UNIVERSITY IS SUBJECT
OF OREGONIAN ARTICLE
Rig Daily's Correspondent Writes of
the University as a Valuable
State Asset.
Appearing in the Sunday Oregon
ian for March 10, was an article by
Addison Bennett, special correspond
ent to the Oregonian, on the subject
of “The University of Oregon.”
This is the first of two articles, the
second of which will appear next
Sunday. It will deal with the early
history and growth of the institution,
as well as with the character of the
departments and their work. A com
parison of Oregon’s expenses with
those of similar schools and a de
scription of college life, customs, and
organizations, will also be given.
Concerning the early history of
Oregon, little is said. The story of
“Lish” Applegate and his $15,000 sub
scription that turned the tide of for
tune toward Eugene, and not Mon
mouth, as the location of the Univer
sity, is retold. How this town char
acter, nearly penniless, “subscribed”
the required amount to satisfy the
legislative demand for a subscription
of $50,000. after the committee had
collected commodities to the amount
of $35,000 in the shape of horses,
lumber, and days of labor.
Much of the article is taken up with
a statement regarding the needs of
the University. Mr. Bennett ex
plains that our college is not a high
or “prep” school. That our “assets”
are at the mercy of laws, and he
dwells upon the efficient work done
by the different departments, espe
cially the correspondence and sum
mer schools.
After mentioning these facts, and
noting the character of the people to
whom the aforementioned schools
cater, the industrial and working
class, he speaks of Eugene as an “or
derly city,” and its appropriateness
of its selection for a college town,
also of the loyalty of Portland to the
Varsity. Although Mr. Bennett does
not treat these subjects in the order
given here, yet they proceed the main
point that he makes, which is the
lack of information which the voters
have concerning the needs, the work,
and the relative cost of this institu
tion and other state universities.
Finally, in confirming his conten
tion that the voter should, before
hastily injuring referendum petitions,
determine the cost of maintainence of
this and other universities, he quotes
figures that show the cost per capita
of maintainence is at least $75 lower
than in other states where separate
liberal art and agricultural schools
exist.
The future of the University, its
society and manner of living, will be
treated in next Sunday’s Oregonian.
Washington Tennis Notes.
With the opening of the tennis sea
son not far distant, tennis men at the
University of Washington are begin
ning to plan for the season’s work.
One first class double asphalt court
will be built as soon as the exact loca
tion of the new athletic field is deter
mined. One of the four dirt courts
now used will also be put in
shape.
George Febiger is the only member
of last year’s team now in college,
but Redman, and Talbot, who repre
sented Washington in previous years,
have also returned, while the fresh
man class contains some very prom
ising material. Beside the tourna
ment with Oregon, meets will prob
ably be arranged with the Seattle and
Tacoma clubs, University of Puget
Sound, and probably Broadway High
School.

SPRING TRACK WORK
IS WELL UNDER WAY
Several Point winners must bo De
veloped to Take Place of Miss
ing Men.
Preliminary track work is progress
ing nicely, a number of men are out
each afternoon conditioning them
selves either at lacrosse or by in
dulging in light track work. As soon
as the basketball season is over,
Trainer Hayward will devote his en
tire time to the track men.
Although prospects for a strong
team are bright this year, a number
of places will have to be filled. In
the jumps Oregon is extremely weak,
and Kay, last year’s sprinter, will not
turn our for track this season. Mc
Connell, the premier half miler of the
Northwest, is not in school this year.
McDaniels and Elliott will be missed
on the relay team. There are a num
ber of candidates for each of these
positions, but they are practically all
inexperienced men and it will be dif
ficult to develope them into point
winners in one season.
A grammar school and high school
meet will be held in connection with
the indoor meet April 3. The prelim
inaries of the grammar school meet
will be held on Saturday, March 30.
The High School will compete against
the Freshmen in several events.

me to state that I had nothing what
ever to do with the article in the cur

The University of Washington Ped
agogues have taken well to the idea
of a baseball game with the Pullman
faculty this spring, and feel confident
that they can trim the “major league
nine of farmer-teaching tutors.” The
Washington faculty team has a record
of two straight annual victories
against the alumni balltossers, and
this year is out strong for the faculty
championship of the state.

Plans have been made at Yale to

be high enough for an ordinary fly
