The Emerald’s Creed for Oregon
11 ... . There Is always the human temptation to
forget that the erection of buildings, the formulation of
new curricula, the expansion of departments, the crea
tion of now functions, and similar routine duties of
the administration are but means to an end. There is
always a glowing sense of satisfaction in the natural
impulse for expansion. This frequently lends to regard
ing achievements as ends in themselves, whereas the
truth is that these various appearances of growth and
achievement can be justified only in so far as they
make substantial contribution to the ultimate objec
tives of education .... providing adequate spiritual
and intellectual training for youth of today—the citi
zenship of tomorrow. ...
'*.... The University should be a place where
classroom experiences and faculty contacts should stimu
late and train youth for the most effective use of all
the resources with which nature has endowed them. Dif
ficult and challenging problems, typical of the life
and world in which they are to live, must he given
them to solve. They must be taught under the expert
supervision of instructors to approach the solution of
these problems in a workmanlike way, with u dis
ciplined intellect, with a reasonable command of the
techniques that i re involved, with a high sense of in
tellectual adventure, and with a genuine devotion to the
ideals of intellectual integrity. . . —From tho^Biennial
Report of the University of Oregon for 1931-82.
The American people cannot be too careful in
guarding the freedom of speech and of the press
against curtailment as to the discussion of public
affairs and the character and conduct of public
men. —Carl Schurs.
ATHLETIC PRIVILEGES FOR ALL
ONE OF the amendments submitted to the A. S.
U. O. constitution yesterday would place the
dean of the school of physical education, or a repre
sentative appointed by him, on the athletic com
mittee. The value of such a proposal cannot be
questioned. Although all the amendments are valid
and should be passed at the coming elections, tiris
one stands forth from the others in the potential
advantages and possible benefits it offers.
There has been no condition quite so consistently
deplored here as the fact that athletics and sports
at the University of Oregon seem to be for a privi
leged few instead of the great majority. Minor
sports are virtually non-existent; many of the foot
ball players have been helped and aided with
commonwealth scholarships, thus excluding tlie less
proficient athletes from varsity participation.
There is no use fooling ourselves about the latter.
It is as true as the day is long. It represents a
situation common in many American colleges. We
don't ask that anything be done about it. We mere
ly urge that a more extensive program for the not
Bo-robust students be installed to make the ar
rangement equitable.
We must make athletics for all, not for a few.
There should be intercollegiate competition in al
most all activities. There is just as much reason
in having tennis for a dozen 165-pounders as there
is in having varsity football for three dozen 200
punnders. Of course, football is a money-making
sport. But we must not permit the latter to influ
ence the situation too considerably. That would
place the dollar stump on athletics here, which is
what we must seek to avoid. Amateur athletics
should be what the name implies, most of all at a
state university, where education is the paramount
purpose of attendance.
S THE first step in the attainment of a hap
* pier athletic situation, we see no more saga
cious move than establishing the school of physical
education definitely on the athletic committee. Why
it has been omitted from the personnel in the past
is difficult to determine. Close cooperation between
the departments of intercollegiate athletics and
physical education is necessary to any well-balanced
athletic program. The students arc the benefici
aries of such a program, so there should lie no hesi
tancy in voting unanimously in favor of the amend*
In our opinion, the present intramural sports
program, although far better than it ever was
before, still is not adequate. To begin with, it
should be helped along with a complete minor
sports program, one which includes at least golf,
tennis, boxing, wrestling and swimming. There i.>
no reason why student-, talented ui those activities
»
ments.
should not have an opportunity to take part in
intercollegiate competition. They pay equal A. S.
U. O. dues with those skilled in other particular
sports.' We hope the 1933-34 school year will be
characterized by the inauguration of a detailed and
complete minor sports program.
But there should be something else. Intramural
competition should be extended to give a fair
chance to the needy student who has not the
finances necessary to membership in a Greek-letter
organization or quarters in the dormitory, the stu
dent who must scrape by on what struggling par
ents can spare and who would be benefited beyond
all doubt by the Emerald plan for low-cost living
for needy students.
NOT EVERY independent can earn a place on
the Yeomen's skilled teams; thus there is a
considerable number of students who must watch
from the outside. And so, following the trail
blazed recently by Charles F. Frankland, new and
hustling director of athletics at the University of
Washington, we urge the establishment of sports
clubs, the forming of class teams and the holding
of all-school tournaments in such activities as de
cathlon, fencing, tennis, horseshoes, golf, play
ground ball, etc.
Class teams, divided into "A” and “B” groups
according to ability, would give everyone an op
portunity to participate, and would be a welcome
addition to the splendid inter-organization program
now in process at the men’s gymnasium. All the
students, from the round-shouldered scholar who
struggles manfully to keep himself in the school to
the rich-man’s son in his big automobile, could
compete.
There would be three distinct divisions. Inter
collegiate minor sport varsity competition for the
most talented in the various activities; the “A”
class leagues for the next in line, and the “B”
class leagues for the "dubs” and those not so for
tunate physically as their contemporaries. Encour
aging strides towards this Utopia already have
been made in the extended intramural program
now under way and the recent formation of a "pay
your-own” golf team by a small clan of golfers.
But there is much room for improvement and
the three-way plan outlined above would go a long
way towards improving the situation. The pro
posal suggested herein would provide equal athletic
privileges for all. There was an old Dixie song
that used to ring out, “And Southern rights for
all!” Let us make "Equal athletic rights for all!”
our motto when we march to the polls Thursday
and give the school of physical education long
merited representation on the athletic committee.
BACKING THE DECISION
'T'O THE limit, we are behind Chairman Morse
-*-• and his fellow members on the judiciary com
mittee in their recent statement regarding the com
mittee's right to pass on reasons offered by the
executive council for the rejection of candidates for
A, S. U. O. posts. There should be some check
on ail government and the judiciary committee pro
vides that here in just the proper degree. Those
who doubt the wisdom of this power being held by
the judiciary committee should investigate the
check held by the U. S. supreme court on our
national government before they start any fault
finding with the judiciary committee.
To be sure, the judiciary committee has inter
preted the constitution liberally in making its
statement. But liberal interpretations arc gradu
ally replacing strict meanings in law and justice
throughout the nation. In this wise and skillful
decision wc see the fine hand and clear logic of
Wayne L. Morse, dean of the law school. A lib
eral in his interpretations, a master in his conclu
sions, Dean Morse typifies the law that is gaining
ever-increasing ground in the United States today.
His reasoning and judgments in this relatively in
significant matter read gratifyingly like those
handed down by the great liberals who sit on the
supreme court of this land.
From the same legal stamp that produced men
like Louis F. Brandeis, Bonjamin N. Cardozo, Har
lan Fisk Stone, and Oliver Wendel Holmes comes
Wayne L. Morse. Like they, he is liberal in his
interpretations, fair and equitable in his decisions.
We of the University should appreciate that we
have such a man to administer on our judiciary
committee. It is up to us to respect his decisions,
rather than question them. We know he is right
in this matter. Wc are sure the executive council
soon will be of the same conclusions. All thinking
students who have considered thoughtfully can
not help but agree with the dean and the other
committee members, Virgil Earl and Earl M. Pal
lett.
MORE FORUMS—
r k 'HE LARGE groups of students and towns
people which refused to be intrigued from the
Pacific forum round tables by the spring weather
should indicate to the forum's sponsors that interest
in Par Eastern problems is high.
The round table discussions have centered on
the religion of the Orient, economic geography of
the region, social and industrial revolution in
China, and the Sino-Japanese conflict. Students
have had ample opportunity to thrash out the
problems as they were presented by the faculty
leaders. Few questions were answered to the satis
faction of all, but many pertinent phases of the
different problems were brought out by the round
table method which was pursued.
It is to be expected that interest in the Pacific
area should be greater on the Pacific coast than
farther east. When University students flock to
discuss problems of this region three days during
spring term when the weather is at its balmiest
ami they know that there is no academic credit to
be given for attendance they must be actually in
terested.
The success of the first forum on Pacific af
fairs calls for the formation of plans for another
similar project to be held next year and every year
as long as the interest survives.
"A picture is worth ten thousand words" so
goes the old Chinese proverb. At the University of
Chicago, President Robert Maynard Hutchins is
attempting to find out if the Chinese were right,
with Chicago undergraduates scheduled to bear the
burden, if any. of the experiment.
Gov. David Shod/, of Florida announces the
state is going on a cash basis and tiiat state offi
cials will go unpaid when there is no money in the
trea-ury.

¥ IKE the Emerald’s advocacy of
a more extensive minor and

closer cooperation between the de

and intercollegiate athletics? If

interesting material in the follow

papers:

Present System of Intramural
Sports Offers Foundation for
Wider Participation
The present program of intra
mural athletics at the university
constitutes a sturdy foundation on
which the associated students and
the department of physical educa
tion can build a more comprehen
sive and thorough system of com
petitive competition among stu
dents. Completion of Edwards
field and the gymnasium for men
furnishes additional facilities
which only serve to make the mo
ment more opportune.
The present system has been
furtctioning under the combined
direction of the associated stu
dents and the department of phy
sical education since its institu
tion in 1924. Since that time, the
system has broadened its base
and encouraged the participation
of students, serving from 300 to
1,200 students a month.
A. S. U. C. coaches could serve
an important function in any ef
fort to broaden the program by
continuing their services in direct
ing and coaching competitors.
Such a scheme is successfully
used within limits under the pres
ent arrangement. An expansion of
this principle would contribute
greatly to the success of any pro
gram proposing a further expan
sion.
One underlying principle is im
portant. The objective of any such
system of athletics must neces
sarily aim at an ever-increasing
number of participants and to fur
nish to the student of average
physical ability an opportunity to
participate in competitive sports.
The present arrangement of in
tramural athletics furnishes a
sound base on which to build a
broader, more comprehensive pro
gram. Close cooperation of the
A. S. U. C. and the physical edu
cation department is essential to
the success of any such plan.
University of California Califor
nian.
Organization of sport clubs in a
new movement to expand the in- j
tramural sports program, and’
sponsorship of these clubs by the
men's physical education depart
ment are the latest developments
in the "Sports for Students" line
up advocated by Charles Frank
land, university director of ath
letics.
Every matt on the campus J
whether or not he is already af
filiated with a group, will have a
chance to enter competitive sports.
Informal competition of unorgan
ised groups is in progress every
afternoon, and the intramural di
vision ot the physical education
department will assist in arrang
ing these games when the students
make their desires known.
First steps in the formation of
teams from the various schools of
tiie university have already been
taken with the formation of the
engineering school playground ball
league.
All-university tournaments in
handball and fencing, annual
events open to all university stu
dents, ]are already in progress.
The all-U. track meet, for which
all men except letter winners in
track and members of the varsity
and freshman track teams will be
eligible, is scheduled for May 18
and 19, and horseshoe pitchers will
compete in singles’ tournament
from May 17 to 31.
“The facilities are down there at
the pavilion," said Frankland,
“and we expect hundreds more to
take advantage of them with the
expansion of the program.”
Any organization or group may
enter teams, according to Henry
M. Foster, director of the men's
physical education department.
“Independent men not affiliated
with independent sport clubs may
join clubs now organized or form
clubs of their own,” Foster said.—
University of Washington Daily.
Are Coaches People?
Or Haloed Personages?
Johnny Fallows, ex-Badger
track star, who has just completed
two years at Oxford, describes the
status of the English athletic
coach 'as being subordinate to the
student athletic dub that hires
him. He neither picks men for
meets and games, gives orders to
the boys, nor is accountable to the
school. He is accountable only to
the club. The tie-up between the
coach and the student athlete is
direct. The coach is an adviser,
not a producer of victories.
The American coach shudders
to contemplate his English col
league. The latter gets only a
small salary, has an outside busi
ness, and is interested in sports
for sports own sake. The Ameri
can coach conceives of himself as
a professional technician. He has
the business of producing winning
teams analyzed into a basic sci
ence. He must, for when he loses
his skill he loses his job. The
alumni see to it that he is fired.
The outcome is that the sporting
part of collegiate sport is removed.
In the end the prevalent type of
coach is a cross between an ath
letic mechanic and an animal
trainer.
The English coaching system is
preferable. It gives rise to none of
the abuses of our system. It de
emphasizes the coach and the star
and emphasizes the game. It
makes them people instead of
haloed personages.

If Jack Wants to Play,
Let Him Play
Charles Frankland opened his
sports - for - all' policy with an
nouncement yesterday of a plan
to make university athletic facili
ties accessible to every student,
through enlargement of the intra
mural program.
If the policy, is made effective
immediately he will have accomp
lished in a month what has re
mained undone for years because
the A. S. U. W. and university
physical education department
were separate rather than unified
under one head.
There are 5,500 students on the
campus. More than half of them
are men. Less than 600 of these
have regular competitive use of
the athletic plant in varsity and
freshman teams, including foot
ball, basketball, track, baseball,
tennis, crew, boxing, wrestling,
fencing, swimming and golf.
Fraternity men obtain periodic
use of the facilities during intra
mural league games. Independent
men can force their way into the
program but the procedure is so
unhandy that few care to Lake
advantage of the opportunity.
What the intramural program
needs is sponsorship of more
games between clubs, departments
and classes as well as between
fraternities; and an open door to
all students who want to partici
pate in organized competition.
When a student decides he wants
to “get into a game’’ it should be
possible for him to go to the ath
letic plant and get a ready wel
come at a regular “play hour.’’
He should be able to have the
competition he wants in basket
ball. track, boxing, or swimming
as well as in tenni sand gclf, the
two sports that already have the
“open door" policy.
These are the ideal conditions
toward which Mr. Frankland’s
policy points. — University of
Washington Daily.

Milking Himself Clear
To tlio liditor of tin' Hiiii'nild:
Dear Dick: There seems to b
a good deal of misunderstanding
among students and faculty rela
tive to the implications of the re
marks l made in yesterday’s A.
S. l\ O. assembly on the recent
ruling by the judiciary committee
that it had the power to determine
whether or not the executive coun
cil has "good and sufficient rea
sons" for rejecting recommenda
tions on appointments made to it
by the publications and the ath
letic committees.
The single important point that
1 wished to make was this: if. an
der our present student govern
ment set-up, a judiciary commit
tee made up of faculty and admin
istrative officers of the University
has the right to veto decisions of
the executive council on appoint
ment of publication officers and
athletic managers, then the sys
tem should be changed so that the
judiciary committee would not
have that power.
In my reference to the Emer
ald's contention that the judiciary
committee should have this power
and to the relationship between
the Emerald and the judiciary
committee, I certainly did not in
timate that there has been any
collusion between the judiciary
committee and the Emerald in this
respect. I acknowledged the val
uable service that the judiciary
committe§ has rendered in ruling
of points of law relative to the A.
S. U. O. constitution. I have all
respect for the work of Dean
Morse, Mr. Pallet t and Dean Earl
and would be the last to charge or
intimate that their ent decision
relative- to the appointment ol Ore
gana editor had been based on any
thing but honest and impartial le
gal interpretation.
On the other hand, I have every
respect for the abi'ity and probity
of the judges on the Oregon Su
preme court but if they had been
asked to make the decision in this ;
case I would have protested it on
the same grounds. For if our stu- j
dent government is to be a "stu
dent” government in any real j
sense, then the executive council 1
cannot be subject to the rulings of
a faculty and administrative com
mittee.
As an interpreter of points of
law in the A. S. U. O. constitution
the judiciary committee has per
formed and will continue to per
form a very valuable service. But
if the constitution is so worded
that the committee has the right
to question the "good and suffi
cient reasons” of the executive
council in matters of paramount
importance, then by all means the
constitution should be changed.
As the constitution stands, the
judiciary committee undoubtedly
has this power. Unless we want
to scrap what power remains with
the student government to regu
late its own appointments, the ju
diciary committee should be de
prived of that power as soon as
possible.
Very truly,
DAVE WILSON.
Assault and
Battery KS3,
In line with the scheduled waf
fle luncheon on Saturday we make
the following suggestions as to
equipment that the young waf
fleer should carry with him:
1. Cross-cut saw
2. Auger.
3. Chisel
4. Sulfuric acid *
5. Mining pick.
And remember, there is no tell
ing what the beginner may dis
cover in a waffle. When gold was
first discovered in a community
waffle breakfast at Sutter's hiill,
every waffle in the country was in
j demand. The novice will find that
: it pays best to work around the
edges before cutting into the hard
rock in the center—and remem
i ber, if you mix your syrup with
sulfuric acid it will help decom
I pose the waffle and facilitate the
mining process.
Rumor has it that Freddy Stan
j ley was seen out at the Country
club yesterday playing golf with a
bottle of beer under either arm and
a cheese sandwich in either hand.
