DIM OF CULTURE
TO WORKED ID POOf
Dr. Graham Taylor Praises
Real Joy of Service
To Whole World
SOCIOLOGIST KNOWS
CHICAGO SLUMS WELL
Americanization Work Termed
Particularly Important
At This Time.
A plea for the worker, the unfortunate
and the down-trodden which pointed out
the obligations the cultured owe to the
lower strata of society, and assurance of
the joy to the giver which this service
brings, was made by Doctor Graham
Taylor, of Chicago, leader among Ameri
can sociologists, who talked to the stu
dent body Thursday morning. During
this talk he gave advice gleaned from
a 2ti year study of the problems of the
Chicago slums.
Living, working and learning for years
in the very heart of the congested slum
district of Chicago—the seventeenth
ward—Doctor Taylor has carried on a
work of Americanization and service to
the poor that can be compared to the
great and uplifting efforts of Jane Ad
ams at Hull House, to whom the Doctor
paid a glowing tribute.
“Don’t Be Self-Centered.”
“Do not allow yourself to become self
centered,” the speaker told his student
audience. “Think of the needs and the
sorrows of others, you owe society for
the education you are receiving here and
when you leave this institution you
should endeavor to return in a measure
some of the benefits you have received.”
“Service to your fellow-man will bring
a joy to your life, will broaden and ex
pand your sphere of influence and en
large your capacity. It will give a di
rection to your purpose in life and leave
you a fuller and more commanding out
look and a richer American and Christian
character.” he declared.
Advising his hearers to go forth and
serve the community, the Doctor warned
them of the uselessness and pity of the
impractical social worker who knows
nothing of the problems of the people
and yet attempts to alleviate their suf
ferings.
Touching upon the problems of the
radical propagandist and the reactionary
conservative, the speaker declared that
the latter is the more dangerous of the
two. “VVe can easily take care of the
former,” he declared, “ho is harmless,
hut the reactionary and his subtle work 1
must, be curbed. America is becoming
too timed concerning these enemies with
in her gates and we must discourage the
advancement to places of power of such

HIGH SCHOOL DEBATE
FINALS TO BE MAY 20
Salem Has Two Wins; Another Would
Give Permanent Possession
of Trophy.
i The final debates in the Oregon high
school debate contests will be held May
~0, Friday of Junior Week-end. at 2
o clock. The finals will he triangular, in
g that they will be between the three neg
ative and three affirmative members of
the winning teams, and will be held in
the Y but. the assembly room of Oregon
hall and the assembly room of the Uni
versity high. Spectators are to be ad
i niitted only to the final debates; all
spectators are burred from the elimina
■ tion contests.
The contests will be unusually lively
this year due to the fact that Salem has
held the cup for two years and if sue-'
cessful in taking the debates at this
, time will be the permanent owner of the
cup. If this should happen, another cup
| would have to be bought. Professor K.
Jv Dot ou first offered the silver cup for
the debate competition.
Week-End And Vaudeville
Plans Finally Complete
“Plans for Junior Week-end are pro
gressing rapidly,” said Ogden Johnson,
general chairman of the celebration, in
a report at a meeting of the junior class
held Tuesday evening. All the commit
tees are working hard. Johnson says, and
plans are being made for one of the big
gest Junior Week-ends ever held on the
campus.
Arthur Johnson, general chairman of
the junior vaudeville, spoke of final
plans that are being made for that en
tertainment. F.leven big acts arc sched
uled. varying from musical comedy to
juggling. Everyone who attends the vau
deville is promised an entertaining even
ing. Tickets for the show were distrib
uted by Johnson.
A discussion was held on the bronze
memorial, which it has been suggested
that the juniors combine with the seniors
in giving to Kincaid field. No definite
decision was reached.
The suggestion was made, and left,
with members of the class to thing over,
that the senior class play next year be
taken from the play-writing class in the
University if a suitable one can be ob
tained.
POWERS AND ALMACK TRAVEL.
Alfred Powers, head of visual instruc
tion, left yesterday morning for Portland
(and Salem. In the latter place lie will
! attend to affairs in connection with the
University’s exhibit at tin* Oregon State
Fair. John C. Almaek left today for
Portland where lie will meet with the
committees on investigation which are
holding a conference at the Portland
hotel this week.
Zippy Novelties Abound
on Junior Stunt Program j
1'nusual sounds emanated from the
music building last uiglit. according to
passers-by. Wierd screams of a jazz
clarinet mixed with the nasal groan of
a slide trombone, diluted with a violin
and banjo, and well shaken by a piano
and drums before being taken by the aud
itor seemed to constitute, in the final
analysis, the cause of the uproar.
It was not the result of a tonal argu
ment in a class in musical depreciation,
however, but was Carl Newbury’s or
chestra getting in trim for the Junior
'audeville, explains Arthur Johnson, in
charge of the affair. This orchestra
"dl be the opening number of the bill
"hen the curtain rises at the Eugene
theatre Saturday night. A new brand of
brand-new, Huey jazz blues, is being
cooked up by Newbury’s crew of long
"rnded musicians and this aggregation is
expected to start things off with a zip.
says Johnson.
Acts to please everybody from the low
cst frosh down to the deans themselves
are promised by the management. Sev
eral new songs and some clever parodies

and juggling. One of the head-liners is
a musical comedy entitled “Maison i
-Ifario. written and directed by Marion j
Cilsrrap. George Stearns and Martha Ann j
dee. This number has a cast of 25
singers and dancers.
A great many original local and Broad
"a' Novelties will be staged during the

“Hank” Foster Selects 20
Men For Meet Saturday.
About 20 frosli trackmen will leave for
Corvallis Saturday morning to compete
•or honors with the O. A. C. Rook ag
gregation in the afternoon. Aecoording
to “Hank” Foster, the O. A. C. yearlings
have a last bunch and the freshmen will
have to put everything they have into it
to hold their own against them.
Heretofore in the various meets only
about 12 men were allowed to represent
the class, hut Saturday’s event will give
some of those who have not yet had a
chance to participate an opportunity to
show what they can do.
The relay was scheduled to be a half
mile, but Foster received word yesterday
afternoon that it had been changed to a
mile. This will necessitate a change in
I he plans and in the lineup of relay
men, which does not increase the chances
>f the freshmen winning.
Dodge and Wright, milers for the
Rooks, arc1 formidable contenders for
first place in that event, while Gearheart
and Crippen are to be feared in the
sprints. In the quarter mile, Stearns
)ids fair to place against the frosh. In
the field events, Garity is apt to cause
some uneasiness in the ranks of the
Ereshmen.
At all events, Foster’s men are in
?ood condition and are willing to do their
it most to bring the spoils of the contest
luck with them.
The events and the men who will par
ticipate in them follow:
100 yard dash. Cook. Ohio and Grilley
220 yard dash. Ohio and Grilley.
410 yard dash. Kisley and Covalt.
8,SO yard run. Beatie and McCone.
Mile, Gardiner. Grahm and Whitcomb
Low hurdles, Rosebraugh, Campbell.
Broad jump. Rosenberg. Spearow.
Relay, Risley, Rosebraugh, Cook and
',’ovalt.
High jump, Campbell, Rosenberg
Spearow.
Discus throw. McGraw. Parsons.
Shot put. McGraw, Parsons.
.Tavelin. Parsons.
Pole vault, Rosenberg. Spearow.
W. S. C. TRACKSTERS WIN.
