I Benefiel and Howe to Uphold University Stand in Stanford Case Graduate Manager Jack Periefiel and Professor If. ('. Howe, Oregon’s represen tatives to the Pacific Coast Conference Athletic association, teft yesterday af ternoon for Portland where a meeting of representatives of all members of the conference is being held today to deter mine what shall be done in the Stanford ' ease. This case deals with a post season foot ball game which Stanford has scheduled with the I niversity of Pittsburgh for December '.'10. The reason for complaint of the game is that it will intcrefor with attendance at tin* annual New Years championship game which is scheduled under tin' direction of conference of ficials in the future, and is to lie taken j ‘Hit of the hands of the Tournament of Poses committee, which has handled.it for the last few years. Stanford athletic directors maintain that they are in the right in this case and should be allowed to schedule games as they desire. The officials further state that they will withdraw from the confer ence rather than cancel the proposed game. • Conference Is Threatened Drastic action by the members of the conference assembled at Portland today might mean the dissolution of the con ference as it is hard to believe that Cal ifornia will stand by the rules of the conference if it means the giving up of the big annual game with Stanford. This is the second time in the last two years that the southern institution has como in contact with (lie conference rul ings, ns last year Stanford, California and Washington made an attempt to take over active operation of the conference by forming what they termed “(lie big three.’’ This soon blew over though as the three institutions, although among the most powerful on (ho coast, found they would be unable to dictate. Stanford is now jibing with the rulings again and if action is taken lo cancel the game slates she will withdraw. About (he only way to make (hem re consider (he question would be to have all other members of (lie conference call off all scheduled games with Stanford and refuse to schedule others. This would no doubt prove effective, but most of the colleges would not be willing to go to such extremes, so it looks ns if the southern school is going to get away with the! game. Division Is Proposed One way to settle these annual squab bles with the California schools would be to divide the conference into two parts having the northern part include the schools in Washington and Oregon, thus eliminating the necessity of long trips and unnecessary expense. The win ners in the two divisions could then moot to sot tic the coast championship, the winner of that game then meeting a team , from the Hast in the nnnual Past-West classic. An arrangement of this sort would not only serve to cut down expenses but i would eliminate much of the quarreling over schedules, and would also make the work of the conference much easier iin it is verv bulky and unwieldy at present. The California schools under this ar 1 raiigenient could then do their quar reling among themselves and would prob- I ably quit it altogether. FINE ARTS TEACHERS* PERSONAL LOSS HEAVY Mr. Fairbanks and Miss Korns Lose Valuable Collections in Fire During Summer • iVi-onal loss, which money cannot replace, is one of the disastrous effects of the tin which destroyed the Tine Arts building last summer. The entire art collection of Avard Fairbanks, an instructor in the depart ment, which he has kept since the be ginning oi his oan-or at the age of twelve v ars, vas completely destroyed. Vrofessot Fairbanks had kept a photo graphic record of all his work, includ ing pLitcs ami equipment for develop iag which also was destroyed. The ‘•Mother 11 roup/* which Mr. Fairbanks is modeling to be done in marble for th.' entrance to the Woinau *s building, was saved however. Janitor Baird, proved that he had the art department at heart, for in the midst of the con fusion lie dashed out with the model. Miss Kerns lost $.'!7o0 worth of val-. liable art piece*. Practically all of the equipment of the art building was de stroyed and until the new building is completed the art students will be work ing under many difficulties. The need for equipment is very great and the slo gan “Ten Million Dollars in Ten Years’’ is heartily supported by the Fine Arts department, according to Pro fessor Schroff. Professor Schroff hirn self was very fortunate, as all of his paintings were in the Woman’s building, except those which had been sent to Portland for sale. CONFERENCES TO HELP FROSH GET BEARINGS That the freshmen inf the University may start life on the campus, with as I little handicap as possible from unfam iliarity with University life and cus-1 toms, and especially with Oregon tra ditions, the student administration is instituting the custom this year of "a series of conferences, during the first! month of school, in which the older students, and the faculty members will be given the opportunity of meeting the members of the incoming class.

Thirty-nine other students went on probation at the end of the spring term for failure to make nine hours. Those of the 39 who have returned will flunk out in December, unless they sueceed in passing in 17 hours for the two terms. The foregoing figures were given out yesterday afternoon by the scholarship committee, which also added the follow ing statement: “There is no' University law or Uni versity custom requiring the scholar ship committee to re admit, after nine months, students who have flunked out. The rule (U. It. 90) reads: ‘A student dropped from the University under any of the provisions of this (scholarship/ code may petition the scholarship com mittee for readmission after nine calen dar months have elapsed.’ “This rule is permissive merely and not mandatory. Until about one year ago flunkouts were permanent. The faculty then modified the scholarship code to permit the scholarship commit tee to readmit at its discretion any stu dents of whose scholastic promise it is convinced, but usually the commit tee does not readmit.’’ The list of probationers and flur.k ers is commonly highest in the fall term: next highest in the winter term, and lowest in the spring term. The scholarship committee is said to con template going over the records of stu dents now in the University to deter mine whether those students whose av-' erages are very low should not be drop ped as well as those who failed to make seventeen hours in two terms. The University’s bachelor degrees are at present protected in part against the V student by the requirement that 140 hours must be above V before gradua tion. ’i he memhers of the scholarship com mittee are Dr. F. L. Shinn, Dr. Henry l>. Sheldon, Dr. E. C. Robbins, Miss Mary Watson, and the chairman, Dean Colin Dvment.
