PROF. MEN NTS STATE NEWSPAPERS “Klamath Falls Northwestern Has Best Plant for its Size in the World,” He Says. Professor E. W. Allen has for the past week been visiting newspaper offices in Oregon. The editors were all in sympathy with the work being done in the University in connection with Journalism. All expressed them selves as willing to do anything to help in the course. In Klamath Falls, Professor Allen said, that he visited the most wonder ful small newspaper plant in the world, “The Klamath Falls North western,” owned and edited by Ram Evans. “Everything in the office is new, the building was designed by experts, who fitted it with every convenience. Mr. Evans has the latest of all labor sav ing devices. Why he even has a dic tograph. All he has to do is to press a button by his desk and he can hear what people are saying all over the shop, as well as talk to them.” “One would never recognize it as a newspaper office,” said Professor Allen, “everything is furnished with the best, the paper even boasts of a library.” In Grants Pass, Professor Allen looked over a defunct newspaper, with the idea of bringing it to the Univer sity. In time to come, Professor Al len hopes to have a newspaper plant, installed, so that the students will be J enabled to meet the practical side of the business. Professor Allen vfsited the Rose burg Nows, whose editor, Mr. Shoe maker, is an old classmate of the t author of the text books used in the Journalism classes, Medford and Ashland were also vis ited.

By this order the public will be excluded from the campus and the mothers, sisters and sweethearts of the expectant juniors will not be allowed in any of the col lege buildings, as formerly.

During the time required to till his position, a committee will act in his capacity.

High Grades—Few Flunks. On the other hand the average run f grades at the University during the whole semester was high. Al though there were no straight "11" canls, the number of students in the honor clas- is unusually large. The number of those who failed. was but eight, which is hut half the number of last year.
