U of Colorado
Tries Unique
Political System
By Anna Mae Halverson
In hopes of making- campus poli
tics more democratic, the associ
ated student body of the Univer
sity of Colorado has adopted a
system which does away with the
old form of elections and much
of the existing political combina
tions.
Representation under this new
plan falls into three categories—
representation of departments, col
leges, and schools in the Univer
sity; representation of sophomore,
junior, and senior classes, and also
representation of the activity or
ganizations.
The plan was drawn up and ap
proved last spring after a nine
month survey by the ASUC com
mission.

Sailor ROTC
Over at the University of Mon
tana, they feed their football
players on prize-winning vegeta
bles, says the Montana Kaimin.
Some of the local business men
contributed to the training table a
whole truckload of squash, pota
toes, apples, cabbage, pumpkins,
tomatoes, rhubarb, and other fruit
and vegetables which had taken
honors at the Ravalli County fair.
Cucumbers were off the menu,
however, because they were a trifle
wilted when the truck finally
came in. In addition to consuming
the pride of Ravalli, the team did
well on local food.

Something new at the Univer
sity of California at Los Angeles
is the estaWlishment of a Naval
ROTC this semester which will
enable 76 freshmen and five-yeai
sophomores to train for positions
in the Naval Reserve corps. The
four-year course will be known as
naval science and tactics.
Webfoot Crowds Turn Out
En Masse to Yell,Dance
As Pre-game Steam Rises
BULLETIN
In a special flash received last
night a San Francisco sports
broadcaster picked Oregon to win
over UCLA in today’s game.
If the crowd at the outdoor ral
ly earlier in the evening was large
and enthusiastic it had nothing on
the struggling mass of humanity
which packed Gerlinger for the
rally dance last night.
While no official count was
taken, it was freely pronounced by
unofficial observers that Gerlinger
was crowded—jammed with vocif
erous Webfoot well-wishers. Few
home games have ever been so
spontaneously boosted, both at ral
ly and dance.
Art Holman’s music kept the
festivities in the proper mood
throughout the evening, while a
typical rally-dance intermission
program furnished the reminder
that behind it all was Tex Oliver’s

The biggest, most spirited foot
ball rally in recent UO history was
accorded the Duck eleven and their
coach last night on the eve of
their first home game of the sea
son when team supporters from
every corner of the campus gath
ered in front of Johnson hall to
offer their noisy best wishes for
today's game and officially wel
come the UCLA Bruins to the Uni
versity of Oregon.
From three directions on the
campus a torch parade of hun
dreds of noise-making students
swung through Eugene streets to
offer proof of “that new Oregon
spirit” which is the theme of this
school year.
On the porch of Johnson hall,
Paul Cushing, yell leader, was
ready with his program of cheers
and songs. Pep speeches were
given by Coach Tex Oliver of Ore

money through loans in the

Let us keep our money and our
troops at home and keep out of
war,” Colonel Lyon said.
A rousing cheer from the 102

this statement.

British Woman
Cabinet Member
To Speak Here
Miss M. G. Bondfield
Speaks at Assembly
Tuesday in Igloo
Margaret Grace Bondfield, the
only woman ever to have been a
member of the British cabinet in
the 800 years of English history,
except the queens of England, will
address the students at an assem
bly in McArthur Court, Tuesday,
October 4, at 11 o’clock, on present
day labor problems and the inter
national crisis.
Miss Bondfield started her ca
reer as a shop assistant, and rose
rapidly as a trade union leader.
She has been active in the cause
of world peace and served on many
international commissions, repre
senting the British government
and the trade union congress at
the international labor confer
ences.

(Please turn to page four)
ceding the visitors not one inch.
They have the “Oliver Twist,”
long a victorious system. As their
headman, they have Tex Oliver,
one of the headiest tacticians on
the Pacific slope, and they have
the element of surprise in their
favor.
New Attack Due
Even the most inveterate Ore
gon fan will not see anything
resembling Webfoot teams of the
past few years when Tex’s boys
dig their cleats into the greens
ward of Hayward field. True, most
of the players will be from last
year’s squad, but everything else
is new. i
A new spirit, both among team
members and among rooters; a
new offensive that is as varied as
the nationalities in Czechoslo
vakia; and new uniforms of green
[ and canary yellow with even the
shoelaces yellow will be Oliver’s
I innovations.
Tex Predicts Even Game
Coach Oliver, himself, expects
an even game, and he has made
the statement that with a few
breaks, the walloping Webfoots
can win their second conference
game in a row.
As for the game itself, nothing
is certain except that passes will
fill the air as two of the most
aerial-minded teams in the nation
take to the ozone. UCLA ranked
eighth in the nation last year as a
passing team.
Both the Webfoots and Bruins
limbered up yesterday with
Spaulding sending his gridmen
through an open session on the
Hayward turf in the early part of
the afternoon. The Webfoots fol
lowed the Bruins and locked the
gates.
Immediately following the UCLA
practice, Spaulding announced his
starting lineup. Prominent among
the absentees was Hal Hirshon,
veteran and most versatile of the
Bruin backs. Joe L. Brown, son
