A Bouquet And a Boost OMl’AKATIVK eatm, aftcv the storm of rushing, brings leis ure and mood for speculation on a most grotessue fungus that has spropted from the tree of higher learning. Before the last echoes of crashing fraternal reputations have faded out; before the shock of see ing an unexpected emblem shining from tire wrong taped is dissipated, Greeks, take inventory. The purpose of rush week is to enable the right rusheo to make contact with the right group—os tensibly. In reality, little is accom plished besides contributing to the melee attending registration and thoroughly befuddling the already confused freshmen. The argument that the helpful rushers are of great assistance to University officials in their job of caring for newcomers is refuted by the number of change of program cases immediately after rushing rules have been complied with. Get the man registered, pinned—there’s lots of time to de cide on courses. Much credit is duo Pan-Hollenic and the Interfraternity Council for their efforts to handle an impossible situation. The modification of men’s rides this year relieved an al most intolerable strain. YVails from other college columns remind us that times have changed for the better here. But there remains much tp be done before an orderly method of pledging is perfected. The tendency in progressive uni versities toward lengthening tho time of a student’s familiarity with the campus before he is eligible for * rushing, lb' learns the ratings and he is capable of an intelligent de cision. Likewise, the houses are spared the difficulties with discon tented pledges who “didn't know it would be like this when I joined.” Oregon \s progress in rushing re form has always been impeded by lack of accommodations for uon frateruitv members, but now tho sucess of the rusheo residence pro hibition must go a long way to per suade die-hards that ndeipmtc hous ing is available. Champions of fra tornaliam must take the initiative. Thu University will follow. With it lies the responsibility of selecting roofs for its charges; witness, the apartments for women taboo. There is no longer legitimate excuse for Oregon to tag in this important item of student welfare. The Emerald Reconsiders r I AHc EMERALD almowt slwukod itself spooi'liloss l>v an un guarded statement it made mi its own trout page yesterday morning. Hut despite tht word of the prophet that nothing under heaven can re* ^all the written word, it reinoni horod its privilege to correet and re cant. Hero Is Hie statement as it j appeared: Wliat, is probably a direct out growth of the traditions contro versy of last year is the inclusion in the report of the statement, “The Emerald is an official stu dent body organ and should right ly devote some space toward the festering of Oregon traditions.” Investigation proved that the die- j turn had been qualified by a “worth while” before the final “traditions” making the disposition of the Em erald toward whatever tradition questions arise a matter of its own opinion, not merely an echo of stu dent administration. Yes, the “worthwhile” makes a difference—the difference between a house-organ and a critical ob server. ILEN ONE hears the expres » ^ sion “the good old days”, he usually sees visions of scenes in the dim, dusty, and mouldy past, at least as far back as the prc-Volsteud era. To hark back to the days when the “hello” was heard every where on the Oregon campus is but to go b^'k a few short years. That everyone say “hello” to those they puss on the campus is one of the most venerable of Ore gon traditions. The lapse in its al most universal observance on the campus has conic about with the in creasing number of students entering tiie University. The inercase in num bers has meant, a lessening of close personal contacts and a decrease in the number of cheery “hellos” ex changed between students. The old tradition is far from be ing dead, yet lacks much of being the factor in campus life that was once its lot. The old students have their friends, their speaking ac quaintances those to whom they speak because they meet so often and feel to be friends. Freshmen speak to those they have learned to know. The tradition is kept alive, but not because it is a tradi I ion. Consider the new students on the campus, freshmen and transfers from other colleges and universities. Many of them are total strangers on this campus. They are living in pri vate homes and have not the oppor tunities to make friendships as have the students in living organizations. To the newcomer to Oregon, a series of “hello’s” greeting him as he moves about the campus is a far more convincing welcome than any formal speeches of welcome rail hope to be. Without getting emo tional about the matter, il is safe to say that a ''hello”, given with a smile, has helped many to become better Oregon students because of the feeling of good fellowship it en gendered. ‘'"’ay "Hello", fckiy it often and smite when you say it.

This is the president of a newly formed organization to look after student welfare. “It is felt,” said the president in an interview this morning as he was getting up, “that since Jack Seabrook left school early last year there has never been a real authority on pipe courcs.” With this in mind, the organiza tion will soon put on a contest to determine who is capable of holding such a position.
