Night Editor This Issue—■ Alyce Cook Ted Hewitt How It Feels To Win A Football Game (Continued from l’ar/e One) 1926 Oregon won only one game—Hint from California, which did not once record a victory. Last year the Webfoots made one touchdown in live games. No wonder it’s a great feeling to win. And no wonder 3000 football crazy students wanted to prolong that exceedingly pleasant moment yesterday, and staged one of the greatest rallies Oregon has ever seen. It was a wise move on the part of the administration that the campus was allowed to blow off the long repressed outburst of enthusiasm with official sanction —for it would have come anyway. It was unavoidable. And 1he recognition of that fact by the university will tend to create a greater sense of responsibility in’ the student body, so that it will not soon again request the privilege. Having tasted victory the student body will not be content with defeat. Here’s to a massacre of California! Hoover or A1 Smith By L. FENTAYSON A. 10. Caswell, professor of phy sics, is nil original Hoover booster. He Inis heard of Herb since college days in .Stanford. The .Republican candidate went through that institution about ten years before Dr. Caswell, and many of the same professors were teach ing. Hoover hud not yet distin guished himself in the public eye, but his professors were enthusiastic in their praise of his ability and their belief in his future success. During the war, Dr. Caswell fol lowed Hoover’s relief work in Bel gium with great interest. ‘‘I’ve never voted for a Republi can presidential candidate; but I’m going to this year,” he stated. "There's not much choice between the two parties. Head their plat forms. They are alike as two peas in a pod. “The choice is between the men they are as different as the poles. Due is a man of high ideals, of al truism, who believes in the same things that 1 do; the other is a politician of the ranker sort. "The Harding administration was far from what it should have been; but the organization which is back ing .Smith, Tammany, is just as corrupt.” Dt. Caswell has no particular love for the Republican parly, or for its pits! record in office; but he con siders other issues of more import mice. “Smith was nominated by the bosses of the Democratic party. The Republican bosses didn’t want Hoover, but the popular demand was so loud that they had to nominate him.” Dr. Caswell expects to see Hoover carry all but five states. The fact that the South is dr\ and Protestant, he believes, will hurt Smith votes t here considerably. “Some folks say to me, ‘Volt're letting your religious preferences interfere when you vote for lloov or. ’ But that's not the case. Jt the Democrats lmd nominated Sena tor Walsh, who like Smith is a Catholic, I would lone hesitated a long while before voting for Hoover, backed by the Republican party. There is absolutely nothing in lloov er's record to show that, he has ever been in the least dishonest.” Spirit (Continued from Vagc Dae) "Aw nothing. 1 didn’t hear him, either.” Turning back to parade outside again, thorn .nine a lusty cry of " No school! ” "Where next.' "Igloo!” "Where!" “Igloo for a rail' and dunce.” “Wall, bo!” More lloise than ever, And Igloo bound went the jamming c re wd. "Oregon, Oregon! Rail! Rah! Oregon! That phrase broke loost as the doo: s of .McArthur court op ened to the rallying hordes. Oregon songs becniiu ‘lw subject of activity among the rooters.! “Let's dance! We want uiusie!’ Soon, a piano cnino on to the floor, i A saxophone player and the piauist : started the musical notes agoing. And then the crowd broke up to dance. Dancing Halted. A dance or two, and then appears atop a chair in the middle of tho floor, Joe McKeown, president of the associated students. Joe brought a piece of saddening nows. The students’ demands for a holiday could not be granted be cause President Hall and Karl On tlmnk, executive secretary of the University, were not in Eugene at the time, and therefore no one was authorized to proclaim Monday a day of celebration. However, the student president brought the glad tidings that there would be no classes at 11 o’clock and that there would be a rally dance at 4 o’clock. Proxy McKeown used some psy chology to persuade his fellow stu dents to return to their nine o’clock classes. But, immediately- after the 10 o’clock classes, the serpentine formed with the band at the head of the line. Oregon spirit broke loose again. It appears likely that additional appropriations will have to be made for McArthur court to pay for the repairs of the walls and the win dows which must have cracked un der tho strain of the tumult of noise that echoed through the Igloo as two different serpentines marched around the basketball floor. Oregon spirit could never have been as great as it was yesterday I when the football men trotted on to the stage at McArthur court, for it,' was almost impossible for one to i hear himself talk. Hold everything! An oskey! A i team yell! McEwan Full of Pep Noise supreme came ringing out as Oaptain .John ,1. MrEwan appeared before Oregon students for the first lime lliis year, and he gave indica tions that he would never forget 1 his memorable day. Me Ewan had finally built a team that was able to instill a new Ore gon spirit on the campus. lie had made a new team, lie had made a new school. The captain apologized to the stu dents because he had a cold. 1’his coM stuff quickly got into the players* heads. They also hail a cold as proved by that fighting little halfback, “Cliuek” Williams. And whim Williams had tendered his excuse, his teammates quickly jumped off the stage for fear that worse was yet to come to the rest of them. Greatest Noise Rally Music by the band, yells, noise of all kinds ended the greatest mdse rally that ever followed an Oregon football game. In the afternoon, a large rally dame was held at McArthur court beginning at l o’clock. Musis was t urn is lied by the (’ampa shoppe or chestra which jileased about a thou sand students who made merry at the Igloo affair.

Boy Byington will speak. (Cuntinued from 1’uye One) different in temperment than we are?” he was asked. “Oriental peoples are essentially contemplative,” Hr. Rowbotham re plied, and lie characterized as “ex trenndy unlovely” some examples of the application of Western methods in the East. “But one can say that of all periods of transition, I sup pose,” he said. There are two aspects of the uni fication of China, he thinks: the internal and the external. The in ternal aspect is that of the strength ening and the centralizing of the government and the external in volves the throwing off of foreign aggression. The sensitiveness of the Chinese to the shame of their present situation has overemphasiz ed the importance of the foreign aggression aspect, he explained. “There is a tendency in China to lay the blame of everything on the foreigner, and that is not fair,” I)r. Rowbotham continued. “The young Chinese see things that need to be remedied and they strike out blind ly in any direction. The salvation of China will come from the Chinese themselves. But they are more like ly to destroy themselves than to be destroyed by outside powers.” The anti-Christian feeling in China ho thinks is the result of this blind ■striking-out at anything in the way of their unity. As a matter of tact, he says, the initiative of the Protestant missionaries has been the cause of the wonderful progress in the education of women. “The Chinese student is a very sensitive' young man,” lie explained, especially about matters involving national honor. Eoreign aggression is felt very keenly, and “They dis- ! Girl’s Hot Tip Steers Student to Favorite Pipe Tobacco San Francisco, Cal. Larus & Pro. Co. Richmond, Va. Gentlemen: Since 1 first started to smoke, I i have always smoked cigarettes. One day SHE said to me “Ed, dear, why don’t you smoke a pipe. 1 think those long straight-stemmed pipes are so manly-looking.” So, naturally, 1 had to buy a long stemmed pipe and a can of well, we’ll call it “Blubs Mixture tobacco.” Im mediately with a certain feeling of pride in my new pipe, I “lighted up” and proceeded to have my tongue bit ten. 1 tried almost every brand I had ever heard of, but none satisfied me. Sadly, 1 had to confess to HER that, as a pipe smoker 1 w as a good die titian. "Did you try Edgeworth?” she asked. “That is what dad smokes, and he's always smoked a pipe.” So 1 was forced to try Edgeworth, and all that I can say is that if every fellow that has tried to accustom him self to a pipe, started with Edgeworth, there would be very few that would go back to cigarettes. Yours sincerely, lEd Maher Ldgeworth Extra High Grade Smoking Tobacco like most bitterly the rapacious policy of the West in China since the beginning of the 19tli century. This tremendous feeling of disgrae has caused the Chinese students in the last five years to spend a great deal of their energy in politics.” These “very earnest and very good” •students have wasted the energy they have spent on polities in the last five years. “The intellectual side of the rev olution has made much more prog ress than the political side. The reform of the Chinese educational system, which is going on gradually but definitely in spite of political disturbance, is one aspect. And re form of the Chinese language is an other aspect. The last includes the introduction of a phonetic system and the use of the ‘ei hua, ’ or com mon language, instead of the ‘wen li,’ the highly abstract and stilted language that is the Latin of Chi nese literature, as a form of liter ary- expression. “The Chinese people are studious. They are proud of their history and their culture. And they are very polite—don’t speak openly to for eigners about their ‘shame.’ ” Nev ertheless, according to Dr. Bowbo tham, there is an undercurrent of intense desire among the Chinese to free themselves from foreign bonds. Foreign concessions are bringing more wealth into China and more happiness to the people, lie thinks, in spite of the opposition of the people. “The United States’ policy of the last few years in China has been extremely fair, extremely sound, and extremely workable,” he said. He is not an apologist for the American policy in China, he says. He thinks it has been that of an enlightened nation, and is all that China can rationally expect. “Japan’s attitude has been that the only way to further her trade is to use the big stick. Tanaka fav ors that method,” Dr Bowbotliam said. These methods have been suc cessful because China lacks a strong central government. “Medieval anarchy” in which chieftains con stantly fought among themselves, is his description of the country up to the present time. “Wouldn’t the interference of outside powers serve to unify these chieftains and make China present a solid front against foreign ag gression?” he was asked. The Japanese and British boy cotts united them for a time, he replied, but the results were not per manent. “The Chinese are too will ing to compromise. They won’t conic out and fight for a moral issue, if they know what a moral issue is. That has been the cause of a great deal of vascillation in the government. That is the reason they acceded to the 21 demands of Japan in 191").” If China had op posed Japan then, had even allowed her to invade the country, the peo ple might have been permanently unified, he thinks. When a Chinese official gets into a “tight” place, he resigns, Dr. Bowbotliam said, il lustrating an important difference between the East and the West. “Two things are working for i Chinese unity, however: first, the I creation of a public opinion, which j is slowly but definitely growing, j and second, the necessity of effi i cieney along Western lines if China is to be a great nation. “The present time is a period of 1 pause, of taking breath. Wars have 1 bled the country white—if that can be said of China. For the first time l we have a dominant party in control j of the government: the Nationalist j party. The power lies in the hands ; of four leaders. The problem is, are these leaders going to submit their j ambition to the common cause?” Suspicion and ambition among the leaders and the doctrine of compro mise, of moderation, preached by Confucianism are barring the ad vance of China, Dr. Bowbotham be lieves. “Desire for power is a strong characteristic of all Oriental peoples from the head of the gov | crnment to the lowest coolie,” he said. The young Chinese feel that their initiative is being destroyed by the willingness of the people to compromise. The crux of the whole situation, as Dr. Bowbotham sums it up, is the establishment of a strong central . government that will inspire other nations with confidence in China’s ability to protect foreign loans necessary • to develop the vast re , sources of the country. Prof. F. S. Dunn Speaks At Banquet of D. A. R. Professor F. S. Dunn, of the Latin department, was one of the three speakers at the banquet of the S. A. B. and D. A.

Professor Dunn spoke on “A Plea for the Tory in Ameri can History.” He also tried to show that our present alliance with France is a strategic stand on the part of Franco and is not the result of any friendly spirit that it has for us.
