They may not be enthusiastic supporters of the traditional Webfoots. and they may want a change although the vote doesn't even show this but it Is a cer tainty that the names listed on the ballots In opposition to Web foots are not wanted. Down-town sports writers please take notice. Pioneers Is not, nor has it ever been, the name for Oregon's athletic teams. If only 47 out of the 2500 Ore gon students are in favor of the name now, it Is extromely un likely that Pioneers will EVER supplant Webfoots. That the much publicized Pioneers should take second placo to the com paratively new and unknown Trappers In the campus poll should be convincing enough cvl tlenco to its most rabid supporter that It Is unwanted. A letter to tho editor printed In yesterday's Emerald shows what foolishness we have been indulging in by poking good humored fun at the names chosen to form the opposition to the present name. He suggests the name Oxen as a better name than all the others. In support he savs of it: "It Is short and therefore fits intn headlines, it is in harmony with those olden days when Pioneers and Trappers snilini' for the next few weeks.
