Welcome Home!
'T'ODAY three students of the University of Oregon return to
A the campus after a seven months’ speaking tour in coun
tries of the Pacific Basin. They return loaded down with medals,
cups, and other awards as tokens of their speaking success. But
they bring far more than these concrete symbols of their activ
ity—they bring messages of the greatest interest from China,
Japan, the Philippines, Australia. Messages of interest and im
port. And from these messages one can gain some realization
of the nature and value of the work accomplished by the three.
The welcome of the University and students today can hardly
suitably express the appreciation and thanks due to these emis
saries of international good will. Students can best express
their appreciation through personal contacts during the year
and by the interest they show in pursuing the work that has
been given impetus by the Pacific Basin debate tour.
In welcoming and meeting with the returning debaters, Wal
ter E. Hempstead, instructor in the public speech department
and a member of the first world debate tour in 1927-28, lists four
things that should be held in mind:
1. Appreciation for the great work the trio has done.
2. Exalting the status of forensics as a sphere of A. S. U. O.
activity.
3. Effecting a high degree of social student body conscious
ness centered around intellectual activity, which has not been
manifested at Oregon as keenly as in higher educational institu
tions abroad, nor at all except with football as the impetus.
4. Symbolizing through these boys a peculiar University mis
sion of developing international good will, especially between
the Orient and the Occident.
World History
'T'HE text used in History 203 (World History) in the year
2032 A. D. (After Depression) may well read as follows:
“By the close of the second decade -of the last century, the
island empire of Japan had reached the conclusion that she
needed room for expansion, and that Manchuria was available.
The Chinese were in no way able to maintain their control over
this fertile, wealthy country.
“The Japanese civil power was considering the request of
trade protectorateship or purchase, when the military power of
the country, taking advantage of the virtual bankruptcy of many
nations who might have intervened forcibly, began a well
planned invasion of Manchuria, under the guise of protecting
Japanese investments from the depredations of bandits.
"Within four months every Chinese military body of any
strength was driven to the shelter of the Great Wall. The
twentieth century methods and equipment of warfare, such as
airplanes, machine guns, long-range artillery, and high-power
automatic rifles, quickly subdued the feeble and disorganized op
position.
“It was only the most feverish efforts of the League of Na
tions, and the constant and vigorous protests of the Western
nations which prevented an actual declaration of war.
“Supporters of the League later pointed with pride to this
achievement, arguing that if the League had restrained Japan
from a declaration of war, and had been successful in eliciting
explanations and statements of justification from the Japanese
civil authorities, committed to the undertaking by the over
zealous military powers, the cause of world peace hail been ad
vanced. The branding of Chinese military forces as ‘bandits’
was a triumph of international arbitration."
It Seems To Be Spring
J ANUARY in Eugene. Students, fully rested up after'a stren
uous vacation, yawning in afternoon classes. Campus paths
dotted with loitering couples. Thirteenth street curbstones con
gested with the army of between-elass smokers. The cemetery
sprinkled with nature-loving idlers. And a warm sun beaming
down on all and sundry.
In town, shirt-sleeved merchants conducting overtures to
business deals in front of their stores, stretching and yawning.
No hot-stove league sessions, but rather the benches of the city
park groaning under a full load. In January.
Down along the railroad tracks, near the mill, a happy fam
ily of the congenitally unemployed snoozing in the shade. The
willows bend and creak. The river rushes along. And the ’bos
asleep in the shade.
Beyond the city limits, small farms steaming under the sun,
fields sweating off then recent floods. Chickens and ducks strut
ting and waddling lazily across their enclosures. Dogs lying on
the garage driveway, panting. A pair of pheasants streaming
to the thicket down by the creek at the sound of an approach
ing car.
January in Eugene.
Five graceful poplar trees, part of the once majestic hedge
on the southeast corner of Thirteenth and University streets,
paid the price of modern life yesterday afternoon. They were
felled by University workmen, and pail of the bank cut away,
as a traffic menace.
The motor cars will rush more swiftly down the street, but
tho^e fallen DOOlar; leave ‘a vacant nlacr aram.t the l.-. '

New Telephones
Change Numbers
At Emerald Office
A CHANGE in the telephone
service of the Emerald edi
torial offices has necessitated
some changes in the Emerald
phone numbers. The new num
bers are as follows:
Local 354—Editor, Managing
editor, news editor, sports edi
tor.
Local 355—News room.
AH notices and stories for the
paper will be taken in the news
room. Members of the general
news staff may also be reached
at this number. Those calling
from outside the campus should
specify “Emerald News Room,”
to avoid confusion.
Local 354 is intended for the
use of those desiring to talk
personally with staff officials.
Connection to this line may be
obtained by asking the operator
for the desired party or office.
Some of these numbers dif
fer from those in the student
directory and in the University
telephone directory, and it is
asked that those using campus
phones note these changes in
the books.
Capricious Coeds
To Cut Capers at
A.W.S. Jamboree
Who’s your date for the Co-ed
Capers?” You’d better call her
this week or it will be too late.
Of course it isn’t essential that
you have a date for the Capers,
but you’ll have a slick time if you
date her up just as though you
were a man, and call for her with
your coach and four and do all
the things a very proper escort
should! (In these years of de
pression and dire distress we do
not, under any circumstances, rec
ommend that you splurge yourself
to the extent of sending her gar
denias, however.)
The Co-ed Capers will be the
biggest event yet, according to the
committee of Associated Women
Students, which is making plans
for the affair. And though they
haven’t said so, we suspect that
their belief is founded on the fact
that women only are in charge of
the Capers, the great all-woman
jamboree of the year.
For those who haven’t been
awake long enough to know what
it’s all about, the Co-ed Capers is
a women-only costume event which
will replace the April Frolic of
old. It will be held next Wednes
day evening at 7:30 in Gerlinger
hall. And all women attending
will be allowed late permission un
til 11 o’clock. How do I know?
Best authority on the campus—
Hazel Prutsman Schwering!
Oh, yes, and Harriette Saeltzer
just burst in to say that her com
mittee will sell popcorn balls and
Eskimo pies in unknown quanti
ties. Price, five cents.
The four classes will give stunts,
for which each of them hopes to
be awarded the Laraway cup. And
the Senior Cops and other promi
nent entertainers are going to give
some "very new and very differ
ent” features.

BOOKS OF THE DAY
EDITED BY ROY SHEEDY
BLACK ANARCHISTS
The Russian Dance of Death. By
Dirk Gora. Key Books.
By JACK BAUER
When General Denikin’s White
army broke up in the Dnieper val
ley, in South Russia, where it had
1 followed the German retreat, black
anarchists rose from the ashes to
l loot the country. After many ex
periments in autocratic govern
1 ment, the Blacks finally won com
plete sway, and soon engaged the
Red armies.
Between the battle lines were
the Ukraine Mennonite settle
ments. The ancestors of these pi
ous Dutch, German, and Swedish
settlers had been invited to come
to the fertile Dnieper valley 150
years ago, and they had prospered.
But the Tsarist regime had com
pleted plans for their exile to Rus
; sia, the author says, when the Oc
tober revolution blew ‘‘that rotten
government” apart.
The schoolmaster of the Men
nonite normal school, who was a
humanitarian, a gentleman, a per
son of culture and sympathy, is
the story teller. His picture of
the visitation of the plague, when
50 per cent of the Dutch settlers
died; of the slaughter of their cat- '
tie when the Black soldiers wanted !
a meal; of the thousand liumilia- ]
tions and abuses heaped on them
by the ‘‘murderous marauders,” is
I near to a classic in tenderness for

his people, in patience and forgive
ness for his enemies.
Makhno’s anarchist horde, Au
thor Gora says, “after eight years
of systematic drill for killing” in
the army of the Tsar, was now
“given the opportunity for slaugh
ter on individual initiative.” Four
of the 12 villages of peaceful set
tlers were wiped out in one at
tack.
When Gora’s own father and
brothers are killed as White sym
pathizers, the old schoolmaster
throws up his hands with the cry,
“Sophocles, you who wrote Anti
gone, I yield the pen to you.”
ENESCO RETAINS SKILL
AFTER EARLY DEBUT
(Continued from Page One)
well as violin, and his work in this
field won many prizes for him. He
is now recognized as the father of
the modern Rumanian school of
national music. His “Poem Rou
main” and much of his chamber
music are based on typical Ru
manian themes.
Before he was 21, Enesco heard
a complete program of his own
compositions played at the Paris
Conservatory, where he studied for
several years. He was a consist
ent winner of prizes in composi
tion.
Yehudi Menuhin, 14-year-o 1 d
San Francisco boy who received
an ovation of 20 minutes’ duration
at his first European concert in
Paris in 1929, has been for several
years Enesco’s pupil. Kayla Mit
zel, who played with the Portland
Symphony orchestra this season as
guest artist, also is Enesco’s pupil.
