OREGON’S NEW POSITION During the last two years Oregon has received honors and earned a reputation outside its own state as no other uni versity in the west. This year Oregon has grown to u new position among western educational institutions. Much of the credit goes to the sever al Oregon instructors, Chemists, and re search workers who have turned down larger salaries from eastern schools to continue their work at Oregon because they like this I'niversity and its spirit u student, body and faculty. Oregon’s new standing in American I'oliege athletcis also is now recognized. A foundation for this was gradually built at Oregon by continually success ful football teams under Bezdck and the great track men placed in th coast conferences for Oregon by “Bill" Hay ward with the result that Oregon was represented at the last Olympic games with a representation above th average for a western I’niversity. Before that time eastern men had not thought of tlie westerns us competitors. When Oregon followed this gradually built reputation by the defeat of Pennsylvan ia’s winning teutu from the east at. Pasa dena, lemon yellow fame spread and the ’‘lemon yellow" peril was no longer eon firmed to coast conferences. This year, however, conditions in Uni versity life have changed. Oregon is still holding her now niche in American University life. ■ Acting in Ids cnpncty an Heeretury treasurer of (be American Council of Kdiiculiou, u position given hi in ok ii re sult of Oregon’s new position unit be cause this very position of his I nvers ity was a lasting reeinmemlation of Ills ability among Anierieau luversty heads, lTesdenl Campholl, of Orgon, was one of the leaders, who frameil ami eausoil the military ilepartuieut of the l nit oil States to adopt for HlH) American col eges the present Students' Army Train ing Cutups one of which is located at Oregon. All last summer the eyes of American 1 niversilies were fixed upon President Campbell ami ins few associates in Washington. That itself was a distine lion alike for a western I'uiversity pres ideal and for a westru t uivorsity. Hut Oregon has gone farther. i'u der the plan for the S A. '1'. C. which President Campbell helped work out, the S. A. T. C. unit at Oregon lias achieved n tgnitiou as a model for the other uni vt rsities of this section. Tills latest tribute to Oregon came jistcrday through the \isit of Chancel I., lad We'd i . Klliotl of the t 'uivernity ot Montana, featl of the education! auc tion ol the f- A T.

He gave warm com mendation to all connected with the Oregon organisation. Mighty Oregon! WHY UQ TO COLLEGE? Why dhl you come to Oregon? To get married? To study Military Tactiea? To have a good time? To learn how to make a big income? Or are you after knowledge? You won’t be disappointed if you are after any of these, but there are some other things to remmber. The citizens of Oregon made possible your oppor tunity and demand useful men and wo men from the University. To be a real- j ly good citizen it is ncessary to be more j than a .highly trained, efficient work- I man. A man or woman is not fully de veloped until he has lenrnfed through contact with other pople, what sympathy means, until he can see the other fel low’s view point. If you do not learn to mix at college your chances later will be greatly dimin ished. The four years at college arc four years of living. The standards set at college will be held through life. To deepen sympathy is to improve judgment. With an increase of knowl edge comes the realization of the worth of people. Don’t neglect tho study but get into student activities. Dive while you are going to Oregon. H. B. 1 Directory Shows 23 Instructors of Last Year’s Staff Missing. This year’s faculty directory is being compiled by Miss Charlie Fenton, clerk to President 1*.

The sand bags are needed for building trenches, said Colonel Leader, who de clared that t!ie women of the University would be performing a real patriotic duty in making the bags.
