But differences arose between them. They quarreled and broke up. The blow was hard on the young man and with his horizon dark with clouds of despair he withdrew from col lege. Shattered romance made it impossible to stay then!. Packing up his personal effects he started for San Francisco— to ship out on a boat for the Orient if he could land a job. lie was not a sailor by experience, but tin* thousands of miles of ocean, the boat, the distant lands, would help him forget, be thought. Because he had friends at the university, be stopped to see them while on his way to the bay city and from him they learned of bis plans to travel and forget. To them the story did not seem so tragic for theirs was not the injured heart. They could see only the outward side, the folly of a life ruined by a love affair gone awry. So they eounciled him, urging him to regain his senses and forget the girl who was .the cause of it all. lit! list ened to them with a hurt smile, llow could they say that? It was easy to say—hard to do. The sago who inscribed with his pen, “Time heals many wounds” may have had in mind just such a ease, for after a day or so the young man began to forget. 11 is mountain of woe did not seem so high as it. had. Maybe life will give him another chance. The resiliency of youth makes it easier to forget a sorrow for the new day. Life’s that way. Old age says youth magnifies its ills, while youth declares age no longer remembers what it seems like to live with feeling. We are presenting this not as a great moral opus aimed to solve the myriad of crises that young lovers in college an* being called upon to solve yesterday, today and tomorrow, but, oidy as an inside glance at college life for people, inside or out, who think that college has no problems to be solved except those in leal’en pages of text-books. These College Romances Opportunity Unwelcomed QPPORTUNITY sat unnoticed in the grandstands in Hay ward field Saturday when the Oregon Frosh grid team battled llie Washington Babes, and that Oregon group which should have welcomed him was absent. When the Seattle trip had been definitely cancelled, and promise made that the whole unit would he sent to Portland for the University of Hawaii game, November *23, the university! band might well have pointed towards that display. Not even, as in the past, choosing a horn and fife and drum and deeming those enough for lesser local games, the band, as such, was not in the stands at all. It might have been hoped that they be there, nor have then remained in the stands. Formations, marches, and all the in tricate maneuvers which we have been led to expect might well have been practiced. Saturday brought opportunity for actual training. Too often in the past has the comment been made in comparing the university musicians that the “Oregon uniforms look snappier, but the band itself doesn’t do anything.” Two more games at home invite Opportunity to again visit the local fields, IT. C. L. A.-Oregon on Dads’ Day, and the O. S. 0. mix at Homecoming. Whether the band will grasp his forelock, or not even notice the shiny back of his retreating pate remains to he semi. It is certain that preparations for his coming have been sadly delayed, and if his welcome is off-tune and unconvincing, he may notice it more because of Saturday’s deserted house. Frosh eo-eds at the University of Pennsylvania have to carry three nickels on hand to pay fines for breaking freshmen rules. It would not cost the Oregon eo-eds much if they were fined for every frosh rule they broke. There doesn’t seem to be any here to violate. An international football game, featuring the University of Arizona and the National University ot Mexico, is being ar ranged. The game will probably do more for pence between j America and Mexico than a half dozen political parleys. A storm of marked intensity is now raging on the sun, say scientists. And here we sit, all blissfully iirnorunt. Campus Forum RAPS AT OFFICIALS To the Editor: I would like to write a few words in regard to the present Attitude of the university towards fraternities. In analyzing the| many rigid housing rules passed this fall, does it seem that the university is playing fair with the fraternities ? It seems to me that they are made the proverbial goat of the universities’ folly. In the first place, the university over-built itself with the new men's dormitory as the time had not arrived for such a large struc ture. After a year’s trial, it was found not to be a financial suc cess, and then the question arose as Lo how to make it pay. The answer is the fraternities, and steps were immediately taken to fill the dormitory at their expense with a series of drastically rigid laws which included house quotas being set under the guise of health regulations. Next, fraternity men were forced to live in their houses or the dormitory or then sever their relationship with the fra ternity temporarily if they wished to live in a private home. Is it within the universitiy’s power to ask this? The fraternities can only fill their quotas and then as their ranks thin out during the year, it is practically impossible to refill them. It is true that expenses are nearly the same for a house three-quarters full as for a full house. Shouldn’t the fraternities be given at least a chance to have their ledgers balance at the end of the year? What if there were no fra ternities ? Then the state would be called upon to build many new dormitories and think of the ex pense. When the university calls for aid or support in some campaign, who is called upon first? Again it is the fraternities. They have always shouldered the responsibil ity of seeing that the campaigns are successful. When there are high school delegates to be housed, do they go to the dormi tory? No, again it is to the fra ternities. Then nothing is said about crowded conditions. You might answer that it is only tem porary. Yes, but these week-ends are growing more numerous each year. H. F. Bobbed: Oh, dear, I've lost my little pink bow. Braided: How perfectly awful! What did he look like? —Jester. She (to fair friend): I’m not going with Harry any more. Fair friend: Why not? She: He knows too many naugh ty songs. Fair friend: Did he sing them to you? She: No, but he's always whist ling the tunes. —Exchange. “I see that Joe is up at New Haven.” "Stude?” “Constantly.” —Jester. “They say that whiskey shortens a man’s life.” “Yes, but he sees twice as much in the same length of time. —Siren. “How much do they charge out at the beach to swim?” "Twenty-five cents with a bath ing suit, fifty without.” —Virginia Reel. He: Here we are with a puncture and no jack. She: Haven't you got your check book ? —Octopus. 'Tis hard to convince a freshman who pushes a pen that a pencil has to be lead. Frosh Com mision Starts Nominations Lawrence Bay, Lee Coe, and Don Saunders were chosen as a nominating committee at the first meeting of the Y. M. C, A. Frosh Commission Friday after noon. They will submit nomina tions for officers at the next meet ing, Wednesday afternoon. Assisting in the organization of the commission were Professor Charles G. Howard of the law fac ulty, who spoke on the opportuni ties that are open for the fresh man group, and John S. Rudd, public relations secretary of the northwest council of the Y. M. C. A. Lawrence Bay, freshman class president, told the men that their first opportunity for rendering a service to the freshman class was in energetic support of the three evening assemblies which are scheduled for freshmen in the mu sic auditorium. ; LEMON Sj^fPv PIPPLES, DON’T GO VAY— TRY OUT FOR THIS WEEK’S MCDONALD THEATER TICK ETS.

In Designing Fitting Memorial In honor and recognition of the character and services of Roswell Dosch, a former instructor in the department of sculpture, at the university, a fitting memorial has been proposed and approved which will incorporate, in a modest man ner, the small bronze figure of a man breaking his bonds, the last piece of work the instructor did, now standing in the north end of the Little Art Gallery. Mr. Dosch enlisted in the World war, and in that conflict he paid the great price with his life. The memorial will be accom plished in the nature of a contest among some fifty students in the department and will be judged by them at the end of the year. The student whose suggestion and workmanship is the best and most appropriate will have the honor of having his work placed in the school patio, adjacent to the col onade. All students in the department are eligible to participate in de signing this memorial and are al lowed complete originality, so long as they incorporate the bronze figure or the idea it stands for. The work will preferably be done in Bedford stone, said Professor Bock, head of the department, who will direct the making of the | memorial. j i Special!
