PORTUGESE PROF. BALKS
AT USE OF ENGLISH
President Campbell is in receipt of
a letter from Barcelona, Portugal,
asking for copies of the University
catalogue. It is interesting to note
a foreigner’s conception of the correct
use of the English language.
Barcelona, 18 September, 1911.
Hon.
President of the University of Ore
gon, Eugene (Oregon).
Sir:
Wishing to enrich our “American

Con tributions by Gifted Writers Will
Make Year’s First Issue Great
Success.
The first issue of the Oregon
Monthly will be out Saturday. This
issue has been devoted principally to
Commencement and Alumni news,
one of the features is to be Mrs. Ellen
Condon McCornack’s article on Ore
gon’s first commencement, when she
with two others graduated.
Hal Bean has written an interesting
account of Friday Harbor—the spirit
of the life and the essence of what the
students accomplished there. A cut of
the place has been inserted as a front
ispiece.
A “breezy” account about Summer
School will also appear. The author
ship, however, is unknown. The sta
tistical articles concerning what each
class has left to the University, to
gether with the alumnae notes, will
be of great interest.
Professor Dunn has also contributed
to this issue of the Monthly. His con
tribution came in the form of a class
ical and polished poem.
An anonymous writer sent in a good
German poem. Among the stories is
one by Esther Grisson, which deserves
special commendation. It is alive
with local color and is a clever por
trayal of humanity in general. Earl
Stannard has written a satire on “The
Modern Method of Teaching Poetry,”
which shows good literary ability.
Dean Collins has contributed another
of his humorous “Martin Miggs” stor
ies.
Every article is of interest, and the
first issue of the Oregon Monthly
promises to be a success.
INITIAL STUDENT BODY
DANCE DECIDED SUCCESS
Graduate Manager Geary reports
the first informal student body dance,
held last Saturday night in the men’s
gym a success in every way. In spite
of the fact that the football men
were not allowed to attend, more than
one hundred and twenty couples as
sembled on the floor. The following
statement is an itemfzed financial ac
count made:
Total receipts .$61.50
Expenditures—
Music (five-piece orchestra).. 20.00
Autos (for patronesses). 3.00
Programs (Coe’s stationery
store) . 2.00
Programs (Yoran’s printing
house) . 3.75
Punch (Eugene Ice & Stor
age Co.) . 8.00
Berry’s, services and table
cloth . 1.75
Total" expenditures .$38.50
Balance over expenditures. 23.00
$61.50
At present the Student Body is
planning to give at least three In
formals during the course of the
school year. The success of the last
dance, however, has so pleased Mr.
Geary that he strongly urges that
this number be extended, if possible.
I.AUREANS PLAN SERIES OF
ADDRESSES BY EX-MEMBERS
At the weekly meeting of the
Laurean Society, Saturday evening,
plans were laid for series of speeches
by prominent ex-Laureans, both
alumni and under-grads, on subjects,
with which they are intimately con
nected. Chairman Haugen expects to
have two or three speakers at each
meeting, in addition to the regular
program.
The debate, “Resolved, that Senior
Students should not be required to
take examinations,” was warmly con
tested. Crockett and Jones winning
from Herder and Davis by a two-to
one decision.
The question for next Saturday
will be the preferential rate of tolls
on American shipping passing through
the Panama canal.
The Laurean Society now consists
of thirty-two active and about twelve
associate members.
