One Fr’a Penny ! By Guilt in FABLE THE FIRST -is that sorry tong. They have the most homely women on the campus and a white elephant of a house secured in the first place by conventionally sinful means; kept only by dint of ex orbitant house bills. Two blondes they have—two blondes only which will pass the critical eyes of the stag-line. Only two. One of these is flip pant and chronically unfaithful; I the other has an unpronounce able name, a humped nose and a sad propensity for orange— a color which suits her com plexion badly. Upon closer ex amination I find that her nose is rather of the roller-coaster variety—the exact antithesis of the humped type. That mis take was due, no doubt, to my subconscious dislike for humped noses... (My own is.) There fore I hooked up this woman with that kind of features. “Where’s that damn waitress?’’i one of them shrills. (Misuse of ! the word “damn,’’ showing faulty ! understanding of this really ad- j mirable adjective. Rather it should be stated; “Where in hell’s [ the waitress,” or “damn that wait ress.” The use of the word in her case is solely a gesture. It is not an integral part of her vocabu lary. ) And they also have the little wench who, unable to trick men into making dates tactfully, as it should, of course, be done, making her dates by the beauti fully simple method of asking for them . . . Says she: “Gee, I'd like to go to the Alpha Alpha pledge dance!” Answers one of my disdainful, but surprised friends: “Well, I'd like to go to the - pledge dance, too, but I’m not!” Ordinary women they seem and ordinary women they prove to be, and anyone knows that an ordinary woman is low—yea —even lower than an ordinary man, and Lord know’s that’s quite entirely low. Women seemingly ordinary who turn out to be the opposite are rarae avi . . . beautiful women who are also of good intelleect exist only in the wish-fulfillment myth and are to be studiously avoided if, perchance, met up with, for there lies Hell . . . verily there lies Hell . . . But you're quite safe from this last type at the --house. However, avoid them for other reasons, for there lies utter bore dom, if not perdition. “Why don’t men want their : wives at lodge?" “Oh. a man likes to feel import ant once in a while.” Socict gj Phyllis Van Kimmell, Editor ‘Last of Mrs. Cheyney’ To Be Presented at Heilig Wednesday Social activities on the campus are considerably slack now that the entertainment for the high school delegates of last week's conference is over. The main event of mid-week, which will be of interest to all those who care for really good dramatic perform ances, is the performance at the j Heilig theatre of “The Last of Mrs. Cheyney.’’ This play prom ises polish and a technique far surpassing the usual run of ama teur productions. * * Hatch-Howell Announcement has been made of the marriage of Miss Patricia Hatch to Mr. Charles G.

COUGARS BEAT ORANGEMEN By Bill Simmons, Sports Editor, Oregon State Barometer Oregon State College, Corvallis, Jan. 13. (Special to Emerald)— Washington State college over whelmed Oregon State by a score of 40-27 in a slow and uninterest ing game in the Men's gymnasium here tonight. The visiting Cou gars led the local team 201G at the end of the half, and in the second period they collected 20 more points to 11 for Oregon State. McCarney of Washington State was the high point man of the fray with 17 counters, and llol sten, also of Washington, was in second place with 14. Grayson was the high point man for Ore gon State with 7 points. The vis iting team markedly augmented its score by converting 12 out of 14 free throws allowed. Army and Navy football negotia tors fail to reach an agreement for a resumption of games. A slight variation of the old elephant and whale difficulty. “Prohibition is not a question,” they tell us, “it is an answer.” Yes, but there seems to be some question about the answer. — Selected.

University Band Presents First Concert of Year More Music and Less Noise Than Formerly Is Crowd’s Comment I The loudly blaring pep band of the University of Oregon is gone. In its place is an organization of genuine musical spirit, somewhat unfinished yet in its. playing, but . rich with promise. This was shown Sunday after noon at the music auditorium, when the band appeared in its first concert under the direction j of John H. Stehn, new to the Uni versity this year. Suppe's “Poet and Peasant Overture" was given a remarkably finished interpretation, with strong climactic passages, and nicely shaded slower movements. The! rest of the program, selections popular to band concerts, was played with vigor and color. Wil liam B. Sievers played the trum pet solos, “The World is Waiting for the Sunrise,'' by Seitz, and "Kisa Me Again,” from Herbert's “Mile. Modiste." The program was given under the auspices of the Associated Students of the University and is in line with a genereal effort on the part of the administration to widen music interest on the cam pus. John Stark Evans, dean of the school of music, speaking at inter mission, told the audience that all concert and vesper services at the music building will begin at 4 o’clock beginning next Sunday. The program was heard by an audience ‘-that nearly filled the building. Enthusiastic approval of the work done by Mr. Stehn with the band was voiced by members of the audience. Mr. Stehn, a graduate of Grin nell college taught in the mathe matics department at the Univer sity of Oklahoma before coming here. Dr. Dean J. Lansbury, clean of the school of music, had this to say: “We used to hear it said that •The devil lived in the choir loft’ and it has been my unhappy ex perience that bands were the war department of music, but happily 1 we a.re out of the woods. Under the splendid leadership of Mr. Stehn I can look forward with genuine confidence to a band of which wc will all be proud. With out in any way detracting from our interest in glee club, poly phonic choir or orchestra, let's boost the band.” What’s all this row about col lege athletes getting reduced tui tion in large universities?

Pipes save no midnight oil IF PIPES made the man, anybody at all could rise in the world just by smoking a few pounds of Edge* worth. But pipes do not make the man. Men make the pipe—most men do. Somewhat depends on the individual, more on the pipe, and the tobacco is most important of all. Things must be congenial. Edgeworth is a congenial tobacco; cool, slow-burning, fully flavored. Edgeworth has poise, kindly good nature, real tobacco personality —■ Edgeworth welcomes new friends. Many a good man has been pledged to pipes by Edgeworth alone. Like to meet Edgeworth? Just ask with the coupon—and the postman will bring your first few pipefuls of the genuine, three years seasoned if it’s a day. Our treat, if you please. Others have found Edgeworth and quit their discontent. So may it be with you! EDGEWORTH Edgeworth is a careful blend of good tobaccos — selected especially for pipe-smoking.
