Let the Women Help PICTURE—if you can—a thousand co-eds wearing lemon-yellow and green chrysanthemums swaying back and forth to the tempo of a real Oregon yell given by the men's rooting section at the Washington game in Portland and you will have the idea being worked out by the Rally committee under the leadership of Brian Mimnaugh. Oregon women have long been known for their school spirit and this year they will be given an opportunity to demon strate what they can do. The plan is to have the co-eds sit in a special section at the gumc -as they have done in the past and that they should have an organization all of their own. A committee of representative women has been appointed to handle the co-ed section and will en deavor to work out some sort, of a women’s stunt to be given be tween halves. It is an idea new t,o Oregon and it will be necessary to have the co-operation of every loyal Oregon woman. When you are asked to do your bit, show your real spirit and let's have the women do something original at the game. Now When I Was Frosh . . . 117HEN is a frosh not a frosh? A sort of evolution, we might ’ " say, from days of barbarism ten years ago to the present has led their standing on the campus to the position as in the picture we offer. Imagine after the Wednesday 10 o’clock. 1920 Big burly senior, 10-gallon headgear, baggy cords, neat little mustache, addressing meek spectacled yearling: “Cut that stuff, freshie. What’re you doing with them books? Think you can get any place in that class ? Why that prof’ll eat you alive. Come from the sticks, don’t you? Anyone could tell it by looking at your necktie. Cut that gab in classes, kiddo. We know you’re not smart. Partin’ your hair on the side, eh? High school stuff. Run home and train it straight like a real man. What? Yeah, for all that back-talk bend over!” * * 1925 Senior (you can still tell it. He's wearing cords, mus tache, and has his big hat at home) to yet innocent-looking frosh: “Hello, kid. How’d you stand the parade? I'll tell the cock-eyed world you look mighty peaked. That green paint around your gills makes you look keen. Aren't you scared of that bleary-eyed prof? He's apt to step on little guys like you. All effliography instruc tors are like that big mouth, double chin and flat feet. See you’ve been pledged to a frat. Well, they’ll take it out of you in a hurry. Our tong’s got a paddle six feet long. We’ve cracked three already this term. Watch your step, kid. Keep that lid on.” * * « 1930—Senior (well dressed, usually suit or cords, seldom a mustache) to entering student, well dressed, usually no cords, un intentionally a mustache: "Hello. By golly, a person needs a cig arette after that class. Have one ? Some prof, that man, eh ? Bunch of good women this year, too. Funny how full Condon is, haven't been able to get the book I’m after yet. It’s a darn good one, not dry like most. How many hours you carrying? About right. Can’t carry too many and become acclimated at the same time. Look for a big year this year, don’t you? Fine spirit every one’s in. Well, be seeing you.” Like the Sailors IKE the sailors of old story, with a girl in every port, University X-J freshmen after Saturday night will be expected to have a girl in every hoflse. And this wide first-year acquaintanceship will be far more possible of achievement with the changes in the Open House schedule listed on the first page today. I' Open House was instituted primarily that students might easily make wholesome contacts m the University with others than of their own sex. Necessarily freshmen were the first to be consid ered. This year for the first time they are so considered, for this year the men's dormitories, residence of new-comers, will have sep arate places on the Open House schedule. Tht long line inquired for formal introduction in previous years will be dispensed with in ordei that the hours of toe-trampling will not be lengthened. This in Itself may be an Improvement. Real names may lead to true friendships. Speaking of buying floor lamps in Alaska where there is no Juice reminds us that we must order those new awnings for the fine arts museum. Here's a tip for the jealous suitor. Turn in a phoney telephone number for your gal. The pigger's guide sometimes fails. A mat tied woman, Golda Wickham, has captured honors three times for the highest number of points in the University. Let this be a lesson to everyone. ♦ EDITORS HITHER AND YON ♦ College Bred, some cynic once said, means a four-year loaf. Alter all. . . . The Daily Californian.

Open House, it is claimed by si ruction, it is our duty to inform the freshmen on that subject which is nearest to their hearts at the present time, nothing other than OPEN HOUSE. • HAD HUMBLE BEGINNING Open house, it is claimed by those versed in campus folklore, was started back in the dim hoary past, about 12 C. P. (before Chi Psi) when a crying need was felt for four new courses in the Uni versity; those in handshaking, one to develop the endurance of the fast weakening physiques of the college students, and one in the art of polite conversation, not to mention one in campus geography. The University being too poor to provide these courses, the stu-t dents took it into their own hands and combining them all, instigat ed OPEN HOUSE. In the years which have followed the original significance has been lost and it has now become simply a substi tute for the now defunct “frosli parade.” PROCEDURE OUTLINED When you enter the Theta, Kap pa, Delta Gam, or Alpha Phi house, it is always to assume an attitude. Be sophisticated and nonchalant. Use the good old Harvard accent. [ Remember what a boring evening j it is, mention how well your na- \ \ tional rates in the East (not an intentional dig at the Phi Psis). Be sure your shirt is tucked in and that your fingernails are man icured. When you shake hands, any name will do. By the time they get through passing it down the line, you won’t be able to rec ognize it yourself. 1890 waltzes will be all the stuff. If you have gum in your mouth, park it behind your ear when entering the door. At the Chi O, Alpha Chi, Tri Delt, or Gamma Phi houses you mus.t be Joe College at any cost. Feign inebriation, shout, imitate a frog on a hot rock while danc ing, and sing to the music. When being introduced, never be formal. Kid, pal, and skirt or any similar form of salutation are not o/ily permissible but in good taste. Don't bother to park your gum but offer it to your hostess. A few hints for some of the rest ol the tongs: Admire the Gerlinger cup at the Alpha Chi shanty; the scholarship cup at the Sigma Kappas; the new A. D. Pi house; remark on the wholesome looking pledges at the Pi Phi house and praise athletic women; remember that Johnny Kitzmiller pigs Alpha Gam, and ask to see the singing cup at the Alpha O tong. MODEL CONVERSATION LISTED To prepare you for what may follow here is a probable conver sation in which you will engage: “Oh Mr. Smith—you dance so well.” “My name’s Jones—but I guess you're right.” “Oh yes, Jones—” “Yeah, Jones.” “Don’t you think these open house nights are just killing?” “Yeah—killing.” “Ha-ha. You say the raciest things, Mr. White.” “Jones. Sure I do when I’m with such a cute cut-up as you Miss Brown.” “Not Brown—Gray.” “Oh yes.” “There’s the whistle—well, good-bye, Mr. Smith.” “Jones. Good-bye—thanks tor the hop—” (Outside) “Darn it! What was that dame’s name?” Law School Has New Certificate Document Dated Oct. 1, To Be Framed The University of Oregon now l as an Approved Law School. For that matter, the law school has been officially approved by the American Bar Association since August 28, 1923, when it was rec ( mmended by the Council on Legal Education and Admission to the Bar, but it was not until October 1 of this year that the Oregon law school received its certificate of approval. The certificate is dated August 19, 1930, and is posted in the glass case on the bulletin board of the law school. It will be framed as soon as pos sible. The certificate is sent upon the receipt of satisfactory answers to a set of questionnaires, usually sent out at five-year intervals. The certificate may be withdrawn if the standards which gained it are not maintained. It limit's Scholarship (ioiiiinillcc Is Named The foreign scholarship commit tee for the Rhodes Scholarship has been announced as follows: Dr. George Rebec, chairman: Andrew Fish, S.

Per Month UNIVERSITY "CO-OP” Petzold Second In Music Contest j Ralph M. Cole of Men’s Group Fails To Place The last handful of votes count- | ed in the statewide Atwater Kent j audition which was held over ra dio station KGW last Saturday night turned the almost certain victory of Agnes Petzold, Univer sity of Oregon contestant, into an ineffective second place, and robbed her of the chance of com peting with other singers in the district competition to be held from San Francisco November 17. Winners in the state contest were Alfred Leu and Earbara Jane Thorne, both of Portland. Miss Petzold won the first choice of two of the four judges, but failed to poll enough popular votes to offset the great flood of met ropolitan ballots, which carried her opponent to an 11-point vic tory, 923 to 912. The vote of the judges, whose names were not an nounced, counted for 40 per cent, and the popular vote composed the remainder of the score. Ralph M. Coie, Eugene contest ant in the men's division, and a music major in the University, failed to place in either of the first two awards, and his exact stand ing will not be made known for several days. The singers were known only by number in the contest, their iden tity being withheld in the interest of fair judgment by the radio au dience of the state. As No. 23, Miss Petzold sang “Les Filles de Cadiz” (Delibes), and Mr. Coie, as No. 2, sang the Mendelssohn Reci tative and Aria, “Lord God of Abraham.” Miss Petzold, a graduate stu dent in the school of music, is training for an operatic career, and plans to study next year in Europa.

Sid Claypoole Walt Van Atta Lad Misses Train In Saying Adieu George Currie played good football last night on Soldier's Field in Chicago and so now it can be told how he nearly missed all chance to play. George is a Portland boy, having played for Franklin High in that city for some time, so it was only natural that there should be someone down to bid him good luck and a lot of other hooey when the team stopped off in Portland on their way east. However, there was evidently more hooey than luck, for when le train pulled out it left with it George. We have Jack Rushlow's telegraphed word that the wires began to get hot
