Phone, Manager: Office, Local 214; residence, 2800. Congrats ! DMIRING and enthusiastic plaudits go to the members of the senior class who were just elected as the “Senior Six" of Phi Beta Kappa. Probably almost everyone who has attended the University has had a secret admiration and not a little awe for the student who is elected to Phi Beta Kappa. The only exceptions to this might be those who aspire for the “gentleman’s grade.” Suffice it to say that Phi Beta Kappa represents the top and goal of academic performance and is most tangible, though perhaps not the most practical, result of conscientious effort and real interest in the pursuit of knowledge. In making elections to Phi Beta Kappa there is always the difficulty of determining whether the student who gets his super lative grades by being a grind should be preferred over one whose grades, though perhaps slightly lower, has shown un abil ity to maintain a high standard and at the same time develop different sides of his personality: Phi Beta Kappa is showing an increasing tendency, through its elections on this campus in the past few years at least, to acknowledge the effort of the grind, but, more important, to recognize the student who has made a definite advance towards his education. We congratulate the “Senior Six.” Among the many significant statements made by the late Thomas A. Edison was: “The more mental apparatus is worked, the longer will the normal person live. Retiring from an active mental life is a dangerous thing.” One fears for the longevity of college students if Mr. Edison was right. Students are paid to attend the universities in Russia, but only those in sympathy with the government are granted the privilege. OREGON SAFETY VALVE __ An Outlet for Campus Steam -- Bill AN DEPENDED According to yesterday's Emer ald, “A man who is in a position to know” happened to “volunteer” some information in regard to an example of the spoils system as in operation in campus politics, and as a result of his “volunteering,” a fiery editorial appeared, bring ing no great amount of condem nation upon the present student government. First of all, I would like to say that I received this year’s Dad’s day appointment from Brian Mim naugh, A. S. U. O. president, and should like everyone to know that it was not through a political promise, nor did I expect such an appointment. 1 should also like the students to know that in his instructions to me on committee appointments it is shown without a doubt that Mimnaugh is not only striving for clean politics, but that he actually is opposed to the spoils system. His instructions were: 1. To appoint people of proven ability. 2. Appoint those people who would put the event over in the biggest and best way. 3. Not to be influenced by po litical factions. On this last, he emphasized the point that he wanted good work ers regardless of campus political affiliations. Mimnaugh also point ed out that the showing on this occasion was dependent on great effort and he wanted good work ers regardless of what orgamza tion.3 they were members. I am bringing all this out to correct any mistaken opinions any student may have formed as a re sult of the information “volun teered" by this “man who was in a position to know.” I am “in a position to know” that Brian Mim naugli is above the cheap insinua tions hurled by certain editorials. Mimnaugh is a credit to our Uni versity. He is worthy of all the respect students can give. In closing 1 may say of the Mathews case that the president may bo responsible for the actions of his appointees, but to have him re sponsible for their personal rec ord.' is giving him additional duties which ought to be vested in a spe cial agent not unlike “Czar” But ler of the Pacific Coast conference. KEN JETTE Sociology Group Honors Two \\ it It Membership Initiation of two new members was held by Alpha Kappa Delta, sociology honorary, at the home of Dr. P. A. Parsons, dean of the school of sociology, yesterday eve ning. Clare Maertens and Margaret Kerns are the new members of tbe honorary.

Mueller, associate professor of sociology, spoke on his observations of Rus sia on his recent trip in that coun try. LEMON ♦ ♦ PALOOKA OH, GERALDINE! ARE THE SEAMS IN MY STOCKINGS ON STRAIGHT?

Questionnaire Filled in By All But Three Grads Information on Last June Class Now Almost Complete , All but three of the seniors and graduate students who received degrees from the University last June have filed their question naires in the Alumni office, it is reported by Vera Powers, recorder in the Alumni office.

"Responses have come flocking into the alumni office from stu dents who read the request for the addresses in the Emerald and in Old Oregon,” said Miss Powers. “Ask a result, five are found and now only three of the entire class of 559 students are lost.” Those who are still missing are: Frances H.

WE STRAIGHTEN ’EM • COLD BEE p LINE Aligning Station 233 East Broadway Across from Eugene Hotel BOOKS OF THE DAY EDITED BY ROY SHEEDY I - A FRENCH NOVELTY The Other One: By Colette. Cosmopolitan Book Corporation. It seems as simple as a drink of water—Colette’s style. And the plot is nothing extraordinary — the usual triangle of husband, wife, and secretary. Analysis of the book would probably show that there is nothing in it which has not been said before. The merit of this story lies in the way Colette says things. She is an expert in nuances. Knowing perfectly well that her plot is an old one, she puts out her tongue and says "What of it? I bet I can make it sound like a swell new one.” Whereupon she sticks plot into the background and writes a book that is as full of good lines as an impromptu pastel sketch by somebody that knows how to do it. It is a series of moods, that shift naturally into each other. Each mood adds another stroke to the delicate sketches of the char acters — Fanny, the wife; Big Farou, her playwright husband; and Jane, the ash-blond secretary; not to forget the strange tawny figure of Little Farou, the hus band’s illegitimate son, 16, and in love with Jane. The events are seen through the mind of Fanny. It is the mind of a lazy, thoroughly domesticated, “one-man” woman, at peace with everybody around her, friendly to everybody; and the story is the story of her struggle to remain at peace, after she finds out her husband’s affair with Jane. Col ette tells what she wants to tell by catching Fanny’s brain-pic tures, and the fleeting impressions made on her by such things as the smell of hot pavement, a breeze, a bell, trivial things which yet influence a mood. And through these pictures darts Fan ny’s wit, spasmodic and searching; the wit of a woman who is cursed with a sense of humor that makes her laugh at herself. With extreme subtlety Colette manages to indicate that her readers, being persons of dis crimination, will be able to under stand the things she has not both ered to tell about her characters. Drive Away ... on the long, narrow fairways and become golf conscious.
