WHY THE DELAY?
Again and again the plea is heard: “Hew can Hay
ward and Bohler be expected to produce winning teams when
they are forced to use such miserable practice grounds?”
Kincaid field is certainly no field on which even an expert
call be expected to produce a winning track team. The same
can be said for the Cemetery ridge baseball diamond.
It is understood that the necessary funds to build a track
around Hayward field have been provided, and that the funds
to at least improve the Cemetery ridge diamond can be pro
cured. That is not what seems to be holding up the work.
What it is seems to have several of the most interested guess
ing.
The spring term is here, track meets are scheduled for
Eugene shortly, artd the baseball season will get its start to
morrow afternoon. Junior week-end is not so far distant, and
a host of guests will flood the campus. Hiow will things shape
up by that time?
The Emerald has pled for action on this matter until it
does so again with reluctance. But there seems no reason for
delay and every reason for speed. What can be gained by de
laying the work?
Every so often a new shape of pin sprouts up on the cam
pus. Students do not seem to realize until they have partic
ipated in the organization of a new society or two that the
more pins one gets the fewer one wears. There would doubt
less be a decree in the term probation lists were there also a
decrease in the number of useless socities whose chief occu
pation seems to be wasting time.
Know to what class you belong? One could hardly tell
if it wasnt ’that he wore wearing something that a member
of another class could not wear. Class spirit has been gradu
ally declining in the past years until it is now almost a dead
quality. It is valuable. Your classmates are the friends you
will remember in later years.
Lots of men who have never been inside the woman’s
building will cross the doorstep tonight.
Junior week-end is coming. Art1 you sure your friends
are invited?
SUMMER TERM GETS
. WIDE ADVERTISING
Educational and Recreational Advantayes

The latest University booklet, entitled
‘‘The Greater Oregon” is now off the

er, who took much interest in arranging
the different departments. The booklet

pective students from all parts of the

The booklet consists of 4S pages of
pictures and reading matter. The pic
tures show various scenes over the
campus and of numerous college activi

to the graduating student from the high

advantage of the opportunities of a Uni
versity education. It tells him what he
can expect when he arrives on the cam
pus.
The progress of the University is

being erected or have been built lately

APPOINTMENT BUREAU
LISTS 420 POSITIONS
Teaching Candidates Available For All
But 143; 55 of Graduates of
1920 Register.
Four hundred and twenty teaching po
sitions were listed with the appointment
bureau of the University during the cal
endar year 1920; for 143 of these, no
suitable candidates were available. Regis
tered with the bureau were 55 grad
uates of 1920 and 79 of other years.
These figures are contained in the an
mial report of the appointment commit
tee recently submitted.
Of the graduates of 1920, the report
shows that 48 secured teaching jiositions
through the bureau, three decided not
to teach, two are doing graduate work
at other institutions, one is doing social
science lecture work and one is doing
work at the University of Oregon.

tion during the year, 11 remained at
their former positions at an increase in
salary, one lias taken up other business,
one is traveling with the Ellison-White
Chautauqua company, and concerning 10

The problem whether to register grad
uates of other institutions in the bureau
was discussed by the committee who
state their opinion that the practice
should be discouraged. The report further
advises prospective teachers to prepare
in at least three lines so as to meet some
of the various combinations of teaching
that are required of many high school
teachers. The subject of physical edu
cation is also recommended as an ad
vantage to teachers who might be called
upon to take up that work in addition
to the teaching of other subjects.

ORIEIUTJIL HISTORY IS
HIGH SCHOOL COURSE
Study Newly Introduced for
Preparatory Work
Oriental history, a new subject for a
high school study, has been introduced
at the University high school this se
mester. This is a course dealing with
the Philippine Islands, India, China,
and Japan, and is a subject seldom stud
ied in high school, but very important.
;especially to the Pacific coast, because
of the nearness of the Oriental coun
tries.
This study is by way of an experiment
in the University high school, according
to Miss Tliora Smith, who teaches the
subject. Miss Smith graduated from the
University last year, and was a major
in the history department. The course,
she said, is planned to meet a recognized
need. There are, however, difficulties in
the teaching of it, because there are no
text books on the subject in existence.
The class studies various geographical
magazines, and also uses the Carpenter
Geographical Readers. The course deals
with the life and customs of the Ori
ental peoples at the present time, and
with such historical facts as are avail
able. There are* various interesting
stories of the past history of Asia, such
as the travels of Marco Polo, which the
class studies. The value of the eastern
civilization is impressed during the
course.
“We aim simply to give the students
in this class enough to create an inter
est in the history of the Orient and to
inspire them to go on and acquire more
knowledge of the subject,” Miss Smith
said. Professor Eldon Griffin, of the
history department, is very, much inter
ested in this experiment in the Univer
sity high school, and believes that the
subject should be regularly put into high
school curricula, especially on tile Pa
cific coast, where problems connected
with the diplomatic relations between
the United States and the Oriental coun
tries are of such signal importance.
PROFESSOR GREGORY TO SPEAK
Professor C. A. Gregory of the school
of education is to go to Woodburn on
Saturday to speak before the Teachers’
Institute. About 40 teachers will be

For instance: Here’s a green that’s
going to be big with the young chap who
buys massages every week — a bronze for
the busy business man who can hardly
spare the time to get shaved—a tan that
looks $15, and costs only ten—and a pearl

They are all here in tune and time for
