So announces '1- II- Pruett, astronomy instructor of the I niversity extension division. It is to he the tltird of seven eclipses in 1 !•.'».>. lie explains porlia jis wit i i a little pardonable pride in sindi an accomplishment ■ for it is not ofleli there are seven Mill eclipses in one vear. We are interesfed in Mr. Pruett's an nouneeineiit. Not Hull we are struck h\ its seient iI ic import i>r iistronoinieal intpliea lion— for we know little about eclipses, and would not he particulars surprised were there to he lit) eclipses within the year. Hut we are interested for we like eclipses. It is a juvenile enjoyment, perhaps and not tinged with the scientific interest which in spires the astronomer’s observations hut 1 never)bless an enjoyment. it is Hint kind of enjoyment J'or which a throng from the I'niversity and from Mugene will arise before dawn next Sunday and tmdge eagerly up the heights of Fairmount lull and Skinner's butte to gaze through j darkened glasses and hils of camera film as the sunrise phenomenon, and to utter thrilled exclamations as the ludl of fire is slowly darkened by the shadow of the moon. It is the same enjoyment which comes trom watching a sun sink into a nest of red gold hills, from hearing the song of a strange new bird, from seeing for the first time the mighty waters of the Niagara crashing into the foam. It is the mjo\ meut aroused by the graceful speed of a racing car. the dip of a giant seaplane. It is the enjoyment of the new. the fas- | cumting, the strange, that is aroused hv an eclipse <)f the sun. It is for that thrill 'that beds will he deserted in the dark of next Sunday morning, and warm houses aband oned for the chill of the road, lierause of 1 ■ i ' attracted by dr. Pruett o au nutuicmeut. One Man's Opinion E have, with great diligence, perused the ' ” Declaration of Independence, the Edict of Nantes, the Epistles of Paul the apostle and the words of Allah through his prophet Mohammed, and we just can’t find anything in any of them that says it's all right for an eleven ton truck bearing cold-storage fish from Seattle to L. A,, to use Thirteenth street as a part of the route to the south. Of course, we will admit- that we have not yet got around to mulling through the imposing list of ordinances which are filed away down at the city hall. Thcr ■ may be some reference there to the matter. Still it does look as though some one of the great le ;al documents might have dis cussed a probl ...1 v/hich is of such dimensions. Mind you, we have no objections to a per fectly self-respecting CCG truck perambulating down the thoroughfare which divides our campus. It provides an excellent opportunity for the kids on the truck to make appropriate remarks or inappropriate, depending on whether you are rid ing the truck or watching it pass about the softies milling around between classes. Likewise it provides many a collegian with a thought, a wistful dream that maybe someday he too, will make thirty dollars a month by honest labor. No, we don't object to the CCC trucks at all. But by no stretch of our fertile imagination can we feature what a fish truck wants to be nosing around the campus for anyhow. Or a wholesale truck hauling avocados from Riverside. Or a lot of other trucks to whom a college education would be about as useful as one of our old socks. II doesn't make sense. Much as it pains us, we admit that the small towns of the San Joaquin valley in California know a great deal more about handling the heavy truck traffic than do the dads of our fair city. If there is an ordinance here which prohibits such traffic i* should be ressurected and made known. In the south, heavy trucks or in many cases all unnecessary commercial traffic is notified by a neat sign at the city limits that it will do well to follow the "truck route” through the little burg. A big oil or mercantile truck on the main drag is just wasting its fragance on the desert air as far as the cop on the beat is concerned. The driver or his company usually gets to ante into the city's graft pot for his trouble. The campus is not the only sufferer in this respect. It only takes a. couple of these goliaths of (lie highway to complete obstruct traffic on Willamette street. And when one of those babies make “dead man's turn” from Broadway onto Willamette, it is a sight to behold. We can't think of anything else but that crazy game of crack tiie whip we used to play, when we see a monstrous trailer make that curve. That there is some sort of ordinance to regu late heavy traffic on the city's business and res idence streets, we do not doubt. .If there is, in heaven’s name why isn't it. enforced? We hate to lie a lone vocie crying out in the wilderness but certainly, somewhere there must be another holes gated soul who has nearly been chased up a telephone pole by a l'ish truck. Please, mister, won't you see your congressman about it? By Stivers Vernon The Passing Show hi: yikw unil vi.ak.m: Tin (High Hid ranks of publications men and women yesterday morning ran a shiver of ap prehension. The Pelican, grand old bird of the campus and lirsl ranking collegiate humor publi cation in the United States, is to have an “ad visory" board appointed by the A.S.U.C. president to review each issue of the magazine. We view with alarm. By the same token, the Monarch ol the College Duiles could lit1 given an “advisory" board to peer over its editor's shoulder and “advise" concerning his editorial opinion. Another board could lie appointed to “advise” the managing editor as to which news events should he printed. Kven The Califot iliac could be given a board to “advise" him concerning handling of satire. We view with alarm. Mow we are not saying that President Alden Smith would do this. We arc not saying that any A.S.U.C. president would do this. But a precedent has been established, it this action remains ef fective, that would open publications to the pos sibility of CKNSOKSIUP Advice is good. We seek it daily: the editor ot the Pelican seeks it before each issue is pub lished. But the editor of each publication should seek it for himself: it should not be forced on him b_\ an A.S.l apresident's advisory board. It has long been the title that the editor of cadi publication at the University is solely re sponsible for his publication. If his conduct is not satisfactory, he can be removed by the executive committee, or censured by the president of the university upon recommendation of the student affairs committee Such censure can deny him the right ot participation in student activities, or tesult in his suspension or expulsion from the university. Ail publications aie satisiied with this rule. If it could be shown that an editor was guilty of misconduct of his publication, and that the situa tion warranted it. they would agree to his removal trom his position. We believe that thi-- ruling is sufficient to handle all eases. Therefore we oppose any “advisory" board ioi 1 he Pelican.

The Day’s Parade _ 15y Parks Jli'-dicork _ Hull vs. Aatioiuilisni SECRETARY OF STATE HULL told senators on the agriculture committee yesterday in plain words that the present nationalistic pol icy as evidenced by the upper house is not only jeopardizing our trade relations but is also causing other nations to look with sus picion at our every act. itnps Economists Hull, one of the staunchest and ablest of the administration’s min isters. flayed in no unmeasured j terms the economic and interna . tional policy of the dictatorial few both among economists and legis lators. Among his statements: “We see probably 40 per cent oi the people of our land living at the ; poverty level and here we sit al I lowing our economic policies to be I dictated by a small minoiity. 1 I don’t question their patriotism, but 1 think that five years has shown the bankruptcy of their leader ship.” Isolation Hit Secretary Hull further de nounced the opportunist policy oI American economists in the past when the subject of framing trade agreements had been broached; he j intimated that they had sought ] nothing but temporary business j success at the expense of good j will. Press Value It is interesting to note that a paragraph such as the one quoted above would have been tantamount to political heresy a half a dozen years ago and would probably been punished by a verbal burning at the stake. Today it rates but mi nor mention besides the affairs of the unfortunate Hauptmann and the vociferous Huey. Distrust Evinced But although Secretary Hull sa tirically refused to question the patriotism of the “Grab-bag” school of diplomats and legislators, a profound distrust in the heirarch ical system of government as em bodied in capitalism is readily de tected, a distrust that has too of ten found substantiation in the past. Intellectual Vdvance I The sweeping change that has come over the country in the last six or seven years may be sensed with some degree of adequacy by re-reading Secretary Hull’s pub lished remarks and realizing at the same moment the feeling of aver sion that universally accompanied the name “Socialist” only seven | years ago. USi/tpon Anns yj I T H trouble in China becom I ing a paramount issue and j trouble with Soviet Russia likely i to materialize at any moment, | Japanese legislators are trying to obtain one-half of the Japanese national income, $297,000,000, for military purposes in 1935-30. Evidently all of the news issued by the various Japanese news agen cies that trouble in China has been | definitely settled may be discount ed a great deal. Militarists Dictate The tide of militarism iij Japan has been very high for the past, few years militarists have had dictatorial powers and the author ity to declare tor not to declare war, but still have engagements! with any country in the world. With the prospect of draining' the treasury to such an extent, however, the Japanese will either ; have to be reassured that such an j expense is wise or else they are likely to put another faction in 1 power. We note with interest that any time when some national or inter national issue is to be decided by Japan that the army engages in some spectacular victory over the poor, downtrodden Chinese. Russia \guin In addition to the trouble in China, the supporters of this huge , budget for armaments have ar gued that the difficulties in China might, in the very near future, be the basis for serious trouble with i ! Russia. Should such a thing happen, the wily Japanese know it will neces sitate a much better army and navy than they now possess. Also, that Russia, although much changed, has not forgotten the ports gained br mipan in the Rus sian-Japanese v. ar. Sox iet Preparedness Russia is also preparing foi some encounter, for she too. has greatly increased her armament i appropriations for the next few years. Unless things happen soon to quell the unrest in the orient, we! may see what militarism ha- done, for Japan uul what the "brother hood" plan has done for Hus. ia. cend the lanelaid tu .sour lncud: , I An Oregon Man Looks at Women Editor, the Emerald: I was very much shocked nay. 1 grieved upon reading our Emer ald yesterday to observe an em phatic headline over the women's page asking pointedly, “What Ails ’ the Oregon Men?" The answer, according to several | girls i wa almost said young ladies), is that Oregon men lack brains, breeding, ogod taste, etc specifically, and numerous other things by intimation. Since destiny has ordained that we should be male, and .since the same destiny has made the male of the species very vain, our first reaction is to defend the males with the full power of the typewriter. Along this line we should pursue the tactics of a counter attack and | ask why the girls who find the most desirable men retiring, ab i sorbed in their studies are never around and about with any of them. To this there’d be one ans wer: that they don't iind it worth ; the time and trouble. Then, I might ask, who's to blame for the bad taste in makeup I and dress or the synthetic sophisti 1 cation which the girls are in the | habit, of affecting; the scarlet lips ! that remind one of a slash with a i razor; the excessive powder which j gives some girls the complexion , of a pale ghost. And r might close with the sweeping statement that i an angel sent from heaven is no more welcome than the occasional girl who uses god taste in makeup and dress, not to mention conversa tion. But alas! That same destiny has i equipped me with a tendency to j consider an argument from both I sides. Hence my philosophy is as fol lows; that the modern girl is a very sensitive mechanism and that she will respond favorably to con siderate treatment, even as a kit ten which is caught outside on a cold, rainy day; that Oregon women probably have good reasons for their arguments, biased as they appear to be; that every girl is a princess in her own mind and that she’s always looking around for a Prince Charming, and that the fellows who approach that ideal are the fellows who will be branded as men of good breeding, intelli gence and consideration. That these girls are romantic ists and prefer such romantic types as Don Juan, Casanova, and Beau Brummel—with certain restric tions of course, since after all they really are charmingly unsophisti cated when one comes to examine them closely. Therefore I believe that I might as well concede this argument to the girls, for the plain and simple reason that practically everything men do in life is for the purpose of making the women God bless 'em!- happy and contented. Let us not make it necessary for them to become accustomed to our brusque and impatient ways. Rather let us strive to match up with their dreams, which make them the lovable idealists which they are. J. A. N. Asylum Locale tor Radio Play Bj George Bikmau Imagine two people meeting at a ball being given for inmates in an asylum; naturally he thinks she is crazy, and she thinks he is. And Dan Cupid is trying bow and ar row. tooth and nail, to make a hit. That’s the plot of the play to be given by the Emerald players at; 4:15 today over KORE.

In a recent interview, Rudy Vallee said that he owes most ( of his success as a bandleader and < entertainer, to the experiences and t knowledge he received during his i college career, both at the U. of c Maine and at Yale . . . Vallee took r a course that gave him a little of ( everything, but that the study of i psychology had been the most val- j liable to him. for it helped him in ( shaping his judgment of what to play, and when to play it, and how to play it . . . also aiding him in his selection of tunes that looked like successful songs, and in anal yzing the crowds he plays to. Vallee has been a top-notcher in radio and music circles for nearly seven years now, and is still going strong, which is a feather in any entertainer’s cap . . .
