Vehicles carrying clattering
noise making devices of all de

of cars. Rally officials said
last night that only one noise-bear

to bear the name of the fraternity.
Noise is to be the only consid
eration to be taken into account
by the following six judges in
awarding an electric clock to the
winner: Mr. and Mrs. D. P. Wash
burne, Mr. and Mrs. Horace Rob
inson, and Mr. and Mrs. L. Rowl

Eddy Upholds Socialism9
Condemns Facist System
By CHARLES PADDOCK
Branding: fascism as the great
est threat to world peace now fac
ing the world, Sherwood Eddy, one
of America’s most dynamic Chris
tians, yesterday warned a near
capacity gathering in Gerlinger
hall that the only effective ressis
tance to war is a new social order
based on cooperation.
Mr. Eddy defined fascism as an
agravated form of capitalism in
its dying throes. Italy, Germany
and Japan were cited as the three
danger zones of the world. All
have the same imperialistic, mili
taristic complex, he declared.
“The menace of war, however, is
only symptomatic,” he warned.
"The whole social order is one of
strife between classes, between
capital and labor, between the rich
and the poor, between different
races and colors, and between na
tions.”
Bold and striking was Mr. Ed
dy’s condemnation of America for
her determination to exploit the
tense situation in Europe. Amer
ica, he declared, is ready to gorge
on profit, by selling all kinds of
war materials to the belligerents
in Europe.

Oregon State’s Greeting
(Editorial)
No rivalry on (hr gridiron field exists anywhere that is more
important to the on-looker than the annual traditional Duck-Beaver
football tussle again brought on local fields for a combined gala
Homecoming. Guests of the University of Oregon Associated Students
during this Saturday’s game, we of Oregon State college look forward
to this opportunity to be the bitterest of fighters on the gridiron but
to act our parts as guests and to further the mutual and fine relation
ship that has grown between the two schools.
Two institutions 3(5 miles apart, bound together through the Ore
gon State System of Higher Education under one chancellor with inter
changing heads of departments and schools, certainly have a right, as
rights go, to build up spirit, enthusiasm and rivalry against each other
to the superlative degree. As a steam engine with its hot coals in the
fire box and a boiler full of steam is a useful mechanical invention
under control but a steam-propelled devastating monster for dealing
destruction if freed, so is this U. of O.-O. S. C. spirit.
The fire of enthusiasm, pep and rivalry develops steam in the
boiler of school spirit and if controlled not only is useful in building
the character of higher educational institutions but is a necessity. Outj
of control they can only cause anxiety, hard feelings and possible
trouble. We both should lie ready to have controlled school spirit to
build pride and admiration in Oregon’s state-owned university and
college.
A cultivated host-guest attitude has already been developed be
tween the two schools, starting last Friday when the good-will presi
dent of Oregon State met with your University of Oregon student and
administration heads.
We’re bringing our alumni and the student body up to the game
. . . looking forward to your reception as hosts; we’re ready to play
our part as guests. If your Duck eleven breaks that Beaver dam, then
we’ll sing our Alma Mater first and watch you besiege the orange
black goal posts. If the Ducks become soup from the Beaver onslaught,
then you give us the “Mighty Oregon” and we’ll bring home the goal
post kindling. May the best team win!

Students’ Cooperative Living as

Originally organized on the Ore
