Big Things to Come
At a time when there are those in the state of Oregon who seem
unashamed to go before the people of the state with pleas to cut the
support granted to higher education in an attempt to still the rising
clamor against high taxes, it is interesting, indeed, to read what
presidents of two of the country’s greatest institutions have said
of “The Enduring University.”
“Great universities have proved themselves to be among the most
enduring of human institutions,” says President Angell of Yale.
“Paris, Bologna, Oxford and Cambridge, to mention but a few, have
seen governments rise and fall, dynasties come and go, revolution and
counter-revolution sweep across the stage of the centuries. Yale
herself, born under a monarchy, has come to her highest development
under a democracy and has seen her sons play a noble part in three
great wars covering nearly a century and a half in time.”
President Lowell of Harvard has said: “Universities have out
lived every form of government- every change of tradition, of law,
and of scientific thought, because they minister to one of man’s
undying needs. Of his creations none has more endured through the
devouring march of time; and those who administer them, or teach
therein, are but living links in an ever-lengthening chain that
stretches forward measureless to the unknown.”
Oregon, here on this Pacific coast, to which the center of world
commerce is rapidly shifting even now, has surely, if it continues to
be rightly maintained, a very glorious and enduring future. And in
that thought there is consolation to tide one over these times when
men cry out against higher education because it COSTS. Yes, it
costs; it always will, but it PAYS.
STUDENTS’ PROBLEMS
TOPIC AT CONFERENCE
impressions of sehools wore formed from
wlmt ho roml about them. The ma
jority of the new* items concerning
Heiiools are storieN about the lighter ami
frivolous side of sehool activities, ho
pointed out.
Write for Public
“If you want to influence me you’ll
have to include me in your audience,
which at present you are not doing,”
he said. “Write everythin}} for me be
cause I include all other groups. You
must differentiate your ideas as to
what is news in order to do this.”
Mow tlu> first district organization
of the State Press Association was
formed at Newborn, last March, and
the value of the district organization
formed the basis of a talk by Robert
Brown, editor of the Newborn High
School Echoes. By the organization of
district associations to cooperate with
the state association the problems and
details effecting the editors can be
nuudi better handled, earlier and more
frequent meetings are possible, Hnd a
more definite code of ethics can be
worked out, said Brown.
High School Annuals
Lester Lemon, manager of the Cor
vallis high school “Chintimini,” taking
for his examples the annuals of Cor
vallis, Eugene, and Albany high schools,
offered three conclusions ns to "Mak
ing an Annual Pay for Itself without
Deficits.”
High school and college annuals are
fundamentally the same, said Inez
King, editor of the 1922 Oregana, in
her address, “Ilow College and High
School Annuals Are Alike and How
They Are Different.” Both published
with the same purpose in mind, to
chronicle the happenings of the sehool
year, she pointed out, but in the size,
coat, content, and the portions devoted
to engraving there is a vast difference.
Literary Work Less
College annuals pay little attention
to literary matter, emphasizing mainly
the history of the year, while the high
school annual contains much more liter
ary work, said Miss King. Probably
the gnat difference, according to Miss
King, is the far greater responsibility
of the editor of the college auniial.
Hollowing Miss King’s address, Miss
Olga Jackson, editor of the Albany
High Sehool Whirlwind, told of her ex
periences in editing a high school an
nual.
The afternoon session was a continu
ation of the discussion of problems of
the high school editor and manager
Dean H. D. Bheldon of the school of
education opened the meeting with a
talk on “The Educational Valuos ol‘
High School Publications.” “While in
hitfli school,” said the Dean, “a certairt
number of students like to range rather
freely through literature. On the other
hand the art of writing depends upon
having a knowledge of the subject you
are familiar with. This is what a high
school daily or weekly does for the
- student.
Sheldon Commends Newswriting
“Here in the University the best
1 English courses for those who are plan
ing to teach are those in newswriting.
“Then the matter of the high school
[annuals, they open u wider field in
jUieir publication of poems and short
stories, which work 1 believe should be
kept specially for the exceptional stu
dent. After all, the high school news
paper is the worth-while thing from the
point of view of Knglish.
“High school activities should be
passed around.”
Harry (1. Johnson, writer of Jeffer
son high school notes in the Oregonian,
spoke on “School Notes in Portland
■ Papers.”
Prank Jenkins, editor of the Morning
I Register, spoke on “High School Notes
[ from the Editor’s Point of View.”
I "School notes are news,” he said. “Our
j problem is how to get the news. We
! carry about a page of it every Sunday.
U is handled through the high schools
themselves, who take it entirely in hand
as a regular activity. Each one has a
regular staff, the members of which
choose reporters to do the work.
Register Wants School News
“We have made an effort to get
news of rural schools in Lane county.
"One of the fundamental points in
newswriting is the mention of names.
People like to read their names in the
paper. Complete courses in journalism
cannot be given in high schools, and [
school notes are of value in training
high school news gatherers.”
H D. Miller, instructor in printing
in The Dalles high school, gave his 1
views on "The Mechanical Aspects of
tht» High School Paper.” “The median- !
ic is every day me 'ting new problems. ’
Every good printer must be a student
himself. There is something new all
the time.” The Dalles high school !
paper is printed in the school.
“There are three things which pre
sent themselves as problems to the high
school pa per. The first thing is the
proper organisation from a mechanical
standpoint. Seeon 1 is the problem of j
producing a paper satisfactory to the i
student body. Third is ttie use of print I
;ng as an art.” j
Mimeographed Paper Commended
Miss Kva Nealon, editor of the On !
tral Pointer, Central Point high school. ■
told about her experiences in getting ((
out a mimeographed paper. She point
ed out that the advantages of such a
paper were that it is entirely a student
publication and that it is less expensive.
The nominating committee chose the
following nominees for office to be i
voted upon today. They are for presi
dent of the conference, Harry Johnson,
of Jefferson high school, Portland, and
Brighton Leonard, of Cottage Grove;
for vice-president, Lester Lemon, of
Corvallis, and Cecil Doll, of Marshfield;
for sdcretary-treasurer, Olive Parker of
Albany, and Viola Calvin of Hood
River.
WORSHIP OF WINNING
DECRIED BY SPEAKER
There is nothing in the constitution .
of the Athletic League of Oregon to i
keep the Portland schools from joining .
except that their membership would
prohibit them from playing any of the
Portland schools not members of the
league, according to facts brought out
in the discussion following the lecture
on athletics to the presidents’ confer
ence by A. C. Strange, principal of
Astoria high school, at the T. W. C. A.
bungalow yesterday afternoon. Repre
sentatives of Lincoln, Jefferson, and
Franklin high schools of Portland
spoke, expressing the general belief
that the present division was a cause
of misunderstandings and that some
other arrangement should be worked
out. Mr. Strange and others represent
ing the smaller high schools of the state
expressed themselves as very much in
favor of taking the Portland schools
into the league. |

one that we are now realizing—is the
need for the development of leaders.
If there is anything you can do in your
schools to make wise, safe and sane
leaders, that thing will be an invaluable
service to America,” Mr. Strange told
the delegates.
Regarding athletics there are two
classes in every community, Mr.
Strange declared. One class is made
up of spiortsmen, the other of sports.
It is this last class that would rather
win than be sportsmanlike, that causes
most of the cases coming up before the
athletic league arising out of the break
