Father harshly termed, perhaps; it might he better to compare them to the fabulous ostrich who sticks his head in the sand and thinks his body hid. During the entire production of the local cinema, among the columns and columns of newspaper publicity received in 1he state, no attempt was made to show that the enterprise was haekt'd by a locally organized corporation, not by the student body. Faculty and students subscribed, but as they would back a series of concerts, feeling that any loss would be well-spent. It is not the duty of any student to attend the first showing here. It is probably not even necessary to attend next Friday to see it in Eugene. And now the analogy of the ostrich. The directors have hidden their heads in the sand, thinking that students will not sec that a demand for the movie will bring it wherever wanted. One cannot suppose, that the film will be destroyed. Cloaking the real backing, endeavoring to hide a too obvious fact, the ostrich leaves a vulnerable body exposed. As for the price, first nights are always choice nights, with each character presented in person on the stage. The vodvil itself will add to the attractions offered. No one can .judge the value of the showing until it has been here for the first time. There can be no true quarrel with the price. But the directors may be open about the matter. They may withdraw their heads from tin* sand and say, “We have some thing you want, something worth the price we ask. If we have an overflow, we will come back.” They would be heard. A Tribute to “Chuck” “CITTTOK” REED, Oregon’s yell king, yesterday look one of 1 lie most difficult steps for a man to make. Realizing that lie an ;i s not getting the fullest amount of enthusiasm out of the rooters, he publicly admitted his inabil ity by handing in his resignation as leader of yells. It. Avas not because “Chuck” did not work hard. There never Avas a yell king who practiced more faithfully his yells and timing. It Avas crowd psychology that defeated his best efforts. “Cluiek" did a man’s thing by taking stock in himself and by seeing his status, a thing that Avas infinitely harder to do than continue as yell king. He had the interests of the associ ated students at heart xvhen he resigned, not his own. All Italian died the other day after an exhibition fast of G5 days, said to lit' a Avorld’s record. Bet it's a grand feeling to know you've set a world's record doing that. “Students Take Aimee for Ride” Emerald headline. Is Oregon becoming the Chicago of the west!

THE ALTRUISTIC DIRECTORS To the Editor: “Some folks,” the renowned Ezra Peek once remarked, “are like the hog in the apple bin that tried to eat everything at once.” And now, for the small sum of $1.25, students of the university will be given the privilege of view ing the premier showing of “Ed's Co-ed” at the McDonald theater, 0 November 15. Displaying a fiiarked spirit of benevolence, the producers of the movie have cut the original top price for tickets from $2.50. It is the solemn duty of every loyal student of Oregon to show his appreciation of such philan thropy by attending this first and only showing and by taking all his friends. Of course some narrow-minded and pecuniary person may rise up and point out that “Ed's Co-ed” has been given column upon col umn of publicity iu the newspapers of the state because it was pro- 1 duced here as an activity. Such a person, if there is one on the campus, may also point out that the usual charge for motion pic ture entertainment is fifty cents; and that theaters which have shows which are supposedly “hits” hold them over for three or four days, so that all who wish may see them, instead of attempting to cash in with but one perform ance. But such talk, if there is such, should be immediately and thor oughly quashed. The producers of the campus movie have shown that they have the interests of the students at heart by cutting their original prices. It is our obvious duty to show our appreciation by attending en masse. Silence Dogood. MOKE ABOUT K. O. T. t\ To the Editor: Briefly analyzed. Saturday’s naive R. O. T. C. summary con tains the following elements: (. 1) that war is inevitable; (2) that the source of war lies in states- ! men’s idle prattle and scraps of ! paper; (3) that national wealth. \ granted that it exists, can be pro- | tected by armed force. The rea sons for these interesting conclu sions were not disclosed, conse quently cannot be disproved. .May I congratulate Mr. Laird upon such an impregnable mode of ar gument. The first conclusion is ridicu lous; the second ludicrous; the third sad, very sad, for upon that empty philosophy hinges the two grotesque jokes. War, like any other physical phenomenon, has definite causes. Anything that has causes will cease to exist when those causes cease to operate. I submit the following chief causes of war: (1) International disor ganization; (2) the philosophy that preparedness results in protection; (3) the philosophy that economic wealth is dependent upon political possession. In the first instance the League of Nations, the in creasing interdependence of na tions, the World Court, the pro posed United States of Europe and the increase in efficiency of communication are beyond doubt bringing world unity, diminishing one cause of war and obviating inevitability of war. That mili tary preparedness affords protec tion is disputed by the fact that Germany, France and England, ultra-militaristic, practically de pleted and temporarily lost their economic wealth and social well being. Sweden, Denmark, and Switzerland, highly productive, consequently according to the mil. i t a r i s t i c philosophy desirable, achieved greater protection through non-militarism. In a com plex society peace, not war, gives protection. Armies exist for war, consequently enhance destruction, not protection. To be misquoted is inconven ient; plane geography implies flat worlds.

Perky Campus Hats Smirked the parrot, are all the rage for the girls—espe :ially these cold winter days; and I have heard it said that the cleverest ones in town can be found at Letitia Abrams Hat Shop next to the First National Bank. A dainty enameled compact is very dear to most girls’ hearts- for not only may she repair the make-up, but she can show off her pretty compact at the same time. At Laraway's Jewelry Store there are some very smart ones, and moderately priced, too. That Magic The Sophisticated Co-ed knows that if she is going to look her best it will be be cause she goes to a beauty parlor that knows how to enhance her good looks, and the parrot says that the L. & R next to Kennel-Ellis know all the tricks of the trade. Sez Sue Shopping Column Being the confessions of the varsity green and yellow parrot who listened in on conversations here and there on the campus and felt that he had heard too many things for one small parrot to keep to himself—so he told on some of the co-eds who had whispered finds that they had discovered in the shops. Hurry! Hurry! A sale of dresses at McMor ran. and Washburne’s—the smartest in frocks for only J15, and I am willing to bet,” said the varsity parrot with a coy look, “that the girls that go to look at them will be coming back with something new for their wardrobe.” The, sale is go ing to last until Saturday, so let's go! After Study Table Hours Even the frailest of co-eds get that gnawing feeling that announces the pangs of hunger, and with her sturdi er sister she may wish for just a bite to fill her up. So the varsity parrot sug gests that you call 1379, The Green Parrot Coffee Shop, next to the Colonial Theatre, and have them deliver food. Peasant Pottery Sets Quaint yellow chocolate sets of French ware—a twenty-three piece set with octa gonal flattened plates. These and many other charming gifts may be found at the Alladin (Jift Shop a few steps west of Wil lamette on 10th. A Remembrance That Will Last Even the Parrot is thinking' of having his picture taken to give to his relatives for Christmas, and if an eaves, dropper would fall it stands to reason that the whispers must have been pretty strongly in favor of the Ro mane's Studio's work. Qual ity pictures taken at Ro mane's over Fenney's. Crisp Football Days Call for correspondingly crisp chrysanthemums — it was heard that quite a few [ co-eds were going to develop a mad at the "boy friend" if he didn't come through with a nice big yellow one for Homecoming. So the varsity parrot suggests that yop put in an order for one at the University Florist right away. Gladys Bentley won the shopping column name contest with the name of ‘Sez Sue.” What Eve Missed was the thrill of the soft touch of sheer hosiery. They are making so many new shades of hosiery and so many new clever heel styles that hose are taking on a distinctive style of their own. Buster Brown Shoe Store is showing some of the newest and smartest of hose. A Cure For Pin Fears If you have that quaking feeling every now and then that your fraternity or so rority pin is liable to slip off at any moment, why not get a Greek letter guard either with pearls or of plain gold? The University Drug Store carries a good line of guards. Foundation Answers V an Raalte underthings are just the thing to wear under that silhouette dress to give the slim lines that are so necessary to the modern miss's style. The Co-ed Dress Shop, STS Willamette, has some very dainty and pretty models in lingerie.
