It’s This
Way
By Marge retsch
He hesitate to call any author
ity (?) on the carpet for an oc
casional misstep, but we find that
in the case of yesterday morning’s
Emerald, Tex Thomason jumped to
conclusions far beyond the very ob
vious facts!
=p * «
In the STAGE OF THE WORLD,
Tex ventured the statement that
although he “did not hold the tenet
that women's place is in the home,
he did hold that her place is def
initely out of politics.’’ Going on
he asserted that none of our wo
men politicians in the senate have
done anything and that they give
no promise of doing anything. All
this is very well, for the three sin
gle examples of women in the sen
ate. But how about our other na
tional women figures, Mr. Thoma
son?
We hate to embarrass some of
our contemporary male politicians
by drawing their attention to the
brilliant activities of Ruth Bryan
Owen, a United Statcss ambassa
dor. The high calibre of intelli
gence slie has shown in her posi
tion in politics is really rare. So is
that of Josephine Koche, recipient
of the National Achievement award
and prominent in the United States
treasury department, Nellie Tayioe
Ross, former governor of Wyo
ming, is another of onr most able
lady politicians. She’s now at the
head of the United States mint.
* * *
We desire to point out, in the
main, that the chief fault in Mr.
Thomason's observations was that
he based all of his calculations on
the activities of three women. He
didn’t even take into consideration
the women politicians of Oregon.
He completely forgot Mrs. Bea
trice Saclrett, now a respected
member of the board of higher ed
ucation, governor’s secretary for
two terms, and the outstanding
woman in Oregon’s political set-up.
He overlooked the widely known
Mrs. Abigal Dunniway and Mrs.
Dye. He apparently hadn't heard
of Mrs. Dorothy Lee, an able mem
ber of the Oregon house of repre
sentatives. Hanna Martin, also a
state representative, didn't occur
to him.
I’robalily the most unthinking j
observation offered by Mr. Thomii- j
son was his assertion that respect
is given to women in congress “not
because they say anything astute,
not because of intellect, but be- j
cause ..of ..chivalry.” ..True, -Mr.
Thomason, if intelligence be based j
on conniving for war and war prep
arations. True, if the “softening j
feminine treble”—as Mr. Thoma
son calls it—is to be merely “tol
erated and humored” in its desper
ate light for the peace of Ameri
ca. Blit there are few congress
men who were in office at the

Alpha Tau Omega's winter for

courage and stopped to think of
the arguments presented by Jean

American women are just start
ing their political life. Naturally
they have not done as much as
men. But they have a definite part
to play in politics—a part which
men have never been able to sup
ply except in rare cases.
They have and will continue to
supply that certain measure of
clear and calm thinking-, that abil
ity to stop and analyze a situation,
which is so revolting to men who
cry for the rapid lire action which
could so easily lead us into another
war.

Togs for Coed
By INGRED LILJEQVIST
Though the winter landscape
presents a bleak scene of campus
life to the unfamiliar eye, and the
brooding face of the roving pundit
bespeaks an atmosphere of schol
ars and books- never fear! The
frivolous spirit still thrives. As
long as coed pulchritude continues
to storm the citadel of learning,
that worthy institution will hold
sway within its own bounds. Be
yond that, the blithe coed goe ■ un
1 daunted. Her complete optimism

I puts new life into the logging male.
I Even her clothes smack of the es
I sence of gaiety.
Excellent Ts: !e Seen
And in this last lies our interest.
How dull the wintry scene were it
not for those talented female;
whose artistic abilities are not. del
egated to the classroom alone!
Though smart clothes are not a
rare sight on the campus, the coed
who is garbed with invariable chic
is a novelty. Not only excellent
taste but continual vigilance of
immaculateness is reuired to main
tain a smart appearance.
To three girls this week go the
honors for upholding this stand

Alpha Phi, has been seen on the
campus in a smart heavy tweed
suit that achieves the height of
sartorial perfection. With it she
wears a silk blouse in dul? nnet,
I the color of the suit, relieving'the
utter simplicity of the neckline by
the addition of a small string of
pearls. A felt hat and calf trot
ters, both in the same wine color,
complete the outfit.
Rough Wool Smart
Bernice I-Isaly, Theta in origin,
gives the wintry background a!
definite cache by lic-r many smart
costumes. One of particular note
is a rough woolen suit in dark
green. A dashing collar of lynx
tops a flaring coat, short enough
to reveal the skirt of the same
shade underneath. She wears with

Miller, who has been appointed
campus social chairman to take
Ilctte Church's place, says that af
ter a frenzied discussion the de
cision still stands.
Isabelle is attempting to help
every one as Cette did by holding
a clearing house for all opinions
on how social activities should be
carried on. 'T want," said Isabelle
yesterday, “to hear opinions, find
out just what the majority thinks
and let others know. In this way

No Corsage at Dinners
It has also been decided that no
corsages should be given for the
dinners held before the dance,
f in 1 they are, in reality, a prelim
inary to the ball. This does not.
1 or to other types of flower ar
r elements, of course. Any girl
v.-ho is wearing a corsage may
leave it on her coat when it is
checked.
The prevailing note of the ball
is to be formal, with tuxedos and
formal evening dress pervading
McArthur court, but due to that
fold campus tradition forbidding
freshmen to wear formal attire,
said Isabelle, dark suits arc not
being banned.
Formal Manners Asked
Isabelle suggests that the cam
pus really get into the spirit of a
formal ball, tire one big annual
event of the year, by using the
programs and being careful to
peak to patrons. This latter cus
tom is sometimes forgotten in the
informal air of many campus
dances but should not be neglected.
As for the intriguing programs
that are given to each couple, now
is the time to really used them.
“There is to be a grand orchestra,
which should enhance the spirit of
the affair. The filling out of pro
grams is an old custom which goes
hand in hand with an elegant ball,
and I certainly hope the majority
of students will attend, giving that
needed flourish for a great Senior
ball,” concluded Isabelle.
