‘Educationally Healthful”—Actively Helpful.
“In their major effort for self-preservation the endowed colleges
find themselves hardly at all in the hands of their legally appointed
governing boards, but in those of more or less self-appointed (albeit
officially anointed) graduate groups. Thus, although chartered in
tentionally and with carefullest prevision for insuring autocracy in
their control, the endowed eolleges are, willy nilly, moving in the
direction of pure democracy. . . .
“In college, the trustees have submitted to such weakening of their
basic authority as is virtually tantamount to their abdication. The
colleges are in the hands of the arbiters of their financial futures—the
general body of their graduates. Whether or not this situation is
educationally healthful remains to be seen. Even if it is not, the
time for applying remedies has passed. . . .
“One outcome seems sure, the tendency toward actual, if not nom
inal, democracy of determining influence in the endowed colleges will
bring about an increasing similarity between them and the emphati
cally democratic, tax-supported institutions.
“The distinctness of purpose, the loftiness of standard, the in
dividuality of viewpoint and method, once assumed to be the dis
dinguishing features of the endowed colleges—and to many minds
their only excuse today for being—are threatened with extinction.
The above editorial from the Boston Evening Transcript was in
spired by the fact that more money lias been raised in this country
during the past three years for the purposes of higher education, than
in any other three years in history, and that most of this money has
come from loyal alumni of their alma maters. In addition to raising
the funds necessary the alumni have taken an active part in the dis
position of them.
During Homecoming here last fall, President Campbell launched
a campaign for alumni endowments for the University, pointing out
that new buildings now needed here would cost at least a million and
a half dollars, and that they cannot be provided for by the millage
tax for years to come. A new library, an auditorium, a science build
ing and a men’s gymnasium are among the buildings needed most at
present.
I'resident lampoon may or may noi nave mowgm m me vumuuic
sorvieo he was «loin^ to the University in launching this campaign
from the standpoint of cementing alumni loyalty and spirit. The
Boston newspaper has taken into account the great benefit to the
endowed colleges only, but by the endowment plan for the University
it can be plainly seen that in the administration of *he many import
ant policies the alumni can take a hand by this means.
The alumni of Oregon should take an active part in the affairs of
the institution, and what could be more desirable from the standpoint
of all who have the Oregon Spirit at heart than to have the University
more in the hands of its “graduate groups” than in the hands of
“its legally appointed governing boardt”
The Emerald will hazard the prediction that not only will such
participation by the alumni be “educationally healthful” from the
angle of scholarship but that it will likewise attain the desired height
in quality production, from the entire aspect of a liberal education.
The spirit of a loyal alumni group will permeate the prep school
athlete and the student interested in activities to such an extent that
commercialism need never be thought of when the selection of the in
stitution for continuing their education comes before them. A liberal
education is built upon student activities as well as classroom work.

INK WOMEN SWIMMERS
ARE REINS DEVELOPED
Girls’ Organizations Entering
Teams for Meet
The women’s swimming classes of the
school of physical education have turned
out already this year several expert
swimmers and many others who are on
the way to being finished products in
ac^fTiatic feats, according to instructors
in the swimming department. In every!
way the progress of the women in the j
pool compares favorably with the men’s
classes which succeeded in teaching about
25 students to swim last term. Approxi
mately 30 women who, at tne beginning
of the year, could not swim a stroke, are
now on the way to being good swimmers
and many of these arc entering in the
women’s swimming meet to be held in
the near future.
Last year over 100 women were taught
to swim by the swimming department,
and many of these are being entered it
the events this year. There are still,
many girls who are unable to master the
art, but progress is noted in every case
where at least three hours a week are
spent in the pool.
Much interest involving extra practice 1
is being displayed at present over tin
swimming meet. Teams have already ]
been chosen by the different organize-!
turn and the following houses have signi '
fied their intention of entering a team;
Susan t'ampbell. Alpha Phi, Delta Zeta.
Kappa Theta, Hendricks Hall, Oregon
( lub and Gamma Phi Beta. Several
others have announced that they will j
have a team ready, but they have not ;
yet announced their names.
The events of the meet will include
one length races with the breast stroke,
the crawl and the trmlgeon and free
style stroke. Diving will constitute one
of the leading events as well as strokes
I for form. There will also be a relay
! race, but the teams have not yet been
chosen.
The schedule for the meet will be
drawn up as soon as all entries art' in.
The meet will probably take place within
the next two weeks.

COURSE IN LIFE SAVING
TO BE GIVEN IF MEN SIGN
Those Passing Red Cross Test
to Get Certificate
The school of physical education is
considering opening a class in life-sav
ing if a sufficient number of men sign
up for it in the near future, says Ger
ald Barnes, swimming instructor. The
course was offered about a month ago,
but at that time there was apparently
no interest in the subject, and it was
abandoned. Since then there have
been several inquiries about the class,
and four or five men have definitely j
stated that they will sign up if such
a course can be given.
According to Coach Barnes a great
deal of interest should be shown among
the swimmers of the University in such
a course, as it will be the aim to teach
all the best methods of carrying a
drowning person in the water, the meth
ods cf breaking holds which drowning
persons instinctively take, and also the
ways of reviving a partly drowned per
son after he has been taken to shore.
The present plan of the course is to
award Red Cross life saving certifi
cates to all persons who, after a cer
tain amount of specified instruction,
are able to pass the Red Cross test:
for life savers. Edwin Durno, and Ger
ald Barnes, both of whom have had a
great deal of experience in this line, |
are to conduct the examinations, and
Coach Barnes pointed out that they
are going to make the test an especially 1
rigorous one, and will not let any per
son through who is not able to go out
r.ml do real work in life saving.
At least 10 men will be needed for
the formation of a class, so all those
wishing to take the course should see
Coach Barnes as soon as possible and
arrange with him for periods.
The class is one of the most practical
that nan be offered by the school, and
Coach Barnes points out that the men
faking it will get more out of it than
from any sort of uninstructed swim
ming, and requests that any men who
wish to take it whether advanced swim
mers or not should come and see him.

Photography Is an Art
Many of our customers wonder at the results we are able
to produce. They say that our photos are more than mere
picutres and wonder why we are different from the average
studio.
The truth is that our studio is not much different from the
average. We use cameras, just like the others. Our portraits
are different, because of the personal element; retouch, cor
rect exposure and printing. Then we have wonderful success
in posing our subjects.
All in all it is our ability to produce better photo-portraits,
that gives us a claim on your patronage.
