A Prof Points to How Much We
Believe Without Reason
A New York coll«*g«? professor, 1 uivi 11g a bit of spare time, [
-ompiled tin* following list of statements, which lie found upon j
■xamination to lie considered true by an entire class of sup
posedly educated men and women:
1. It is almost fatal to eat lobster and follow it up with
ice cream.
2. Red headed persons always have hot tempers.
:{. Winters were longer and colder when we were rounder.
4. Dew “falls.”
r>. Tan shoes are warmer for summer wear than black.
6. Shaving makes the hair grow faster.
7. bong slender nails indicate an artistic nature.
5. A high forehead indicates superior intelligence.
!). There is “something” in astrology.
It). The liquid contained in the center of many golf balls
will cause instant and total blindness.
11. All Scotchmen are penurious.
12. All Chinese smoke opium.
1'1. Lightning never strikes twice in the same place.
14. One hour's sleep before midnight is worth two after
midnight. "
If the last statement were altered to read, “An hour’s
sleep through an eight o’clock is worth ten at any other time.”
then probably Oregon students would accept most of above
allegations, which this professor, after having taken the trouble
to find out that the class disagreed with him. labelled “de
lusions.
The professor might have extended his list to great length
and still found ardent believers. hi very group has its own
particular set of fetishes in addition to those of general appli
cation. Many Oregon students, for instance, believe—for no
reason at all that:
1. There is something inherently valuable in traditions
and that they ought to be enforced with a paddle.
2. There might be some legitimate excuse for publication
of the Oregana.
It. The Co-op ought to be able, to give books away free.
4. An hour spent in decorating the Igloo for a class dunce
is worth more than two spent in the library.
•">. Student “probes” are a good way to pass away time at
the university.
ti. The student council is worth a whoop.
Editorial Board
'Makes Whoopee’
The Kmerald editorial board, consisting of three of tin;
most puissant intellects (opinions differ oil this) to be found
on the campus, met yesterday to consider the problems that j
had piled up since the previous meeting. It is the custom of
the board to wait until a sufficient number id' questions accum
ulate to occupy it for its usual meeting period of oite hour.
At yesterday's meeting several questions of national moment
were waiting our decision. Cal had wired three times to find
out how we stood on the Cruiser Rill and Clenienceau was cab
ling frantically about some matter in connection with kVa lice's
new internal program Hoover was clamoring for his inaugural
speech which he had asked us to write and A1 Smith had w rit
ten politely asking w hat we thought his chances against (teorgo
Baker for Mayor of 1’ortland were. \Ve took care of these
matters and the remainder of the hour was free for discussion.
"Boys, let us make whoopee,' said one fit our younger
colleagues.
“Whoopoot” we suggested
“Yes, whoopee. Surelv you know how to make whoopee?
Why everybody makes whoopee,” replied the light artillery.
"You assume falsely, youth. Everybody is not a whoopee
maker. We not only cannot make whoopee but we would
not recognize whoopee if we saw it made. Now tell us in detail
what whoopee is. where it originated, and by what process it
is manufactured' giving dates and authorities for all your as
sertions, tired back one of us big guns.
"The quintessence of whoopee.” replied the Kid (we call
him Kid but he is a I'lii Beta Kappa and up to the age of 11
could old\ walk sideways) "is apple sauce. In fact, it is a lot
ike I his editorial.’'

Realizing the difficult task it is
to write a movie scenario, Duck 3oup j
is supplying one which the directors
of the campus cinema may use a la

The first scene is the Woman’s

its steeples moving to and fro, sum

Then the student body comes in
and sings Mighty Oregon. That is
to say it looks like Mighty Oregon
because this is not a talking pic
ture. One lone O. A. C. man is at
the bottom of the crush singing
Mighty O. A. C., Mighty Idaho,
Mighty Massachusetts School of
Technology.
The students march on toward the
assembly, but by some slip-up, all
but a small percentage miss the
door and slide on by.
Inside on the stage sits the only
person in the building, Joe Ms
Kcown, A. 8. U. O. proxy, and Art
Anderson.

It turns out later that these are

Today’s Question: Which do you I
like better—serenades with a jazz ,
orchestra or a typical serenade with
songs 1
Mary Koon, junior in art: “I
think they should have both, and
play a jazzy piece first to awaken \
the sleepers.”
Olive Banks, senior in music: j
“I think singing is the truer type 1
of serenade. It is more sentimental j
than an orchestra.”
Ruth Belter, senior in English: ‘‘I i
like it best with songs because a '
jazz orchestra usually sounds rather
brassy and blaring in the night!
when one is about half way asleep.”
Mildred Lowdon, senior in physi
cal education: “1 believe I really
like the songs best because they
seem more impressive and don’t
ruin the stillness of the night as an
orchestra does.”
Mildred Clark, senior in history:
“I think that the serenades with
songs are nicer, but the orchestras
can be heard so much plainer.”
Whitman Man Begins
‘ Wearing the Raccoon’
WHITMAN COLLEGE, Walla
Walla, Wash., Jan. 29—(P.I.P.) —
A new era in Whitman life has
dawned at last. All the disappoint
ed collegians who had been disillu
sioned by the cartoons in the Col
lege Humor have not lived in vain.
At last—a Whitman man owns a
real collegiate fur coat.
Oregon Students Have Ideas
On Actions if Sex Changed
(Continued from Page One)
“I’d want to be a sheik, wear a
derby, and carry a cane on special
occasions. 1 would wear a “tux”
as much as possible and wear a cute
“frenchy” mustache when I became
a senior. I would flirt on all oeca- j
sions. I’d go out for athletics too,
and wear a raccoon coat and have a
Chandler roadster. ^1 'd take long j
trips up the McKenzie in my car,
with whom?—that’s nobody's busi
ness.”
On just the opposite side of the
question a freshman man starts out:
“First I’d find out what all the
girls thought about me. I’d snoop
around, lucking up inside dope, and
learning the feminine attitude.
With this accomplished I would
seek the quickest method" to return
to the realm of the stronger sex and j
lie the possessor of a point of view j
few men have.”
A junior soliloquizes that: “I
think I should like to make myself
as attractive as possible, but I
\yould reserve my freedom from any
domination by the male sex. I would
try to prepare my intelligence so
that I would be a useful contribu
tion to the world, and so that my
children would reflect that I had
possessed a measure of Intelligence
beyond the average. In regard to
my social attitude, my mind would

the best allegiance for a happy
life.”
Last of all, a prominent junior in
the pre-medics school offered: “'I ,
would cultivate a line where in the j
‘dirty corduroys’ and the ‘O
sweaters’ would be nothing in com
parison. I would work to a point
where I would be equal to the fe
inale ‘vamp.’ On a date, I would
be as pleasant and cheerful as I
could, and I would not let the boy

Dean Faville Injured
Skiing on McKenzie
While skiing'Sunday, Dean David
E. Faville, of the school of business
administration at Oregon, sprained
his ankle.
The dean was with a party which
left Eugene Sunday morning to go
up the McKeireie and participate in
the winter sports available at this
season of the year.
The injury followed Dean Fa

after he had strapped on his skis.
A loosened strap was partly respon
sible for the fall.
Dean Faville is using a crutch
today, but hopes to dispense with its
aid before the end of the week.
