    TALENTS OF CANDIDATES
FOR OXFORD DIVERSIFIED
Graduate Assistant and Two
Seniors Are Out
A diversity of talent, tastes, and ex
perience is to be found among the
three University candidates for the
Bhodes scholarship to Oxford.
If Arthur Hicks were to be success
ful in the examination he would use
the scholarship to enter the Honor
School of Modern Languages at Oxford,
in which he would continue work in
French, Spanish and Italian. Hicks
has had an unusual record of high
grades in the University, but this was
only a contributing factor in his selec
tion by the committee, as one of the
three to compete in the sta|e examina
tion. Hicks gave evidence to the com
mittee that he had done a great deal of
outside reading, and had broad intel
lectual interests.
If Norman Byrne were to go to Ox
ford he would take work in aesthetics
and criticism, with philosophy and lit
erature. Byrne is graduate assistant
in the department of philosophy. He
took his degree in mathematics. Byrne
has traveled extensively in Asia and
the South seas. During the war, in
1918, he was at Peking in the legation
service with the United States Marines.
Byrne’s attainments are not all of an
erudite or military nature. He, plays
several musical instruments.
Bemey Cox, at Oxford, would take
work in literature. Among seven ap
plicants at the first examination, Cox
was the only one who had had any
Greek. This subject, though no longer
required for admission to Oxford, is
by no means frowned on at that insti
tution. Cox was assistant in the rheto
ric department.
The three candidates will receive in
structions as to documents, from Prof.
W. C. Barnes tonight.
NORTHWEST RESOURCES
SUBJECT OF NEW COURSE
Water Power of Oregon and Columbia
River Basin Emphasized in Study
Given by A L Lomax
A new course, “BesourceB of the
Pacific Northwest,” is being given by
A. L. Lomax of the school of commerce.
The course especially emphasizes the
water power of Oregon and the Colum
bia river basin with its relation to
foreign industry.
The purpose of the course, according
to Mr. Lomax, is to familiarize the
student with the resources of Oregon
and the products of the Northwest.
Another purpose is to show the rela
tion of the hinterland, or back land,
to the main port of the region, Port
land being the port in this case. The
development of a port largely depends
upon the development of the hinterland,
said Mr. Lomax. The Pacific North
west is becoming known all over the
world, and the future business men and
women should have a knowledge of its
resources to enable them to talk to
eastern investors and visitors, he said.
The need for this knowledge is partic
ularly important because of the fair to
be held in Portland in 1925, when peo
ple from all parts of the world will be
present and questions concerning the
Pacific Northwest will have to be an
swered in an off-hand manner by Ore
gon residents.

musical program has alse been ar
ranged, and Germaine Dew will speak

EDUCATION MAJORS PUT
THEORY INTO PRACTICE

In order to give majors in the school
of education a chance to get practical
training in actual teaching methods the

take charge and put into practice the
theories they have been taught in the
class room.
At present over 35 instructors are
‘ ‘ farmed out ’ ’ among the schools of

number are doing work at the Univer

Seven students are doing side work
under the supervision of the public
school of music department. They are,
Margaret Phelps, Lucile Beggs, Evelyn
Buck, Dorothy Costello, Gwladys Keen
ey, Elizabeth Huff and Olga Wicksberg.
In order to form a corolation between
the principles which the department of
physical education has taught its stu
dents and the actual practice of using
these principles the department has
made arrangements to send practice
teachers in to the University high
school, Eugene Bible University, St.
Mary’s school and the various Eugene
public schools.

advanced physical education work are

NELSON QUITS SENIOR
POST; ABBOTT ELECTED
Woman Finds Presidency Unattractive
Due to Many Traditions; Track
Man Named in Stead
Duties of wielding the persuasive
paddle at events such as follow when
the senior bench is painted or leading
the sombrero wearers on the warpath
in tribal glory at traditional festivities
—to say nothing of growing a mus
tache and cultivating an appetite for
“fruit cakH’ proved too unattractive
to Helen Nelson, who laBt year achieved
the distinction of being the first woman
to be elected president of the senior
class. At a meeting of seniors last
aight Miss Nelson resigned and Leith
Abbott, former editor of the Emerald
and captain-elect of last year’s varsity
track team, was elected president of
the class in her stead.

ture as the first class function of the
year. A committee was appointed to
work out details of this festivity.
Dissatisfaction was expressed at .
the meeting at the way in which the ,
senior bench was recently cleansed after j
its outrageous treatment by some green ;
paint spreader. It is probable that '
freshmen will be called upon in the near
future to repeat the washing act.
Senior men made plans for their part
in the Underclassman Mix which will
be held Saturday. According to custom
senior men will act as policemen for
the event. An added feature of the
day will be upper lip inspection of all
senior men and the start of the annual
mustache growing contest for senior
men. Arthur Kuhnhausen was elected |
captain of police at the meeting.
