Eugene’s Annual Diamond Opener Is Scheduled for Tomorrow
We Don’t Wanta Mince
Woids, Nor Beat Bushes,
We Accept, Say BA Boys
OFFICIAL REPLY TO THE LAW SCHOOL CHALLENGE
In our characteristic, to-the-point, straightforward, time-saving,
business-like manner, we make reply to the Shysters’ challenge,
that verbose, but incomprehensible document that besmeared the
third page of the Oregon Daily Emerald on April 19, 1939. At the
outset, we wish to say that we were not befuddled by the stilted,
outmoded, legal terminology which obviously permeated the minds
of the authors of that atrocious creation of adolescence. It is quite
apparent that at least those two persons, typical of the so-called
“law students” who infest that second-hand diploma-mill to our
immediate east, are nothing but sublime mediocrities, intoxicated by
the exuberance of their own verbosity.
So They Call It a Dance
As to the comparison drawn between shysters and business stu
dents in regard to personal characteristics, we recall with amuse
ment the comments which appeared in the Oregon Emerald prior to
that annual pornographic, alcoholic, sex-fest, commonly known as
the “Lawyers’ Ball.” In speaking of these “hard-working, serious
minded, sober and celibate men of dignified mien,” one coed said
with a shudder of disgust, “Going to a law school dance in a strap
less formal is like throwing catnip to a cage of tigers.” Another
contemptuously remarked, “A law school dance is a conclusive
argument for the return of prohibition.”
They Avoid the Law School
In regard to the charge that the Business Administration stu
dents have diverted the “stream of feminine pulchritude,” it is
interesting to note that the very quintessence of feminine loveli
ness still passes the front portals of Commerce hall enroute from
Oregon to Deady, and that only the law school is avoided. It appears
illogical that these beauties would continue to pass the Business
Administration school, were it not for the obvious attraction of
the array of Herculean manliness assembled there in studies dis
cussion of contemporaneous business problems.
Lawyers Have ‘Fish Eye’
Furthermore, it is not difficult to understand why University
coeds avoid 13th street in the vicinity of Fenton hall. No self
respecting woman will continuously subject herself to the lewd
stares, raucous whistling, and juvenile quips of anemic, concave
chested, round-shouldered, semi-animated tome-thumbers, precar
iously draped over upper-story window sills.
We Accept!
Finally, we accept the brazen challenge tendered by the attor
neys for the “plaintiffs.” In previous years, our stalwart athletes
have unfailingly brushed arised the feeble efforts of the challeng
ers’ ineffectual fanning-mills and delivered them a sound drub
bing, despite the partisan officiating of “Dishonest John” Hollis.
Should the “plaintiffs” be so foolhardy as to present their emaciated
bodies on the Field of Honor at the appointed time, May 6, 1939,
words cannot express the pleasure our gallant lads shall take in
administering the customary thorough thrashing.

Graduate Opinion Favors
Organization of Alumni
Group for Social Purposes
Possibility of accomplishing a long-suggested organization oi
graduate students on the campus appeared imminent last night aftei
the release of a survey aimed at a cross-section of graduate opinior
j on the subject.
The survey stated its purpose as “organizing the graduate students
of the University of Oregon for social purposes.” A group of foul
questions was posed, with students
indicating their response as yes
and no on each question.
| Culminating a long period of
disorganized discussion, the survey
appeared as the first positive ac
tion looking to the eventual forma
tion of a graduate organization.
Graduates, realizing that they have
had- common pursuits and inter
ests somewhat outside the com
mon run of campus activity, ex
pressed themselves almost unani
mously in favor of forming a close
knit group instead of remaining
in their present state of complete
disorganization.
Results of the poll, by questions:
1. Are you in favor of an organ
ization of graduate students for
social purposes? Yes, 50. No. 5.
2. Would you take part in activ
ities sponsored by such an' organi
zation? Yes, 49. No. 6.
3. Would you like to have, and
would you patronize, a graduate
ball? Yes, 32. No. 19.
4. Are you willing to contribute
to the financial support of activi
ties sponsored by such an organi
zation? Yes, 28. No, 12. Undecid
ed, 13.
Splashers Drill
For Pageant
Under the combined direction of
Miss Warrene Eastburn, of the
physical education department, and
! Ned Johns, men's swimming coach,
Oregon’s top-notch men and wo
men swimmers held a stiff work
out for their coming water pag
eant May 2 and 3, last night in
the Gerlinger pool.
The joint meeting was in the
form of a general rehearsal and
the theme of “Duck Splashes,”
which is to act out and interpret
the highlights of the past school
year, was sketched in for the
swimmers and a few numbers were
worked out in more detail.
Combining the two groups for
the first time, fundamental forma
tions were worked out and some
effective routines were learned.
Most practice was done on the
“Rushing” and “Wtooden Shoes”
numbers.
Margaret Young, general chair
man of the pageant also assisted
in supervising the pageant work
out.

Court Series
Action Against
Jack McLaughlin
To Be April 27
First action in the case of Wal
lace Kaapcke vs. Jack McLaugh
lin was taken yesterday when Mr.
McLaughlin received summons to
appear in the Lane county court
house Thursday evening, April 27.
This trial is the first of the law
school’s moot trials. Orlando John
Hollis, professor of law, has charge
of the trials and will act as judge.
Mr. Kaapcke has authorized his
attorneys, Tony Amato and Stan
ley R. Darling, to sue Mr. Mc
Laughlin for $200.
Kaapcke Has a Car
Mr. Kaapcke left his car at Mc
Laughlin’s garage with instruc
tions to lubricate the car, change
the oil in the crankcase, check the
tires and battery, and fill the tank
with gasoline. When Mr. Kaapcke
called for his car, Mr. McLaughlin
said everything was O.K.
But when Mr. Kaapcke was driv
ing his car to Salem, the motor
stopped. It was found that there
was no oil in the crankcase, the
engine had overheated and had
frozen, and a new motor would be
required.
McLaughlin Won’t Pay
McLaughlin refused to admit lia
bility or make an adjustment.
Orval Etter and Michi Yasui will
defend Mr. McLaughlin.
Other law school students tak
ing part in the trial are: Frank
Nash, bailiff and notary; Alan Da
vis, clerk; Bernard Kliks, reporter
and sheriff; Mel Rooney, Edwin
Welsh, witnesses for the plaintiff;
and Carl Helm, George Smith, wit
nesses for the defendant.
Students interested in being
jurymen should see Alan Davis.
