Tliat's not KASTSJDB, WKSTSIDK Unconsciously, anil most unexpectedly, the state of Ore i;im received about u million dollars worth of advertising, flout piiRe position, in the newspapers of the country yes terday and today. And the football team of the state college ' i.t Corvallis wrote the "copy" in no uncertain terms. Until yesterday we would have ventured the guess that numerous people along- the Atlantic sealioaid, and in New York City specifically, labored under the impression that the Pacific Northwest was a wild and uncivilized area where the conditions of the original ThanksifivinK were 1'eirularlv re produced in 1928. And since advertising is merely one; form of education, and education is the spreading of useful knowledge not previously possessed, we think it safe to say iliat Oregon did some very effective advertising in New York and its environs yesterday. Of course there are those in that part of the country who Ktill contend, no doubt, that the action of the 0. S. C. foot ball team against New York Univei-sity was thoroughly wild1 and uncivilized. One can hardly blame strict partisans of! thctpast for such a conclusion, in view of the final score, but we hold to the opinion that such a fact is educational in I itself. ; Considering the O. S. C.-New York University football: game even after many hours of reflection and wonder, onei still finds it difficult to express oneself coherently on the subject. 0. S. C. alumni who babble on and on, or who sit staring into space with a fixed facial expression that is u cross Ix'tween a yell leader's plea and a personification of the Christmas hpirit these can be excused. It's a wonder ful malady and they'll recover in subsequent years. How such an outstanding, overwhelming victory happened can only be explained in the human eiiuasion. New York Vas classed, and still is, as the liest team of the east. O. S. C. v.as listed as a very ordinary eleven from the Pacific coast with two or three decisive defeats to its record. It still has the defeats but it lilted itself far beyond the class of the vciy ordinary. It was by that effort, over what had seemed to be insur mountable barriers to gridiron experts, that the team from (oi-vallis did it.s effective advertising of Oregon and the Northwest. Kegaidlcss of one's interest in or knowledge of the football sport, there can be and is a state-wide enthu nasm for this Thanksgiving day affair between Oregon and New York yesterday. And Union county, with four men taking part, is not without serial honor. Zot and Tyeei COPVRIAHT BY INTERWOVEN 8T0CKINQ COMPAUT The Ideal Gift For Men 35c to $1.50 N. K. West & Co., Inc.
