AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE’S
PRESIDENT ADVISES
NO CONSOLIDATION
IS NO ECONOMY IN UNITING
Dr. Lory Holds Greater Effici
ency, on the Whole, Car. 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.

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

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.
A hooth has been installed at, the fair
grounds with Hen Williams in charge,
at which tags will be given out bearing

Day Fight
The Sophomore-Freshman mix
which was to have been held on Kin
caid Field Saturday afternoon, Sep
tember 27, has been postponed until

Marsh Goodwin have been working
hard to make this a successful af
fair. In order to do this the mia
will be staged either after the alum
ni game or the game with the Brem
erton navy yard team.

of the mix and will see that no one I
will be permitted on the field except;
the contestants. He will be assisted!
in this by several upper classmen;

; ty contests among the fair specta-1
tors and many other events. That!
evening a dance will be given by the:
