Bu'ndran Act Note or ’ Hold Your Peace Lamentations will come too late for sympathy after today, October 6. A1 Smith and Herbert Hoover will not be on speaking terms with anyone who has neglected to place his 01 her name on the registrations by tonight. I heir campaigns will be directed from now on to 1he interested group rather than to the delinquents who seem content to let the rest of the world go vote. Do you know that fewer than half of the eligible voters used their privilege in the last presidential election? The definition of a democracy where the majority rule seems to be slightly exaggerated. It is d.oubt.less if one vote cast at the* polls represents the opinion of two or more people but that it the situation at present. This is not, however, designed as a wailing plea for eli gible students 1o get out and register. It perhaps wouldii t do any good. All kinds of students are necessary to make up a university as is the case everywhere and among the aggressive there must always be a sprinkling of laggards. Regardless of how big the crowd, you can always pick out this type of individual. At a football game they are the first to stop rooting when the enemy appears to have a slight advantage, And furthermore, they are usually the first to “razz” the governijient which they took no part in selecting. W. II. Commun ications jB* A ■ Uii.Wh M — ■ To tl'i'o I'Jilitor: I was vary glad to see in yes terday’s Emerald an editorial bring ing up for discussion that old can cer on the student body—Open House. Of all the asinine, obsolete and idiotic customs f think Open House is the worst. The plea that it tends to democratize the campus is applesauce. Everybody knows that; but a liandfull become acquainted at the function. Everyone is so tired that it is painful to walk— and walking is the thing of which Open House mostly consists. That goes for the men. The wbmen get off easier, with rests in between calls. The women are the cause of this traditional blight since they are technically hostesses. Let us join in asking them to spare us from their no doubt well-meant hos pitality. Blonde with Mustache, '-’J. To the Editor: Oh! Mr. Editor, please do not get them to stop open house. How will .1 ever get to meet that darling little boy 1 saw playing marbles out in frond of the Sigma Nu house, lie is so cute! 1 just know Open House is a democi'utical influence and I do think that if you wrote a nice editorial telling them just how it was they would alt realize that after all we really ought to have it and I know you will.. 1 don’t know you but I'll bet you're awfully good looking, fall me up some time. Bisturbed and Annoyed, M-. The Cum pus Stroller Observes. WHO W 11,1, WIN TODAY tJoe McKcown, (irosiilt'nj of the ;i ssoo hi l oil students: Oregon, 7 0. It’s going to be a fierce battle.

Robert Demon, senior in business administration and sponsor in Zetn hall of the now dormitory: It will be so close that either one of the teams will win, 7-0.

Hailey, ’27, accepted a position this fall in Medford as pro fessor of public speaking and di rector of publicity for the high school. Previous to his appointment to the teaching staff there Mr. Hailey was in charge of the same work for the Salem high school. He was quite well known on the campus while in school as he par ticipated in varsity debate and was a member of Delta Sigma Rho, na tional honorary forensic fraternity. Seven To Get Results Of (mine at Infirmary Seven Oregon students, three men and four women, will miss the Stan ford game Saturday because they have had 'the ill luck to fall sick at this untimely hour. Those at the infirmary at present are Eugenia Host, sophomore in music: Glad's Mae Baylis, senior in music; llen souia Campon, freshman in English; Wilfred Brown, junior in journalism; Dorothy Macmillan, freshman in ro mance languages; John Dow, fresh man iu business administration, and ITcd Stanley, senior in economics, : TfeSEVEN L SEERS FROM NOW ON WE’RE GOING TO CALL THIS THE UNIVER SITY OF IOWA.

She drove it home to tell tire folks, She really must explain About her pride and joy. Next day She came back on the train! SO THE GAMMA NU’S MADE THEIR NATIONAL Well, well; but how will their parrot ever learn such a long name ? An “Emerald” advertiser has found out what is wrong with Open House, and offers a helpful and original suggestion — “Learn to Dance.” Speaking of dancing, we are re minded that we heard one of the boys from Bagpipe & Kilties, new Scotch fraternity, ask Ilirsh Taylor if they could give their pledge dance on the sidewalk by the Campa Shoppe to save hiring an orchestra. THERE IS AT LEAST ONE DUMB FROSH ON THE CAMPUS. HE THINKS “POP” WARNER IS ONE OF THE OREGON DADS. THERE’S a fresh On the OAMl'US Who has “EVA” FOR a LAST name.

Plans Outlined To Get Oregana Printed on Time Work List for Yearbook Pictures Lasts 53 Days; Prompt Response Asked Although it is early in the year, extensive plans have already been made for the taking of the Orcgana pictures for the coming year. Due to the delay in getting the last yearbook out, Marion Sten and her assistants decided that an early start was necessary to put the an nual out on time. The first work will be the taking of pictures, and one house a day will be accommodated at Kennell-Ellis next to the Rex theatre. I’lans as now outlined by the fraternity and sorority editors of the Orcgana will take 53 days to complete, starting next Monday, October 8, and ending December 11, 1928. Orcgana workers strongly urge that all the houses be prompt in keeping their dates as outlined by the program which follows below. Conflicts destroy the effect of the schedule and promptness of action will prevent any such trouble. Each house will receive cards a week previous to the date on which the sittings are to occur. One of these cards will be taken to Kennell-Ellis two days before the sittings for the purpose of tolling exactly when each person in the house can appear at the studio. One card will also be left at the house to remind members just when they are to appear. Such a system, it is thought, will make it more efficient and easier for the persons concerned. Schedule Given All students not having pictures taken on scheduled time may have them taken between the lltli and 12th of December. The date list follows: October 8—Alpha Xi Delta—Eutli Eelter.

Experiences of former Graduate, Claude Robinson 924 Related Claude Robinson, ’21, former stu- i dent body president, who has been attending Columbia university, New York, for the last two years, relates his experiences since leaving Oregon and tells how he would study were he back in school again. The latter, in part, follows: “If I- could re-order my under graduate training what would I choose? First, I would want to go to college on the Swartlinrore plan. 1 left Oregon without knowing how to study. I secured good grades, yes, .... but 1 was no scholar, nor diil I know how to study. I ‘took’ economics, but I didn’t ‘learn’ eco nomics. 1 prepared lessons, amassed a few facts for examinations, but I missed the real point. First, I did not sense the inter-connectedness of things, nor the challenge of know ledge. No economic conundrum slapped me down and made mo come back fighting mad to seek its solu tion by thumbing through volumes on the subject. No, I prepared les sons and missed the real challenge of it all. Incidentally, I did not develop the resourcefulness and in dependence of a true pcholar. Mind you! I am not bemoaning my fate, nor criticizing my old professors. I love my Oregon galaxy. They taught me ideals, and lifted the curtain on vast new lands of mental life. . . . “Secondly, I would have taken mathematics through calculus . . . . If any undergraduates are prepar ing for Columbia in the field of so cial science, lot them bo wise and learn mathematics .... “Thirdly, I would spend less time in learning to read, speak, and write one language, and would concentrate on learning to read two languages French and German. “Fourth, I would want to learn something about social research . . . In order to reason clearly on social matters, one must have a good criti cal attitude, know the necessities of proof, and bo able to ferret out good evidence from bad, yea, even recog nizo evidence and distinguish it from opinion .... “My first year at Columbia was a disappointment. I had been accus tomed to a friendly faculty, not one that said to its students, ‘Pick up what crumbs you can that fall from our feast table of knowledge.’ . . . However, at the end of the year I was handed the M, A. sheepskin, and I was educated. “The second year things went along more smoothly. I was by then accustomed to New York, and to Columbia’s ‘cold shoulder,’ and I had learned to pick my way along in my field. I wrote some papers for the advanced seminar and be gan to learn. “To continue. Last year again I attended Columbia half time, work ing half time to cover expenses, and being aided a little by a $300 schol arship. In the spring I applied for, and was granted, the Gilder Fellow ship, with a stipend of $1200, and with this aid I shall be studying full time this coming year.” December 4—Theta Chi — Russ Ferris. December d—Delta Tau Delta—Ed Applegrcn. December. 6—Gamma Phi Beta— Evelyn Dow. December 7—Sigma Kappa—Lu cile Larson. December S—Chi lJsi — Fletcher Uclall. December 10—Hendricks hull— Thelma Lehman. December 11—Hendricks hall— Thelma Lehman. , ,, Tribute (Continued from Page One) me the position of curator of the herbarium. “Last year, while I was engaged in my botanical researches in Henry and Malheur counties, Mr. Biddle drove through and gave me between three and four weeks of his time and companionship, carrying me over those two immense counties himself very much interested in the study of the plants and likewise as much interested in what I was doing for the University. “Two years ago Mr, Biddle came to see Professor Sweetser and me, and while talking about botanical matters generally, and especially about the need of steel cases for our herbarium, quietly sat down at -- the desk and wrote out his check for $350 for the first steel case, and another followed shortly after wards. “ ‘ Watch my smoke, when I get back to Portland,’ he said; a few weeks afterwards, Professor Swect ser received a letter containing 10 checks for $350 each, from himself and prominent Portland people. “Such a friend cannot cease to bo loved and respected, even in .death.” Oregon Spirit Starts Peppy Night Rally Oregon Spirit, long pent up, over flowed last night when an informal rally and pajama parade was held on the campus. Where the parade started is a matter of speculation, but once started it steadily gained in strength until there were many enthusiastically cheering men in the winding line. It was the real Ore gon Spirit—no rough house but earnest cheering and marching in pajamas of all hues. Plenty noise was made by the shouting line and all of the favorite Oregon yells and songs were rendered. At the game today let us have more of this same spirit, the real Oregon fight; let tho team know wo are backing them till the last whistle. Today is the last day for registra tion of voters for the presidential election which will come on No vember 6. Warning! Don’t forget to exchange your tickets at the Co-op for the game today. No student body tickets accepted at the gate! All girls that are interested in tak ing office hours at the Y. }V. C. A. bungalow are urged to call Alias Thomas and talk to her. As soon as Ruth Jaynes, comes back from, conference, a committee will bo organized with these girls and def inite committee work will be done. Sportwriters, Scouts < From S.
