One great undertaking is confronting us: We must erect, on the campus of the University, some suitable and fitting memorial for those University of Oregon students who made the supreme sacrifice in the world war. The movement for the memorial has long bee# under way, and much work has already been done upon plans, but by far the greater part re mains to be done. It is unnecessary to launch upon any rea sons for the memorial—it is but the least that Oregon can do to honor those forty-three who gave their lives for their coun try. A committee has been working among alumni and friends of the University for some time, gathering ideas, interest and moral support. As yel, no definite plans for the memorial have been decided upon, the committee preferring to gather ideas at present in an endeavor to find some plan Avliich will please all. The plan for a soldier’s memorial has been approved by resolutions of the alumni association, the l'hCulty, the regents, and the associated students. Chairmen have been appointed1 among the alumni for each class from 78 to ’22, and the per sonal approval of the plan for a suitable memorial of each of these chairmen was published in the last issue of “Old Ore gon,” the alumni bi-monthly magazine. So far the work has been carried principally to the alumni. But the students arc anxious to do their part in the erection of a memorial, not only now, when ideas, interest, and moral support are needed, but later, when the time comes for the actual pitting over of the campaign to erect whatever memorial is selected. The last issue of “Old Oregon” was dedicated to the soldier memorial, and one article in particular, entitled, “The! Memorial Situation, Briefly,” sums up, in its closing para graphs, the proposition and the questions which confront those in charge of the erection of the memorial. It says: “Each Oregon man and women is respectfully in vited and earnestly urged to speak his or her mind on the matter of a soldier memorial. “Shall the memorial he useful, or ornamental, or a combination of utility and decoration ? “Shall it conform to the atmosphere of the old cam pus where the dead heroes spent their college days, or shall it voice our message of love and respect from a proud vantage point on the future campus center? “Shall the memorial lx* financed entirely by the Uni versity family, or should contributions be invited from the general public? , “Shall we fix the amount which we feel that we can hope to raise, or shall we confess no limitations what ever? “Shall we hasten the memorial or shall we follow a deliberate course, making'certain that we are right in our decision ? “As tollowers ol the bunion'Yellow who recognize the everlasting debt wo owe our University and our state—a debt we can never presume to repay in any thing like adequate measure—-and as, above all. God fearing, government-loving Americans who cherish the rich traditions of our country and honor those who serve our nation heroically, let us dedicate our very best thought and pledge our most earnest purpose to this soldier memorial.’’ The adoption of the new revised constitution this morning at assembly is a certainty, but let that deter no one from vot ing against the revised pact in case lie is not in favor of it. The majority of the students realize that the new constitution is a great improvement over the old, and that the re-arrange ment of the financial system means a great saving to the as sociated students each year. Be there and vote this morning. *-* | Announcements | ( ¥--—--——* Crossroads. — Meeting at 7:30 o’clock Thursday evening.

With Eugene winning over Riddle high school here for the championship of the south Willamette district and district championships being decided in 11 other towns of the state the semi-finals of the Oregon interscholastic debate league ended last Friday. The twelve district winners will be brought to Eugene on Junior week-end and decide the state championship in a series of debates on the campus. Six out of 12 districts have reported winners to Professor John C. Almaek. who is conducting the debates under the auspices of the University of Oregon. Mr. Almaek reports the known win ners. who will meet on the campus Jun ior week-end to determine the state championship, as: Salem in the north Willamette district; Eugene won from Riddle Friday thus placing first in the south Willamette district; Knappa in the lower Columbia district; Heppner in the Umatilla district: Burns in the southeast. Klamath Falls high school is to represent the south central dis trict here during Junior week-end. With tl e preliminary debates finished the extension division is now preparing a questionnaire to be sent each of the winning teams for the purpose of find ing out what methods they prefer to use in the finals. The winning team is to be presented with a cup, which has twice been won by Salem. Corvallis was the winner last year. It is the desire of every team to prove superior to the north Willam ette team this year in order to prevent them from winning the Almaek cup for n third time. If Salem wins the cup again this year it will become a permanent possession of that high school. LOST. — Engraved silver Eversharp pencil. Initials “6. K.” Finder please call 1307. Reward.
