REVIEW OF l W. SHOWS YEAR OF MANY ACTIVITIES Change Made in Organization by Controlling Board With the close of the school semes ter, the Y. W. C. A. on the campus will complete an unusually active and successful year. Due to the increased membership which has approached the 600 mark, the association has been en abled to carry out new plans and widen its field service as never before. One of the interesting things of the year’s program was the national convention T^liich was held at Hot, Springs, Ar kansas, April 20 to 27, to which Glyde Srhuebel was sent as the local delegate. Miss Schuebel is a junior in the ro mance language department and has been very active in Y. W. work during her three years in college. In con nection with the convention, a number of sales were conducted by the “Y” girls to raise funds to defray the ex penses of the delegate. These included the sale of pies, pop-corn balls, college bars, and candy. Mix Is Reviewed On# of the earliest events of the year was the annual Y. W.-Y. M. Mix, which was held at the new Armory in October. This was one of the big got, togethers of the fall term and was at tended by a capacity crowd. A six-weeks course of Bible study discussions was conducted in the living orgnizations under the auspices of the association, with faculty members and townspeople as speakers, and a church cooperation drive, when the attendance at the Sunday school Bible classes of the various churches increased 100 per cent in six weeks. A conference of the Student Volun teer association, with delogtaes from seven Oregon colleges and universities, was held on the campus April 28, 29 and .'10. The 1,110 service chid, or Ralph Spearow is president, was or ganized during tiie year and is com posed of all those students who are in terested in some form of social or missionary service as a profession after leaving school. Non-Dancers Entertained A new feature of the association’s social work was the series of parties given at the Y. M. hut on the nights of student body dances, for all students not wishing to attend the dances. These had an average attendance of 100 to 150. The last of the series was held on the night of the Junior Prom. Organizations which liavo used the Bungalow for teas, meetings, and social affairs during the year include: Kwa mn. Tie Nil, Spanish club, French club, ilutaxian, senior class, Theta Sigma Phi,-Oregon club, and Mask and Bus kin. An inter denominational conference with field representatives from the different churches of the northwest, met: on the campus during November. Association Is Reorganized The association was also completely reorganized, the old cabinet, system giving way to a new department sys tem, which is expected to more fully meet the growing need of the “Y”. The Bungalow was refurnished from the proceeds raised by various sales and drives. lad,nine West was elected president for next year at the annual election held on April 12. Her election was announced at. the banquet held the same evening. No definite plans have been an nounced for next' year as yet. UNIVERSITY GROWTH (Continued from pago uw) oulv state prestige pul prestige in tin- j middle wrst uiul oast. Plant Increases Eight-fold When President Campbell came to the 1’Diversity I he entire campus was not more than 1- aeres in si/e; today il is more than !HI aeres. The buildings at that time were lieady, Villnrd, Friendly hall, Met'lure amt the old gvmuasium for women. Within reeent vein's buildings have been added that now make the total value of rumpus buildings over $1,1150,(100, as compared to the value in 100- of $155,000. President Campbell has achieved success not only in gaining material things for the school, but has succeed ed also iu gaining support throughout ( the state in times of stress when ref erendum measured threatened the fu ture of the school. Eight or ten times the president has had to go out in the state and fight almost for the life of the institution on appropriations. The present status of the institution shows how well he has succeeded. OREGON DEBATERS (Continued from page one) Earle FJeischmann took the honors; in 1!C8 Abo Rosenberg, a luw student in ♦ he University, won the prize; in 1920 Fred Coley, an economics major, took first, while last year Ralph Hoeber, also an economies major, who is at' present an assistant in the economics department, took first. The Failing Ueekman oratorical contest for seniors on Juno 15 will close the forensic year for 1922. The alumni debate contest, an an nual affair held to determine the best debater of the year, carries a prize of *25 which is donated by the alumni. Those debaters who try for the prize are given two days to prepare on the general question. Two hours before the start of the debate they are assigned to either the affirmative or negative side of the question. Teams are not organized, only individual speeches be ing considered, by the judges. Debate Future Bright The future for debate and oratory! looks bright for next year, according to Professor Thorpe. He says, “I look for a big year in speaking, as none of this year’s men’s team are graduating and there is an abundance of new ma terial.” Mr. Thorpe also stated that doughnut debates should be continued, as they bring up more men and create a moro general interest in forensics on the campus. If present plans materialize a men s debating team will make a trip east, some time after New Year’s. However, should Stanford’s plan for inter-sec tional debates with the coast cham pions meeting eastern champions be realized, it is possible that this plan will not be carried out. With the pres ent outlook in debate it is probable that Oregon may have a chance to rep resent the west. A triangular debate for women, including Washington, California and Oregon, is being planned to replace the dual debate between Washington and Oregon. Prospects for girls’ varsity debate next year are not so bright, as three veterans are graduating. Elaine Cooper and Wanda Daggett are to be awarded a shield signifying three years on the varsity. Glenn Frank will also be lost as a debater, as sho finishes school this year. WORK OF HEALTH SERVICE (Continued from page one) work. Such an infirmary would per mit the performing of operations other than emergency, for a nominal foe to students. "It should bo equipped so that whatever we do or attempt, will bo done well,” said Dr. Livingston. Educational Basis for Health One of the aims of the health ser vice, the doctor said, will be a fur thering of the education of the stu dents in health, hygiene and sanita tion, so that they will become influ ences for better health in their com munities and to their families. Put ting health on an educational basis will bring into piny preventive and reme dial measures ami will teach the stu dent that there is more to health than simply taking medicines. Dr. Livingston also said that a more complete history of the students who come to the dispensary for medical care will be taken. This will bring quicker results, as cases can be carried on from the last visit of the patient and there is no overlapping of treat incut s or repot it ions, lu line with this are plans for making more thorough examinations of the students who come for aid and in doing everything as perfectly as possible.
