A PROVEN SUCCESS
The Executive Council and the Ath
letic Council in joint session yester
day re-elected Arthur M. Geary Grad
uate Manager. Mr. Geary has al
ready served two years in this capac
ity, during which time student affairs
have been placed on a more solid
basis than ever before. The outlook
would seem to indicate that during his
next year of service he will have en
tirely removed the Student Body debt.
In fact, great progress has already
been made toward this end, in spite
of the fact that the manager has had
to deal with schedules in the arrang
ing of which he had no voice. From
now on he will begin to reap the re
sults of his work, for the contracts
now in existence are of his own mak
ing.
Examination of the various activi
ties show that from one to three hun
dred dollars has been saved in every
line of student endeavor except Ora
tory and Debate. The graduate man
ager system has been given a fair
trial and results show that the Stu
dent Body was amply justified in
adopting it. It is also wisdom on the
parts of the Executive and Athletic
Councils that they have retained the
man who has proved himself capable
of removing conditions from a chaotic
and critical situation to a position of
safety and stability.
THE EMERALD BANQUET
Somewhere back in dim history
when the students of the University
first began to publish a newspaper,
the custom arose of having, towards
the end of each year, at least upon
all years when the manager’s balance
sheet could be made to warrant it,—
a staff banquet. This year the man
ager of the Emerald is going to turn
over to the Student Body a balance
such as was never before heard of.
And besides that he is arranging to
put on a banquet which will have as
much the edge on previous banquets
as the Emerald has had on the papers
of yester-years. This banquet will be
given at the Osburn, Friday, June 0,
just before examinations, and the day
before the last issue of the Emerald
for this year.
And in solemn conclave the editor
and the manager have decided that
there will be only one way to be invit
ed to this banquet, namely to stay on
the job regularly and faithfully until
the end of the year. With Spring
days luring one to the mill race and
with exams fast approaching, the
temptations to cut an assignment are
hard to overcome. But the Emerald
has to come out just the same. The
staff has fast dwindled of late, and with
the manager arguing that everyone
who quits is two dollars more to turn
into the Student Body, it bids fair to
dwindle more. The editor, however,
wants to see more than a faithful
dozen qualify for the banquet.
We are on the last lap now. Let’s
all be in at the finish.
Y. M. C. A.—Picnic up the mill
race, leaving the Shack at 4 p. m.,

FIVE ACTIONS
ARE STARTED
(Continued from first page.)
Campbell at the Sigma Delta Chi ban
quet Saturday night.
A banquet attended by 300 visitors
from all walks in life and from all
parts of Oregon concluded the general
session of the fifth annual University
Commonwealth program at noon Sat
urday. The dinner was held imme
diately after the arrival of a delega
tion from Portland, which arrived on
the Oregon Electric on a special train
of five cars. The guests were carried
through the city in a parade of 50
automobiles and brought to Villard
Hall to hear the close of the educa
tional session. A rousing speech by
Colonel Hofer, representing the dele
gation, closed the morning session.
State Owes Much to Eugene.
The citizens of Eugene have led a
fight for the University for years,”
declared C. C. Chapman, of the Port
land Commercial Club, after the ban
quet. The people of Oregon owe the
fact that they have a University to
the people of Eugene. Through their
patriotism and desire to work for
tho interests of Oregon they have
fought for this institution of higher
learning. It is the duty of the peo
ple of Oregon to take up the battle
which Eugene has been waging; and
I think they are ready to do so.
“Mr. Chairman,” he continued. “I
move that this body appoint a com
mittee of three to draw resolutions
thanking Eugene and stating the at
titude of this body. I move that Mr.
Werlein, who started the singing to
the tune of ‘My Hero’ and finished
with ‘How Dry I am,’ be chairman.”
Tho committee appointed was Philip
S. Bates, Mr. Werlein, and President
W. T. Foster of Reed College. The
resolutions as drawn are:
Resolutions Adopted.
“Whereas the people of Oregon,
participating in the fifth annual Com
monwealth Conference and represent
ing every part of the State have been
accorded every opportunity to ac
quaint themselves fully with the
work of toe institution, the specific
returns on the investment, and the
many difficulties and limitations con
fronting the Faculty and the Board
of Regents in effectively carrying on
its work.
“Therefore, be it resolved, that we
commend to the voters of the State
the work of the University and affirm
our convictions that this work can be
adequately carried forward only by
means of the funds appropriated by
the last legislature, and
“Be it further resolved, that the
immediate service of the University to
the entire State is of such great im
portance that the proposed refer
endum on the appropriation should be
opposed by every citizen who has at
heart the highest welfare of the
State.”

The Sophomores will leave the Lib

for their annual picnic. Seavey’s
Ferry is the destination and the
means of conveyance will be good old
fashioned hayracks with plenty of
hay to sit on.
“This is to be a get-together af
fair,” said President Hardesty. “We
want every Sophomore in college to
be there. If anyone misses this pic
nic, they’ll regret it the rest of their
lives.”
The committee in charge of eats
promises that there will be no short
age and that there will not only be
quantity, but also quality befitting
the class.
All candidates for Junior offices
will be given an opportunity to

tions and reasons for holding an of
fice. After this amusement this class
will play games and dance upon the
green, returning home in the full
moonlight.
IS RE-ELECTED MANAGER
Arthur M. Geary.
Arthur M. Geary, Graduate Man
ager of the University during the last
two years, was unanimously re-elected
at a joint meeting of the Executive
and Athletic Councils yesterday after
noon in Villard Hall, to fill the same
position for 1913-1914.
Mr. Geary, of Medford, Ore , grad
uated in 1911, from the Economics
Department, and immediately took up
his managerial duties, which he has
since executed in a satisfactory and
businesslike manner.
At the time of his first election,
Manager Geary pledged himself to
clear the Student Body of debt. To
ward this end he has already reduced
the deficit by half and from
the athletic schedule arranged for
next year, Mr. Geary, according to
prospects, will be able to clear this
debt and turn a surplus into the
treasury of the Student Body.
