Although the conference is primarily intended as a method of solution p£ college journalistic problems and of formation of an inter cpMegiatjp press association, it will, in all probability, reach f&£*beyohd these bonds. ' v.};t^ft?re than student associations or any other means of in tc^eollegiate communication, college newspapers serve to CiatSfly on intercourse between student bodies. Officials of sifoiept; bodies meet but few during the school year; college newspapers' are issued from one to five times a week, and there is pot an issue that does not contain matter of more or li^S importance in intercollegiate relations. Since these news papers are Widely circulated through exchange, they form the bi$i|jt ihekns of determining opinion and attitude among col tijfes and universities. V-LQuite naturally, the better understanding among college ‘mMichtiori Officials which will certainly grow out of the press inference and the subsequent formation of a press associa will help to cement friendship and foster co-operation png the Pacific coast institutions. The benefit which the lege newspapers themselves will derive, in the shape of im ived ijfitoffeollegiate news service and organization of busi ly department, will be eminently worthwhile. Of great im cance, however, is the growth of good feeling and under standing among student bodies in general wliiqh should come as a result of the conference. THE BIGGEST HOMECOMING. Sy tonight, many of the alumni of Oregon will be on the pus. Tomorrow all those who can will be in Eugene for ieeoming.

Bender, manager of the Washington Daily, Ray Tester, of the Emerald, and Harold B. Robinson, manager of the Barometer. / Problems Discussed. The problems of the small college -newspaper were discussed in the first talk by George Yancey. He outlined . the difficulties encountered in choosing 1 the news for a weekly paper read by a \ small student body such as thete is at Whitman. Trips to conferences for the editor and manager and credits toward graduation for members of the staff j were suggested by him as possible re ' wards for the work done on a paper. Pay for the editor and manager was advo cated by Foster, of Washington, in the 'discussion following. ’ ( Mitchell Charnley, formerly editor of f thet Williams College Record, and now associate editor of the Washington Daily, told of methods used at Williams to stimulate interest in getting on the staff t of the Record. Three competitions a (year are held among staff aspirants at ■ that place and two members are chosen jat the elose of eaeh competition. In this [way six men are elected to the staff from the freshman class and they hold their | positions throughout their years in col lege. The profits of the paper there are divided on a percentage basis among tjjie chief members of the staff. Attractive Make-up Vital. Methods of enlivening the editorial page and of making it a rearand worth while factor in the life of the institution were outlined by A. Wendell Brackett in the second of the regular talks. Ifc ad vocated an attractive makeup and the judicious use of features as two of the iberit means of keeping this section a readable and entertaining part of the paper, ne also advocated a consistent and absolutely sincere editorial -policy. The remainder of the session was taken up With a round table discussion in which all took part. The second and last meeting of the conference will be held this morning when the organization will be perfected arid other problems of a collegiate paper discussed. Although this will end the conference practically all of. the dele gates will remain for the Washington game and other Homecoming events.
