The Oregon Daily Emerald, official student publication of the University of Oregon, Eugene, issued daily except Sunday and Monday during the college year. Entered in the postoffice at Eugene, Oregon, as second-class matter. Subscription rates, 42.50 a yeur. The Emerald’s Platform for Oregon THESE are the conutructive development*) which the Emerald hopes to institute and help maintain at the University ot Oregon : 1. Advance educational ideals. 2. Promote intellectual achievements. 3. Reorganize the student government structure. (a) Establish a student parliament in an advisory capacity, (b) Establish a faculty legislative committee. 4. Advocate a well-balanced athletic program. 5. Promote minor sports. 6. Subordinate extra-curricular activities to academic attain ments. 7. Maintain the Emerald on its present status as a representa tive college daily. SOMETHING TO ABANDON WITH PLEASURE IN A MOMENT of optimism we will venture to predict that we are leaving that adolescent con dition of unnecessary hysteria, known commonly as the “rah-rah spirit,” behind us. If such is true, as we pray it is, we should act immediately to sec that pigging regulations, freshman caps and similar childish nuisances are abandoned along with the era that fostered and established them. Freshman caps are trivial and hardly merit even a suggestion to discard them. However, they have been enshrined and hallowed to such a ridiculous degree that numerous students and laymen regard them as symbols of the state university of Oregon. This condition never should exist and we trust that those in authority will prevent it scontinuance. Even less can be said in defense of the “unwrit ten law” which prohibits a college man, accom panied by a co-ed, from attending an athletic con test without receiving a minimum of pleasure and suffering a* maximum of humiliation. It is ridicu lous in the extreme to picture such an occurrence as a “grave and malicious offense against Oregon traditions." If a student wants to take a female acquaintance to a basketball game, it is nobody's business except his own and the girl's. Surely it is no affair of the mob that sits back of the bench and sails paper “airplanes” onto the court to make its personnel conspicuous. It also is glaringly noticeable that the booing, roughhousing and other undesirable contributions to our athletic spectacles come from the rooting sec tion, if such it can be called. No one, unless he b>‘ an isolated exception, is going to make a fool of himself in public if he is with a companion of the fairer sex. We are certain of that. Tlie traditions council meets today. For what purpose, we do not know. Our faith in its personnel will increase prodigously if it elevates University lore to a higher level by eliminating the pathetic lemnar.ts of a bygone past which still pass for tra ditions on this campus. More than six years ago Brown university abol ished freshman caps, along with similarly childish relic . Questioned by the press, the president of Brown said: “Colleges to which we look up aban doned the freshman cap long ago. Colleges on which we look down are still sanctioning it." His reply, pertaining to all needless uud silly customs, speaks volumes. MIC. IST1NKIC SHOU.I) BK t'ONMDKUKl) TT WOULD NOT be surprising if the highly cum petent Air. Pecarovich of Gonzaga were named football coach at Oregon State to replace Paul Schissler, but we hope the athletic authorities at Corvallis give serious consideration to Alonzo Stiner. Schissler's assistant for so many years. We base this hope not on any knowledge of ath letics and football technique, for such we do not have, but rather on the fact that Air. Stiner has served Oregon Stute faithfully for so many years. If the Orange authorities permit themselves to be carried away by outside influences and name a coach without considering Alonzo stiner, it will give athletics at Corvallis a slap they cannot well sustain. Thera uuiot be a premium on loug and iaithlul service. When a man has been an efficient em- | ployee as has Mr. Stiner, the least he is deserving . of is serious consideration when there is an oppor-1 tunity for advancement. A junior clerk in a law firm hopes to see his name on frosted doors some i day. A newspaper reporter hopes to become an editor. An interne looks forward to the day when he will be a practicing physician. And—an assis tant football coach awaits the time when he will be placed in supreme command. Let us hope that Oregon State does not over look the man who has been a follower so long. He deserves an opportunity to become a leader. We know nothing of Mr. Stiner’s coaching ability. All we know is that he merits consideration. Probably Mr. Pecarovich, whom we believe to be a potenti ally great coach, will land the post. But Mr. Stiner should be considered. Some of America’s greatest coaches have been promoted from lower staff jobs to the head post. Among that group is Doc Spears, ex-Oregon, who jumped from freshman coach to head coach at Dartmouth when he was 22 years old. WARI'ED REASONING 'T'WO CHOICE examples of the warped and un grounded reasoning students will have to con tend with when they take their places in the busi ness ana political world after graduation are to be found in the accounts of last week's city council meeting in Portland. It is just such reasoning on the part of social or political leaders that our more liberal professors are striving to teach us to guard against. In the argument over repeal of the Portland prohibition ordinance, one church leader said that liquor broke up homes and damaged the well-being of the community. This statement is not contested. But its use as a reason for not repealing the pro hibition ordinance is a flagrant disregard for the facts. Under the present ordinance any variety of liquor could be obtained within a few blocks of the council chambers. And this liquor would be just as quick to break up homes as the kind sold before the ordinance was passed or after it was repealed. The other example comes from a leader of the Portland Presbytery. It is, as quoted in the Ore gonian: “He was against repeal because he knew what liquor has done to the working man, and that he will not ask the parents of Oregon boys to send their boys to the citizens’ military training camp at Vancouver this summer because of the repeal of the ordinance there.” * This completely overlooks the fact that the Ore gon boys, if they want it, undoubtedly can get more, cheaper, and better, or worse if you prefer it, liquor in their home communities. These two statements would be pathetic and laughable if they did not come from leaders in the community. It is on the basis of arguments such as these that the councilmen are supposed to make intelligent decisions. Students who were such “babes in the woods” as to be taken by similar statements recently re ceived heavy penalties in final examinations in eco nomics. The question is: “Will they be taken in by such arguments after they graduate?” The number of pupils enrolled for each teacher in the public schools of the country decreased from 32.8 in 1920 to 30.5 in 1930. Sales of 5 and 10-cent package candy amounted to more than 53 million pounds last year, repre senting a slight gain. Every member of an Atlanta Boy Scout troop appeared before the court of honor for advance ment the same night. The Pensacola, Florida, chamber of commerce has functioned continuously since 1887. Heart attacks caused the deaths of three deer hunters in Michigan this season. Contemporary —Opinion= Another Lowell Achievement T TPON the very eve of his retirement as president ^ of Harvard university, Dr. Abbott Lawrence Lowell lias once more demonstrated that time has not withered his aggressiveness on behalf of the humanities nor custom staled his executive ingenu ity. With that singular pioneering liberality which has made innovation and fresh endeavor synony mous witli the name uf the most traditionally con servative university in the land, Dr. Lowell has now instituted new facilities at Cambridge for research in the field which may with real propriety be termed "higher education.” His foundation of a Society of Fellows at Harvard, its liberal endowment, rumored to be at his own expense, and the throwing open to the members of the society of every research facil ity of the institution are an authentic gesture to-1 ward creative enterprise and will constitute one! more valuable souvenir of Dr. Lowell’s executive: years. At no other American educational institution1 lias any body of creative scholars been evolved similar to that brought into being by Dr. Lowell, j The closest extant approach to the Harvard plan is Ail Souls’ college at Trinity, Cambridge, whose members have contributed more than one-half of the British winners of the Nobel prizes to date. With the proper atmosphere already established at Cambridge on t lie Charles by tlie successful functioning of the house plan there would seem to be no good reason why the prestige of the body of British scholars should not be rivaled by the for-! lunate beneficiaries of the Harvard endowment. To those mistrustful of the Innovation the house plan itself will serve as a very effective assurance of Dr. Lowell's capacity for directing the future of his university. Whether or not the best of tHe present genera tion of young scholars emerging from our colleges and universities will be willing to devote them selves to the sciences and humanities without the ultimate goal of a doctorate or other higher degree . will be shown, of course, by time alone. It is the “stranglehold of the Ph D." that Dr. Lowell’s Soci ety of Fellows is attempting to loosen. Scholar ship for the sake of scholarship alone should appeal to those to whom the lamp of learning is a more alluring goal than ermine and velvet, or even the doctorate from the ancient University of Paris, which Dr. Lowell himself hold', hoaon. cau.a.— • ..c>v \orh Herald Tribune _;_> The Eclipse Passes - - By KEN FERGUSON I - -i ____ A Message to Garcia This is one of a series of articles to which outstanding members of Oregon's higher educational system are contributing. Another will be published in the next issue of the Emerald. By JOHN L. CASTEEL (Head of the Speech Division) TC7ITHIN three days after this ™ term had opened, three stu dents came to ask me the same question: “Tell me, what is the use in a young fellow going to school any more?” It makes a difference, of course, who it is that asks that kind of a question. For some students the answer at any time might have been, “No use at all.” But this is not the answer these students sought or deserved; and it is not an adequate answer for many oth er students, who, in conversation, in discussion, or in their own thoughts, are asking the same question. Undoubtedly, as these questions imply, our estimate of the useful ness of university training has forced to undergo some revision in these hard times. For every stu dent in whose mind this necessity has become articulate, there are many more in whom a sense of confusion or frustration of pur pose is making itself felt. What significance is to be given to this stir of uncertainty, and this shak ing of confidence? jfc )k The value of college training has been urged upon most of us as be ing one of two kinds: the cultural value or the vocational value. We have accepted the usual faith that education gives us the power and the skill needed to better the con dition of our lives. Hamlin Gar land records, in one of his books of literary reminiscences, his impres sion of a commencement audience he addressed at the University of South Dakota. Before him were gathered the parents of the grad uating class, and in their faces he observed the marks of toil, com monplace living, and sacrifice they had undergone in order that their children might not have to work as hard, and might get more out of life than they had been able to do. The commencement of almost any of our universities anywhere witnesses this same traditional as piration in both the older and the newer generations. But does education promise any longer a realization of these hopes? In the minds of many stu dents it seems possibly true that education does not. Neither cul turally or vocationally, they say, can a college education be entered as an indubitable asset. The fruits of cultural pursuits, the quicken ing of our powers of appreciation, the sense of direction in the af fairs of life given by knowledge and by the brightening contacts with the sciences and with letters, may give pleasure, zest, and se renity to life in times when we can be sure of sustaining ourselves in a material environment that af fords us security, leisure, and an opportunity to exercise our tastes and powers. But the prospect of our being forced to return to a standard of living that affords no such assurance and comfort may turn our tastes and insights we de velop iu our cultural pursuits into a source of sordid discontent. "Im-| agine me reading Shakespeare in my home town.” said one student, with risiug inflection. V $ ♦ And, they go on. our vocational preparation stands us iu little bet ter stead We Uad conic to believe that the trained individual would' be the man or woman to succeed in the competition for position and income. Our vocational ad’dsers talked to us of the importance of finding a special field for our ef forts, and of thoroughly training ourselves for its pursuit,—of be ing sure that we were fitting "square pegs into square holes.” With what result? Every day we hear or read of the number of men and women, who, in spite of thor ough preparation for their work, have nothing to do and no pros pect of getting anything,—who are polished pegs who can find neither round or square holes into which they can fit themselves. Tell us, | what is the use of going to school any more ? It may be that an improvement in the general weirare or tne coun try, (I will not risk my neck by saying, “a return of prosperity”), will eventually restore to us our faith in our educational bootstraps, as it may restore to the troubled hearts of some people their faith in our economic system generally. I have no way of knowing whether such an eventuality is probable or desirable. Even Technocracy has not saved us yet, if we except those few forward-looking students who have adopted the principle of the two-hour day and the five-day week. Eventually, unless our so ciety slips into a permanent retro gression, we will have need of men and women with fine cultural per ceptions and of highly trained abil ities. * * 'Jfi But the immediate future is our vivid distress. There does not seem to be much consolation in an answer that says to these stu dents’ questions, ‘‘Wait five years. Maybe you'll be getting on better then.” What answer should be given to their question ? I am not ready to LETTERS to the EDITOR All “Letters to the Editor’1 must bear either the signature or initials of the tenter, the former briny preferred. Because of space limitations, the editor reserves the right to withhold such communications as he sees fit. All letters shuidd be concise and to the point. The editor of the Emerald solicits opinions and constructive criticism from the members of the student body. Opposing Dr. Smith To the Editor of the Emerald: Sir: As a student interested in the later development of the question of Philippine indepen dence, I read with a great deal of gusto the gloomy outlook of an independent Philippine common wealth which Dr. Warren D. Smith has pictured through the columns of a Eugene paper. I have a great respect for the abil ity of the professor, and have no doubts of his sincerity, but I re gret that I cannot share whole heartedly with the position he as sumes. That the law was not con ceived of the spirit of altruism, I need not recount. It is with re grets that these selfish economic interests were involved, but I de light in the fact that these so called “selfish" interests have made it possible the fulfillment of a "pledge," nobly conceived and nobly given by the American people to the people of the Philip pines. May I say with emphasis that the universal desire of the Fili pinos for liberty is not borne of any ingratitude to the benevolence! of the people of the United States., Rather, it is the logical conclu sion of the liberay territorial pol-! icy which the United States lias pursued. The people of the Philip-i pines would be untrue to the hope reposed upon them by the people] of the United States if they did not aspire for the boon which is the gift to all liberty-loving people. I am not unaware of the eco nomic and political hazards that an independent Philippine com monwealth has to encounter. They are multitudinous and are of the first magnitude, but hazardous as tha venture may seem to be, it is my conviction that the American people, nay more, the Filipino the political bonds which has kept them together for the last 3t years shall be completely severed. By the enactment of the Philip pine independence bill into law. the United States has fulfilled a prom ise solemnly made, and means the satisfaction of the highest national aspiration of the Filipino people. It remove:- the un- ertaiitty with! its benumbing effects upon our economic progress. It will place the instruments of our economic salvation in «our hands. It will make for a better orientation in our social and economic develop ment, for it will enable us to have a definite type of citizenship which are denied to us under a de pendent state. It will release our intellectual and spiritual powers for creative achievement. Time and space does not allow a discussion of the economic and international complication of the subject. Suffice it to say that there need not be no fear in these matters. The Philippines, in the opinion of many individuals, is not any more secure as a dependency of the United States than as an in dependent natoin. Furthermore, to wait until the Orient will have be come stable may be waiting a hundred years from now. A Japan ese “menace” may be disposed of as a “bugaboo,” a “scarecrow” formulated by Wall Street to de feat any independence concession. The present economic and social progress of the Philippines during the past three decades has aroused favorable comments even among critical observers. The Philippines has a balanced budget, a low bonded indebtedness, and adequate transportation system, a good sys tem of education, etc., and it is reasonable to assume that the sta bility of the government can be maintained even in the early and trying moments of an independent existence. The Filipinos may be forced to forego some of their present privileges, but that will only be temporary. Furthermore, a sacrifice of that character is, and always will be a concommitam result of liberty. I reiterate to say that there is no more opportune moment for the granting of Philippine indepen dence than the present. To have waited longer would have meant exclusion or limitation of Philip pine products coming into the United States, the presence of the American flag over Philippine soil notwithstanding. That would not have been fair: nay more, it would have defeated the very policy enunciated by President McKinley that “the Philippines are ours 50! to exploit, but to develop. . . .'* —Florendo Maugavil. say, even at the risk of putting myself in that well-known class of persons who can raise more ques tions than a wise man can answer. This much might be said, however: A re-evaluation of our university education would seem to be a prob lem for our best thinking and dis cussion. It has been a few years, at least, since students and facul ty on the campus have set down to make such an estimate; and no such effort has been tried since the depression has forced a new estimate of our earlier viws. In times when money is dear, talk is still cheap, and purposive exchange of ideas may be still invaluable. Is it possible that some plan for a full conference or discussion over this problem on the campus might bring to the students a surer sense of the use of education in strength ening us to meet just such condi tions as we now face, and that jt might give both students and fac ulty less of a feeling of frustration and more of an attitude of ulti mate direction than that which now seems, in the minds of some, to be abroad? promenade by carol hurlburt HPHE wittiest take-off of the col A lege student which it has been my privilege to see is given by Lance Hart, debonair artist, in two harmless looking but telling and altogether charming little wa water-color sketches of the co-ed and her masculine contemporary. Harmless looking, they may be, but they are almost too true for decency’s sweet sake. * * £ Joe College has his chin sunk down on his chest, his shoulders slouched, his elbows turned in, his hands thrust nonchalantly in his pockets.

A feminine young mor sel, but what price femininity? * * * Most women place a premium upon intense femininity, and some endeavor to achieve it with the same provocative aids which Mr. Hart has so aptly caught. These “aids”, however, are not at all apropros for campus wear. The Eugene campus is more like the wide open country than a pent house apartment, and woman, as man likes her in winter clothes pour le pays, is adequately de scribed in an article by Taylor Scott Hardin, Vogue for January 1, 1932. * * * Don't wear high heels, Mr. Har din admonishes.

Turtle or crew-necked sweaters I are the warmest and the smartest. Hats should be of felt of jersey, either with small brims or of the turban family. Gloves should be sturdy, of knit ted string or hand-stitched pig skin. Don't wear silk stockings, rather ho3e of wool, silk and wool, or of lisle. Don't wear delicate lingerie, but underclothing of knit ted lisle, plain crepe-de-chine, or handkerchief linen. Wear a loose, full-skirted coat of tweed or rough cloth or else wear a polo coat. “Don't wear any jewelry—ex cept, if you like, an inoffensive wrist-watch. "Don't wear any more make-up than you can possibly get along without. It's best to have none at all. We like your wind-stung cheeks. We like your cold eyes.

Seems the head of the multi graphing department, a man named Domas, Isaiah Domas, who has come in for mention before, helps run the cooperative farm out by Coburg. Quite a modern ranch, too. Run on the share plan, that is, all the workingmen own shares of the farm and work for the common good, or something. Well, Mr. Domas and some oth er of the farm people came in the other day to explain their project before a discussion group at a down-town church. It was all very interesting and everybody had a good time until a couple of mem bers of the D. A. R. got sore. Thought the whole business was communistic and radical and, well you know . . .
