A Coast Championship Looms
Tfc^OLESKINS and helmets have been put away; Hayward
field is quiet; the locker rooms at the Igloo no longer re
sound to the shouts of the gridsters. King Football has abdi
cated, and in his place Basketball, crown prince of athletic sports,
prepares to reign.
When Oregon closed its 1931 football season Thanksgiving
day, six Webfoot warriors were in uniform for the last time.
Captain Irv Schulz, who led a great team through what sports
writers delighted to call a ‘‘suicide schedule” and made an out
standing record at it; Eric Forsta, Ed Moeller, Choppie Parke,
Jack Erdley, and Henry Heyden—stalwarts all. Wc wish their
last gridiron performance for Oregon could have been on the
home field, so proper tribute could have been paid them.
Looking back over the season, we cannot find praises enough
for the Webfoots, Coach Doc Spears, Trainer Bill Hayward, and
Bill Reinhart, Gene Shields, anil Jack O’Brien, other key men
of the coaching staff. Oregon this year had team spirit—a vital
izing force it has sometimes lacked in the past. That explained
the fight, the determination, and success in a season when the
Webfoots, a sophomore team, were thought doomed to he medi
ocre.
With fine material coming up from this year’s freshman
team, mark our prediction—in two or three years Doc Spears
will have a coast championship for Oregon.
WITH OTHER EDITORS
A MORAL QUESTION
A startling bit of news comes
from two universities on the coast
in the fact that at Oregon State
college due to the efforts of Presi
dent Kerr and at U. S. C. as a re
sult of efforts by the board of
trustees, the daily papers on these
two campuses are not permitted
to run cigarette advertising. The
reasons given are moral ones,
where any reason is given at all.
Students are permitted to read
cigarette advertisements on bill
boards, in magazines, and practi
cally every other place but in the
student paper. A trifle absurd, but
nevertheless carried out at two of
our major universities.
Cigarette advertising is a large
item in every college newspaper.
In most it means the difference
between profit and loss. These two
papers are running heavy losses
each year and because of a stand
taken by administrative officials.
There might have been some
reason for such an attitude twen
ty or thirty years ago, but in 1931
it is somewhat behind the times.
Smoking as a moral question went
out with petticoats and the tandem
1 bicycle. California Daily Bruin.
Mr. Average Man Thinks
Well, it looks as though colleg
iate (semi-pro) football had got
through another season without
serious damage. Those who see
clearly the moral effect of the sys
tem are making last efforts to pre
sent the situation to the public be
fore football goes out of the public
mind till next fall.
Radio minister and philosopher,
Ernest Whitesmith, of Eugene,
suggests that the lethal minded
gangsters and bootleggers of the
nation be utilized as football play
ers. This would serve the dual pur
pose of giving the gangsters some
thing less important to fight about
and of allowing the colleges their
cut into the public's purse, he says.

Is there anything two people
can say to each other this week
besides “dija have a good vaca
tion" or “harye” or maybe a semi
intelligent "sure cold, isn't it?"'.’
There's nothing more unsatisfac
tory than to stand and exchange
such utter banalities with u fellow
student.
College students seem to have
acquired the habit of being afraid
to talk for fear of being ridiculed.
New and different ideas from those
taught in fraternity bull sessions
are frowned upon. Let’s have a
revival of intelligence. The lower
animals have brains enough to
learn things by role and repetition.

Oregon’s Pacific Basin debate
team has received wide attention
for its utterancej in Australia.
New Zealand, and the orient. Ra
dios broadcast and newspapers
play up their most casual utter
ances,
Which all goes to show the re
gard in which the United States is
held by the rest of the world, espec
ially the regions included in the
tour. What a responsibility this
country is facing as the most pow
erful, anil richest nation in the
world!
The average man wonders if
there isn't something to this non
partisan policy of the United
States. As long as we remain out
of the league (European dictated)
and refuse to recognize Russia
neit her Europe nor Asia dares of
fend us.

Well, here we are going into the
last two weeks of study before fin
al examinations. It’s a question
just how much of that coating of
hastily applied information re
mains after it is scraped and raked
for the ‘’finals.” Not a great deal,
probably. And then who knows
whether lie got the answers right
or not. “Fooey. what a life!”
Renigging and backtracking
seems to be popular these days.
We note that Register GHarder
W. M. Tugrnan ba ieally contra
dicts his opinion: of a week ago
on the rotten football situation by
giving the Webfoots a column of
praise in his Sunday writing. How
long will it be before some of these
tight-rope walkers tall oft ?

Dear Aunt Eppie:
I don’t know what I will do, Ep
pie, old gal. Here it is two weeks
from final exams and I don’t know
which way is up, in fact I don’t
know which way I am going. I
have been writing to the folks and
telling them how smart I am, but
actually I couldn’t pass a fifth
grade spelling contest at the pres
ent writing. What shall I do ?
Jack Lumber (W—).
Dear Jack:
In a case like this you might go
back to the grade school and get
a fresh start (but this time look
out for a dame with a baby stare.)
This method isn’t so hot, so I will
let you in on the ground floor,
(maybe even the cellar.) There is
a boat leaving Portland for Man
churia next week. Jack, old boy,
TAKE THAT BOAT.
Frankly,
Aunt Eppie.

Free Admittance to Show
Offered in Unique Contest
A novel "Find your partner”
game” is being introduced on the
campus this week in conjunction
with the showing of Ramon No
varro bearing the insignias of a
heart suit, have been mailed to ev
ery living organization on the
campus. The cards are all in pairs,
that is for every ace of hearts held
by a fraternity man, there is a
second ace of hearts in the hands
of some sorority girl. The game
consists of finding the man, or
woman, holding the card to match.
In addition to getting a partner
“by chance,” both will be admitted
free upon presenting the matched
cards at the Colonial box office
Wednesday night.
No jokers are included in the
sets, reports the theatre manage
ment, who expect the game to be
all the rage until all pairs have
been mated. The theatre refuses
responsibility for any steady dates
occurring as an outcome of the
match-making game.

Are they as good as when the

Good? . . . You bet they are! Maybe

are a whole lot better. No doubt about that.
They used to be made by hand—
Now if s machines; no hand but yours

They used to be packed in expensive,

Now the quality is in the cigarettes.

Tobacco used to be dried by air—
Now Liggett if Myers alone has thirty
five drying machines of the latest type,

Chesterfield tobaccos — both Turkish

And the way Chesterfield tobaccos are
