SUMMER SCHOOL
Every graduate who is teaching
should consider carefully the advan
tages of spending six weeks at th(
summer session of the University. Nc
better opportunity for professional
growth is easily available. Added tc
this opoprtunity will be the advan
tages of increasing acquaintanct
among the leaders in school work ir
the state. At the two big conferences
on educational problems, the list ol
those present will be almost equiva
lent to a “Who’s Who” of the school
men and women of Oregon.
The chance to do work in compara
tively small classes with G- Stanley
Hall, J. Duncan Spaeth, J. Elwood
Cubberly, Charles R. Frazier and our
own Henry D. Sheldon, and to come
into personal contact with these truly
significant men, is a chance which is
not offered to Oregon teachers by any
other institution.
BASEBALL
Shall there be an alumni baseball
i game during commencement week?
If so, when? And whom shall we
play? Shall it be the Seniors, that
those fledgling alumni may be brought
to know their proper place in the
scheme of things? Shall we give the
faculty a chance to redeem itself after
the recent series with the professors
from the Agricultural College?
Unfortunately, there is no elected
officer of the association who carries
the title of manager of athletics. How
ever, a mere detail like that will never
prevent the alumni from scheduling
a baseball game if they really want
it.
The baseball fever affects some peo
ple more readily than others. Several
graduates have already expressed
the opinion that commencement can
hardly be called complete without a
ball game. What about it?
MISS DELILAH PROSSER IS
WIFE OF DR. FETTEROLF
On Wednesday, May 26, Miss De
lilah Prosser, graduate of the Univer
sity, and for some time a member of
the faculty of the School of Music,
became the wife of Dr. George Fet
terolf, a leading physician of Phila
delphia.
Numerous alumnae, -close personal
friends of the bride, assisted in re
ceiving and doing the honors of the
occasion. Miss Jessie Prosser was
bridesmaid, and a brother of Dr. Fet
terolf acted as best man
Mr. and Mrs. Fetterolf left on the
afternoon of their wedding day for
Portland. From there they went to
San Francisco to visit the P. P. I. E.
They will go to their future home in
Philadelphia by way of the Grand
Canyon of the Colorado.
Dr. Fetterolf is a throat specialist
of national reputation.

BEN WILLIAMS PAYS HIS
DOLLAR AND GIVES VIEWS
Ben Williams, 10, statistician for
the Industrial Accident Commission
of Oregon, visited the campus on
Memorial Day, which was for his of
fice a holiday.
After securing a receipt for dues
for the year 1915-16, Mr. Williams
expressed his interest in student and
alumni matters.
“I am really surprised,” said Mr.
Williams, “at the showing which the
graduate manager, Mr- A. R. Tiffany,
has made this year in wiping out the
indebtedness of the Student Body and
finishing the year with a surplus.
Close connection through several
years with the finances of the Student
Body has taught me what a difficult
task Mr. Tiffany has accomplished.
“I am in favor of a day that shall
be known as Alumni Day at com
mencement time. Many busy alumni
can come back only for one day, al
though this might easily be increased
to two, if Alumni Day were placed
on Saturday or Monday. Of course,
Tuesday of commencement week is
practically Alumni Day as matters
now stand, and has the advantage of
being the day before Commencement
Day, which is in a way the culminat
ing point of the interest of the week.
I have talked with Walter Winslow,
’06, who presented the idea at the
last annual meeting, and hope that he
or someone else will present a feasi
ble and detailed plan for an Alumni
Day in 1916.”
TSCHANZ WILL STUDY AT
CHICAGO AND COLUMBIA
Herman C. Tschanz, ’12, has re
signed the superintendency of the

remarkable way.

mer at the University of Chicago.
He will leave once more for Chicago
in a few days, there to spend two
more quarters, before taking his de
gree of Master of Arts.
From Chicago, Mr. Tschanz will go
to Columbia University in quest of
the work which will bring him the
degree of Ph- D.
