Thank You, Mr. Bush 'T'HERE’LL be no "beating around the "Bush" on the library steps, for Skull and Daggers, sophomore service honorary, yesterday politely said, "No, than you,” to the Order of the "O” lettermen who had tendered them the duty (?) of punishing freshman tradition violators with the well-known oak. Neal Bush, S. & D. president, said this: .“Hacking of fresh men on the library steps is hardly the purpose of a SERVICE >rganization.” You’re right, Mr. Bush, it isn’t. Did you see what Howard Steib, president of the freshman class, had to say yesterday? “We felt in our class,” said he, "that we were going to be greatly honored and trusted when the abolition of public punishment for freshmen was proposed. We believed that it would make the ‘wearing of the green’ more of an honor and privilege than it has ever been before.” Right again. The Emerald, while opposed to the library steps policy of forcing freshmen to wear green lids, believes the "wearing of the green” a great thing- and we want to see it continued. Green lids work for class unity and strength, and they mold the first-year men together in a common band. A mighty good alternative for the library steps sessions was suggested at yesterday’s N. S. F. A. committee meeting. Why not a tribunal composed of the presidents of the Order of the "O,” Skull and Daggers, and the various classes, which would punish non-wearers of lids by making them do some construc tive work around the campus—tidying up lawns and shrubbery beds, swabbing the senior bench, which isn’t clean yet, and so on? Think it over—it’s a great idea. Women First of All a woman first of all; after that be a newspaper woman, a teacher, or whatever it is you are planning.” This is the advice which William M. Tugman, managing editor of the Register-Guard, has given women intending to enter tha journalistic field. "If you think that in a career is to be found the highest form of happiness, you are inevitably doomed to disappoint ment,” was another idea which Tugman gave the women to think about. ; The craze which women have had in the past two decades for a career above everything else is fortunately, we believp, dying out. We hear less often of the woman who is willing to sacrifice everything for the sake of her career. , This does not mean that women, after injecting themselves forcibly and in many instances successfully into our modern industrial, business world, are just as suddenly withdrawing from it. Not at all. Women are still interested in professions. The tide seems to have turned from absorption in a career to the complete elimination of everything else in life, to an earnest desire to learn a profession to which one may turn if one has to. Along with learning professions women are study ing the many other phases of life with which they will have to deal. The career has been moved from the center of the stage t'o occupy a position where its relative worth should place it. Women are regaining their balance, lost with the freedom this generation gave them, and are remembering that they are women first of all. * these hectic days when such campus traditions as the Junior Vodvil and the "library steps” are being tossed about, &vo nobler traditions have been shattered. The shock was great, Und we feel moved to sound a note of warning lest the repercus sion go to the very heart of the campus. Dean James II. Gilbert missed his class in Public Finance yesterday without first giving notice to the students, and on Wednesday, we hear, Dr. James B). Bainett missed his class in Modern Government “for the first time in he didn't know how many years.” What to do, what to do? j ^r' Martin Dewey, president of the American Dental associa tion, recently revealed that beer and light wines are not only good for the expectant mother but that they aid in the develop ment of the unborn child's teeth. (Notes of progress: The beer bottle supplants the teething ring.) We learn that Harvard has abolished Yale locks from its dormitories. In line with this rather startling policy of patriot ism, it will be but a matter of time until the Vassal- student body puts a ban on Smith cough drops, and Yale takes drastic action against the Harvard classics.

KESEIIVED SEATS To the Editor: Tuesday night at me Idalio-Ore gon game a large section was set aside, reserved, for those people who had complimentary tickets. Numerous townspeople who paid admission had to take what they could get, or what was left. Some time ago an announcement was made in the paper that there would be no reserved seats at bas ketball games—everyone had an equal chance for a good seat—why not keep it that way ? The people of Eugene support the athletic games, and it seems that those who pay admission should be entitled to good seats. I am not complaining about the amount of complimentary tickets given out, nor are any other people I have talked to, but there is a complaint about the partiality shown. Those chosen few are en abled to see the game free—why should they have a special section when those who pay admission have to sit in some undesirable place? Let them have their free tickets, but also let them take what seats they can get along with the others. It seems to me that the paying public should have the choice, if there is to be one, or at least an equal chance. —B. E. PEAKE AND MILITARY SCIENCE To the Editor: According to an editorial in yes terday's Emerald Roger A. Pfaff has enrolled in advanced military science. This does not greatly sur prise those who knew him, but the editor's support of such an action needs to be analyzed.

Such an attitude in its final analysis is one of justifying aggression. Of course it is bunk to expect peace when so many influential people take such an attitude. “Many governments of the world cannot control their own activi ties.” True—in fact history fails to account one instance where the people of a nation has been able to control its military department. Shall we again have a militaristic element that can cause us to take away the best part of a Latin American country, force us to fight a war against a country which has agreed to our demands, or get us excited over the sinking of a Brit ish ship carrying munitions ? By withholding of the truth and by military propaganda we have al lowed ourselves to yield to the mob psychology. “A machine gun on every house top would be wasteful; but a lock on the front door is a necessity.” Every one knows which one of these instruments the military de partment represents.

DELEGATES TALK OVER OLD TIMES AT MEETING (Continued from Page One) Democratic but Independent, he explained to Dean Allen, in the course of banquet talks. Quincy Scott, new cartoonist for the Ore gonian, was told that deadlines sneak up, that they don’t gallop down. But Bob Allen, of Sigma Delta Chi, told Sterling in what magazine he read one of his best stories — the one a h o u t the “wenches” being dilapidated. “Dichotomy”—for the benefit of those editors who do not have dic tionaries in their hotel rooms— means “bifurcation.” Hal Hoss and Elbert Bede are out to give each other all the pub licity they possibly can. Bede poked his head in the door at the "daily editors’ ” meeting, inter rupting Shelton F. Sackett’s talk on the future of the newspaper business with, “Is everybody here for Hal Hoss?” The editors chorused, “No.” In return, Hoss addressed his banquet speech to the toastmaster, to the ladies and gentlemen, and to Elbert Bede. Being delayed in getting out “yesterday's paper,” Mr. and Mrs. A. L. Mallory of the Oakland Tribune arrived just as the ban quet came to a close. Mallory is a past president of the Oregon State Editorial association. 125 DELEGATES ARRIVE TO OPEN PRESS CONFAB (Continued from Page One) according to Mr. Richardson. ‘The’ rate of pay in newspaper shops is probably considerably higher than that of any other small-town industry,” he said. ' Typography Gains David Foulkes, mechanical su perintendent of the Oregonian, de picted the steady development of typographical efficiency and how this development facilitated the progress of the newspaper indus try. "We are doing work today in newspaper plants, in the rush of a day's work, that a few years ago could only be done in the best of trade plants. The local adver tiser can now stand shoulder to shoulder with his national and foreign brothers and not be ashamed,” F. mikes said. The United Press and Associ ated Press acted as hosts at luncheon to members of their services. Sigma Delta Chi, Theta Sigma Phi. and Alpha Delta Sig ma entertained the others attend ing the conference. For the afternoon session, the delegates were divided into two^ groups—daily and weekly—for dis-: mission • f individual problems. William Tug man. managing edi - tor of the Eugene Register-Guard,' spoke to the daily group on the outcome of the readers’ interest survey conducted by the paper and University students. Merlin Blais, Harry Van Dine, and Ted Mont gomery-, University students super intending the survey, then de scribed the procedure used and led the discussion which followed. Press Necessary “The world’s tempo has in creased more rapidly in the last .three decades than in any other time in history. The press is more necessary than ever to portray the news and the interpretation of this change,” said Sheldon F. Sackett, co-publisher of the Oregon States man, Salem, in relating “What the future holds out for the newspaper industry.” Problems which the weekly pub lications encounter were the cen tral topics of the weekly division session. The discussion included such problems as job printing de partments, merchandising the newspaper, and audited circula tions. Gamma Alpha Chi, women’s na tional advertising honorary, enter tained the women delegates with a tea during these sessions at Ger linger hall. 86 DELEGATES REGISTER AT PRESS CONFERENCE (Continued from Tnge One) United Press; Leslie J.

LIBRARIAN GIVES TALK Miss Lcnore Casford, periodical librarian at the University library, delivered a talk on children's lit-' eraturc Wednesday. January 20, at the monthly meeting of the local Association for Childhood Educa tion., The meeting .was held‘at France-. Willard -chool. ‘FOREVER ALWAY’ IS REMEMBERED HERE (Continued from Tage One) where he used to work in a quarry mine. His specialty was, it seems, fine cutting for cornices and so on. He said he used to have to work long hours in the sun, and we think that it—well—overcame him a bit. He seemed a bit queer. “Oh yes, he said he was mar ried, and had a fine wife—a writer. Probably for some small publica tions; he didn’t say. Then he said he turned all his property and money over to her and set out to walk. He told her he’d be able to pick up enough money on the way, but I know he didn’t have much when he got here. “Then he got the idea of walk ing up to Alaska and crossing to Asia and walking down through China and Japan. I told him, ‘Why, man, you’re crazy to try it this time of year. Winter is just setting in and you'll never make it.' And I advised him to wait till spring, but he wouldn't do it. “I told him to write me when and if he got to China, and possi bly I might publish some of his papers on what he found there. Well. I got one letter, and that didn’t say much. Since then I haven’t heard a word. And I'm sure that if he tried to make that trip I probably never will.” WAR DEBTS ARE USED TO CONCEAL ERRORS (Continued from 7age One) City in 1928-1930, with the result that the most outrageous specula tion in history was made possible. P’ederal reserve officials justified this inflation policy by maintain ing that a higher rate would wreck European systems by draw ing their gold to America. A courageous policy on the part of the Federal reserve might have checked the inflation in Europe and in the United States, and per haps have prevented the collapse.” Professor Crumbaker explained that the United States apparently had a narrow escape from finan cial difficulties, as seen by the withdrawal of nearly a billion dol lars in gold, and whether this dan ger is over or not is not clear, he stated. “While the reparations and war debts are important, they should not be used to cover up policies that have long since been proven to be uneconomic and un sound,” he concluded. GIRLS Do Not Smoke Pipes THE GIRLS haven’t left us many of our masculine rights. They fly our airplanes, drive our cars, smoke our cigarettes — but they don’t smoke our pipes! They’ve left us this one manly right, anyway. A man almost has to smoke a pipe nowadays. A pleasant necessity! For a pipe filled with good tobacco You’ll never see her smoking a pipe. is just about the best smoke a man could want.
