USIEO III “WHO'S WHO"
Summary of Seven Members Appears
in 1914-1915 Edition Now in
University Library
Seven members of the University
Faculty are listed in the new 1914-1915
“Who’s Who in America,” which was
received by the University a shoVt
time ago.
The summary which President P. L.
Campbell furnished the “Who’s Who”
is modestly restricted to the fact that
he is a member of the State Text Book
Commission.
The most complicated biography of
the lot goes to Warren DuPre’ Smith,
geologist. After his name, he j,s en
titled to wri& the°following titles: B.
S., M. A., Ph. D., F. R. G. S., A. A. A.
S., Mem. G. S. A., and P S E
“Who’s Who” says Dr Smith was
bom in Leipzig, Germany, and it gives
his present address as 613 San Mar
celino, Manila, P. I.
Dr. F. G. G. Schmidt was bom in
Untermagerbein, Bavaria. He is the
author of Die Reiser Mundart, Munich,
and the editor of eight other German
works. The extra “G” stands for
“Gottlob.” •
Professor T. D. Cloran’s summary
shows that he was connected with
nine other institutions of learning be
fore he came to Oregon. He puts him
self down as a democrat. He is the
author of a philosophical study of
“Angier’s Anglo-Norman French
Translation of the Dialogues of Greg
ory the Great,” and of a 1911 edition
of Chateaubriand’s “Atala.”
A study of the record of Dr. F. G.
Young revealed the fact that he has
been the Professor of Economics and
Sociology at the University of Oregon
since 1896. One also learns that he
is the author of a book called “Financ
es of Oregon,” and also of “various
historical and Other articles in histor.
ical and other journals.”
Apparently the fact that Ellis F.
Lawrence is a University professor
did not appeal to the compilers of
“Who’s Who,” or else it had escaped
their notice. He is listed as a mem
ber of the firm of Ellis F. Lawrence
and William G. Holford, associate ar
chitects, of Portland. Among other
associations, he is given as a mem
ber of A. I. A., the Oregon chapter
of which he was President in 1912.
“CIVIC BIOLOGY,” BY 11R. HODGE
AND CO-WORKER IS ON PRESS
“Civic Biology,” a high school text,
written by Dr. Clifton Fremont Hodge
in collaboration with Dr. Joan Daw
son, of the Cleveland High School, is
now on the press. The object of this
book is to supplement “Nature Stu
dy and Life," a text for the grades,
written by Dr. Hodge, and is to pre
pare for the college text, "Dynamic
Biology,” which will be written in
the near future.
The volume will contain from 400
to 600 pages, with several hundred
illustrations from original sources.
The house tly has one chapter to him
self. Other subjects treated are:
birds, forestry, plants, landscape gar
dening, home planting, and phases of
agriculture.
RECOMMENDATIONS PREPARED
FOR MEETING OF REGENTS
The committee of the Board of Re
gents, who met Friday, March 19,
have prepared recommendations to
submit at the special meeting of the
Board, which will be held here April
10. This committee decided not to
publish the recommendations ud|il
after they have been acted upon by
the Board as a whole.
“Some statements which have ap
peared in the current press are un
official and to some extent inaccu
rate,” said President P. L. Campbell
today.
OREGON LIBRARY NOW
HAS 53,800 VOLUMES
Students Are Reading More; Many
Books Sent Out Over
State
The University of Oregon Library
now ranks second in size of all col
lege libraries in the Northwest. The
University of Washington ranks first.
At present the Oregon library num
bers 53,800 volumes, and an° addition
of 400 to 800 is made each year.
There are of this number 470 books
unaccountably missing. 0
Oregon students are sard to be us
ing the ca^npus library much more
this year than ever before.
Max jSommer is still at the head of
the list of readers, reading more on
his own initiative than any other stu
dent in college. Lawrence Dinneen is
a close second. Many books are sent
to people over the state. So far this
year 1,443 books have been distrib
uted by mail.
Lists of books have been prepared
by the Librarians and sent out over
the state. Special lists have been
made on such subjects as child study,
and outlined reading for doctors and
ministers. Upon request the Libra
rians will prepare a list of books on
any subject.
BEZDEK HAS NOT YET
PICKED THE REGULARS
(Continued liom page 1.)
worry.
This shift leaves only one place, an
outfield, for which there is not one
candidate who stands head-high over
the rest.
Coach Bezdek emphatically claims
to be at a loss to know who the for
tunate man will be. There are sev
eral out for it, and there are some
regular ones in the list, but it is fast
company they are trying to travel
with, and, to use the coach’s words,
"the man who finds a home in that
field has got to be a real ball player
with college speed.”
Captain Welch, “Bill” Tuerck and
Johnnie Beckett are the pitchers un
less someof the others uncover some
new ones. There ar» men out for
places on the pitching staff whom the
coach says are “comers,” but lacking
in experience and strength as they
line up now. They are being watched
and coached along, and, sooner or lat
er, may be developed into real “slab
kings.”
There is a possible chance that
MiOMinnville may be brought here for
a game this coming Saturday. Man
ager Tiffany said last night that he
is in communication with them, but
so far has no satisfaction as to what
they will do.
Every other date is filled. The Col
ored Giants are on schedule for March
30; Chemawa, in Eugene, April 3;
and then the team will leave on the
vacation trip, meeting Salem High
School, Willamette, Chemawa, Mt. An
gel College, Pacific University, and
then the University of Washington^
Coach Bezdek is planning on mak
ing these preliminary games count
a good deal for the team, as this will
be the last of the early training and
the last lick to put the men into con
ference shape.
MARSH GOODWIN OPERATED ON
FOR APPENDICITIS SUNDAY
Marsh G odd win f a Senior majoring
in the Law Department, was operated
upon for appendicitis at the Me^y
Hospital Sunday night. The operation
is reported as having been success
ful and Goodwin will be able to re
sume his college work in a few days.
; Goodwin first became ill Friday ev.
| ening, and his condition became so
bad that he was taken to the hospital,
where it was decided that an opera
j tion was necessary.
Goodwin was manager of the Em
1 erald last year.
Y. M. C. A. SECURES $1,809
IN WORK FOR MEN STUDENTS
Eighteen hundred dollars has beer
earned by men students of the Uni
, versity this year through the Y. M.
C. A. Embployment Bureau, according
to Charles W. Koyl, General Secreta
ry. The total for the whole year, Mr,
Koyl thinks, will be greater than in
past years. Last year $2,378 was
earned. One hundred and ninety-six
jobs have been given out this year
to date, as compared with 155 during
the whole of last year.
“Koyl’s bureau is doing magnificent
work,” says Dr. John Straub. “It is
helping to keep many men in school.
Work is scarce just now. In the 37
years I have been connected with the
University there has not been a year
that was so hard for self-supporting
students. 0
“Sut ? am looking for better con
ditions Sfter the £pril vacation. Build
ing and gardening will open up then,
and conditions ought to be better.”
The Y. M. C. A. bureau keeps on
the lookout for jobs, advertises for
them in the local papers, and gets
some work unsolicited. Yesterday,
Mr. Koyl says, was the first time this
year that he had jobs waiting. Four
gardeners were wanted.
SIX HIGH SCHOOLS REMAIN IN
INTER-SCH6LASTIC DEBATE
Six high schools now remain in the
Oregon High School Debating League,
and this number will be reduced to
four by the first of the week. Pendle
ton is to meet Enterprise Saturday,
March 27, and Medford will meet
Bandon, Monday, April 29, possibly
on the University campus. Thus far,
Prineville has beaten Astoria and Sa
lem has beaten Albany.
The four high schools, which shall
be the winners after the coming de
bates, are to meet in semi-finals soon,
and the winners of this contest will
debate at the University during Jun
ior Week-End, on the night of May
8.
Four professors were recently
asked to resign at the University of
Utah, because they were not members
of the Mormon church. The student
body held a protest meeting, but
without results.
The students of Cornell University
recently have pledged $4,200 to the
Christian Association.
Because the training rules were
broken by a number of players on the
University of Colorado football team,
the right to receive and wear Var
sity insignia was denied to seven of
the first string men and to all but
four of the second team.
Y. W. ADVISORY BOARD FETES
CABINET AND HONOR GUESTS
The Y. W. C. A. Advisory Board

were Miss Ruth Guppy, Mrs. P. L.
Campbell, Miss Elizabeth Fox, Miss
Leslie Blanchard and Miss Mary
Watson. Covers were laid for 22.
PROFESSOR DESCIBES LIFE -
IN THE AGE OF REPTLIES
Prof. W. D. Smith, head of the De
partment of Geology, gave an illus
trated lecture on “The Vertebrate An
imals” before his class in “Historical
Geology” yesterday. “If we lived in
the Jurassic Age,” the professor said,
“we would have 80 and 90 foot rep
tiles walking around u^ The skele
ton of a dinosaur, 104 feet from nose
tip to tail was found the other day.”
EASTERN CLASSICAL SOCIETY3
ASKS FOR DUNN’S" PAPER
Permission to read a paper on “By
Ways in Caesarian Bibliography” at
the annual meeting of the Classical
Association of the Atlantic States,
to be held at Swarthmore College,
Swarthmore, Pa., May 7 and 8, has
been asked of Prof. F. S. Dunn, of the
Department of Latin, author of the
paper.
The request comes from Mr. Chas.
Knapp, Secretary-Treasurer of the
Association. Mr. Knapp explains that
the great war in Europe has made it
worth while to study the life of Jul
ius Caesar and that in this connection
it is desired to read Professor Dunn’s
paper.
