China or Japan?
TiiTANCHURIA, thousands of miles across the Pacific, and
A little known to the general college student, will be brought
to his attention sharply tonight. A Chinese and an American
student in the University will take the stage in Villard assembly
this evening, presenting for the benefit of the entire campus
an accurate insight into the crisis between China and Japan.
The open forum debate tonight will be between Wu Tang,
champion of China’s cause, and Art Potwin, secured by the
speech department as Japan's defender, and should prove one of
the most interesting and enlightening debates ever offered on the
campus. Both men have studied the question thoroughly, and
arc excellent speakers. The chairman of the debate, Dr. Harold
J. Noble, professor of history, who will present a third-party
observation of the Sino-Japanese trouble, taught in Korea for
several years and knows the territory.
Is China or Japan in the right? The answer will be given
the campus tonight at Villard hall.
Quiet ^Requested
■pOR the benefit of those who have retired.”
Although no such sign has been posted in Condon library,
one expressing a similar wish would not be amiss. True, stu
dents may not have "retired,” but more than a few nodding
heads can be counted at any time of the day.
As a rule we make a policy of not frequenting Condon libe
any more than is absolutely necessary in getting assignments.
Campus restaurants are the only other places on the campus
which rival it for noise and distraction. Although bridge has
not been introduced into the libe as yet, dog-fights and other
diversions help in keeping up that good old atmosphere.
The possibility that the libe might be made more of a place
of study, for which it was originally designed, if students made
a slight attempt to walk with a fair amount of quietness, has
never occurred to most users of the libe. Athletic heroes and
other he-men stride down the aisles with thuds which are enough
to make even the sturdiest pen jump from the paper. Dear
little co-eds with high-heeled shoes trip back and forth with
resounding thuds which echo and re-echo.
"Quiet is requested . . . for the benefit of those who want
to or can study this week and next.”

Mr. Average Man Thinks
By WARREN TINKER
Apologies to those in charge of
the Fine Arts Museum. The aver
age man didn't mean to be harshly
critical and was in error concern
ing student contributions to the
building. However, the EMERALD
HAS CARRIED ONLY ONE
SMALL STORY THIS TERM
ABOUT THE MUSEUM, and the
conclusion reached by the average
man had little to contradict it at
the time.
But Mr. Editor- Why don’t you
enumerate some more of the aver
age man’s alleged intolerances and
examples of immaturity? If I err
on the side of too harsh criticism,
you certainly fail in your writings
' to see anything wrong with the
University.
Oregon students are led to be
lieve that grades are all important:
Is that right?
The Order of the “O,” athletic
representatives, take unto them
selves the discipline of the fresh
men, a group whose average is
far more intelligent than them
selves. Is that right ?
If any errors' in judgment have
appeared in this column, let them
be known as those of the average
man who has tried to let honest
thinking students know that they
are not alone in their views.
“TO ERR IS HUMAN, TO FOR
GIVE DIVINE.”

fight which has been waged bit

students after the president had
started what was termed a “one

Problem: how to answer a
million a day
Users of Bell System service ask “Informa
tion” more than 1,000,000 questions every
day. Providing facilities for answering them
promptly, correctly, was one problem put up
to engineers of the Bell System.
So effective was their solution that this
prodigious task is now a matter of smooth
routine. They designed desks which enable
each operator to reach quickly the listings of
some 15,500,000 telephones. They developed
apparatus which automatically routes calls to
operators not busy —and should all operators
be busy at once, it stores up calls and releases
them in the order received!
Efficient telephone service depends upon
working out interesting problems like this.
