It’s This By Marge Petsch When the women's editor was asked about two weeks ago if she had organized her staff for the coming year or not, she hung her head and admitted that she had not. But on Tuesday night she se cretly rejoiced that she had not be cause very suddenly the whole sit uation in respect to this year's wo men’s page was changed. Never before have so many new and former women students signi fied a desire to participate in pub lishing the Emerald. And it is also interesting to note that a large per centage of these are women who know how to write, who already have a certain professional touch, and who will be capable of present ing women’s news in a highly read able fashion. If the women’s page this year fails to hit a new high for quality it will be due to either poor management, or a sudden lack of interest on the part of those wo men who made such a splendid showing on Tuesday night. We are going to make a real ef fort this year to keep women on | the Oregon campus in close touch with local women’s activities, with j activities of the Associated Women Students in particular. It is our j opinion that too many women at I Oregon drift through their four \ years with but the slightest infor mation in respect to the actual ac complishments and objectives of the organizations which are recog nized as representative of their own sex. in order to ofter \yhat campus women want, the women’s depart ment of the paper is open to sug gestion at all times. Because of the large supply of writers, we will be able to present numerous fea tures, both of local and national significance. Outstanding facts about campus women satellites will be a regular feature, with society and fashions taking their custom ary place. It is high time that Oregon wo men awake to the real meaning of their college existence; that it is not merely a place where one may pledge oneself to a sorority, or store away a certain amount of knowl edge for present or future use, but a real workshop for the establish ment of future useful habits. Not to be organization-minded is satis factory for many rugged individ ualists, but most women are pos sessed of a strong gregarious tend ency which may be developed into lines wherein women may find a surprising measure of happiness. Consequently, we hope this year to be able to aid materially the many objectives held by the Oregon women’s organizations which we consider of particular worth. To be a part of the whole scheme is to be interested in it, and the wo men’s page will play its part as campus informer. U, 0.

The interview has been run without changes or omissions. By Elenore Tingle An interview with the Dean of Women! My poor freshman heart missed several beats and all my ideas of interviewing procedure vanished into thin air. But wdiile waiting in her office, I happened to notice an article in the October Reader’s Digest entitled “The First Lady” and thought how very appropriate that title would be for Hazel P. Schwering. Nothing seemed to express better this sim ilarity to Mrs. F. D. Roosevelt than did Mrs. Schwering’s initial talk to the freshman. A red hat and gardenias! What comment and wonder they aroused, but what more perfectly expressed the personality of our "first lady” than those? Instead of appearing on the speaker’s plat form all in sombre black to im press the young freshmen at their initial meeting last week, Mrs. Schwering had on a most becom ing red hat and her youthful and charming appearance appealed to all of them. Instead of talking down to them, she spoke as though she were one of them and in formed them that they were grown up enough and intelligent enought to be entitled to freedom as long as they were able to use it in a responsible fashion. "We did not anticipate such an avalanche of freshmen during rush week and ^had. some difficulty in housing them. More students stayed off the campus than ever before, in spite of the fact that Susan Campbell hall had been set aside for them,” stated Mrs. Schwering. "Rush week itself seemed to function more smoothly and there wa^ a better spirit among the houses,” Mrs. Schwering contin ued. “Fewer girls had hysterics and very few of them had diffi culty in deciding what houses they wanted to pledge. As a rule, Port land girls have much less difficulty in deciding the houses they want to pledge than do girls from other vicinities as they are rushed the year round and attend many soror ity functions in Portland." “Panhellenic is now working on plans for rush week during the next year,” she concluded. Mrs. Schwering was not the “dowager" type of dean of women and I had completely forgotten that I was supposed to be inter viewing her. Her appearance is so youthful and her manner so charming that she seemed more like an upper classman giving practical advice and stating inter esting facts. And as I walked out of her office, my trepidation hav ing been completely forgotten, I remembered a comment that had been made by one of the freshmen when she first saw her: “Jiminy. I thought she was a student.” Theta Sicjaita Phi To Hold?Lunch Meetimcj Tmesdoiij Henriette Horak, president of Theta Sigma "Phi, women’s jour nalism honorary, announced last night that there will be a lunch eon meeting of the organization next Tuesday. The meeting, the first to be held this year, will take place at the Anchorage, starting at 12 o’clock. Plans for initiation will be dis- i cussed, according to Miss Horak, as well as arrangements for the entertainment of women attending the high school press conference here next month. Committees for the later event will.be appointed, as will all standing committees for the year. “I should like to urge every member to be present,” Miss Hor ak said, “since we want Theta Sigma Phi to reestablish this year its important role in the school of journalism and on the campus.” Rest Dresser Linen suits with sunflowers in the lapels are regulation gradua tion costumes for lawyers at the University of Texas.
