Weekend Events Will Start Thursday Night Weekends should start on Wednesday, says Little Wilbur, (who incidentally, is not Little Willie) or Oregon students are going to start finding out that education is seriously interfering with their social life. One Saturday night earlier in the term, 10 house dances were scheduled—at which time Wilbur stewed around trying to decide which one to attend—then Homecoming was celebrated, making a big social weekend; and NOW, sixteen house dances are planned for the weekend which begins on Thursday. All-Dorm Informal The all-dormitory informal dance scheduled for Thursday evening win ieaiure a surrealistic moui, having large wall murals painted in the modem manner as decora tions. Pauline Baird is the chief artist. Art Holman’s orchestra will play. Pledge Dances Friday night Alpha Omicron Pi will hold its fall pledge dance, with the theme remaining a secret from the pledges. Fred Beardsley’s or chestra has been contracted, and it is to be a costume affair. Kap pa Alpha Theta will carry out the Armistice day motif in its dance, with costumes representing for eign countries. Earl Scott and his patriots will furnish the music. Sigma Nu will have ' a similar theme in the "League of Nations” idea, with costumes. Maurie Bin ford's orchestra is scheduled to play. Although arrangements are not complete, Sigma Alpha Mu’s “Dug ^iiiiiiiiiuuiiiiiiiuiiiiiiiniiiiiiiiiiuiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiuiiiiniiiiimniiiniiiiiiiiiiiiiiiminniiiiiiin'v We have the NEWEST IN UMBRELLAS for this Wet, Rainy Season MELLO SHEEN OIL SILK WHITE AND PASTEL COLORS PETIT DESIGNS $1.49 - $1.69 $2.95 THE BROADWAY INC 20 & SO Blast Broadway ‘ I KiiKiiiiiiiiiniiiiiiiHiiiiiniiiHiiiniiiiiiiiiiiniiHiiiiiuniiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiniiiiiiiii^ out” motif is also in keeping with the holiday. Hawaiian Theme Leaving all memories of wars or peace behind, the Sigma Alpha Epsilon boys find their dance cen tered around Hawaii, with its sea breeze, palm trees and all the rest of the native atmosphere. Carl Rooan and his- “Royal Hawaiian” orchestra will play. Realizing that almost everyone holds a suppressed desire at some time or other, Sigma Chi will give vent to these desires Friday night. All those attending the dance will dress in costume denoting their suppressed desire. Decorations will be illustrative of the theme. Art Holman’s orchestra will play. Saturday night, eight more danc es have been planned. Pi Phi is keeping the theme of their pledge dance a secret, but is having Fred Beardsley’s orchestra furnish the music. Chi Omega’s will turn their house into a Greenwich vil lage, with an air of surrealism. An art colony, with pictures painted by active members, should prove interesting! Jimmy Johnston’s Oregon State “Villagers” will play. Gamma Phi Beta will give an in formal breakfast-dance Saturday morning. A good idea seldom used in the fall, but nevertheless a good idea, says Little Wilbur. Strange Apparitions Theta Chi has gone in for the D.T.’s this fall, for their dance. Strange apparitions will appear all over the house Saturday evening, while Fiji's celebrate the “Yukon Days” with their house done over into an Alaskan igloo. Bud Brown’s orchestra will crack the ice for the affair. •Delta Upsilon goes “Half and Half”1 in their theme. (Must have had difficulties in deciding on a motif.) Costumes will carry out the idea. Earl Scott’s orchestra has been signed. {Please turn to pajjc jour) (./ [NC.

There 1 lay wasting away with a cold (the latest campus fad) and it came, with the most touching note. It seems that the RAE deeply appreciated my suggestion about checking up on his dancing —and instead of repaying with a coke he sent the mum. It’s things like that which make life worth living! Another society-monger got an invitation to the Beta dance be cause her voice sounded so nice over the phone. Here’s hoping we aren’t swamped with aspiring gal re porters now. * * * A Thumbnail Sketch of A Snobbish Coed To be snobbish is to be haught ily contemptuous—or to repel the advances of those regarded as in ferior. The snobbish coed is the sort who is so far above it all un til she finds the people with whom she is associating are her equals— or at least can be of some use to her. In which case she drops the contemptuous pose for a more con j descending one. As she walks along the campus she lowers her eyes when it suits her and raises them again—never to miss a campus hero. When attending a concert she dramatically folds her hands, i closes her eyes—when she would ; rather squirm in her seat and look I uncultured. Having elevated her chin up ward (in a manner I cannot j achieve without extreme self-con sciousness and a stiff neck) she ; attempts to manipulate curbs— not always doing so successfully. She usually comes from a me diocre family in a small town—so instead of talking about them she prefers to lapse into an aloof si lence—again being so bored with it all. The sorority snob has more def inite ideas concerning those whom she wishes to associate with. They must be in the right house, and those who don't “belong” are in complete disdain. (Those who have been offended by this article may repay this week with a cactus.) Woman Editor To Speak on UO Radio Program The place of women in journal ism in Oregon will be discussed by Adelaide Lake, editor of the Sheri dan Sun, in an interview with Professor George Turnbull of the school of journalism faculty to night at 7:30 over KOAC. She will tell of women in the state who have been prominent in the writing field and will make estimates concerning the future of the profession for women. This will be the sixth in a series of in terviews with Oregon editors con ducted by Professor Turnbull. The broadcast will be made from the music building, and will be released over the Corvallis station by remote control. After the broadcast Miss Lake will be entertained by Theta Sig ma Phi, women’s journalism fra ternity, at the home of Professor Turnbull. She will lead a discus sion in problems facing the young reporter just entering active news paper work. Before becoming editor of the Sun, about three years ago, Miss Lake was employed on the staff of the Portland Oregonian for sev eral years. She is a graduate of the University. Foiled Again! After watching the fellows pick fuzz from their suits Saturday night, having danced with a girl wearing one of these angora eve ning jackets, I was all set to warn the gals about them if they want to keep the fellow's temper intact. But you can’t go around issuing such warnings, especially when one of the very fellows you saw picking fuzz and swearing proceeds to plant his pin on the same girl. * * ;j« In the Huddle This is the old, old story of what happens in the huddle—I had just been convinced they must call sig nals, and so had Willie Reynolds, Theta Chi and a football reserve who played in his first varsity game Saturday. He anxiously went into the hud dle only to hear "Theta Chi won the noise parade, Theta Chi won the sign contest—Theta Chi take the ball.” Theta Chi won 3 1-2 yards—and went into the huddle again—"The ta Chi is plenty hot—Theta Chi take the ball again on 46E.” Unaccustomed Tho' I Am...

Lovelorn, Ltd. • ' " | By Burkerickson With locks of love, we affec tionately dedicate this column to Deputy Sheriff-Night Jailer-Sarge Herb Neilson in his cloistered cell at the Lane county jail. Dear, dear Boikercikson: Ah. me! I, too, have my trou bles. For the past year I have been violently in love with a gal. Truly, she is a gorgeous specimen. There is only one thing that really complicates matters. It seems as if she is wrapped up, fig uratively speaking, in a lad from up-state, and therein lies the dif ficulty. un, sme . . . sne speaKS lo me, and once, this summer, she even consented to go to dinner with me while I was passing through Port land'. but that is as far as it goes. W.ill she ever know that she is the ache in my heart? How can I win her over ? Do you suppose it would help if I borrowed a pair of frosh pants and sat on the senior bench in order to .attract her attention, or should I compromise by eating a bar of Palmolive and running down the middle of Thirteenth street with a wild gleam in my eye? Boikie, you’ll have to help me. My heart drips tears of anguish, and all I can find the ability to say is “God Save the King” while may knees quake tremulously and I raise my feeble hand on high in a last, dying effort. You must help me, else all is lost. All yours, all yours. The Sarge. Dear, Dear Sarge: Dry, if you can, your salty tears. Perhaps this girl isn’t worthy of the exalted place you gave her in the sacred corner of your heart. Your “stunts” would certainly cause widespread attention. But might not the girl topple off her pedestal after having caused you to exhibit yourself so? But if you weigh the balance and decide that she really merits such pure and high-minded devo tion, the only course open is to make yourself such a model of righteousness that you will eclipse thoughts of all others in her mind. * * * (Note: This letter was received in response to our statements con cerning platonic friendships sever al weeks ago.) Dear Burkerickson, I think you expect too much of “platonic” friendships among stu dents.

"No, they are just going to the football game,” was the grin ning answer he received. Which brings up the question, "why do the women dress up for home games when the fellows wear cords and sweaters?” The attitude of the males seems to be that they think it's rather silly for the women to put on the dog for a home game, especially when the weather generally is rot ten. "Why dress up merely to sit at a football game, when there's no occasion for it,” was the gist of their opinions. “I can understand why the gals dress for out of town games, but what's the use of having to deck out for home games,” said several of the boys, adding that they should think the coeds would en joy the game more if they didn’t have to worry about someone step ping on their fur coats or knock off their new bonnets. Several girls expressed their sentiments by saying that they’d much rather wear campus clothes to home games, but that “we'd feel’ silly if we did have the nerve to wear saddle shoes, sweaters and skirts, because everyone else wears heels and more dressy apparel. "I can remember when I was a frosh and went to my- first home football game. All the girls in my sorority insisted that I wear my fur coat and really dress for it, .because everyone else did. I’d feel much better in a pair of saddles, and a skirt and sweater and no hat," said one of the gals. “Personally, I see no point in I dressing for home games. After all we don't sit with the fellows and we are not trying to impress our own sex with our smartness, are | "c?" asked one frank female, add ! *ng that she always dressed up for home games, but that she didn't know why she did it. One of the rally girls expressed her opinion, saying that she thought there would be more spirit in the girls’ rooting section if they didn't always have to worry about soiling their clothes on the bench es and keeping their hat cocked at the right angle. Several of the fellows expressed a desire to see the heads of houses get together and make a rule that the girls should wear campus clothes to the home games for next (Please turn to page four) IDEAL for the Cold Weather MITTENS All Wool, 98c Brown, White Black, Red Orange ALSO LEATHER LINED SKIMITTENSINA VARIETY OF COLORS AT 98c WILLIAMS’ STORES, Inc. 1015 Willamette t Ph. 858 Winter s Tale Fitted black liubby wool trimmed in fasliion's fav orite fur — Persian Lamb with its mulching muff 1o warm both hands and heart. $55 For the basis of the eoed's winter wardrobe, t lie Honor Foil nominates a fitted black wool trim med in leopard with the muff to match—a zipper purse is snugly concealed in the side of the muff’s warm!
