The green rooters’ edition of the Emerald, conceived by Managing Editor Shaw, was rushed to com pletion two hours ahead of time Friday night and was off the press at 2:30 a. m., ready to be loaded aboard a Seattle-bound train at 3 o'clock. Shaw, working in cooperation with Day Editor Sterling Green and other loyal staff members, had all copy for the paper out of the copy-room at 9:45 p. m., except for the principal stories on pre game “dope,” which were coming by wire from the Emerald’s sports staff in Seattle. As they came in, Shaw and Green rewrote them, added headlines and fed them to the linotype machines a piece at a time. Howard Petit, student pressman, rose to the emergency, and shortly after 2 o’clock the green Emer alds were rolling off the press— ready for the history-making dash j to the stadium in Seattle. The campus edition, printed on the conventional white paper, was likewise off the press in the fastest time made so far this year. Student Travels to Europe Via Ship, Train, and Bicycle I - Tom Jones Experiences Variety of Weather On Journey Like Tom Jones of Henry Field ing's famous English novel, Tom Jones at Oregon is also a wan derer. Stormy weather off the Mexican coast, thick fog for five days on the broad Atlantic, bicycle riding in Holland, and sipping Rhenish wine at Cologne, all went into making an interesting summer for Tom Jones, freshman in business administration. He left Portland on July 19, sail ing down the Pacific coast, through the Panama canal to Liverpool on the “Damsterdyk" of the Holland American line. He and his companions were taken on a drive through Wales by a Cambridge professor. Before leaving Great Britain, Jones wit nessed the changing of the guards at Windsor castle and dined at the “Cheshire Cheese,’’ famous for be ing frequented by Dr. Johnson and Boswell of English literary fame. On the continent, The Hague in Holland was made headquarters for his party. Seven years before, The Hague had been Jones’ home town. Railroad trains, automobiles, and bicycles all served as trans portation on his visits to Rotter dam, Leyden, Amsterdam, Brus sells, Ostend, Louvain, Cologne, and the Rhineland. Even the tiny Grand Duchy of Luxemburg did not escape his notice. They then returned to London, where Jones spent a whole day asking questions in the Bank of Scotland. He wants to be a banker some day (that’s why he is study ing business administration at Ore gon), so he thought he ought to get a little advance light on the British financial conditions. •The party rented a car to drive the length and breadth of merrie England. The roads were excellent throughout the island, he said. In Canterbury he stayed at a hotel built in 1043; in York he visited a castle which had been converted i into a college, and in Peterborough j *-—_ he visited a castle which had beei converted into a prison. They drove on through Scotland and at a little place called Crai gellchie, they stayed at a hotel con ducted by people who former!} lived in Fortland, Oregon. They traveled through Scotland and then turned south again tc Wales. Here they visited Shews bury, which had once been the cen ter of the Welsh wool industry. Ir olden times, he was told, the sheep owners were not paid for theii product until it was woven into cloth. It was then measured off, by rolling it around a barrel, each time around counting as one yard. This went on for some time before the wool growers discovered that at each turn of the barrel, the buy ers gained some cloth. Since this discovery, no raw wool has been taken to Shewsbury. They boarded the White Star lin er, Laurentic, at Liverpool, crossed the Atlantic, and sailed down the St. Lawrence river to Montreal. From their to Oregon, they trav eled by rail, arriving in Portland on September 23. Seattle Rings With Band Serenades And U. of O. Music Spirit Prevails From Early Saturday Until Game Classic Begins University of Oregon spirit pre vailed in Seattle from the time the 75-piece pep band came off the train early Saturday morning ready for its Work of advertising Oregon and the football classic un til game time.

Rhodes Aspirants Decision To Eliminate 8 From Campus Trials Is Difficult | Wallace Campbell, sociology ma jor, George Harrington, history, Frank Lombard, economics, and D a v id Williams, mathematics, were selected to represent the Uni versity in the state examination for the Rhodes scholarship at Port land in December. The 12 candidates for the local contest were all juniors, but, ac cording to the committee, they were one of the best groups in sev eral years, and the final decision was difficult to make. The examination itself is said to aid the men in determining what an education really implies. Knowl edge of their special lines and gen eral interests as well as moral and physical fitness was searchingly regarded. “Men who failed the first and second times have come up again," Dr. George Rebec says, testifying to- the fact that the effect of the examination is not lost on anyone, “and, what is of more interest to the committee, they have shown astpnishin^ progress in ideals and conceptions as scholars and men of culture.” All Big Sisters To Meet Today To Make Plans Committee Works With U. of O. Personnel All Active Members Asked To Re in 105 Journalism At 4:30 P. M. A meeting of every active Big Sister on the campus will be held today at 4:30 in 105 Journalism building to review the progress of the Big Sister movement and make definite plans for the immediate future, according to Betty Anne Macduff, chairman of the group. “This year’s program represents a considerable expansion in the field of freshman personnel activ ity,” Miss Macduff said, “and every effort is being made to help the new student on the campus ad just herself to the social, scholas tic, and extra-curricular activities of the University.” Forty-Six on Committee In the spring 46 upperclass1 women were chosen on the basis of their capacity for responsible, sincere work. During the sum mer the Big Sisters communicated with the freshman women under their supervision and arranged to meet them on the campus regis tration week.

Groups Ask Reinstatement In Open House One Other May Join at Last Minute Alpha Upsilon, Beta Phi Alpha Change Votes; Betas May Follow With two campus living organi zations reversing their previous un favorable decisions on Open House and with another fraternity likely to join in the social affair at the last minute, the schedule for the annual “bunion derby,” to be held Saturday night, will be drawn this afternoon. Compiling the schedule of hous es, halls, and independent groups participating in Open House will be Janice Hedges, president of heads of houses, Willis Duniway, Emerald editor, and Mrs. Hazel Prutsman Schwering, dean of wo men. Votes Are Revised Beta Fhi Alpha and Alpha Upsi lon, who had gone on record last week as being against Open House, appealed to the dean of women's office yesterday for reinstatement on the schedule. Beta Theta Pi may take part with the rest of the cam pus because of the 50-50 vote polled in the house on the question last week, Con Hammond, president, said last night. With these three organizations asking to be included, Sigma Alpha Epsilon is the only fraternity on the campus holding to its original decision against Open House. The vote of the house stood 31 to 12 against participation, a report from Paul Bale, president, showed, and no reversal of this action is likely, according to Bale. Committee Gives View l "No loss of social prestige will come to S. A. E. by non-participa tion in Open House,” a statement from the student committee ap pointed last week to investigate the event, said last night. “It was the committee’s decision that only those organizations voting for Open House would be scheduled to attend, and there was to be no compulsion in the matter. Independent women and inde pendent men will have places on the Open House schedule if their representatives will make arrange ments with the dean of women’s office before 3 o’clock this after noon, it was announced. The complete schedule will be released tomorrow morning. Discussion, Devotional Feature Y.M.C.A. Party Group of 14 Spend Week-End At Blue River Four faculty members and ten students made up a Y. M.
