Class feeling was forgotten and Freshmen joined in with upper classmen to show their loyalty to the U niversity and her football team. The affair was the larg est of its kind ever held here, which speaks well for student spirit, consid ering the fact that the game which it preceded was the most unim portant on O regon's schedule. By seven o'clock fully two hundred and fifty boys had congregated at the dorm itory ready for the celebration. Under the leadership of A rthur \ an Dusen and his aides’ they formed into line and marched down Eleventh stieet singing songs, burning lights, shouting yells, and in general giving vent to their exuberance. A rriving at W il lamette street they broke into the serpentine dance, and for half an hour held forth along the street which was lined with a great crowd of onlookers. The Eugene band here joined them and after playing Boola Boola, led the way back to Kincaid field where the fresh men had prepared a monster bonfire. The grandstand and sidewalks were filled with co-eds. and townpeople who had come out to witness the dem on stration. The students formed around a raised platform, and amid wild en thusiasm , speeches were here given by Regent Friendly, ex-football m an ager Dave Graham, Ray Goodrich, Bill H ayw ard, Coach F rost and George H ug. They were all marked by an en thusiastic feeling and calculated to a- rouse in the hearers a still greatei O regon spirit. At the close of the speeches the band again enlivened the .scene with appropriate music, alter which the students danced the serpen tine on the field, finishing it with a great “Oregon and Osky W ow W ow when they dispersed to meet again at the m orrow ’s game. th in g fo r U n iv e r s ity W illa m e tte W o rk R.
