HOMECOMING EDITION

Tempus Fidgits BY THE EDITOR the blacksmith still stood, "No man's land"was a nonentity and men not only packedknives but knew how to hone them.
About the time that hors d'oeuvrc was more than a hunk of fish on toast andsardines were shipped from the Mediterranean, not the Columbia, Oregon students
staged walk-a-rounds, flag rushes, tore down fences, greetedone another on "Hello lane," shoved in push-ball battles. These
were their traditions.
About the time that Dean Virgil D. Earl was a freshman,women wore shirt-waists because they would fit any form and
looked mannish. Six volumes of Mark Sullivan's "Our Times,"reveal much more than long skirts as indications of customs
in 1900.
About the turn of the century, according to Sullivan, theBoston Herald advertised "Boarders Wanted; turkey dinner,
20 cents; supper or breakfast. 15 cents." In the Trenton, N. ].,Times, the United States hotel quoted rates of $1 per day;
furnished rooms 50 cents?horse sheds for country shoppers."A Chicago department store sold ladies' muslin nightgowns for
19 cents, corsets for 50 cents, men's suits for $5.50. Ladycashiers were hired at $8 per week in Los Angeles and eastern
shops displayed skirts for skating which were short enough "to
avoid entanglement with the skates."About the time that the Puget Sound
prospectors were shipping for the Nomegold fields, the people in Kansas were in
arms for fear the street cars proposed torun over the Arkansas river bridge would
frighten the horses. Not even a word wasmentioned in the Baltimore Sun about
automobiles, but columns of advertise-ments on "broughams, rockaways, Ger-
mantowns, opera wagonettes, phaetons,buggies and tally-hos." "Quick mastery
of the waltz and the German" werepromised in the Sun by one dancing mas-
ter.About the time that "Roosevelt" meant
the man who packed a big stick andspoke softly, the word "radio" was un-
known, "aviator" was unheard, "incometax" was not tied in with March 15th.
"Insulin and 606, relativity, and quantumtheory" were in the future. Farmers had
no tractors and seamen had no oil-burningengines. Bankers had no federal reserve
system, politicians had no direct primaries,congressmen had no League of Nations,
and women had few rights. Automats,mah jong, cross-word puzzles, chocolate
sundaes and birth control had not enteredthe American pictures of words, nor had
Stuart Chase tyrannized talk with hisscience of semantics.

TRADITION IS CUSTOM
What's the point? Well, all of thesecustoms and costumes exploited in the
1900's are outmoded today. Since ourcampus traditions are a disguised form of
custom, then we feel safe in admittingthey have rightly gone out of style. But
we still have traditions, many which wedo not detect. We visit the Side for a coke,
hike to Open House, skip at the HelloDance, have a spring term tug-o'-war,
celebrate Junior Weekend, dunk non-con-formists at the weekend's picnic, tear
down goal posts and wear saddles. Weplay bridge for pastime, pump bicycles for
pleasure, sing songs for sentiment andmyriad other activities which are our tra-
ditions today.
When the Alumni return for Home-coming, November 8-10, we will return to
the outmoded traditions as a means toentertain them. They are better acquainted
with the old customs of their school days.Such a stunt is for that weekend. When
the celebration is over, remember we stillhave our up-to-date traditions?paradoxi-
cal as that phrase may sound?and by nostretch of the imagination are we lacking
in spirit because we fail to keep up habitsas old as croquet. Rest assured Oregon's
student body is not so supine as to denythat healthy change is a cosmic law.

SOUTH ALUMS BANQUET
1005 West 6thLos Angeles, Calif.
October 22, 1940Dear "Nels":
In the Hawaiian decorated "BlossomRoom" of the beautiful Hollywood-Roose-
velt hotel in downtown Hollywood, about75 Oregon alums gathered last Friday (Oc-
tober 18) to banquet,do their bit to rally
Oregon on, and havea rousing good time.
I thought perhapsyou and some of the
others up in Eugenemight be interested in
doings of that particu-lar evening.
Of course seeing"Tex" Oliver was the
high spot of the night!He always says just
the right thing in hisown snappy style.
Paul Peek, Beta('27), now secretary
of the state of California, was master ofceremonies introducing various alums and
others during the evening, here and thereadvocating FDR to the irritation of a
group of Willkie boys in the back of theroom.
"Mighty Oregon" and "As I Sit andDream at Evening" were loyally warbled.
Billy O'Brien, MGM musician, entertain-ed with piano selections throughout our
delicious turkey dinner. Tex requested"Boogie Woogie" be dedicated to Howard
Jones.
Only a few of the class of 1940 were
there but did we ever have a grand time
getting together!

'Trek the Oregon Trail"By JOE GURLEY,'41
Enemy of ennui, General Chairman Joe Gurley of
Oregon City energetically plans his train of Home-
coming thoughts to reach a terminal November 8-10,
the graduates' weekend. Aided and abetted by an
active group of students, wiry Joe has picked these as
program heads: Bill Fendall, publicity, Stan Staiger,
dance, Wally Rossman, finance, Al Gray, signs,
George Mackin, noise parade, Cynthia Caufield, per-
sonnel, Pat Keller, rally, Bud Wimberly, dance
broadcast, Maxine Hansen, executive secretary, Nelda
Christenson, hospitality. "Trek the Oregon Trail"
will have more than alliterative appeal next weekend
in this campus city promises this smooth-functioning
team of organizers.?Ed.
Ever since the first graduating classleft the University in 1880 the tang of a
fall morning, the color of a college rally,and the thump of a football have com-
bined to emphasize recollections of "deardays at Oregon." Each year Homecoming
has been an outstanding campus eventdesigned especially for the recapturing of
all the college eras, each with a differenttwist, but all of the same metal.
Even in the face of Thanksgiving datedifferences, Homecoming at Oregon goes
on progressively better, and when thethree-day program unfolds November 8,
9, and 10, it is the confident expression ofthe Homecoming directorate that "old
guard" Webfeet will be spending a toptime in this millrace city.
Friday the show opens. Starting short-ly after dinner, the annual noise and torch
parade will tie up Eugene traffic, travel aparade route that will lead grads and
students to the east entrance of Haywardfield for the special Homecoming rally.
Although the traditional bonfire has been"tabled" for lack of adequate fire pro-
tection, the rally will be a continued fea-ture. Pat Keller, chairman, has submitted
elaborate plans for the pep meet whichwill provide the overture to the Frosh-
Rook game to be played in Haywardbowl starting at 8 o'clock.
FROSH-ROOK GAME
There, John Warren (recently christen-ed "Peg-leg") will wheel out the fresh-
man squad that dammed up the BabyBeavers in Multnomah stadium last month
for the second of the three game series.
Aimed to sharpen the rivalry that hasalways existed between the sophomore
and freshman classes is the guarding ofthe old "O" high on Skinner's butte.
Vernon Kelley, frosh from The Dalles, isthe leader of the vigilantes?the mighty
sophomores have not yet disclosed theirraider chief's name, at least for publica-
tion. This event is officially slated forFriday night.
Simultaneously, the judging of Home-
coming signs will be carried on underthe guidance of Al Gray. Each year this
phase of the graduates' celebration be-comes more popular and is certainly one
of the most colorful of the many events.Every living organization will vie for a
cash prize?the signs take their themefrom the Homecoming slogan or the big
game of the weekend which this time isthe U.CL.A.-Oregon embroglio.
And speaking of prizes, trophies willbe presented the respective houses regis-
tering the largest number of returningAlumni, the winners of the noise parade,
and, as an innovation, the organizationregistering the oldest person to return to
the campus for this occasion.Saturday's slate is full, starting early
with a meeting of the yet new board ofdirectors for the Alumni Association; at
10:30 the University of Oregon AlumniAssociation will meet in the Guild theater
of Johnson hall for an annual clearingof the business docket.
"O" MEN TO LUNCH
Hailed as another venture for the affairis the luncheon of all Order of the "O"
Alumni at the Anchorage. Jim Rathbun,president of the student group, has made
all arrangements. Sentimentalities enteredthe planning, according to Rathbun, who
pointed out the interesting fact concern-ing Oregon's twentieth anniversary of
holding training tables at the Anchorage.
All "O" men will move from theirluncheon spot at 1:45 to Hayward field
where the traditional lettermen proces-

sion will precede the kickoff of the Home-
coming game?Oregon versus U.CL.A.
Game time is two o'clock and advance
requests in the University ticket office
indicate a packed stadium. U.C.L.A. will
be the only California team to meet Ore-
gon on a local field this season and the
contest stands to mark a highlight in the
Homecoming activities.
Not planned by the student committee,but a favorite portion of the weekend, is
the Alumni reception in the Eugenearmory immediately following the game.
Closing Saturday's full calendar willbe the annual Homecoming dance in Mc-
Arthur court?an event free to all fullmembers of the Alumni Association. As
in other years, a band of some reputewill provide the entertainment. Stan Staig-
er is dance chairman.
Special Homecoming services will beconducted in all Eugene churches Sunday
morning. All houses will honor the re-turning grads at Sunday dinners, and as
a new attraction a mid-afternoon musicconcert in the music school auditorium
will close the weekend.
Several "open house" displays from theUniversity's various schools will be open
Saturday morning and ?unday afternoonin Johnson hall and the Library. More
of an emphasis will be placed on theacademic side of Oregon as a part of
the yearly Alumni mix. The Homecom-ing directorate has issued a particular ap-
peal that the returning Ducks "nosearound" the grounds and visit both the
old and several new buildings.
Adding to the heavy slate, most housesare preparing special entertainment for
their Alumni guests during this weekend.
The slogan adopted for the finest andmost memorable Homecoming is "Trek
the Oregon Trail"?and it's meant to betaken literally! No carpet has ever been
weaved that would be large enough toplace WELCOME comparative to the
open-armed spirit of the 1940 Universityof Oregon student body.

Ducks in the Sportlight By
NOVEMBER 1940
BOBFLAVELLE/41
Sportswriter Flavelle is critical of Oliver's team in
this succinct story of Homecoming's activities in
track and football. Not to be forgotten, though, are
Oregon's tenacious tackles and driving lines in recent
games. Seattle's Stenstrom still smacks his 202-pound
frame through the line in heavy duty style. Nelson,
the Swede from Salem, runs and blocks in the best of
backfield style, not forgetting the good performances
of Buck Berry and the consistencies of Chet Haliski.
Genial Jacobsen, Big Jim Stuart, Sailor Ashcom,
Trader Home, Wild Bill Regner, Tuffy Segale are
men to be remembered when sixty minutes of ball
playing end. The UCLA-Oregon Homecoming clash
will be one worth watching.?Ed.
Many an Oregon graduate will "Trekthe Oregon Trail" to Eugene when Home-
coming weekend of November 8, 9, and 10rolls around. In addition to the oppor-
tunity of renewing old acquaintances andvisiting once again the familiar scenes of
their college days, they will have theprivilege of witnessing a weekend cram-
med full of sporting events.
The big game between the Ducks andUCLA on Saturday afternoon at Hay-
ward field will of course hold the spotlightof the three-day celebration. From all
indications this contest between theBruins of Westwood and Tex Oliver's
not-too-mighty Webfoot aggregation willprove to be a knock-down-drag-out affair,
with both teams scoring occasionally andspectacularly The Uclans boast one of
the most dangerous runners in the busi-ness in dusky Jackie Robinson, Coach
Babe Horrell's athletic jack-of-all-trades.Thus far this season Jackie has been
handicapped by an injured leg but shouldbe in good shape to give the Ducks a
hectic afternoon when the two teams meeton November 9.
TIE WITH WSC
Oregon's "scoreless wonders," who per-form so admirably between the 20-yard
markers and fold up so completely whenthey approach the goal line, have to date
dropped each of their first three conferencegames. In each case, the Ducks had
several chances to score but lacked theextra punch when they ran into a tightened
line. (The fourth game tie with Washing-State last weekend erased the "scoreless
wonder" title.)After starting off with the three tough-
est teams in the league this year, comingon successive Saturdays, Oregon had mild
excuse for a breathing spell when theytook on the ambitious Washington State
Cougars on October 26 and the Grizzliesfrom Montana a week later. These con-
tests will tell whether the Webfoots havereally had tough luck during the first few
weeks of their schedule or whether theywere fortunate in not having bigger scores
run up against them.Something new in half-time entertain-
ment is in store for the Homecoming fans.Plans are in progress to have three of
Oregon's greatest track figures performon Hayward turf during the lull in grid
hostilities. Topping the list of nationallyknown record holders is Les Steers, un-
official holder of the American high jumprecord of 6 feet, 9f? inches. He has been
known to go over 6 feet, 11 inches inpractice workouts.
SHOW TRACK MEN
Familiar to Oregon followers of track,George Varoff, polevaulter, and Boyd
Brown, javelin tosser, will take to thefield once again to demonstrate the form
that carried them to national recognition.Varoff at one time held the world out-
door record of 14 feet, 6% inches. Ontwo occasions he travelled through Europe
with a squad of American athletes andin the last year he -was named captain
of the squad.Boyd Brown completed his three years
of eligibility last: spring and his bestheave in competition measured 232 feet,
7 inches which was good enough for anew record in the
: Big Ten-Pacific coastmeet in the Midwest last summer. Boyd's
record is doubly ? impressive when oneconsiders that his throwing is handicap-
ped by the loss of the thumb of hispitching arm, making it necessary for him
to grasp the spear between his first andsecond fingers.
The second struggle between the Frosh
of Oregon and Oregon State's rook teamis scheduled for Friday of Homecoming
week and it threatens to surpass thevarsity game in thrills and interest. John
Warren's Ducklings took the first clashwhen they defeated the Babes by a close
7 to 6 score in a contest on Multnomahfield at Portland.
Warren's formidable squad of new-comers has power, speed and deception
and has given the varsity representativesstiff opposition in recent practice games.
Jim Newquist is a one-man-gang whenhe dons his gridiron uniform and takes
over the ball-carrying position for theYearlings. In the Beaver game he handled
the pigskin IS times from scrimmage andaveraged better than 5 yards per try. His
passing and kicking was equally brilliantand the fans accorded him one of the
warmest rounds of applause ever givena player at Multnomah stadium when he
left the field with a hand injury late inthe game.
Inky Boe is number one replacementfor the "Camas Cyclone" and the diminu-
tive halfback, who teamed with Brad Eck-lund while at Milwaukie high last year.
Clarence Codding, ex-'35, will toastmaster
Order of the "O" noon luncheon on thecampus, Saturday of Homecoming week-
end. The Portland alumnus is president of
the Duck Club in that city.
Duck Club Peppy
Football radio parties, welcome recep-tions for campus emissaries promoting
Homecoming, and noon luncheons take upthe time of Portland's Duck Club mem-
bers, according to their weekly newssheet.
President Clarence Codding reportssuch celebrities as Art Kirkham, dean of
northwestern announcers, and EdwinAtherton, father of the purity code, as re-
cent speakers. Also, movie pictures ofOregon football games catch the eye of
Duck Club attendants as they meet Mon-day noons in the Roosevelt hotel.

Traditions Are Timely B7BILL FENDALL, '41
Verve and vigor run together in Publicity Man Bill Fendall's framework. Seek-
ing a major in journalism, Fendall transferred from Oregon State this year to
rub shoulders with his adopted brothers of the fourth estate. For Homecoming
weekend, undergraduates will return out-moded traditions to their temporary
place in the campus sun. Alumni will observe the University seal near Villard
hall, hesitate to smoke near Hello Walk, glance at freshmen with tops attired
in green hats and ribbons, avoid the grass by using the by-paths. Spirit of an
older Oregon will be reproduced November 8-10.?Ed.
Come conscrip-tion, high water
or number seven,University of Ore-
gon undergradswill take the initi-
ative Friday, No-vember 8, and for
three days relivewith University
Alumni those tra-ditions that put
the "when" in lastyear's Homecom-
ing slogan. "Re-member When,"
which is already a tradition in Homecom-ing committee circles.
When you climb off the train witheveryone headed in the same direction,
take a good look around, for after thecoedette welcoming committee grabs you,
you won't face the same direction twiceuntil you board the train again Sunday
night.
NOISE PARADE OPENER
Like the Emerald coming off the Uni-versity press you will get it on both sides.
Very traditionally, the noise-torch-pajamaparade starts the weekend-list of grad-
undergrad activities. With all the timingand formation of an army air squadron
in flight the '40 Homecoming schedulewill unfold from the mother event?the
UCLA-UO football game with its turf-wrecking crews down to the smallest in-
cident of a Lemon "O" man swinging thepine on a grass-walking frosh who has
forgotten the resurrection of that '02 (orought not to) tradition.
The Homecoming committee has sched-uled a program so injected with traditions
that the facts of the case interfere withthe truth in trying to boil down this
word-parade about the 1940 Homecoming.The program is so arranged that for
24 hours out of the 24-hour day, you willeach be a man-of-the-hour . . . each
hour.
BIGGEST TRADITION
Whether you "Trek the Oregon Trail"at about 60 or on foot, after arriving on
the campus you will immediately becomea part of the biggest tradition of the
University . HOMECOMING
This year the Homecoming schedule isplanned to make you forget that hair is
approaching the timberline on so manyclassmates, and at the same time remind
you of the time you went into the goal-post frays against OSC students or any
other student body optomistic enough toshake an Oregon goal post, and come out
panting and pantsless.
Plans for the 1940 tradition-infested pro-gram call for an indoor street riot in case
of rain and promises all the excitement ofa four-alarm fire if the weather is clear.
Every tradition to be found in the
undusted files of the library will be re-vived by the combined classes of '40, '41,
'42 and '43 during those three days youencircle on your November calendar. Ex-
amples before you will bring up memoriesof how walking on t.he Oregon seal in
front of Villard was a millracing offense. . . you, too, said "hello" on this path .
and the walkouts the boys over at thehouse were talking about?why you didn't
come back for three days . how youbent the knee to each orchestra that came
to the campus . . yes, how you wereonce a college student with all its habit-
forming qualities.
Fiery fingers stretching heavenward indicate Oregon's freshman bonfire of lastHomecoming weekend. This print packs historical wallop with no pyrotechnic
display scheduled for 1940's celebration. Read Alumni Secretary Fansett'sexplanation, this issue.

Why No Frosh Bonfire?
A timely question in the minds of alltraditionally minded Alumni. We all dis-
like seeing one of our most colorfulHomecoming events discarded in favor of
so called stream-lined activities. To doaway with a tradition of such long stand-
ing requires a word of explanation.The city of Eugene and particularly
the University district has grown by leapsduring the past few years. A careful sur-
vey discloses there is no bonfire locationin any easily accessible location near the
campus.
Freshman classes have become largereach year and the problem of obtaining
100% participation has become increas-ingly difficult.
Improvements in cijy fire preventionlaws have required merchants and others
to dispose of inflamable material regularlyso that the procuring of suitable bonfire
material has become almost impossible.
Oregon spirit is not a thing of the nast.The students of today evidence just as
much school spirit as those classes a scoreof years ago. Oregon students are pro-
gressive and are able to adapt themselvesto changing times and conditions. In
place of the outmoded bonfire the stu-dents have built a homecoming program
that will not be lacking in a single detailin making the weekend of November 8-
9-10 one to be remembered.

Listen! Canyou hear the
surging pulseof America in
full vigor,busy with her
greatest task?Defense?
* * *
I want to tell you something
about Defense that maybe you
don't know. For years the Pe-
troleum Industry has carried on
independent research on its own
initiative, unsubsid'zed by the
Government. Union Oil Company
has done its share ? has re-
search engineers who spend
practically all of their time in
this work.
* * *Thanks to such
researchAmerica can
now produceenough 100-
octane avia-tion gasoline
for more
planes than we'll ever have. Andthanks to that research, the same
bomber can fly 30% faster andfarther in the U. S. than in
Europe. It can carry 20 to 30%more bombs and climb above
anti-aircraft fire 25% faster.
* * *
Take rubber, too. We use more
than half of all the rubber in
the world and 90% of it comes
9000 miles across the world to
us, and the dictators want it!
Well, Petroleum Industry re-
search has made synthetic rub-
ber a commercial reality. Before
our supply of natural rubber is
exhausted we can produce all
we need ... from Petroleum}
If I had room I could list at
least fifty more essential prod-
ucts they have developed. But
that'll give you an idea.
* * *
It gives me athrill to know
that the sameresearch engi-
neers who de-veloped 76
and Triton arean important
part of the Petroleum Industry?an industry that has done so
much to make America strong.
