News Editor This Issue Ruth Austin Night Editor This Issue John Anderson Place the Blame Where It Is Due. In his recent address before the student assembly, Colin V. Dy- j ment, dean of the college of literature, science and the arts, declared that one of the evils which confronts us in making Oregon, “Our Kind of University,” is that of emphasizing to the freshmen that they must make nine hours to stay in college. The speaker analyzed the situation exactly; his keen perception has sensed one of the greatest difficulties in our present day college existence. Continuing, the Dean urged that we remedy this evil, declaring that instead of the assertion above, we should tell the freshmen they must n*ake sixteen hours to get a degree. The reason, as set forth by the speaker, why this custom is fast proving disastrous is because the former attitude but means a high mortality; the latter a better percentage of well-trained Americans. Here the speaker has analy zed the disastrous results sure to follow in the Avake of such a prin ciple. The student does not need to look far to find an example of what has resulted in the past. How many students of your acquaintance have gradually lost interest in their work, because they have come to realize that they have been getting by on the nine-hour limit with possibly two or three hours to spare each term? ( Here is the point where this principle can be put into practice. There is no doubt that a large percentage of the students begin their accounting of the hours they will make in the term, a few days prior to the final exams. There is likewise no doubt that these students usually size up the situation with an estimate of whether or not they can make the required nine hours to stay in college. A student may ash his college chum about some of the details, and his answer is al ways the same, “Nine hours or you can’t stay in school.” But this sort of an arrangement is bound to become tiresome. In the junior year the student arouses from the lethargy only to find that it will still require three years of study before the required num ber of hours for a degree can be obtained. Discouraged he drops out of college. 1 l,-re then is clearly another case of getting started right. Cast off the idea of making nine hours to stay in college and take up the better idea, that of making sixteen hours to get a degree. And in the wonts of the speaker, “a better percentage of well trained Americans will be the result . Oregon is Host Today. Governor Hen W. 01 cot t., Oregon’s executive, and Admiral Henry T.

AUDIENCE IN VILLARD IS HELD IN SPELL BY ' VAN GORDONS’ VOICE (Continued from page one) ■which was charmingly played by the singer, and “Brunnhilde’s Cry” from “Die Walkure” by Wagner, brought the audience almost to its feet, so stirringly was this dramatic “ Cry of the Warrior Maiden” given. Fire, brilliancy of tona and unlimited vocal power characterized her singing of the number which closed a most enjoyable program. Alma Putman, the accompanist, un fortunately did not rise to the plane that was demanded by Mme. Gordon’s sing ing. She seemed listless and played in \ a very stereotyped manner. She is no doubt capable of better work than was ■ displayed on this occasion. She shared \ the applause with the singer. A ♦♦♦ ♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦« A A A A «f<M Right By Every Test!
