WE ARE HONORED TODAY
OUR BEST friends are our guests today. Let ua
treat them as such. We of Oregon should feel
highly honored to have in our midst the men who
have made our college educations a reality.
This is one day out of many. It is the day on
which we pay tribute and attention to our fathers.
There is no Oregon institution finer than this one.
It is commendable and appropriate that there
should be 24 hours set aside out of every year for
the honoring of the Dads of Oregon.
Your father and the other fellow's father have
made this University possible. They have made
our educations possible. They are the backbone of
the commonwealth, the slim and substance of our
state. We should go out of our way to honor them
today. The fellow who will not stray from the
beaten path to make things a bit easier for his own
or someone else's father has no business among us.
It is our duty and obligation to make this sixth
annual Dad's day an enjoyable one. It should be
an occasion the dads will remember as a memor
able episode. Our dads should be happy to come
here and reluctant to leave here.
Dads of Oregon, the Emerald takes this oppor
tunity to welcome you upon behalf of the students
of the University.
THE ANNUAL HIKE
BY THE time this paper goes to press the annual
bunion derby will be over, or just about over
at least, it has been known to drag on until way
past the midnight hour.
Periodically following the event there arises a
long wail of anguish on the campus. The Emerald
will be besieged with letters concerning the annual
practice. Charges that it is only a minor walkathon
have been hurled every year.
Houses insist that all their members go. The
affiliates are usually strong in their voiced objec
tions but always attend, the mortality rate along
the way being surprisingly small. That the annual
affair is really popular is attested by the fact that
the independent men, with no coercion, are willing
to make the 10-mile trek. Without student cars
the strain will be greater than usual. A hike from
the Tri-Delt house to the Alpha Phi is no small
thing.
The curiosity to see the new freshmen, to find
out just exactly whom some house has pledged, to
inaugurate a new pigging campaign, are all motives
for attending the affair.
Several times the Interfraternity council and
Fanhellenic have voted on the abandonment of open
house. There has been some grumbling in these
bodies each year, but it has never failed to pass
by large majorities. The event is of long tradition,
and it is our guess that it will be with us for a long
time to come.
NO NEED TO BE SELFISH
WE HAVE been noticing the large number of
outsiders who have been using the facilities
of our library recently.
Here is an old man with tattered clothes brows
ing over the Encyclopedia Brittanica; here is a
white-haired, bewhiskered individual studying the
“New Republic”; over there in the card-index cor
ner is an elderly lady, who distinguishes herself as
a foreigner by her accent, who is trying to locate j
Richard Halliburton’s “New Worlds to Conquer”;
and at the other side of the room a young man in
overalls is reading “New Light on the Ancient
Sumerian Civilization” in the Illustrated London
News.
Some of these people, men especially, are a part
of the army of 12,000,000 unemployed. Reading
gives them something to pass away the time. We
believe they are making very valuable use of time
that might be otherwise wasted.
Although the library does not have funds to buy j
as many books and magazines as formerly, there is
a vast number of volumes that the public might
as well use, and the current magazines might easily
be read by townspeople or even transients as long
as students are not deprived of the privilege.
A FEW IDLE CONJECTURES
REPEAL of the prohibition amendment won 1,189
to 772 over maintenance of the law in a straw
poll conducted at the University of Washington
Tuesday. And thus another group of the northern
state’s cjoming leaders express themselves.
This represents the opinion of approximately
half the students on the Seattle campus. Since it
is probable that a larger percentage of those favor
ing repeal than of those opposing it voted, the out
come can hardly be considered indicative of general
sentiment.
Statements of the grounds on which those who
favored repeal would be more interesting than the
ballot count.
Do they feel that since it is so easy to buy
liquor, persons desiring it should be able to get stuff
that is fit to drink?
Do they feel Lhat it would be better to repeal
the present law and then to pass one that would be
enforced?
Do they feel that the use of intoxicating liquors '
is a personal problem ?
Or did they vote that way because it is being j
done ?
The first reason would be given by many, for
there seems to be no curb on the supply of “varnish
remover” that students in a big city can purchase.
They feel that since minors can now get liquor, they
might have the privilege their elders once had of
buying good liquor.
Many of the older students would give the sec
ond reason, probably putting the restriction on
driving while intoxicated or making a disturbance.
Many of the older students, who themselves once
drank on occasion, but have since gone on the water
wagon, would probably actually favor an enforced
prohibition law.
A few still fail to see that the widespread use j
of automobiles has failed to make the problem of
intoxication one of the whole community and not !
one of the individual or family alone. The days j
when the intoxicated man could be loaded in the
buggy and the horse turned loose to take him home ,
are gone. Of course, taxi drivers are paid to stay !
sober.
Those who voted for the fourth reason would
not admit it.
Wonder if that fellow Bellinger in Gonzaga’s
lineup today is our own Jack Bellinger incognito?

Clip and memorize these sure
fire answers to every one of dad’s
questions.
(1) “Yes, I am a bit thinner.
The doctor says I've been studying
too much.”
(2) "No! Those dice belong to
my room-mate.”
(3) "This desk is usually lined
with books. I put ’em away this
morning so the room wouldn’t
look so messy when you came.”
(4) "Nicotine stains on my fin
gers ? I should say not. I’ve been
so interested in my chemistry labs
that I've been a bit careless with
acid.”
(5) “Girl on tne pnone: nu,
that was the dean calling to con
gratulate me on the paper I wrote
last week.”
(6) “Oh, you mean those beer
bottles in the closet. We always
keep a few on hand to hold candles
when the lights go out on us.”
(7) “The reason I need an ex
tra ten dollars this month is that
I've got to pay for my Emerald
subscription, get a ticket for the
A. S. U. O. concert series, and
buy myself a seat in the student
parliament.”
The fine emotions of Dad's day
require a little lyrical expression:
Good-bye, dad, I’m glad you came.
I hope that you enjoyed the game.
I trust you’ve digested fraternity
food,
And that you have forgiven
The boys who were rude.

Plans Announced
For Annual Dance
The annual Homecoming dance
will be held here November 5 at
McArthur court. Plans for the
event were announced yesterday
by Gordon Day, general chairman.
The dance will start at 9 o’clock,
and dress will be informal.
The following committee was
appointed by Day to assist him in
preparing for the event: decora
tions and floor, Corwin Calavan;
patrons and patronesses, Helen
Binford; publicity, Cynthia Lilje
qvist, Roger Bailey; refreshments,
Helen Stinger; program and tick
ets, Esther Hayden; ticket sale, ■
Robert Morden; secretary, Kay!
Felter.
The tickets will be free to all |
alumni who have paid up on their
alumni taxes. Otherwise the
charge per couple will be 75 cents.
This is a 25 cent cut from last
year.
The fact that the current fight
to save the school will bring an
unprecedented number of alumni
here will assure the dance of at
least financial success.

A Challenge to
OREGON Alumni
The Zorn-Macpherson School Juggling Scheme, under the
guise of economy and consolidation, proposes costly ex
pansion and destruction of Oregon’s system of higher
education. Here is your opportunity to serve the tax
payers of Oregon and the University, in presenting the
TRUE PICTURE of this EXTRAVAGANT PROPOSAL.
These Facts:
The following facts should be emphasized to every voter
—this Bill ACTUALLY—
DOES NOT REDUCE BY A SINGLE PENNY the
basic. State tax you now pay for higher education.
ESTABLISHES 4 NEW SCHOOLS, at Ashland, La
Grande, Eugene, and Salem.
CREATES 2 NEW TYPES OF SCHOOLS—Junior
Colleges and Teachers’ College, of questionable
value to Oregon.
ESTABLISHES STATE SUPPORT for Junior Col
leges in every Oregon city or town.
JUNKS AND DISCARDS OVER $4,000,000.00 of
taxpayer-owner buildings and land.
NECESSITATES NEW - BUILDING PROGRAM
and triples costly equipment now at University or
State College.
INCREASES INSTRUCTION COSTS 25% lor
University and Oregon State students.
DECREASES WORKING STUDENTS’. CHANCES
40%, depriving hundreds of an opportunity for
higher education.
WRECKS PRESENT UNIFICATION PLAN—
This plan is saving taxpayers $900,000.00 per year
compared with previous costs for State schools.
DEPRIVES OREGON STATE COLLEGE of its
high rank as a technical school by submerging of
agricultural courses.
