BIG MEN AT OREGON
Since the beginning of its history,
the University of Oregon has pro
duced a distinct type of men; big
men; men who have made Oregon
Spirit famous throughout the land.
Are we, men of the present genera
tion, doing our share to maintain and
preserve this standard? Is it true,
that Oregon is not producing, as of
old, those of whom it may proudly
be said, “lie is a big man here at
Oregon?”
Or can it be that we are merely in
a lethargy, that we have lost inter
est in the various lines of college ac
tivity.
Where are the men like Bernard
Jakway, Homer Angell, and Jack La
tourotte, football players and inter
state debaters; Henry McKinney,
football player, editor of Hie Weekly
and Varsity orator; Ben Williams,
crack athlete and orator; Earl Kil
patrick and “Skipper" Nicholas, edi
tors and debaters? Wo might men
tion a score more of Oregon men who
were big enough and versatile enough
to engage in more than one line of
activity.
mil the number who center their
attention upon one activity alone
sinks into insignificance when com
pared to the number who are doing
absolutely nothing at all for the sake
of their institution. A glance over

FRATERNITY POLITICS COSTS
VICTOR ZEDNICIv HIS JOB
Victor L. Zednick, graduate man
ager of athletics at the University of
Washington since 11)09, has announced
that he will not be a candidate for re
election. His term of office expires
this year.
Fraternity politics are given as the
cause of his action. At present there
are five aspirants for the office, all be
longing to different fraternities, some
graduates and some not. The elec
tion was recently postponed on ac
count of being unable to agree on a
man, and in the meantime the situa
tion was so framed up that Zednick
was forced to acknowledge his de
feat.

PROF. DUNN LECTURES
ON OLD ROMAN FORUM
1 Address Is Informally given—Ruins
Hard to Photograph, Plaint
of Speaker.
Professor F. S. Dunn continued his
I series of lectures on art with an il
lustrated talk on the “Roman Forum,”
this afternoon. The lecture was of a
more informal nature than those pre
ceding it in the series. It took the
form of a personally conducted tour
with Professor Dunn as the guide,
and with the pictures illustrating
every new point of interest a real pic
ture of the old Roman Forum was
presented to the audience.
The “tour” began at the Coliseum
and Professor Dunn took his listeners
from there through the whole maze of
ruins, describing them and giving his
little interesting sidelight on their
history. The whole talk was given
over to the Forum alone, and a com
plete round was made of its attrac
tions. Many of the old ruins have
been reconstructed, so as to appear
in their former shapes. Where the
buildings have been rebuilt, pictures
were shown of them in both their
new and ruined aspect.
In explaining his lecture Profes
sor Dunn pointed out the difficulty of
presenting a clear picture of the
Forum as it was in Roman times.
“The maze of ruins,” he said, “pre
sents difficulties when taking photo
graphs, and although the reconstruct
ed buildings help in clearing up the
situation yet it is hard to give an
accurate portrayal of the Forum.”
Following today’s lecture the re
maining numbers of the series will
be given on Tuesday afternoon instead
of Thursday afternoon, as was the
case before the holidays.
NEWS STUDENTS^WILL
EDIT PAPER AS EXAM
Morning' Register for February 2,
Will be “Hlue Book”—Amateurs
to Have Entire Charge.
As the final examination for the
three classes in journalism Professor
Allen has aria lged to have the en
'ire editing an 1 publication of the
Morning P-gi-ter c" Sunday, Febru
ary 2, done by his students, the first
year class acting as reporters, while
the second and third year classes will
comprise the editorial staff.
This is the first time that the prac-j
tical work of the journalists has been
carried to the extent of having com-j
plete charge of one of the State’s
largest morning papers. The staff as
picked from the two first classes by
Professor Allen, will be announced in
a day or so. As soon as the appoint
ments are made, the department edi
tors will commence immediately upon
the work.
The students will gather the news,
edit it. decide the editorial policy of
the paper for that issue, write all
heads, and dispose of the telegraphic
matter. The regular management,
however, will look after the business
end of the paper.
As a preliminary preparation for
the task the two advance classes are
studying the style, departments, and
heads of a former Sunday edition.
