Women’s Memorial Hall Has Charm of Antique Decoration Quaint antiques, dull woods beautified by age, heavy cabinets with hahd carv lags which speak of long ago, massive tables from monasteries, sea chests whose sears breathe history- rugs from the * irieut. hangings from England—furnish ings gathered from many lands, combine t" sive dignified distinction to the social ream of the Women’s building, which will be dedicated today. The many who came todav will find nothing of the coldness and formality of a new building, for so carefully have the furrr.shings been selected and placed that the armosphere is one of hospitality and charm that comes from the beautiful and permanence of the hard wrought furnish ings. aged by use. “Everything has been selected with an eye to beauty, durability and suitability/’ Sa.vs Mrs. George Gerlinger, who hat directed the interio-- of the building and has chosen the furnishings. Panels Are Feature. The entrance to the social wing of the ’ mlding is from the south. In front of t iis entrance on each side of the stair way hang framed parchment panels bear ing 1200 names of those whose gifts helped make the building possible.

Oil PACIFIC COAST Miss Thomson Tells of Manj Advantages of New Structure. DEPARTMENT MAJORS CONTRIBUTE TO FUND Office and Room Arrangement Replete With Modern Features. \\ e now have the best equipment on the coast,’ said Miss Harriet Thomson, noting head of the department of phy sical education, yesterday, when she was asked about the Women’s building, the formal dedication of which will take place today. “And some eastern people who have visited us. say that we have one of the best equipped homes in the United States. That applies to arrangement of the building and to apparatus. The building is so arranged,” she continued, “that our work can be conducted with out congestion. There is a complete cir cuit so that from the time a girl comes I into the dressing room until she goes out to class, there is not the piling up and crowding to get out or in, that we have had to contend with in the old building. As for apparatus, we have practically every appliance that is used for regular class work, restricted work, and correc tive work. “When the girls copie to us,” Mips Thomson went on, “they are grouped according to the kind of work they can do, or are able to do. They are given a physical examination, and assigned to regular, restricted, or corrective work. There is a fourth group, called the clinic or remedial, in which a few are handled under the direct supervision of the phy sician, and the department senior majors. Hygiene Held Important. “Our work,” stated Miss Thomson, “is based on the fact that disease, both in fectious and organic, can be in time elim inated by right living. It is a large faith, and a long ways off,” she smiled, “but if everybody works. I think we can arrive.” Personal hygiene lectures and three periods of exercise a week are given to get over to the students the idea of regular exercise, and to fix habits of exercise. “Another thing that I would like to have clearly understood,” continued Miss Thomson, “is that we have two distinct programs, the health program and the sick program. The health program is baked on the belief that no matter how well we think we are, we can build up more energy than we started with. Into the sick program, comes the infirmary, the physician, and the nurses, in the ef fort to bring individuals up to normal, so they may go on with health building.” Inception Come 10 Years Ago. When Miss Thomson first came to the University, ten years ago, she says, there was just beginning to be talk of a new building for the department. Plans were made for asking the legislature for an appropriation. When the request was made, it met the reply that the state could not appropriate enough for the building, but that some could be given i{ the amount would be matched by the peo ple. “At. that,” said Miss Thomson, “Mrs. Gerlinger set out to get the money. She has devoted the last six years to doing just that. Any amount from a nickle up was accepted. She developed one idea after another, and finally the fund was assured. Majors in the department pledg ed .$500 a year for the last two years, the last of which they just paid last week. This means that about 40 girls gave $1000. which they earned doing physical education work, coaching danc ing classes, giving massages, and so on. “In 1010,” resumed Miss Thomson, “we had four majors in the department Now. we have 66. The fact that 30 of them are freshmen shows that our im proved equipment is getting more girls into the work. We have more requests for instructors from the department, every year, than we can possibly supply people for.” In the basemebt of the new building is the dressing room and 704 lockers. Eighty girls can have shower baths at ihe same time. The shower is regulate! by the jauitress. all the girls have to do is to stand under the water. “This ar rangement makes for very quick work, and incidentally,” laughed Miss Thomson, “it saves water.” On this same floor is tse swimming pool and the hair drying room, where 20 girls can dry their hair (Continued on Page 3.) Women's Building Reality Owing to Mrs. Gerlinger, Say University Authorities The University aud the state of Ore-1 Ron owes the Women’s building, first of all to Mrs. George Gerlinger, woman re gent of the University, according to President P. L. Campbell, Mrs. Campbell and Miss Gertrude Talbot, head resident of Hendricks hall. “I can say for Mrs. Campbell and my self,” said President Campbell yester day, “that we have had occasion to know of the great amount of hard work it has taken, often under very discouraging cir cumstances, to get the fund for the Wo men's building to the amount required. “The University and the state.” con tinued the President, “are indebted to Mrs. Gerlingeifs unfailing^ enthusiasm and untiring energy for pushing the cam paign through a period of years and fi nally bringing it to such splendid suc cess. She was largely influential, also, in securing the appropriation of $650,000 from the legislature for the building. She went personally before the ways and means committee and made the plea for the women of the state. “The University ai:d the whole state,” concluded President Campbell, “owe a great debt of gratitude to Mrs. Gerlin ger for the magnificent achievement which she has personally directed, and into which she has put most loyal devo tion and untiring energy.” “The money came from just everybody anfl everywhere, it is a long story,” Miss Talbot said. “It has been a marvel to me how Mrs. Gerlinger has persevered until the money was all raised. Anyone else would have given up long ago. I don’t believe there is another woman in the state who would have undertaken and carried out such a large task. “Mrs. Gerlinger has given her time and energy for the building in a way that can not be estimated. She will not claim the credit,” went on Miss Talbot, “she says the people of the state gave the money, and so they did, but. we owe the building to Mrs. Gerlinger just the same. She went personally to many of those who have made large gifts and solicited subscriptions. She encouraged memorial gifts, any have been made. She worked at the legislature, too, and it was through her efforts that the state appropriated money for the building. “For ten years, Mrs. Gerlinger has been a regent of the University; she went east and saw what the women of other schools had. and she determined that our girls should have something just as good,” continued Miss Talbot. “Some said, ‘why not let the legisla ture appropriate the money and be done with itV* but the money, coming ns it has, in small gifts from individuals and clubs in all parts of the state,” went ou Miss Talbot, “has widened the interest in the University in a way that nothing else could do. “It is remarkable,” declared Miss Tal bot, “that the largest, individual gift Was $1500. This gift, was made by President Campbell and his wife. The largest me morial gift. $.‘1000. was made by Mrs. Mary Thompson. Mrs. J. N. Teal, and Miss Genevieve Thompson in memory of 1>. P. Thompson. Many memorial gifts of $1000, $500 and less amounts were given. The marble memorial tablet bear ing the names of persons so honored is placed on the landing of the grand stair case in the building. “The city of Eugene gave $5000. Other towns have given; clubs and organiza tions of all kinds in all parts of the state have contributed. Groups of friends of the University have given programs, dances, tens, and various functions to add to the fund. Girls have had candy sales, they have put up friut, and sold post cards to earn their pledges to the fund. One girl drove a traction engine, that, she might herself earn the money for her gift of $5. “Alumni of the University have given, students and faculty have given, Univer sity clubs and fraternities have given. “It. is the countless mall gifts thUt moan so much,” said Miss Talbot. “The remarkable thing to me,” she repeated, “is that, the single gifts have not been so large, but that so mnny persons and or ganizations have pledged.” There are hundreds of persons named as the givers of $50 and $100. Two framed, illumi nated tablets, naming donors, arranged by towns, hang in the lobby of the build ing, one on each side of the grand stair case. These are done in script with red, blue, and gold decoration. The building is the gift of the state, but the ideal and the energy that made it a reality are te gift of Mrs. George Oor lieger, according to those who- have, watched the campaign from the beginning.
