Money Matters and the Movie
f I ''HE directors of the Campus Movie are indirectly compared
to gluttonous porcine apple-hind wallers in today’s letter to
the editor, for charging $1.25 for the combined vodvil acts and
movie next Friday nigld. 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.

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.

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.

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.

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

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.
