M ulni*rlit con spiracies are becoming com mon. I'or elections are in the offing, and the political ma cliines are being steamed up. h'roin time immemorial, the officers of the A. S. II. O. have been elected under a constitu tional system which encourages machines, which encourages handshaking, which encourages log rolling, which encourages a lony complicated string of candidates, which provides the best political plums to those or ganizations who best direct the ‘pigging” activities of their members, and which requires that a multitude of twenty leaders must lie selected to take care of activities which three or lour candidates could read ily perform. file last o! these cha ryes against the present political system of the associated slu dents is the one to which the Kmerahl directs serious alien lion. There are too many slu deni officers! .Any system is subject to change under changed coudi tious. When the A. S. |!.

Recognize Those Who Made It Possible / V\.M l’l!1.1.1 j Memorial f ine A Arts building will Ik1 built, construction to start by May 1. This was determined when «)• II. Koke, gift campaign chairman lor the memorial, an nounced at a banquet of several hundred Kugeiieans, that the necessary .+fvd,0< H) had been raised. iu fact, the total aniouul «► 11<'<-1 < •< l on (bat «I a 1 c was $15:3,253.00 — +tj,250.50 above the goal wet. A gift of such magnitude is certainly worthy of the high est praise. Jt represents a per capita investment, of $7.65 for each man, woman, and child in the city of Eugene. In Port land the same per capita sub scription would raise .+2,500,000 and would be considered a thing of great importance. It is indeed a great accomplish ment and is symbolical of a real civic spirit. J>cgiiii over a year ago, I lio campuign I'ur $150,000 was headed by a Eugene business man, *1, IX. Ivoke. Ending on April 1, it was still headed by the same man and the jgoal passed. One leading business man was so anxious to hear the success of the campaign that he offered to buy the din ner for all those who contri buted if the goal was readied by the date set. At the ban quet the news was broken and all doubt (if any existed) as to Eugene’s cooperative spirit, was removed. Coaxing money from people requires a great deal of tact as well as the ability to show a discerning group just how the cause advocated is a worthy and valuable one. Fighting ability to the last degree is a primary requisite. Without the 100 per cent cooperation of Eugeneans, however, Mr. Ivoke could not have, succeeded. Their pride is to see Eugene a center of attraction for edu cation, art, religion, and all things of a cultural value. Sucli response shows tile indo mitable spirit that pervades the atmosphere of this ideal college town. A New College For the Campus yi I EKE should be estab lished at all large univer-j cities a College of Bologna. | There is a greater need fori I In' establishment of I bis sort of a college I ban for i he main i teminco of the many now iu| existence. There is no doubt, in lhe minds of many, tbat f>0 per cent of the freshmen at tending tile I ’nix ei'sity of Min-' nesota. for instance, are doing' so for the specific purpose of either finding a husband or a wife, or inhaling a bit of col legiate culture. There are boys and girls who lament over coming examine lions. They shudder over the marks they expect. The fear does not conic from any desire to remain in a university, but rather because of the wrath of parents, tt is because of par ents who insist that their chil dren acquire at least a year’s! culture in college, that the Col lege of Bologna would have a! large enrollment. The College- of Bologna: w ould be filled with students i who wish to acquire a year’s reputation as a student in a university without coiitrilmt , ing any mental effort. The' College of Bologna would re fresh the minds of these wor ried students. It would per mit a freer circulation of soc ially inclined students. But,; without a doubt, the prejudice of academic minds would pro hibit tlie establishment of any sort of an institution at Minne sota.—Minnesota Daily.

A Satire By Wilfred Brown BOOK II (Continued) And in my dream I saw Student surmount the crest of a small hill and come upon a great multitude of other pilgrims gathered together in a long line, surrounded by a group of Knights bearing staves. Among them there was the knight who had advised Student on the way, and when he caught sight of Student, he cried: KNIGHT: Behold, here cometh another. Avaunt, l’rosh. Into the line. Off with thy neckwear and up with thy breeches leg. STUDENT: What now, O good sir' May I not proceed on ray way? I fear me that unless I hasten I shall never reach the Golden City of Education. KNIGHT: Argue not. All pil grims must pass through this cere mony on entering the land. And so saying he smote Student with the stave which he bore. STUDENT: But good sir. Our purpose is to be on toward the Gold j en City of Education, and not to be ! dallying here in the Land of Col legia. KNIGHT: Argue not. Off with thy neckwear ami up with thy breeches leg. The law was writ by the first pilgrim who ever entered into the Happy Land of Collegia and hath been since enforced from generation to generation. It is not for such as thee to question. Argue not, but fall in. And in my dream I saw the pil grims perform the sacred ceremony of the laud which is required of all, ave mils the Athletes, who pass 111 rough the Happy Land of Collegia. The Knights conducted them unto a great strip of smooth stone, the which was wet and covered with yellow paint. Student and each of the other pilgrims in turn was obliged to lay himself down upon the stone and to slide to the foot of it, thereby liberally covering himself from head to foot with a coat of yellow paint. At the foot of the stone the Knights formed two lines through which they forced the pilgrims to run, smiting them with their staves the while. All day the ceremony continued. Now the pilgrims marched along the roads singing lewd songs which were taught to them by the i Knights. Now each one bowed him self low and walked to kiss the sac red seal of the land between two rows of Knights who smote him heavily the whiles. The ceremony closed with a series of gladitorial combats in which the. inhabitants of the Earn! of Collegia delight. Some of the pilgrims. Stu dent among them, were forced to mount thy backs of others, as of horses, and were supplied with lances bearing on the ends great sponges soaked in lampblack, the object being for each man to dis figure as much as possible and inci dentally to dethrone, if it were pos sible, his opponent. . . Student strove valiantly, but the odds were against him, and he went .down before an half score other riders, bruised and covered with lampblack over the paint. Many other contests (lid Stu dent enter for the edification of the spectators, who made great sport of the matter. At one time when commanded to enter a game which consisted of running to the center of the field and returning with a stick, if it wore possible to do so. Student turned and spake unto a Knight who stood nigh. STUDENT: What doth it profit, good sir* Wherein doth it aid me to reaeli my goal, the Golden City of Education, by engaging in such childishness.’ Of what profit can i! be to those other pilgrims who stand nigh I beseech thee, good sir, let me have done and be oil uiy way again. Hut the Knight only smote him with his stave saving: KNIGHT: Argue not, Erosh. The law was writ bv the first pilgrim I who ever did enter into the Happy | I,and of Collegia, and hath been since enforced from generation tj I generation. I| is not for such as j Mice to (po st ion, but it is necessary that ::11 who would journey to the : Golden City of Education pass! Through this ordeal. • (To be continued) .

C. A. in Grand Rapids, Michigan. By OSBORNE HOLLAND The unusual is always welcomed by t lie public, a/id “Submarine,” now playing' at the McDonald, is certainly an out of the ordinary production. Jack Holt and Ralph Graves make an excellent starring team as members of Uncle Sam’s navy and share honors equally. Dorothy Rcvier is well cast also, and faithfully portrays the sailor’s sweetheart without over emphasiz ing her ride. The directing and camera work seems exceptionally good for a drama of the sea and present some very thrilling scenes seldom seen on the screen. That same old, over worked plot of faithless wives is about the only objectionable part of the picture and is rather badly managed at that, llut the action and novelty of “Sub marine*’ successfully cover up the outstanding flaws uud fill the pro duction with very good entertain ment. To expect to find reality in a film of this kind is to expect tlie impossible, but this picture conies nearer to portraying real naval life thau most of its kind.

Leo Friedman Visits Canadian University The University ol' British Colum bia, about six miles out of Yam Oli ver, was one of the most interesting spots visited by J>r. Leo Friedman, who with Vasily Kniusiff, graduate student in physiology, made a trip to Canada spring vacation. The university, one of the most beauti fully planned Dr. Friedman ever saw, was so poorly equipped during the war that chemistry students did their laboratory work in tents. Xow it lias a million dollar science build The change was brought about by an intensive campaign on the part of till' students, ending when each student—2.500 of them—brought a rock to the campus and formed a great pile. A monument has since been built on the spot. While on the trip Dr. Friedman also visited the chemistry depart ments of the University of Wash ington and College of Puget Sound at Tacoma, where a. meeting of the American Chemical society will be held. When in Port Townsend, Dr. Friedman made arrangements to do research work for the National Paper Products company this sum mer. Tear (>as Used to Halt Michigan Student Riot ANN A1UJOB, Alich. —(IP)—Ap proximately four thousand Univer sity of Michigan students were dis persed with tear bombs here last week after doing damage estimated at $2,0110 to a theater in which they staged a riot. The appearance of President Clarence Cook Little had much to do with the ending of the scrap with the police who were Called to the scene after the students, cele brating a basketball victory over Wisconsin, stormed a theater.

Style Rules New Era •M"*1 P+di Colors Get Good Price Merchandising is in a style era, according to Professor J. T. Brown of the University of Oregon school of business administration, in his article, “This Style-Hidden Merchan dising,” winch appeared in the March issue of Western Advertis ing. Consideration of style—selection of goods because they arc “smart” or “new”—was once mainly lim ited to the field of rcudy-to-wear merchandise. But today style per vades almost every field and plays a part of increasing influence in the marketing of practically all con sumers’ goods. ‘ Professor Brown gives as ex amples of such merchandise as sil verware with colored handles, color ed gas ranges, pocket knives, kodaks and typewriters. Manufacturers find that a higher price may be ob tained for style merchandise than for staples. Caswell Writes Article Fur ‘Science’ Magazine Dr. A. E. Caswell, head of the department of physics, has recently had an article accepted bv “Science” on the “Eolation Between Distances of the Planets and the Sun.” In tiiis article lie has shown that (he distances are arranged propor tionate to the square of the integral numbers and may be compared to the arrangement of the electrons in an atom, thus making a much more exact calculation of the distances than was possible ' before when Bode’s law was applied.
