JF we spent more time telling you about our
lives down here during the year we'd be
better able to regulate our lives. Probably
the collective grade standards of the collec
tive group of students would come up if we
listened to our collective mothers. There
would be less flitting around from one ac
tivity to another trying to be “activity men,”
if we would talk more with you. Our social
manners would more easily take on that
“smoothness” we all acquire by the trial and
error method.

queen, the Junior prom, the canoe fete and
hearing the Helen Jepson concert, we’ll prob
ably have more to say to each other that will
be interesting to both of ns.

you. Mrs. Pengra.
Don’t wait as long to visit us again,

Origin of Weekend
I University Day Sidewalk... one of the early traditions on campus be
fore Junior weekend came into being consisted of laying such walks.
Deady’s Walks Reveal
Junior Weekend Origin
The inscription, “University Day,’’ on several of the walks
around Deady hall stands as evidence of the origin of Oregon’s
famous “Junior weekend.’’
The original University Day which became Junior weekend in
1908, was the day on which all men turned out to “beautify’’ the
campus, planting trees and making other improvements.
President Prince L. Campbell was the founder of the day. He
turned what had been Junior day, when the juniors tried to hoist
their flag in the northeast tower of Villard, into a campus im
provement day.
While the men worked on the improvements, the coeds pre
pared a campus dinner. This in later years became the present
campus luncheon.
Following the dinner came the Junior Prom which at first was
but a small dance with few guests. The Canoe Fete was added
several years later.

game.
There will be fewer reserves for
the All-Stars. Ned Simpson is a
reserve end, and Chuck Bracher
can be shifted to a wing position if
necessary. Jim Sickle, frosh pros
pect for next year, and Elmer Wil
liams will be ready to fill tackle
gaps. The aforementioned Hurney
can play either at tackle or guard.
Chan Berry, all-around handy
man, can fill in at any position on
the line. Bob Davis and Steve Fow
ler, frosh fullbacks for next year,
will be sent in to relieve the backs.
Jim Dimit, a frosh player of sev
eral years ago, has also been used
in backfield practice drills.
Playing time for the game is still
undecided. The first half will be
run under regulation time rules,
with fifteen minute quarters ob
served. The second half will prob
ably be shorter—because of dark
i ness and, as co-coach Tony Amato
of the All-Stars remarked, “be
cause weil feel like quitting about
then.”
