No Discrimination?
THE executive council last night, assumed responsibility, exercised
its right as supreme body of the associated students and deal!
out punishment to three members of the student body for what they
believed to be a violation of a gentleman's agreement. Rally leaders
and the managing editor of the Emerald were placed on activities
probation for inciting a student demonstration which disrupted classes
Friday morning before a football game.
Wisely enough the executive council is fulfilling its duties in
handling aftairs which fall directly under its jurisdiction. An ex
tremely difficult problem to deal with, a problem which has grown
tremendously in importance in the eyes of the council with furthered
deliberation, but which is appraised less seriously by the University
students, has been solved and marked down in the records of the
associated students as history. The three students may not, during
winter term, render assistance to the student body.
A violation of confidence lias given the executive council suf
ficient grounds to inflict the punishment upon two of the rally leaders,
although this decision is antagonistic to the more lenient policy sug
gested recently by the Emerald. If, as reported, the yell king and
the rally chairman agreed with the student relations committee in
a meeting only the night before that classes would not be disturbed
on that Friday morning, we waive our suggestion.
The case of the managing editor of the Emerald strikes us as
different. Here action, it seems, should have been confined to disci
pline within the organization of the publication itself. Instead he
has been lifted by kite strings and deposited in a limbo of probation
beyond reach of Emerald officials. He was uot present at the meeting
when the pledge, later violated, was given; his duties prohibited his
attendance, and he had no knowledge that any such promise had
been made. Reports printed by him seemed official they came from
the rally heads. An unintentionally provocative heading written on
the rally announcement constitutes his offense yet lie suffers pven
more than those for whose action there seems less excuse. Should
there be no discrimination between a wrong committed intentioftally
and one so unintentional?
After The Battle, Mother- -
NOW that the home football season is over and student body tickets
are no longer to be regarded as the basic currency of campus
exchange, we can look at them in a new light.
After the battle come the bouquets, and we wish to commend
and congratulate the graduate manager's staff upon the excellence
of the associated students' concert series it has just announced for
this year. All holders ol student tickets can look forward to attend
ing without charge five concerts of a type which would attract much
attention in the musical capitals of the world.
Maier and Pattison are undisputed masters of the two-piano field;
Florence Austral, soprano, and Nathan Milstein, violinist, are at the
very top of their respective fields. The Portland Symphony orchestra
always attracts a large student audience, and the students are scarcely
less appreciative of the unusually fine work of the University Bym
jJhony orchestra and the University Glee clubs.
Several years ago the student body voted to add the sum of
seventy-five cents to the term fees to finance an annual concert
series. This is a bright page in the history of the associated students,
and it is to be regretted that more students do not take advantage
of their earned opportunity to attend the concerts.
But the series for this year can hardly fail to attract capacity
crowds to McArthur court. It is far and away the best that has
ever been scheduled. Congratulations and thanks, graduate manager
and assistants.

After Arthur Arlett, once deposed editor of the Daily Californian,
agreed to run r statement daily that his opinions were not repre
sentative of the U. C. executive committee, he was reinstated. That
wasn't a concession; it was a privilege.
With Other Editors
J“lU(iV FI NUKUS
So-called student body "leaders”
fit the Univei sity of Califoniia,
quaking for fear that the recent
editorial campaign of The Daily
Californian concerning the uthleti'
situation 1 here might be construed
as authorized by them have seen
lit to place a censorship on the
Californian.
Although The Daily hr. been
content to watch the recent
charges ami counter-charges be
tween California and University of
Southern California only as an in
terested spectator, this pitiful at
tempt to muzzle the student press
comes as an admittance that 1’res
ident Stern Altshuler and his Cali
fornia executive committee mem
bers are purely politicians endeav
oring to further their own end
and not those of the students of j
University of California.
The Daily, it must be remem
bered, does not take a stand one
way or the other on the recent
controversy aroused by editorials
printed in The Californian.
The issue at stake is the censor
ship of the press. Editor Arthur
Arlett, who is to be commended
for saying what he had to say in
spite of opposition, had a perfect
right to print what he believed to
be legitimate editorial opinion.
Cense-’ ! ip of the student press
would result in such feeble jour
nalistic efforts that it would be
needless to call universities as ex
ponents of liberal and free thought.
The Daily condemns the action
of the California executive com
mittee and hopes the censorship
will be removed as hastily as it
was applied. The Stanford Daily.

DYNAMITE
By T. N. TAYLOR
COLUMBUS, Ohio, Nov. 23.— j
(Special) Who ever started the ■
idea; “out in the West where men
are men,” was all wet, according
to T. D. Kelley, senior editor ,»f
the Cornell Daily Sun, who was
surprised to hear that in western
schools women are given equal
chance with the men in campus
politics, publications, and other
activities.
* * *
’“Women don’t have any stand
ing on our campus,” Kelley smil
ed. “We figure that Cornell was
originally a man’s school and
should he a man’s school, there
fore, we don’t want women and
refuse to let them have any part
in campus activities. They don’t
rate at all with any of the fra
ternities on the campus.”
* * #
As Cornell the student body
never gathers as a group for social
functions, Kelley said. Each fra
ternity has a house party every
term to which women are invited
from other colleges and nearby
towns, but rarely any of the local
co-eds. These house parties last
an entire week-end, the men giv
ing up their house to the women
guests.
The entertainment runs night
and day, Kelley said, “and “by
the time a house party breaks
up you’re about as badly bent in
more than one way.” Dances at
a house party are usually sched
uled for 11 p. m. to 4 a. m., but
on most occasions they last all :
night, according to the Cornell
daily editor.
“The Oregon Daily Emerald is
a nice little sheet,” Kelley said. I
read almost every issue and cer- ^
tainly get bang out of the features. '
Wish our paper could use more of 1
that light stuff.”
The Cornell Daily Sun, although
run by the Cornell chapter of Sig- ■
nta Delta Chi and members of the
student body, is the local town |
daily. Profits from the paper are
divided by the editorial staff. The
editor's salary for the year runs
between $1,500 and $2,500, the Cor
r.ellian student states.
* * *
The size of the Cornell daily
varies from C to 18 pages. A
news service is used extensively
to fill the paper. “In fact we
use it too much,” Kelley admit
ted. Reporters have no definite
heats, each reporter is simply
limited by the extent of his
imagination. “It does mean con
siderable duplication,” the editor
agreed, hut it’s good training in
that it makes a reporter hustle
if he intends to keep on the
staff.” The year is divided into
periods of six weeks and a con
test runs for each period. The
winner is promoted to the upper
news staff, or “pay” end of the
paper, and the contest goes
ruthlessly on. To win a place on
the upper news staff means plen
ty of hard work, Kelley said.
* * *
Kelley was interested in the fact
that Oregon students can attend
the University for a whole year on
$900 or less. ‘‘It costs me about
$3,000 a year. I managed to get by
on $2,200 one year, but it was a
terrible strain,” the Cornell stu
dent said. Fees at Cornell run be
tween $400 and $500. “But then,
Cornell is well known throughout
the country, whereas few people
have ever heard of the University
of Oregon; no insult intended, but
just an excuse for our high fees.”

INN i Kt t t IONN ON BEHAVIOR
WHILE VI’ HOME
In order to keep up with the
hots and girls from Oregon Mote
who will be back in the borne town
tor the Thanksgiving holidays, it
is absolutely imperative that every
sludeul do his or iter level best
to tie collegiate to the extreme.
One of the duet requisites is
dress. The proper garb should
consist of a rooter’s lid, a yellow
slicker with a two-foot green "O'’
or duck on the back of it, one
slightly used pipe, a stock of col
legiate phrases, and a swagger
which consists of hunching the
shoulders and dragging the feet.
Greet all the boys with a big
slap on the back, and then break
into a University yell.
* * *
BE DEMOCRATIC—Take out
all the high school sheik’s girls,
just to show that you’re still the
same old guy. Tell them all about
school and then kid them on being
young, just to show that you have
not lost your sense of humor.
# * *
BE HELPFUL Tell them what
is wrong with their dress. Quietly
correct them bv telling them what
we do up here at the U. Criti
cize their little mannerisms, just
to show them that they are rather
nonsensical. They will appreciate
it. Walk into the local business
men and proffer them suggestions
on how to run their business, ac

cording to new ideas that you have

why the town doesn’t progress and
tell them what a dead hole it is.
This is to incite them to improve
conditions. They may resent this
at first, of course, but they will
later thank you for it.
BE EDUCATIONAL—Toll them
all about the life in the Univer
sity, the glories of your fraternity,
and all the bids you turned down.
Uazx the high school for not put
ting out the football teams they
had when you were a student. La
ment the fact that all the good
people that ever went to high
school have graduated. This will
spur them to greater things.
These rules for behavior, if fol
lowed with unction, will increase
any college student's popularity in
his old home town manifold and
will conclusively prove to . them
that we aren’t the heels that they
imagine.

STOP BAWLING
To the Editor:
To the student basketball play
ers who continue to address com
munications to the Emerald which
they end with the defiant tone: !
“How about it, Washke?” let us !
say that in spite of the good they
may be attempting to do, the fact
still remains that the task they
impose on the director of the men’s
gym is well nigh impossible.
The great difficulty that the
gym faces is lack of space. Let us
remind the correspondents of that,
j And what can be done to relieve
' the cramped conditions of the
! men’s gym unless a new building
be erected on the campus. With
that possibility far off in the fu
ture it appears to us as if the com
munications were merely wasting i
their efforts on a cause which is
granted to be a worthy one but
futile. i
Since a new gym can not be built
at this time to aid Mr. Washke’s
program of gym classes and in
struction there is only one sensible
thing to do—stop bawling about
balls and take up* some other gym
activity. The physical education
school still offers swimming, hand
ball, track, golf, soccer, and other
specialties. If basketball is not
available in the desired quantity
and cannot be increased, let’s stop
discussing the matter.—W. D.

Fifteen Skeletons
Unearthed Near
Town of Gold Hill
An ancient Indian burial ground
lying across the Rogue from the
straggling lfttle town of Gold Hill,
Oregon, has been the scene of sev
eral recent excavations by Dr. L.
S. Cressman, professor of sociol
ogy. The work is being done as a
part of general research in Ore
gon archaeology.
About 15 skeletons have been
found in varying stages of preser
vation. The moist sand in which
the burials have been made has
caused almost complete decompo
sition in the majority of the bur
ials. These excavations have un
earthed eight obsidian knives vary
ing from six to thirteen inches in
length. Two were buried with
each corpse. This means that some
corpses were buried with- no ac
companying knives, Dr. Cressman
states. Knives and pipes had been
previously unearthed by the for
mer owner of the field in which
the mound lies.
“There is no way at present to
fix even the approximate date of
the burials, but the complete ab
sence of any signs of the white
man’s culture indicates that the
people from whom these dead have
come occupied the land long be
