The Name but
Not the Benefits
TJVRATEltNITIES and sororities
-I- owning their own homes or
planning to do so have a real inter
est in the suit filed Tuesday by
Kappa Gamma Rho fraternity, of
Willamette University, seeking an
in,function to prevent the Marion
county authorities from levying
taxes on the fraternity’s property.
Contributions of $25 oath froni Uni
versity of Oregon living organiza
tions have helped to swell the fund
with which the Willamette frater
nity is fighting the test ease. Cor
vallis groups have promised support.
The claim for exemption is made
on the grounds of the fraternity
being a non-profit corporation under
the laws of Oregon. As such,,it is
contended that fraternities belong
in the same classification ns church
es, lodges, colleges and the like.
The college fraternity, some crit
ics to the contrary, iH a valuable
social organization, especially at in
stitutions which are unable lo pro
viso adequate housing facilities for
the large numbers of students seek
ing the benefits of higher educa
tion. The fraternity gives the ad
vantages of closer fellowship and
cultural backgrounds to many stu
dents who would otherwise be forced
to resort lo staying in private homes
where the money to be had by rent
ing the spare room is the chief ob
ject in (lie mind of the householder.
It is unfair that students who thus
band themselves together for mu
tual welfare should be penalized
with payments of taxes while their
fellows in the state-owned dormi
tories escape the additional burden.
To list a college fraternity as
other than a non-profit corporation
is a travesty of the truth. A mali
nger who was able to collect more
money than was needed to pay the
bills owed bv his organization would
lit' hailed as a financial genius were
lie permitted to make his escape to
the outer world. Were the suit to
bo settled because of knowledge
based on experience with fraternal
affairs rather than by consultation
of the (lusty tomes of the law, there
would be no doubt as to what the
decision would be.
The fraternities are made to file
articles of incorporation as non
profit corporations at the time of
their organization. It is but just
that they bo accorded all the privi
leges of the classification.
wish to publicly thank the
j 7 ” editor for allowing us the plea
sure of giving him the day off. Jt
is a joy and a delight to be per
mitted to sit at a typewriter and
appear intelligent on a day like this.
The question which is most trouble
some is not how to appear intelli
gent, however, but how to keep the
S leader in the dark as to the true
mental state of the writer.
But this is an editorial. An edi
torial must support something, or
oppose something. Very well, we are
supporters. Of what? Who cares?
However, and, if, but, on the other
hand .... patience, Gentle Reader,
what is that cloud of dust yonder?
Pit-a-pat, pit-a-pat. Are those hoof
bents? Yes. Then there must be a
horse, somewhere. Put the dust
and the hoof-beats together and
you have not only a horse but an
approaching quadruped. But what
does that signify. Ah, we were
waiting for that. On the back of
yon approaching hoof beater is an
idea for this editorial. But it is
nearly time to go lo press. Will
Idea got here in time? lie’ll have
to hurry ....
Whoa! Say, what’s the idea.
You’re late. We thought you
weren’t coming. Say, Editor, if you
think an idea of my caliber is going
lo get into THAT editorial, you’re
all wet. But what shall wo do?
What will our public say? They
will probably say, “What’s the big
idea'?” But there isn’t any. That’s
the idea. Bet’s go swimming. That
BS an idea.

Rutherford, N. J.

i Gentlemen:
I I sure get some riled when I see
where some fellow is crowing over the
fact that being older, and having run
into Edgeworth sooner than his less
fortunate compatriots, lie challenges
the world as the champion long-time
member of the Edgeworth Club.
He doesn’t deserve any medals. He
got his reward in the enjoyment of his
smoking for the added number of years.
He was just lucky in starting sooner,
that's all.
However, if you care to delve into
ancient history, look up when they
first started to pull down the old Grand
Central Station in New York,* then
add at least six months to that, and
you will arrive at the approximate!
time when 1 first joined the club.
I have smoked at least one pipeful
of every other tobacco I have seen
advertised, sometimes through neees
j sity. hut most of the time to prove to
myself that 1 have been right in stick
ing to the old blue tin.
Yours truly,

Student Exhibit
Visitors Observe Work of
All Departments
The exhibit of student and fac
ulty work of the school of archi
tecture and allied arts, which was
placed on display for Visitors’ day,
May 24, received a great deal of
favorable comment from the visiting
artists and architects, who criti
cized the work of the school.
Emil Jacques, instructor in art at
Columbia University, Portland;
Harlan Thomas, dean of the archi
tecture department of the Univer
sity of Washington; Armond Bean,
supervising architect in charge of
the construction of the new men’s
dormitory on the campus; Harold
Doty, Portland architect; and Mrs.
H. C. Wortman and Mr. Wade Pipes
cf Portland, are among those who
visited the campus yesterday.
One of the most colorful prob
lems in the exhibit of the interior
design department was the plan of
a Russian Peasant tea rootn, by
Hope Crouch, senior in the arts
school. The detail was richly and
vividly carried out against a back
ground in which blue-gray predom
inated.
In the same exhibit, a drawing
of the staircase leading to Alumni
hall in the Woman’s building, was
gracefully and clearly executed. Two
studies of nooks in Alumni hall
were very realistic. Among the
more modern problems were two
plans of a physician’s reception
room, one by Mildred Vaughan, and
the other by Grace Coey, both' sen
ior art majors. Some interesting
wall paper designs were also shown.
It could be seen that the design
problems traced a general history
from ancient to modern. Many of the
oiiginal problems had been inspired
by old designs, and showed the pre
vailing influence of the old over
the new.
From the painting department
were drawings and paintings of the
life classes. “'The death of the poet,”
a study in black and white, received
favorable criticism frtmi Emil
Jacques.
The plan of a college campus, a
co-educational college of the lib
eral arts and sciences for eight hun
dred students, appeared among the
architectural drawings. It was done
by Raymond Thompson, graduate
student in architecture. Oke of the
most elaborate in this section was
the plan of the “DeLuxe Hostelry
| Extravaganza,” designed especially
for political business and social
gatherings, by William A. Johnson, |
sophomore architecture major. “A
museum for a Tapestry and Textile
Plant” by Lau Fook, Tai showed a
decided oriental influence.
A full figure study in life by
Mrs. E. T. Ilodgo, graduate student
in sculpture, was included in the
exhibition from that department.
Studies in costume design, woven j
scarfs and table runners, books ;
bound in the book-binding class,
vases and bowls made in the pottery
classes, decorated boxes, purses, and
lamp shades were some of the arti
cles exhibited by the industrial .arts
department.

This fine old ginger ale has a joyous sparkle, a rare
dry flavor which makes it the choice of college connois
seurs all over the U. S. A. Its subtle gingery taste recom
mends it to particular palates. Its pleasing carbonation
makes it go down with a gurgle of goodness. Because
“Canada Dry” is made from pure Jamaica ginger and
does not contain capsicum (red pepper), it docs not
bite the tongue or leave an unpleasant after-effect. Pure,

good a ginger ale can be! It blends well with other
