The force of campus opinion has proved too strong, and at the right time the lettermen are crawfishing from their high-and-mighty stand of ordering students to don the yel low and green emblems, and are saying that it would be "a good thing” if all men on the campus Would wear the rooters’ caps. Two correspondents writing to the Emerald today on the question uppermost in the minds of hundreds of campus males suffering at the present time from a death blow delivered by Old Man Depression, say ‘‘there ain’t no justice” in the Order of the O's stand on the matter. There wasn’t- until today when the lettermen changed their attitude. The aim of the lettermen in reviving the campus tradition of wearing rooters’ lids before the big Homecoming game was a fine one, but the tactics employed by the Order of the O in carrying out its purpose were entirely wrong. Breaking into fraternity houses and forcing the lettermen therein to buy root ers’ lids, threatening mill-racings and paddlings, and going so far as to say the non-sensical thing that students would not be admitted to the game Saturday unless they wore the lids were certainly wrong methods of stirring up whole-hearted spirit over the game. Resentment and defiance were actually aroused in stead of ‘‘spirit.” Let's wear rooters' lids at the game sure, if we can afford them. It's not the wearing of the lids to which we object they make a fine display in the grandstand but the arrogant way in which the lettermen tried to order the campus to don the hats is what aroused a sense of injustice in our minds. We are glad to see the Order of the O has done an about face on its rooters' lid stand taken a few days ago. Continua tion of their plan would only have brought wider campus denun ciation for the organization and killed their purpose. Lettermen About Back After Eleven Years Tjj'LEVEN years after its organizational meeting on the Uni versity of Oregon campus, the Pacific Intercollegiate Press association again holds its annual session on this campus. 'During the intervening years since the Homecoming of 1920, when representatives of Pacific coast schools met here for a one-day conference, much progress has been made in the college newspapers of this region, resulting in no small part from the activity of the P. I. P. A. May this year's three-day program be motivation for increased betterment of college papers. The word "welcome" is worn down by such hard usage that we hesitate to say merely "we welcome you" to these visiting delegates from 12 colleges. "Welcome" has many shades of meaning, some hypocritical and some truly sincere. Oregon students are not giving a merely officious "welcome" to the P. 1. P. A. representatives on the campus this week-end. It is a "welcome” extended in the spirit that they are particu larly pleased to have the conference here again after eleven years, and in the spirit that will bring these delegates and other representatives of their institutions to the University of Oregon again.

Go ahead, smoke on the campus. The Order of the “O” is only kid ding. The Alpha Gam silo is still a popular form of wit. Refer to it as often as you like; they don’t mind. And above all, remember: It’s O. S. C. We unnastan there was a guard on the hill last night.

The Heart Bomb Of Aunt Eppie Dear Aunt Eppie: I came down to school this term with one of the famous “Eddie Pea body” haircuts. It was very allur ing but I was forced to have it cut immediately after rush week as the boys around the house were making remarks about my rela tion to a certain flower. Would you suggest that I let it grow out again, or would you leave it in the more conventional mode. Ever thine, Gyron Miffin. Darling Gyron: (you cutie) There's something about an old fashioned girl, oh—oh, I'm on the wrong track. If you have a hank ering to look like a little boy I would suggest that you leave it in the drooping Peabody style, but if you would look like a man, which I hope you are, I would suggest that you have it cut in the ordin ary manner. Hi—Ho, Aunt Eppie. I Tepid Nighty Is Sought for Head Of Band in 'PJV gHOULD any of the fair ones on this campus have a high ly artistic nightdress of the old er style which has not been prop erly appreciated, here’s her chance. One night gown, the more passionate the better, is desired for the adornment of the Uni versity drum major during the noise parade this afternoon. Since ail members of the band are to be attired in pajamas, it was thought fitting that the leader should wear a night gown. The greatest secrecy will pro tect the name of the donor should she be modest. Emery Hyde, who is to wear the gown, explained that the fair one could quietly stand on the side lines and hear the reaction to her donation. The garment is to be returned in perfect condition shortly af ter the rally with proper ex pressions of appreciation. Gilbert Addresses Civic Group Meet in Medford Dr. James H. Gilbert, dean of the college of literature, has returned from Medford where he delivered an address before the Chamber of Commerce forum Tuesday noon, discussing “Taxation in Its Three Fold Aspects.” The dean dealt with taxes on in comes, on property, and the con sumption tax. Dean Gilbert discussed argu ments for and against the general sales tax and related them to the specific program of the local realty board. He was consulted on this problem by the board and also by a special tax committee of the Medford Chamber of Commerce on matters of taxation.

To the Editor: With the big game only two days off it’s about time something was said on this matter of forcing all the fellows to buy rooter’s lids to wear at Saturday’s scrimmage. Who is backing this move any way—the Order of the O? If so, their idea is probably to make a big display of spirit and what have-you at the game. All well and good!

Saturday BEARD’S er's caps will look great—make a big display—pep up the whole af fair. Great stuff! But here’s the catch: The lids aren’t being given away with five cent purchases. I hope to tell you they aren’t. They are displayed in every store window at a tidy lit tle sum that can’t even arouse the ghost of a jingle in some of the student’s empty coin purses. One dollar is a lot of money to some of us right now. One dollar would go a long way in aiding this unem ployed we hear so much about, (but don't see because we’re here in school). But only a very few of those same dollars are all that are keeping many of us in the Uni versity. But the Order of the O still de mands the wearing of the caps and the merchants still joyfully dis play them at $1 apiece. There ain't no justice! B'God! Signed: 1 J. B. G. R..
