. Fair Play With Oregana?
f I 'HE belligerent attitude of the finance committee and the
executive council toward the Oregana popped up again last
week when the former group adopted a provision stating “That,
unless the Oregana be out by April 15 and the copies for campus
distribution be out by May 1, the profits shall not be distrib
uted to members of the Oregana staff.” Junior week-end, the
traditional distributing time, comes May 10. Which means,
that some unfortunate circumstance arising the last, minute
when the yearbook is on the press may deprive the editor and
manager from any remuneration for their labors during the
year.
While there is probably little danger of the book being un
able to appear May 1, it is the attitude of the committees which
irks. The resolution was made in the form of a permanent
motion by the executive council on May 1 of last spring term.
It might prove embarrassing for the council if the book
should happen to be late this year as they would have to recall
tlu* money now being advanced to Lester McDonald, editor, for
his work. McDonald, being one of tin* myriad students who is
working his way through school, insisted that the advances be
agreed upon before he consented to become editor this lull.
The point has been reached in the economic scheme of
things where the salaries paid the editor and manager are piti
fully inadequate in proportion to the time they are forced to
put in to make the book a successful one. Last year the book,
by skillful management, paid profits into the student body
funds. In the neighborhood of $200.was all the money that
went to the heads of the hook for their year’s work.
Two things are necessary if the Oregana is going to be able
to get competent men and women to take the jobs:
1 The executive council and finance committee must play
fair with them by consulting with them before taking any
drastic steps regarding the policies of the Oregana.
2. The salary must be put on a more stable basis and at
least some remuneration must be assured. The present system
of paying the editor and manager a cut out ot tlu1 protits, if
any (and there arc usually none), must be junked!
A Possible Development
T NOTRE DAME UNIVERSITY this year then* are no less
than 900 men engaged in playing football, according to an
interview with Knute Rockne published in the current number
of the American magazine. In addition to the several score
men that make up his regular working squad, Rockne lias
organized class football, and intramural football among the
various dormitories and organizations of the campus. As many
of the intramural games as possible are played, so that the men
who are not able to make the varsity squad will obtain a maxi
mum of gridiron experience.
"We can see no reason why the system in effect at Notre
Dame would not be feasible at the University of Oregon. Of
course it would probably strain the resources of most any of
the campus fraternities or halls to support a football team, but
it would be possible to have the organizations paired, say by
lottery, and allow each two to support a football team to play
for the championship of the university. Then the sophomore,
junior, and senior classes could each organize a team, with the
champion class team, perhaps, meeting the champion intra
mural team.
The inauguration of such a system at the University of
Oregon would do much toward the development of football
here. There are undoubtedly many players with excellent pos
sibilities who become discouraged and drop out of competition
when they fail to make the freshmen or varsity teams. Under
the proposed plan they would be given an opportunity for con
tinning to play and develop their possibilities, as well as to
enjoy themselves in a field where competition isn’t excessively
strong. It is entirely probable that many players developed
through class and intramural football would become valuable
recruits to the varsity squad during their latter years on the
campus.

NAME FOR MEN’S 1H)KM
Editor of the Emerald:
I want to thank the Emerald for
{suggesting that the New Dormi
tory be named in my honor, but
I want to suggest the names of
two others whose memory should
be perpetuated first.
The three men who gave nearly
•‘their all" were Hon. Thomas G.
Hendricks, Judge Joshua J. Wal
ton, and Hon. Ben Dorris, former
regents of the university. These
men spent day after day, weeks
and months, going over the coun
ty raising money with which to
pay the laborers on Deady hall.
They went out and begged a cow
from some farmer, leading it to
the butcher or asked for some of
their grain stored in the local
warehouse. And not only this,
they almost impoverished them
selves in giving their own money.
Had it not been for these men,
there would probably be no uni
versity in Eugene.
We have ‘'Hendricks Hall,” and
the new Dormitory could be di
vided into North Hall and South
Hall and named "Walton Hall"
and “Dorri3 Hall,” two worthy
names in the annuls of Lane coun
ty. I think I shall recommend
that this be done to the Board of
Regents at their next meeting, if
President Hall will consent.
If I can live in the hearts and
memory of “my boys and girls"
of the last fifty-two years, then
when the last one shall have
joined me on the other side, I shall
be willing that my name on this
side be forgotten.
Gratefully yours.

Jane White (Spinster)
Statement of Facts
This comprises an action for
damages. The plaintiff charges
that on or about September 1 he
delivered his heart and all appur
tenances thereto, unincumbered, to
the defendant and that she stood
as bailee, receiving candy, flow
ers, etc.

The fact that the plaintiff is
suffering in manner outlined is
duly attested by the familiar
symptoms of loss of appetite, fall
ing off in weight, hollow eyes, etc.,
etc. The lone remedy to be the
payment prayed for on the doc
trine that similia similibus curan
tur (Blackstone 112).
Therefore the plaintiff prays
that the solution to this evil be
consummated and that the neces
sary legal and religious steps be
