Rosson, graduat e manager, and N . Thomas Stoddard, as- sistant in charge o f athletics, jointly an- nounced their resigna- tions, effective July 1 . Thus, student body government, jus t beginning to revise its affairs in light o f the defeat of the uniform activity fe e bill, was again thrown into confusio n through the loss of its two chief execu - tive officers . Both Rosson and Stod- dard, in making their decisions public , declared that it was their belief that th e system of student activity administra- tion is faced with drastic reorganization , and that they did not wish to have i t felt that they wer e standing in the wa y of such action . Though neither ha s announced his fu- ture plans, it is def- initely understoo d that both intend t o enter other fields o f endeavor . Just what the in- terim between no w and the next schoo l year will brin g about in way of a revision of studen t body reorganizatio n is doubtful . The de - feat of the studen t activity fee bil l quashed all chance s of assessing a uni- form fee of all stu- dents for all activi- ties - although i t is doubtful, eve n though the voters had approved the bill, that athletic sup - port would have been included in a n uniform fee . The state board of highe r education still has, however, the righ t and authority to assess a fee for thos e activities that can be justified as educa - tional in nature . In this fact lies th e hope for an equitable solution to th e problem . COMMITTEE of the A .S .U.O. executive council has been appoint - ed to study the whole matter of reorgan - ization and to recommend possible suc - cessors to Rosson and Stoddard . Th e trend of thinking by those who under - stand the problems appears to poin t toward a separation of the activity pro - gram into two divisions-athletic (t o operate under an optional fee plan) an d non-athletic (to operate under an uni - form fee plan) . Under this general plan of reorganization the administra- tion of each "divisio n" would be separ - ate, but both would be more directly re - sponsible to the institution than in th e past . This would be especially true i n the case of the non-athletic activities , since they would be operating under a regular institutional fee that must legal - ly be administered by the institution . In view of the uncertainty for the fu- ture of the A .S .U.O. as a separate an d distinct organization, Rosson and Stod - dard can not be blamed for the actio n they have taken . Both of these me n came to the graduate manage r's office in 1930, Rosson from an assistant profes - sorship in the law school and Stoddar d directly from the student body presi- dency the previous year . Under Rosson's administration stu- dents have seen the huge indebtednes s of their associatio n Rosson an d Stoddar d Resign STUDENT BODY EXECUTIVES RESIGN POST S Hugh E. Rosson, graduate manager, and N . Thomas Stoddard, assistant in charg e of athletics, who have resigned their positions with the A .S.U .O. effective July 1 . whittled down con- tinuously until to - day only a smal l portion is left . Thi s also would h a v e been wiped out b y now had it not bee n for the advent o f the optional fee de - creed by the attor- ney - general 1 a s t year. At the sam e time students hav e seen their progra m constantly improve d and strengthened t o a point where i t ranked on a pa r with the best activi- ty programs in th e country both fro m the standpoint o f effective adminis- tration and educa- tional benefits . No little credi t can go to Rosson , and his capable as- 2 Old Oregon February, 1936 sistant, for the success and efficienc y and progress of student body affair s during the years 1930 to 1936 . Hi s ability as an administrator, his integrity , and his enthusiasm have been tempere d with a fine understanding and apprecia- tion of the work under his control as a n important and necessary adjunct to th e program of a well-rounded educationa l institution, No matter into whose hand s the administration of student body ac- tivities may fall in the future, no mor e lofty purpose than that held by Hug h Rosson can be adopted . Though the or- ganization may be vastly different in th e future, the general purposes and tradi- tions developed under Hugh Rosso n will be of lasting benefit to the institu - tion he has served so well . Governor 's Move Is Wise On e T HE Governor 's refusal to reappoin tMr . Finseth does not in any way re- flect upon the integrity or ability of th e Dallas man . Governor Martin has , however, done much to strengthen fur- ther a needed tradition that higher edu- cation must be immune from politica l molestation if it is to function with an y degree of efficiency and produce the UNIVERSITY FRIEN D Earle Wellington, president of the OregonDads and of the University of Orego n Federation, who died February 22. values to the state that are expected o f it. He has further demonstrated his un- derstanding of the needs of higher edu- cation in his selection of Mr . Ruhl fo r the post on the state board . Mr . Ruh l is scholarly, keen, and highly sympa- thetic to the problems of higher educa- tion . He is a graduate of Harvard Uni- versity, and as such, has no local educa - tional loyalties other than to the stat e in which he lives . His judgment, hi s courage as demonstrated as an editor , and his understanding of the problem s and purposes of higher education mak e PRESIDEN T Dr . Boyer Formal Hea d Dr . Clarence Valentine Boyer wa s formally inaugurated as president o f the University at impressive academi c ceremonies on the campus February 6 . Leading educators and delegate s from more than a hundred colleges, uni - versities and learned societies scattere d through many states gathered for a ful l day of events which ushered in the high - est honors given to Dr . Boyer durin g his life-time devoted to higher educa- tion 's development . Within the towering walls of Mc - Arthur court, the dignity of somber cap s and gowns and the flare of brillian t robes denoting advanced degrees, th e measured strains of the inaugura l march, and the concise, thoughtful hint an admirable choice for the positio n to which he has been elevated . * * HE University of Oregon lost a loyal friend and ardent patriot o n February 22 when Earle Wellington , president of both the Oregon Dads or - ganization a n d t h e University of Orego n Federation, succumbe d to a heart attack in hi s Portland office . It is highly probabl e that on the very day of his death Earl e 'Wellington was thinking or doing some - thing in the interests of the institutio n he loved so well and served so enthu- siastically . For seldom a day went b y that some friend of the University, fro m President Boyer on down to the green- est freshman, did not come to Earl e Wellington for advice or assistance . Not a graduate of the University , Earle Wellington became deeply inter- ested in the institution five years ag o when his son Gilbert registered as a freshman . During the Zorn-Macpher- son campaign on down through the tax - limitation bill fight, which endangere d educational appropriations, Earle Wel- lington could be found at the head o f the lines throwing his ability and en- thusiasm into any enterprise that ha d the welfare of the University as its cen- tral purpose . So strongly did he believ e in the University and its future that hi s activities were often carried on at con- siderable personal sacrifice of resource s and even friendship . Earle Wellington was the type of ma n that the University was more than prou d to list as a friend . words of numerous eminent speaker s lifted witnesses of the spectacle to ne w visions for the future of higher learn- ing . In the midst of this setting, the titl e of president was officially conferred o nDr . Boyer by Willard L . Marks, chair - man of the board of higher education , and Chancellor Frederick M . Hunter , while Governor Martin and a host o f state and local officials, as well as hund - reds of faculty men, students an d townspeople, looked on . The new president, declared Chair - man Marks, "is a man completely de- . voted to his profession, a man of pois e and dignity, a calm and logical thinker , careful and prudent and diplomatic, bu t purposeful and forceful when it i s necessary ." Responding with animation, Presi - Wellingto n Death I s Real Los s A N event of real significance to high -er education in Oregon, was Gov- ernor Charles H . Martin 's recent ap- pointment of Robert W . Ruh], Medfor d publisher, to the stat e board of higher educa - tion . Mr . Ruh! fills th e vacancy created by th e expiration of the ter m of office held by Lei f Finseth of Dallas . Mr . Finseth's service to the state an d the institutions under the control of th e state board of higher education has bee n of the finest type . He has acted impar- tially and with intelligence . And in a sense it is regrettable that the Governo r deemed it wise to name a new man t o fill the post . However, as the time for appoint- ment drew near, political groups in Pol k county took it upon themselves to "ad- vise" the governor upon the appoint- ment, basing their "advice " on partisa n political grounds . Whether willfully o r not, Leif Finseth was drawn into thi s controversy . The Governor 's answer, in the ap- pointment of another man, was bot h wise and emphatic . Adequate adminis- tration of higher educational affairs de - mands that the state board of higher ed - ucation be free of partisan political in- fluences . To paraphrase an old saying , when politics comes in the door, hones t educational endeavor goes out the win- dow . C A M P U S February, 1936 Old Oregon 3 dent Boyer, in his inaugural address , lauded the ideal of freedom, and ex- plained its relation to education in a democracy, then sounded a challenge , with a portent of warning . Responds With Challeng e "Youth is indifferent to the ideal o f freedom, " he said . "This is the saddes t omen of our time, for freedom is abov e material welfare and economic security . Youth is not to blame, for there is n o unified program to further the huma n values of civilization and lift up ideal s worth striving for . "We need to take stock of our ideals, " he sternly declared . "The ttnemploy- ment and present demoralization, th e fall of governments in post-war Eu- rope, the rapid rise of dictatorships, de- mand that we bring our most critical in- telligence to bear upon the actual sig- nificance of freedom, of democracy, o f industrialism to the individual and t o society." More optimistically and with a ple a for a sane perspective, the honore d speaker noted humanitarian progress i n abolition of slavery, in the advance o f psychology and biology . "Plannin g based upon hope," he remarked, "is n o less reasonable than planning base d upon despair ." Faculty Pledges Faith . Accomplishments tinder the leader - ship of President Boyer, who for tw o years has acted in that capacity withou t formal recognition, was voiced by a faculty spokesman, Dr . Rudolf Ernst , professor of English . "He already ha s our loyalty and esteem," he said for th e faculty . Visiting educators extended forma l greetings on behalf of institutions o f higher learning in other regions . Dr . Monroe E . Deutsch, University of Cali- fornia 's vice-president, speaking in be - half of state universities, asked coopera- tion between students and executives, and stressed the president's responsi- bility in selecting faculty members . Banquet for Greeting s Inaugural ceremonies were precede d by a split session, one devoted to pro- fessional and the other to liberal educa- tion, which took place in the morning . The day closed with a banquet, at whic h Judge James T . Brand, of the secon d judicial district circuit court bench, wa s highlight speaker . President of the University Alumni , Ben R . Chandler, brought greeting s from the group, and declared the day 's ceremonies "the fulfillment of a cher- ished hope on the part of the Universit y of Oregon alumni ." "The University, " he added, "will now be able to buil d and grow on its own initiative ." Others who extended greetings at th e closing dinner were : James Blais, As- sociated Students president ; Dean Mah - lon Ellwood Smith, of Oregon Stat e College ; Dexter M . Keezer, presiden t of Reed College ; Dr . Aurelia Henr y Reinhardt, president of Mills College , Oakland ; Dr . Lee Paul Sieg, presiden t of the University of Washington . MILITAR Y Optional vs. Compulsor y That perennial campus issue, shal l military training be compulsory or op- tional, has reared its head once agai n and has been the subject of much dis- cussion and jockeying for position dur- ing the past term . "Optionalists," headed by many o f the same students who led the fight fo r optional student body fees, started th e revival of the old question recently b y distributing petitions addressed to th e faculty requesting that it recommend t o the state board of higher education tha t military courses on the campus be mad e optional . Last year, under similar cir- cumstances, the faculty split evenly on the issue and President Boyer broke th e deadlock by casting his ballot in favo r of the present system . This year, however, more organize d opposition to the "optionalists" has de- veloped in the form of a "committee fo r general university welfare ." Like th e opponent group, this new organizatio n started circulating petitions in favor o f the present system, which makes mili- tary training compulsory during the firs t two collegiate years, although compara- tively liberal exemption regulations ar e provided . With two sets of conflicting petition s before them, each of approximately 60 0 names each, the faculty decided to giv e the question further study, referred th e matter to its advisory council . At its last meeting the state board o f higher education also took cognizanc e of the situation and appointed a commit - tee composed of Mr . B . F . Irvine, Mrs . Beatrice Walton Sackett and Mr . Her - man Oliver to make an investigatio n and report back . CAMPUS NOTE S ITBetty Hughes, '30, for two year s secretary to the campus Y .W.C .A., ha s resigned her position effective in June . Mrs .

This was the firs t session of its kind to be held in Oregon , and plans were made for a repetition o f the event next year . Problems of teach- ing elementary psychology drew the par- ticular attention of the delegates . Gerlinger Hostess Name d Gerlinger hall has a new hostess, Mrs . Edith Siefert, '10, who recently too k over the duties of Mrs . Elizabeth Wil- son, a familiar figure at the Univer- sity's finest reception rooms since th e building was opened in 1920. Mrs. Wil- son was forced by ill health to resign . Mrs . Siefert is regarded as well fitte dfor the position, having served as di - rector of the prep school dormitorie s at Antioch College and as assistant t o her sister, Mrs . Edna Prescott Davis , '12, present director of girls ' dormi- tories at Pomona College, California . Their mother, Mrs . Elizabeth Prescott , was manager of Friendly hall when i t was a men's dormitory . Gerlinger hall, under Mrs . Siefert' s direction, will be made center o f women's activities on the campus, par- ticularly those of independent wome n who previously have had inadequat e facilities for social events .

Cooperative House Set U p Cooperative buying and marketin g plans have their counterpart on th e University campus this year . Followin g the example of students on other Pa- cific coast campuses, a group of 20 me n students formed the Student Living as- sociation at the beginning of fall term , and since then have fed and house d themselves on a cooperative basis . Encouraged by the continuance o f the men's cooperative house, 14 girl s have begun plans to open a similar hous e for women at the beginning of sprin g term . A location, a cook and a house - mother will be chosen during the nex t few weeks . In the men 's group, board and ren t costs each member $15 per month, plu s five hours a week . Odd jobs from ditc h digging to correcting papers and clerk- ing bring in enough cash to keep th e young organization going . During fal l term the boys did their own cooking , but this term have hired a cook to ge t lunch and dinner . The members do al l remaining tasks .

F A C U L T Y Vebruary, 1938 Old Oregon ' S P O R T S BASKETBAL L Finish Fourt h The story of Oregon 's 1936 basket - bail season, though ending with th e Webfoot squad in fourth place in con- ference standing, was not the entire dis- appointment that the team 's showin g "on paper " might indicate . In the first place, the Webfoot s proved to be, despite the more or les s disastrous season, by far the most col- orful and popular aggregation to rep - resent the University in many years . I n the eight-game home series, for in - stance, 22,595 spectators attended . Thi s mark bettered by about 3,000 the pre- vious year 's all-time record . In th e eight-game away-from-home series, th e same tendency held good . Total gat e receipts for basketball are expected t o .reach $4,500 following the final check - up . Off to Hopeful Star t Oregon 's in-and-out squad got off t o an encouraging start by defeating Ida - ho for the two openers, and then pro- ceeded to take the title-defending Bea- vers from Corvallis into camp by th e close margin of 29 to 27 . Sports com- mentators throughout the northwes t were sounding a warning to other con- ference contenders : "Look out for th e mighty Grenadiers from Oregon ." But either the hopes for a coast cham- pionship were based on false appraisa l of Howard Hobson 's squad, or else th e team was weakened under the strain o f a gruelling pre-season succession o f contests and handicapped with learnin g a new system, and absorbing transfe r material . Washington Wins Fou r Anyhow, in the four-game serie s with Washington the Webfoots sa w their title hopes snuffed out under a stifling barrage from Hec Edmundson 's basketeers . It was Edmundson, th e dean of northwest basketball coaches , and not Hobson, the newcomer, wh o was to pull the coup in the northern di - vision circuit and win the title . Orego n was let out the back door at Seattl e with two black eyes, 36-38 and 40-26 . The rampant Huskies then called a t McArthur the next weekend and con- tinued their merciless march towar d the championship by administering tw o more drubbings to the battered Web - foots, 42-23 and 35 to 31 . It was amaz- ingly perfect passing and shooting - nothing less-that forced the four-game disaster on Howard Ffobson's towerin g hopefuls . Before traveling to Corvallis for thei r second encounter with Slats Gill's Bea- vermen, where the Insides had als o brought gloom to the Staters, Orego n and her intra-state rivals were rate d about even . Both still had mathemati- cal chances at the championship . Bu t even this hope faded as the Orang e wrecking crew went to work on th e smarting Webfoots . It ended tempor- arily with a score of 49 to 23, only t o be revived again the following weeken d in a thriller in which the Ducks lost thei r sixth straight, 26 to 28 . Despite heroic efforts on the part o f Oregon's Silver and Patterson, th e Stater 's leading point-getter, Wall y Palmberg (who subsequently set a ne w conference high for individual scoring ) was responsible for the two-point loss . Split Series With W .S.C . Washington State offered the Web - foots their next opportunity to redee m their lost prestige . This they did, 4 2 to 35, in the series opener, but failed t o repeat in the second encounter, losin g to an inspired Cougar outfit, 51 to 40 . The came the Webfoots' chance t o even its series against Oregon State - not only that but more . A defeat woul d have destroyed the Beavers' chance a t the title (in the mean time Washingto n had lost two to W .S .C. and one to lowl y Idaho) . But the Staters were hot o n the trail of the Huskies, and Orego n proved to be merely a bothersome oh - struction in the Staters ' trek to Seattle . Oregon lost 35 to 29, and the score doe s not do justice to the struggle that too k place . Again it was Palmberg wh o spelled defeat for the Webfoots . Wins in Inland Empir e Thus, all that remained for Orego n was the Inland Empire jaunt to Mos- cow and Pullman . Flight losses and fou r wins, could be changed to eight of eac h and possible third place in conferenc e standing . The Webfoots started ou t sprightly enough . with two wins ove r Idaho, 22 to 17 and 49 to 33 . But a t Pullman, after a 48-hour rest, Washing - ton State took the touring Webfoots , 44 to 30 . The Ducks' season eneded th e next. night, after they had split the se- ries with the Cougars and won thei r final game, 50 to 45 . However, the los s the night before had definitely place d Ilobson's squad in fourth place . Prospects Encouragin g In view of the I9-wins-out-of-20 - starts record of the frosh this year ; i n view of the fact that several reliabl e regulars will be hack in 1937 ; and be - cause Hobson and his system have bot h been initiated into northwest confer- ence society, the outlook for next yea r is far from discouraging . However, Hobson does lose throug h graduation the two Jones boys, Willi e and Budd, and his two valuable trans- fers from Southern Oregon Normal ; Patterson and Howell ; not to mentio n Rollie Rourke, the fighting Irish guard . HOWARD HOBSON 1936 VARSITY BASKETEER S Back row, left to right : John Lewis, Budd Jones, Dave Silver, Ward Howell, Fran k Levings, Ray Jewell, Oliver Hughes, Willard Jones, Bill Harcombe, Wayne Scott, an d Chuck Patterson . Front row : Jack Campbell, student manager ; Bill Dick, Cliff Mc - Lean, Bill Courtney, Roland Rourke, Ken Purdy, Sam Liebowitz, and Coach Hobson . s Old Oregon February, 193 6 Fans whu look to the future of Ore- gon 's basketball have already found a basis for enthusiasm in "Honest John " Warren's squad of freshmen hoo p stars . The season has uncovered, amon g others, the hall-handling and scorin g prowess of lanky I,addie Gale of Oak - ridge, and light-footed Wally Johan- sen of Astoria, both of them all-stat e men in prep school days . Between the m they have kept high-point honors fo r every one of the contests . Gale score d 219 points in 20 games . Another corne r is Bob Anet, a sparkling guard fro m Astoria . In four encounters with the Rooks , the Frosh came off with three voctorie s and one loss . The defeat is the only on e in 20 games . FOOTBAL L Bjork to Head Varsit Del Bjork, battering blonde tackl e from Astoria, will captain the Orego n footballers next year, it was decided a t a recent "feed" meeting of the squa d at the home of Coach and Mrs . Calli- son. Bjork will lead the team throughou t the playing season . The old method o f a different captain for each game ha s been discarded . The new captain wa s mentioned prominently for all-coas t honors last year and will undoubtedl y be one of Oregon 's stellar players nex t season . Ross Carter, guard, was named honorary captain for the past season . He captained the team in four differen t games and distinguished himself fo r consistent and dependable service . Gael Contest Dropped Oregon and St . Mary's will not mee t on the gridiron in 1936, officials of bot h schools have announced . The Gaels evil] meet Temple Univer- sity on December 5, the date originall y set for the Oregon game, and the Web - foots will have just completed the heav- iest conference season in their history , playing on each of nine successive Sat- urdays . For seven seasons Oregon and St . Mary's met at Kezar stadium in alway s colorful encounters . The Ducks ha d emerged victorious in but one of th e contests, the other six going to the Cali - fornians . The winning team each yea r was awarded the Governor 's trophy, of- fered jointly by the chief executives o f the two states . SWIMMIN G Big Yearfor Mermen The biggest year in Oregon 's swim- ming team history is in the making . T o date three events have contributed t o this fact and two more loom ahead . First, Coach Mike Hoyman's smal l hut proficient squad of natators travele d to California early in February and van- quished the best in collegiate swimmin g teams that that state has to offer . Th e Webfoot splashers registered decisiv e victories over San Jose State (47 to 37) , Stanford (45 to 39), and the Univer- sity of California at Berkeley (48 t o 36) . Second, by defeating the Universit y of Washington 48 to 36 on February 29 . the crack Oregon splashers were in a position to claim the Pacific coast swim - ming championship . New Natatorium Provided And third, a WPA grant of $25,00 0 has been made for the purpose of re - modelling the old gymnasium into a modern swimming pavillion, with ne w locker and shower rooms, a higher roo f to provide for high diving, and bleach- er accommodations for 600 spectators . Work is already under way . The re - modelled structure will utilize only th e north half of the old gym and will fac e on University street . The remainder o f the old gym, which was built in 190 9 and is being replaced by a new moder n PWA building at the corner of Univer- sity and Fifteenth, will be wrecked . New Marks Se In the California meets, Jim Hur d and Jim Reed, both seniors, accounte d for a pair of new coast marks . Hurd, f or - mer Hawaiian all-around champion an d present state free-style record holder , established a new record in the 100 - yard free style for 75-foot pools with a 53.3 seconds performance . Reed, elder of the swimming Ree d brothers, cracked his own 150-yar d backstroke mark by a full second . Hi s new time was 1 :45 .8. In the Washington meet, Oregon ac - counted for two new coast records i n 60-foot pools and Gene Caddey o f Washington set a new coast mark in th e 200-yard breaststroke event . His tim e was 2 :37.8. The marks broken by Ore- gon were in the 300-yard medley rac e when the Reed brothers and Jim Hur d bettered Stanford 's 1933 mark by 4 .9 seconds setting a new coast record o f 3 :13.8. Jim Hurd broke the other rec- ord in a thrilling race in which he beste d Washington's famous Jack Medica i n the 100-yard free-style with his time a t 54.4 seconds . Oregon took six firsts t o the visitor's three . Team Has Olympic Materia A movement is now on foot to sen d Jim Hurd and the Reed Brother s east to the national intercollegiate mee t at Yale University the latter part o f March . This meet will serve as an ex- cellent opportunity for him to make hi s bid for Olympic tryouts and possibl e competition in Germany this summer . Bob Chilton and Clarke Thomsen, ac e divers, have also definitely stampe d themselves as Olympic prospects . For the first time in history, the Ore- gon campus will be the scene of th e northwest swimm ing championshi p meet . On April 4 Pacific coast confer- ence schools north of California wil l gather for the high spot of the aquati c year . The meet is expected to bring ou t one of the finest swimming exhibition s in northwest annals . COACH HOYMAN TRIO OF SWIMMING CIIAMPION S Coach H . S.
