Scott Nijfht Editor This Issue Fred Micbelson The College Girls’ Education In announcing a contest for which a substantial prize award is to be made for the best answer to the question, “Is the Present-Day College Education of Real Value to the College Girl?,” a well-known Western periodical has raised a point which has ceased to be debat able. In discussing the present situation of overcrowded institutions of higher education the suggestion is made that there are three ways open of limiting the attendance—these are the collection of a heavy tuition fee, a method abhorrent in a democratic country; raising the standards of admission for all students; or follow the example ol Stanford University and limit the number of women students. It is readily admitted that there is congestion in the Western universities, and that this is a healthy sign. What greater tribute could be paid to Western civilization? But here in this University which relies on the support of the taxpayers of the State for its very life, no high tuition fees or selective methods can be initiated which will detract from the equal opportunity for all who are able to profit from it to take advantage of higher education. Criticism as to the value of this higher education to the average girl of today is not slow in forthcoming, yet its source is the same from whence comes the sensational portrayal of the wicked co-ed. The college girl is ready for life, whether it be in the home or in a profession. The cult ural training she receives makes for better homes and a higher environment for her children. 11 she seeks a professional career she is on a par with the male, with whom she must compete in life. The opportunities of higher education cannot be denied the masses,—whether the masses be made up of women or of men or of both. Where congestion is caused in Western universities by the nut lira! desire for higher education, this congest ion must be met with added facilities. And these added facilities which will mean a higher type of man and woman, a more perfect home life and envir onment for the future generation, must be provided by the loyal citizens of the great State who are the taxpayers. Offering Something Different With the state superintendent of public instruction and u num ber of the leading high school educators throughout the State readily responding to the invitations sent them to take an active part in the conference of high school student body officers to be held here this week, something more than a mere confab of the prep schoolers is promised. Student organization, relation of athletics to higher schol arship, and a thorough discussion of the problems confronting the students of the high schools will occupy a large share of the pro gram for tin' conference and will prove of exceptional value to the representatives in attendance. In this age of allowing the students in the Universities to solve their own problems of organization and administration, the proper beginning in high school preparation is highly important. An honor sentiment instilled in athletes which will eliminate the dangers of commercial athletics in high schools and colleges is one of the great est of the problems; others include a natural desire for a higher edu cation and its advantages rather than a continuance of the school master tendency to drive, which is now prevalent in most high school instructional work. The high school cannot be overlooked as the strongest block in the foundation of a desire for higher education. With the proper senti ment instilled there the desire will grow of its own pure volition. Hut even where a college education is not the goal sought by the high school student, much can be accomplished in raising the efficiency of the standard maintained in high school education.

POMONA GLEE FEATURES HIGH-CLASS HARMONY Director Lyman Formerly Dean of Music at Oregon; Tickets on Sale for Concert Tuesday Night Tickets go on sale today (Wednes day) for the concert of the Pomona college glee club, which sings at the Woman’s building next Tuesday night under the auspices of the University of Oregon men's glee club. The Pomona glee club, which has a reputation for producing programs of almost professional quality, is on a four weeks’ tour. The director, Pro fessor Ralph TT. Lyman, is head of the department of music at Pomona college ] of Claremont, California, and was for merly dean of music at Oregon.

The program features high class har mony, with enough snappy encores and stunts to make it interesting. Ord Rohannan, a San Francisco music critic, made the following statement after hearing the Pomona club: “The pro gram was so masterfully built that it is hard to comment on any particular number, one cannot decide whether the climax of excellence was reached in the (dub rendition of “Reveries,” in the hilarious Lime Kiln club, or in the weird tribal ghost dance.” A 'native Hawaiian trio, students at ! Pomona, are features of the club’s pro gram. DEPARTMENT IS PRAISED BY FEDERAL BOARD MAN Dr. T. A. Storrey Commends School of Physical Education for Efficient Work Accomplished Here Dr. T. A.

END OF WORLD postponed on several pervious occasions now MAY COME FROM the terribly insidious bete noire known as FLAPPER FOLLY By CABNY The end of the world approaches! Not long ago those of us who are in tellectuals should have denied this sol emn fact with much vehemence, but now be have beheld the lurid luminos ity of reality spread over the universe. Not long ago we floundered down the nebulous channels of mediocre human existence with a cataleptic flounder, but now we are wise to mankind. Bear ing on high the torch of a renovated and hypertrophied mentality, we come forth to announce flat-footed that we are in the prophet business. It is with a feeling of dejection and remorse that I announce the untimely end of the earth. It is nearly a million years older than the boarders who in fest it at the present writing, yet with all that head start it has fallen far behind some of us. Thus, we who are worthy are able at this time to give nut the exclusive story of the approach ing doom. We are in a position to state with absolute assurance that the grand, final wind-up has but one cause only— the flapper. General oblivion has been advertised on several previous occasions by sooth sayers, seers and prophts, some false and some foolish. Singularly, their forecasts have not materialized to any noticeable extent, and much inconven ience has resulted. Many reservations to the Islands of the Blessed have been cancelled because the earth has refused to cease to function at specified times. But now we are wiser than our pro phetic fathers, and we perceive with eagle-eyed vision that the slender, sinu ous, sylph-like, last straw, the flapper, will break the back of creation. Now that humanity trembles before the approaching bust-up, it is only fair that it should be presented with a com plete understanding ns to the whvforos and wherefores of the flapper’s being the bete noire of the race. Though other theologians of note, as well as architects, philosophers, pugilists, psy chologists, and savants have attacked the problem in the penetrating efful gence of robust intellects, their findings have been visionless withal. On the other hand, my own conclusions in the case are published only after an as siduous perusal of the works of Demo critus. von Bernhardi, Taussig, Harold Bell Wright, "Elinor Glyn, and other great men. Consequently. I am pre pared to bring much to light concerning the flapper. Here at the University, the hotbed of vigorous and untrammeled thought, we have come to regard her as a ter rible menace to higher education. Among our men there are some, the ; . rabble, who do not matter, but there are others who matter ubiquitously and unanimously. They are the ultimate, the summa summarum of masculinity. Their high and intellectual br^ws are surmounted by oleaginous mops, math ematically dressed. Olive drab breeches, IT. S. A., Model 1017, are draped upon them and tastefully matched with deli cately colored and hand embroidered golf sox. Appareled thus, in all their glory, stepping high like a blind horse, with much abandon and eclat they sally forth to conquer. Yet the flapper is a sinister shadow across their trail. The world does not appreciate the heroic soul of the aforementioned type of young man. The world is surely stupid, for what is more elevating than to see him on a radiant afternoon of spring employing his golden hours in shaking a wicked hoof on some sorority porch f What is more ennobling that to behold him tripping down the broad highway of life, followed by admiring small boys, bill collectors, and profan ity? Yet the flapper, the evil, insidi ous, designing flapper would make a plaything of his mighty heart! What is the poor thing to do? In order that the race may be pro tected, then, I have given this detailed exposition concerning the flapper. In fact, I could continue indefinitely, enumerating many more of her evils, but I have already demonstrated con clusively that her actions and her de meanor will bring the world to an un timely and premature end. No statement has been made in this merciless revelation of truth that I am not prepared to prove. Therefore it will be well to avoid drawing me into a controversy concerning her, since my diagnosis is final, and I’ll not listen to anything further. DON ORPUT IS MARRIED Margaret B.
