GOVERNOR WANTS BRIGADE
Asks Col. Leader to Unite 28 Lane
County Home Guard Companies.
Governor James Withyoombe is per
feoting plana for forming the L’S home
guard companies in lame county into
a brigade, to he under the command of
Lieutenant Colonel John Leader. Gov

to get the companies together. He wrote
the governor, however, that he would at
tempt the review if he wished.
The brigade will be the ofieial organi

010 DEBITE SOCIETY
TO BE JPIZEO
1 Philogians Will Meet Monday to
Discuss Plans for Re
mainder of the
Year.
All Interested in Forensics Are
Urged to Be Present; Will
Develop Varsity.
The Phiiognia Literary Society which
died late in 1910 promises to be res
urrected next Monday afternoon when a
group of men interested in debate and
oratory will meet in Professor R. W.
Prescott’s room at 4 o’clock and will
reorganize on the campus a society
which will have its object the training
' of those who have an ambition to de
bate.
That debate has this year made more
headway and progress than for several
years past, is the opinion expressed by
Professor Prescott. It is shown in the
greater crowds which attend the de
bates and a more lively and more wide
spread interest among the students, and
to each student to whom Mr. Prescott
has mentioned the project he has met
with a hearty response. Walter Myers,
William Hazeltiue, KKonnoth Arm
strong, Ralph Ilolzman, Varsity debat
ors; Abe Rosenberg, Varsity orator and
Lee Bartholomeu and Day Bailey, al
ternates, have all expressed themselves
favorably to a new Philogian society
and Mr. Prescott said that probably
the society will not he closed to anyone
who desires to participate as an active
member, though at the present time
they are not looking for numbers but
interest.
Training Is Valuable.
The value of debate as a training for
Tnen in public affairs is shown by the
men of Oregon, who were members of j
the former Philogian society when Mr. !
Prescott attended the University. Most
of the paiblic men of today ho said had
at some time received a part of their
training in a debate society. Men from
The Philogean Society alone, as he re
called them are, John Veatch, an at
torney of Portland, Francis Galloway,
an attorney of The Dalles. Henry Me
KKiuney, regent of the University and
member of the legislature, Allen Eaton,
member of the legislature for tlieh past
twelve years, Earl Kilpatrick, director
of the extension division and head of
the Northwest Red Cross; Dean Collins,
poet and journalist, Karl Onthank, sec- !
rotary to the president of the Univer- I
sity; Raphael Geisler, American consul
to Switzerland and Alfred Powers, ns.
sistunt director of the extension divis
ion.
To Have Practice Debating.
“The purpose of the society.” Mr. i
I’reseott said “will be to give the stu- 1
dent the laboratory work in debating
which it is difficult to get in regular
class work, since class work is nes
essarily an imposed task while the
society work will be voluntary.”
Such an organization, Mr. Prescott
explained, will increase the intellectual
activity on the campus and help to
swing the colego life away from the
criticism given it throughout the state
that the 1'niversity is merely a finishing
school centering around athletics. Bet
ter material from which to select de
bate teams adds another very material
value to the debate society.
instruction is the same as that given
the young men who expect soon to be
called to the colors. There are two
companies of the co-ed soldiers being
drilled by cadet officers in the elemen
tary infantry drill regulations. The
girls do not expect to be called to the
firing line, but are taking the military
training partly for the sake of the ex
cellent physical training it offers, and,
more particularly, to express their de
termination to win the war through “a
military decision” rather than by more
pacific measures.—\V. S. C. Evergreen.
