BA School Replies
To Legal Challenge
OFFICIAL REPLY TO THE
LAW SCHOOL CHALLENGE
Ho Hum! Spring has come and
the Law School Larvae have
grown up into great big anemic
athletes, and it has been brought
to our attention that the infantile,
immature, shyster students have
again challenged the B. A. School
(Better Athletes) to a game of
softball in the near future — Ho
Hum! Tomorrow, isn't it?
It is only after two days of
heated discussion in a deadlocked
decision, with pity in our hearts
and remorse in our souls, that we,
the B.A. School (Better Activi
ties) condescend, stoop, or waive
the privilege of rank and dignity
to associate with such a motley
aggregation of drunken, spend
thrift, scoundrels, scallyways, and
skunks for the duration of a game
of softball—the mechanics and
intricacies of which are surely
beyond their comprehension.
Record Cited
, For years, yea, for verily eons,
we have inflicted upon them such
decisive drubbings the very dis
grace of which has seriously de
creased the enrollment of said
second-hand diploma-mill to our
rear. We sadly fear that if we
are not more humane in our chas
tisement in the future that there
will no longer be such a C grade
institution. However, we have
made no special arrangements
with the Board of Higher Educa
tion to make said ex-institution
one of the branches of the B.A.
School (Benignant Association)
in order to create a greater choice
of electives for our freshmen.
LL.D. s, J.D.’s, etc., et al can be
obtained by taking one term of
Professor Riddlesbarger's busi
ness law course.
We wish to say, to*o, that we
were not the least bid befuddled
by the stilted, musty, outmoded,
pompous, bombastic combinations
of Greek, Latin, and Yiddish epi
thets and legal terminology of
that verbose document that be
smeared the north wall of the
third floor of our beloved institu
tion. We must admit, however,
that one of our yearlings mistook
it for a daily assignment and re
marked, “translating that tripe
was a pipe.” ’Tis a shame indeed
that a more constructive use can
not be made of these foreign dic
tionaries.
“Hello Walk”
Until recently—1937 B.F. (Be
fore Fenton) -^-Oregon still main
tained one of its most highly
prized traditions—that of saying
"hello” to everyone along our
once famous “Hello Walk.” But
now, with that blighted area at
the southern terminus of the
walk, the tradition has gone to
pot. Why? Well, no self respect
ing woman or student will con
tinually subject herself to the
raucous whistling, lewd stares
and childish quips of the anemic,
stoop-shouldered goons loitering
about ankle deep in Sensation and
AvaiOi. cigarette butts.
It must be remembered that we
are men of industry and business,
and any time taken from such
arduous endeavors in order to
satisfy such a brazen challenge
is to be lauded as a distinct sac
rifice on our part, but are always
ready to accommodate even such
Inspection Shows
ROIC Facilities
To Be Inadequate
Stressing the inadequate facil
ities of the military department,
Maor William L. Tydings, federal
inspector of the college ROTC de
partments, wound up his three
day visit with several comments
on the Oregon unit.
Pointing out that a heavy
shower had forced the Thursday
parade drill to be disbanded, Ma
or Tydings said that the Univer
sity needs a iarge drill hall simi
lar to the barracks at Oregon
State.
In company with President
Donald M. Erb, Major Tydings
inspected the junior and senior
military students Wednesday. He
complimented Colonel Robert M.
Lyon, head of the ROTC, on the
system of instruction used.
an insignificent challenge as this.
Finally, the proceeds of the
game will be used to send your
esteemed “dishonest John” Hollis
and “Cyclops” O'Connell to the
blind school where their ability to
call ’em will not be so hotely con
tested.
Let’s play ball!!
