What Commencement Offer s
This Yea r
C OMMENMEMENT at the University begins Thursda yevening, dune 15 when the senior orators contest i nVillard hall for the Failing and Beekman prizes . Thi s
event always proves to be one of the most attractive featuro i
of the commencement program . The interest in debate an d
oratory at the University has been keen during the past year ,
indicating that there will be real competition for the prize s
offered.
The Flower and Fern procession, in which the senio r
women, preceded by the alumnae of the University, all lade n
with flowers and ferns, tread in slow procession along thos e
familiar paths on the campus over which during their colleg e
days they hurried to and from classes, comes at the twiligh t
hour on Friday evening . After the procession the combine d
glee clubs will give, on McClure steps, the last of their outdoo r
concerts, which have proved so popular with the student s
this spring .
Saturday, Alumni day, starts at 9 o'clock in the morning ,
when the alumni council holds its annual meeting in the presi-
dent's office . At 9 :30 o'clock the alumnae association meet s
in Guild hall where the year's reports, which are encouragin g
due to the successful financing of the Mary Spitler scholarshi p
fund and the launching of a $400 loan fund made possibl e
through the gift of $100 by Mr . and Mrs . F . E . Chambers
and a $300 donation by the Home Science club of Eugene .
Election of officers for the coming year will also take place.
Annual Meeting Saturday
The alumni will elect the officers for the coming yea r
at the annual meeting to be held at 10 o'clock Saturday morn-
ing. This meeting will be the most important of the day, a s
at that time the discussion of the plans for the coming yea r
will be held . This includes the selection of a new alumn i
secretary. Also the plans for the campaign for gifts to th e
University will be put before the alumni .
The noon luncheon on that day for the seniors, invite d
guests and alumni, is always looked forward to by the alumn i
as one of the main causes of their return to the campus fo r
commencement, for on that occasion the seniors learn of a
tradition which they very likely never knew existed . It is al l
doped out before band that at the luncheon all the pent-u p
Oregon Spirit, which the alumni have felt oftentimes bu t
had no appropriate place to vent their enthusiasm, burst s
forth in songs and class yells, unknown to the undergraduates .
Specially honored guests on this occasion will be th e
classes holding reunions this year . 'Way, 'way back in 188 2
will be there ; 1897, twenty-five years out, will marvel o n
what a quarter century has done for the University ; whil e
1912 and 1917 will be counting noses to see who has the larg-
est representation there . From 3 :00 to 5 :00 that afternoo n
President and Mrs . P . L . Campbell will receive the cow -
mencement visitors and the student body as guests at a re-
ception to be held in Alumni hall in the Woman's building .
From the special reunion dinners to be held Saturda y
evening at 6 :00, the alumni, graduates and friends of th e
University will have the opportunity of watching the com-
mencement play, "Dombey and Son" put on by the depart-
ment of the drama . The play will be given in the Eugen e
theater at 8 :30.
Dr. Bowman to Speak
The baccalaureate service will be held in the First Metho-
dist church of Eugene, Sunday morning at 11 o'clock . Rev .
H. L . Bowman, pastor of the First Presbyterian church o f
Portland, will deliver the sermon, the subject being "Mor e
Than Conquerors." A special concert under the direction o f
the school of music will be given in the Woman's buildin g
at 4 o'clock Sunday afternoon .
President A . H . Upham, of the University of Idaho, wil l
deliver the commencement address in the Woman's buildin g
Monday morning at 11 o'clock .
At least 214 seniors, and perhaps twenty more, are to re-
ceive diplomas from the University on Monday . The tota l
number of graduates of a quarter of a century ago is no w
equaled by those of one of the technical schools-the schoo l
of business administration-and almost equaled by some o f
the others .
The total number of graduates last year was 226 . Whe n
the twenty still to fulfill their requirements, or the greate r
part of the twenty, comply, as expected, this year 's class wil l
equal or exceed the figures of last year .
As usual, the greater part of this year's graduates ar e
taking the degree of bachelor of arts, with 129 listed unde r
that heading . Twenty-three are taking the degree of bachelo r
of science, 10, bachelor of arts in journalism ; five, bachelo r
of science in journalism ; five, bachelor of science in educa-
tion; five, bachelor of science in architecture ; six, bachelor o f
laws; one, bachelor of music . Eight master's degrees ar e
being granted-six in arts and two in science .
Among the graduating class this year are leaders in man y
lines of activity . Martin Howard, captain of the footbal l
team; "Spike" Leslie, star tackle for three years ; Neil Mor-
fitt, end ; Thomas A . ( "Scotty") Strachan, guard and tackle ,
and Barclay Loughlin, substitute center, are the quota of th e
football team. The track team is contributing Glen Walkley ,
record-breaking miler, and Strachan, the football player, wh o
put the shot farther than any other man in the Northwes t
this year .
So it is through the whole list of activities . The class o f
1922 is well repreesnted in many lines, scholastic and athletic .
The class is evenly divided between men and women, wit h
107 of each who have already completed requirements .

OLD OREGO N
Class of 1897 Holds Reunion In Jun e
By LYLE VEAZIE BRYSON,  2
W
HILL one class is leaving the University of Orego n
this spring, several are returning . Commencement
week is to see many celebrations. Amid the farewell s
of the 1922 seniors there will ring the chants of former gradu-
ates, among them the graduates of 7 who left the campu s
exactly twenty-five years ago.
Purple and gold, the class colors of 7, will hold equa l
sway with the class colors of 2. And Fred Fisk, according .
to all reports, will lead the old familiar yell of a quarter cen-
tury standing, "Rah, rah, rah, wee not slow, class of 7, U .
O., U. O." Class mottoes were in vogue in those former days,
mottoes in Greek letters which stood for some such subtl e
warning as, "No palm without the dust." This was the mott o
of 7 . "We are returning after all these years," said Mrs .
Edith Veazie Bryson, 7, vice-president of the alumni associ-
ation, "to compare our palms with our dust."
Oratorical contests and philosophy classes ran in compe-
tition with boating parties in those earlier days of education.
Row boats with flat bottoms and man-sized oars furnished the
only form of transportation on the race and seemed to hav e
afforded quite as much pleasure as do our canoes . Whil e
first-year students in the University, the class of 7 as guests
of Edith Veazie rowed up the quiet mill race on their firs t
class boating party . Much freshman muscle was brough t
into play, according to the opinion of several of the men who
manipulated the oars
The University of Oregon Monthly for the year 7 con-
tains much interesting material concerning the senior clas s
for that year . "The class is at present," says the paper ,
"solemnly considering such weighty matters as souvenirs, a
class memorial, six weeksvacation, and already that `pleasant
lookis being assiduously cultivated for the photographer s
inspection"
When Fred Fisk, 7, won a state oratorical contest hi s
loyal classmates celebrated the victory with him at an elabo-
rately appointed banquet. The paper for the month mad e
the following comment: " `Wee not slow,has an additiona l
meaning to it now; the purple of .our flag has a new tinge of
richness and the gold glows more warmly than before . I n
short, we are proud of Fred."
According to the Oregon Monthly records, there wer e
many members of 7 of whom the class as a whole wa s
proud. Much mention is made of oratory and oratorical con-
tests. Edith Veazie was chosen class orator and at the tre e
ceremony delivered an oratoin on "Oregon Literature ." Th e
class, with the permission of the executive committee of th e
board of regents, dedicated the large oak tree that stand s
on the campus just to the right and in front of Villard hall .
Members of the 97 class are : Isabel Brown Dearbor n
{Mrs.), Earl Church, Dorothy Cooper, Fred Fisk, Stuart B .
Hanna, Ada Hendricks Smith (Mrs.), John C . Higgins, Lotta
Johnson Smith (Mrs .), Homer I . Keeney, Kate S . Kell y
Brown (Mrs.), Barbara Lauer Kahn (Mrs .), Carrie Matloc k
Rondebush (Mrs.), Annie Laura Miller, Ida Noffsinger ,
Katherine Patterson Bean (Mrs .), Ida Belle Roe Woodso n
(Mrs.), Stella Robinson Littler (Mrs .), Fred M . Templeton,
Lee M . Travis, Margaret Underwood Love (Mrs .), Owen M .
Van Dnyn, Edith Veazie Bryson (Mrs.), Gertrude D. Widmer,
Clinton E. Woodson.

Federal Survey Praises Orego n
T IiE unusual physical, intellectual, and spiritual progressachieved on the University of Oregon campus since wardays has just been given recognition by the Unite d
States Bureau of Education, whose "Specialist hi Highe r
Education," Dr. George F . Zook, recently completed an in-
vestigation of higher education in Oregon.
As the University of Oregon was already "standard, "
under the definition of the United States Bureau, it remaine
merely for Dr . Zook to investigate its educational policies ,
to ascertain to what extent it was exceeding the minimu m
requirements for the standard rating, and to try to sense the
spirit and quality of its personnel . Dr . Zook has writte n
in part:
"I was very well impressed with the fine quality of the
new buildings which you are placing on the campus a tEugene
. It seems to me you are following the correc t
policy in erecting buildings of this type . It is easy fo r
anyone to see that you are in need of a new library, a nauditorium, and a gymnasium
. You have been very wis ein thinking perhaps you could induce some persons o f
wealth to assist you in the construction of buildings whicare needed at the institution . 1 very much hope tha t
you will be able to secure gifts from private individual s
for this purpose,"
During his visit Dr. Zook was also apprised of the urgent
necessity of pure science construction. A biology building ,
to house the fast developing work in medicine ; a chemistry
needs in each of the four pure sciences, biology, chem -
at least the first units of each, are all urgently needed. Th e
conditions in each of the four pure sciences, biology, chem-
istry, geology and psychology, are great . Some of the Uni -
versity most scholarly work is in the pure science depart -
ments, and the progress in science elsewhere is so rapid tha
the University can scarcely keep pace with modern discover
and equipment unless it has a series of individual scienc e
buildings with plastic laboratories . Zook further wrote :
"There were a number of things at your institutio n
which I feel like commending very highly . Among thos e
was the fine spirit of cooperation among the members othe faculty with whom it was my privilege to come i
ncontact. I felt that highest ideals of scholarship per-
vaded the institution. This feeling came in part, I a m
sure, as a result of my contact with certain deans wh oseem to me to he doing particularly good work . Ther e
are many problems in the field of higher education whic
seem to be attacked in a sane, common-sense way s
especially glad to see your provision for the dropping o f
elementary rhetoric work. We should do as little of wor k
that is of secondary character as it is at all convenient .
I was much struck with the provision for giving course sin World Literature and World History, respectively . I
am not sure but that you might contemplate in this con-
nection a third course in World Citizenship, the content
to be taught in a large part from the fields of economics,
political science, and sociology. The purpose would be ,of course, to unite these in a single general course. Suc h
a course ought also to be closely related to the course in
World History."
The courses in World Literature and World History which
caught Dr. Zooks fancy were begun at the University las t
fall . Each is a two-year course, primarily for sophomore s
and juniors. Courses in World History and World Litera-
ture are exceedingly rare in American universities. Continu-
ing, Dr. Zook wrote:
"The provision which you have made for research a t
the University is fine . Our large universities ought t oexist in part for research, but on account of the pressure
of students in recent years, it has been nearly impossibl
for the state institutions to fulfill their proper function salong this line. I trust that it will soon be possible fo r
the University of Oregon to appropriate a larger sum for
the conduct of fundamental research
The first formal budget for research was authorized b y
the regents for the academic year 1921-22, and was for $5,000
This sum was not all expended in the first year, on accoun t
of the heavy teaching schedules of a number of men engaged
in research projects. The sum, however, made possible th e
continuingof about twenty projects. The faculty is rapidl y
becoming a producing one . New men are seldom engage d
unless they have the research inclination, and so far as pos-
sible they are encouragedin their effort to contribute to th e
sum of human knowledge while on the faculty of this Uni -
versity.
"I need not tell you what a pleasure it was for me tosee the development of the school of Physical Education,
especially for work among young women," wrote Dr .
Zook. "The state may well be proud of the developmen twhich it has made along this line . It is undoubtedly a
field in whieh Oregon takes a place of leadership.
"Also 1 was very happy to see the stimulation whic h
you have given to the development of the artistic side ofUniversity work, such as architecture, drama, an d
painting."
Neatly all visitors to the campus, let alone official investi-
gators, are favorably impressed with the development of th e
artistic life here. The music, dramatics, painting, sculpture,
and normal arts are of a quality that surprises especially oc-
casional visitors from the extreme east . The art side o f
higher education has recently been aided greatly by the re -
markable collection of Oriental art given by Mrs . Murray
Warner, and formally accepted by the University in the pre-
sentation ceremony May 29.
"I was very sorry indeed not to be able to visit th e
Portland division of the University. It would have bee na pleasure to go over the medical school, but in som e
respects I was more interested in the extension work yo
are doing in Portland . 1 had a feeling that that cit ypresents to you and the institution enormous possibilities.
Undoubtedly you should have a building there. Wouldit
not be possible to get some loyal citizen of the city t obuild an adequate building for you, Perhaps the cit y
itself might take an interest in this matter .
"It was, of course, a very interesting thing for me t ocompare the University at the present time with what it
was doing during the time Dr. Capen made hie report on
the survey . Capen report was made in 1915.-Ed .}I can not but feel that the University has made grea t
progress during the period since Dr. Capen made the sur-
vey. 1 trust that the same happy relations as now existbetween the University and the Agrienltural College will
continue. Both are doing a great work, each in its ow nway, and nothing should be introduced to break thei r
harmony
Dr. Zook further commended the work of the Highe r
Education Standards committee, whichin the past year ha s
tried to bring about more uniform entrance requirements .
"We have gone much too far in this country in permittin g
students with any kind of high school program of study t o
enter college, necessitating a repetition of work on the par t
of higher institutions which properly belongs to the secondary
schools. I trust it will be possible for you to continue thi s
work. It seems to me you might well go somewhat furthe r
in defining the entrance requirements to each of the profes-
sional schools," he said . Dr . Zook also recommended that
4

OLD OREGO N
the number and the proportion of large classes be reduce d
if possible . Because of financial limitations the Universit y
has had to schedule a number of good-sized sections, but i s
much more fortunate in this respect than the institution s
which have run so terrifically to numbers in ,the last decade .
Language sections in the University of Oregon, for example ,
have been reduced to about 35, whereas in some of the ver y
large institutions instructors try to give language instructio n
to as many as 80 and 90 in a section .
Subsequently Dr . Zook made a report covering his in-
spection of Oregon colleges in general . This report wa s
made to the state superintendent of public instruction, an d
as the state University was already standard, little appear s
in the report concerning it . bf the situation in general, how -
ever, he wrote :
"Turning again to the situation in the colleges an d
universities of the state, it may well be, as has alread y
been stated, a source of pride that the state has a large r
proportion of its population in colleges than any othe r
state in the Union . Indeed the tremendous growth i n
the number of students has taxed the capacity of the stat e
institutions and the better privately supported college s
and has made necessary numerous popular appeals fo r
the support of higher education both in the state an d
private institutions .
"In the ease of the endowed colleges it - was a sourc e
of keen disappointment to the inspector to find all bu t
three of these colleges in financial distress . On accoun t
of the rise in prices and the general change in the eco-
nomic condition caused by the world war, endowment s
that have hitherto appeared fairly adequate to provid e
facilities for a superior grade of college work are no w
wholly inadequate . The friends of the endowed institu-
tions cannot hope to reach any considerable portion of th e
student body of the state or to convince the public of th e
standard grade of their college work unless they bend thei r
efforts unremittingly to the raising of endowments whic h
a few years ago seemed impossible as well as wholly un-
necessary. Ten years ago an endowment of $250,00 0
seemed to assume permanency and a high grade of colleg e
work. Today $500,000 in addition to adequate building s
is only a moderate endowin .ent t
each state needs the stabilizing influence of a number o f
privately supported colleges . It is wholly unnecessary t o
point out, however, that students will not attend thes e
institutions unless they can find at them a teaching staf f
and other facilities comparable in quality to those o f
the state institutions . These conditions may not now b e
had on an endowment of $200,000 and an inferior physica l
plant. It behooves the friends and the officers of th e
privately supported colleges in Oregon, therefore, to rais e
these larger endowments or consider frankly the questio n
of curtailing activities, as for example on the basis o f
junior college work . A college cannot exist on its hopes .
It will be known by and it must be standardized by it s
accomplishments. I trust therefore that complete succes swill
crown the financial campaigns now being conducte d
by the endowed colleges . Upon these campaigns depend s
the future usefulness of these institutions to the stat e
and the nation .
"At the two state institutions it was apparent that a
remarkable expansion in student numbers had taken plac e
in recent years . The general increase in student bod y
over the country during the three years from 1917 t o
1920-21 was 30 per cent, but the increase of students a t
both the University and the Agricultural college in thi s
period was far in excess of this figure . This situatio n
accounts for the fairly high proportion of large classes a t
both institutions and for the apparent necessity, particu-
largly at the Agricultural college, of erecting building s
of less than class A grade in order to accommodate th e
largest possible number of students .
"Considering the fact that in Oregon as much if no t
more has been done through the Board of Higher Cur-
ricula toward the elimination of undesirable duplicatio n
between the two institutions, it is difficult to see how i t
would be possible to reduce the state expenditures fo r
higher education without eliminating or very seriousl y
crippling activities that are vital to the prosperity an d
welfare of the state . For it should be remembered that
when money is spent judiciously and economically in th e
support of higher education it is not a current expense ,but a wise investment
. It is not higher education tha tcosts money but the lack of it
. To be convinced of thi s
fact it is only necessary to refer to those states wher e
only a small proportion of the population is in colleg e
and where education including higher education receive s
scant financial recognition . Instead of roads, mines ,
agriculture, mills, transportation and other evidences o f
material progress, one finds them all relatively undevel-
oped, or if developed, by residents of other states wit h
sufficient technical and general education to place th e
citizens of that state in servitude to them . But over an d
above such a purely econmic consideration is the fac t
that ability to use the wealth of a state wisely, the solu-
tion of our complex citizenship problems and cultural ap-
plication, all depend upon the spread of higher educatio n
to as great a proportion of the population as is able t o
take advantage of it .
"In this period of economic depression it is natura l
and very proper that the people of a state should insis t
that their higher institutions use the funds appropriate d
to them economically . As a result of a three-day visi t
at each of the state institutions, during which time I hel d
many conferences with officials at the respective institu-
tions and examined buildings and official records, I con-
cluded that both the University and the Agricultural col-
lege were serving the people of the state satisfactoril y
not only as to the standard of work attempted but in a s
economical a way as can reasonably be expected . I ve n
tare the hope, therefore, that the state of Oregon will no t
falter in its faith that these institutions will continue t o
raise the citizens of the state to new levels of materia l
prosperity, intelligence in public affairs, and cultural ap-
preciation . These things are worth investing in, and th e
degree to which a state is witting to do so will in th e
future, as in the past, determine the extent to which th e
people of that state may enjoy these evidences of a risin g
civilization ."
Dr. Zook approval of the work of the University an d
of the Agricultural College will be particularly pleasing t o
the alumni, in view of the attack that has been made in cer-
tain counties upon the 1 .2 millage passed in 1920 ,
Oregon Graduates in Politic s
S EVERAL graduates and former students of the Universit ywere among the successful candidates in the primary elec-
tions held May 19 .

-
L . L . Ray, 2, received the Democratic nomination fo r
state senator from Lane county . Ray is chairman of th e
reunion committee for the class of 1912, and was president o f
the student body in his senior year ; for three years he wa s
a member of the University of Oregon debating team an d
was a member of Friars and Tau Kappa Alpha, honorar y
debating society . Ray was formerly district attorney for Lan e
county and is now president of the Eugene Chamber of Coin-
merce.
C. N . ("Pat") McArthur, 1, was re-nominated as Re -
publican congressman from the third district . "Pat" has
already served four terms in congress . While at the Uni-
versity he was manager of athletics and editor of the Orego n
Weekly .
K . K . Kubli, 5, is the Republican nominee for repre-
sentative from Portland . He was president of the Universit y
of Oregon Alumni association, 1918-1920 .
Herbert Gordon, a member of the board of regents of th e
University, was also a successful nominee for Republican rep-
resentative from Portland .

-
Philip Hammond, ex- 13, secured the largest number o f
votes east in Clackamas county . He ran for the Republica n
nomination for representative from Clackamas county .
Martin Hawkins, in the race for Republican nominatio n
for circuit judge, Portland, ran so close to Walter H. Evan s
that an official count was necessary .
5
Status of the Millage Attack
N OT until July 6 will it be definitely known whethe rthe University of Oregon and the Oregon Agriculturalcollege are to be compelled to make another campaign
over the millage support for higher education. As little ha s
been printed or circulated concerning the latest attack upon
the millage, a brief resume of the present episode follows, for
the general information of the alumni
March 20 and 21, a state convention of the Oregon Ta x
Reduction clubs was held in Portland n
organized by one J. C. Cooper, of McMinnvilIe, who assumed
the presidency . Cooper is a Civil war veteran, age 7 7
or 78, whose birthplace was in the Ozarks on the Missouri -
Arkansas border -
Minnville . He is a
member of a- widely known Oregon family that has been i n
the state since early days.
The state convention of the tax clubs debated nearly two
days before it finally, by 4S to 38, adopted a resolution advo-
cating the repeal of the 1.2 millage, passed by the people on
May 21, 1920, for the additional support of the Universit y
and the Agricultural college . The clubs also adopted som e
15 or 16 other recommendations
Power to carry out these recommendations was vested in
a committee of seven, the membership of which was finall y
obtained as follows: Mr . Cooper himself, Christian Schuebe
of Oregon City, Dr . A . Slaughter of Salem, Frank Porter o f
Halsey, State Senator W. H. Strayer of Baker, J . D. Brown
of Portland, and a Marion county farmer named Van Tromp.
Mr. Cooper speedily disclosed that his primary interes t
was the repeal of the millage ; in fact, after a week or tw o
he appeared to relegate practically all the other recommenda-
tions to the future, and became a militant crusader agains t
the millage alone. In this role he has continued throughout .
A majority of the committee of seven, however, oppose d
him. Messrs . Schuebel, Slaughter, Porter and Brown too k
the position that the repeal of the 1.2 millage would do Iittl
or nothing toward lifting the heavy tax burden on land, an d
that the real solution was an income tax plus a revision o f
the assessment system . Schuebel presente
a tax equalization bill, which the committee approved.
Mr. Cooper signed this bill, and the committee meetin g
adjourned apparently unanimous for the initiating of th e
Schuebel measure, which provided indeed for the repeal o f
the millage among other things but also aimed to provid e
substitute revenue, and in any event to protect the institution
up to within ten per cent of their present receipts .
Mr. Cooper, however, forthwith announced that he pur-
posed initiating a separate measure that should provide fo r
the repeal of the millage and nothing else. Ultimately a ma-
jority of the committee of seven, Schuebel, Slaughter, Porter
and Brown. abandoned Mr. Cooper, joined forces with th e
Master of the State Grange and the officials of the Orego n
State Farm Bureau, and took steps to initiate the Schuebe l
measure under the name of the Oregon Tax Equalizatio n
association
Mr. Cooper eventually wrote out a bill of his own, o f
about two hundred words. which on May 10 was submitte d
to the attorney general for ballot title . The ballot title an d
a sample petition were redelivered to Mr. Cooper on May 23,
and went to the Salem Statesman for printing
As Old Oregon goes to press, Mr . Cooper apparently i s
preparing to circulate his complete petitions through the local
tax reduction clubs which exist principally in the lower part
of the Willamette valley .
Throughout this movement, Mr . Cooper has had som e
support from individuals in Salem and from a part of th e
rural and village population of Marion, Yamhill, Washington
and one or two adjoining counties. A good many mis-state-
ments and exaggerations have naturally been circulated abou
the University, and presumably about the Agricultural College
this being the chronic experience of higher educational insti-
tutions in many states. Up to this time the University ha s
made no reply, resting upon the belief that it is an econom-
ically administered institution and that in the last two o r
three years it has achieved a great advance in its standards,
in its educational policies, and in the quality of its faculty .
From a half-starved institution, with ill-paid faculty and a
handful of students, with insufficient scientific equipmen t
and with only a few worn-out buildings, it has through th e
judicious use of the second millage lifted itself to a stat e
university of first rank, with 2,250 full-time students i n
residence, not including either the medical school or musi c
specials e
campus, and its great problem now is to keep down its num-
bers so that the first and second millages will confine to pro
vide maintenance for work of hi gh standard and leave a
small margin for building and repairs .
One of the chief among the mis-statements circulated re-
garding the University is that it has gone back repeatedly to
the legislature for special appropriations since the secon d
millage bill passed. The niversity has not asked the legis-
lature for a cent since the second millage bill passed . Th e
second millage bill was intended for maintenance and instrue-
tion of the resident departments at Eugene . and for exten-
sion. The University of Oregon Medical School . which has
been on a separate maintenance from the day that it firs t
asked permission to use the state University name, has con-
tinued to he on a separate maintenance
resentation in the literature of the campaign that the medica
school was to be financed by the Eugene budget thereafter .
The appropriations for the medical school in the las t
legislative session ha pened to be higher than usual because
the General Education Board (Rockefeller) had asked th e
state to match the first of a series of appropriations whic h
the Board intended making to this edical school legis-
lature did so . This appropriation was for buildings . Th e
medical school appropriation for the 1923 legislative session
will probably be for maintenance only. Maintenance in th e
past has been less than $100,000 a year
Etching of Shakespeare Give
As an untgrowthf the recent enga gement in Eugene of
the noted Shakespearean actor, Walter Hampden, is the gift
to the University of the portrait of the great dramatist b y
Professor A . H . Schroff. of the fine arts department . Th e

Art Museum Is Formally Dedicate d
A sT EPOCH in the history of the University was markedut the establishing of the Warner Art Collection, th egift of Mrs . Gertrude Bass Warner, as a permanen t
museum of the University, according to art authorities wh o
have viewed this rare collection of oriental art objects . Th e
collection is the work of the late Major Murray B, Warner ,
one of the few western connoisseurs who were in the Orien t
during the time of the Boxer rebellion, and was gathered by
him under conditions and circumstances that include many
thrilling and unusual experiences. Through Mrs . Warner s
great generosity and deep friendship for the University, thi s
rare collection, which includes some of the most valuable and
unique specimens in the world, has been installed as a per-
maneut museum of the University, and is displayed i n
especially designed art galleries and cases in the Woman s
memorial building
In impressive ceremonies at which art lovers from all over
the state were assembled, the Warner collection was formally
presented to the University by Judge Charles H . Carey, o f
the Portland Art Museum, and was received by Mrs . George
T. Gerlinger, of the board of regents of the University . A t
this time the unselfish friendship of Mrs . Warner for th e
University as a whole, and for culture and improvement i n
general, was emphasized by every speaker of the occasion .
President Campbell dwelt on the far-reaching effects such a
gift will have not only on the University at present, hut on th
future generations throughout the state which will feel deeply
the influence of this collection on art and culture .
The opening exhibit was arranged in the two large clu b
rooms of the Woman building and in an especially con-
structed museum in the balcony on the gymnasium . On e
room contained the Japanese prints and the other, with the
small room off the lower gymnasium, the choicest painting s
of Professor Alfred Schroff, of the department of fine arts ,
and the work of the departments of normal arts and architec-
ture. There was also an exhibit of student work in th e
studios of the art and architecture departments.
Perhaps the most priceless pieces of the collection are th
tapestries and embroideries which are draped about the walls
and displayed about the room in cases. One especially rar e
tapestry is suspended between the second and third storie s
of the building in an immense glass case . There are als o
porcelains which include some of the old blue, fire color, sang
boeuf and peaehblow varieties of medieval Chinese production.
Japanese prints constitute perhaps the largest section of
the collection. One of these is especially noticeable and is
a rare and valuable example of the period when the Chinese
and Indian art were intermingled . This print depicts th e
death of Buddha
There are ancient ceremonial robes, some of which wer e
worn by the ancient Manchu emperors, and these with their
beautiful design and workmanship are studies in themselves.
Among the examples of Chinese and Japanese lacque r
there is an old Japanese chest of Korin design which is beau-
tiful in decoration and finish . This section of the museu m
includes some of the rarest pieces of lacquer in the world ,
many of them being the old cinnabar.
From India, China and Japan come pieces of old armor ,
and weapons of strange design, heavily wrought and deco -
rated. With this collection is the knife used to decapitat e
the leaders of the Boxer rebellion and the original flag car -
lied by the revolutionists in the uprisings of 1900 . On thi s
flag is the inscription, "Exterminate the Foreigner ."
Au ancient Chinese temple bell, over 1,000 years old, an
a bronze vase of about the same period are included. Ther e
is a mirro rof brass which still retains its original reflectin g
power, and was used to frighten away the had spirits whic h
were supposed to be frightened by their reflection on th e
polished surface d
ivory, an ancient snuff box, some pieces of pottery of ex-
quisite beauty. There are a fire-colored bowl and an ol d
iron rust porcelain of the Ming dynasty . Of curious desig n
is a group of vases of the three-clawed dragon period. Ver y
ancient also is an old Chinese three-tiered stove of open bras
work, and several smaller stoves of Japanese workmanship.
It is evident that with the acquisition of the wonderfu l
Warner exhibit, the University faces a new era in its de-
velopment of art and culture d
generosity of the donor of this gift ., a new breath has passe
over the campus of the University and from distant lands i s
felt the spell of the Orient and the charm of the Far East
Oregon History Being Compile d
M ATERIAL for a annpreheusive history of the Universit yof Oregon is now being collected under the direction of
11 . Sheldon, dean of the school of education . Sheldon
hits secured a great mass of documentary material which wil
form an authentic .background for his history, but material
revealing the personal side, which will give to his work tha t
touch of human interest, is harder to find
"In appealing to the alumni through Old Oregon I hop e
to secure valuable sidelights on the history of the University,
Dr. Sheldon says
versity may have in the way of letters, diaries, clippings fro
newspapers, photographs, or any other material winch throws
light upon the history of the University will be greatly ap-
preciated. Valuable material will be kept in the safe its th e
Administration building and other contributions will be lef t
in the care of the library."
Miss Pauline Walton, 4, librarian in the law school, i s
classifying the data and has charge of the material submitted.
In the material already secured, showing the personal in-
terest side, is the diary of Judge Deady, for many years a
regent of the University. The Oregon Historical society als o
has sent in some very interesting stuff concerning, the early
days of the University, such as the account of how H. It. Kin-
caid, when the legislature was almost ready to close with many
measures untouched, got the bill to establish the University
at Eugene passed, though be had to have its place change d
from the bottom of the pile to the top .
A. T. O. To Have New Home
The Alpha Tau Omega fraternity, after occupying thei r
present home on Oak street for ten years, will move in th e
summer to their new location on the corner of 13th and Kin-
caid streets, where F. O. Taylor of Eugene is building a frame
house according to their plans. The fraternity has taken a
three-year lease on the building, which is to cost betwee n
$10,000 and $12,000.

Charlie Fento n
Last fall Miss Charlie Fenton decided to complete a secretarial
course in a Berkeley secretarial school, which she had begun
before coming to the alumni secretaryship d
a leave of absence from the University for this purpose, and
everyone looked forward to the day when she would return .
But upon completing the course she received the offer of the
private secretaryship to the dean of the school of business i
the University of California, which she accepted, pending, it
is understood by close friends, her final acceptance of anothe
and more personal offer.
Miss Charlie was secretary of the Alumni Association for
a longer time than any other secretary since the association has
had a "regular" secretary; her resignation will be regretted by
a host of alumni whohave had occasion to become acquainted
with her personality or through the extensive correspondenc
which it was part of her work to carry on. To those who wer e
closely associated with her in her work on the campus the los
will be a personal one. For though Charlie was always bus y
with her alumni work, she was never so busy but that whena
legislative committee called or there was a new building t o
dedicate or a long-lost alumnus to be shown the wonders of
the present day campus, she was first to volunteer to help .
And it was always real help, loyal, whole-hearted and efficient,
The alumni record, which now lists nearly all of the livin g
graduates and a large part of the former students not gradu-
ates, is very largely her work, a task which she had expecte
to complete ready for publication this fall.
And so Charlie, though the mailman no longer brings us
those oft received letters signed with your fair round hand ,
and though we miss you from your accustomed haunts on the
campus, you take with you our deep appreciation of you r
splendid work and our best wishes for the future . May al l
alumnibe as you !
The Graduate Club
The graduate school of the University of Oregon is growin g
and achieving recognition d
countries-France, Greece, Russia, China-have entered Ore-
gon this year in order to specialize iii various fields of graduate
work. About 75 students have been registered in the graduate
school this year and many fields of work have been entered.
The _raduaio str.dcuts m-e organized into the Graduate club,
the purpose of which is to encourage research, broad culture
and fellowship t
the year. These meetings have been both social and intellec-
tual in character. The graduate school is a comparatively new
department on the Oregon campus, and the Graduate club is
still a young and rather inexperienced organization, but it isa
valuable one, and one which, it is hoped, will grow and broaden
iu its scope and reach, more fully in the following year, it s
real possibilities
A Word About Due s
The Alumni Association membership and subscription dues
are $2 a year, less than a cent a day, less than the price ofa
five-cent carfare a week. The alumni office depends for i t
income on the dues sent in by the graduates and forme r
students
Here are some of the expenses for which the income i s
used: To provide postage, stationery, minting and equip-
ment necessary to maintain the alumni office.
To publish OLD OREGON during the academic year.
To catalogue the names, addresses and occupations of the
6,000 graduates and former students of the University.
To compile and publish an alumni, directory, one of which
is now being prepared
To arrange the annual alumni reunion at commencemen
time and to assist with the class reunions
To compile the war records of Oregon men .
To assist alumni to locate teaching and business positions.
To inform the people of the state of Oregon concernin g
the ideals and achievements of their State University.
To promote, through the alumni organization, the welfare
of the University .
Will you do your part in order that the business of th e
alumni association may be carried on in a satisfactory man-
ner?
Loyalty to One's Colleg e
Loyalty to one college involves persistent and intelligent
interest in all that concerns the welfare of our Alma Mater .
It. means that steadily through all the years we keep- ourselves,
informed of the affairs of our college, of its personnel an d
equipment, of the work that it does, of the product that i t
turns out. It means that we should study from the outsid e
angle the demands of the hour upon the colleges, and that Ave
should know from the inside to what extent . our college i s
meeting these demands ge
suffering for lack of tools? Are salaries adequate to secur e
men and women of power?
Loyalty means that one can always be counted on by one
college to stand by, to respond with information, advice, in-
fluence, work, money doone more
thing; that, poor as one is, one is willing to share what on e
has, if by any means one can serve Alma Mater

Oregon Athletics
By JOHN DIERDORFF,  2
" Be a . Good Scout "
Victories for Oregon teams were not numerous this spring.
In baseball and track the varsities were outclassed in almost
every contest and wins were few. The only conference base -
ball games won were two of the four played with Whitma n
and the varsity track team did not succeed in taking any o f
the meets in which it was entered.
Scarcity of veterans from previous years and a paucit y
of new material from which to fill vacancies is the cause t o
which most of the defeats of the varsity can be attributed ,
although it must be admitted that some rather keen compe-
tition was stirring in Northwest circles this year . And thi s
brings to mind a remedy which is for all alumni of the Uni-
versity to get out and work for their alma mater in the wa y
of persuading high school athletes to select the Universit y
of Oregon instead of some other institution of higher learning
when the time comes for them to make a decision.
The charge has been made that other Pacific Coast colleges
have resorted to scouting to obtain men of exceptional athleti
ability and talk of "paid" athletes can be heard from tim e
to time. If such conditions do exist it is for the conferenc e
officials to make investigation; at Oregon, however, athletics
have been definitely established on a clean basis and as lon
as the present coaching staff and physical education depart
mental heads are in power there is not the slightest dange r
of shady tactics being resorted to.
The alumnus who has the best interests of the University
at heart must realize his responsibility in the way of provid-
ing good and legitimate material for the coaches to work upon.
He must be staunch in his loyal praise of the institution and
must be ready to uphold its cause with vigor against al l
corners. Nothing is so damning as faint praise or lukewar m
defense, perhaps accompanied by a non-committal admission
of the charge . Oregon fight must not be packed away i n
mothballs only to be brought out at such stated intervals as
Homecoming or class reunions t
on tap.
There is nothing like a story bearing upon an anticipated
experience to interest a person, especially when that person
is a high school student looking forward to a university career
And every alumnus of the University of Oregon has score s
of stories packed away in his memory-stories of now famous
games on old Kincaid, of class pranks, of rallies and o f
academic life. These are the things which carry the grea t
appeal to the high school boy. With it, of course, should b e
coupled an accurate and adequate knowledge of present day
courses so that really valuable advice can be given
Such a personal evangelism will solve whatever proble m
may face the Oregon coaches in securing material upon whic
to work. It will again place Oregon at the top in all branches
of sports and most of all will enable the University to be a
leader in the fight for absolutely clean athletics whom all wil
be proud to follow .
"Alumnus, talk University of Oregon to your high schoo l
athlete, and beenthusiastic,"
Trac k
The varsity lost dual meets to O. A. C. and the University
of Washington this year and came out third in the Pacifi c
Coast-Northwest conference meet at Seattle e
were men on the team able to take enough first places to mak
some of the meets very close, the varsity weakness lay i n
seconds and thirds, especially seconds, and the O . C. meet
was lost because of the inability of the Oregon team to cap-
ture sufficient second places to bolster up the firsts.
But one man an the team this year was an athlete before
he came to the University, which again illustrates the neces-
sity for the alumni to see that good prospects are steered t o
Eugene well filled with the doctrine of Oregon . fight and
good sportsmanship
The record of the meets is as follows :
State Relay Meet, Eugene: Oregon 47, 0. A. C. 54.
Oregon vs. O. A. C., Corvallis: Oregon 60, 0. A . C. 72.
Oregon vs. U. of W ., Eugene: Oregon 56, U. of W . 75.
Pacific Coast meet, Seattle : Oregon third .
Larson and Oberteuffer, Oregon sprinters, sprang som e
surprises in the O. A . C. meet by beating Snook in both the
100 and 220, and then Larson beat Hurley in the 100 a t
Eugene have
shown exceptional development in the past year . Spearow ,
pole vaulter, high jumper and broad jumper, is anothe r
athlete who can be depended on. In most of the meets thi s
year he was high point man, often taking first in every event
in which he was entered. He will represent Oregon at th e
Intercollegiate meet in Chicago on June 16.
Ole Larson will captain the varsity next year, succeeding
Glen Walkley, for the past three years one of the star miler s
on the coast.  r
Baseball
Lack of pitchers handicapped Coach Bohler early in th e
season and as the baseball nine had to play some of the best
teams that have been seen in action for several years, th e
results of practically every game were unfavorable . Ba d
weather was also a handicap during a good deal of the early
training
The seasons results are as follows:
Oregon 7, U. of W . 17.
Oregon 1, U. of W . 2.
Oregon 4, O. A . C. 8.
Oregon 6, O. A . C . 11.
Oregon 7, Whitman 5.
Oregon 11, Whitman 17.
Oregon 1. . A . C . 11.
Oregon 3, O. A . C . 6.
With this year pitching staff intact and but few me n
leaving, prospects for a good team next year are excellent .
Some very good material is coming up from the freshma n
team as well. The greatest loss to the team will be that o f
"Spike" Leslie, veteran catcher, who not only held up wel l
behind the bat but clouted the ball for an average of .361

Ben Selling Makes Gif t
A NOTHER recent gift to the University is a thousan ddollars given by Ben Selling, a merchant of Portland ,
to increase the student loan fund of the University . Th e
gift is a part of a distribution of $27,000 'made by Mr . Selling
to institutions of higher learning on the occasion of his sev-
entieth birthday .
The Ben Selling loan fund was established about te n
years ago when he donated $100 to the University to be use d
as loans to students needing help to complete their colleg e
work. The interest on the fund has increased the amoun t
of the original gift to nearly $160 .Mr
. Selling is known throughout the state for his gener-
osity to public institutions of education and for his philan-
thropic donations . The recent distribution of $27,000 i s
only a small part of the many gifts he has made during hi s
many years' residence in Portland . The University has al -
ways been able to count Mr . Selling as one of its best friend s
and a loyal supporter of higher education in Oregon .
The gift came at a very opportune time, as the loan fun d
of the University had but $200 left .
Paleontologists Get a Thril l
A RECENT collecting trip taken by Miss Rachel Husban dand Miss Dorothy Dixon, advanced students in paleon-
tology at the University of Oregon, led to the rediscovery o f
a peculiar type of oyster in the rocks near Slide, Dougla s
county, Oregon .
The purpose of the expedition was to collect as large a
suite of marine mollusks as was possible from the Eocen e
rocks outcropping along the banks of the Umpqua river, and
to find, if possible, duplicates of a peculiar specimen o f
oyster already in the Condon museum .
Roth of the objects were attained for the young wome n
brought back a large number of different .kinds of snail s
and clams that had lived at the dawn of the age of mammals .
These fossils included several forms new to science whic h
will be described later and figured . The still more importan t
result of the trip was the discovery through the courtesy o f
Mr. Crane of Roseburg, of the identical bed from whic h
Condon, years ago, had found the specimen of the ancien t
oyster which he presented to the Condon museum .
A large number of similar specimens of this clam know n
as Exogyra, were collected by the members of this expeditio n
and are now being studied in the museum .
This particular genus has long been thought to be re-
stricted to the Mesozoic or age of reptiles, consequently for-
mations containing this type have always been referred t o
as the Jurassic or Cretaceous . In Oregon, however, this an-
cient oyster is apparently associated with such clams as Cardit a
planicosta, that is recognized as belonging to the age of mam-
mals. The finding of these forms in rocks of a geologi c
period after they were supposed to have been extinct else -
where in the world constitutes a definite contribution t o
science that is deserving of special mention and will be re-
ceived with interest by the paleontologists throughout th e
world.
The genus Exogyra is a member of the oyster family ,
named from the oyster, belonging to the genus Ostrea . Th e
family can trace its ancestry back to the coal age of the lat e
Paleozoic. The group of Exogyra appeared several million s
of years later in the Jurassic, the middle period of the ag e
of reptiles . It resembles the oyster from which it was derive
in early attaching itself to some foreign object and thence -
forth living a life of ease . Unlike the oyster it possessed a
peculiar forward twisted beak, which overhung the hinge, a
character possessed only by this one member of the family ..
After the uplift of the Rocky mountains this clam, accordin g
to our present knowledge, died everywhere save in Oregon ,
where it enjoyed the semi-tropical conditions for a millio n
years after its fellows in other parts of the world had dis-
appeared.
E. E . DeCou Gives Cu p
A . NEW cup was given to the high school winning th estate debating championship this y gar as the Salem hig h
school, by winning the University of Oregon Cup last year ,
secured it permanently, having won it three times . The ne w
trophy is known as "The DeCou Cup" in honor of the donor ,
Professor E . E . DeCou of the University faculty, and founde r
of the Oregon High School Debate League, and who is largel y
responsible for its success .
The cup stands twelve inches high and is of Grecian de -
sign with the laurel wreath and berries forming a borde r
around the brim . It will become the permanent property o f
the high school winning it three times . The final debate t o
decide the state championship was held at the Universit y
during Junior Week-end, the final contestants being Grant s
Pass high school and Pendleton high school, the latter winnin g
a two to one decision, on the question : "Resolved, That a
graduated income tax should be made a feature of the stat e
system of taxation in Oregon ."
Appropriations for five of the state universities for th e
coming biennium are : Minnesota, $7,780,000 ; Michigan ,
$4,000,000; Iowa, $8,585,000 ; Illinois, $8,000,000 ; and Wis-
consin, $6,696,000

Editing Class Puts Out Eugen e
Morning Register
T HE sixteen students in Dean Eric W . Allen class i nediting in the University of Oregon School of Journalism
took over the news and editorial ends of the Eugene Mornin
Register, Sunday, May 7. The Register that morning was a
22-page paper, and every bit of material was written an d
edited by members of the class
The range of writing ran all the way from the short loca l
("Caught in the Rounds") to feature stories of Eugene an d
its industries
The policy of allowing all the students in the department--
now about 145 to take part in the publication of such edition
has long since been abandoned, and the work is now restricte
to one class, whose members handle the paper without aid fro
their instructor
The whole seven columns of editorial page material wa s
written and edited by the members of the class, whose work
was complimented by Frank Jenkins, president of the Registe
company and editor of the paper l
local news, where the least strength had been expected, the
young reporters outdid themselves by turning in nearly . 150

1 MEDICAL SCHOOL NOTE S
The work on the new wing of the medical school building
is progressing rapidly and we expect to move into it durin g
the summer in order that alterations may be completed on th
old building before the beginning of the fall session of school
Mr. Charles Ferguson and Mr . Ira A . Manville were r ,
eeutly presented for their master degrees by faculty member
of the medical school
sented for the master deg ree from the University by th e
medical school.  r 
The prompt checking of the epidemic of septic sore throa
which occurred in Portland in March was due in a large meas-
ure to the quick and thorough action taken by certain mem-
bers of the University of Oregon medical school, who wer e
called upon by Mayor Baker to trace to its source the cause
of the epidemic and, if possible, to eradicate it
The same day that cases of septic sore throat were reported
March 27, Dr. R. . Benson, professor of pathology of th e
medical school, was asked as city bacteriologist to undertak
investigation. Within a few hours the dairy to which the in-
fection was traced was required to pasteurize the milk an d
this resulted in the immediate checking of the epidemic h
the help of Prof. II . J. Sears, professor of bacteriology of the
medical school, the cause was worked out e
found whose udders were infected with hemolytic streptococcu
and a similar organism was found in the throat of one milker
Both cows were killed and examined s
recovered from the throats of all patients examined
plete survey of the dairy route was made t
about 1500 people used this milk, and among these were nearl
500 cases of septic sore throat, some severe and others mild
Twenty deaths occurred l
all the cows in the dairy have been carefully cultured at leas
twice.

Dan W . Bass, manager of the Hotel Frye, Seattle, whil e
attending the hotel men convention held recently in Eugene,
visited the campus, which he knew when Deady hallwas the
only building and the Condon oaks the only trees . Whil e
here he told of a prank of his college days when certain rule
of conduct which had been posted on the campus were para-
phrased by Wallace Mount, 3, later Judge Mount of th e
supreme court of the state of Washington. Stephen J . Chad-
wick, 2, who also became a judge, had them printed, an d
Jeff Fenton, 4, later Dr . J . D. Fenton of Portland, an d
Mr. Bass posted them all over the streets of Eugene on e
night after 2 olock . Mr . Bass said that so far as he knew
the faculty failed to ever discover the perpetrators of th e
prank, though they tried hard enough. Another of the remi-
niscences of Mr. Bass was, as they had no system of bells ,
when the class hour was up the students left the classroo m
whether the instructor was through lecturing or not "I have
always thought this plan was very good," this "old grad "
jovially declared.

Financial Manhoo d
"Every month our bank sends back over 300 checks written by young peopl e
who have not sufficient funds deposited tb meet the payments."
This statement was made by an officer in cue of the Eugene banks . It indicates that a startlin g
per cent of young men and women are in a state of financial babyhood-tha t they do not eve n
understand the fundamental principles of a checking account !
It is to the members of the Alumni Association who are establishing homes of their own tha t
this advertisement is addressed . Begin the financial education of your children as soon a s
they can talk . Give them an allowance-even though it is only a penny or two a week t o
begin with-and make the allowance dependent on some regular task . Insist on a weekl y
account of expenditures, in order to help them know the value of money .
In other words, teach principles of banking to them at home . Then you will know, when th e
youngsters pack their trunks for the University of Oregon, that in addition to good character s
and well built bodies, you are sending them forth equipped to handle the "money problems "
of their University course with the wisdom which comes with real Financial Manhood .
