Frosh Elections Toned Down "JWTO LONGER will freshman class elections he open to the ■*" ^ fraud, excessive campaigning, needless expense, and threat ened disruption of class spirit which characterized the election held last term by the class of 1935. An amendment to the A. S. U. O. constitution, which will come before the student body at its meeting late next month, will cure the ills. More than three months ago the Emerald demanded an in vestigation by campus leaders of the freshman class election which had just been held. Disfranchisement of voters was known to have dccurred, and the campaign throughout had been car ried to an unwarranted extreme. This new constitutional amendment will do away with the greatest incentive to “over-political” freshman elections, by pro viding that the election be held one or two weeks after the start of fall term instead of three. This shorter time between the opening of school and the combined nominating and electing assembly will defeat any start of party machinery so destructive to organized class workings. ' The presentation of signed student body cards in exchange for ballots, will make identification more accurate and prevent duplicate, illegal voting. But the cards should be punched, too, though the amendment says nothing about that in exact words. Party politics in the freshman class elections get another death blow in the provision for a nominating committee which will choose two candidates for each office. Dark horses may enter the race by nomination at the assembly, and they should make the competition interesting. In this proposed constitutional amendment, brought out by the N. S. F. A. committee, which is the campus’ most hard working group, we can see nothing but the best for belter class government. Chapter Two Concluded f'-'iHINA went to the Paris peace conference determined to oust the Japanese from Shantung, and to compel the Japs to eat their Twenty-One Demands, liut Japan had enlisted the sup port of England, France, Italy, and Russia; the Treaty of 1915 was upheld. The complete transfer of German rights and leases in Shantung and the acceptance of the first four groups of the Twenty-One Demands was ratified by the powers of the world. Then came the Washington conference, which Foreign Min ister Yoshizawa termed the "great beacon standing alone in the midst of Chinese international relations." Baron Kato iwho deleted Group Five of the Demands in the English version) asked confirmation of the Treaty of 1915 when China protested that she had been coerced into acceptance. Under the eyes of Lord Balfour and Secretary Hughes, the Bri tish and American referees, the Shantung problem was ironed out. For 3t> sessions of the conference, Japanese and Chinese statesmen faced each other across the tables of Washington. Shantung was to be returned to China, they decided. )Or rather, it was to be returned to the great powers, under the open door. China was to be exploited in unison, not by any single power.) Having thought to pacify China with the return of the Gor man leasehold—though keeping German port leases elsewhere - Japan again asked for confirmation of the status quo. China said that the Treaty of 1915 violated her sovereignty, and vio lated her treaties with other nations. Secretary Hughes said that the treaty rights of the United States were sufficiently safe guarded under the existing arrangement. Great Britain con curred. And Japan's treaty rights to a sphere of influence in Manchuria and Mongolia were for the second time upheld. 'Coffee And’ at Concerts FTER much ranting on the virtues and benefits ol good music, after praising people and movements in the Univer sity for their support of the "finer things of life," after taking pains to inform various and sundry of the value of certain work of the masters in music, the Emerald learns that it must be more careful in the future. Its optimism has been shaken, its pride has been shamed. Figures compiled after the concert last Sunday afternoon show that fully as many Eugene townspeople us students heard the concert. The townspeople came from one to ten miles to hear what the University had to offer in the way of good music, presented with all the trimmings of a highly-trained chorus and a full or chestra. They shelled out two-bits to get in. One hundred-fifty students cured enough for good music to walk from one to ten blocks tor the same performance. They got in free.

THANKS LECTURERS To the Editor: Now that the faculty lecture se ries is completed perhaps a few words of appreciation from an at tending citizen of Eugene'would be appropriate. To say that I ap preciate them is hardly sufficient, for somewhere in the back of my head I feel an obligation to the University administration and especially to the lecturers, who so assiduously and charitably devoted their time for the benefit of the public weal. As an interested member of the audience, however, I have a criti cism which I cannot help but ex press. Considering that the lec tures were supposed to be for an audience considerably above the norm, the fact that a lecture is read to an audience may be for the best interest of some, but for myself, and I think I speak of the majority, this seems to be rather stiltified and difficult manner presenting that for which the lec ture was intended. In saying this, I feel as though I am another one of those knock ers who is always vain enough not to hold his tongue and does not ap preciate the efforts of others. This is not the case, however, for I real ize a written lecture often takes more time to prepare than an oral one, and credit is due him who is so industrious. In closing, I wish to apologize for my criticism and thank you for your cordial invitation to the townspeople. —JOHN B. SMITH. ERB TO JUDGE DEBATE Dr. Donald M.

Montana Debate Squad Will Meet Oregon Tonight Congress Club Will Hear Campbell and Reedy Defend Affirmative “Should the government control industry?” That will be the bone of conten tion between the representatives of the University of Montana and the Oregon speakers in the debate to begin tonight at 7:30. The contest will be given before the Congress club in the hall above the University Co-op. The question as formally stated and of which Oregon will maintain the affirmative is: “Resolved, That congress should enact legislation providing for the centralized con trol of industry.” The Oregon team will be made up of Wallace Campbell and Rolla Reedy. Although the contest will be non decision, the cross-examination system will be used. Each speaker will be allowed to speak for a 12 minute period. He will then be re quired to submit to a six-minute questioning by a member of the opposing side. The rebuttals will be of six-minute duration. Another distinctive feature of the meet will be the usage of the conference style of debate which was inaugurated by the speech di vision in a freshman debate two weeks ago.

Everybody is in a eonspiraey these days to give us a lot of dope on a lot of dopes they don’t iike or something. We’ll make this a colyum yet. Probably not today, though. The other half of Bobar phoned that he was all broken out with a rhythmic rasli and was off writing poetry—So here's half a so-called columnist trying to remember enough dope to write de dope about de dopes— this gets involved, ’tenny rate— We got a suspission. We got a suspission about the Theta Chis. A few years ago the Betas were always conniving to get a man prominent in something besides athletics, and the Phi Delts kept boosting a Phi Delt toward athletic fame, and the S. A. E.’s always had some bro they thought would be a good journalist, all of them trying to make one of the boys prominent in some field, and now comes Theta Chj, and we got a sus pission they’re just trying to get a man prominent, and they don't care how—why else would they keep telling us in sotto voice about Gregg? We’re sorry if Gregg's girl Hopkins up at the Pi Phi shanty flipped him out, but this ain’t no publicity colyum, and he don’t get in again. Not if we know Of course this ain't no publicity coiyum. If we were to tell you to go to the Cocoanut Grove on a Fri day night we’d have our reasons. You might go off down there and get a few pointers from the mae stro about the O’Melveny dip—or Mahr Reymers doin’ the shoulder butt—Kinney tip-tapping around in the famous Kinney Backward Balance—Why not emulate the .masters? After ten lessons from terpsiehorean Gargantua’s we can almost guarantee a lot of things we couldn’t have before. The mighty have fallen! From the haughty confines of the Theta abode comes this luscious lump of j.he ludicrous. That the august presidential dignity of Kappa Al pha Theta, vested in Beth Ann Johnson, went amiss, whilst this Miss tripped lightly to class one day, one high heel after one low heel, not to mention that they were shoes of conflicting hue, and prexy didn’t even turn cerise about the gills till after class when her re miss was pointed out. Well now, what if you saw Emily Post eating spaghetti with chop-sticks? We got a blonde we want to bring to your attenshun. The .name: Joan Cox. You don’t know her? Of course not. If you did there would be little excuse for her getting into the Feet of Clay Date bureau. The gal is a Chi Omega, .hut deserving anyway. She has a winsome smile, genooyn ..blonde tresses, and the prettiest pair of pins—(not fraternity pins)—She's agreeable too, because she asked us to get into this, and we a ways —well, anyway, look at the pichur. —Of course, we didn’t say we'd I be match - mak ers, too, but this is almost a natur al. How about Thomas W. Mo ran for the job? The boy’s a run ner, like in silk hose. Curly brown hair, athlete’s shoulders, the real Barrymore profile. He says that he and the Chi O’s are just like this anyway. (Xi. He’s willing to learn, and, well—he's real will ling— Hey, that’s enough for today, •anyway. See yu later.

SPRING POLITICS HANG IN BALANCE TODAY (Continued from Page One) the results will affect every liv ing group. “The session this afternoon will do much to show the campus just how campus politics and student government operate. Out of the crowd on hand this afternoon we hope to develop a large group of students who will be interested enough to continue these discus sions and help us reach solutions of the many problems which now confront the Oregon student body —questions of budgeting, of fi nance, of athletics and publica tions. “If the campus wants good stu dent government, it must back the student administration. The re ception accorded the discussion to day will spell victory or defeat for our plans for an awakened, active, cooperating student body.” Frosh Commission Heads To Entertain YW Cabinet Members of Frosh commission cabinet will entertain the members of the general Y.

The Mendelssohn work, less florid, was built on a striking four-note theme, and worked to a full cli max. Yet there were dull mo ments, in spite of the efforts of the conductor to keep the music moving. The chorus, the orches tra, and the soloists did their work consistently, but high pitched enthusiasm was not writ ten into the score.
