WOMEN JOURNALISTS GET
OUT ANNUAL ‘HANDSHAKE’
Velma Rupert Editor of Paper
Published for Alumnae
The third annual number of The
Handshake, official publication of the
local chapter of Theta Sigma Phi, wo
men’s national honorary journalistic
fraternity, went to press yesterday and
will be ready for circulation this morn
ing. The publication is edited by
Velma Kupert, and Mary Lou Bur
ton, associate editor, and is published
for the alumnae of the organization.
The third edition is a three-column,
four page ptablication.
The front page of The Handshake
contains news of what is going on
around the journalism department of
the University and the work done by
Theta, the local chapter, on the cam
pus during the past year. The feature
of the little sheet is a near full column
of rippling rhyme by some observer
which includes a thrust at the aspi
rations and expirations of the “active
gang.”
The remainder of the publication is
devoted to short letters received by the
active members from the alumnae, most
of whom are connected either directly
or indirectly with newspaper work. Ac
cording to the letters, the alumnae are
all making good at their chosen profes
sion. Two members of the chapter,
Frances Cardwell and Grace Edgington,
a member of the faculty who founded
the local chapter, have had short stories
accepted by magazines. Host of the
letters came from Oregon, a few come
from points all over the country and
one brings news of Lucile Saunders who
is on the staff of the Buenos Aires
Herald and also on the United Press
correspondence staff from the Argen
tine capital.
ONE FAMILY IN WILDS
SEEKS PRIVATE TEACHER
Interesting Opportunity Offered in
Eastern Oregon for Student
of University
Out in far Eastern Oregon are four
children ranging in ages from six to
eleven years who, because they are liv
i g too far away from a regular school,
must needs have a private instructor.
Which seems to be another case of the
mountain and Mohammed. The parents
of these children are offering a salary
of $60 a month, board and room, for
a teacher who will come prepared to
give the children instruction in ele
mentary school subjects. Fare to their
place of residence will alsc be advanced.
Communication has just been re
ceived at the president’s office from
the parents, to the effect that they
v desirous of employing a young wo
man who has had University training
+• act as tutor for the children, for the
icmainder of the year. School will be
be conducted in the children’s home,
where the instructor will live. Presi
dent Campbell, to whom the identity of
tie, parents is well known, is of the
opinion that this situation offers a very
interesting experience for some young
woman who cares to take up work of
this kind. Anyone interested in the
matter is requested to make further
inquiry at the office of the president.

PROPOSED BUILDING PLAN
MAY HELP FRATERNITIES
Or. Boynton Originates Idea
to Work on Bond Basis
A plan is under consideration where
by fraternities will be enabled to build
houses, paying for them in installments
covering a long period, according to
Dr. W. P. Boynton, of the physics de
partment. who is the originator of tho
plan. The plan would call for the co
operation of several houses, each house
issuing bonds covered by a mortgage
on the property. There would be nine
payments a year, which would cover
the interest, insurance and part of
the original debt.
A secretary hired by the houses would
have charge of the payments that might
arise. Dr. Boynton believes that a
group of the prominent business men of
the town could be interested in forming
a company to market the bonds. “The
payments,” he said, “could be figured
out so that they would finish at the
same time that the bonds would be due.
In case of the defaulting of one of the
fraternities, the company could either
sell the equity of the house or dispose
of it outright.” The building expenses
could be cheapened by contracting all
of the work to the same company.
Though nothing definite has been
done Dr. Boynton believes that it would
not be hard to put this plan into effect.

line of march passes through much
beautiful country.
