DIARY
-OF A
Colletje Girl
feb 20 another nice day
like this one and i’m sunk.
i didn’t think this spring
fever business
would get me until
next term but here i am
worthless already, ho hum.
despite resolute vows to spend
today doing a bit of much-needed
studying i weakened
when tempted with an
invitation to go
for a ride up the mckenzie.
i turned the customary deaf ear
to the stem whisperings of the
voice of conscience and
had a very good time.
got back about six o’clock
and firmly resolved to
get a little studying done
at least.
but some of the girls were
going out roller-skating.
and i do so love to roller-skate.
so the evening went, alas.
i really must pull myself
together and quit wasting
time.
feb 21 is this
weather demoralizing.
much as i hated myself for
doing it i cut two
classes this afternoon
to go bicycling, it really
felt like spring.
and it was so beautiful

tonight, i walked up to
the campus in a lovely
sentimental mood thinking
beautiful thoughts, and on
my way i met bill, the dumb
twit, well, at any other
time i'd probably barely speak
to bill but feeling mellow
1 smiled in my most captivating
manner and said isn’t it a
lovely evening bill,
yeah, 1 guess so, said bill,
still under the spell of the
night’s beauty i made some
sappy remark about romance,
or something and bill
sneered at me and said
yeah, romance, that’s all
you women ever thing of.
well, i still think it was
a beautiful night
but my worst doubts
about men are
definitely confirmed.
Old Campus Cars
Arc Repaired far
Spring Jouj Rides
By RITA WRIGHT
With spring in the uir, it is now
time for all young men to get out
their campus crates and see what
a winter of exposure has done for
them. A research on the campus
resulted in these finds:
Beta Theta Pi is the proud pos
sessor of “Arabella.” In reality,
this grand old girl is a Franklin
put out in 1918. Arabella, due to
a hard winter, is now a convales
cent with a broken axle, a shatter
ed rear wheel, and one “flat foot."
‘Arabella’ Has Accident
Her worst experience up to date
happened fall term en route to a
football game in Portland. A
breakdown occurred at Albany and
due to the difficulty in finding
mechanical parts corresponding
with Arabella it wras necessary to
be towed in to Oregon City. Hal
Duden, owner, promises to have
the machinery well greased, and
oiled lor spring term.

Mary Jane Mahoney Meets
President, Visits White House
On Flying Trip to Washington
By CLARE IGOE
To fly, at literally a moment's notice, across the United States, to
meet President Roosevelt and to have tea at the white house with
Mrs. Roosevelt, were the thrills that were experienced recently by Mary
Jane Mahoney, petite, dark Kappa Kappa Gamma, a sophomore in arts
and letters.
Mary Jane had gone to the airport in Portland to say goodbye to
her family, then leaving for Washington, D. C., when, with ten minutes
left before the plane took off, Mr. Mahoney suddenly decided Mary
Jane was to go along. Off she flew, without suitcase, clothing, or even
a toothbrush.
Stays at argp Hotels
The plane took off from Port
land at 9:30 in the evening, and
at 12:30 the next day was in Chi
cago. There the Mahoneys stayed
at the Stevens hotel, the largest
hotel in the world. There is no cen
tral desk and lobby, but each of
the 28 floors has its own.
Still without luggage, Mary Jane
also made some much-needed pur
chases in the immense Marshall
Field store, where she reported
she had much difficulty finding
things and not getting lost.
When the plane arrived in Wash
ington, Mary Jane was very much
impressed with the beauty of the
city, and remarked that she was
very excited to be there, and see
so many things she had heated
about..
Go Thru White House
The Mahoneys made a trip
through the white house, which in
terested Mary Jane very much.
“I was surprised that so many
people came in and out,” she said.
"The east entrance, where we went
in, is open to the public, and many
people go there all the time. I had
rather expected it to be much
more excluded.” She was delighted
to see the gold inlaid piano she
had heard so much about, during
her visit.
Mary Jane saw the ceremony
when the President put flowers on
Lincoln’s grave on Lincoln’s birth
day. She also visited the house,
the senate and the supreme court
in session, and reported it as being
interesting, but somewhat confus
ing. The supreme court especially
interested her, because of recent
comment about it.
Tea Is Highlight
One of the highlights of the trip
was the invitation to have tea at
the white house, received through
a friend of the Mahoneys, who is
national democratic women’s
chairman. Arriving at the white
house, Mary Jane was received by
two tall negro footmen in tails,
who met her car, took her name,
and passed her on to two more,
who in turn passed her on to two
more, all bowing and repeating
her name.
Mrs. Roosevelt received the
quests, of whom there were about
twenty, in the red room, which
was all done in a red corded silk,
drapes and walls, all being- red.
Mrs. Roosevelt was dressed in the
same color.
“Mrs. Roosevelt is a wonderful
woman," 'Mary Jane remarked.
"Very natural, and easy to talk to.
Just like you or I might be."
Farley Banquet Held
Another bright spot of the ex
citing visit was the banquet given
in honor of James Farley at the
Mayflower hotel in Washington.
Congressmen, senators, and cabi
net members were invited, and
Mary Jane stated that that made
a large crowd. President Roosevelt
spoke at the banquet, and Mary
Jane met him there. Vice-president
Garner was toastmaster, and Law
rence Tibbett, noted opera star,
sang.
“The dinner was marvelous,"
Mary Jane smiled. “Everything
you could imagine to eat—with
long names."
A trip through the mint, where
She saw $100,000 bills, and watch
ed stamps being made, and a trip
through the Congressional library
were other interesting features.
Sees Interesting Relies
In the Congressional library she
saw the original United States
constitution and Declaration of In
dependence, and the famous Gut
enberg Bible. In the Smithsonian
institute, which she also visited,
she saw the first airplane invented,
also the first car, and the Spirit
of St. Louis, and the Winnie Mae.
Especially interesting, she
thought, was the collection of
dresses worn by the presidents'
wives from George Washington up
:o the present day. Of these the

moat amusing were those worn by
Mrs. Collidge, in the era of skirtg
worn above the knees.
Shakespeare Library
Another absorbing spot was the
new Folger's Shakespeare library,
where original copies of Shake
speare’s plays, the costumes worn
by the first actors who played in
them, and stage equipment used
at this time are kept. Rings and
elaborate jewelry were part of the
collection.
Mary Jane made a three-day
trip to New York between times
of her Washington visit, and had
an exciting time there. She visited
night clubs in Harlem, notably the
famous Cotton club, where Cab
Calloway and Bill Robinson are
featured entertainers. Greenwich
and Chinatown were other spots
she saw. She enjoyed first showing
of Pearl Buck’s “The Good Earth"
very much. In Washington she saw
Tallulah Bankhead in “Reflected
Glory,’’ and saw th6 actress’
father, who is speaker o f the
house, among those attending.
Night Club Liked
The Mahoneys stayed at the
Astor hotel in New York, where
Vincent Lopez' orchestra plays.
Another spot Mary Jane liked was
Jack Dempsey’s night club in New
York.
The Mahoney's flew back on the
Mainliner, and arrived in San
Francisco the same day that the
passenger plane crashed in the bay
there.
Mary Jane says she is still so
thrilled and excited over the trip
that she is finding it difficult to
settle back into her accustomed
round of life at school—and catch
up on study missed during the trip.
“But it was worth it,” she sigh
ed. “I’ll probably never have the
chance again. It’s one of those
things that happens once in a life
time.”

Gulp Oodlesof
Coke consumpion at the Uni
versity of Oregon has assumed
gigantic proportions. It has been
estimated by one soda jerker that
students here drink more than one
half a million cokes during a school
year.
A study of the cokes enjoyed by
students reveals not only their eco
nomic status but also something
of their nature. However, it would
take more coeds than 'just the
'lemons’ to drink all of the lemon
cokes served, because they seem to
be the favorite of a large major
ity of the coeds.
Carlene Scott, Alpha Phi, in or
der to get all of her favorite cokes
into a one-day schedule has three
in the afternoon and two at night.
To round out the day she has a
hamburger before going to bed.
Shirley Rising, A O Pi, has
everything down to a system. She
drinks one at 4 o’clock and one at
night. Hers must be lemon and she
scorns the hot dogs that are put
out here. She likes them plenty
fancy with all the trimmings.
Charlotte Styles, Chi O, only
drinks one a week but her motto
is “A fresh lime every time.” Her
sorority sister, Mary Lou Nichol:,
was found consuming one of her
bi-weekly cokes. She says sh,e
studies so much that she never has
time to get around for one, and
she doesn’t care of the folks at
home do read this!
Mary Frances Henderson, Gam
ma Phi, is what is known as a
"tempermental coke drinker.” On
days when all is under control she
drinks around five and her mini
mum is one. Even she has to ad
mit, however, that the amount
does not always depend on the
mood but the cash as well. Which
is in the long run all one and the
same.
These people in love are the ones
that are bad on the coke business.
There is no scientific explanation
for this but Gladys Battleson,
AOPi, was among those drinking
the most last year and this year
she only has two or three a week.
