College Didn’t Change Him
HE’S one guy college didn’t change. He still talks in that over
bearing tone and persists in using the same old expressions.
He dresses no better his hair still falls to his nose. Even his saxo
phone playing hasn't improved. In fact, he’s the same old boy who
used to play dirty basketball on his high school team.
Why hasn’t it made a man of him ? Why hasn’t he fallen in
the footsteps of his teammates, learned to be polite, meet people
well, and dress correctly? Just because because he failed to listen
to the advice of others. He knew it all—no one could teach him.
Yes, it made him mad when someone ordered him about. He broke
his pledge. No other house would take him—then. Strangely, too,
he was kind at heart, but something was there—-no one knew what
—that kept him from being milled.
Thousands have taken their hacks, realized they knew little,
and learned to stay within the ropes. They have graduated as men
and women, with a feeling of atonement, looking back over the days
of their progress. They maintain a feeling of pride—if they were
good then, they are better now.
But the lad we speak of he has missed it. His fault, some,
but others are to blame. Primarily, his initial associates in the Uni
versity were insufficiently interested in moulding his future. Per
haps he was just another man—considered “not so hot’’ at that.
He needed personal attention from one who could touch upon the
kinder and more human strings of his heart. But he didn't get it.
He needed more than the brutal poundings of the fraternity paddle.
But he didn't get it. He lacked the comradeship of one who could
carve men.
Now for the unlucky boy himself. He had many faults, but
only one matters. HE NE1EDED NO ADVICE. It is ruining his
collegiate career, and perhaps his whole life unless, before the dis
ease has become too deep-rooted, he listens.
A bit of advice we offer: 1. Consider the ideas of others.
2. Tactfully share with others your own knowledge.
Knees and Cosmetic Mart
A T LAST comes a gleam of light in the prevailing economic
gloom which our business experts of the Dean Inge school as
sure is to throw the sun of good old Coolidge prosperity into a semi
permanent eclipse.
Spokesmen of one of America's greatest industries, the manu
facture of cosmetics, have just broken forth in trade journals with
the cheering news that the sales of their products showed a sizeable
increase during the past year.
And with the same gesture they reach across a hypothetical
conference table and give the hand of fellowship to the czars of
style. For they ascribe the cause of their increased affluence to a
belief that 1930 styles in women’s dresses have swelled the sales of
lipstick, cold-cream, eye-lash tonic, mud packs, and cheek kalso
mine.
The gist of the thing is that since skirt hem-lines have been
sold short by the bears and dropped a good six points beneath knee
par, men pay more attention to feminine facial topography, with
the result that the dear ladles are plastering more and more goo
and gumbo on the area which bears the strain of this withering
scrutiny.
It looks like a good thing for everyone concerned. Textile man
ufacturers are happily engaged In turning out 20 per cent more
fabric to make the same number of frocks; cosmetic companies will
declare extra dividends once a month; the raising of the average
man’s optical objective to higher fields is of undoubted aesthetic
value; and the plastic surgeons will undoubtedly make up for the
loss of operations on bow-legs by inventing some ingenious method
of transferring dimples intact from knees to cheeks.
A Great Rally, Folks
'T'HE editor’s pen was prepared to pan the student body. It was
primed to tell them exactly what a fine brooding bunch of
chicks they were. But it’s off now. It was the greatest rally we
have seen in years over 2000 strong.
Overjoyed at winning the first really great Intersectional game
the associated students showed their appreciation, and we congrat
ulate them. We are glad they forgot that meek, gentle, and poorly
represented rally at the station when the team entrained for Sol
dier's Field. We hope Doc and his men forgot it, too. Evidently
they did or perhaps they were determined to show that SLUG
GISH MOB at home that they could fight. They could fight. The
students now realize it, turned out in lull force yesterday, and an
nounced their support and appreciation.
No doubt about it. it was a stupendous rally. Other schools
can envy that figure over 2000. The yell king did wonderful work,
the student body president made an extraordinary enthusiastic
speech. But where were the football men ? Where were the words
from Oregon's new and most successful coach, Doc Spears? Our
only criticism is that they did not loom sufficiently in the fore
ground to repay the students for their whole-hearted attendance.
The men were tired hungry, too, perhaps. Yet we couldn't help
wanting to see them. ” °
If the junior class meeting last night was any smaller than
some we have previously seen, the nominations would certainly have
to come from the floor.
We read that authorities in psychology are going to study the
flapper and her boy friend. They should have started in four years j
ago. It’s been a long time since we have seen a flapper.
Headlines in the Emerald say "Holiday Chosen as First Attrac
tion of the Season.’’ Never could we disagree with such a state
ment.
Secret meetings, plotting groups, and gruff words make us be
lieve that soon we shall have to burv the old and hire a new and
less daring Wet foot editor.

-THE WETFOOT
“ALL THE NEWS THAT’S FOOT TO PRINT”
WELL, GIRLS, HERE YOU
ARE. ACCORDING TO OUR
PROMISE MADE YESTERDAY,
WE HERE HAVE THE REAL
STRAIGHT DOPE ON YOU AS
VIEWED BY A REPRESENTA
TIVE MALE ON THE CAMPUS.
ALPHA PHI—A lot of pledges,
but—Oh, well, we had a nice time,
anyway.
ALPHA CHI The principal fea
tures were the Gerlinger cup
(loaned for the occasion by Bess
Templeton) and the new and much
more comfortable furniture in the
den. Oh, yes, and then there'3 the
new radio.
ALPHA GAM Remembered this
house because of lump sugar on
tea service from which everyone
helped himself. “Don't you think
our pledges are marvelous?” etc.
Would suggest that they enlarge
floor space.
ALPHA O Another tong with
the marvelous pledge complex.
Homey atmosphere. The daven
ports were much appreciated by
the overworked males.
CHI DELTA—They introduced
a new wrinkle in the evening’s
entertainment by providing chairs
on the porch. This backfired,
however, as the attraction was so
great, most of the boys stayed out
there.
A. D. PI—Of course there was
the new house and all the girls
were awfully nice about taking
you out and showing you the new
back yard and grape arbor. Most
of the visitors were easily per
suaded to look at the yard.
CHI OMEGA—Very enthusiastic
about their pledges. "The sweet
est and dearest bunch of girl3—
and so intelligent and refined,
too.” Well, maybe so. Harriett
Kibbee giving everyone the big,
glad, well-soaped hand.
DELTA GAM—When we first
entered the portals, we looked up
at the ceiling to see what the at
Social pre5t.c_
traction was. However, we de
cided that the girls were merely
exhibiting their profiles. “Have
you seen our new pledge from
Texas?”
DELTA ZETA—The new house
is nicely arranged. At least they
didn’t din the praises of their
pledges in our ears continually.
GAMMA PHI — Carmined and
dressed up to the usual standard.
Wanted to show off the new
pledges, so they insisted on mak
ing us pass down the line. Con
ceited, we’d call it.
KAPPA Made enough racket
for a young boiler factory. Some
of the pledges had really nice
voices. A few of the alums were
brought back to bolster up the
pulchritude of the line.
KAPPA DELT The music was
very good. Yes, the K. D.’s (just
like a prominent fraternity we
know of) are good in the East.
J
ALPHA XI DELT —Just a
bunch of jolly girls, having the
grandest time — unsophisticated
but natural.
PI PHI—Phonograph was out of
order this year so they hired a
piano player. Bea Milligan was
back giving all the weary men a
big smile, a slap on the hack, and
a booming invitation to come back
again.
PHI MU—We couldn’t get a
dance. Too many Sig Eps stick
ing around. Oh, well, we were get
ting tired about then anyway.
THETA OMEGA — Not many
boys went there. They thought
the Friendly hall announcement
must be wrong. Lots of room to
ratrace.
THETA—The total poundage on
the hoof was a bit smaller this
year. The pledges were really cor
dial, but they’ll learn better after
they've been there a year.
TRI-DELT it really seems that
the girls might have been a bit
more hospitable after the boys
had gone to the trouble to walk
clear up there. Unless a bus serv
ice is instituted the men may go
on strike next year and omit them.
ZETA TAU ALPHA—The girls
painted their house this year in
order to keep step with the A. D.
Pis. For additional information
see Alpha Xi Delta.
HENDRICKS AND SUSAN
CAMPBELL HALLS—Thousands
of women standing around. On
the whole improved over last year.

IN FIRM A K V TACTK S
To the Editor;
We wish to comment briefly on
a few of the tactics which we have
observed as to the practices of
the infirmary personnel.
About two weeks ago a student
who was afflicted with a very bad
cough and cold requested admis
j sion to the infirmary at about 7
I p. m... so that he might have an I
opportunity to receive treatment
before getting worse. He was in-;
formed that admission could not i
be granted. It so happens that
this individual developed a severe;
case of tiie grippe and lias not yet
completely recuperated.
Another man, a basketball let
terman of last year, who is to
commence practice in about two
weeks, applied for admission to the
infirmary due to the fact that he !
had contracted a severe cold. He I
phoned the infirmary in the first!
instance and requested admission, |
and the nurse in charge informed
him that he could not enter with
out a doctor’s order. At that hour
there were no doctors in the dis
pensary or the infirmary. Not
withstanding the refusal, the indi
vidual went down to the infirmary,
inasmuch as his condition became
worse, ami begged admission. The
nurse in charge, after taking his
temperature and pulse, said, “Well,
I guess you can come in.”
It is quite unfortunate that the
student-body of the University of j
Oregon cannot receive the medical i
care from the infirmary for which
it is paying. It might be pre-.
sumed that the administration of j
the infirmary would grant a stu
dent a bit of courtesy and cooper- |
ation instead of disinterest and ac
cepting the patient as cluttering
up space. ,

Again at Denver there was a good
turnout at the station. As we had
eight hours in Denver, we were
quartered at the Denver Athletic
club. From there Jeff Cravath, all
American center at U. S. C. in 1928
and now coach of the Denver uni
versity team, took us in cars to
the new stadium. “Doc” put the
boys through a pretty stiff work
out.
Tommy Williams described Den
ver as a very beautiful city, clean
and orderly, and the university as ,
equally pleasing in its effect.
The team also stopped at Omaha
before arriving in Chicago.
But expenses seemed still to be
on Tommy's mind, for his conver
sation quickly led back to figures.
"Well, anyway,” he sighed, as if
he'd just finished one of those big
meals en route, "we broke even on
expenses for the Drake game, and
the trip was a big success in every
way.”

Scholarships To Be Awarded
Foreign Pupils for Good Will
Peace Plan Provides 1000
Students With Money
To Study in U. S.
Of interest to all members of the
faculty and student body of the
University of Oregon, is the new
plan for international peace and
good will proposed by Emerson P.
Schmidt, formerly of the history
department of the University of
Oregon, and Philip George Neser
uis, who was a member of the Ore
gon summer session faculty from
New Hampshire.
The peace plan provides for a
fund of $1,500,000 to be created
from the war debts due the United
States. The general fund is to be
divided into 1,000 scholarships of
$1500 each. These will be distrib
uted to foreign students who have
achieved high scholastic records in
order that they may study in
American universities. The distri
bution among the 27 countries of
Europe will be made on a strictly
population basis.
Mr. Schmidt and Mr. Neseruis
believe that since the year 1920,
the United States has lost favor
with the European countries strug
gling to pay war debts to this
country.
The international good will pol
icy is attracting a great deal of
interest in diplomatic circles in the
United States, and the originators
have written outlining their plan
to President Hoover, Senator Bo
rah, chairman of the foreign re
lations committee of the senate,
and to Senator McNary. The New
York Nation promises to discuss
the policy in a future issue.
“OREGON? THAT’S OUT
NEAR CAL,” IS REPLY
(Continued from Page One)
there were hundreds of restau
rants featuring foods prepared
"like mother used to make it in
the old country.” Some of these
dishes were just courses by anoth
er name but some were sources of
keenest enjoyment. A Hindu
drink is made from the juice of an
Indian bean was possessed of the
most delicate flavor and provided
the highest sensual pleasure.
"Now don’t misunderstand me,”
his eyes twinkled. “All my stay
wasn't devoted to chasing around
while Jim and Jack studied—I
went to hear all the concerts I
could—heard all the music, saw
all the plays I could and let me
tell you this." He was suddenly
serious, "no radio or record doss
justice to the New York symphon
ic orchestra nor any road show to
the Broadway productions.”
From New York to the nation’s
capital—
"The Congressional library would
delight some of the profs on the
campus—plenty of references for
required reading. It is really the
most impressive thing there—aside
from all the Hoover commissions
running around the streets."
Home again some nine weeks
later—
"Was I glad to get back ? I don’t
know—Would I do it again if I
got a chance?—’betcher neck.”
