Barbour, ’12 Asst. Mgr. John (i. Kelly, Jr. Circulation Clay Watson, ’15 Saturday, March 9, 1912. New Management. The management of the Emerald changes with this issue. Mr. Rob erts, owing to a heavy schedule, has resigned and Wendell Barbour has been elected by the executive commit tee to fill the vacancy, with the un derstanding that he and the editor are to divide all the profits the Emerald may be made to realize. The Emerald, as near as can be ascertained, is actually $200 in debt, and the salaries for the first semester have not yet been made. Whether or not this debt can be liquidated in the short time remaining, remains to be seen. Mr. Barbour has had much experience in managing, having had charge, one time or another, of nearly every enterprise in the Eugene High School, when a “preper,” as well as managing last year’s Oregana, the track team and junior week-end in the University; he takes hold of the work with a determination to make good, and if the Emerald does not stand on its own feet at the end of the year, it will be because it cannot do so with out the financial support of the stud ent body. Plans will be formulated immed iately for increasing the efficiency of the advertising department; the mer chants and business establishments will be appealed to for support in proportion to the student patronage they receive, and the editor and man ager will cooperate in an effort to make the paper the real advertising medium it should be. Mr. Barbour has chosen ns his as sistant, John Kelly, who worked un der Barbour on last year’s Oregana, and made a new record for securing advertising. With these two veterans ahold of the financial wheel of the Emerald, we hope to see the craft steered safely into port with all her sails flying. A glimpse of Oregon’s record in the State Oratorical Contest for the past six years will answer satisfac torily, we think, the criticism direct ed at the University that we empha size physical and social development, to the detriment of the more worthy and less attractive mental develop ment. Oregon has not fallen below second place in this league for six years, and three of the years she has won first place. All three second places were unusually close to first place. This record might also give some estimate of the quality of academic work being done at the University, as compared with other Oregon in stitutions. and of the comparative mental development of the students found in Oregon institutions esti mates in which the University would hold first place. Mrs. O. J. (leisler, who was a pa troness at the Delta Sigma dance last night, returned to Portland this after noon. The baby class at Washington vot ed to raise a sum of $200 to send their eight against the freshmen of the University of California, provided the later institution would send their first year crew north later in the year to row on lake Washington. <*:.**** THE SAGE of podunk * si * * < * if * * * J* Most every newspaper man is sure of a “rightup” when he dies, but he’s not sure it will take him to heaven. * * A little kiss just now and then Is relished by the best maiden. * * In the spring the young man’s fancy Lightly turns to thoughts of love.

PLANS GIVEN OUT FOR OIIEGON-STANFORD DERATE The debate between Oregon and Stanford will be held on March 29, in the First Presbyterian Church.

To secure a greater attendance, the price of admission has been reduced to twenty-five cents and efforts are being made to secure the interest of the Alumni in behaK of this activ ity. KING IS ALIVE, SAYS JOE LONG LIVE KING—FAR AWAY Joe Rothchild’s brindle bulldog, King, who was reported killed re cently, has been found not dead, but sleeping. For the past week King has been serving out an indeterminate sentence in the city bastile as a re sult of his fondness for underdone beefsteak. While out with a survey ing party, he misused a family milch cow to such an extent that she was killed and King was arrested for dis orderly conduct. Joe was in Portland and as a result of the long distance negotiations, the cow owners was paid seventy-five dol lars and King given his freedom. His reputation being estabilished in Eugene, however, he was shipped to j Portland, where he will look out for j burglars in a Front street ware house. The Juniors of the Tri Delta House entertained Saturday afternoon with a miscellaneous show for Miss Emma Job, ex-in, who will be married the 20th of March to Chas. Adams of Cot tage prove. DR. C. B.
