Law Breakers May Expect No Leniency By FRITZ TlMMEN Offenders of Oregon's revered traditions throughout the coming days will be highly honored, though they may not think so at the time. It isn’t every malefac tor who can receive his chastise ment with a weapon especially constructed for the purpose. Ji mRathbun and his Order of the “O” men have constructed a paddle especially for the purpose of reminding tradition breakers that they shouldn’t do a second time what they just did. According to Rathbun, hacking will begin Tuesday, November 25 and continue throughout the week with the exception of Thursday, when students will be occupied with ROTC drill. Hackable offenses include not speaking to all persons on “hello walk,” stepping on the Oregon seal, not wearing class pants and rooter’s lids, smoking on the old campus, and walking on the grass. Even women will not be im mune from punishment, Rathbun declared. Law breakers will be imersed in the fountain between Fenton hall and Deady. Order of the “O” men will at tend a luncheon at Gerlinger Fri day, November 28. Oregon letter men plan a parade at 1:45 p.m. following this. Robert Bradshaw, captain of Oregon’s 1914 football team, will act as toastmaster. “There will be no long-winded speeches at the lunch,” Rathbun stated. “It is supposed to be more or less of a bull session.” Professors and students have gathered for the University of California library some 200,000 pages of valuable source mater ial relating to the history of Cali fornia.
