DEM STRAUB HUS BIS
SRCGESS OR TRIP
•>'_r ■ :
High School Students Accompany
Representative of Oregon While
He Talks About the “U”
“A big success” is the phrase with
which Dr. John Straub characterizes
his trip to Eastern Oregon last week.;
As a result of the Extension lectures
he has been invited to deliver com
mencement addresses at Drain, Wood
burn and Sutherlin. The address at
Sutherlin will have to be cancelled,
Siowever, for it comes on the same
night as the commencement of the
Drain ’15 class, which he promised
first.
Many personal touches that dis
played interest in the University and
its agents were experienced by the
Dean. At Drain he addressed the
high school between 9:00 and 10:00 A.
M. and talked a half hour with the
members of the Senior class. He
then had to go to Yoncalla to deliver
an address between 2:00 and 3:00 that
afternoon, and as there were no trains
he had to walk. Dr. Straub had just
got out of the building when the su
perintendent called him back and
asked:
“Would you like to have the boys
walk over with you?”
* So with the boys, and girls, who
followed later, the Dean set out to
Yoncalla, walking a mile with four
or five of the students at a time, tell
ing them about the University. Yon
calla is six miles from Drain. Arriv
ing at Yoncalla the crowd picnicked
in the basement of the high school.
Dr. Straub delivered an address at
2:00 before the two student bodies.
The students of both high schools
then accompanied the veteran “Or
egonian” to the train, where he de
parted for the next lecture stop.
At Wasco, after Dr. Straub’s ad
dress, the double quartette of the high
school got up and sang, “There’s a
pretty little village.”

“IN TftB OREGON COUNTRY” BY
putnaM, At Book stands
George Palmer Putnam’s last book,
“In the Oregon Country,” is now on I
sale at J. K. Gill’s, ih Portland. It!
contains an introduction written by
Governor James Withycombe.
Mr. Putnam, formerly editor of the
Bend Bulletin, and now Secretary to
the Governor, visited on the campus
and spoke at assembly last Novem
ber.
New bleachers constructed of steel
and planning to seat 7,000 spectators
are being constructed on Soldiers I
Field at Harvard. An arched entrance
is also being built back of home plate.
This will not interfere with the early
season games and .will be ready for
use in the Princeton game on June 5.
For the first time in the history of
the chapter, juniors were elected to j
Phi Beta Kappa at Princeton. Six of;
tile third year men were so honored. ‘
f. II. TO SEND 15 MEN
Conference to be Held at Seabeck,
Washington; Lectures and
Sports on Program
The University of Oregon will be
represented at the Pacific Northwest
Student Conference, at Seabeck,
Washington, June 11 to 20, by prob
ably fifteen men. Six have sigi.ed up
for the trip and eight others are sure
of going.
Seabeck is a little resort on the
shore of Puget Sound, a few hours
by boat from Seattle. The sound of
fers facilities for swimming and boat
ing and the broad beach will be the
scene of athletic contests.
The expense of the trip, including
railroad and boat fare, board for
nine days and the fee for the confer
ence, will be $25.75.
Each morning and evening will be
devoted to attending lectures and ad
dresses. Among the speakers are Dr.
John H. Boyd, of Portland, Prof. Nor
man H. F. Cole, Reed College, and
Prese. M. A. Brannon, University of
Idaho. The afternoons will be de
voted largely to swimming, canoeing,
tennis, indoor and outdoor baseball,
volley ball, hikes and track meets.
In past years Oregon has sent from
five to thirteen men to the summer
conference. Last year there were
only five.
ICE CREAM TO BE SOLD
Y. M. to Resume Custom of Selling
“Bricks” as Long as Wrappers
Are Kept Off Campus
Beginning the first of next week,
the Y. M. C A will resume its hot
weather custom of selling ice cream
bricks The profits from the sales
will probably be added to the mission
ary fund of $1000 which was pledged
to the support of Jim Lyman, a former
Oregon student, now working in Tur
key as a missionary.
“We will continue the sale of the
ice cream just as long as the wrap
pers are kept off the campus,” said
Charles Koyl, who has charge of all
the Y. M. C. A. sales of edibles. “We
cannot afford at this time of year,
with the prospect of a large number
of visitors, to allow the campus to
be all littered up with papers. The
ice cream was in demand last year
by the students, and if they want
it this year they must keep the wrap
pers off the campus. In this connec
tion I believe it might be a good plan
to place a few small, neat paper re
ceptacles, painted green, about the
campus or on the trees for the wrap
pers.”
EXTENSION WORKERS AID
PORTLAND FLY SWATTERS
Material is being furnished by Dr.
C. F. Hodge and Earl Kilpatrick, of
the Extension Department, to the
city Board of Health in Portland to
help the board in its anti-fly cam
paign. The campaign has reached
such proportions that it has been ar
ranged to distribute 20,000 traps.
School children are taking part. The
new Chamber of Commerce is said to
be in sympathy with the movement.
CHURCH’S DESIGN FOR SETTING
OF PLAY CHOSEN BY GUILD
From among ten unsigned draw
ings recently submitted by the class
in Architecture for the outdoor set
ting of the commencement play, “The
Shopkeeper Turned Gentleman,” the
one by Walter Church was selected
by the Drama Guild committee. The
design, however, must be consid
ered by Prof. Ellis F. Lawrence, head
of the Department of Architecture,
before it is finally accepted.
A strict guard system as recom
mended by the faculty and student
committee until such a time as the
students shall, of their own volition,
adopt an honor system, has been
unanimously endorsed by the facul
ty of the University of Washington.
Ralph Young, for three years full
back for the Washington and Jeffer
son eleven, has signed to coach De
pauw University.

HEART INTEREST IS GIFT
Journalism Department Receives Cop
ies of Old Papers Held Very
Precious by Donor
Copies of “The Christian Union ’
and “The Union Signal,” dating from
1875, have been sent by the Women’s
Christian Temperance Union of Cres
well to the Department of Journal
ism for preservation in the Journal
ism museum.
“You will see that we feel that we
are entrusting to you some very pre
cious relics,” writes Mrs. E. M.
Thompson, the Corresponding Secre
tary.
“The papers were the property of
Mrs. Louise Howe Johnson, who was
a subscriber. She mentioned espe
cially The Christian Union, to which
she subscribed for nearly 30 years,
saying, ‘It was my church and all the
religious food for my soul, except my
Bible, which I would have for months
at a time. The Union Signal has
been my weekly visitor ever since it
j was published.’
“Mrs. Johnson is the mother of L.
H. Johnson, Steward at U. of 0., and
a charter member of our W. C. T. U.”

NOMINATIONS ARE MADE FOR
NEXT YEAR’S STUDENT OFFu'E
(Continued from page 1.)
C. A. Cabinet, and that he is also
a member of the Student Council.
That Max Sommer has proved him
self the man best qualified for the
editorship, was the contention of Lee
Hendricks. “I do not come here as
editor of the Emerald to try to dic
tate who shall be my successor,” de
clared Hendricks, “but only as one
who has been in a position to know
what the various candidates have
| done to deserve the job.” Hendricks
said he could not name a long list
of societies of which his candidate
J was a member, or offices which he had
■ held, because he was neither a “chron
| ic joiner” nor an “office seeker.” In
stead, tne speaxer pointed to oom
mer’s high record in scholarship dur
ing the past three years, and to his
work as managing editor of the Em
erald. “In considering the qualifica
tions of a candidate for this position,
we don’t care how he parts his hair
or whether he dances the Lulu-Fado,”
was one of the speaker’s statements.
“We want a man who will go down
into the shop, roll up his sleeves to
the shoulders, wallow in the grime
and ink, wrestle with the printers,
and put out a paper three times a
week which shall represent the best
i brains and sentiment and pep in the
| Student Body.”
Hendricks emphasized that if his
candidate were elected, the Student
Body should have a paper which re
flected their sentiment, and not that
of the faculty.
The only nominee for the office of
Vice President was Harry Kuck, of
The Dalles, whose name was intro
duced by Bert Jerard. The latter told
of Kuck’s work as sporting editor of
the Emerald, as a member of the bas
ketball squad for three years, and as
a member of the Inter-Fraternity
Athletic Association for two years.
Eva Brock, Marie Churchill and
Louise Bailey were nominated for the
position of Secretary of the Student
Body by Rex Kay, C. C. Baker and
Anthony Jaureguy, each of whom ex
{ plained why, in his opinion, his candi
date had proved her fitness for the
place.
Wallace Eakin and Fred Dunbar
were nominated by James Donald and
Marsh Goodwin as members of the
Executive Committee of the Student
Body.
For member of the Athletic Coun
cil, Anson Cornell, Lyle Bigbee, Sam
Cook and Bill Tuerck were, in suc
cession, nominated by Victor Morris,
Prentiss Brown, Dean Crowell and
Marsh Goodwin.
Three Senior members for the Stu
dent Council are to be elected, and
the nominees for these positions were
Bothwell Avison, Don Orput and
Cleveland Simpkins, who were laud
' ed in turn by Earl Blackaby, Boyce
, Fenton and James Donald.
The names of Genevieve Shaver
and Arvilla Beckwith were presented
j for Senior members of the Student
i Council by Marsh Goodwin and Lee
Hendricks, and that of Mildred
; Broughton for Junior woman mem
ber of the same body by James Don
ald.
Fred Kiddle was nominated by Sam
Michael as a Junior member of the
Student Council.
