    LABOR AND LEHERS
NOI INIMICAL SAYS
PROFESSOR ZUEBLIN
EDUCATION AND LIFE SUBJECT
OF ASSEMBLY SPEAKER’S
LECTURE
SPEAKER AGAINST DRINKING IN GOLLEGE
Science, Art, Habit, and Murals, Have
a Place in Complete Education—
Sectarianism Bad.
Speaking on the subject of “Edu
cation and Life” yesterday in Villard
Hall, Professor Charles Zueblin, edi
tor of the Twentieth Century Maga
zine, dwelt at length on the absurdity
of any animosity existing between two
institutions of higher learning.
“There is,” he said, “absolutely no
reason for any such antagonism in
this state. The public has yet to
learn that there is no natural conflict
between letters and labor.”
College Town Should Be Dry.
While speaking on habit as a
weighty factor in education, Mr. Zueb
lin took occasion to strike a blow
against the proposed local option
measure for Eugene. “It is not be
cause college men are unable to dis
tinguish between the right and wrong
of the thing,” he said, “but that the
possible forming of a habit of this
kind is one of the worst obstacles to
the cause of higher education.”
In the treatment of his subject, the
lecturer brought out the point that
education must be regarded merely as
a preparation for life and its proper
use. In acquiring this education, the
main things to be considered, he said,
are science, art, habit, and morals.
Sectarianism a Drawback.
Science, Mr. Zueblin stated, is not
a matter of chemistry, biology, and
kindred subjects, but consists of obtain
ing a true outlook on life itself. “Art,”
he continued, “is not only a study of
the great masters, but in its larger
sense includes the development of a
thorough appreciation of the beauti
ful.”
Sectarianism, Mr. Zueblin held, is
one of the greatest drawbacks to
teaching along moral lines. “The uni
versal character of the divinity,” he
concluded, “should render such doc
trinal divisions too petty to be con
sidered.”
OREGON CLUB CONSIDERS

A special meeting of the Oregon
Club was held this afternoon in Dr.

branches of sport in the University.

W. S. G. GAME REAL
JEST OF GRADUATE
COACH EFFICIENCY
NORTHERN LINEUP CONTAINS
MANY REPUTED
STARS
OREGON LINE IS BADLY CRIPPLED
Pullman Has Advantage in Kicking
Department—Cornell Remains
on Sidelines.
The football situation at Oregon
has improved slightly in the last
week, and with the last scrimmage
over, Coach Pinkham will be satisfied
with light signal practice until the
big game Saturday.
This game has aroused interest over
the entire Northwest, because it will
be a fair test of Oregon’s Graduate
Coaching System, and of the ability
of Coach Bender, of Pullman, this be
ing his first year there.
The State College will have several
stars in its line up, including
Shortie Harter, all Northwest center.
Harter is but six feet five inches tall
and weighs 200 pounds. He was the
star in last Saturday’s Idaho-Pullman
game. Rock, quarter, and Tyrer, end,
are two ex-Broadway High players
of Seattle, whom Coach Bender has
touted to be of all Northwest calibre.
Keinholti' will do the kicking for Pull
man, and with Fenton out of the
game, the Aggies should have an ad
vantage in this department of the
game.
The Oregon line up is still unde
cided . Fenton, Heusner, and Hall,
are still on the hospital list, and
Jones, Garret, and Holden are barred
by the Faculty. The probable line up
will be: Center, Caufield; guards,
Farris and McClelland; tackles, Bai
ley and Grout; ends, Bradshaw and
Anunsen; quarter, Captain Walker;
halves, Parsons and Briedwell; full,
Cook.
The Pullman line up will be: Oeh
ter, Harter; guards, Love and Goff;
tackles, Suver and Applequist; ends,
Tyler and Diet/; quarter, Rock;
halves, Keinholz and Cooke; full, Fos
ter or Wexter.
Co-eds Fail to Start Another Dance.
The dance which was- to have been
given by the College Women’s Equal
Suffrage League, Saturday, October
26, has been indefinitely postponed.
Local members of the League give
scarsity of enthusiastic Suffrag^Work
ers as the cause of the failure of
the “hop” to materialize. At present
there are but seven of former League
members in college.

NEW REGULATIONS MAY
AID STUDENT READING
In order to encourage outside read
ing, the period for keeping books out of
the Library has been extended to one
month, at the end of which time the
book may be renewed.
The new Library regulations also
include a restriction on the length
of time that a book may be kept out
for thesis work to one month, and
also prohibits the professors from
keeping books out indefinitely. All
b-soks are subject to recall at any
time, no matter who has them out.
In speaking of the change, Mr.
Douglass said, “This new ruling
practically transfers the burden of
looking after the books from the stu
dent to the Librarian. Therefore we
expect a greater number of students
will take up outside reading.”

U. OF W. STUDENTS
CHAMPION FREEDOM
OF COLLEGE PRESS
INSCRIPTION ON NEW CHIMES
STARTS PETITION AMONG
COLLEGIANS
DAILY FORBIDDEN TO PUBLISH DOCUMENT
Editors, However, Have Printing Done
in Down Town Shop and Defy
Faculty.
SEATTLE, Wash., Oct. 23—Be
cause a petition demanding of the
regents of the University of Wash
ington that they refuse to accept a
set of chimes, the gift of Alden J.
Blethen, owner of the Seattle Times,
was to appear in the University of
Washington Daily last night, Secre
tary Stevens, representing President
Kane, of the university, ordered the
presses stopped and publication of the
petition withheld. The chimes, built
at a cost of $12,000, were offered to
the university last spring, and the
tender of Blethen was accepted by
the regents. Work on the building of
a campanile to house the chimes was
begun at the close of college last
spring, and the chimes, which arrived
a week ago, were formally installed
Saturday night.
Students Fear Consequences
Saturday afternoon a group of stu
dents, who opposed the acceptance of
the chimes from Blethen, alleging
that “the university will no longer be
free to combat the sinister influences
that pervade American society when
it accept donations from and erects
monuments to men who typify these
same anti-social influences,” started
the circulation of a petition to secure
the erasure of a laudatory inscription
on the chimes and the reimbursement
of Blethen. This petition, signed by
60 students of the university, was set
up and was to appear in Monday
night’s edition of the Daily.
Kuse Is Worked by Daily
Refusing to refrain from publish
ing the petition, the manager and edi
tor, both students, took the locked
forms down town, where the regular
edition was run off. Now the Univer
sity of Washington may have a dam
age suit on its hands. The manager
of the paper has withheld $700, due on
salaries to employes, pending the out
come of the difficulty.
At a meeting of the Oval Club,
the Washington society of upperclass
men, it was decided to back the Daily
in its endeavor to print the news re
gardless of consequences.
