Peavy, president of Oregon State college, concerning honorary fratern ities on the State college campus have popped up from various fronts in the United States. The editors who have commented on the situa tion have, by and large, let their usually alert minds become muddled regarding the fraternity contro versy. To some writers there seems to be no dis tinction between a social fraternity and an honor ary fraternity. Consequently, when the news broke a short time ago that Greek letter fraternities such at Alpha Delta Phi and Psi Upsilan would no longer keep their charters as national social fraternities at Yale, that was construed to tie up with Presi dent Peavy’s remarks. The fact that social fraternities have apparently outlived their usefulness on some campi in Die east because of peculiar local conditions lias nothing to do with the problem at Oregon State. The Corvallis problem is a distinct one which is indicative of practically every institution in the country, not ex cepting the University of Oregon. The Cottage Grove Sentinel showed an editorial inability to keep from confusing the honorary phase from the eastern social discussion by speaking of President Peavy’s just stand in one breath and the Yale campus condition in the next with a blanket attack upon the entire “fraternity system" under the headline, “Fraternities Getting Theirs.” Even the Christian Science Monitor, ordinarily a journalistic model of the highest order, became, for the moment, confused, due perhaps to its prox imity to the rumpus prevalent in the east. For the sake of clarification, the Morning Ore gonian, in an editorial entitled "Honorary Fraterni ties” yesterday morning keenly interpreted Presi dent Peavy's remarks. Quoting from the Oregonian: The Christian Science Monitor, for whose accuracy of statement this newspaper has high regard, misinterpreted, we are sure, the state ment of President George W. Peavy of Oregon State college, when it said he has challenged "Greek letter fraternities at American colleges and universities to justify their existence.” President Peavy's language was not so inclu sive. The Oregon Stale college executive referred only to those honorary fraternities which thrive on every campus by electing students of high attainments to their memberships, lie ex pressed the point of view that the interests of some of them cease, after their memberships have been recruited. Yet he was careful not to make this criticism a blanket one. But he issued a challange to each of them to prove its exist ence by its works. This, of course, is reasonable. But President Peavy was not directing his attention to the social fraternities which dot the campuses of the great majority of our higher educational institutions. So there is no point in linking him with any discussion of fraternity life at Yale and Swarthmore, where Greek letter organizations purely social itt char acter are beginning to discontinue their activ ities, if not their immediate existence. Honorary fraternities, which pose as contributors to scholastic achievements, are not to bo confused with those which appeal solely to their mem bers' social desires. Honorary societies which emphasize scholarship and scholastic achieve ments in their rituals and iti their agenda should, as President Peavy assorts, live up to their professions. Many of them are proving their worth, but there ;ue some• to' whom the challeii6c ».> well directed. f Through the Rain RAIN slants down through the conifers making a ripping sound as the green needles cut into a fine spray that settles on the grass and walks. Rain hisses through the interstices of the green and spats in the puddles with a mischievous beat. Rain spangles the girls’ hair with tiny beads of silver, i Faces look fresh and healthy with the cool, moist sheen of rain over them. The rain has worked a resurrection; even the dead old bricks of Friendly have come back to life, flushed, red, wet in the rain. It has fallen for days and it may be days before it stops. One who doesn’t love the rain raises his head from the way, turtle-wise, he keeps it hunched be neath his shoulders. He turns an ugly, reproachful look at the low gray sky. But the old Pioneer, with a rivulet pouring off his hat, water running down his back and trickling from his beard, keeps the same brave throw to his shoulders, the spring to his stride, and the same rugged set to his chin. The Pioneer is the spirit of Oregon. His is a great unquenchable spirit, an ardor that hasn’t been dampened even by the discouraging heat of the storm of these last five years of economic disrup tion. His gaze is over the present troublous times. He knows that Oregon will come out fresher and brighter. Roll (Jail Again VTEWS was flashed over Associated Press wires yesterday that "Baby Face" Nelson, who Mon day morning had been on the department of justice role as public enemy No. 2, was late that night de clared public enemy No. 1, and that his name on the role had been underscored. The advance of prestige was the result of the ending of the career of “Pretty Boy" Floyd, who had occupied the position formerly. John Hamilton, an alleged Dillinger aide, also advanced on the role to take Nelson’s old position as runnerup. Should Nelson or Hamilton read that dispatch as is likely since criminals are close followers of the news not only for tips on the actions of the police, but for following their own publicity, they would have food for thought. They have only to think back a bit to find what happens to those who advance to the position of public enemy No. 1. "Scarface Al” Capone is residing in prison as the result of an income tax evasion case which the gov ernment builL against him; Clyde Borrow and Bon nie Parker, John Dillinger, and now “Pretty Bc.y” Floyd have died with their hands reaching for their guns. In each instance the gangster funeral has come shortly after being dubbed public enemy No. 1 by Uncle Sam. Surely the obvious fact that they are facing their finale is anything but comforting to Nelson and Hamilton. They can expect little else. At the same time an outraged American public, tired of the dep redations of gun-carrying hoodlums, is expecting' federal operatives to continue their task of wiping crime from the American picture. The Passing Show "Men Raking Carefully’ jpEW in number are the students who do not real ize that the United States is undergoing some kind of a social change today, or that at least, the attempt is being made. It remains to be seen wheth er the New Deal will remain or whether it will revert back to the “good old-fashioned way.” Cor respondingly few in number are the students who have analyzed the change and who have realized the example of new-dealing here on this campus. Consequently, when a clear-cut synthesis is con ceived, wo are inclined to give it due credit. We quote from an article written by Elizabeth Meis inger, senior in the school of home economics. "It is gratifying to watch the efforts being made on the Purdue campus to improve its physical ap pearance. Not until eight or ten months ago, when the Federal Government allowed the university money for improvements, has there been, for some time, such an enthusiasm evident in the appearance of the campus. However, with the money came a certain amount of unskilled labor to be utilized. Th>s has been espicially noticeable to observers—the many men raking a minute space preparing it for sod. "In previous times—in times of prosperity never would we have seen four or five men working several days raking' carefully, very carefully, pul verizing the soil to be sodded or seeded. It. would have been considered extravagant a waste of labor and money, above all of time, the most coveted thing of the machine age. The laborers would have had to use very up to date implements and modern ized methods, some of the men would have been more or less skilled at landscaping. The job would have been rushed through very hurriedly, in order to get to another. "But with the depression has come the CWA, GURA. et al workers using nineteenth century methods of construction with antiquated, but new, tools to beautify the campus, building new roads, tearing out old ones, and doing it very carefully." The machine age, with all if its achievements, does present, a terrifying aspect. Us keynote is ef ficiency, with an attendant reduction in the amount of time to be consumed in producing any given limit. The wheels of industry were speeded up so 1 that more wheels might be made to turn: the main point was that they be wheels and they be made to turn, bu' nobody stopped to consider if ttiose wheels were polished and cleaned. Not so many years ago, the land now occupied by the Mechanical Building and the Service and Stores Building was used as a dumping ground for tin cans and Model T fenders Constantly emphasized was the need for turning out engineers, but environment was rele gated to the attic of neglect. But, as in all things, there is a limit. The re action set in, and now the nation is in the midst of an era wherein it must finish things in order to keep busy. Is the world going to move backwards now i that “four or five men arc working several days inking carefully"? In the minds of some, it has moved back several centuries since 193;!. but wo believe that a livelihood is eveiy man's birthright I and that beauty and a pleasing environment have never been, and never will be, detrimental to the ad vance of civilization Purdue Kxponent. Limping, which was.so much .in'vogue Sunday i u 0radtullyidisuppsarwg1 from ilia wampus.*'! His Beard Could Bristle By FREDERIC S. DUNN ! tf UT it must not oe presumed, i '*'* because of this artistry in hu I mor, that Dr. John Straub was a | saint or an unimpeachable para gon. In his earlier clays, when he I was ‘Sec'y Fac’y' and the Teutonic I in him was paramount and a beard covered his face, his temper could I be far from Job-like or Mosaic. Later generations of students i who knew the dean in his riper j years, when experience and illness ! I had chastened him, will have dif I ficulty in picturing him as an in j structor capable of genuine ‘eye ! raski-bility.’ I have seen him in i some of those tantrums and have I heard of others. A ‘prepper’ was bounding up the stairs in Deady hall, three steps at a jump, succeeding thereby in contributing considerably to the noise of the spheres, to be con ! fronted on the landing by Profes i sor Straub in one of his sterner moods. "Mr. Dorris,” he exclaimed, "go back and walk up those stairs as you should.” As George has re hearsed it to me, he walked past the professor as if not having heard the remark at all, and took his seat in the classroom unmolested. And once, in our Xenophon class, Charlie Moore from Lakeview had a near tragedy. It was our regu lar practice on Mondays to review rapidly the entire past week’s as signment, a feat which could only be accomplished under the superb drill which' was Straub’s strong forte. Charlie, one Monday, was unprepared on this review and met at once with rebuke from the arm chair. “Mr. Moore, you know it is our regular Monday program. Why aren't you prepared?” "Well,” Charlie ventured, “I just couldn’t cover it this time.” "But you should have covered it. There is no excuse for it.” Pretty soon, Charlie was begin nmg to resent tne gruenng ana burst out with "Well, it doesn't do any good to scold.” "It does too," John Straub re torted with rather vulnerable log ic. I could swear that his beard fairly bristled. “All right. Go ahead then,” was Moore’s rejoinder, which was too much for an Olympian. The last bolt was death-dealing. "Mr. Moore, if you say another word, I j shall bring you before the faculty j for insolence.” Charlie had the dis- j cretion to "keep the door of his teeth.” But even those who most re sented what they might choose to term as an inflexible tyranny, could look back in after years and perhaps invariably lay the cause of the storm in large part at their own doors. Horace had his Orbil ius, but see what emanated from that feruled school room in Rome! One may never have heard ped agogic terminology in John Straub’s room,—queries as to ob jectives or methods or psychology tests,—but no student ever failed to realize that here was a man tre mendously intent on hewing out intelligence quotients. No writer of theses or disquisitions was John Straub, but in defense it may be 3aid, an entire creed for an entire world and for all time was once pronounced in Ten Words. Athens once owned a snub-nosed philoso pher,—and generations since have been blessed, though he left not one word on parchment. And such v/as John Straub. He reasoned that we came to him for Greek,—and we got it, marching any number of parasangs per diem, because it was a real Spartan in discipline in command of the hop lites. (The next issue wil contain "Have You Seen My Many-Faced Crab ?”) “On the Bandwagon” By DICK WATKINS 1T is sometimes interesting to x look back over the song hits of other days and see what a promi nent part some of them had in put ting various orchestras “on the map,” so to speak. For instance, little did RUDY VALLEE realize when he wrote the lyrics for "Deep Night” and made a record of it, back in 1929, that it would be the prime factor in sky-rocketing him from obscurity to fame and for tune almost overnight. LEO REIS MAN was just another band to most people till he made his now famous recording of "What Is This Thing Called Love,” and has been riding on its popularity ever since, in fact, he still uses it for his or chestra's theme song. (Incidental ly, that tune is still a heavy sel ler). WARING'S Pennsylvanians were doing their level best to make a go of things in New York when they had the good fortune to record two musical comedy hits right in a row, “Love for Sale,” and "Danc ing in the Dark," which just about sold them to Broadway for all times. TED FIO-RITO'S recordings of “Willow, Weep for Me,” and “I'll Take an Option on You," plus “Paradise,” helped to put him in the spotlight from which he has never escaped since. JACK HYL TON was hardly even known in this country until he made a con cert arrangement of “Just a Gigo lo," and almost the same could be said of RAY NOBLE. Many of us had an idea he was pretty good, but when his arrangements of “Lying in the Hay,” and “By a Dutch Canal,” came out, we knew darn well he was. GUS ARN HEIM’S classic, “I Surrender, Dear,” kept him the leading band in the country for a long stretch, and is still one of the best selling records of all times. DO YOU KNOW— That GUY LOMBARDO sued JAN GARBER for $50,000 for im itating his style, and won? That DUKE ELLINGTON'S i band has a repertoire of over SOO tunes and always play entirely from memory or by ear only? —That OZZIE NELSON’S theme song known from coast to coast is his Alma Mater’s marching song, "Loyal Sons of Rutgers,” and that his band during college days was named the “Jazz Ban dits” ? —That the two best known of all college songs are “The Main Stein Song,” and the “Sweetheart of Sigma Chi”? —That KENNY ALLEN, one of the far-famed 3 Cheers trio, with PHIL HARRIS when he was clicking at the Cocoanut Grove, is now in business in Salem and sings occasionally with “BOOTS” shrdlu occasionally with “BOOTS” GRANT’S orchestra there? —That JANE FROMAN is a Kappa; GEORGE OLSON, a Phi Kappa Psi; FRED WARING, an Alpha Chi Rho; TOM COAKLEY, a Phi Psi, HOAGY CARMICHAEL, a Kappa Sig; RUDY VALLEE, an S.A.E.; HERB KAY, a Dell; and FRANKIE MASTERS, a D.U. ? —That GUS ARNHEIM and his orchestra are definitely coming back to play a return engagement in Eugene on Wednesday, Novem ber 14, this time at Willamette Park ?

Bal loons are all right, as long as they aren't run into the ground.

Little Bleempo thinks that the new chain of five-and-ten cent stores in the U.S.S.R. ought to do a Russian business. Wesleyans Plan Chop-suey Feed Offering an outstanding bar gain, the Wesley club announces that a SI.00 chop suey dinner (ex tra large second helpings) will go on sale Thursday night only for 15c. The event is to take place at the Methodist church at 6:00 p. m. Pauline Gillespie and Bob Lar sen are in charge of the affair. An interesting program has been planned in connection with the dinner. Howard Ohmart, president of the Wesley club, will act as toastmaster. Speakers for the eve ning are Charles Paddock, Bernice Strombcrg, Dorothy Nyland, and Pauline Gillespie. John Casteel has prepared a reading for the amuse ment of his audience. Music is be ing landled by Theda Spicer, and Bea Campbell and Margaret Spi cer are in charge of decorations. Everyone who plans to attend is urged to make reservations im mediately by calling Dorothy Ny land, 1550-J, or the Methodist church, 375, as only a limited number of guests can be handled, and places are going fast. Explosion of Mazama Topic of Geology Meet Warren D. Smith, head of the geology department, presented a paper entitled, “Mount Mazama Explosion Versus Engulfment,” at a meeting of Condon club, October 17. The article was the result of research work done at Crater Lake during the past season. Condon club is an honorary for upperclassmen in the geology and geography departments. It has no national connections. The club is named for Thomas Condon, an ear ly pioneer at the University and the first geology instructor here. Harry McCallum is president of the club, Fred Hofstead, vice-pres ident and social chairman, and Lloyd Ruff is secretary-treasurer. Criticism Class Uses Writings of S. S. Smith Prof. S. Stephenson Smith wrote a section in the pamphlet, “Good Reading,” on books on the ren aissance in the continent. His criticism class, which meets at 10 a. m. Tuesdays and Thursdays in room 104 of the Journalism build ing, uses this pamphlet. “Good Reading,” edited by At wood H. Townsend, contains books in all periods in history on science, biography, drama, poetry, fiction, essays, and numerous other sub jects. The books are compiled by the National Council of Teachers of English, of which Mr. Smith is a member. Send the Emerald to your friend Subscription rates $2.50 a year.

I didn’t even know what a guest columnist feels like, and I know less about it now that I’ve started writing this. Anyway, it seems that the new song hit for the month is dedicat ed to a favorite of the good, old days when the noble experiment was still being noble. It’s entitled, “I Only Have Ice for You” and it’s in commemoration of the American bellboy. "Bik” wants me to be sure and mention the fact that today’s broadcast brings to the ether an other “This is news!” program with Virginia Wappenstein, Peggy Chessman, Dan E.

SERA Allots Fund For Construction In one of the largest wrork pro jects allowed by the state com mittee in the day’s $50,000 SERA program, the University of Oregon was allotted nearly $10,000 Tues day with which to carry on land scape gardening, construction of new roads and walks on the cam pus athletic field. Grading work for the football and baseball fields and 15 tennis courts on the Eugene athletic Cold was also approved. Other projects are: completion of work on the Eugene game bird farm, grading of a county road about two miles east of Coberg bridge on the north bank of the McKenzie river and repair of the Eugene public library. Completion of the Eugene air port, involving leveling the field, graveling the runway, drainage, marking and lighting will be un dertaken. The work will make the Eugene field one of the best in the state.

Lost domthingf University Depot One poor little yellow gold watch is quietly languishing in a nice safe place in the office of the lost and found department of the Uni versity depot. It is a sad little watch, its heart beat hardly audi ble. It is patiently waiting for its master to come for it. Perhaps if we could only understand the lan guage of this small thing, we would hear a most interesting history. Possibly it is its first experience at being lost. In a box all alone are the pens and pencils. There is a dainty lit tle pen there. It fairly radiated the warmth of words it has learned in its years of use. The love let ters that have so eloquently been spelled out. The themes which have been so ponderously written, the papers which have been so thoughtfully signed, are all mir rored on the shiny surface of this pen. There is another pen,—a big one. Perhaps it has belonged to some handsome football player. Its story is possibly nearly identical to that of its dainty sweetheart, ex cept that perhaps its choice of words is different. There is an overcoat, a big rough and tumbly overcoat, there in the office. We couldn’t persuade it to tell any of its history. Per haps it was only keeping senti mental thoughts from the light of the world. If it would talk, maybe it would tell us of the heads which have been pillowed on its shoulder, of those little words which are only between you and me and the overcoat, of the many things which had been slipped in its pockets and forgotten. That overcoat is no small affair, it is "made for a sky giant.” The gloves in the box might also tell a story—of the hands which have worn them. Vivacious hands, beautiful hands, hands that have the care of work upon them, ner vous, small hands, that have been held by great strong ones. Oh, yes, the articles in the lost and found office have a story. Dahlberg to Speak W. A.
