OREGON
JANUARY, 1932
Sometimes there is snow on the Oregon Campus
T H E H O M E O F THE BRUIN S
HEN geographical conditions andthe steady growt
of the Southland demanded that California's State
University operate two distinct units of higher education, a problem con -
fronted such men as Pres . Robert G . Sproul and Provost Ernest Carrol l
Moore . Only men with their vision and spirit of cooperation could hav e
worked out the problem as they have done . . . for now California i s
represented in Los Angeles as well as in Berkeley with distinct educa -
tional units that are one in tradition, loyalty and standards of scholarship.
In the amazingly short period of 12 years ,
the University of California at Los Angeles has developed a well-rounde d
major institution of learning competing with the country's best in schol-
astic and athletic achievement . Here one finds a student body of 6,00 0
and a campus of 400 acres unexcelled in beauty and completeness .
Vision, organization and cooperation too hav e
been responsible for the success of The Texas Company. Here is a grea t
institution that in little more than 30 years has developed an organizatio n
that offers the motoring public petroleum products of standardized ex-
cellence in every one of our 48 States and in 46 foreign countries .

Dear Editor :
Some of the former students and gradu-
ates of the University, who have followe d
the accounting profession since leavin g
school have indicated a desire to associat e
themselves in some form of an organiza-
tion for the protection of mutual interests .
It is proposed that the alumni or ex -
students who have become certified pub-
lic accountants of any state belong to thi s
association. There is to be no cost othe r
than whatever each individual desires t o
spend. Some permanent good may pos-
sibly result and at least we will all ge t
acquainted with each other .
It will be of assistance to us if all wh o
are entitled to belong to this group, a s
above outlined, will write either to th e
undersigned or Mr . J. B. Burleson, C . P. A .,
721 Fidelity Union Building, Dallas ,
Texas .
Yours very truly ,
J. C. Landrud, 3 ,

Evanston, Illinois .
P .S. As a news item to former student s
who knew me, I am now working as hous e
auditor of Montgomery Ward Company ,
Chicago, Illinois ; having been recentl y
transferred from the Denver branch o f
the company .
November, 1931,
Dear Editor :
I recently observed my name listed amon g
those missing in OLD OREGON . Imagine m y
embarrassment! Although I must confes s
negligence in not having sent this question-
naire in before, I am glad to know you ar e
interested enough in my welfare to broad .
cast for my whereabouts .
My associations with Oregon have bee n
entirely those acquired at the Medical Schoo l
but I believe I have picked up some of th e
"old Oregon spirit" and I . believe you ca n
count on me also to boost for the best med-
ical school in the West !
Sincerely ,
Leslie A . White, M .D. 1 .
Eniren No : Dr . Whitewill be interested to
know that manyof his friends have also answeredthe call in Ow
OREGONfor his address. Fromat least ten different sources we have receive
dword that he is an Interne at the Harborvie w
Hospital, Seattle, Washington

Dear Editor :
The writer is one of many who would lik e
to see the name Webfoots abolished, an d
the move now under way for a better nam e
for Oregon athletic teams prompts the sug-
gestion that along with a change of name s
should also be the adoption of a mascot .
The Oregon timber wolf would make a n
excellent mascot, and the name of Wolves ,
which is short, would give the newspape r
head line writers a lot of latitude in writ-
ing up the games with the Huskies, Bears ,
Cougars, Beavers, and so forth . A wolf s
head would also make an excellent aut o
sticker to help advertise the team .
Respectfully ,
E. B . Johnson,

Dear Editor :Enclosed find subscription blank fo r
OLn OaFoou . Ie been trying to get alon g
without one but I have finally been drive n
to it . It is quite interesting to loo k
through the news of the classes and fin d
out what all your old friends and classmate s
are now doing in their great struggle fo r
the almighty dollar or fame .
I am now at the Chicago World Fair ,
A Century of Progress, by its officia l
title, and have been here for eleven months .
I am employed in the Comptroller depart-
ment and find the work exceedingly inter-
esting and very valuable from the stand -
point of gaining experience . One couldn t
ask for a better lace, as this enterprise i s
conducted on a different scale than an y
business that I know of and is totally dif-
ferent, offering more unusual situation s
than one would expect .

P .S.-You don know what a tough tim e
I have defending western football an d
especially Oregon football back here . Th e
victory over N . Y . U . helped a lot . I sa w

Dear Editor :
Just read the article by Robert K . Alle n
, OLD OREGON concerning a
change from Webfoots to Yellowjackets .
Sounds logical, reasonable, journalistic ,
sportsman-like, and a whale of a lot mor e
punch. Let change the name to Yellow -
jackets !
Best of luck to you all out there .

Dear Editor :
A few suggestions to get more alumni t o
subscribe to OLD OREGON? That easy . Al l
you have to do is to turn out as fine num-
bers of the magazine as the last one (Decem-
ber, 1931) . There are two articles in it ;
one by John H . Mueller : "So This Is Rus-
sia," and the other by John R . Mez : "Ore-
gon and Orient ." These two articles alone
are worth the price I am paying for a
year subscription . The article by John H .
Mueller is particularly interesting and il-
luminating and written without any bias .
Sincerely yours ,

Dear Editor :
Just a line to tell you you should hav e
heard the yell that went up in the stand s
of the Northwestern-Illinois football gam e
at Evanston on October 31 when the loud -
speakers announced that Oregon ha d
licked N . Y . U . 14-6 . I think everyon e
of the forty-odd thousands there heard it .
The yellees were James I . Johnson, 7 ;
Sture Johnson,0 ; and myself . The first -
named is a prosperous Chicago attorne y
at present, the second was on a visit wit h
the latter, and I am now glassed as th e
Payne Foundation fellow in psychology ,
doing a research study on the attitudes o f
delinquent boys in Chicago . These phone -
booth gatherings of Oregonians, despit e
the limit in size, are full of good times . I
expect to see Ed Manning (M .A. 0) a t
Madison, Wisconsin, this week-end . I m
going up for their homecoming .
Magazine is O . K ., especially commend birt h
and marriage columns.

Dear Editor :
You will note that I have changed m y
address and it is quite a coincidence, I
think, that I moved just around the corne r
from Claribel Williams Erwin, ex-9, wh o
with her husband and five year old daugh-
ter, Ann, have been living for the past thre e
years in China . They will be here for tw o
years and it is so nice to have an Ore-
gonian near me .
I enjoy OLD OREGON so much, with all it s
news of the old crowd . Can you prin t
more news?
Yours sincerely ,

OLD OREGO N
Selling Social Science
to the StateBy WALTER E . HEMPSTEAD Jr- i 29
Eames Norm: Mr . Hempstead . who received his M.A. from Orego n
in 1931, is now on the faculty of the Department of English . He ha scontributed this article as the first of a contemplated series which ar e
part of a larger plan for bringing the resources of the University mor e
closely and directly to bear on the life of the Commonwealth . Especially
is it hoped that through these articles O[ ORRaoN may help to develo p
among alumni a wider interest in social studies and thus to promote th e
idea that scientific leadership should be called on in solving problems o f
state. It is our belief that such a series of articles, dealing with a n
interpretation of present day problems as seen by men who are specialist sin their fields, will be particularly pertinent at this time of widesprea d
economic depression.
FIRST Alumnus : Surely you do not happen to be amon gthose hard hit by the depression which Wesometimes hear
about even at the University?
Second Alumnus . And my wife is ou t
of work, too . Laid off recently when she became ill . Bu t
she could not get back in. the firm, which was forced to cu t
down on operating expense.
First Alumnus: I presume you learned enough in colleg e
to seek the services of a doctor when ill ?
Second Alumnus: I didn have to go to the Universit y
to learn to come in out of the rain .
First Alumnus: What about your job ?
Second Alumnus: I don suppose even the President s
unemployment committee can do much about getting it back
for me. The whole machinery is out of gear .
First Alumnus : Can the University professors help th e
situation?
Second Alumnus: Oh, I admit that many of them hav e
been life long specialists in social science . They have mor e
information at their command about the conduct of publi c
affairs than any other group in the state.
First Alumnus : Well, then, if it is wise to seek counse l
from a physician when ill, why is not equally wise for a
people, wrought by depression, to seek the counsel of th e
doctors of society, the professors of the social studies in ou r
higher educational institutions
Second Alumnus: But when people are ill, they do no t
always seek the services of a reputable physician w
quacks and non-professionals to prescribe home-grow n
remedies o
you expect the physician to foist his pills down the unwilling
throats of his patients?
First Alumnus : Not necessarily . Sometimes there is a n
emergency, Then the doctor is morally obligated to operate ,
even without the consent of the patient .
Second Alumnus: I see . Have the doctors of society con-
sider that a common public emergency has arisen, that their
services are needed, and then go out to supply the publi c
with the necessary information and guidance . Looks like a
good scheme. Couldn work any worse than the so-calle d
system of quack cures and hand to mouth remedies no w
flooding the corridors of Congress .
And the alumni went their respective ways.
"Social science!" It is a term to conjure with . Perhap s
the reader prefers the term "social studies " ? It is a ne w
concept d
business melt and women know the meaning of either -term?
How many merchants sense the value of applying principle s
of science to the- life of society, even as they, often reluc-
tantly, have been convinced of the value of applying scienc e
in the realm of economist activity ?
How many college graduates have kept in touch with th e
rapid developments in the fields of social science to whic h
they were so sketchily, and formerly so inadequately exposed
during their brief sojourn in the University? More practica l
matters than problems of social science,-college rallies, ath-
letics, campus activities, dating,--occupied their - attention.
How many alumni have read, since graduation, any- reall y
sound text-book unless it pertained exclusively to their in-
dividual occupations
Amazing is the gap between what the social scientist s
might tell us could be and should be, and the glaring realitie
of the social order . This article raises the query : Might no t
the cadence of progress be decidedly slower than necessary ?
Can we not and should we not attempt more earnestly t o
cut the bitter web of stubborn fact to fit the pattern of ou r
dreams? But how ?
Social scientists are not universally agreed as to wha t
could or should be done to cure society, their sick patient .
They agree on certain fundamental treatment, however: Most
social scholars, for instance, favor progressive legislation t o
ameliorate inequitable conditions of the present social order.
As scholars they usually conceive their professional function
as ascertaining economic, political, sociological,, biological ,
and philosophical truths. They present their findings to on e
another and to the resident students, seldom to the masse s
of the people, more seldom to administrators of governmen t
and industry who could use the findings of researchers t o
much greater practical advantage. Certain premises may b e
assumed: (1) In the brains of professors are gathered afte r
many years of impartial, unprejudiced -professional stud y
and scientific investigation, data and knowledge sufficien t
to improve immensely the structure of the social order . (2 )
If the constituent elements of the social order desire improve-
ment, adequate knowledge is available to recreate the environ-
ment,--if applied . But that is the big "if 1" Our kings and

rulers, not subscribing to Plato theory of philosopher kings ,
forget to seek the advice of experts in social science . Littl e
wonder mere parents are often bewildered when their son s
and daughters come home and glibly refer to "social science!
Too deep for Mother and Dad . But is it ?
The theory behind administration of social studies i n
higher educational institutions today is that the youth of th e
state, leaders of "tomorrow," will be trained to see in thei r
time the points of strength and weakness in the social order..
They will be enabled to improve the conditions of life, fif-
teen, or twenty years later when they take hold of the hel m
of the Ship of State .
When efforts are not made to disseminate information t o
adult citizens, the full fruits of social science investigation s
are not reaped. Undergraduates must wait until tomorrow t o
he captains of industry, moguls of politics, shoguns of soci-
ety. They will have forgotten much of what they were taugh t
in college. Pressure of other experiences and contacts wil l
prevent them from being guided by the white light of scien-
tific truth which so brightly illuminated their footstep s
through the halls of learning. Knowledge they gain today i n
social studies will be obsolete when they are in a position to
useit. Professors and alumni recognize that only a minimum
of what is expounded in the class room is really remem-
bered.
The University of Oregon might rest content to teach stu-
dents in the class room. But its administrators have recog-
nized a wider obligation to the people of Oregon. Many activi-
ties designed to carry social science into the service of th e
state immediately have been undertaken. A brief survey o f
these follows:
Schools of Applied Social Science, Education, Law, Jour-
nalism, and Business Administration, and Departments o f
Political Science, Economics, Psychology and Philosophy have
been enlisted through organized machinery to supply informa-
tion and guidance to the citizens of Oregon in the solutio n
of their common difficulties . That is certainly a powerfu l
aspect of the institution mission.
The School of Education has organized for secondary edu-
cators, a Bureau of Educational Research . This provide s
information upon request pertaining to any educationa l
question upon which inquiries are made.
The School of Law, under Professor Wayne L . Morse,
dean, has completed a comprehensive survey of the admini-
stration of criminal justice in Oregon .
The School of Journalism sponsors annual meetings o f
the Oregon State Educational Association in Eugene . Arn e
G. Rae, field secretary of that organization makes his head -
quarters in the School of Journalism . Contact with editor s
and publishers is thus maintained.
The School of Business Administration has carried o n
extensive research activities through a Bureau of Busines s
Research, whose published findings have proved valuable t o
commercial interests
The Extension Division, with a motto enlisting all Ore-
gon inhabitants from "seventeen to seventy," carries on mul-
titudinous curricular enterprises serving the non-residen t
populace
There is a Legislative Reference Bureau established b y
the state assembly on which serve Dr . James D . Barnett,
chairman of the Department of Political Science ; Professo r
Calvin Crumbaker, Department of Economics ; and Dea n
Philip A . Parsons of the School of Applied Social Science .
Dr. James H . Gilbert, dean of the College of Literature ,
Science, and the Arts, is now secretary of the Governor s
Interim Commission on Taxation and Regulation of Publi c
Utilities, two of whose members are appointed by the Gov-
ernor, two by the House of Representatives through its
speaker, and two by the Senate through,its president..
The School of Physical Education, for men and women ,
through Dean John Freeman Bovard, now on leave, and hi s
staff, offers advisory service for all kinds of athletic activi-
ties such as community playgrounds
The School of Music, under Dean John J . Landsbury,
reaches out to the various communities in its particular field.
Speech and Drama Divisions of the English Departmen t
upon request serve the general public in many ways, as d o
many other branches of the institution which at least passivel
endeavor to tie together life of the campus with that of th e
community
Publications of various agencies supply groups with liter-
ature: Oregon Exchanges, published by the School of Jour-
nalism under Professor George Turnbull, editor, is issued t o
representatives of the press . The High School, periodical
published by the School of Education, is edited by Professo r
Nelson L. Bossing, for secondary educators. The Oregon La w
Review, edited by Professor Charles G . Howard, of the La w
School, serves the bench and bar The Commonwealth Review ,
a Journal of Applied Social Science, authorized by th e
Board of Higher Education, . is edited by the School o f
Applied Social Science in collaboration with the Schools o f
Journalism, Business Administration, Education, Physica l
Education, and the Departments of Sociology, Economics an
Political Science.
But by far the bulk of the activities in "Selling Socia l
Science to the State" is conducted under auspices of th e
School of Applied Social Science, a recent consolidation o f
the old Department of Sociology and the Portland School o f
Social Work.
Under Dean Parsons, a. five-year program of communit y
service for the enrichment of community life for social wel-
fare and the conservation of community resources in Orego n
has been carefully worked out. It embodies four major acti-
vities: I, Community Service ; II, Effective Coordination o f
Social Resources; III, The Administration of Local Govern-
ment; IV, The Appreciation, Utilization and Conservation o f
Natural Civic Resources.
This program is to be directed and carried out by th e
School of Applied Social Science in cooperation with other
schools and departments, and with state, county and muni-
cipal agencies, and state and local private welfare and civi c
organization e
plan are reproduced herewith:
I . COMMUNITY SERVICE .
To provide leadership for a vigorous and spontaneou
community organization movement in the state affectingover three hundred communities. Most of these are in
the
open country and in villages of less than four hundred per-
sons

munities. To stimulate an interest in health and recreation,and to encourage creative effort and cooperative enterprise
along cultural and economic lines

demonstrations, exhibits, short courses, using demon-
stration trucks carrying exhibits, art objects, im-
provised stage equipment, moving picture appara-
tus, electrical equipment, etc .
C. Recreation and Physical Edneation .
Experimental demonstrations and instructio n
1. Physical education .
2. Recreation for adults .
3. Community recreation programs .
D. Research .
To carry on research :
1. To interpret the significant results of the experi-
ments.
2. To determine the efficiency of methods employed .
3. To adapt the program to needs as they become ap-
parent.
4. To study communities and help them develop com-
munity programs adapted to local needs and con-
ditions .
E. Coordination of Community Programs .
To collect and disseminate news of the community move-
ment, programs, plans, instructional materials, etc .
Community newspaper.
II . EFFECTIVE COORDINATION OF SOCIAL RESOURCES .
The state of Oregon is probably about as well equippe d
as other American states, and, in some sections it is unusuall y
well equipped with facilities for what is commonly spoke n
of as public or social welfare . It has the customary agencie s
for public health and education, industrial and child wel-
fare commissions, services of the agricultural college, publi c
and private poor relief, family relief, and correction . Wit h
very few exceptions each of these agencies makes its ow n
individual approach to communities, generally with a vie w
to reaching the largest number, and a great many communi-
ties in the open country and the smaller towns are in ignor-
ance of the services to which they are entitled by law, o r
which are made available for them through philanthropi c
or educational organizations .
This plan undertakes to coordinate the activities o f
these agencies and to provide a more effective applicatio n
of them to the individual communities, especially those i n
the smaller town and open country districts by means of :
1. Coordination and improvement of activities in relate d
fields, such as health and welfare, group leadership an d
character building, family relief, child placing an d
adoptions, etc .
2. Setting tip of demonstrations in selected districts .
3. Showing communities the nature and value of healt h
work, etc .
4. Arranging programs to minister to neglected areas .
5. Expand services to meet local needs not provided for a t
present.
6. Place demonstrations at the services of county courts to
show best methods of handling problems of child wel-
fare, relief and correction in rural areas . Also publi c
health nursing where not available now .
7. To organize and educate local committees on health ,
child welfare, etc .
8. To carry on special research in nature and treatment o f
rural problems.
9. To train rural health and social workers on the job .
III . ADMINISTRATION OE LOCAL GOVERNMENT .
To provide research and consultation service to approxi-
mately one hundred towns, most of which are of less tha n
1,000 population, a few from 3,000 to 5,000, and not mor e
than half a dozen of them over 10,000 . All but the large r
ones are affected by the community organization movemen t
outlined above but in addition stand in need of the follow-
ing services :
1. Research in local governmental and fiscal problems .
2. Consultation in problems of municipal or town admini-
stration.
3. A state-wide program of community development wit h
certain uniform features affecting all the towns, suc h
as fire protection, sewerage disposal, law enforcement ,
etc.
4. Local programs adapted to special conditions as in re -
sort, lumber, fishing and mining towns .
5. To develop and train local leaders in public service .
6. To develop interest in and study of local problems an d
of problems which the little towns have in common b y
local groups .
7. To develop in the little towns an understanding of an d
a wider use of facilities for community betterment pro-
vided by public and private agencies .
IV . APPRECIATION, UTILIZATION AND CONSERVATIO N
OF NATURAL CIVIC RESOURCES .
Few states are as abundantly blessed as Oregon wit h
natural resources which make for the enjoyment of life .
Lofty and extensive mountain ranges, wild rugged areas ,
volcanic peaks, vast evergreen forests, innumerable mountai n
lakes and streams, one of the greatest river gorges in th e
world, a great crater lake six thousand feet high, a dee p
water harbor one hundred miles from the sea, vast areas o f
upland desert with geological evidences unexcelled anywhere ,
and three hundred miles of rugged ocean shore as yet almos t
untouched by the hand of man, provide the natural settin g
for a civilization which is yet within the memory of livin g
persons
There are many organizations and individuals intereste d
in one or more aspects of these natural advantages . As ye t
there is no concerted movement for the conservation o f
these resources, the appreciation of their significance fo r
human culture and enjoyment, or the utilization of the m
for social and esthetic purposes . This program proposes t o
attempt the following things :
1. To coordinate the efforts of all - organizations an d
agencies interested in the appreciation, utilization an d
conservation of these resources .

The Campbell Memorial Cour t
W HI
l E the Fine Arts Museum of th eW
University is not yet open for inspec-
tion, it is possible to gain access to the Princ
L. Campbell Memorial Court through the rear
door of the Museum building if one call s
between the hours of five and seven on Sun -
days. Such a visit is well worth while, fo r
the Memorial Court is a place of beauty ,
worthy of thoughtful admiration . To Dea n
Ellis F . Lawrence goes much of the credit ;
for, under his Ieadership, many willin g
workers gave their best to create beauty i n
this memorial
The Court is most effective when see n
first through the wrought iron doors tha t
separate it from the main hall and entranc e
to the Fine Arts Museum. From this entrance
one sees a beautiful reflecting pool, open to the sky, flanke d
by green grass and with a slender Irish yew tree growing i n
each of the four corners . At the far end of the court, on a
raised dais, stands A . Phimister Proctor s bust of Presiden t
Campbell
The setting for the bust is a marble backed niche, wit h
overhead a rich gold toned mosaic dome, which seems to catch
the brightness of the suns rays as they are reflected in th e
pool. On four tall ornamental pedestals are upturned howl s
from which flood lights at night search out the goldprosaic of
the dome
Into the statue of President Campbell, Mr. Proctor has
subtly introduced the strength of character, determination an
energy which marked President Campbell career; yet at th e
same time has the sculptor preserved the kindliness, generosity
and humor which so endeared the President to those who knew
As Seen by an Alumn a
and loved him . Each change of position ,
when one stands near the statue, presents a
different expression on the finely modelle d
face; and one ponders on the moods whic h
the sculptor has so cleverly caught and held
~eTs for posterity .
In front of the bronze bust is an ope n
shell in which plays a small jet of water ,
while on either side of the shell sits a jaunt y
little piping Pan .
In the covered cloister on both sides of th
pool are stone benches which invite the visito
to loiter. Here he may watch the seven oppo-
site columns as their reflection trembles i n
the waters of the pool ; he may glimpse th e
passing clouds as they are pictured there; or
contemplate a darting bird that wings lo w
to catch its own skimming reflection mirrored in the wate r
beneath
Or, on a rainy day he may watch the pool, open to th e
sky, as the raindrops dimple its placid surface and start i n
motion ever widening circles. Thus, open to all the moods o f
Oregon weather, the pool seems to welcome alike sunny skies
or rain ; seems to welcome and to make them a part of itself .
Truly the architects, the artists, have planned wisely an d
built well, for surely any memorial to Prince L . Campbell
should inspire the spirit of beauty and contemplation .
Quiet and meditation and peace seem to pervade th e
Memorial Court. And though there has been no attempt t o
include in this limited picture the details or the full beauty as
worked out by the architects, my purpose will be achieved if it
brings you, some Sunday, to supplement with your own eyes
the few details presented here.

M ANILA, P . I ., October 20 .-It may have been jus tanother ship-arrival for the busy port of Manila whe n
the S. S . President Madison pulled alongside Pier No . 7 o n
the afternoon of Monday, October 12, but for twenty or mor e
persons on the ship and on the dock the occasion was a Uni-
versity of Oregon celebration of real importance .
On board were the three members of the University o f
Oregon Pacific Basin Good-Will Team, arriving in th e
Philippines four-and-a-half months along on their 35,00 0
mile speaking and debating tour of the countries of th e
Pacific. Also on deck were five other students of the Univer-
sity, the members of theOregon Playboys orchestra, which had
been assigned to thePresident Madison for their first Asiati c
voyage after signing a contract with the Dollar Steamshi p
Company. As the ship neared the dock, the Webfoot orchestra
broke into a syncopated version of Oregon, Our Alma Mater .
As the first bars broke loose, there were answering cheers
from the dock, where a little group of Oregon alumni wer e
waiting to greet the debaters . First on board was Genera l
Creed C. Hammond, ex-3r . General Hammond, for man y
years a well-known citizen of Eugene and later a prominen t
Portland banker, was appointed to the position of insula r
auditor for the Philippines by President Hoover two year s
ago. Close behind hint were a half-dozen other alumni o f
younger years, who came to invite us to an Oregon Reunio n
Banquet which they had arranged.
That night there came together at one of Manila s many
good restaurants eight University of Oregon undergraduate s
and four alumni to enjoy an evening of good food, informa l
reminiscing about the Eugene campus and a few short talk s
on the significance of the visit of the Oregon debating team ,
the second to come to Manila for a forensic clash with th e
University of the Philippines in the last four years .
If there has ever been a U . of O . get-together as far fro m
Oregon as the 7,000 miles of Pacific Ocean that separat e
Manila and the Oregon coast, none of those present at thi s
banquet had ever heard of it . The right tone of merrimen t
was given the occasion at the outset by reception of the news
of Oregon 13-0 defeat of Washington in the Seattle stadium.
The alumni who were able to attend the banquet wer e
S. G. Padilla,  instructor in education at the University o f
the Philippines ; General Creed C . Hammond ; Manuel V .
Alcid, 5, now established as an accountant and living a t
677 Mabolo Street, Manila ; and Romulo C . Avila, 7, wh o
is holding down an important executive position with a Philip
pine sugar company as a result of his training at the Orego n
business administration school
The eight undergraduates were the three debaters and th
five members of thePresident Madison's orchestra. The travel-
ling troubadors who make up the Oregon Playboys are: Joe
F. Haslinger, 3, Hood River ; Platt A . Davis, 4, Albany ;
Clifton F . Iverson, 3, Eugene ; Charles W. James, 2, Eu-
gene; and Wallace C . Palmer, 3, Eugene.
So warm-hearted was the spirit of the gathering that even
an ex-Oregon State College man was admitted to the inne r
circle. He was Tranquiliano G. Fajardo, who was an instructor
in botany and plant pathology at Corvallis in 8 and 9 an d
who is now on the staff of the Philippine Government s
Bureau of Science.
Even further from Eugene were the collegiate interests o f
another guest, D . B . Ambrosio, who holds a degree fro m
Columbia University of New York City . He attended th e
Oregon affair as the representative of the Baranguay Society,
which is an organization composed of Filipinos who hol d
degrees from American universities.
Guests of honor were Mrs . Hammond and Carlos P .
Romulo, "the biggest little man in the Philippines ." Romul o
was the coach of the team which won an audience decision ove
the U. of 0 . Round-the-World debating team when it came t
Manila in 1928. As executive head of the three daily news -
papers which compose the "TV T" block ofpublications, h e
has become internationally known as one of the most aggres-
sive and intelligently tolerant leaders in the Philippine inde-
pendence movement
There are about thirty alumni of the University of Orego n
in the Islands today, but the great majority of them ar e
teachers in the provincial schools and were unable to atten d
the banquet s
in letters which were read at the banquet by Mr. Padilla, who
served as toastmaster.
As the first speaker of the evening, Mr . Romulo praised
the record made by the Round-the-World debating team ,
which consisted of Walter E . Hempstead, now instructor i n
the speech division of the Oregon faculty; Benoit McCroskey,
now in business in Los Angeles ; and Avery Thompson, stil l
pursuing an education in the Oregon Law School
He also praised Creed Hammond, who is today one o f
Oregons most distinguished alumni, since the position h e
holds in the insular government is second in importance onl
to the Governor-Generalship
"I want you boys from Oregon to tell Oregon that she ha s
the greatest reasons to be proud of Creed Hammond," he said
"He is an Oregonian who has won the hearts of the Filipin o
people. In his position as insular auditor he has rendered .
a real and effective service . He has done it unostentatiously,
but his work has been of the greatest value to the Philippin e
government and to the Filipino people."
General Hammond was in Omaha when the war was de-
clared in the spring of 1898 . He joined the first Nebrask a
Volunteers and was assigned to service in the Philippines e
told of the storming of Manila by American troops on Augus t
1.3 of that year . The attackers had to cross a long marsh y
plain under the guns of the Spanish fort .. Just before th e
attack began, the Middle-West private who stood next t o
Hammond summarized the situation with a terse, "Goo d
Lord, there ain even enough trees for the officers to ge t
behind !
After the war, General Hammond returned to Eugene and
became chief deputy sheriff under Fred Fisk . Later he wa s
one of the organizers of the Eugene Bank of Commerce .
During the World-War he received the commission of major -
general and served the WarDepartment with distinction fo r
several years after the armistice . Hammond
moved to Portland, where General Hammond took part in the
organization of the American National Bank . In 1929 he
came to Manila.
The night following the Oregon banquet, which received
8

prominent notice in the Manila . papers, the Pacific Basi n
Debate Team evened the count with the University of th e
Philippines by winning the judges  decision in a debate i n
which they took the affirmativeside of the question,Resolved :
That Imperialism is a benefit.
As a prize a silver Ioving cup presented by George C .
Butte, vice-governor of the Philippines, was given to th e
Oregon team. The natural interest of the Filipinos in th e
question of imperialism attracted a capacity crowd to th e
hall, and thousands more listened in to the radio broadcas t
of the debate over KZRM, which was reported heard b y
listeners in Japan, Australia and the Malay States.
Three of the five judges were Filipinos and two wer e
Americans. One of the Americans and two of the Filipino s
were justices of the Supreme Court . The friendliness an d
sportsmanship of the Filipino people was demonstrated i n
the sincere applause of the large audience following th e
announcing of the decision. The three U . P . debaters could
not have been better sports, but they declared their intention
a
of visiting Eugene next year to reclaim the Butte Cup in a
return engagement on Oregon soil
We visited Hongkong and Canton before coming t o
Manila, having speaking engagements and debates in eac h
city. We saw enough evidence of the bitter anti-Japanes e
feeling which has swept over China as a result of the Man-
churian situation to make us a bit apprehensive about ou r
itinerary in northern China and Japan. In Canton we watched
a demonstration parade of 50,000 people, who marched i n
silent protest against Japanese " aggression" in Norther n
China, carrying inflammatory banners urging a complet e
boycott of Japanese goods. In Hongkong the British Govern-
ment had repressed anti-Japanese riots by what amounted to
martial law, after several Japanese merchants and thei r
families had been murdered.
After living ender variations on the Union Jack and othe r
flags for four months, the Stars and Stripes which fly ove r
Manila have given us a peculiar sense of security, but tomor-
row we must sail for Hongkong, Shanghai, Tientsin, Peiping ,
Yokohama, Kobe, Tokyo and way points.

MRS. ELLEN M . PENNELL RETIRE S
O N NOVEMBER 25, Mrs . Ellen M . Pennell retire d
teen years of faithful service . Since the year of the Armis-
tice, Mrs. Pennell has been working in the basement of th e
library in the office of the librarian, Mr . M. H . Douglass.
Mrs. Pennell came to the University from Monmouth i n
1905 as instructor in English and assistant dean of women .
Dr. Luella Clay Carson was then dean of women . Mrs . Pen-
nell knew P. L. Campbell in Monmouth, and when he became
president of the University she also came to the Universit y
and became a member of the faculty on the Oregon campus .
In 1911 she became dean of women as well as instructo r
in English. The next year she began teaching a course i n
art for the girls in the University . There are many forme r
students of the University who best remember her in thi s
teaching position, for she taught this course for about si x
years. Then in 1918 she began her work in the library .
In a fall a few years ago Mrs . Pennell broke her hi p
and since then it has been necessary for a taxi to bring he r
to and from her work each day .

Dark Norse Threatens
By ROBERT K. ALLEN,  2
The present incumbent cognomen fo r
Oregon teams, "Webfoots," saw the firs t
signs of an opposition party forming las t
month when Mrs . David Graham (Mildre d
Bagley, 2) threw the suggestion of "Yel -
lowjackets" into the ring . No sooner ha d
the first copies of OLD OREGON been sen t
out, than another candidate, a dark hors e
entry, entered the contest . This new one i s
"Pioneers" and there are lots of goo d
planks in its platform .
But before we hegin enumerating them ,
let us tell of a . little political maneuverin g
carried on by Roy Craft, ex-0, sports edi-
tor of the Eugene Register-Gauarl . Roy,
being a newspaper man, quickly realize d
that Yellowjackets was an awfully lon g
word to get into a one-column headline ,
especially so if the deadline was close . S o
Roy suggested that Oregon adopt "Pio -
neers" as the formal name and then use
"Yellowjackets" as an informal one . II e
argued that many schools do the same sor t
of thing, citing for example Oregon State .
Their teams go by the name "Beavers "
as well as "Orangemen ."
"Comes in awfully handy, too," Roy said .
"Saves the sports writers a lot of troubl e
in worrying about repeating the sam e
word too often ."
Roy doesn take the credit for sug-
gesting "Pioneers, " though. And if he di d
he would have a lot of people on his neck ,
because there has keen carried on a sort o f
whispering campaign for some time . Wal t
Baker, spurts editor of the Emerald, liked
it and first put the suggestion into print ,
but even Walt doesn dare claim the ori-
ginal idea .
Here are some of the reasons why th e
monicker "Pioneers" is liked : 1-Doc
Spears favors it (likes "Yellowjackets, "
too) . 2 -Oregon is known as the Pionee r
state. 3-The statue, "The Pioneer" Iend s
a suitable touch . So will the statue "Pio -
neer Mother" to be unveiled this spring ,
4-The Old Oregon Trail denotes Pioneer s
and links the name Oregon with the sug-
gested title . 5-The name itself implies de -
termination, foresight, hardiness, strength ,
and progress . G It is pretty well agree d
that Webfoots is a misnomer .
Walt Baker sums it up thus :
"What more could be wanted-ellow-
jacketsfor all the graphic, vivid, brillian t
and vicious determination that goes with th e
colorful performance of collegiate sport s
the country over-and ioneersportray-
ing the more subtle and sturdy atmospher e
of a progressive and determined leader ."
How are you going to vote ?

Our Appreciative Thanks !
IT WAS with a sigh of relief that we learned of the actio nof the State Board of Higher Education in passing th e
alumni budget as allowed by the University. Since last Jul y
this budget has been held up awaiting action . Advers e
action might have meant the abolishment of the Alumn i
Office ; certainly it would have meant a terrific struggl e
for the very existence of the Alumni organization .
So it was with a sincere sense of relief that we learne d
of the Board decision to confirm the budget allowance .
Not that this will make us affluent-far, far from it! Bu t
it will let us know where we stand and will give us at leas t
a fighting chance to keep up the work which has been begun.
Does It Indicate the Trend ?
A N EDITORIAL entitled What Price Athletics? appearedin the last issueof The High School, the December, 1931,
issue s
if it indicates the trend in prep schools . We quote herewith :
"Forty lives sacrificed at the shrine of intercollegiat e
football during the 1931 season-so chronicles the daily press
-besides scores sent to the physical scrap-heap or handi-
capped for life through permanent injuries suffered . Th e
inevitable reaction must come. For the secondary school i t
is here . The most influential of secondary accreditin g
agencies, the North Central Association, reports sixty-eigh t
per cent of its reporting high schools oppose participatio n
in national athletic contests while a majority favor withdrawal
from all tournaments leading to state championships in foot-
ball and baseball. Overwhelming sentiment is registered i n
favor of greater attention to intramural sports with thumb s
down on athletics receiving more attention than debate, dra-
matics, concerts and similar non-athletic activities"
Continuing Educatio n
T HE ARTICLE by Daniel L . Grant on Intellectual Lif eof Alumni in the January, 1931,Yournal of Higher Edit -
cation is well worth the serious consideration of alumn i
readers . Grant is interested in the question of whethe r
education after graduation from college is becoming a func-
tion of institutions of higher education . He is interested ,
furthermore, in what he calls the almost hopeless tangle into
which American education has drifted through the confusion
in undergraduate work between training courses and essen-
tially educative experience. "The bulk of higher educationa l
experience has shifted over in the direction of trainin g
courses, and away from educative experience, in response t o
America scientific era," he says. "Already we award almos t
seven first professional degrees for every three degrees o f
the basic arts and pure sciences They have seriously
confused the picture of educating oneself before gettin g
so seriously concerned with training oneself . If, there -
fore, we approach the educational problem with a new time -
pattern, we can begin to disentangle the medley which ha s
been set up in undergraduate days through a more rigi d
division between educative courses and training courses."
We are inclined to agree with Mr . Grant, too, that ther e
is no magic in the four-year curriculum and that : "W e
need an all-inclusive conception of educational endeavor into
which the undergraduate experience can fit along beside th e
continuing non-resident intellectual ,experience of matur e
years."
With a Broad Smil e
FRANKLY, even the Advertising Manager of OLn OREGON,whose optimism must needs know no hounds, was a bi t
astounded by the results of a very small notice in the Novem-
ber OLD OREGON concerning a sale of Oregon Song Book s
by the University Co-op. And as for the editorial staff, the y
had that warm, cheery feeling in the innards that usuall y
comes only from some stimulating cause.
Well it was stimulating, for that matter, the number o f
returns received from alumni all over the United States .
Even the Co-op had no notion of causing a landslide whe n
they announced Oregon Song Books at half price. But that s
just about what happened . Orders came from alumni i n
eleven different states ! From Massachusetts to Texas, fro m
New York to California, with stops at way points in Minne-
sota, Illinois, Indiana . Utah, and Idaho !
We didn know that there were so many pianos lef t
in the U. S., to say nothing of so many alumni whose voice s
were still untracked after their arduous duties of earnin g
the daily bread plus OLD OREGON once a month!
But here to them! Long may they sing !
Have You Voted ?
N THE December OLD OREGON was published the ballot for
I vice-presidents of the Alumni Association . Few of thes e
ballots have been returned i
disapprove of placing the ballot in OLD OREGON? It wa s
done in order to save postage and printing. To send a lette r
first class to all the alumni and former students on our pai d
and non-paid lists would cost $180 for postage alone . Ad d
to that the cost of printing the ballot, stuffing the envelopes ,
sealing, and stamping, and you have a considerable item e
felt sure that paid alumni would be willing to cooperat e
with us to effect a saving . If you have not clipped you r
ballot from the December OLD OREGON, please do so at once,
and mail it now as the votes will be counted on December 31.

Facts concerning the owner
ship of Buicks by graduates of
15 leading universities were
compiled by The Graduat e
Group of alumni magazines
and by the alumniassociatio n
of theuniversities.
UNIVERSITY graduates, who buy many, many thousands of moto r
cars priced above $1,000, choose Buick with significant regularity. I n
fact, they buy nearly twice as many Buicks as the second car in Buicks
price range . Furthermore, this preference for Buick is held by th e
oldest alumni and by the youngest- a fact established in an impartia l
surveyamong the graduates of fifteen leading universities, includin g
your own . Buick considers this one of the finest compliments eve r
paid its cars.
Now, since the introduction of the New Buick Eight, an even greate r
number of university men are concentrating their buying on this on e
car. Buick new Wizard Control, combining the Automatic Clutch ,
Free Wheeling and Silent-Second Syncro-Mesh Transmission, appeals
to them as a notable contribution to driving ease and pleasure . Th e
Buick high-compression Valve-in-Head Straight Eight engine provides
new degrees of speed, snap and smoothness in performance . An d
Buick 26 models, priced from $935 to $2055, f. o. b. Flint, Michigan,
include one or more body types to suit almost every personal or family
need. University men have been quick to recognize and accept thi s
new Straight Eight as the outstanding Buick of all time .

Selling Social Science to the Stat
(Continued from Page 5 )
2. To make available and understandable to the many th
elemental geological and scientific facts regarding th
region.
3. To promote movements looking to the preservationf
certain important areas for use and enjoyment.
4. To provide a state-wide plan for public forests, state
community and municipal parks, recreation centers ancamping grounds, ctc.,
linking up the plans of the fed-
eral government, the state highway commission, privat
donors and municipalities
5. To encourage the dedication of scenic areas to publi
use by gifts, sale, or tradefor areas of equal industrial
value but located in districts of lesser scenic importance
6. To carry on a program of education designed to creat
a greater interest in these resources on the part of th
people of the state
7. To carry on research and to publish valuable materia
bearing on the cultural significance of these -resource
for Oregon and the nation
Funds for the execution of these endeavors are at a lo w
ebb, but aid is being sought from rich Eastern foundations .
To integrate this program still further, the University ha s
adequate personal machinery,--a State Survey Committee o f
the Faculty. It is composed of the following actively inter-
ested members: Dr . Philip A . Parsons, Social Science ; Dr .
A. R . Moore, Physiology ; Dr . James D . Barnett, Politica l
Science; Dean H . D . Sheldon, Education ; Dean James H .
Gilbert, Liberal Arts College ; Dr, Waldo Schumacher, Poli-
tical Science ; Dr . Calvin Crumbaker, Economics ; Dean J.
F . Bovard, Physical Education ; Dean Eric W . Allen, Jour-
nalism; Dr . Warren D . Smith, Geology ; Dean John J .
Landsbury, Music; Dean Ellis F . Lawrence, Architecture and
Allied Arts ; Dr . John H . Mueller, Sociology ; Dean Wayn e
L. Morse, Law ; Dean Richard B . Dillehunt, Medicine ; Pro-
fessor O. F . Stafford, Chemistry; and Dean David E. Faville,
Business Administration.
These "master sellers" have been chosen because of demon-
strated practical capacity in applied aspects of their par-
ticular projects . They have immediate and complete acces s
to facilities such as the Research Council, are in close con -
tact and harmony with their specialized colleagues.
The one unifying principle of the scheme of "Sellin g
Social Science to the State," is the integrating of our facili-
ties of social science research so as to make them more read-
ily available to the citizenry .
More planning in our social order is necessary. Dr . Gilbert
expressed the idea when he remarked : "It has been clearly
revealed in the recent economic depression that the lack o f
unified purpose and failure to use specialized social scienc e
information is costing the American people a heavy price .
Although much can be done through the Federal Govern-
ment, most of the work must needs be carried on within th e
several states, with the Federal Government acting as co -
ordinator."
The University should complete and perfect the organiza-
tion of its machinery to disseminate its vital information an d
to furnish scholarly guidance . Our people may rightly de-
mand an extension of this service of their state universit y
which indeed was characterized by President Arnold Bennett
Hall as the "great mountain peak of leadership" whose melt-
ing snows enrich the plains and valleys of the state roun d
about. The emergencies of the times justify aggressive ser-
vice on the part of the physicians of society, the professor s
of social science. Public opinion thus moulded and crystal-
lized will serve to quicken the tempo of democratic lif e
throughout the Commonwealth.
