Phone 62 y. m. is m Membership So Far Almost Equal to That of Last Year. Martin Nelson Gives Seven Reasons Why Organization Should Be Supported. The University Y. M. C. A. has a mem bership of 150 at the present time, de clared Martin Nelson, chairman of the membership committee. This is only ten less than the number for the entire year of 1015-10, so Mr. Nelson has hopes of making a new membership record this year. A campaign for members will be con ducted throughout the year, and Mr. Nelson gives the following reasons why the men on the campus should support this organization:. 1. It is an institution of permanency. -. The great benefits, which are de rived from the Y. M. C. A. employment bureau arc known to all; it is getting odd jobs for a large number of the students. 3. A membership card of the Univer sity Y. M. C. A., which costs only $1.00 for a year, entitles the holder to all the privileges of the city Y. M. C. A.’s throughout the state. Mr. Nelson cited one instance where a student had the use of a Y. M. C. A. swimming tank all summer because of his University membership. 4. Oregon has a reputation for large membership in University Y. M. C. A.’s which should be kept up. We do not want other state universities to get ahead of us in this respect. 5 The Bible classes which are con ducted by the Y. M. C. A. are another benefit to be derived from a member ship in the organization. (5. From time to time during the schood year the Y. M. C. A. brings prominent men here to speak to the men of the - University on various topics of interest to men, such as personal hygi ene. Naturally, money is needed to do this work, and the more it has the more efficient the organization can become. 7. The Y. M. C. A. is also a factor in the social life of the .University, as it gives various parties during the year, such as the stag mix which was held last month. This campaign is not to be carried on with a big noise, but consistently and all the time, said Mr. Nelson, who thinks that better results can be obtained from these methods. NO LANGUAGE CHANGES Requirements for Graduation Are Not Altered by Faculty Committee. A misunderstanding has prevailed among the students in regard to the pro posed revision of the language require ments for graduation according to Karl Onthank, secretary to President Camp bell. Mr. Onthank saya that because a com mittee of faculty was appointed known as the committee on language require ments, to look into the matter, the students supposed that a change was to be made. The committee considered special cases only, those in whic!. the students were advanced in ago and had done most of the required work toward grad uation many years ago when there were no language requirements and were now completing work for their degrees. There has been no change in the lang uage requirements for undergraduate students toward graduation. This re quirements calls for twelve semester hours of foreign language work to be done the first two years.

The freshman bonfire on the night of Friday, November 3, will furnish an op portunity for the accumulated “pep,” “jaz” and “Oregon fight” of the students to expend itself in support of the team. This will he the first strictly pre game rally of the year. Freshmen are eagerly peering into various nooks and crannies in an effort to find something that may be used for the fire. Ned Fowler, chairman of the bonfire com mittee promises the “biggest fire yet.” A huge framework of telephone poles will be built and the space between the poles will be filled with shingles, tar, boards, special imported wood slabs from Springfield, oil, and other combus tables known to the freshman bonfire architects. “Only on. more thing is needed,” said Fowler, “and that is the support of every one in the class in both spirit and work."
