1914 OREGANA Wl f 10 PRESS THURSDAY When Feature Section is Worked Up, All Departments of Book Will be Completed. Actual printing on the 1914 Oregana began last Thursday morning at Yo ran’s printing house. This means that there remains one month, almost to a day, in which to finish the printing of the book, as the contracts call for the first deliveries early in May. The first work to be done on the book is the printing of the borders, for each page, which will be a trifle larger than last year’s book. The border is also larger and quite dis tinctive in its execution. The actual space on each page for the printing will be smaller than that available last year. “We are making all possible ef forts to have the Oregana out on time,” said Editor Don Rice this morn ing. “All the pictures and half tones are in the hands of the engravers and the work of printing is going forward at the rate of thirty pages a day.” Every department of the book has been worked up except the feature section, and this will be finished by Spring vacation. This department is in charge of Miss Flora Dunham and Wallace Benson, and promises to be exceptionally good.

WILLAMETTE “U” GETS CHECK FROM J. J. HILL FOR $50,000 A check from James J. Hill, the railroad magnate, Saturday, for $50,000 completed the $300,000 endow ment fund for Willamette University. Besides this amount they have about $200,000 more in subscription notes and other securities. From these it is figured the University will receive at least $20,000 annually. In 1910, Mr. Hill, after visiting the Salem institution, announced that if by January 13, 1913, the authorities would raise $250,000, he would add his check for $50,000. President Homan immediately started a money campaign. In the given time he was successful and the coming of the big check, Saturday, closed this part of the campaign. In the last three years there have been secured for the institution $425, 000 for endowment sand building pur poses.

According to an incomplete report by the manager, Ernest Lamb, before a meeting of the Senior class yester day, the Senior play, produced at the Eugene Theatre Saturday night, cost the class very close to $11.80. This deficit, which has already been paid out of the class treasury, was due to a rather poor house and fairly large expenses. The gross receipts from the seat sale were $360.00. They have been this low once or twice, in former years, though the Senior play has drawn over $400 and $500 at times. The principal items of expense for this production were $105 for theatre rental; $150 for the salary of the coach, William Bernard; and $54 paid to Mr. Bernard for the play royalty and incidentals. The request has been made by the Fortnightly Club of Eugene that the play be repeated. Manager Lamb was authorized by the class last night to repeat it, providing the request is accompanied by a guarantee sufficient to make it worth while. A $200 guar antee has been suggested.
