The collection is kept in an interior room at the northern end of the Library proper. The books, written in Latin and Greek, and1 in one case in both lan guages, are bound in heavy leather. Although some of the volumes are worm eaten, they are still in a good state of preservation. Among them is a book on physics by Aristotle, translated from the Greek into Latin and published in 1549. A Greek book, printed in 1547, was presented to the Library by Henry M. Thorsen in 1890. The small strip of white muslin which was a part of the flag which swung from tife masthead over the Civil War, still shows the efffects of the war. It bears marks caused by the smoke which enveloped the city when it was beseiged by the Union army. On the back of the card to which the bit of muslin is attached is an explanatory note writen by the late Colonel A. B. Lawrence, of War saw, New York, who in 1910 pre sented to the Library the memento at the request of his comrade, Rev. Henry Lathrop. Colonel Lawrence was Chief Quartermaster of the Fourth Army Corps at the time Rich mond was beseiged. The note is as | follows: “The attached piece of bunt I ing is a part of the Confederate flag that floated over the Confederate Capitol in Richmond, Virginia, was captured with the city in April, 1865, and replaced by our “Old Glory,” U. S. flag. The captured C. S. A. flag was spread out ‘for exhibition in the C. S. Senate chamber. Upon some insulting protests by a Confederate brigadier about the flag, Major-Gen eral M. R. Patrick—U. S. Provost Marshall authorized1 me to cut up the flag for mementos of a sacrifice j of 400,000 loyal lives. “A. 15. LAWRENCE, “Warsaw, N. Y., June 1, 1910.” The newspaper, “The Daily Citi | zen,” was published during the siege I of Vicksburg. The news is printed I on the back of a piece of green wall paper and bears the date July 2. 18615. It is clear and well-printed. The sheet is full of news about the war and down in one corner is a notice, written after the fall of the city, telling of Grant's victory. The editor was 11. M. Swords. Another interesting article is a $10 Confederate banknote, issued April j 1', 1 863, numbered 80,157. It was i included among those distributed by Chief Quartermaster Lawrence to the i’nion soldiers after the siege of Richmond. The gavel was made from a pear tree planted by Lincoln and which "as cut down after his death in 1865, It is not known whether it was ever j used by the martyred President or j not.' t t) i) o i > a a i \ 0 o o Through a regretted mis- o o take, the name of Prof. F.

All of which illustrates that it is not because they love themselves the less but because they love their univer sity the more. A campus game gives all of the student body free entrance under the present season ticket plan, whereas now many are prevented from see ing the Portland and Albany con tests because they can not afford it or, as in case with many of the uni versity women, because their parents do not wish for them to take such trips unless they are chaperoned. The townspeople of Eugene, who made great sacrifices to give the uni versity a start in the very first place and who have helped steer it through many a referendum fight since then, are also entitled to consideration in this connection. The university does owe a debt of gratitude to its friends in Albany and to those who have helped make the Albany games suc cesses, but the obligation at Eugene is larger immeasurably. Then again, a game on Kincaid will do more than anything else could do to get the old grads back on the campus, thus bringing the graduates closer to the university and closer to their fellow graduates in intimate connection with their undergraduate associa tions. That is worth something. Some may think that campus games between the university and the agricultural college would pre cipitate student quarrels not un known to the past, hut surely the one good permanent lesson that has been learned will act effectively to checkmate any possible recurrence of unpleasantness. In recent years the rival student bodies have shown un mistakably that they are sensible and honorable enough to meet with out “scrapping” and the test of a campus game would probably prove that the two partisan factions are strictly on their guard against an other such mistake. Perhaps court esy and decorum of even Alphonso and Gaston ritual would rule su preme. Anyhow, if the students of these two institutions are not com petent of reasonable behavior on their home campus surroundings, why should they b* spoiled to the ex tent of setting up an artificial sur rounding? So far as that is concern ed, squabbles can be pulled off any where, and if they are to come in the end, they will come at Albany and Portland just as they might at Eugene and Corvallis. It seems that all of the alumni re gard Hugo Bezdek as the right man in the right place. They believe, not only that he has developed the possi bilities of the football men to the full and made the team absolutely a front ranker, but that he has been doing a more permanent, if not more im portant, work by nourishing the ath letes, and the men and women of the university as \%ell, with a very whole some brand of collegiate psychology, that he has been rebuilding a won derful Spirit, one that may be inter rupted once in a while but which, in the end, will never be downed or humbled. They believe that the return of vital games to the Eugene campus would fortify his efforts in this direction and give him a better prospect of early supremacy. So far as the writer has been able to deter mine in a general way, the Oregon alumni like Hugo Bezdek and are very proud of Bezdek’s 1913 team. The expressions in this communi cation are given by me with abso lutely no authority from any one. but at the same time, the writer believes that they are approximately accur ate and he feels secure that he has represented unofficially the opinion of the Portland alumni, or at least those who were loyal enough to turn out for the jolly-up meeting just prior to the Washington game.
