How About the Faculty?
THE suggestion has been made that the faculty members of
the University should attend assemblies regularly. The Emerald
believes the suggestion a good one. Last week we urged that every
student in the University turn out for the assemblies, this week we
are urging that the members of the faculty do likewise.
Both students and faculty were present last Thursday, and
assembly was made even more impressive by the fact. Both are
necessary to the welfare of the institution. Both are vitally inter
ested in the University. There is an added incentive for the faculty
members to attend assembly when the student body is on hand en
masse and the student body gets an incentive from the fact that
the faculty attends in a body.
A regular place for the faculty was provided in the assembly
hall last year, but this place was not always filled. A regular place
should be provided again this year, and it should be filled with a
100 per cent attendance.
First yell practice got away to a flying start on Hayward field
yesterday and if the sound that arose from the thundering thousand
is an indication, the Oregon Spirit is with us. We think it an indica
tion.
STUDENT DRAMATIC CROUP
WILL SOON MAKE DEBUT
Many Plays to be Staged By
Company This Year
A dramatic company composed of 25
students will make its debut on ihe
campus for the coming college year dur
ing the first two weeks in November.
“Why Murry 1” by Williams, will
very likely be the first play produced
in Guild hall this fall. “The Devil’s
Disciple” and “Caesar and Cleo
patra,” by George Bernard Shaw; “The
Great Galeoto,” by Jose Echegaray
Eisaguirre; and “The Two Wetherbys,”
by St. John Hankin, will be produced.
Other plays will be added to this list
as the year goes on.
Several of last year's performers will
be seen again this year in the senior
company. The company is composed
of Irene Stewart, Doris Pittenger,
Elizabeth Metis, Margaret Nelson,
Claire Keeney, Verne Fudge, Norvell
Thompson, George StearnB, and Kenneth
Armstrong.
The members of the junior company
are Helen Enoch, Ruth Harman, Sedye
Eecles, Lorna Coolidge, Hildagarde Rep
inen, Thelma Gannaway, Mabel Gilham,
Darrell Larsen, Charles Fish, Arthur
Johnson, Edwin Keech, John Elcatead,
Delbert Faust, Virgil Mulkey and Joe
Clark.
A group of plays have been s 'looted
that it is thought, will take well on
the campus.
MILITARY DEPARTMENT
HAS SOD MEN ENROLLED
Twenty-five in Advanced Work
Get $15 a Month
IMPORTANT, SAYS MAJOR
Upperclassmen Urged to Keep
On With Courses
Approximately 500 men are now en
rolled in the military department of
the University, according to figures
given out by Major Raymond C. Baird,
commandant. Of these, 25 students are
taking up the advanced military work,
which is opcu to upperclassmen. Major
Baird wishes to urge every upperclass
man possible to proceed with the ad
vanced work after having finished the
elementary drill in his freshman and
sophomore years. This advanced work,
he says, is not only very helpful to the
student, but is also a very beneficial
aid, in other respects. The govern
ment pays the students who take up
this work, nearly $15.00 a month; be
sides issuing them clothing and allow
ing them 3 credits in University work
toward graduation.
Four Win Oommissions
1-ast year alone, four University
graduates were given commissions as
reserve officers. They were: Arnold
Koepke, John Gamble, William Allyn,
and Byron Garrett.
In this work the students are given
work in leadership; acting as company |
commanders and non commissioned of
ficers. The juniors are instructed in
military law, while the seniors are given
military history. Both very useful
courses. During the winter term the
juniors haVe 2 hours recitation and
3 hours laboratory in field engineering.
The seniors are instructed in minor
tactics, being given local, theoretical
problems to work out.
Machine Gun Taken Up
In the spring term the juniors are
given a thorough course in handling
machine guns and also further “experi
ence in leadership. The seniors, dur
ing this term, are further instructed in
practical minor tactics. At the end of
the course, all those who have success
fully completed it are given a com
mission, as second lientenant in the
United States reserve officers corps.
These reserve officers, during time of
war, are immediately assigned to a
company of the reserve corps, as com
missioned officers'
Another point that Major Baird
brought out is the fact that if more stu
dents enrolled in this work, it would
establish a large government payroll
right here in the University; which
could easily total several thousands of
dollars a year.

FRATERNITIES TO SAVE
Market Association Formed, With
View to Cheaper Buying
Berkeley, Oct. 4.,—(P. I. N. S.)—
With the object of buying commodities
from wholesale dealers in order to re
duce expenses, the fraternities of the
Pniversity of California have formed
the Inter-Fraternity Market association.
In doing this the fraternities will save
at least 15 per cent on their expenses.
The different sororities of the Uni
versity of California have been invited
to discuss the advisability of joining
the association. This will bring about
even greater saving as better terms can
be made with the wholesalers.
WIRELESS NEWS IS PLANNED
Universities of the Middle West are
considering the feasibility of an inter
collegiate wireless news service. This
would mean that colleges and univer
sities within a certain radius would own
and operate their own wireless appara
tus, thus enabling them to exchange
nows with each of the other institu
tions every day.
