Untried Authority
Given Expert Guidance
/YRDER OP THE O men enfbar
rassed the prophets yesterday ;
by genially according in a resolution j
to make tennis a peer along with j
basketball, track, baseball, and even
mighty football. The Iqttermon’s
generous support gives still more im
petus to the movement afoot to do
away, as much as can be, with the
purely arbitrary discriminations be
tween sports.
At the polls last week, students)
sanctioned the new dispensation by
striking the rigid requirements
for awards out of the by-laws and
placing the student policy govern
ing such matters at the discretion of
student and executive council mem
bers. Today's is the first opportun
ity for the new authorities to decide
or the admission of a minor sport to
first rank.
The reception of tennis among the
elite of sport society hero has rami
fications rooted far from the whim
sical distinction which four extra
inches of blue worsted fenced in by
yellow brings to the wearer. It goes
to show that crowned heads in sports
ure no diviner than the ones in poli
tics; all rise and fall with the popu
lar enthusiasm they are able to elicit,
no matter how well fixed in tradi
tion they may be.
Tho Order of the O, in yesterday’s
l ow to tennis, foreshadowed the day
when the equal hegemony of sports
will come to pass. It will not bo
next year, nor yet the year after, but
tin) most*advanced physical educa
tionalists and conches—such men as
William J. Reinhart and Delbert
Ohgrteuffor of our own department
—look forward to an ultimate nor
mal relationship between an indivi
dual and his peculiar fitness for an
activity.
They are right. What other crite
rion than the skill of a player and
the effort ho puts out call be counted
in appraising his service to alma
mater? For example, can we hold
that, because football is spectacular,
everyone who lacks the particular
coordination which qualifies a star
gridster is ruled out of his share ot
glcry and physical benefit in sports;
The Emerald would be overjoyed tc
sec any kind of intercollegiate com
cptition—golf to horseshoes -recog
nixed with a yellow () just 8x7x1 Vi
But in the meantime, a mensurt
awaits the action of the new authori
ties today. The thinking sponsors ol
Oregon athletics, the members of tin
Order of the O, and even the studen
body, in it tacit way, have ratified
the inauguration of tennis as a raa
por sport. This makes it easy for
the student and executive councils to
pass.
The Marble
Opportunity
HE committee on the senior
-* clnss memorial has recommend
ed that the class use its surplus
funds to provide a marble base for
a statue of the late 1‘rince L. Oamp
During the more than a quarter
century that Prince L. Campbell was
at the head of the University of
Oregon, he performed a great and
lasting service to the state of Ore
gon and its citizens. It is duo to
his industry, his unflagging zeal and
devotion to the cause of higher edu
cation in Oregon that this university
has grown from the status of a fledg
ling college to that of a well-estab
lished and widely recognized institu
tion of merit.
It has truly been said oiVPresident
Campbell that lie gave his life for
the University of Oregon. Faculty
I members and the few students still
1 on the campus who heard him speak
I in the Woman’s building in May,
192-1, will probably never forget, the
I occasion. Only recently out of the
hospital and yet feeble from a lin
’ goring illness, ho was assisted to a
| large wicker chair near the edge of
the stage. Remaining seated and
well wrapped in robes, he delivered
the address which opened the cam
pus drive for the (treater Oregon of
his dreams. The effects of the ill
ness were apparent in his voice but
not in the wording of his plea,
j. Brief and clear, Prince L. Campbell
1 made every word count in his last
public appearance.
Mr. and Mrs. A. Phimistcr Proc
ter, long close friends of Mr. Camp
bell, are giving the statue, which Hi
to stand in the court of the pro
posed fine arts museum. Mr. Proc
tor, noted sculptor of the Pioneer,
of the Circuit Rider, at Salem, ot
the equestrian statue of Thjeodorc
Roosevelt, in Portland, and main
other fine works of art, will himscll
execute the work.
The class of 192S, the last chtSi
to attend the University during
President Campbell's lifetime, has :
real opportunity to leave behim
something of permanence and fitting
sentiment, sharing in a spleudii
tribute to one whose deeds have left
i ai- irrndicable imprint on the Uni
. veisity of Oregon. —W. C.

To men in telephone work, ser

arises, to be ready. This point of view
