    DEPARTMENT MEETINGS
IS PflOPOSED PLAN
Monthly Assembly of Majors in
Each Department Suggested
as Regular Work.
A plan to devote an hour each month
to a joint meeting of all the classes of
one department so that students may be
come better acquainted, and compare
their work witli that of others of the
same department, has been proposed by
Professor K. YV. Allen, head of the De
partment of Journalism.
Suggest Major Students Get Together
It has been suggested that all the ma
jor students of one department get to
gether in joint meeting and listen to
short speeches, pertaining to their work,
and that some time be spent in open dis
cussion in class. Every one will be ex
pected to attend these conferences, and
if the student does not care to attend
the meeting of the major class another
may be chosen, but every one is ex
pected to attend one meeting each
month anil will receive two semester
hours credit in this work for the four
years in college.
Professor Allen’s plan is being sup
ported by Profeasors 1). YV. Morton,
dean of the School of Commerce, E. E.
Lawrence, head of the architectural de
partment, E. W. Hope, dean of the
school of law and President P. L. ('amp
bell.

vor of a joint meeting of all classes and
allied classes of one department. 1 will

Tuesday in Ouild hall when all the class
es in journalism as well as President

tended to short speeches on good sports
manship in tile home, in newswriting and

PAGEANT IDEA IS
RAPIOLY TAKING FORM
Students Will be Called On to
Take Prominent Part in Writ
ing and Producing.
I’liins for presenting an historical and
symbolical pageant on the University
campus next June are rapidly assuming
definite form. Within a week students
will be asked to help write the play and
Dr. K. S, Bates’ provisional scenario
mitline of it will be published. I)r. Bates
is at the head of the rhetoric department.
Students are expected to take the
most prominent ‘part from now on in
both writing and producing the pageant.
The matter has been in the hands of
members of the faculty until now but it
is to be definitely understood according
to Professor W. P. G. Thatcher, of the
Bnglish department, who is at present
general manager of the affair, that the
production is to be a student and fac
ulty concern of state-wide interest, in
which the students will participate
largely.
The idea of giving a pageant origin
ated with Mrs. George T. Gerlinger, of
the board of regents. Her plan was to |
make it a state affair. Some of the first
committees were in favor of giving it
on the river’s edge north of Skinner’s
butte. These suggestions have been
amended and the present plan is to pro
duce the pageant on the campus south
west of Heady hall, with the fringe of
trees there for a background. The au
dience will congregate on the field where
soccer practice is carried on now. Giv
ing the production on the campus will
make it possible to use a steam curtain.
As a pre-requisite to the whole con
cern. the old order of Commencement
week must be reversed.
The plan is to make the play definitely
i self-supporting. There is no reason, the
committee thinks, why an admission
charge of fifty cents should not cover all
expenses if the weather is good. A sub
scription list of guarantors will be pro
vided, however, in case unfavorable
weather prevents a normal attendance.
This, it is expected, will receive wide
enough circulation so that the tax on
each individual will be small. This ar
rangement is simply to prevent any dan
ger of going in debt, and it is not sup
posed that paying these subscriptions will
In1 necessary.
A complete musical setting is includ
ed in (lie plans. The orchestra is to be
partly made up of professional musicians.
“The pageant is conceived in the same
spirit as is the Pendleton round-up. It
is not only a play,” Mr. Thatcher says,
“but a big social undertaking with the
whole University co-operating and con
tributing its best genius to that end.”
The matter will be placed before the
students immediately.
RELIGIOUS CENSUS
IS TAKEN ANNUALLY
Tin1 Christian associations onoli year
coinliict a religions census of the students
in order to determine the number in the
I'niverxity of each denomination. They
also stimulate attendance at Sunday
school and church service, co-operating
with the ministers in every way possible.
The V. M.-O. A. maintains association
rooms in the basement of Heady hall.
Here .1. I). Foster, the secretary, may
lie found during all hours of the day
ready to assist the students in any pos
sible way. Thirty or forty members
daily visit these rooms.
Five hundred hand books have been
distributed around the campus to new
students as well as old. Those books
have furnished much information to the
new student.
“Co-op” Amendment
(Continued front Pago One.)
to stiuhnt body standing, and a canvass
of the campus for the purpose of ascer
tait iny how many students would be em
ployed in a campus industry were eonsid
i red by the council.
The council rescinded its former action
mo amending that the student body tax
be made voluntary. The present consti
tution is out of date, however, since it
may be construed to provide for a vol
ant,,.',\ t’x. while, by action of the board
of regents, the tax has been compulsory
for twelve years. The new amendment
will bring the matter once more before
the student body. The matter was left
in the hatntr of the constitution revision
committee.
Virginia 1‘eterseu, representing the
Student Body Affairs committee, pro
posed that the council devise some plan
by which more student interest in debate
may be aroused.
"After February there will be no more
closed dates," she said. " Phis will lessen
the present interest in debate. We feel
that something should be done.”
A committee composed of Karl Becke. I
Beatrice l.oekc. Wallace Kokin, l.ucile [
Watson and llettry llowe. was appointed j
to find a plan.
The council decided to recommend to I
the athletic council that the girls' hockey
team be recognized as a student body ac- J
tivity. so that in case a return game with
O. A. I', is scheduled, the girls may have
expenses paid.
Acting President txuck appointed sup
plementary members to the committee on
securing a campus industry. Leslie
Too e. Merlin Batiey and Wilmot Foster
were chosen. This committee is asked (
Six Months Guaranteed Half Hose for Men
"" -. .
When you buy hose—don’t let the six
month’s guarantee fill all the requirements.
To make hose that will wear eix months is not a difficult
matter. Use materials coarse enough and strong enough
and you’ll get hose that will wear all right.
But such hose will not be much on look9. To get fine,
thin hose that will wear for six months you must use
superlative fine materials.
Only the highest grade materials are used m
They’re light in weight—fine
in quality. Fast, rich, hygienic
dyes—no crocking.
INDESTRUCTIBLE HOSIERY

Guaranteed for six months by
the makers—the largest knit
