^jpHE Older of the O, which set out the first of this week on
a supposedly noble, but actually high-handed plan to get
students to wear rooters’ iids for the Oregon-Oregon State game,
has backed down. 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.

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.

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.

Who is backing this move any

big display of spirit and what

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!
