CO-OPERATION
The greatest demand in America now
is for trained men and women. This
means the college people of the land.
It is the privilege of every student at
Oregon to get the training which will
fit him for tho most valuable service
to his country. Tho period for na
tional servico, instead of just closing,
is opening up bigger than ever.
But in ordor to servo it is necessary
to know how to work with other peo
ple. College people aro naturally in
dividualists. The career impulse is so
strong that they often undertake to
satisfy personal ambitions heedless of
the effect it mny have on others.
But in order to serve it is necessary
to know how to work with other people.
College people are naturally individ
ualists. The career impulse is so
strong that they often undertake to
satisfy personal ambitions heedless of
the efeet it may have on others.
As long as any student is enrolled
at the University of Oregon, his, first
business is <o push every endeavor
toward a bigger and better Oregon.
Team work is fundamental and a most
important part of college training is
learning how to work with other poo-j
pie. This necessitates the ability to
appreciate the work of those associated
with you. It is hard to hold a differ
once of opinion with those whom you
regard highly. It is sometimes difl'i
cult to decide where open mindedness
ends in the process of getting the
other fellow’s viewpoint.
Details of “how it should be done’’
need not be given too much concern
if the “big idea” is a better and big
ger Oregon.
I'niversity students have proven
main times that they can cooperate in
any plan for the best interests of their
school.
THOSE WAR WORK PLEDGES
During the United War Work ('am
puign last fall at the l:niversity the
students pledged $5000 of which only
$1*500 has been paid. Time was given
for payments to l>o made but the time
first set is up and more than half of
the money is yet to eome in.
Next Tuesday, April 15, has been as
signed as the last possible date of pay
meat and all money should be in by
that time.
The University of Oregon sent in
the amount of the student pledges as
the amount that would be paid toward
the support of the War Work and when
the students fall down on their pledges
they throw down their University.
Another thing that should be taken
into consideration is that students are
not asked this year for any money to
ward the support of the Y. M. O. A.
ns the campus received government
harking for the erection of the llut
and its maintenance.
The word of an Oregon man or
woman should be sufficient credentials,
so on with the money for the pledges!
PIONEER STATUE
TO ARRIVE SOON
Work of Noted Sculptor, A. P. Proctor,
Will be Set Up as Soon as
It Arrives
At last the statue of “The Pioneer,”
the work of A. Phimister Proctor, which
is a present to the University from
Joseph N. Teal, of Portland, is in sight,
although strong ficjid glasses are neces
sary in order to distinguish its fea
tures for it is still miles away in an
express train. According to Karl On
thank, secretary to the president, how
ever, it will arrive in Kugene any day,
since it has been enroute for a month
from Rhode Island, where it was cast
in bronze.
“ ‘The Pioneer’ will be set up as soon
as it arrives,” said Mr. Onthank, “and
it will be unveiled with appropriate
ceremonies, perhaps during Junior
Week-End.” Mr. Proctor will be on
the campus soon after the arrival of
the statue and will direct the setting
up. It is to be placed between Friend
ly hall and the Library, facing Thir
teenth street.
In Memory of Pioneers
As the title suggests, the statue is to
honor the Oregon pioneer, who, accord
ing to Mr. Teal, “saved the west for
this country.” He wishes it placed on
the Oregon campus to be an inspiration
to the youth of Oregon.
Mr. Teal expressed his purpose in
presenting the statue to the University
in a letter to President P. L. Campbell,
which said: “The Pioneer is a mem
orial which it seems to me should stand
on the campus of our great institution
of learning, the University of Oregon,
where for years to come the rising gen
erations of Oregon will have before
them a reminder of those to whom they
owe every opportunity they enjoy.”
Oregon Trapper Model
At the request of Mr. Teal, Mr. Proc
tor started his work in the Spring of
1917, taking for his model an Eastern
Oregon trapper. The statue is done in
the heroic size, nine feet in height and
shows a pioneer of the real western
typo, dressed in Buckskin clothes and
wearing a flowing beard.
Mr. Proctor was on the campus in
February to select the rock to be used
as the base for the statuo. He is now
in California working on “The Indian
Scout,” which will be placed in the
civic center in Denver, Colorado.
TENNIS COURTS PLANNED
More OroundB May be Provided for
Players by Committee
Plans for two now concrete tennis
courts to bo constructed in the near
future are being made by the intra
mural sports committee, of which Pro
fessor K. E. DoCou is the chairman,
and Miss Mabel Cummings, Professor
It. W. Prescott and Dean Walker are
members. The decision rests with the
board of regents, which will have to
vote the funds before the plans can be
carried out.
If built the two new courts will be
near the present concrete one, one to
be directly north and one to the west.
The committee also hopes to have the
upper part of the drill shed fixed up
by next fall to provide a place for a
handball court, squash court, bowling
alley, and floor for indoor golf.
NKW TUN MIS COURTS URGED
To th(> Emerald:
The University has at present one
cement tennis courts and four dirt
courts for the use of the students. The
girls taking gym, freshman and
soph mores mostly, have classes on the
flirt courts practically all of Monday,
Wednesday and Friday mornings and
afternoons. They take the cement
court Cfi-iy time the Varsity or Fresh
man teams are net on it. Except for
Tuesdays and Thursdays when only two
classes meet. Students not on the
teams or in the gym. classes have no
convenient hours to play.
This is not fair to them, and the old
courts at Kincaid and Twelfth streets
should be fixed and new courts built
immediately.
At pn sent the men and women not
on the teams or in the classes feel that
they have no more chance to play than
a chicken to swim. As soon as they
g"t interested in a game along comes
a pri\ ileged character and remarks:
“Well, guess we'll use this court now!
Good hvJ''
Can't we have new courts soon and
the old ones fixed up before the week
is out i There is a great demand and
used.

F. S. DUNN STILL IN ITALY
Teaches Officers English in Connection
with Y. M. Work
M. 11. Douglas, librarian, has re
cently heard from Professor Frederick
S. Dunn, head of the Latin department
of the University, now on leave of ab
sence and serving the Y. M. C. A. in
Naples, Italy. Professor Dunn writes
in part:
‘•It may interest you to know that
the Classical Weekly has just published
my “Julius Caesar in the English
Chronicle," which was read before the
Classical Conference of the Pacific
Northwest. The Classical Weekly has
also published, or will do so soon, an
other paper on “The Value of He
search." The Numisrulist has pub
Halted “The Monitary Crown Title of
the Emperor Commodies" and “The
Opera Traiano on Trajano Coins."
This later paper won for Professor
Dunn the prize of a Homan coin collec
tion in a contest for the best paper
upon a numismatic subject.
“1 am greatly enjoying my work
in English instruction with Italian
officers. Their eagerness to learn,
their deference and geniality, are a joy.
Mingled in with my education work
l have been conducting American of
ficers and Hod Cross and Y. M. O. A.
people through Pompeii and the Na
tional Museum. Please remember me
kindly to all who are interested."
Professor Dunn left the University
in service of the Y. M. C. A. last sum
mer. He has not yet announced when
he will return.

GIRLS’ TENNIS
CONTESTS BEGIN
Elimination Bouts Will Start Friday
Morning; Any Coe-d
May Enter
An elimination contest for all fem
inine enthusiasts of tennis will begin
Friday morning in the form of a round
robin contest, to be played off as rap
idly as the weather permits. A list
will be posted tomorrow in the gym
nasium where anyone who wishes to
enter the round robin may leave her
name upon payment of fifteen cents as
entrance fee. The money collected
from the entrance fees will be used
for buying tennis balls for the varsity
contests which will come off later.
Anyone who has any aspirations in
the way of tennis may enter this round
robin, whether she ^lias played five
weeks or five years. The only condi
tion is that the person who wishes to
enter put her name on the list in the
gymnasium and pay the fifteen cent
fee to Miss Gladys Gorman. Since so
many girls have taken up tennis re
cently it is hoped that the round robin
may begin Friday in order that the
contest may be played off as rapidly as
the weather permits. A committee will
be appointed to see that the matches
are played off per schedule for the
number of entrants and the lack of
courts will not permit any delay.
Best Players for Varsity
Each girl will play the player above
her in the list and the match will be
determined by the score of the first
set only. The winner of the set then
plays the next girl above her and fol
lows this order until she is beaten or
comes out at the head of the list. Any
girl who is beaten has the privilege of
challenging any one of the three next
highest above her. It will be advisable
for each girl to watch her position on
the list and keep in mind the names
of those whom she can challenge. Af
ter enough playing has been done for
each girl to obtain her respective rating
in the round robin the four best play
ers at the head of the list will be
chosen as the varsity team.
For field day the four players rank
ing next after the varsity team will be
chosen to play in singles and doubles.
Considerable progress should be made
by this time and those who do not
think they are good enough for the
teani have every opportunity to gain
the ranking necessary to play on field
day.
Three Varsity Players Back
With three of the varsity team back
from last year the women should make
a strong showing in tennis this spring.
Madeline Slotboom, Marjorie Kay and
Marjorie Campbell are the three mem
bers of last year’s team who are back
on the campus, and Caroline Alexander,
Florence Riddle and Theodore Stoppen
bach all went to the semi-finals in the
tournament last year and should put
up a good fight for the team this year.
Dorothy Stine, Dorothy Manville, Nao
mi Robbins, Margaret Smith, Carolyn
Cannon and Dorothy Reed are showing
up well for the freshman class, and all
of them should make a good Showing in
the finals.
It is possible that a double round
robin may be played at the same time
as the single round robin. If so, the
doubles will be played as a separate
contest and the teams will be chosen
later. The annual spring tournament
will not be interfered with by the round
robin, beginning Friday, but will be
played off as usual, as soon as the
women have had an opportunity to get
have been so crowded that practice has
a little more practice. The courts
have been so crowded that practice has
been impossible for any except a few,
but it is hoped that this condition will
be improved by the building of two new
cement courts which are to begin this
week.
Two Weeks of Playing
Notices will be posted on the bulletin
board concerning the progress of the
round robin and Miss Gorman has con
sented to do any coaching necessary.
With favorable weather the particu
pants will be expected to play off a set
a day or default their match if they
cannot play. Two weeks’ playing
should establish the rating of all the
players entering and by that time the
varsity team will be chosen so that
they may have some time to get in
practice.
