That the welcome will be a hearty one and sincere goes without saying. For those who return this year, it might be pointed out that they picked a good year. Seldom has a Homecoming attracted so much campus and state interest; and it has been a long time since a Homecoming football game hit a full holiday on which to he played. Visitors will find the campus Ilomecoming minded to the last soul. In considering an event such as Home coming there is a problem in choosing what to say which would not be true of any Home coming. Welcome is taken for granted; that is part of it. That the school has come a long way is to be expected. What the state thinks about the football game is evident in the way McArthur court ticket office has been swamped with orders. * « # thing which might be pointed out now is that it is definitely good, for both sides of the equation, to have this contact of differ ent worlds. l’artieularly seniors, among under graduates, will find this injection of outside ideas beneficial. At the same time those re turning will gather material for a clearer picture of what is going on here and a better conception of tlie problems at hand. And it is good to be back — a warm feeling of be longing. lieturning alumni, especially if they have been out of school for some time, find them selves in a rather odd and little-realized posi tion. They find, according to some of their own statements, that what they were when they were in school has been forgotten. They find themselves alone in a crowd. They are faced with reality after idealizing the high spots of their college careers in memory. * * # gl'T they return just as loyal as ever, enthusiastic as any freshman, ready to make up for lost time in doing what there is to do and learning what they have missed. Undergraduates can learn much from watch ing the alums come back to the alma mater. For a case in point, watch them sing “Mighty Oregon’’ again—full loud and clear, it leaves a lasting impression. That the weekend will be crowded is evi dent—no one will ever be able to do every thing he would like to jam into the program. Naturally what is desirable is for this year to be the greatest over. The welcome having been disposed of, the mutual benefit pointed out, about all there is left is to hope for those returning that those idealized memories will be lived up to in real ity here in these short days. It’s a large order, but fine machinery is primed and ready. This Week’s Church News By BETTY JANE THOMPSON While guns of the second World war continue to boom on Europe's battlefield, the signing of the armistice (a temporary cessation of hostilities) of the first World war will be observed in many of the local churches.

They were to depict scenes or events of previous years in an attempt to bring back recollec tions of days at Oregon to visiting alums. The judging was very close on all of the signs as all topics chosen were very well de veloped. The judges based their decisions on what they considered to be the best workmanship and the most ingenuity. Work had been going on in an effort to complete the signs since Thursday afternoon.

It is just as foolish to pin ; the cause of trouble to any sin gle incident or quirk in the trend of our times. Human nature on the job with her usual 50 per cent of bad behavior always turns out to be the cause of wars or any other form of disorder. Human Nature Cause Therefore, if we understand the ingrained peculiarities that are bred into the peoples of conflicting nations, we should by theory understand their be havior and propresy their ac tion. Conclusions gathered by such reasoning are not highly complimentary to anyone, es- J pecially the British. Europe seems to be about : fed up with Briton's tea-time imperialism, and coarse tweeds, old pipes, English brogue, no longer have the same effect on the continent as they have among our college age youth. England’s record of land grabbing makes Hitler’s policy look silly, and her sharp shooter methods of internation al intrigue scare even the smooth Frenchman when a conference takes place. It is the nature of an Eng lishman to play ball with the right people, and his strenuous methods of keeping up appear ances has been almost success ful in hiding a “back to the wall” spirit that has won most of her battles whether above or below board. It is not strange, therefore, that many people in this coun try are outspoken about a de sire to sec someone take a fall out of that “four flusher,” t John Bull. Germany is not such a dif ficult problem to the student of diuman nature. Her out standing characteristic is a ba sic mysticism that is not as matter of fact as that of the Japanese, yet still provides the German with enough couraye to secretly believe lie belongs to a superior race. Also like Japan, Germany is a military nation, with a long list of uprisings comparable to the present one. Her vitality | prevents suppression, but the combination of a mystic per sonality and a militaristic char acter prevents her from win ning for long, and, as England, making wrong into right. No one has been able to j change human nature as yet, and few institutions, except re- j ligion, have ever altered its course. Some of our senators claim the distinction of having a solution to trouble in gener- j al, but some smart guy tacks | a "raise in pay rider" on the | bill and the house puts us back into the dark ages again. Beavers Leave 'O' Undisturbed Either OSC has reformed or the freshmen's strategy last night saved the complexion on the “O" I on Skinner's butte and scared the Beavers back to their pond.

Noise parade judges were Mrs.1 Harris Ellsworth, I>r. Edward Gray, and George Turnbull and were located in the law offices of E. O. Immel in the First National Bank building at the corner of Willamette and Broadway. The judges cast what is understood to be a unanimous ballot for the first place float on the basis of ingenu ity and noise producing power. Honorable mention was given to: the Alpha Delta Gamma-Sigma Al pha Mu float and second mention was awarded the Delta Gamma Beta Theta Pi combination.
