Having defeated almost everything in sight down south, it seems California is going to take the coast championship in. track and baseball for granted. Jiist now it looks as if California would not enter the coast conference track meet to be held here on May 21. The Cali fornia team is going east after larger game, it seems, and the cOast championship isn’t worth considering anyway, if one is to accept the point of view of the southern institution. Every so often a news report comes from Berkeley announc iag some sort of an athletic competion with large eastern schools. The Michigan track meet, the Harvard national cham pionships, the projected baseball trip, the attempts to obtain ■football games with eastern teams—these are examples of the policy being followed by California. And all this time other coast teams are being shoved down, forced to take a hack seat because of the dictatorial policy assumed by the Berkeley officials. Stanford, possibly, may be excepted, because of the nearness of the two schools, and the traditional ravalry. But it is not to be expected that a small school like Stanford can long follow in tlie footsteps of California, even should she wish to do so. It is even rumored that California may condescend to send her second-string track men to the coast conference meet. It is also rumored that such games as the Oregon-California foot ball game at Berkeley next fall are to be billed: as mere practice games. If the attitude of California is interpreted correctly, it is time for something to he done. If California is really in a bet ter athletic class than the other coast teams, as they seem to consider themselves, what is to prevent other schools from dis continuing athletic relations? Let’s at least find out the verac ity of the rumors, and decide how to meet their attitude. From now on, the popular fireside pastime will be reading between tlie lines in the Emerald to find just which candidate is receiving the dishonorable support of the college publica tion. Putting this word and that sentence together and add ing in a mistake in proof-reading to prove that, the Emerald isn’t on the square is great sport, and very convincing exer cise, Go to it—it’s all in the game, and don’t believe that it wasn’t expected. The men’s glee club made good in their own home town. No doubt of it. Especially pleasing was the little verse com plimenting the Emerald on its financial success. Should any one go again next year, they will undoubtedly be favored with the same selection. In fact, a comparison of the programs of the last ’steen years or so might easily reveal that the “hits” of past concerts have been made “hits” (through no fault of the audience) in succeeding concerts—(plural). Is the score even now, referee? WILL SUCCEED ALMACK Dr. D. E. Clark, Red Cross Publicity Man, Pay8 Visit to Campus. Pr. D. E.

The movement now current in govern mental circles to create a cabinet post for a “secretary of fine arts” is be lieved by Avard Fairbanks, of the Uni versity school of art faculty, to be one of the most valuable intellectual pro grams ever instituted in this country. The ordinary tendency, according to Pro fessor Fairbanks, is for a growing nation to give too little attention to the devel opment of its fine arts, with the result that its civilization is prevented froni at taining the heights to which it could rise if the proper significance were given to the realm of the beautiful. According to news reports, President Warren Harding is much impressed with the new movement and has asked the art ists of the country to get their arguments in tangible form and submit them so that action could be taken upon the matter. This is the first progress ever made in the effort to obtain the establishment of a distinct department of fine arts in the American government. The idea has been much talked of for several years but nothing has ever been done. If the present plan materializes it will form the first definite national standards of artistic judgment, something which, according to Professor Fairbanks, the American people have lacked. Only with such national recognition of art, can painting, mural work, and sculpture, with all of their allied lines, develop to a point compatible with American civilization. The movement to secure the establish ment -of a fine arts post in the cabinet has been undertaken by the' ^Artists’ League of New York, and is sponsored by many of the leading art organizations of the country. It is the outcome in its present form, of the policy of the pres ent administration to actively further the cause of fine arts, from a national stand point. !** * I liltlf MAYOR BAKER TO SPEAK.
