LAI ORPHEUM HEADLINER
May Complete Engineering Course
at Oregon Later.
William Lai, a former member of
the Glee Club and who recently de
lighted the Rex theatre audiences
with his silvered tenor voice, is a
headliner on the Orpheum Circuit in
the East. Special oriental scenery
and effects were procured by the
management to form a befitting back
ground for his act. His tour will
probably extend to the Pacific coast
where he has acquired untold popu
larity. Lai is, however, seriously
thinking of returning to dear old
.Oregon to complete his engineering
course.

LECTURE ‘SERIES IN
MULISH STARTED
Horace E. Thomas Gives News
paper Talk Before Class
es in Journalism
The first of a series of lectures to
be delivered before the classes in
journalism this year by newspaper
men of the state was given Friday
afternoon in McClure hall, when As
sistant City Editor Horace E. Thom
as, of the Oregonian, delivered an in
teresting lecture to the combined
ournalism classes.
Mr. Thomas spoke on the subject
of “Good and Bad Reporting," and
in part said:
,“One of the most Important things
to a reporter is, he must be accurate.
Then, too, he must be reliable and
cautious. Allowing incaution with
regard to confirming the facts of a
story lays a newspaper open to an
attack of a rival paper, and two
newspapers attacking each other
causes the public to become distrust
ful of their news., A reporter must
have good news judgment, but the
time is past when it waB said a news
paper man was born, cot made, for
he may be trained as well as any
other vocational man. Conciseness,
leatness, independence, energy, ami
ability, watchfulness, trustworthi
ness, obediency, promptness, loyalty
and good habits are also essential,
and all these elements are those fot
which the newspaper men work to
day.”
GRADS “HOME COMING” DAY
Alumni Revisit the Scenes of Their
“Days at Oregon."
Today is “Home Coming” day for

since graduation. The changes that
they find and the faces they see will
be many.
The University of Oregon alumni
association plans to have a paid sec
retary in the field next year, who
will arrange for the football game
and who will 'urge all alumni mem
bers to be present.
Undue interest is being aroused
by Dr. Stewart's classes in field
hockey and golf, on the lower cam
pus, and daily, many beads are cran
ed from the upper windows of the
University buildings.
Have you noticed the new specials
at the Varsity each day?
