ARE IN LIBRARY
WORM EATEN VOLUMES OF
GREEK, LATIN, SPANISH,
DATE BACK TO 1547
COLLECTION IS VALUABLE
Relics of Interest of Civil War
Times Are Strip of Confeder
ate Flag, Note, and News
paper
Hidden in an almost unknown part
of the University Library are twenty
Latin and Greek books with dates
ranging between the fifteenth to the
sixteenth centuries; a small strip of
the flag which floated over the Con
federate Capitol at Richmond during
the Civil War; a newspaper printed
at Vicksburg just before its capture
by the Union army; a Confederate
bank note, and a gavel made from a
pear tree planted by Abraham Lin
coln. 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

GRADS WANT CAMPUS GAMES
(Continued from page 1)
pense or inconvenience, but I be
lieve we owe it to our university to
advocate that this game be taken
back to Eugene where it properly
and normally belongs.” The other
men thought the same and placed
themeslves on record accordingly.
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.
Always very faithfully vours,
