barber Shop haircut, anyway, we
all indulged irf the most splendi
ferous plunges while our shiver
ing escorts held the sack ashore.
Short hair neatly cared for sure
ly makes one feel the personifi
cation of buoyant youth.

And who says the modern girl
can’t jcook—Why we all just
pitched in and turned out the
most luscious eatables imagin
able. Food material was from
Underwood and Elliot’s, so guess
it is only fair to split honors,
for anyone can achieve success
with the high class food stuffs
that they furnish. '

Did go to an awfully smart
fashion revuo last week and was
again reminded of the fact that
the fair sex of Eugeno are, in
deed, lucky to have a shop like
Miss Abram's in which to give
vent to their hat caprices. All
tho models wore her new cro
cheted straws and bangkoks and
if you didn't have on an
Abram’s creation you were quite
out of the picture.

Itecoived a note from Alma,
who is coming down next week.
As a special request, she de
manded that I round up all her
old tillicums for a re-union at
her favorito haunt, the Anchor
age. To evoryone’s gratification,
I am so doing, and big prospects
are in view.

a thrilling reviver of pleasant
memories. Flowers do help make .
life worth living and every mode
of fashion especially stresses
them this season. Dances, din
ners. and teas are now gala vivid
affairs with nature’s glories run

Fires are so thrilling. Did have
a picnic supper on the river last
night and it was all very lovely.
AV e all stretched out and reveled
in the glow of the blazing wood
and blissfully munched some of
McKillop’s choice morsels. The
candy was a master’s touch to
the peace and happiness of the
