f. M. REHIZES DEPMIUTMl New Organization Provides For Four Branches. BUDGET TO BE RAISED Membership Requirements to Be On Different Basis. The progress and usefulness of the campus Y. M. C. A. has made necessary the reorganization for the coming year on a departmental basis, in order to make it fit in with the increasing size of the University. During the past few years the number of active members and the importance of the “Y” as a campus or ganization have steadily advanced, and future plans are based on the principle of making it an even greater asset to the University. The work of the organization will be divided in'o four main departments, with a man at the head of each. These four, together with the officers of the “Y” will constitute the inner cabinet, which will handle all the details of administra tion. Under each of the four departments there will be a number of sub-commit tees. It is the plan to have each de partment head act as chairman of one committee in liis department, thus link ing him directly up with the work under his charge. Callaway Heads “Y.” The officers and department heads are as follows: Owen Callaway, president: Harris Ellsworth', vice-president; Bill Purdy, secretary; Dan Woods, treasurer; Norton Winnard, campus service; Ken neth Youel, community service; Roy Veatch, religious education; Harris Ells worth, administration. Membership will not be on the former ,$1.00 paid basis. Men will be asked to join the “Y” through their interest in it, and will sign a card to the effect that they will be active in promoting its ob jects on the University campus. Handbook to Be Issued. Plans of the new administration for the coming year include the putting out of a hand-book similar to that published last year, which will be given to the students, as they register next fall. The “Y” school will be stressed next year more than in the past. The need of connecting the work of the churches up with that on the campus is especially felt. One great criticism from outsiders that the moral and religious side of the ufn.lnui’t, Ufa iu fm-irnttCll (Inline his four years in college is to be overcome through the religious education depart ment of the organization if present plans carry. Another innovation will be the service committee, the purpose of which is to look after men outside of fraternities, in case of sickness, lonesomcness, or any thing of that nature. Religious Activity Planned. The campus advisory board plan will be continued for the coming year as has been followed in the past. A new method of church co-operation will be worked out completely before the opening of school next fall, and although jlans are not now final, it is hoped to establish religious secretaries, representing the in terests of the city’s churches on the campus. During the past year the “Y” had an active membership of 250. Six hundred j dollars was used for campus activities, special speakers, student hand-book, and contribution to international work. The larger part of the association work has been done without its name attached to it. and the credit placed elsewhere. CLASS MEMORIALS ON CAMPUS ARE MANY Continued from Page 14. -- happened to be in sight. This was the gift of the class of 1912. In the following year the senior foun tain made its debut on the campus, being sponsored by the members of the ’13 class. This is the one between Deady and the library. It serves the dual pur pose of beauty and utility, being much in demand for shirkers on campus day. The drinking fountain in front of the library was the gift of the class of 1920. A visitor in the Woman’s building sees ' on the wall at the landing of the stairway to the Alumni hall a marble tablet, in-1 scribed with the names of those who gave funds for the building’s construction as a : memorial for someone. Among these is that of the class of 1916, which gave $652.74 to the fund in memory of Owen W3ialen, a member of the class who lost his life in the Willamette river while canoeing. The class of 1917 also gave to the. Woman’s building fund, leaving $329.82 for this purpose, but this was not in direct memory of any one person. Many of the men in the class of ’18 were in the service when commencement time came around and thoughts of the war were uppermost in the minds of all. Those who remained in the class at the time voted to start a fund for a soldiers’ memorial of some sort, and a sum of money which now amounts to $480.76 was left with the University to be ap plied to the construction of a memorial when the time came. Many other memorials have been left by various classes, but it is difficult to trace them up. Among those not here tofore mentioned are the trees left by the clnsses of 1880, 1879, 1881, 1882, 1884, 1886, 1887 and 1888. Few of these trees bear any distinctive marking and only the old graduate sees anything of special interest in them. To him, how ever, they bear a message of bygone days old friendships and long past col lege days. For these memorials mark the place where a class stopped for a moment, took a lingering look into the past, and then stepped out into a new life, yet unforgetful of the old.
