Right Idea, Prexy \ S a result of Thursday’s election, there is a man at the head of the student government for the ensuing year who has definitely declared himself on a question that has been the sub ject for some controversy and the cause of no little ill feeling between student leaders for the past years the question of the relationship of the executive council to the Emerald. Previous to the election, the Emerald asked the two presi dential candidates the following question: What should be the relation of the executive council towards the Emerald? Em ployer, advisor, censor, owner, or distinct from it? In answer, the successful candidate expressed the opinion that the Emerald "should be distinct and independent” from the executive council. Some student presidents in the past have even gone so far as to contend that the Emerald as a student newspaper should uphold all decisions of the student committees, for these com mittees are composed of students duly chosen by popular elec tion and representative of student opinion. These men held that by criticizing the administration the Emerald was failing to give the proper co-operation. The contention of the Emerald has been that intelligent crit icism of the student leaders will lead to sounder student admin istration. It has believed that failure to criticize what it con siders unwarranted actions of the council or the president is not only poor journalism but a betrayal of the best interests of the students. Next year the editor of the Emerald can begin his work with a feeling of freedom unknown to the men preceding him at the helm of the student newspaper. Unhampered by the fear of interference from the A. S. U. O. president, he may work intelli gently for the advancement of student interests. With discre tion he may criticize with enthusiasm he may praise—the offi cial acts of the student heads. The Emerald has never felt that it should be subordinate to, or in any way influenced by, the executive council. It wishes to express appreciation to the newly chosen president for his stand on the matter. It is a stand that reflects a deep understanding of the situation that merits our praise and the praise of future Emerald editors. College Forum - A Relief \ FEW energetic young journalists at Stanford university v joined hands t lie other day to publish a magazine which would have been called the “Stanford Forum," had not the presi dent of the university set ids jaw, slammed down his fist, and snapped out his decision "No!'' Just how such a good live wire magazine as those boys are publishing could besmirk that <*> precious Stanford name, we do not know. L - Well: anyway, the book was issued under the name of “Col •./> • ' • v <s: • * • ; . lege Forum.” And it is a dandy sparkling, light, and extremely readable. 11 is?a credit to tjie colleges of the Pacific coast, and let us thunk the Stanford university president for lending his influence in making it a general magazine rather than restrict ing it to a single campus or stunting its popularity by becoming a university organ of propaganda. Editor Gunnar Norberg has the right idea. His aim in pub lishing the magazine is to give student writers, who are edged out in the competitive fields of established periodicals, a chance to present their wares. College Forum "makes it definitely its policy to have as contributors entirely, so far as possible col lege students.” As evidenced by his first issue, he aims to have the publication sell for it is flashy, attractive, anti neat even though the stories included may not be wholly sound. It is exceedingly refreshing to see a few young writers come right out with the dope on subjects Uiey believe they know more about than do a gang of breybeards who make their approaches quietly yet philosophically sound. It takes students to tell whether or not college educates. Well. Davie G. Lyon, of tire University of'California, writes a “criticism of criticism” in his story on "Does College Educate?" And Sum (Somebody) says, "To Hell with Examination! Let’s Learn Something.” Each of these boys has hit upon a good subject for any dis cussion. They’ve started something and they’re starting it right, and our wish is that it will continue. A story written by a member of the Oregon Daily Emerald staff is to appear in an issue of the College Forum in the near future. It was certainly splendid of so many students to exorcise tlieir individuality and split their tickets at Thursday’s election. “There' always a first time.” said the Order ul the O men as they : the head of one student after another in the cam pun fountain. Yea, and occasionally there is a second. ************ * Well, now that elections are * * over and we’ve settled down * * to buying our own cigars, we * * can fail back into the old rut * * of tritirg to please (copyright * * secured according to law). * * Which reminds us, have you * * seen this year’s Oregana, * * which reminds us that al- * * though our picture was no * * great shucks, it at least had a * * silver lining. (Referring to the * * cover, of course.) Which is a * * poor thing to inflict upon you, * * but then the paper must go to * * press. * ************ EPITAPH Gone from our midst Is Joseph Mike Hess; Says he: “Your picture Was a perfect likeness.” * * * But just wait until we catch the bird who coyly dropped borax chips into our soup at lunchtime, and then when we began to foam at the mouth and sputter, came up with the old remark: “Suds is j life.” I We haven’t any advance dope on the canoe fete yet, except that Queen Eleanor, the first, is to ride down the race in a comet. The only reason we have been able to discover for selecting this particu lar type of royal equipage is that if the water accidently got rough, it would be necessary to calm it. * :!« * Aw please, we realize that the only ones around here that can pull puns like that and get people to laugh at them are professors in their classes, but be charitable and give us a break. And now, speaking of College rackets, we might suggest that some person whose parents aren’t down for the week-end might col lect a little extra pocket money by taxing the fraternity brothers who have parents here so much per head by going around and con fidentially whispering in the par ents’ ears how much their off - spring is studying and how badly he is in need of a new suit or a canoe, perhaps, to aid him in his astronomy course. * * * Which of course is nothing more or less than a suggestion. * # * We haven’t been able to dis cover, on the spur of the moment precisely what the motif for the junior prom is to be tonight, but we’re hoping and praying that it i isn’t going to be a spring garden, because after the sixth dance that way it gets monotonous. * * * And also today, come to think about it, is the historic day on which the frosh are to burn their green lids. The frosh haven’t any thing to cry about. All they have to worry about or do, is to burn their caps. All the rest of the binning, in its various forms will doubtless be attended to by the sophs and order of the “O.” At last we believe we've found the prize glutton for punishment. What’s this we hear about a cer tain young man who drives a Chrysler roadster and who is also the editor of a college newspaper getting ducked in the fountain yesterday for chatting with a cer tain co-ed and then, while the scars of the fray were still drip ping from him, being tossed in again for the same offense ? I'm a streamer, aren't we, Hall ? HUSKIES TAKE HIT-FEST GAME BY SCORE OF 8-6 (Continued from Patte One) the third with two runs of their own on three successive hits. Mimnaugh’s fine catch near the right field wall saved further scoring in that session. In the next inning the Huskies tied the count on three more hits. Bloom’s ability to make Anshutz and Hutchinson pop up easy flies kept more Huskies away from the pl^te.

A med ley of hits, walks, and errors gave Washington three runs in the sixth. Double Play Features The Webfoots tried hard in the seventh, succeeding in chasing Putnam to the showers, but their spurt fell one short of tying the score. Stevens, Mimnaugh and Barnes banged out singles before a man was retired, the Duck short stop scoring. Vern Arnett then poked the ball squarely into the hands of Nelson, Husky keystone guardian, who pegged to Heaman, who relayed to Sullivan at first for a double killing. Londahl and Shaneman started the hitting all over again with two more singles, putting Mimnaugh across. Coach Tub Graves yanked Putnam and sent in Arthur, who checked the rally without wasting any time. The lean Mr. Arthur subdued the Ducks thereafter. The second tilt of the two-game series will start at 2:30 this after noon. Ken Scales, tall Webfoot right-hander, will try his luck against the heavy artillery of the Washington line-up.

Howard, professor of law, refused to let such a little thing as a car wreck deter him in the least from his purpose, accord ing to his own version of the epi sode. Professor Howard, in company with two law students, Howard Greene and C. S. Shimanek, were bound for Indian creek on the Ma pleton highway last Sunday when Professor Howard's car, in which they were riding, skidded off the highway, dropped over a 15-foot embankment, and came to rest in the creek bed below, after rolling about 35 feet. As neither of the three men were injured they crawled out of the car windows and hitch-hiked to Rain Rock, the nearest town, secured help in get ting the car out and continued on their way, leaving the auto !h a garage for repairs. After sleeping in the open Sun day night they succeeded in mak ing a catch of S6 fine trout Monday and returned to Rain Rock. /Announcing The Latest Waltz-Ballad “LOVES GOLDEN DREAM” Words and Music by Babe Peunybacker Lee.
