PHYSICAL TESTS Juniors And Seniors Reported In Poorer Condition Than At First Of Year Reports from the physical educa tion department state that the spring physical tests for women are practi cally finished. Decided improvement has been noticed in the freshmen women, said Miss Mabel Cummings, head of the women’s physical educa tion department. It is a rule in the University that a complete physical examination be given all freshman and sophomore women upon their entrance to the University' in the fall, and another such test to be giv en in the spring, so any change in the girl’s condition can be noticed. Although the physical education de partment has as yet no definite data to prove the statement, it is thought that the recent tests show a decided improvement in the freshman girls, not quite such favorable results in the sophomores, and a decided poorer conditions among the junior and the senior girls. This is most probably due, said Miss Cummings, to the fact that freshman girls are more carefluly guarded by rules, and that their hours are more regular, and their social functions and activities somewhat limited. Physical tests are now conducted in all schools, universities and col leges that are at all prominent. It is the tendency in the country to cut down these tests to the simplest, and do away practically with the tape measure tests and resort to the func tional. The physical examinations given at the University of Oregon are among the most thorough, and complete of any given in the country, said Miss Cummings. These tests at Oregon are conducted for three prin cipal reasons, all designed as a bene fit to the women students, and their present and future health. The first reason, Miss Cummings said, is to get a general physical inventory of a person, to find whether she is physi cally strong enough to take college work, and to determine if she is safe ^iniii iiiiinaiwitii i!ii>!iuiiiiii!iii!i:iiii» ^ii'iiiiiimiii'iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiffliiiiiiiiniliiiiiiai'iianiiaBimnniniiiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiiiiii, ■ aiiaiaiiiaiinmmraUBimmtraiiHi.; a'niiiarainii.:'.; ^ | New Rules Framed To Govern Campus Living Organizations | = 9 % iani! ...

At a recent meeting of the Student Living committee, which is composed of faculty members who look after the interests of the different student organizations, the following new rules in regard to campus organizations were incorporated: 1. All fraternities and clubs must incorporate under the laws of the State of Oregon. 2. The treasurer of each of the local groups must be under bonds sufficient to cover indebtedness. Note.—This shall also apply to those national organizations that do not have national supervision. 3. All new groups must carry in surance on their personal belongings and househrold equipment. Note.—This applies also to those national organizations that do not have national supervision. 4. New groups expecting to or ganize shall first obtain the consent of the Student Living Committee. 5. No student organization shall rent, lease, purchase, or acquire by bequest, real estate or enter into any contract for real estate covering a period of years, unless such agree ment shall first have been approved by the Student L:ving Committee. 6. The location of all fraternity, sorority, and club houses shall be approved by the Student Living Com mittee. 7. All student organizations hav ing financial obligations except those under the direction of the Student Body, shall submit to the Student ; Living Committee a financial state-1 ment on the 5th of each month. The Student Living Committee is composed of the following faculty! members: Dr. Bovard, chairman and Dean Morton, Professor Crockatt, Dr. DeBusk, Miss Perkins, Miss Tin gle, Dean Fox and Dean Straub, ad visory members. to have around her fellow students, in not possessing afty contagious dis eases. The second reason is to de termine the individual’s weak points, so it will enable the department to develop and strengthen them, and third, to enable the department to place the girl in the sort of work that is .suitable to her. The fourth reason is to gather data, by compar ing the spring tests with those given in the fall, if any improvement has been made in the condition of the girls during the school year.
