Night Editori This Issue— Alyce Cook Gracemary Rickman Put Away Childish Things AT our neighboring institu ^tion of higher learning, the University of Washington, the faculty 'are invest igating a fraternity initiation which was Haiti to have caused the serious injury of Lee Young, a fresh man in the university. Voting, it Was claimed, was forced to wilhdraw from school following his initiation into one of the nationals, and for three months has been confined to a hospital. The case happens; to have occurred at Washington, but it might well have been the University of Oregon instead. Here, as at too many other col leges and Universities, it is as sumed as a part of the anti quated 1 radii ions of the insti tution, that it is necesary for a fraternity pledge to submit to a certain amount of horse play, before becoming a full fledged member of the organi zation, even as it is necessary that a freshtnan on the campus constantly Wear a green lid and submit to regular paddlings on the library steps. Such sessions are foolish and unbefitting 1 lie dignity of uni versity students at all times, but even this is as nothing in comparison with tin* too-l're quent eases of actual physical injury that result from initia tions, fraternal and class, such as the one now under investi gation at Washington. The Washington ease is not unique in Hie history of initiations. Only last fall the newspapers carried a dispatch telling of the deatli of a student in a mid-west institution resulting from an electric shock which was part of the fraternity in itiation ceremony. On one occasion, St. Paul, the most noteworthy apostle of the New Testament, remarked that when lie was a child he spake! as a child, thought as a child, and understood as a child, but when he became a man he put ! away all childish things. This; saying lias been accepted as good advice through the yearsj since the time of the evangelist, up until the days of collegiate undergraduates. Isn’t it about time that we put away the childish things which are so prevalent in col legiate life at present? More Uses For Radio DADIO during the 1924 and vmore especially during the 1928 national presidential cam paigns was utilized extensively for electioneering, but it re mained for the University of Oregon politicians to make use of broadcasting in carrying their campaign messages last night to the voting populace. Over KOBE a certain ticket of Candidates in today’s election was championed by means of the spoken word. Notified in I advance, students in various living organizations tuned in. Use of radio in student polities to hear the political address, is indeed an innovation. This is a last age in which we live. Methods of student campaign ing are adapted to these high powered modern times. And iu yesterday’s issue of a local evening paper there was a story predicting the election of the rival candidate. Such are the tactics of the A. S. U. U. democracy. May the best men and women win. Tonight a very important step towards better radio ac tivities for the university over KOBE will be taken when Pro lessor Hugh E. Kosson will fea ture the program inaugurating the Extension Division's coop eration. Until the end of the term every Tuesday, Wednes day and Friday at 8 p. m. there vijl be broadcasted extremely worthwhile programs over KOBE. They will represent the university officially, and every number will be “okayed" by the Extension Division up on whom falls responsibility: for such relations with thej public. Kadio is coming into its own so far as the university is con-1 eerned. r' c/ilVIPUS , ArWijiw' I ‘ 1 should like to register my lit tie howl for today.

' THE COOK Drippings From The Keg Spigot Edited by : : Mike Griffin EMPEROR FRANCIS JOSEPH OF AUSTRIA By Joseph Redlich Among the outstanding recent biographies is tiiis volume recent ly published by MacMillaii. When Emperor Frances Joseph received President Roosevelt in his palace in Vienna, he described himself “the last European monarch of the old school” And in truth he never was a shadow Emperor: from his ascension to the throne at the age of 18; through 60 years of action and suffering, right down to the day when the World War began, his was the deciding will throughout his wide empire. His life therefore is. almost from the beginning, a history, and his biography portrays him by show ing the Europe of Francis Joseph’s day from the standpoint of his per sonal activity as a ruler. The daily demands of his task of maintain ing a great old European empire, of moulding its external policy by de cision derived in the last analysis from liis own judgment of men and things—these made him what lie was as tlie men of his time saw him and as he lives on in the recollec tion of those who knew him.—P.

A* tennis player can be no faster than bis racquet. The Daytoil is the fastest. Perhaps you can't teach some old dogs new tricks—hut the new generation turns always to the rising mode, to the mode of whip-steel speed. It asks for all-steel in its roadsters, its airplanes, its tennis racquets. Certified laboratory tests prove that the Dayton Steel Tennis Racquet has 43% less air resistance than the average wood - and - gut racquet. They prove further that the satne effort drives a ball 20% faster with a Dayton. And that extra 20% gives you the jump on speedier play ers.
