M. F. McClain, manager of the

The closest anyone had to an
answer was Campus Policeman
O. L. Rhinesmith, who said the
Eugene fire department, gave it to
the school. The fire laddies said,
“No, it didn’t come from here,” but
suggested a call to the mainte
nance department.
Bob Keene declared that some
one had given it to the school or
some students had stolen it.
Dean Eric W. Allen of the jour

W. F. G. Thacher, professor of

that he had been on the campus j

Majoress
Efficient
Mary Anderson
Started Twirling
In Eugene High
By JANET PIPER
Just who is this girl who stepped
from a giant-sized make-believe
duck at last Saturday’s football
game and caused thousands of
Webfoot eyes to follow the band
about the field?
She’s attractive blonde Mary
Anderson of Eugene, who besides
being an expert drum majoress, is
as friendly and likeable as anyone
you might meet on the campus.
Unlike many majorettes, Mary is
tall and slim. Authorities on the
subject consider this an asset, since
the taller the majorette, the bet
ter she can be seen on the field.
It’s little wonder, then, that Mary
considers her seven and a half
inches over five feet to be quite
an asset. And anyone engaging in
such strenuous exercise doesn't
need to worry about reducing prob
lems, least of all the slender Ore
gon drum majoress, who admits
she is two pounds underweight.
Mary is majoring in physical
education, hopes someday to teach
twirling. Certainly she is well
equipped, having achieved the dis
tinction of winning the national
regional contest for drum majors
in Portland last year.
Surprisingly enough, Mary has
not been a drum majorette ever
since she was “so high.” It was
only a year ago, upon entering a
class for twirlers, that Mary dis
covered her ability to wield a
baton. From that time on, it took
hard work and long hours of prac
tice to reach her present skill. Her
class at Eugene high school start
ed her off, but Mary feels she
owes a great deal to Les Harger
for his help and encouragement.
One would expect a PE major to
be sports-minded, and Mary, who
loves swimming in particular, and
all other sports in general, is no
exception to the rule; but one
would not expect anyone with such
| a consuming interest in physical
education to be an expert seam
stress and tailor. Mary loves to
sew, and finds it a welcome change
after hard hours of practice.
The University of Oregon has a
drum majoress it can well be
proud of, not just because she's
the top finalist in contests, or be
cause she gives the band new zip,
but because she’s a loyal student
and a “good fellow.”

ON THE CAMPUS
Crowded, Noisy Jallopies
A’gin Reg’lations! Shux!!
—
Of course, it's a lot of fun to
I ride about the campus in a car
packed—from the front seat to the.
spare tire—with cheering passen
gers. But, unfortunately, there’s
a law agin it, according to O. L.
Rhinesmith, campus cop.
It seems that Rule No. 1 of the
traffic regulations card reads that
"carrying students on the outside
of car, running boards, fenders,
or back, is prohibited." Another
interesting detail is that “not more
than three people may occupy the
front seat.”
Too Much Tooting
Horn-tooting is also a current
entertainment, and it's a shame,
because “sounding of the horn for
other than warning signals” comes
under the heading of “unnecessary
noise” in the list of traffic regu
lations—and is also prohibited.
Of the probable 600 cars on the
campus, an increase of 35 or 40
cars over last year. 560 of them
have registered. Rhinesmith urges
that the rest should be registered
at once in Friendly hall.
The last rule will no doubt have
a bad effect on the “personal ini
tiative" of rally leaders, but never
theless, hereafter all rallies must
be okeyed through Dean Virgil
Earl's office before they occur.
Special Course Given
For Best Students
In Freshman English
The elite of the English composi
tion classes may complete their
English requirement in two terms
this year instead of the three ordi
narily required.
Students showing exceptional
promise may, upon the approval
of their instructor, register in the
special “star” English classes,
where, by taking larger assign
ments, they complete the gradua
tion requirement in but two terms.
The forty-odd eligibles for this
year's classes are to be placed in
two classes as was done under
the same plan.
Adjustments are also being
made in the English K (corrective
English) classes. Students placed
in English K on the basis of their
placement exam grades but whose
work has shown that they do not
need corrective English, are being
placed in English composition
classes, while persons in the lat
ter classes who evidence need of
“brushing up” in fundamental Eng
lish are being advised to transfer
to English K.
