STUDENTS TO MAHAGE
U. or O. BOOK STORE'
AFTER THE H011TS
Store to Provide Practical La
boratory; Will Be Moved to
Commerce Building.
Immediately after the Christmas
vacation the Library Book-store will
move from its present location In the
basement of the University Library
to the room now occupied by the
electrical laboratory in the Com
merce building. From that time on
the class in banking, of the school of
commerce, will have complete charge
of its management.
By this change the school of com
merce will have a practical labora
tory, which is a privilege not now
enjoyed by arfy other similar com
merce department in the nation, ac
cording to Dr. D. W. Morton, dean of
the school of commerce.
“This is a splendid thing for our
department,” said Dr. Morton. “This
book-store, in its new quarters, will
be used as a laboratory for the com
merce classes and will tie controlled
by them exclusively.
Special attention will be given to
the questions of the number of books
to bo purchased and the terms of
purchase. The hope Is that the work
of running this store will be divided
up among the various phases of the
department. The class In accounting
will probably write up the accounts.
The class in cost accounting will
work out a cost system for running
it. •The retail store accounting class,
which we hope soon to inaugurate,
will be afforded an excellent oppor
tunity for practical work. Accounts
and a report of the financial standing
of the store will be tabulated by the
class In auditing.”
It Is also planned that the book
store may be ns systematically man
aged as any store in a large city.
"Thl^ new project together with
the outside lecturers who come here
are two of the things which will give
to the student in the commerce de
partment (lit' advantages of the big
city in the smaller town,” said Prof.
Dr. Morton.
M. H. Douglass, who has had di
rect charge of the book-store, believes
that this change will be a fine thing
for everyone concerned.
"The book-store was started about
five years ago,” said Dr. Douglass.
"It grew out of a move on the part
of the faculty at that time to arrange
a more satisfactory and expedient
manner of handling text books In
the city of Eugene. At that time all
of the text-books were handled by
the local stores. Sometimes there
were too many books ordered, and
often not enough. The store has al
ways been managed as a matter of
convenience to the University faculty
and students, rather than a money
making concern. I asked Mr. Morton
some time ago If he would not be In
terested In taking it over to the com
merce department and 1 met with a
hearty response."
“LAW AS A VOCATION”
TOPIC OF CHIEF JUSTICE
“Umrn the 10 commandments,"
advised Chief Justice Chester
Moores in speaking on "Law as a
Vocation," In the Guild Theatre
Thursday night. The speaker laid
special stress on the early prepara
tion for those who intend to enter
the legal profession. The necessity
for a thorough mastery of English
and the utility of a well developed
memory were given paramount im
portance by tile lecturer.
"You must be a close student all
vour life If you expect to practice
law, for you will lie called upon to
decide matters in every line of busi
ness endeavors However, by con
stant application you can become
master of situations.
"A lawyer's success depends up
on his rectitude. A simple slip from
the narrow path will lose for him his
prestige and position he holds in so
ciety."
Justice Moore held his listeners
throughout by his ever ready wit and
humor. He made several references
to the Bible and his final admonition
to his hearers was "I-earn the Ten
Commandments.’*
MEN HAVE MAJORITY
OF 71 OVER WOMEN
Ataong the 783 students registered
at Oregon this year 42 7 are men and
356 are women. This means that 71
more men than women attend the
University.
The Senior class numbers 105. The
Jnlors are 137 strong.
The Sophomore mass has two more
students than both upper classes
combined. They number 244.
The Freshmen class can boast of a
little more than one-third of all
those registered; but they do not
outnumber the sophomores as to
great a degree as generally happens.
Ten graduate students take work,
and 13 people are registered as spe
cial students.

The limiting of intercollegiate
football games to seven is expected
to work no hardship. This year the
University squad is playing only six,
when under no restrictions. The
University of Washington game
would have made the seventh. The
game with Multnomah is not an in
tercollegiate game. The committee
recommended that conference games
be limited to three In any one sea
son, but the faculty voted down this
provision.
One reason the faculty set no arbi
trary limit on the number of con
ference games was the possibility of
a change in conference lineup soon.
For three weeks there have been
whispers here and there over the
campus of a possible five team Pa
eifc coast conference with Oregon,

such a lineup, Oregon might desire

MIMIC DRAMA
WILL PORTRAf REALISM
Charlie P e n to n, Heretofore
Histrionically Unknown,
Will Take the Lead.
(By Martha Beer)
If the opinion of the cast is to be
depended upon, “What the Public
Wants,” which is to be presented on
the evenings of October 28 and 29
by the class in Dramatic Interpreta
tion will be entirely different from
any previous work of the department.
The production will be treated
throughout in the most realistic
manner possible and the student com
mittee in charge of the stage setting
asserts that a finished production
will be forthcoming.
The play is pTobably the best
known of Arnold Bennett’s dramas
and deals with the problems and de
mands of modern journalism. Charles
Wlorgan, the principal character, is
a man who has gained success in the
newspaper world by means of un
scrupulous business tactics.
With the exception of Marion Tut
tle, Eyla Walker and Ernest W’at
kins, the students in the cast are
dramatically unknown to University
playgoers, 'but rumor has it that
there is to be more than one sur
prise waiting for the audience on the
nights of production.
The lead, Emily Vernon, “the ac
tress who cannot act," is to be taken
by Charlie Fenton. Miss Fenton has
never yet apepared in a dramatic
production at the University, but she
is a promising actress and likes Em
ily Vernon, although she has, she af
firms. “never done anything emo
tional before.” Marion Tuttle has
apepared before in minor roles and
is not unknown in this work. She
promises to be a treat as Mrs. Cle
land.
“What the Public Wants” is of
special interest at this time, since it;
is to be given as a part of the pro
gram at the Convention of the West
ern Asociation of Teachers of Jour
nalism which is to be held at the
University on October 28 and 29.
of the athletes’ energy for studies,
but would do no harm to the games
themselves. "When a team knows it
has to be through by a certain time,
it works harder and faster and gets
better results,” argued one faculty
member. “A long,drawn out, slow
practice leaves players so fatigued
they are useless until the next day.”
Scouting was not found to be an
evil in the University of Oregon; in
fact, the committee was outspoken in
its report about the “freedom from
objectionable practices” of athletics
here. In recommending a request

in the
“SILENT VOICE”
upon the Northwest Conference to
forbid scouting, however, the com
mitee 'deemed it wise that the Uni
versity first take formal action itself
as an evidence Q,f entire good faith.
The prohibition of scouting prevents
athletes being promised jobs or offer
ed any inducement to come to the
University in the expectation that
they will be candidates for varsity
teams.
The faculty rejected as too strin-.
gent the committee’s proposal that
a student who had received F (fail
ure) in any one subject should be
barred from student activities dur
ing the following semester. It was
pointed out that a student who made
a splendid standing in 15 hours and
failed in a one-hour course would
fall under this ruling. Several
other objections were urged and the
northwest conference scholarship re
quirement, which was adopted as a
substitute, says a student to partic
ipate in intercollegiate games must
have passed in at least 12 hours the
previous semester, must be carrying
12 or more hours satisfactorily at
the time of any contest, and must not
have a previous record of more than
eight hours of F. This regulation now
applies to all Oregon student ac
tivities, and a definite list of the ac
tivities meant to be included is to be
submitted at the .next faculty meet
ing.
There was no legislation on the
one-year rule, under which * no
student would be allowed to com
pete for the University until after
a year’s residence. This rule was
recommended to the northwest con
ference for passage, however. The
faculty agreed that the University’s
ultimate policy should provide subor
dination of gate receipts, payment of
athletic directors wholly from Uni-‘
versity funds, and the building up of
intra-mural athletics “so that every
student may be encouraged to take
daily systematic exercise in his fa
vorite sport throughout his college
course.”
Some months ago a faculty com
mittee was appointed to study the
junior wfcek-end problem. Many
faculty members feel the social and
athletic side of junior week-end is
emphasized to the exclusion of other
possible sides, such as a musical fes
tival or intellectual compositions.
The request that the faculty con
sider ‘‘making junior week-end an
interscholastic festival in the broad

purely athletic purposes” was re
