BE BUSK BACK
FROM SPOKANE
Oregon Professor Attended Teachers’
Association Meeting Repre
senting University
Dr. B. W. DeBusk, professor of sec
on day education, has just returned
from Spokane, Washington, where he
attended the Inland Empire Teachers’
association as a representative from
the University. The association was
well attended, according to Dr. De
Busk, about 1,400 people being present.
Oregon was represented by the super
intendents of the schools of the cities
of the state.
“It is intended,’’ said Dr. DeBusk,
“to make the association the important
educational meeting of the year for
the northwest.”
DeBusk in Charge
Dr. DeBusk was in charge of the de
partment of education and pliychology,
and chairman of the committee on edu
cational measurements. Amplification
of the system of educational measure
ments was generally considered. It
was decided to put the departments of
education and psychology in charge of
the educational measurement work de
voted to research, according to Dr.
Busk.
Mental Measurements Taken
These reports were made of work
done in educational measurements, said
Dr. DeBusk. These were the status of
spelling in the schools of Washington,
the initial phases of child learning, and
the application of educational measure
ments in the grading and promotion of
the child in school. Reports on this
work will be published in leading edu
cational magazines.
The work to be taken up at the next
meeting of the association, according
to Dr. DeBusk, will deal with a pos
sible increase in the salaries of the
teachers and the raising of the stand
ard of the teaching profession.
A LITTLE RHYME BUCOLIC
Describes the April Frolic, the Co-eds’
Yearly Rollick; Men Can’t Go
There’s nothing diabolic, about this
April Frolic; it’s just a little rollick,
to which the men can’t go.
It’s just a fun-fest annual, where
co-eds take their spaniel, ’stead of a
tag-tail man-you-all, if you should
want to know.
Coming back to earth, the fair re
porter proceeds as follows:)
The locks on the windows of the
men’s gymnasium are being re-en
forced, hinges are receiving extra nails,
and lumber is making its appearance
for the purpose of a stage. Within the
next few days all w'ill be in readiness
for the biggest co-ed event of the year,
April Frolic, scheduled for next Satur
day evening. Everything from judges
to ice cream is in waiting. The secre
tary of Women’s League is prepared to
award the prize of five dollars to the
best and most originally dressed cos
tumer and two dollars and a half to
the second best.
The program for the evening is to be
of the general circus variety, according
to Helen McDonald, who is chairman
of the stunt committee. It is guaran
teed to take every one back to the
good old days of pinafores and pig
tails and pink lemonade and peanuts.
The various organizations are sched
uled to appear in the following order:
Eutaxian, Alpha Phi, Hendricks hall,
Pi Beta Phi, Delta Gamma, Gamma Phi
Beta, Kappa Alpha Theta, Kappa Kap
pa Gamma, Chi Omega, Delta Delta
Delta and Y. W. C. A. All are working
overtime with rehearsals in order to
win the cup which is offered for the
best stunt. The Tri Delta captured the
trophy last year.

ALUMNI ACTIVE
FOR BUILDING
Portland End of Campaign for $100,
000 Will Be Carried On
By Graduates
A new executive committee for the
women’s building campaign to be car
ried on in Portland among the alumni
was appointed last Saturday when the
alumni met and choose K. K. Kubli,
president of the alumni association,
Mrs. Alice Benson Beach, and Fletcher
Linn to act as executives. This com
mittee will act as advisors for the
actual campaign in Portland and will
have an open office there.
Next Saturday noon, the alumni will
meet in the women’s dining room of)
the Portland Chamber of Commerce
and work out plajis for the campaign.
It is probable that each alumni and
alumnus of the University will be
asked to make a contribution to the
fund. No definite plans will be adopt
ed, however, without the seal of ap
proval from the executive committee.
The campaign in the state outside
of Portland is under the direction of
Mrs. Hoy T. Bishop, chairman of the
Federation of Women’s clubs. Mrs.
Bishop, recently of Pendleton, is now
living in Portland.
The latest gifts of $1,000 and $500 to
the fund were made by Mrs. C. C. Beek
man and her daughters, of Jacksonville,
Oregon, and her son, C. C. Beekman, of
Portland. Mrs. Beekman is the widow
of C. C. Beekman, who gave the Uni
versity a sum of $16,000, the interest
of which is applied to the oratory prize,
offered every year.

hard and often and meeting it with
the best of the candidates. There may
be several changes in the prospects be
fore the next ten days are past and by
that time things will have settled so
that it will be almost a safe bet as to
who will play and where.
Multnomah Game Wanted
Dean H. Walker is out for a game
with Multnomah club for next Satur
day. The clubbers are not eager to
play this week-end but do want- to
clash with the varsity on the 19th in
Portland. Chemawa may also get in
for a game during the next week or I
two. If Walker does not sign up an
outside game for Saturday he will,
probably bill a contest between the,
j varsity and the frosh, in which event
‘ ‘ Shy ’ ’ will have a good chance to
look the men over and get a real line
on them.
The University of Washington is get
ting ready for a great season, with a
pretty good loking buneli lined up. I

fifteen years ago was one of the Wash
ington ball players and since has had
a couple of trips up into the big show—
once in each league. Among old men
that he will have under his direction
are: Taylor, Smith, Chamberlain, Lord
ner and Beem.
The University of Washington and
Oregon clash for the first time in Eu
gene on Junior Week-end and the two
games, which will be played at that |
time, should prove the real contest.
EAST SIDE IS INTERESTED
Dr. Straub, Back from Trip, Pleased
With Oregon’s Prospects
Interest in the University of Ore
gon and much favorable comment
about the institution, was found by
Dean John Straub, who last week made
a trip to eastern Oregon and Idaho,
where lie addressed students in the
high schools upon the value of a col
lege education.
“The sentiment throughout the state .
is very friendly and cordial,’’ Dr.
Straub said. “People are beginning
to realize now that Oregon graduates
are making good.’’
Inquiries about life at the University
and the courses offered were numerous,
Dr .Straub said, and from present in
dications there is scarcely a town in
eastern Oregon which he visited but
what will send at least one student
to the University next year.
“I feel sure that unless times change
materially,’’ he said, “that we will
have not less than 1600 students next
fall. ’ ’
Besides 15 Oregon towns, Dr. Straub
visited Boise, Nampa, Caldwell, Fruit
land, Weiser and Payette, all in Idaho,
and in nearly ali these schools he
found at least one U. of O. graduate
teaching. “These teachers,’’ he said,
“still have a very warm place in their
hearts for the University of Oregon.
That a number of students will come
to the University from Idaho is the j
expectation of Dr. Straub.
