YOUR INTEREST SOLICITED
SOME of us—and their numbers are considerable
—have been so engrossed in football games,
dances, new clothes, and the boy or girl across the
street that they have shut one and sometimes both
eyes to the making of history in our native land.
Our country, one of the greatest on the face of the
earth, is about to select a man to head its admin
istration for the ensuing four years.
The candidate who comes forth from the elec
tion next month will step into the archives of his
tory. He will inherit a grand tradition. He will
do his work in the office that was Abraham Lin
coln’s. He will become the 33rd of an immortal
legion—a legion that includes only the men who
have been the chief executives of the United States
of America.
mm Home 01 our numoer snouia be so mgrossed
in comparatively trivial affairs that they can ig
nore a situation as important as the one now be
fore the nation is hard to conceive. Who that sat
by a radio did not thrill when a tumultous Repub
lican convention named Herbert Hoover to take his
place by the side of McKinley, Lincoln, and pthers
of their illustrious clan? The person must have
been blase indeed who sat by complacently and
heard the even more jubilant Democrats hail
Franklin Roosevelt as the standard-bearer of Old
Hickory Jackson's party.
The Oregon Emerald wants the students of the
University to have an opportunity to become vitally
interested in the coming national election. To ac
complish that desire, this paper, as announced yes
terday, will sponsor a straw ballot on the three
leading candidates—Hoover, Roosevelt, and Nor
man Thomas.
There is a trio of men who are making history.
College students of a century from now will read
about the one of them who succeeds next month.
The courageous Thomas will be remembered for his
valiant struggle against overwhelming odds. Well
worth while would be 30 minutes detracted from
time spent at a dance or movie and devoted to
serious consideration of the qualifications of the
presidential candidates.
This paper believes in devoting the majority of
its column-inches to campus news. Thus it is mak
ing the presidential campaign an issue of campus
moment for the time being by sponsoring a straw
poll. The Emerald urges your participation in the
balloting. The success of the project is dependent
upon the students’ interest.
The past, two days the campus has spent con
siderable time discussing a relatively insignificant
matter an altercation, now patched up, between
two student-body officers. Let us shove such minor
affairs into the background for the more serious
consideration of the Emerald’s straw poll.
Similar ballots were taken recently at Califor
nia, Southern California, and Oregon State. At
none of those schools was the cooperation very sat
isfactory, least of all at Corvallis. Let us show
them that Oregon can excell their participation.
KEEP YOl’K MIND OPEN
f 1 MIK OCTOBER 19 issue of "The Nation" calls
to task President Robinson of the College of the
City of New York for refusing the request of the
student forum to hold a campus meeting at which
spokesmen for the Republican. Democratic, Social
ist, and Communist parties wore scheduled to ap
pear. It also cites the fact that students at Colum
bia university have just discovered that sometime
last August a new ruling was made which, in
effect, deprives tnem of the right to hold any pub
lie discussions not first approved by the authori
ties.
It seems that the Social Problems club of
Columbia university called a meeting to protest
against Secretary of Labor Doak's ruling against
the non-quota foreign students who are supporting
themselves in American colleges, only to be in
formed that the regulation adopted in August for
bade the holding of such a meeting unless approved
and sponsored by a member of the faculty holding
professorial rank. In fact, the university adminis
tration refused the use of the McMillin Academic
theatre to the club, which proposed to hold another
meeting to discuss the conditions of chain-gang
labor.
"The Nation" remarks that President Butler,
whose professed ideal for a university has always
been that of a group of mature scholars, pursuing
independent research and free thought with the
instruments provided by the university, has seem
ingly contradicted him.;elf in actual practice. The
magazine says that his slogan might well be: "Keep
your mind open, but keep your mouth shut.”
Thursday night students of this University par
ticipated in a symposium, sponsored by the speech
department, in which the merits of the Republican,
Democratic, Socialist, and Communist candidates
were considered. It was the type of thing that one
would expect to find in any body of thinking, ma
ture open-minded people. It was a frank discus
sion, doubtless worthwhile to all who attended.
Certainly, it harmed nobody.
There seems to us nothing really wrong in
Columbia’s edict that all public discussions must
be approved by the proper authorities, though it
is a rather surprising rule for Columbia to adopt.
It is the manner in which the rule has been applied,
the refusal of students’ requests for open meetings
where present-day social and economic problems
may be discussed, that seems to us objectionable.
We are glad that our own administration is one
that looks at such situations in an open-minded, in
telligent attitude. It would be most unfortunate
if political symposiums and “So-and-So for Presi
dent” clubs were forbidden on Oregon’s campus.
BOOTS AND SADDLES
CALL OUT the Royal Mounted! Certain cam
pusites are perturbed with Mr. Hitchcock.
Some means of protecting Mr. Hitchcock must be
devised. The red-coated riders of the Mounted
might be able to save him; so might the British
high seas fleet. If those formidable organizations
are not enough, there are the French Foreign
Legion, Max Schmeling, Gus Sonnenberg, and the
Oregon National Guard.
Lads and lassies, Mr. Hitchcock means no harm.
He's just a tall young man trying to write a column
that interests people. With more pride than alarm,
he says several people have threatened to douse him
in the mill-race. Please don’t do that. We need
him around the office, and a dousing in the mill
race might deteriorate his considerable value to us.
Also, according to himself, the talented young
Mr. Hitchcock is a relative of that most famous of
all Hitchcocks Thomas Hitchcock, Jr., wielder of
the world’s most potent polo mallet and aviation
hero of 1918. And who’d want to get fresh with
Capt. Tommy Hitchcock’s relative? Certainly not
we.
LET’S PIGEON-HOLE IT
TT|rHAT was news yesterday is history today and
” ’ forgotten tomorrow. This is tomorrow for the
tiff that arose recently between the president and
vice-president of the student body. It had best
remain forgotten, and there will be no harm on
either side. Certainly its continuance can be of
no advantage to anyone, least of all to the two
concerned.
Still ahead of the vice-president is the important
responsibility of calling football signals against
Oregon State, Southern California, and St. Mary’s.
Petty bickerings on his mind will not add to the
efficiency with which he fulfills those responsibili
ties. The president also has numerous obligations
to confront, all of which will be dispatched better
if the controversy is forgotten.
We of the campus should do our part to ter
minate the affair by forgetting it. No particular
harm has been done, and its speediest end can be to
shove it in a pigeon-hole and leave it there. The
vice-president returns from the football wars Mon
day. Let us see to it that the matter has been
made a closed issue prior to that time.
AND NOW THE LAW SCHOOL
A FEW days ago an advertisement ran in the
Oregon Journal on a radio speech that was to
be given to point out the merits of the Zorn-Mac
pherson "grab bill." In this advertisement, the
backers of the school-hashing bill stated there were
only 50 students enrolled in the law school at Eu
gene.
These figures might have been correct in 1923,
for then there were only 51 students enrolled, but
in 1931 there were 124 students, showing an in
crease in nine years of about 150 per cent.
We do not see fit to lay any blame upon the
Journal for publishing such strikingly erroneous in
formation. although it would have been more pru
dent of them to investigate such a glaring error in
the construal of the facts. The burden of the blame
must be placed squarely upon the backs of the
school-muddlers. This deliberate canard was used
as a means of demonstrating that the law school
should be moved to Salem.
How completely the argument falls through
may be seen by the obvious necessity of retaining
the school in a location where it shows a remark
able, yet normal, increase in enrollment. The his
tory of the law school has been one of sterling ad
vancement: why throw it into the chaotic mess with
which the other portions of the state's higher edu
cational institutions are threatened?
First it was a petition “robbery,” tlreu a series
of sophistries, now this, a deliberate lie.
At Temple university. 75 per cent of the stu
dents work their way through.

Looking over the social calen
dar for the week-end:
Theta Chi’s promise their dance
guests a “general rough-house.”
Now if somebody would only
promise that Christmas will come
on the 25th of December ....
Chi Psi will use fneir old lodge on
the mill-race for a barn dance.
Who's got the present one chart
ered for the night? .... Ima
gine the Alpha Upsilons inviting
Dean Earl to a dance featuring
“all the decorations peculiar to
night clubs” .... Did any body
ever see any pledges being “hon
ored” at a pledge-dance ? ... .
The Inter-Fraternity council is al
ready to accuse the Phi Delts of
“trust-busting,” because they’ve
been feeding sorority girls six
course meals instead of giving
them the quid pro quo of dessert
only .... the lengths to which
some people will go to be popular.
* * *
Intriguing plan that Glen God
frey, Colonial theatre manager,
has of aiding the anti-consolida
tion funds. He will give the cost
of every tenth admission to the
fund. Now let's see .... 25 cents
a clay lor is days will be . . . .
Hmmmmm. What’ll he do if only
nine come ?
* * *
Infirmary nurses are reported to
be playing solitaire in the absence
of patients. As if they didn’t do
that when the place is full.
Funny how quiet the men’s gym
officials have been about taking
the gym charges of $1 per term
out of the $10 “breakage" fee. Bill
Whitely, back for his fifth year,
thought he was getting free ser
vice. Sorry, Bill, but you’ll only
get $7 back next June.
* * *
Did you ever lose a padlock or
its key at the men's gym ? If
you do, you can count on paying
three times what it's worth for it.
It's things like that that made the
$10 in advance system desirable
in the eyes of “the administra
tion."

Today’s brain-teaser: Just what
does forbidding “the use of cars on
the campus proper” mean ? Is
that intended to put a stop to
backing into the Pioneer or turn
ing around on a rose-bed?
Five years ago — the Campa
Shoppe enjoyed a capacity crowd,
dancing to Johnny Robinson’s
music at $1.65 a couple.
Last night—the Campa Shoppe
had a crowd listening to Abbie
Green’s music at $1.10 a couple.

in defense of fashions.

One of our alumnae, Lou Ann
Chase, tall, blond, good looking,
a member of Pi Beta Phi, mem
ber of Mortar Board, a woman;
who, three years ago, was one of
the most outstanding and promi
nent on the campus, writes:
"I’ll admit a girl should try to j
look her best. I'll admit the co
eds must be very beautiful. Quite
an improvement over the yellow
slickers, brogues, sweaters, and i
berets that we used to wear. Why.!
even the polo coat did have its1
chance in the 'good old days.’
"Of course, he clothes you ad
vocate are not for the campus 1
hope. But think how discouraging
this outlay would sound to us if
we were starting school again. As
a freshman in college. I had one
bouffant taffeta formal, and I felt
that I was quite fortunate to have
that."
Miss Chase has seen fit to
-sketch a wet-weather costume
which was popular on the campus
two years ago. It was the accept
ed costume: eight out of every ten
girls wore it. Today, individuality
is the keynote of fashion. J3ut we
don’t pay so much for it.
One of the most arresting and
becoming wet-weather outfits
which 1 have seen is worn by Be'
tv Powers: a rubberutd silk ram
I
coat in the new bright red, bande
lero cut with a short military
cape and a high waist, priced at
$7.50: a hat of brown suede cloth
that shoots down over the right
eye, costing $1.39; slim, arrogant
gillies in dark brown, priced at
$8.50. Under the raincoat, Miss
Powers wears a frock of brown
and grey (you remember that
brown and grey are the darling
est of color combinations.'), brown
skirt with a grey top, which has
wide sleeves and buttons down the
front with large wooden buttons,
all of this priced at $5. Total cost:
$22.39.
The yellow slicker of which Miss
Chase is speaking sold for $6.95.
At the present time, a beret costs
$1; a good pair of brogues, $10. j
The accepted ensemble with such
an outfit usually consisted of a
brown skirt, which now sells at
$2.95 up: a long-sleeved brown
sweater. $3.95: a broadcloth shirt
waist, $1.00. Total cost: $25.85.
The trench coat of today sells
for $4.95, and if the yellow slicker
were replaced by a trench coat j
(which, by the way, is as correct
and dashing as anything on the
market), Miss Chase’s total would
be reduced to $23.85. Her whole
ensemble, however, would be a
hundred per cent smarter.
And then there is the matter of
(he bouffant taffeta. Two years'
ago. which is post-depression, mind
you. it sold for around $45. After
having read Miss Chase's letter 1
dashed down town to look ai the
evening gowns at Deusmore and
Leonard's. I especially liked one
of a pebbly satin in bright gold
dinner ditoo o,r as an evening
gown (thus duo existence gown is
one which saves shekels). It was
cut on the bias, molding the figure
like a supple sheath, clinging until
it reached the knees and then fall
ing away in a full swirl. When
worn as a dinner frotfk, the shoul
ders are covered with a short
cape which is banded with luxur
ious grey fox crossing under the
bodice to tie in the back. It has
that metallic sheen, so greatly de
sired, and is priced at $22.50 .
That we spend less for clothes
now than we did in pre-depression
days, and still manage to wear -
them and choose them as if they
really were "creations,” will be
realized when you consider that :
the buying power of the dollar has
increased only 33 1-3 per cent
since 1929.
Put on a bold front and look as
if you had a million dollars in gov
ernment bonds . . . thus the watch
word for today.

Godfrey Has Football Ideas
To the Editor of the Emerald:
In your paper issued Tuesday
morning, October 18, I find a story
on page one in the lower right
hand corner which deals with foot
ball results. After pointing out
the teams which have assumed a
commanding lead in the percent
age column, the story states, “The
Bruins found themselves on top
of the heap after a stunning 12
to 7 upset of Oregon at Portland.
A 77-yard run by “Pants” Live
say, Bruin halfback, after catch
ing a pass thrown from behind
his goal line, gave the Uclas vic
tory in the last 10 seconds of play.
THE DEFEAT ELIMINATES
OREGON FROM THE CONFER
ENCE RACE.
I can’t quite agree with the
learned compiler of the football
statistics for the Daily Emerald.
The Webfoots still have a chance
to win the Pacific coast gonfalon
this season, although the loss will
no doubt prevent them from being
national contenders.
Figure it this way:
Cal.2 2 1 .500
U. C. L. A.2 3 0 .400
* Montana is left off the sched
ule t» facilitate prognostication.
How it's done:
Oregon wins the rest of its
games, including U. S. C. W. S. C.
beats Idaho. Wash., and U. C. L.
A. LT. S. C. beats Washington.
Ties Cal. and loses to Oregon.

If you think Oregon has no
:hance for the title remember that
itrange things have happened this
fear in the sports world. Who
vould have guessed that the Port
and baseball team would win a
jennant for the first time in 18
fears? Who would have guessed
hat Bates would hold Yale score
ess and gain a tie ? And also that
jame in Portland indicates that
he Webfoots are in for some pe
:uliar football during the present
leason.
After thinking it over I have
•eached the conclusion that the
Editor of the Emerald will be re
varded with three passes to the
Colonial theatre if I fail in this
frediction. If you can’t use passes
: will make it a milk-shake at the
iinish of the football year.
Sincerely,

S' Bystander
By KIRKE SIMPSON
WfASHINGTON, D. C., Oct. 21—
** (API—To those who like
political news and views in large
loses, the night of October 4,
L932, must have been a red let
:er date.
During that night and with
jither national or regional hook
jps to help them, the three major
figures of the presidential cam
paign, President Hoover, Gover
lor Roosevelt and former Gover
lor A1 Smith, were all in platform
iction.
In addition, Secretary Mills, big
jratorical gun of the Republican
forces, was also doing business.
East, far west and farm belt, the
political welkin was given such a
simultaneous, nation-wide ringing
is it rarely gets.
The Bystander observed that
lext morning’s big papers carried
i page and a half of Hoover’s text,
i quarter page each of Roosevelt
ind Smith and a half page of
Mills.
That is quite a job for even the
nost enthusiastic political news
ievotee to digest at one sitting.
Fet, for New Yorkers particularly,
:here was more than that, much
nore, to run over.
Pages of proceedings of the si
multaneous Democratic and Re
aublican state conventions and the
acceptance speeches of both New
fork gubernatorial nominees
:laimed a share of attention.
Few would challenge the conclu
sion that President Hoover’s first
iddress of the campaign, saving
anly his acceptance speech, took
first rank for general interest.
Mr. Hoover himself must have
felt that way about it. His Des
Moines speech required just about
a. dozen columns of close newspa
per print for publication. Very
rarely in modern electioneering
Joes any speech run to that
length.
* * *
Another factor was that the
Roosevelt and Smith bits were af
ter the fact, so far as political sig
nificances in New York went.
Their joint fight for nomination of
Lieutenant Governor Lehman to
succeed Governor Roosevelt was
already won.
What was»left was curiosity as
to the extent to which a Smith
Roosevelt rapprochement for pres
idential campaign purposes would
be disclosed in what they said.
Coming down to attempting at
this distance from election day to
gauge the effect on the electoral
outcome of these simultaneous Re
publican and Democratic excur
sions and alarums, this can be
said.
The Roosevelt-Smith re-alliance
produced immediate, concrete re
sults in the form of the nomina
tion of their man by acclamation.
That would seem to imply ultimate
intra-party harmony in a state
that will cast 47 electoral votes to
a degree that Democratic chief
tains must regard as brightening
their hopes of polling those votes
for candidates Roosevelt and Gar
ner.

Ked-Heuded Woman
Yup — they’re different! Jean
Harlow is, at any rate. This par
ticular red-headed woman does a
higher sixth avenue—across the'
tracks femme with an appealing
naturalness. Whether such a char
acteristic display comes under the
heading of acting. I'm not pre
pared to say. It was so entirely
easy for her.
"Bee-ul!" and here comes Bill—-I
and “Cha-rr-ley:”, and here comes
Charlie. (This is not a song, i j
It's Miss Jean Harlow ("andi

Movie Crazy
Tonight is the last night for
Harold Lloyd. Four days here i3
tantamount to two weeks at the
Paramount. It’s been running to
capacity for the full four days—
and judging from audience reac

Tomorrow comes Gebrge Arlis3
in another of his Warner Brother
releases, "A Successful Calamity,"
in which this old maestro of the
stage and screen does another
American millionaire, this time de
luding his friends anent the stock
debacle. There was a stock
crs^Li. you know—the pictures
keep coming.
