As Gentlemen Would
WITH the Oregon football team on a fighting edge for the tradi
tional football game against Oregon State at Corvallis this
afternoon, nearly three thousand loyal Oregon .students will journey
to the home of the state agricultural college to witness the battle.
It will be a gala time, as it always is, when the elevens take the
field for their crucial tussle and much work has been done by the
student leaders of the neighboring schools to insure the success of
the occasion. This year's game will mark the dawn of a new era
of football games between the two institutions that the school at
which the game is played shall serve as hosts to the students from
the other school.
Oregon students should respond to the courtesies offered while
in Corvallis today remember we are the guests of the students of
the Oregon State Agricultural college. The spirit taken by the Cor
vallis school is exemplified in a statement taken from an editorial ap
pearing in the Barometer yesterday:
“We must not forget that our student body officers have assured
those of the University of Oregon that every Webfoot will be shown
genuine Oregon State hospitality this week-end. We feel sure that
no true Beaver will disregard his leader’s promise by treating any
Oregon student otherwise." That's the spirit shown by Oregon State.
Let us accept this invitation to rC end the game as guests of the
rival student body in the proper fashion let it not be said that we
acted in a manner unbecoming to Oregon students.
In Eyes of the World
TUB! selection of the University of Oregon as the recipient of a
$10,000 grant by the Carnegie corporation for research in the
fields of fine art is one of the most significant events in the recent
history of the institution. It. is a strikingly concrete recognition of
Oregon’s reputation as a school where the arts have not been dis
placed from a place of importance by courses in business administra
tion, home economics, and so forth.
Under the presidency of Dr. Arnold Bennea Hall, the University
has gained greatly in national prestige a prestige based not on hoary
tradition or venerable history, but on a forward-looking spirit which
expresses itself in progress, research, and an ever-widening circle of
service to the people of the state.
But let us be frank and admit that Oregon is known throughout
the country more because of two or three of its schools than through
the University as a whole. The school of music ami the school of
architecture and allied arts are recognized as among the best in the
country, and the school of journalism ranks hut little lower in its
field.
The Carnegie grant will be used to investigate methods of distrib
uting the benefits of the excellent instruction in music and other arts
offered here to a greater proportion of the student body. The creation
and appreciation of art are dependent upon each other, and if it were
necessary for a university to decide in which field its greatest respon
sibility lay, the edge should be given to the development of apprecia
tion.
A New Service Group
AT A recent suggestion made by the Emerald, supported by reports
throughout the campus, the recommendation of the student rela
tions committee was passed upon quite wisely yesterday evening by
the executive council to disband the Oregon Knight organization.
Quite reasonably comes the question of what should take its place.
The Emerald suggested the possibility of a service honorary which
would be more active, work more efficiently, and maintain a position
of prestige on the campus among the underclasses. Such an organi
zation could be built up quite effectively to act to a high point of
efficiency in student affairs of the University of Oregon.
First, membership of this group should he composed of men who
have shown their ability and willingness of work for the betterment
of the institution as a whole. Members ought to be men who are
adequately interested in school activities and who command respect
among their classmates. Flection to membership would necessarily
come from within the service honorary itself.
As a second important factor in the success of the group, we
suggest an effective means of testing members of the freshman class
in the desirable requirements For work to be done by ttie organiza
lion during the football season and early basketball those who have
been qiembers during I be past year and are then sophomores should
direct aspiring freshmen, watch the calibre of their work, and gauge
their interest in school affairs until time for election. This election
of approximately fifteen men ought' to be held near the first of winter
term at some such function as the Frosh Glee. The choice of mem
bership should be made an impressive ceremony Another election
might be held later in the spring to choose those freshmen who have
since the first election proven their eligibility to The'honoraiy.
Merely submitting a rough proposal of plans for the .newiorgaui
zation, we do not attempt to compose a fool-proof set of rules. How
ever, it is believed that some such service honorary would fulfil the
needs more than adequately.
One thing left untouched a problem which may hamper the insti
tution of tlie new group is the manner in which the initial member
ship should be determined. Here is a solution. The sophomore class
should hold a meeting for the purpose of nominating 24 men as candi
dates for charter-membership. A subsequent election among the mem
bers of this class should be held to choose only 12 from this group
to be the founders of a successful underclass service honorary.
Verily, we see visions of an actively successful, honored, and inter
ested group of men organized primarily for the progress of the associ
ated students.

halfback, and Joslin, plunging full

To the Editor:
That sophisticated member of
the English debating team, B. J.
Crehan, is undoubtedly chuckling
over more things than one, having
scored twice on his genial host,
the University of Oregon. Not
only did he take a shot at the
“culture of the Oregon woman,”
but he succeeded in having one of
the oldest and stalest of Limey
jokes given front page space in
our worthy Emerald, and, by the
bye, receiving personal credit for
his humor. I forget whether the
time-honored crack, “What are i
Keats?” was first uttered by
Chaucer or Caesar, but Mr. Crehan
amiably takes (and more amusing
yet, is given) the credit for fhe j
humor. Oh, oh, Emerald! Why
not read “Punch” (July, 1893,
issue) ?

Who says the Emerald has no

after the students had read in the
Emerald that they were on the
warpath this morning, they began
doing their level best to prove that
the Emerald didn’t lie. Such being
the case some of the professors
have pooled their resources and
are ready to bribe Emerald offic

Emergency Loan Fund Low;
Fall Term Demands Heavy
One of the greatest needs of the
University of Oregon at the pres
;nt time 's a larger revolving
emergency fund to supply students
with small sums of money for a
short period, a report of the Uni
versity loan fund just released
from the dean of men’s office dis
closes.
This fund, which totals $500, is
Lhe most popular fund among stu
ients, since loans not exceeding
$25 are given out for one month,
with no charge except 25 cents
for service. Through the courtesy
of Ben Selling, of Portland, the
necessary amount for such a fund
was made available to the Uni
versity in 1929. There were 107
users of the emergency fund or
practically one-half the total num
ber of loans from all the funds.
Demands on this fund have been
so heavy this fall that the sum
is nearly exhausted. However, the
whole amount will be restored by
the beginning of winter term,
when the loans now out will be
repaid.
The rest of the funds owned by
the University are held in trust
by the president, comptroller, and
dean of men, and total about
$37,000. The most recent addition
was the $5,000 bequest by the late
Joseph N. Teal, Portland attorney.
In addition to those appropria
tions created by individuals inter
ested in the University, by various
graduating classes, and the Wom
en’s League, some of the wealthy
Portland and Eugene business men
invite University loan authorities
to arrange loans directly to the
worthy students.
The regular interest rate of 6
per cent is charged those who
make use of the student loan, and
a maximum time of two years is
given the borrower to repay the
amount. The only security neces
sary to obtain a loan is the sig
nature of two responsible citizens.
Requirements necessary for an
individual to be eligible for bene
fits of the funds consist in an in
terview with either the dean of
men or dean of women, who con
sider the personal qualities of the
student. Applications are then
made through the loan committee,
which is composed of Dean Karl
W. Onthank, who represents Pres
ident Arnold Bennett Hall; Paul
Ager, comptroller; Mrs. Alice B.
Macauff, assistant dean of women,
and Hugh L. Biggs, dean of men.
From January 1, 1930, to the
present time a total of 165 stu
dents have made use of the loan
fund. Of this number 54 were
women, who have borrowed $5,720,
and 111 were men, who have taken
out $18,957.
The average loan for women is
$105.92, while the men's is slightly
higher, being $110.27.
The balance on hand at the time
the report was released was $10,
753.87. This amount probably will
be exhausted before the end of
the school year, according to Dean
Biggs.
Variety of Topics
For Term Papers
In Lewis’ Class
Creameries and the ballads of
i Francois Villon, pre-medics and
j the evolution and use of shoes, bot
I tling soft drinks and the manufac
: ture of coal tar dyes, economics
and how to run a rowboat, the
cheese business in Tillamook and
Henry VIII and his wives are the
j varieties of topics originated for
{ term papers by the members of
! Frofessor L. L. Lewis’s report
I writing class.
This rather wide range of sub
ject matter is due to the fact that
Professor Lewis is having his class
write two term papers, one on a
subject with which they are famil
iar and the other on a subject that
will require some research work.
