Night, Editor This Issue—Alyce Cook Braver Goal Posts Safe After Oregon Wins Game An impartial bystander watching (lie cheering multitudes after Saturday's game on Bed field must have been impressed with the controlled enthusiasm of Oregon students as they swarmed and serpentined around 0. A. 0. goal posts. Last year such a person would have seen a different sight. , In 1027. the Aggies, victorious on Hayward field, rushed the Oregon students assembled around the goal posts. They tore down the cross bars as one brazen demonstration of ungentle manly conduct. They did it List year, why shouldn't the victorious univer sity supporters retaliate by the same methods? 'lint this year the victors did not start a riot. Perhaps the men from Cor vallis were disappointed. Were they surprised? Could they comprehend ? For the students from Eugene never once forgot who they were or what they represented. They are to be congratulated on that splendid demonstration of enthusiastic but courteous ex pression of their sportsmanship. Oregon is a good winner. W. E. II. jr.

Tho groat amount of pub licity lias not illuminated tlie situa tion in the least. If Is therefore of interest to the university commu nity lo inquire into the reasons for this failure. The reasons apparently lie ideal' at hand. Any investigation worthy the inline should aim ill arriving ill the truth by first hand inquiry, not from hearsay evidence taken by politically interested persons. This means that the investigation of any problem should be undertaken by impartial persons endowed with the proper intellectual equipment and with the elements at least of tech nical training. The medical situation in any com munity is not an exception to this principle. The old folk rule is founded on the profoundest com- j moll sense, that a man should be [tried only by a jury of his peers. | •Passing over the intellectual quali fictitious of the “investigating” | • committee, we do mil observe that | the members are technically expert ] ■ except in politics and advertising. Might we ask the members of this committee if they are qualified to pass on questions of elementary | science, not to mention matters re quiring the specific training which would be necessary lo make of any value an inquiry into a medical situation l Wo have both been under treat ment at the university health sorv ■ ice, and have found that the plivsi- i cians in charge have rendered ad mirable and competent service from every point of view. The fact that the state has not provided adequate I>li\ sii.11 equipment tor the health sendee ami tin- int'iruiar\ is not tlio fit nit of tlio iloctors.

It is eustomary for politieal rum mittens investigating any questions aft'orting llie re|iutntiou of a pro fessional or teelinleal sen ire, to em ploy experts in that field to find him the farts. Until this lias hern ilono, publicity is a wanton breaeli of privilege, snlijert to legal artion for libel, if professional reputations are damaged.

What Oregon Students Think Campus Vieics on Day’s Topics Arc Gathered By Inquiring Reporter Today’s question: What do you think of Oregon Spirit after the O. A. C. game? Fred Bauman, junior in economics: “ll’s right up and coming and just like if has always been since I’ve been hero.” Keith Hall, junior in business ad ministration: “I think Oregon Spirit seems to hold more of an air of satisfaction and confidence than it has in the past few years since we have had such a fine showing in football this year.” Dorothy (irote, freshman in gen eral art: “1 think it’s wonderful in comparison to the spirit at Wash ington, but I do believe that it should have been displayed more after the O. A. C. game.” Lloyd Ruff, freshman in science: “I think everybody is chicken hearted since the O. A. C. game. Several rallies were started yes terday but no support was given. Everyone seems to have failed to study over the week-end and pro ceeded to do so on Monday.” Henry-Etta La Moree, sophomore in allied arts: “Oregon spirit is dead, it hasn’t shown the pep it should after the (). A. (!. victory. Nil rally was scheduled and there was no Oregon Spirit.” DUCK SOUP Remember the contest is on again this week.

Fifteen Years Ago From Oregon Emerald Nov. 20, 1913 For the first time in history mem bers of the Oregon football team will wear numbers on the backs of their jerseys when they play Mult nomah club at Portland Saturday.

Calgary, Alta., March 1, 1928 U. S. A. Gentlemen: While in TTnr.fi-, Alberta, in 1909, T climbed Tunned Mountain. On top of this mountain there is a cairn of stones where tourists leave their cards with remarks about* the scenery, etc. Not. having a card with me, I left a tin of Edgeworth Sliced, scribbled my name and address on a piece of paper, and said. ‘‘Have a till on me.” I have kept up a haphazard corre spondence with one of three who wrote me thanking me for the Pipeful of Edgeworth. What makes me write you is that today from Australia I received two slices of Edgeworth with the words, “Have a till on me,” so you see Edgeworth keeps friends friendly. Yours sincerely, P. B. Johnstone Edgeworth Extra High Grade Smoking Tobacco Oregon Duck, 'Humiliated’ by Beaver At Aggies’ Homecoming, Still Quacks “Beat Oregon, It’s a Habit” . . . These words looked rather drab and 'sorry after the game Saturday. Many and various were the signs I predicting Oregon’s defeat at the Corvallis institution, and figuring in many of them was the famous j Oregon duckling. The duckling, ac ! cording to many of the Aggies questioned, was worked this year more than any year before. Every possible position was thought up ! for the poor little bird’s discomfort. One of the house signs depicted a duck pfmd with a beaver sitting on the edge with a gun. At inter vals a duck would swim across the . pond and squak, the beaver would shoot, and the duck would drop into 1 the water. Another sign showed a huge Aggie holding a duck by the neck, with a beaver at bis feet. The player would squeeze the duck’s neck, the duck would squawk, and the beaver would flap bis tail. “Webfoot cemeteries” also were rather popular at the houses. One ; of the houses had the whole front yard transformed into a cemetery | with 11 graves, each headstone bearing the name of a Webfoot gridster. In the background 11 beavers, dressed in mourning, head ed by Howard Maple, were bewail ing the death of the Webfeet. An other house had four graves in its front yard, one for 192d. 1920, 1927 and 1928, each bearing the score of that year, the 1928 one being blank. Yellow lilies were planted on the graves of the departed year’s games, and the 1928 grave, freshly dug, with the dirt still at the side, stood ominously waiting for the end of the game. At 10 o’clock Saturday evening it was still unfilled. One of the most original signs showed a huge beaver with a half j lemon in his grasp standing by a large replica of a lemon crusher, the type used in the drink dispensing parlors. At intervals his arm would go down, the half lemon would become illu minated, carried into the crusher, and a cleverly placed set of lights showed drops of lemon juice com ing front the crushed fruit, and end ing with a big splash, the falling drops spelling “Beat Oregon,” and the splash, “It’s a Habit.” Natty Costumes and Informality To Reign at Journalism Jamboree It' you moot Ole Black Joe, or Santa Claus, or Pocaliontos or Charlie Chaplin or Uncle Sam navi j gating o’er the campus long about !) o’clock Friday night, don’t head for Salem.

THE air map of America is now in the making—on the ground. Ten.years ago, there were 2IS miles of air mail routes with two station stops; to-day, a network of sky roads bridges the country from the Atlantic to the Pacific and from Canada to the Gulf of Mexico. Can you imagine this growth without electricity—without illuminated airports—without trunk lines studded with elec tric beacons? Men of vision are building for increasing traffic of the air. Soon, the skies will be filled with commerce. Just as electricity is helping to conquer the air, the land, and the sea to-day, so to-morrow it will lead to greater accom plishments in aviation and in every human activity GENERAL ELECTRIC COMPANY,' SCHENECTADY, NEW YORK -
