Be Gained by Separate Institu tions. Portland. Or., Sept. 2n An educii tional situation quite similar to that in Oregon has been discovered in Colo rado by the Oregon Citizens’ Kduca tional league, which has been conduct ing an inquiry among college presi dents of the United States. The Hague’s investigations Inis been to as certain the comparative advantages of separated and consolidated state uni versities and agricultural colleges. In Colorado, there is the State Uni versitv at, Boulder, the School of Mines at Golden, the State Teachers’ College at Greeley Hnd the State Agricultural College at Fort. Collins, each under a separate board of control. In Colora do, as in Oregon, there is some de gree of agitation for a single board of regents to govern all four institutions. Charles A. Lory, president of the Agricultural College, ha* answered the league's inquiry in part, as follows: “I should not. presume to advise for or against consolidation in Oregon. There are many arguments in favor of eonaolidation, remember, however, that a certain amount of competition is a good thing. 1 do not believe we should have the enrollment in the vari ous institutions of higher lenrning if they were consolidated into one. As it la now, four state institutions are urging the high school graduates to go on to college, and no matter to what institution he goes, the work of the others is of a positive nature in deoid ing him to go to college, “From an economic standpoint, I doubt whether much could be saved by consolidation. 1 have made quite a study of the cost of consolidation and I do not find that the very large consolidated institutions get any more for their money than do the smaller sepnrate institutions.''

RIVALRY IS HELD GOOD FOR BOTH NORTH DAKOTA EXPERIENCE IS AGAINST UNITING TWO INSTITUTIONS NOTHING TO BE GAINED Precious Little Saving Possible, Says President J. H. Worst of the State Agricultural Col lege. Portland, Or,, Sept. 25.— Decided ad vice agaiaat any consolidation of tlie University of Oregon and the Oregon Agricultural College is contained in a letter from President ,f. II. Worst, LL. n., head of the North Dakota Agricul tural college and Government Kxperi ment station. Dike Oregon, North Da 1 otn is a state of immense agricultural resources, and the inquiry as to his vows on consolidation was made of President Worst by the Oregon Citi zens' Educational league of Portland. 1 ho reply is in part: “Where institutions have been or ganized separately, as in Oregon, I would not favor the consolidation of the University and the Agricultural College. I would not advise a single board of regents and a single head where the schools are separate. Polities and local influence are yet so strong that I question whether a board of re gents could be selected big enough and strong enough not to favor one as against the other; in fact, I rather favor a strong institutional rivalry so long as it is kept within sane bounds. Whatever saving in dollars and cents might result from consolidation would certainly be lost in the agricultural in fluence the Agricultural College should exert upon the young men of the stute. “Permit me to say in conclusion that entirely too much stress is being placed upon the size of expenditures usually charged sip to the support of two insti tutions such as the University and the Agricultural College. In consolidation there would be precious little money saved. Usually the motive behind the consolidation movement is prejudice against the growing influence of the Agricultural College, and certainly where a state depen N upon agriculture for its prosperity, it would seem deair able to give every encouragement to ag rieultural education.

Definite action was taken bv the Eugene alumni Tuesday at a meeting held in the Commercial club rooms to persuade every voter in the city of Eu !t«ne to register before October 8. The > ity has been divided into 17 districts and block committeemen appointed to superintend the canvassing of every hou^e in Eugene in the interest of the I niversitv appropriations which will come up for vote of the people at the special election on .November 4. It was repeatedly pointed out at this meeting that there would be many in favor of the I Diversity appropriations, who would perhaps not. cast their ballot through indifference, unless the need of each and every vote was explained and urged, in order to make an overwhelm ing majority in favor of the I'niversity. Aftr re organizing the Eugene Alum ni association, Hen H. Williams was elected precident and Grace Hobbs, sec retary. A committee was appointed consisting of M. S. Wallis, Mrs. Graham Mitchell, Mrs. Betty Humphrey, Miss Mozelle Hair, and Webster Kincaid to co-operate in urging every alumnus of the state to begin an individual cam paign in his locality for the I’niversity. A committee consisting of M. S. Wallis, David Graham and Ray Goodrich was appointed to confer with the Commer cial club committee in icgard to raising more funds. Women graduates are asked to be present at an alumnae meeting next Saturday at 2:30 p. m„ at the home of Mrs. Louis Johnson, at 1116 Charnel ton street.
