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. Scores
of his old friends here are anticipating !
his visit in Eugene with considerable
pleasure.
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.

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.
