TWENTY-FIVE VISIT
SUITE IHISTITSTIOHIS
Class in Social Agencies Takes
Trip to Salem Yesterday.
Describe Adventure as Inter
esting, Instructive and
Worth While.
Interesting, instructive, and well
worth their time and money, was the trip
of the 25 students who made the journey
to the state institutions at Salem, in the
as part of the work conducted by Dean
Elizabeth Fox in her course in Social
Agencies.
The class left Eugene on the 7:35 a.
m. Oregon Electric and arrived in the
Capitol City at 9:45. Miss Fox met the
party at the depot, and all were bundled
into seven machines which were placed
a; the disposal of the class for the entire
day. The first stop was made at the Deaf
school where under the supervision of
Mr. E. S. Tillinghast, over 90 children,
varying in age from 6 to 22. are learning
to speak, write, and to make chairs, ta
bles, cabinets, bird houses, and various
fcrms of fancy work and knitted gar
ments.
The state hospital in conjunction with
the newly built receiving ward, for wo
men, are models of cleanliness and effi
ciency. Fifteen hundred and seventy-one
inmates are held in these hugs buildings.
The criminally insane, 20 in number,
paced the floor behind heavy iron bars.
Inmates do all the baking supervised
by an experienced cook. The women’s re
ceiving hospital contains all the latest
appliances for surgery as well as electric
soothers for colds, patent shower baths
and numerous other contrivances.
Four hundred men are in the state
penitentiary. The class saw some in a
ball game in the yari, others at work in
the flax mill, laboring in the fields and
at various other occupations. A touch
of real pathos was experienced by all,
when the prison band of 20 pieces, arose
and played the national anthem with
much fervor and feeling. Dingy cells, in
adequate fire protection, and poor venti
lation were only a few of the arguments
brought forth by Warden Murphy in his
appeal for a new penitentiary.
Freedom, absence of armed guards and
prison stripes were the outstanding fea
tures of penitentiary life as viewed by
the outsider.
The Tubercular Hospital is a six mile
ride from the penitentiary. Close to 00
patients, including men and women of
all ages, are housed in the near-open
air hospital. The state owns a farm of
1200 acres within the proximity of the
hospital which is worked by 300 of the
less afflicted inmates of the insane hos
pital.
The Boy's Training school is all that
the name implies. Here some 135 boys
varying in ages from 10 to 18 are beiug
schooled in the class room and trained
in industries as few more fortunate boys
are. At one end of the building youths
were busy with cobbler’s tools, close by
several boys were busy working sewing
machines, making garments, and uni
forms. and still others were engaged in
bread making.
The lirl's Training school and the
institution for the Feeble-Minded are
within a stone's throw of each other.
The form r contains about 50 girls com
mitted for delinquency and other crimes.
The latter has about 400 inmates, most
of them utterly helpless, both physically
and mentally. Marguerite Rankin, a
graduate of Oregon in the class of 1014,
is an attendant at the school for the
Feeble-Minded.
The last institution visited was the
Blind School which has 50 patients. Sev
eral selections including piano and or
gan solos, and recitations were given by
the blind.
Miss Bertha Dorris, an alumna of Ore
gon and former Eugene police matron,
conducted the class on their trip through
the state institutions. She is now con
nected with the Girl’s Industrial school
at Salem.
Junior Week-End
(Continued from page one)
ion McClain, Dean Elizabeth Fox and
Roswell Dosch.
■ The Junior class float, in ehnrge of
Leonard Floan, is a secret scheme; but
it is to be strictly within the limits and
spirit of the entire week-end.
Shy Huntington ho'ds sway over a
crew of Freshmfn who will be marched
to the top of Skinner's in squad forma
tion early Friday morning to give the
famous “O” its eighth annual yellow
coating. There have been other yellow
coats, but only to cover the smirch of
orange which sometimes appeared be
fore the O. A. C. "football tangles.
The boys will mix their own paint,
and for good and faithful service will
be duly awarded their O’s, applied in the
usual place. Brick Mitchell, 5oe Denn,
Chuck Tisdale and Clarke Thompson will
help keep order in the ranks.
Two bread lines doling out food to
1000 hungry people doesn’t sound much
like a quiet, homey Junior week-end,
yet that is but half the number served
Homecoming day last fall. Seven hundred
and fifty will be students; 250 will be
alumni and guests. The usual things and
then some, will be served in huge lots
from each booth, and the band will play
during the luncheon hour.
In fact, the blind is going to feature
strongly in things this year; it’s to be
everywhere at once, and null play for
everything but the Prom and the paint
ing of the ■4*0.”
At 1:30 Friday the Junior Week-end
parade leaves the Administration build
ing, the newest feature inaugurated. Still
more new' ideas will be introduced and
divulged later, and it will be one of the
biggest things ever staged.

One of the features of the parade will
be the incorporation of the women this
year in the form of a Red Cross corps.
Every woman in college is urged to come
to the campus luncheon in white or light
dresses. After the luncheon they will be
furnished with red crosses by the girls
of the parade committee. Every co-ed is
expected to take part in the parade this
year as well ns the men. If the women
have guests they cannot leave let them
put on light clothes and march with the
girls, say the committee. Every woman
out. is the slogan.
Of the Prom Saturday night. Kenneth
Bartlett, general chairman, and Kenneth
Moores, class president, have this to
say: “The men aren’t getting dates the
way they should.” It's their one great
complaint, and whether its war or some
thing else that's responsible for the
situation, they want it remedied. Ken (
Bartlett says:
“If the fellows are afraid of being call
ed out for military duty any time, and
are waiting on that account, the girls will
excuse them in case they are called.
There will be a lot of guests at the fra
ternity houses, and alumnae at the soror
ity houses; everybody will probably be
going. But those dates ought to be fixed
up.”
Medals and cups won by the various
fraternities at track and baseball, and
the canoe fete prize, will be awarded at
the Prom; the glee clubs will sing, Hyde’s
ten-piece orchestra will play, flowers
are tabu and the tickets are $1. The
Junior sponsors think it’s a good combi
nation.
Sunday of the week-end will probably
be a day of open-house and informal
greetings over the campus.

Senior examinations will not he clim
inated this year at the University of
Oregon. At a faculty meeting Thursday
lhe committee on senior exams reported
that the present disorganized condition
of the University made it inadvisable to
discontinue the finals for the seniors.
The committee felt that since those
seniors who have dropped regular work
to enroll in military courses would have
to take final examinations in the latter,
which are for the most part lecture
courses, it would be difficult to discrim
inate between these and regular courses.
Also, since the Oregon pageant has been
postponed, extra pressure from that
source will not be felt during the exam
inations.
The report of the committee was ac
cepted and no change will be made in
the examination requirements this year.
Petitions from students wishing to
withdraw from the University to engage
in agricultural and military activities
were brought before the faculty, and a
committee of which Dean E. W. Allen of
the school of journalism is chairman, will
consider the petitions and make an early
report.
Other faculty business included the
passing of a new English requirement
for entrance to the University. Next
September Freshmen Will be required to
hnve complete three years of English,
preferably one year and a half of Eng
lish composition and a like amount of.
English literature. Also a faculty com
mittee was appointed to report on the
attitude to be taken by the University of
Oregon iu applying to the Carnegie
foundation for the pension of retired
University professors for a fund to be
placed at Oregon.
DISCUSS FIELD DAY PLANS
Women’s Athletic Asoclatlon Hears Re
ports From Department Heads.
Plans for a big field day to be held
May 25 were discussed at a meeting of
the Women’s Athletic association held in
Dr. Schmidt’s lecture room at 5 o’clock
this evening.
Eyla Walker, president of the associa
tion, had charge of the meeting and the
heads of the different sports talked on
the ways and means of holding the big
event for women and what the different
trophies will go for. The chief speakers
were Mary Chambers, canoeing; Caroline
Alexander, tennis; Gladys Wilkins, golf;
Ada Hall, archery; Esther Furuset, base
ball. and Claire Warner, track.
The last baseball game between the
different women’s fraternity houses and
clubs will be played on that day to de
cide the championship.
The women will have to turn out in
large numbers in order to furnish enough
material to make the affair a success and
they must do so immediately with less
than three weeks to get in shape for the
meet, is the verdict given out by Miss
Mabel Louise Cummings, director of the
women’s gymnasium department.
