All Violations of Rules to be
Reported to Student
Committee.
An honor system for the school of
commerce has been suggested by a rep
resentative group of Senior majors in.
that department, and vvilf be voted on
by commerce students tomorrow.
This is a new student movement for
the purpose of higher scholastic stand
ards in the University, according to
those backing it. The plan is originat
ed by the seniors in the school, who
have prepared a pamphlet setting forth
the scheme and its advantages.
There has been a general feeling
among those responsible, that an honor
system would create an incentive for
better scholarship, and thus increase the
general efficiency of the department.
Speaking for the faculty of the com
merce, Dean E. C. bobbins nays he is
in favor of (lie plan, aud has announced
•T«t <he faculty will meet students on
a fifty-fifty basis, lie also stated that
the work of organization and publicity
was being done entirely by sthdeuts, and
that the credit should go to them.

"ill be asked to cither approve or dis
approve the plan sometime tomorrow.
It will not be adopted unless two-tliirds
favor it.
If the proposed plan is adopted, an
Honor commission will be chosen of rep
resentative students to act on all vio
lations of the rules. They -will then
make their recommendations as to the
disciplinary action to be taken. Under
all conditions this committee will take
action before the faculty committees are
notified.
All students in any class in the school
of commerce will he held on their honor
to report any cheating or dishonesty to
the honor commission. This report must
be iu writing and must bear the sig
nature of tiie witness.
For the present the decisions of the
honor committee will be referred to th»
I acuity advisory committee, but; it is
the plan to ultimately- make the disci
pline entirely a student matter. *
Students to Punish.
The system is regarded as an out
grdwth of the growing idea that punish^
ment and rules of class conduct should
conic from the students, rather than
lemii the faculty.
It is not desired to let the idea sjjread
tiie system lias become necessary.
I ha I
lor in the pamphlet it is made verj

The point is made that honesty in
ouMners is the only policy. aoJ it fol

ness education is absolutely accessary.
If the plan is adopted, the changes

"inter term.

SUBJECT OF LECTURE
I
j Wisconsin Dean Writes Dy
ment of Opinion on Subject.
Although the question of establishing
Junior Colleges as a means of solving
the problem of increased attendance at
the universities lias never become a pro- j
i jeet in this stale, it is regarded by some I
| members of the faculty as a. matter .de- j
serving much consideration. G. G. Sol- j
lory, dean of the College of Letters and
Science at the University of Wisconsin,
recently spoke oil this subject before the
National Association of State Universi
lies at Washington, and has written some
reasons for his remarks in a letter to
! Dean Colin V. Dymeut.
Dean Sellery says, “Our attendance is
doubling every ten years because more
and more people look to the university
as the gate of opportunity, either for
success along technical lines or along
other lines. We are confronted, there
fore, with the double problem of nnin
| bees and costs. We can not raise stand- |
iirds above the requirements of the pro- j
fessions. We can not exclude students '
and meet the expectations of our oiti
i zens. Will (lie Junior College help? The
Junior College, if we establish several of
them in a state, will not reduce numbers j
or costs. They will, however, give us a
higher range of talent at the central uni
versity for the last two years of the
course, provided they are "put from the
start under the control of the central
university. If they are not put under the
control of the central university, their
standing will be local and variable, and
consequently the students who puss from
them to the junior year of the univer
sity will not he ready to march forward
at once.
"We can not look, therefore, for de
creased numbers or materially lower
costs, and consequently must rely upon
-increased taxation and that means the
education of the American people to a
weight of taxation from which they have
been exempt. However, they must learn
to view education as an investment.”

Major Course to be
Increased.
The hew schedule for (lie winter
form shows an increasing tendency in
all departments to make courses con
tinuous throughout the three terms of
the year, and a resuv-ng decrease in
the number of one-term courses. The
number of courses directly applicable to

ment arc being increased.
An important eoursc which will begiu
in January is the one in industrial rela

a position t.o give a valuable course.
Opportunities are open for majors in
the military science department in the
senior.military science class, aud in the
new course in topography, which will be

There is nfi-iiicreasf: iif fhe Scope of
the work of the school of physical educa
tion. Courses of interest are the intra
mural sports under Henry Foster, and
the work in tumbling, advanced wrest
ling and advanced boxing. These new
courses show tire-desire to make phy
sical education a strong department.'For
women, the course in individualized ex
ercise is a great improvement over the
the old system of routine gymnasium
work. Corrective work will lie given to
small groups and to individuals, so that
the exercise of every girl will'he adapted
to her needs
.Miss Grace L. Robertson will give
courses in home nursing and care of chil

“Biggest Financial Year Yet”
Says McClain; $23,000
Cleared by Football.
Hurt Howard, left end on the varsity
■eleven for the past two years, was un
animously elected captain of the 1921
University of Oregon football team at the
annual banquet of varsity players held
last night.
Howard, besides playing end of the
varsity for the past two years, played the
same position on the military eleven of
1918 during his freshman year. He is a
junior this year, and has one more year
of varsity football. His home is in Port
daud.
1 California Victory Predicted.
Having seen several of the crack
> elevens of the east perform this year,
President. P. L. Campbell, speuking at
i the banquet of the football men, said that
the teams of the coast were not inferior,
and that he believed that California
could win from Ohio State by two touch
downs. He based this declaration on the
performance of the Ohio State eleven in
u game with Chicago, in which the Buck
eye team won by one poiut alter having
| thirteen points scored ageinst them the
first half.
I respects for a successful season oeit
year are bright, according to Shy Hunt
ington, coach. He urged tlie men to en
coiirage the freshmen to remain m school
iiud keep up their work, closinit his talk
by thanking the team for the spirit
shown duriug the past season.
Season a Financial Success.
“The biggest financial year yet,” said
Graduate Manager Marion MeClAin.
“We’re going to be prepared to take'Care
of 15,000 people here for the game with
O. A. C. next year.” He further showed
the need of a larger grandstand by tir
ing the seating capacity of the stand on
Hayward field as 7200, while 13,500 at
tended the O. A. C. game at Corvallis.
He predicts a crowd of 20,000 in 1921.
The game with U. S. C. brought in $8000
to the University, while the gross re
ceipts for the year were $23,000, as com
pared with $15,000 for last year.
Conference Split Predicted.
A break in the conference at the North
west Conference meeting in Spokane
next Friday and Saturday, dividing the
coast into a northern and southern
league, on aecouut of climatic conditions,
was predicted by Trainer Bill Hayward.
He further believes that a split in the
northwest is inevitable, O. A. C., W. S.
€., U„of W. and Oregon forming a major
league, with Montana, Idaho, Nevada
and Utah comprising a miuor. Stanford,
U. of C. and TJ. S. C. will make up the
southern conference. Hayward gave a
review of the season, and characterized
the stand of Oregon on her 8 inch line
during the O. A. C. game as the greatest
ever seen in the northwest.
In behalf of the Executive Council and
the women of the University, Lyle Bry
son expressed approval of the work of
the entire team for the 1920 season.
