O. rpHE first of the series of five concerts to be presented in "*■ McArthur court this winter under the auspices of the Asso ciated Students will occur tonight. Guy Maier and Lee Pattison, internationally eminent as masters of two-piano music, are the artists of the evening. In view of the $10,000 grant recently awarded our University for the study of the place of mu“ic and the arts in a liberal education, the reaction of the student body to these profes sional concerts which they may attend is peculiarly significant. The research to be made into musical education under this grant will center about the question of whether musical appreciation can be developed in a student by academic education and whether appreciation of music so acquired can favorably affect the in tellectual keenness and cultural understanding of the student in other fields of life. , Whatever the answer to these questions may he, the main appeal of fine music to the student still lies in the pure enjoy ment, sensual and aesthetic, whicn he may derive from the hear ing of it. The richest life is the one which has opened the most avenues for the reception of pleasure, and he whose mind is closed, eiiher by disinterest, unfamiliarity, or prejudice against the enjoyment of the finest music has made his life more meager than it might otherwise be. To those who do not study ihe theory of music, the best way of learning to enjoy it is to lake advantage of every oppor tunity to hear it. The A. S. U. O. concerts, which offer every student a chance to hear some of the greatest musicians of the age without paying the almost prohibitive admission price which ordinarily is associated with their concerts, provide an opportunity that should not be overlooked. More About Rallies T TNTIL the greatness of the university is no longer measured by the power of its football team students will play rah rah, gallop down streets, and cheer for victory. It seems that the Wisconsin Daily Cardinal might possibly be one of the leaders in this direction when they point disap provingly at schools who literally push their football teams over the goal lines by rally stampedes. The Oregon State Barometer quite logically answers for the present situation, but perhaps does not fully account for the University of Wisconsin’s tendency. We speak of rallies as demonstrations of the intense backing anil support which is given to the coach and his men. Such displays of spirit bring home with ringing clarity the fact that ' students want them to win. This point cannot be questioned. It would be hard to picture a victory for a tekm of men who had lott a campus drab and listless. We can't imagine a win ning football team whose coach spends the half intermission eating a hot dog. An immense amount of interest in football is being nationally shown. No one can tell exactly how long the public will support it maybe ten years maybe more. As Jong as it holds the place it does among educational institutions, schools will rally, money will be spent, and preppers will hold a subconscious favor for the one with the strongest team. The Daily Nebraskan comments on the controversy between the Oregon State Barometer and the Daily Cardinal and asserts, somewhat to our approval, that rallies are intensely juvenile. Yet, show us a flock of grown-ups that doesn't like to hey-hey Occasionally. Nevertheless, this student fun will herald a stronger univer sity or college until the athletic grip has released the great public. Hitting at their university through the "campus cop," the Daily mini has objected to the action of the officer when he stopped an innocent little game of touch football which was progressing on one Sunday morning. Tennis and golf are per mitted, state.1 the Illini, but the paper asks why there should be discrimination against touch football. We, too, believe the "cop" enjoyed the assertion of his authority and scattered the would-be grid stars to see them run. ♦ EDITORS WITHER AND YON ♦ Ih.MlVl.M, SMOKING 1’Kli TWO in cigarette sales to women. .1 \1KWS suppose it is because men have We may look for the return of tired of masculine women," ho the hoop-skirt, swooning and other says. ladylike behavior, according to the Hurrah!

"Wome i smoke because it gives them confidence. By puffing at a cigarette they can cover any amount of nervousness,” says a noted psychologist in accounting for the former increase in cigar ette sales. We immediately picture a world filled with women, hundreds of them, puffing away for dear life in order to seem calm—in other words — be nonchalant, light a Murad. The panacea for every thing is the cigarette. Now that we have these two extreme views on the cigarette question the controversy is settled. We may either cease puffing and win the undying approval of the men or puff and become known as the perfect women—never at a loss, always nonchalant. — The Daily Ulini. Students Teaching Over Holidays Must Tell Dean Those students who are practice teaching during the first part of the Christmas holidays, are asked to make arrangements with the dean of women as to a place to stay, it was announced from the office of the dean yesterday. The city schools do not close un til December 23, so practice teach ers will have to stay over until that time. As most of the living organizations will be closed, they will have to make special arrange ments for housing. CAMPUS ♦ ALENDAR OREGANA SCHEDULE (All group pictures at east en trance of Condon hall.)

SATURDAY CLASSES FAILURE, IS BELIEF (Contvniiea from Page One) cause a class on Saturday morning disrupts the whole day. The orig inal aim was to relieve the stress an buildings and I believe that they have partially accomplished their aim. but on the whole my attitude is one of disfavor toward them,” he concluded. Saturday classes have been elim inated in the department of biol ogy, according to Dr. Harry B. Yo com, professor of zoology, because they conflict too much with other things. "The big football games on Sat urday in Portland take away a number of students, and Home coming and and similar events ac count for about three Saturday classes a term, or about one-third of them. For that reason we have eliminated them." Not all of the faculty believe in the failure of Saturday classes. An drew Fish, associate professor of history, is of the opinion that they are succeeding. He stated that he believes that they achieve their aim and are a good thing, but did not comment on the Caswell sur vey. Sooner or Later This weather gels the hot ter of your shoos.
