TEN CENTS PER MEAL
Announcement was made yesterday that plans have been completed by which students who could not otherwise remain in school may obtain meals, next semester, at the rate of ten cents. Through it the student may obtain meals for the entire month for much less than most students now spend on food each week. This plan, coupled with the fact that lodgings may be had at a lower figure than at any time in recent years, brings a college education within the grasp of nearly all.
The meals to be served under the student-aid plan are both sufficient and well balanced. Great credit should go to those who have co-operated to make them possible.
It can no longer be said that the University is primarily a rich man's school. Even the most skeptical must admit that there is room here for all determined students.
Other schools will watch the experiment, and when the plan is proved successful, they, too, will adopt it.
The library is as busy these days as the floor of the stock exchange was during the memorable days of 29 when the crash came. Those students who have been traveling on a slight margin all year are rushing to cover their investment so that when the ticker of grade quotations is ready next week it will still read John Doe $70^4$ instead of John Doe, opened 70; closed $49^2$.
A MENACE TO PEACE
China is lining up extensive preparations for war on the Jebol front. Too long she has waited for Japan to cease her attacks. Now China is preparing to do something about protecting herself.
The Sino-Japanese situation is menace to the world. It lies a festering danger spot, as potentially infectious as were the Balkan states in 1914. The rest of the world is powerless to heal the trouble. It has effectually exposed the weakness of the League of Nations and there is a possibility that many nations may be drawn into the struggle before it is ended.
Especially in these times of depression and unrest is there a temptation to gain temporary prosperity through another war. Men are tired of struggling against a black miserable poverty, tired of unemployment, tired of everything that spells hard times.
The world is rapidly working itself into a mood in which another great war will not be an impossibility. The Chinese preparations may be the small nucleus around which trouble in international relations will grow and grow. In order to prevent or postpone this shadow of war, something must be done about China and Japan—something that will not merely heat the surface but will also cauterize the depths.
A WORD TO—
Students in the College have been provided with a three-day period (Jan. 24-26) during which they may take their program troubles to their advisers for help.

University of Oregon Traditions Council Ends Compulsory Wearing of Frosh Caps
Eugene, Ore., Jan. 24—(Special) The traditional fresh cap cums were ablished on the Oregon University campus yesterday after a short, but lively meeting of the traditions council, according to an announcement made last night by Bill Bowerman, vice-president in charge of charge.
The vote of the council upon the question, which was oral, was 11 to 7. The vote of the commission. However according to Bewerwain, the 11 total represented a conid
matter of advising students about both their enrollment for the second semester and their program in general. The enrollment floor is no place for getting advice; it is for the mechanics of enrollment.
This period of advisement is a convenience and assistance to the students. Much trouble and bother will be spared the student who takes advantage of the opportunity thus offered. And, of course, it will be the student who doesn't take it who will complain later on about his schedule, saying that he couldn't get any good advice while he was enrolling.
IS MAN SUPERIOR?
And so man is superior? A great many men argue that women will never make good in the business world because a woman depends too much on intuition, whereas men are prone to reason things out. But when you stop to analyze it, what is the difference? Reasoning produces a series of conclusions based on the experience of the human race. Isn't intuition similarly based on human experience? It is a more unconscious process, but probably just the same in reality. The woman thinks the thing through without knowing it and men have to go to a lot of effort to get the same results, largely because they think they must. Of such oddities is the alleged masculine superiority made.
If men in every form of industry besides farming come to realize the same thing, this depression, or period of adjustment, or whatever one may care to call it, cannot be entirely disastrous. Other lines of work can be ways of living if man wishes to make them that.
Oscar S. Stauffer, in the Arkansas City Traveler, says men are beginning to realize that farming is not a business, but rather a way of life.
A LIVING LIFE
The world followed a strictly business course for several years and did not get very far before it found a formidable hazard. If we played up the living side of life for a while and perhaps we should discover that "all we need is a little faith, a little hope, and a lot of charity."
Bowerman was one of the leaders in influencing the meeting against the antiquated tradition, and, along with Bill Morgan, captain of the Oregon football eleven, urged the council to abolish it.
erable member of Skull and Dagger members, whose votes could not be counted, since they are underclassmen or academics of the traditions group prover.
Morgan said he thought the abstolishing of fresh lids was a forward step for the entire student body. Other prominent campus leaders who uphold Bowerman and Morgan at the most critical junctures in the life of the Liberal; Emma Buzzio, football veteran; and Jean Grady, senior sports manager.
The abandoning of freshman caps ends a controversy which has occupied a foremost place upon the Oregon campuses. The debate over whether she alternatively ranged and subsided and has divided the campus on the subject. The Emerald, student publication, has on numerous occasions agitated on the matter and re-emphasized an editorial urging those in charge of traditions to abandon the custom.
Bowerman's announcement will also end such events as padding bees which have usually taken place upon the library steps. Recently the hooking order for the men's gymnasium, but even they the men provoked unfavorable comment.
William J. (Bill) Reinhart, head coach of basketball and baseball, and one of Oregon's greatest athletes of the decade, has better education than better Oregon student because he wears a green cap on his head. Many of the nation's leading schools have long ago abolished enforcement of freshman athletic programs and are glad to see Oregon do the same."
Prominent faculty members showed much enthusiasm and were well pleased over the move when informed by the Emerald.
Dr. W. J. Kerr, chancellor of higher education said, "It is in common with the present educational trend."

CHAPTER 1
May day is of outstanding importance in the scholastic year of a southern college. It marks delibu-
tely four months of quiet and unobtrusively, and students who—on April thirtieth—have
ended are suddenly awakened to realization that in a very short time there will be an exodus and the great build-
ing will begin.
And this May day was perfect. A brilliant sun smiled down from an uncontrolled canopy, then flurried alternately from the hillside; groups of students lolled under the trees clutching lily-or not talking at all. It took a while for him to calmming; for it I wandered thoughtfully.
Autolene Peyton picked a spray of blue, plucked the flower holdily, in different to any eyes which might be held her. Then she gazed across a carpet of blue flowers upon which she were situated the academic buildings of the university.
Twelve hundred students of both sexes succumbed to the spell. Worries were dissipated. Spring had come late to this jewel-like campus of Marlind University in Alabama; but had antoned, in the glory of its coming, for all its tardiness.
Over on the hill a scant quarter mile beyond the Bowl stood the women's dormitory, and immediately before it was a lilac bush in radiant blossom. A girl stepped from the hallway into the sunlight and passed by the Bowl, where her arm sured delibration of a senior, she proceeded to violate a college rule.
Tony Peyton was a pretty girl. She was more than a pretty girl. There was strength of character in her vivid smile. She was the most great, bustion black eyes. She gave an impression of gorgeous vitality. She touched the spik of lice to her mouth and smiled. She smiled into her face, and the campus smiled back at her.
She stared off across the tops of the pine trees toward the knoll on which the academic buildings roared their music. "I was a brick and white stone; nine of them standing like indomitable sentiments about the natural stadium which had been built in the first half century, but wasn't a big college—its total enrollment was less than twelve hundred—it was it proud. Its embaument was less than three years; its archives yielded records of undergraduates who had gone off in the first bitter days of "11" to join the Corps of Cadets. The Army Main was its World war roll of honor. There were records too, of graduates who had risen to positions of importance in the fields of science and engineering.
She moved through the thy valley, head thrown back, spirg of lilia held in her right hand, the moving slightly forward, and she magic of the day was upon her and
And perhaps the students attached Just a wee hit too much importance to the eminence recently achieved by the Martinford football and track teams. The university's basketball team . . . but this morning Towson Peyton could understand that, because as she looked down into the almost darkened court, she saw a picture which had impressed itself indefinitely upon her eighteen months before when Marland's greatest gridron team, under the leadership of legendary coach John Macklin, its way to a legitimate climb to the mystic national championship. That had been a day: twenty thousand fans gone wild in the flow; of color and a water of sound.
Tony glued at her wrist watch and slighed. With a conscious effort he squeezed his hand up to quick, exorable air she starched down the bill into the valley which must be crossed before one could mount the other hill—the bill upon which the col-
she approached the Hill with a feeling of reluctance that the spell must be broken.
And then — quite suddenly — she stopped. Just before her was a huge oak tree. Tony knew that particular tree; it stood still before a forest nook affectionately known by all students at Marlard as the River; a tiny, secluded spot sheltered by giant trees and embowered in hoopsychia.
Vows came to her from that knook, volumes of a man and a girl. Jony's friend had been in a war stint, startled, worried expression temped into her eyes. She was afraid—not
A man in yonder-with a girl, Nothing in that to dispel the glory of the earth. She was a woman of wonders more wonderful and the Power been unaccompanied. But she fancied that she knew the voices... the man's voice; the woman's headfall-illusiated answer. Then there was silence.
Tony was of no mind to interrupt a campus romance. Unless . . . She remained motionless for several minutes; her face a study in worried concentration. Why didn't they speak when she wished to be sure. She thought.
And then her two dani vanished. From behind the shelter of trees and vines came a man's voice; rich and soft and freighted with caresses.
"Little sweetheart," he said, "you're the most bewitching thing I've ever seen."
Tony's lips pressed to a firm, angry face. It was Patt Tayer all right: "Put making love, in his sains, polished, essentially superior way—to some one."
Then the chilish voice of Thayer's companion; a voice which trembled with the engerness of a first gritlish passion—
"Oh, 'lut,' said the girl, "you— you're so wonderful!"
Tony's face grew stern. She hastened no longer. She circled the great oak tree and shoved aside the curtin of honeysuckle vines.
The man met her eyes. But he continued to hold the girl tightly in his arms. He smiled sarboreally at the woman, the fluffy golden hair of his companion.
"And who," he inquired with mocking politeness—"Who invited you Tony?"
There was fierce hostility in the glance which passed between Tony Peyton and the tail, too well-groomed
made no secret of the fact that she was mad clear through.
Tony paid no attention to Ivy. She spoke to the man.
"Well," asked Ivy Welch sharply,
"are we intruding?"
"Aren't you taking foolish chances, Pat?" she asked gravely.
He smiled and shrugged.
He smiled and shrugged.

Tony laughed. It was a short, bitter laugh and it stung.

Ivy stamped her font impatiently.
"Don't be silly, Tony. I'm not # child."
"I shall. And I will take ly with me."
The younger girl stared incredulously.
"And Who," He Inquired With Mocking Politeness—"Who Invited You, Tony?"
"You'll understand some time, Ivy," said Tony gently. "If you'll just be love me now—"
"Noo. But you're only seventeen and—"
"Ask her." suggested Pat.
"Yes, they are. This time."
"What's the big idea?" she demanded.
"—And I'm getting older every day,
I'll listen here; I'm trying not to
get some. But my friends are nooby's business."
"I don't nik a very big idea," said Michael. "I just say that understations what I'm driving at. I'm asking you to take me to the store. It would be best for you to have a car."
"Why? What's so terrible wrong with him? Or maybe you think I've never been kissed before. Is that it?" "No. If it was worse, also."
"But it isn't, Tony. It's Pat. And I'm asking you why she's so dangerous. I'm trying to be nice, and it isn't very easy. The only thing I'll tell you is that I will tell me what you are hiding at, then I stick with Pat as long as he wants."
Tony's eyes flickered to Thayer's sardonic face.
"Ask Tony," he repeated. "She'll tell you what she wishes you to."
"Why don't you do the decent thing
that I want?" she said.
"Why should he? I immediately
then she turned toward the man,
'What is what there between
you two?'
"Stay Tony," he repested. "She'll tell you what she wishes you to know." She opened her lips to speak, and closed them again, for the expression she saw on the face of the slender senior flashed a message that whatever might exist between Tony and Jeremy—it certainly was not able to love.
Tony was staring straight at Pat and there was no mistaking the loathing in her glance.
