Nizolius' Writings
Subject of Lecture
Writers have been turning out
bat! imitations of great literature
ever since the Renaissance, be
lieves Quirinus Breen, professor of
history, who will give tonight's
browsing room lecture at 7:30.
Breen, speaking on "The Apes
of Cicero'’ will discuss Nizolius,
Renaissance author whose writ
ings closely copied those of Cicero,
the great Roman writer.
During the Renaissance people
believed that the only way to be
come a fine writer of Latin was
to copy Cicero. Nizolius wrote a
Latin dictionary based entirely on
Cicero's works. It is still used to
day, although the last edition was
printed in 1820.
Nizolius wrote several philoso
phical works which Breen also
will discuss.

(a benevolent organizations de
voted to the preservation of Ore
gon's hallowed traditions I.
Men violators will receive hacks,
paint the ‘‘O'1 on Skinner's Butte

termed "VVrbfoots," many don't
"take to water like ducks.” Ho
here aie a few tips if you want to
avoid the "wet Bluff" this week:
0 Frosh men: Wear green and
yellow hate whenever on campus.
0 Frosh women: Green hair
ribbons are In order, day and
night.
0 Everyone Is to keep off the
grass on the campus grounds.
0 Everyone says hello to
strangers on the "Hello walk"
which leads from 13th and Uni
versity st. to the SU.
The names of violators involved
will be published in the Emerald
as a reminder that they are to re
port to Fenton pool at 12:30 p. m.
Thursday and Friday for their
medicine (some report that it
tastes like water.)
In past years some difficulty
was experienced in getting the
shy, but guilty, girls to turn up
at the pool as requested. This re
sulted In the bothersome and un
fortunate task of leading, some
times forceably, the reluctant girls
to the Kenton hall site. IJy the
wav. this is a direct contradiction
to the old saying: "You can lead
a frosh to water, but you can't
make him drink.”
Another bit of advice, if you do
happen to get caught vvith your
ribbon or hat off, you've had it;
so surrender and show' up for your
punishment. No spot on campus
Will be safe from the ever-watch
ing eye of the consciencious, seri
ous minded authoritative body of
lettermen .
One year the O-men were faced
with the distasteful task of storm
ing the Carson hall fortress In or
der to root out a renegade hand
of violators who had holed up in
Carson f». The action was taken
strictly in the line of duty.
Actually, the lettermen are just
a group of kind-hearted fellows
who would like nothing better than
to have the whole week go by
without having to discipline a
single violator.
Library Exhibits
Valuable Papers
An exhibit representing1 the de
velopment of newspaper* in Ore
gon is now on display in the Ore
gon collection on the third floor
of the library, state* Martin
Schmit, curator of the Oregon
room.
Among the papers being shown
are a facsimile of the first news
paper print'-d in Oregon, volume
one, number one of the Oregon
Spectator. An original copy is
owned by the library but it would
be damaged by sunlight if put cm
display, says Schmitt.
Other newspapers on exhibit in
clude a copy of the New York
Herald Tribune carrying the story
of Lincoln's assasination and sev
eral old Oregonians and Eugene
papers.
The most valuable newspaper Is
the only known copy of the Grant
County paper. The other copies
were destroyed by a fire several
years ago. The exhibit will be
shown until the end of the term,
according to .Schmit.
