Our Self-Conscious Bow
To The Editors
PHENOMENON observed on
the campus about tho time of
the Oregon Newspaper Conference
each year is that tho air turns
densely blue around the journalism
shack. Today’s tho day, and the
Emerald hastens to assure the cam
pus that the atmospheric transforma
tion arises, not from the overflow
of editorial anathema, but from the
tips of comradely cigars. For the
•guiding spirits of the Oregon press
are now assembling hero to chock
ideas and compare notes concerning
tho things of newspaperdom.
In greeting its lustier fellows of
tho state, the Emerald feels somo
diffidence. We remember the pro
fane amusement of a veteran of the
old school who, in somo way or an
other, had been rung in on a jour
nalism conference of tho modern
stamp. He was tolerantly contemp
tuous when, on entering the assem
bly room, ho found tho chair on the
dais scarcely filled with a green
young stripling. But when tho
beardloss neophyte opened tho meet
ing with a thinly piping falsetto,
“Follow journalists . . .,” the
hardy old news-office pirate re
nounced his calling and foreswore
all things of tho fourth estate for
ever.
Ho if greetings aro dispensed
with, there remains little for us to
contribute. We need hardly remind
members of the conference that the
shuck is theirs to use as they will
during their stay. They already
feel as much at homo here as the
attendants at eight o’clock classes.
Ami if they don’t they have only
to call out loudly for Elbert Bede
or Hal Hess to pilot them around.
Which reminds us, in parting,
that it is the Emerald’s solemn obli
gation to the upstate editors to
warn them against tho forecasted
machinations of alleged political
aspirants. Concrete evidence of
any such abuses—protracted hand
shakes and the like—of this partisan
truce will bo substantially rewarded
by the Emerald and tho culprits will
be exposed at tonight’s banquet.
Casting An Eye
Over Social Liberties
\ >S a result of action taken by
the Women’s Council of Stan
ford University, tho Bale Alto in
stitution now has one of tho most
liberal set of rules governing social
hours there is to be found in any
of the universities of the country.
The new rules include a 1:30 limit
for Friday and Saturday nights;
that men be permitted to remain in
women’s houses until 1:30 on week
end nights; and that t\yo or more
Stanford women may enter a fra
ternity house without being accom
panied by a chaperone, as previously
required.
The operation of the new code
will be watched with interest by
other colleges and universities along
tho const. It is to bo expected that
students on other campuses will be
gin to, .make demands for greater
liberties. “If Stanford can have
late hours, why can’t we?” they
will argue.
There have been mutterings of
discontent over the moderately lib
oral rules that apply hero at Ore
gon. The rules that govern the
presence of patrons and patronesses
at house dances, especially tho in
formal which is arranged at the
last ininufc, aro often violated.
Many such dances arc given during
the year by small groups remaining
on tho campus for over a holiday
or a week-end when tho majority of
the students have gone to Portland
for a football gamo. Congenial
chaperones aro frequently difficult
to secure at such times and the stu
dents take chances on “getting by”
with fewer than the required number
or none at all.
That tho “lockout” hour should
be extended somewhat is the stand
taken by others. Such a change
would be welcome, at least so as to
give a bit more leeway on the nights
of all-campus functions, so that it
would be possible for all who wished
to do so might enjoy the dance to
an end.
A demand for changes should not
bo made, however, without consid
eration of other factors •besides
those of increased pleasure. Is what
wo want most always tho best for us?
Would (he benefits of increased lib
erties offset the unfavorable storm
of criticism which is certain to
arise when changes of such a na
ture are made? What would be the
effect of later hours on general stu
dent health?
Today’s mutterings will some day
take the form of a formal demand
for action. In the meuntimo it will
be well to try and see the official j
viewpoint as well as that of the stu
dents. ■—W. C. |
