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

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.

On Being a Columnlsi—
Which isn't such a bad racket
no matter what they say. Espe
cially when your readers respond
with mums! And so timely. 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

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.

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.”

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.
How does a gal with a fire for
someone in Paducah figure that a
boy wants to take her around and
play second on someone else’s fid

Why Do Girls Dress
For Games, Men Ask
By BETTY HAMILTON
The two men stood on the cor
ner, watching the parade of fur
coats, veiled hats, and high heels,
passing by—"What is that, a fash
ion parade?" asked one to the
other. "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
