COLONEL LEADER HOME
FROM PUBLICITY TRIP
Visits Tacoma. Camp Lewis. Portland:
Delivers Commencement Andress
at Klamath Falls.
Colonel John Leader returned from
one of the most extensive publicity trips
he has yet taken iu the interest of the
University.
Leaving late week before last, he went
to Tacoma and Camp Lewis on military
business and inspection; he was next
in Portland on business with the 8tat3
Council of Defense, of which he is the
head. A commencement address at
Klamath Falls constituted his next en
gagement, and yesterday he spent in
Medford, delivering talks to the high
school and other organizations. Other
high schools in the southern part of the
state will also be on his itinerary.
According to Karl W. Onthauk, secre
tary to the president, if Colonel Leader
has 48 hours in each of his days he
would still be entirely unable to fill the
engagements for which he is constantly
requested, so popular has he become
with people all over the state. Already
six towns have put in bids for his time
on July 4, and the office is constantly
receiving requests for his services out
over the state.
“He is doing the most excellent prop
aganda work for the war, not only for
the United States but for England as
well,” said Mr. Onthank, and if he had
never accomplished anything else—if he
devoted his entire time to that sort of
thing—he would be more than worth
while for the remarkable good which he
is constantly doing. For the University
he has done uncalculated good.”
¥ J JITS DRUCKER!
IS WAR ZONE WORKER
Communication Received from
Philological Society by
F. $. Dunn, Asking
for Man.
Professor Hopes to Work with
Raymond Robins in
Russia.
Professor A. P. II. Drucker, who dur
ing the past year has been taking Dean
D. W. Morton's plaoe in the school of
commerce, has responded to the call
sent out by the Y. M. C. A. through the
American Philological society for work
ers in the war zone.
Professor F. S. Dunn, head of the
Latin department, received the com
munication from the society, which is
composed of faculty men of the United
Stites interested in languages and lit
erature, asking for recommendations and
he immediately thought of Mr. Drucker
as admirably fitted for the work, both
on account of his knowledge of the Eu
ropean languages and his experience in
social welfare work.
Though nothing definite has been set
tled yet, as it takes time for the cor
respondence and routine work to be
done. Professor Drucker said yester
day that he intends to go if proper ar
rangements on certain points can be
met.
“If I go,” he said, “I presume that I
will be sent to France, but if possible
I should prefer to go to Russia. I am
not sure that any Y. M. C. A. work is
being done there now, though Raymond
Robins is still in Russia doing Red
Cross work. There is nothing better
that I should like to do than work with
him.”
Mr. Robins, who is tv personal friend
of Professor Drucker, comes from Chi
cago wheel- he spent his time and for
the Polish peoples in the tenements,
tune doing social welfare work among
If Professor Drucker cannot go to
Russia, he said that he would prefer
then to go to some of the Slav eoun- j
tries of the Allies in the eastern front,
since he knows their languages and
characteristics.

VKip YEAR
Faculty Committee to Present
Matter of Compulsory Work
in Military Science
Courses.
West Poirters Recommending
Study of Trigonometry
and Geometry,
Faculty officers, Karl Onthank, E. S.
Bates, Dean Walker. Hamilton, ,1. K.
Bovard and Eric Allen of the Univer
sity battalion met with Professor E. E.
DeCou, head of the mathematics depart
ment, yesterday afternoon in Dean Al
len's office to discuss the advisability
of recommending that the faculty make
mathematics one of the required mili
tary courses for next year. At the fac
ulty colloquium a week from next Thurs
day President F. L. Campbell will be
present and the matter can be definitely
settled.
"Mathematics is more fundamental
than anything else if the men desire to
go into the service as an officer,” said
Professor DeCou. ‘‘The well-equipped
in mathematics has a big advantage.”
Math. Essential in Artillery.
If this measure goes through the min
imum amount of math to be required by
the University will probably be college
algebra and trigonometry and especial
attention will be paid to Class A men
and men under draft age. Trigonome
try is vitally essential to an officer in
artillery.
The United States Military Academy
at West Point requires an hour and 155
minutes to be spent in the mathematics
section room each day. Wyville Sheehy
and Robert Montague, both former stu
dents who are now at West Point, say
that it is the most important subject in
the curriculum.
Sheehy Recommends work.
Sheehy says ‘‘Mathematics is the >nll
important subject to be mastered. Thus
far we plebes have gone through very
thorough courses in plane and solid
geometry, algebra and plane and trig
onometry, conic sections and surveying
—and all of this since last September
too.”
The general viewpoint of the faculty
seems to be that the men need the
mathematics and the subject will prob
ably be made compulsory.

Instructor in Violin Will Be
Head of Departmnt in
New Ellison-White
Conservatory.
School Is Under Direction of
William Robinson Boone,
Organist.
Miss Winifred Forbes, instructor in
violin and director of the University or
chestra, has accepted the position of
head of the violin department for next
year in the new Ellison-White Conser
vatory of music, just established iu
Portland under the direction of William
Robinson Boone.

matics, all to be under teachers of rec
ognized ability throughout the country.
Mr. Boone, who will head the school, is
one of the lending organists of tho
Northwest and stands high in musical
circles iu Portland and Oregon.
The bringing of Leopold Godowsky to;
Portland this summer to give a series of I
lectures and classes is the first effort
of the Ellison-White company in sup
port of the furthering of musical educa
tion, and speaks well for its strength,
according to Miss Forbes.
Miss Forbes will go to Portland at
the close of the college year here and
will teach in Mr. Boone’s studio during
the summer.
‘•I dislike to think of leaving my many
friends here and giving up this work
which I have enjoyed so much,” said j
Miss Forbes this morning, “but 1 have
wished for some time that I might work
in a city, where there are more broad
ening influences and for that reason, I
may say, I am glad I am going to take
up this new work.”
No one has been selected to fill Miss
Forbes’ place next year, Dr. .1, ,T. Lands
bury said today, but the appointment
will be announced soon.

Authority to Leave Camp Lewis.
Captain Jacob Kanzler telephoned long
distance to Major Eric \V. Allen yester
day that he had not yet received orders
from Washington giving him authority to
leave Camp Lewis an<l that there was
nothing lie could do to hasten govern
ment action. He seemed anxious to eotne,
Major Allen said, but must await orders
from Washington. No possible date of

BATTALION TO BE IN PARADE
Anyone Not in Line on Memorial Day
Wiil Get Two Cuts.

MONEY FOR WAR FUND i
TO BE MADE AT LUNCHEON
Woman's League Will Serve Cafeteria
Meal at Faculty Picnic
Thursday.
To earn money for the University
women's war fund, the Women's league
of the University, will serve a cafeteria
luncheon Thursday noon to faculty
members at a faculty picnic which will
be held in Hendricks Park.
Dorothy Flegel, president of the
league for next year, and Helene Dela
no, have charge of the luncheon. They
will appoint a committee of five girls
to take charge of buying the food, trans
porting it to the park and serving it.
There will be baked beans at 10 cents
a helping, pork sausages two for a dime,
buns two for a nickel, coffee five cents
a cup. pickles a cent apiece, paper plates
a cent and perhaps sugar and cream
for the coffee at five cents.
According to Dorothy Flegel, a good
meal will not cost more than 115 or 40
cents. This is cheaper than one could
prepare a luncheon at home and besides
saving time and labor by purchasing
lunch from the Women’s league one
will be aiding a good cause.
Id case it rains Thursday, luncheon
will he served at Dr. Ueorge Itobec’s
home where a large porch will serve as
ample shelter from showers.
Practice on New Game Made
Possible by Portland
Club which Sends
Paraphernalia.
English Sport to Be Last Event
for Year; Baseball and
Track Men May Play.
Dean Walker yesterday received word
from a member of the old Portland
cricket club saying that the club had
shipped its cricket paraphernalia to the
University to be used in a cricket game
between University teams in the near
future. Conch Walker has not received
notice of the arrival of the shipment in
Eugene yet but expects to receive it
within the next few days. Practice in
the art of playing cricket and the se
lection of two teams to play the* exhi
bition game will begin with the arrival
of the apparatus and the return of Col
onel Leader, according to Coach Walker.
It was iifion the suggestion of Col
onel Leader several weeks ago that
cricket will he introdui ed into Univer
sity sports. As In' is practically the
only man on the eninpus who fully un
derstands the game his presence on the
practice field will lie necessary ns the
sport will be practically new to every
one of the men who will turn oait to
make the teams.
Men Urged to Answer Call.
It is probable, according to Couch
Walker, that the two teams will he se
lected from this season’s varsity and
frosh baseball teams as they are prac
tically the only two athletic groups now
in school and as the men of the teams
nre in better athletic trim than others.
Every man in the University is urged to
answer the call for cricket players, how
ever. The game calls for 11 men on
each team.
Colonel Leader has written to Eng
land for cricket paraphernalia for per
manent use at the University but as the
shipment could not reach the Univer
sity before school would be out the Port
land cricket club members donated the
use of their equipment to the Univer
sity. The club is now inactive but in
past years was a live organization and
cricket games were prominent on the
sport program of the Rose City.
Sport Critics Comment.
News that University athletes were
going to play cricket has received com
ment from sport critics from all parts
of the state so that it is probable that
the exhibition game which will be staged
in the near future will attract a large
crowd. School athletes are anxiously
awaiting the arrival of the cricket ap
paratus so they can begin practicing the
English sport. The cricket game will
be the last event on the University sport
program this year as both baseball and
track seasons have been completed and
the Women’s field day was held last
Saturday.

1918 Annual Now on Press Will
Be Distributed June 3.
Holdup of Cuts at Engravers*
Cause of Delays, Says
Helen Brenton.
The long-looked for 1018 Oregana Is
lit last in sight and Monday is the day
set for its arrival. With four members
of its staff now in the service, all the
work has fallen upon one or two work
era. “The printers,” said Helen Bren
ton, editor, “are working full time and
1 am sure the hook Oregana will he off
the press this week.”
Sample copies of the Oregana will be
taken to the different houses on the
campus Sunday, and Monday 100 copies
will be placed in the Co-op for distribu
tion. “There are ,‘100 pages printed
now,” said Jack Duudore, business man
ager, “the remaining 100 pages can eas
ily be printed this week. The feature
and military sections are among the 300
printed pages.”
In the absence of Dwight Wilson from
the campus, .Tuck Dundore will act as
distribution manager. Dwight is the
fourth member of the Oreguna staff to
leave for the service. The other three
were Jimmie Vance, (leorge Cook and
Harold Newton Harold Grey will act
as assistant distribution munager.
The Oregana could not be printed for
Junior Week end this year because
many of the cuts were held up at the
engravers in Portland.
