COMMITTEE ASKS
FACULTY TO MEET
Special Session Is Urged to
Decide Date for Return
to Semester System
Beeommendation that a special fac
ulty meeting be called to consider the
most feasible time for changing the
present term system back to the old
semester plan is incorporated in the
report which will bo submitted by the
special committee recently appointed
by President Campbell to consider ac
tion on the change as voted. The com
mittee, according to Dean W. G. Hale,
chairman, made no definite report on
the time or method of change, but may
have a few suggestions to offer at the
faculty meeting. Other committee mem
bers are Dean J. F. Bovard and Pro
fessors Conklin, Howe, and Gilbert.
The report will bo submitted to Pres
ident Campbell at once, and it is ex
pected that a meeting of all those en
titled to give the matter consideration
will be called sometime this week.
The action of the meeting is not
expected to be final, states Dean Hale,
but it is hoped that the matter can
be cleared up enough so that the ar
rangement of details of the change can
be cleared up at the regular meeting
in February.
It was also admitted that the issue
is by no means settled, since the time
of the change was left open. This
leaves two avenues open: those opposed
may succeed in having the change in
definitely postponed, or if any faculty
members now supporting the semester
plan, change their views the matter
can again be brought up for further ac
tion.
Supporters of both tho term and se
mester plans have been more or less
concerned over the attitude of the med*
ical school, and tho possible effect it
will have on its operation. Although
it is known that the faculty members
in Portland are taking a great deal of
interest in the proposed move, it is
the opinion there that since the opera
tion of tho medical school does not de
pend on tho University in any way, it
matters little whether the term or se
mester plan is definitely adopted. Fac
ulty members and others here have ox
pressed the belief that the medical
school faculty should be represented in
the final voting on the issue, but it
does not appear probable that the med
ical men will insist on a vote.
Briefly, the matter can be summed up
thus:
The faculty has adopted tho old se
mester plan, and discarded the present
method. The time for the change has
not been sot. The time of change, or
any reconsidering of the action, will be
discussed at a special faculty meeting
to be held this week. Final action on
the whole matter will come up at tho
next regular faculty meeting, which
will be held in February.
RURAL SURVEY GIVEN IN
COMMONWEALTH REVIEW
Faculty and Students Make Extensive
Studies of Country Communities
for January Publication
A general survey of life in the rural
communities is given in tlio January is
srtie of “The Commonwealth Review,”
'which lias just been placed on the li
brary shelves. This is one of a series
Of subjects which have been treated
in the publication, of which I)r. F. It.
Young of the socilogy department is
managing editor, by the faculty and;
students of the social science courses.
The last few editions have treated
the subjects of “Taxation,” “Unem
ployment,” and “Consolidation of
Schools.” Among authorities who have
appeared in recent numbers are F, G.
Young, A/.ile Howard, Charles J. Bul
lock, Earl Kilpatrick, and Charles Glen
Smith.
Dr. Young writes on the question of j
“Realization of Cooperation, Fellow
ship, and Life Enrichment in the Ore
gon Rural Community.” The theme of j
this paper is that the farmer should
have as much leisure and as many
means of getting together as the people |
in the city without some of the counter
attractions of their city friends.
The “Commonwealth Review” origin
ated from a series of commercial con- ;
feronees, ten or twelve in all, legisla- j
five in nature, at which leading author-j
ities provided discussions and papers on
public questions. These papers needed
a wider distribution, so the Review
was started to give publietv to the pro
ceedings of the commercial conferences. !
During war times everyone was so en- j
grossed in national questions that the
conferences were discontinued. Later,
the organization of state commerce nat
urally assumed the sphere of these con
ferences, but the Review continues to:
discuss topics of broad interest.
FOREIGNERS TO HAVE PARTY
The Eugene chapter of the Daugh
ters of the Revolution have planned to
give a party for the foreign students
of the University in the Woman’s
building on February !) at 3:30 in the
afternoon. The students will furnish
the program with speakers and music;
as the main attractions. At the party
last year given for the foreign students,
about 25 people attended and enjoyed
a pleasant afternoon.
THREE TEAMS TIED IN
LEAGUE 2 COMPETITION
j Extra Game Necessary to Decide Who
Will play Hendricks Hall for
Do-Nut Championship
I Oregon club added greater complica
1 tions to the semi-finals of league two
by making a 17 to 14 score against the
Kappa hoopers in last night’s game.
Monday, the Theta team won from the
Kappas in a slow but steady and hard
fought contest which resulted in a score
of 17 to 3. 'fhree teams, the Alpha
Phis, Thetas, and Oregon club, still re
main in the league with but one defeat
against them. To determine the cham
pions of this league two games must
be played, the Theta tossers being
scheduled to re-play Oregon club to
day. The winners of this game will
then play the Alpha Phis, the victor
ious team becoming the champions. A
game with Hendricks hall, the winners
in league one, will then be arranged
with the prospective victors of the sec
ond league to decide the campus cham
pionship in do-nut basketball.
The turn-out for class practice yester
day was comparatively small, due to
the fact that few players knew of the
recent schedule. All girls interested in
making a class team are urged to come
out for practice at 5 o ’clock. Class
games with O. A. C. have been shoved
a week ahead and will be played Feb
ruary 24.
The lineup for yesterday’s game was
as follows:
Oregon Club Kappa
R. MacGregor .C.M. Flegel
C. Howells .SC.M. Buren
K. Sartain.G....M. Nicolai
C. Cheadle.G.D. McKee

MANY CREDITS EARNED
IN EXTENSION DIVISION
Zoe Marie Hager and Charles F. Stein,
Teaching in Outside Schools, Earn

Two students of the extension divi
sion have virtually finished their work
for dogrees from the Unlvesrity. Miss
Zoo Marie Hager, sister of Miss Celia
V. Hager, M.A., instructor of psychol
ogy here, has finished her work and is
a post-graduate student in sociology
at the Portland center. Charles F.
Stein, principal of schools at Brogan,
Oregon, has carried fifty-six hours
through the extension division in ad
dition to 102 hours in the University.
Miss Hager, in a letter to Dan E.
Clark of the extension division, states
that all her hours, with the exception
of 42 from the University of South
Dakota and the University of Chicago,
have been made through the corres
pondence division, Portland center, and
summer sessions. All her grades are
1 's and II’s except eight hours of III’s.
She lias been successfully teaching in
Milwaukie high school near Portland,
where she is head of the commercial
and Spanish departments.
Three more hours for Mx. Stein will
complete for him the maximum number
of hours allowed in the extension divi
sion toward a degreo. He has written
several times about another course, but
as yet, has been unable to find a three
hour course that hi; wants. Before he
went to Brogan to teach Mr. Stein’s
home jivas in Eugene, where he still
spends his summers.
RAGGEDY MAN AT GUILD

their lives. So starts the play in which
one laugh follows quickly after another
through three delightful acts.
As an additional attraction Mr. Rod
'dio will read Riley rhymes between the
acts on all three nights. He has spent
a number of years in the southern part
of Indiana and is well acquainted with
the Hoosier dialect and manners.
Candy will be sold during the inter
missions by the Y. W. C. A. for the
benefit of the association in Astoria
which suffered greatly in the recent
tire in that city.
The play with a cast of about 35
persons, including four children, Bobby :
Allen, Janet Thacher, Rosalind Gray,
and Bobby Seay, is a large undertaking
but the Company is proving its ability
to handle it with credit. Many Guild
hall stars are east in character parts,
who have heretofore played straight
parts only, and those whose comedy;
roles have moved Guild hall audiences
to mirth before will play strong com- '
edv leads. Katherine Pinneo does some
splendid acting in the role of Addeliny
Bowersox. Claire Keeney and Vein
Fudge in the roles of old men are both
unusually good.
PORTLAND CLASSES CONDUCTED
Phil \V. Jannev and F. E. Volts of the
school of business administration are
among those who go to Portland to con
duct classes in the extension division
school there. Mr. Jannev eouduc" i

while Mr. Volts teaches Finance.
HUNTINGTON WILL
ANSWER TONIGHT
Executive Council Will Hear
Decision of Coach at
Special Meeting
Charles “Shy” Huntington, for five
years coach of Oregon football, will face
a special meeting of the executive coun
cil tonight, with either a definite accept
ance or a definite rejection of the one
year coaching contract offered him by
that body almost a month ago. Al
though the matter has been kept as much
as possible under cover for some time,
it is expected by many who have been in
touch with the affair that tonight ’a meet
ing will be a lively one.
Front the fact that the contract has
lain with Huntington for nearly a month
now, without definite answer, and since
it is definitely known that the Varsity
coach has received tempting offers from
other schools, it is inferred by a large
part of the campus who are in touch with
'the situation that Huntington is doing
some deep thinking before possibly ac
cepting the responsibility of Oregon
'teams for another year. There has been
some agitation on the campus in favor
of giving Huntington a three-year con
tract as coach, such as was, indeed, re
commeded at first by the football com
mittee to the Executive Council. Thif
recommendation to the Council was later
rescinded by the committee in favor of
a one year contract, and it is thought by
some that outside influence was brought
to bear upon the committee to bring a
bout this change.
John MacGregor, president of the as
sociated Students definitely stated last
.night that one-year contract was the only
type of contract which the council would
.consided offering “Shy.” He refused,
then, to discuss the matter any further,
and all the efforts of representatives of
the Emerald, Eugene, or Portland papers
/have been useless, in an attempt to draw
more information regarding the affair
and its roots, from MacGregor or any
member of the Executive Council.
Huntington, himself has been silent
regarding the affair, since tlje receipt of
)fhe proffered contract, except to request
,of the council last Wednesday, a week’s
dee-way in which to further consider the
'question. It has been said in various
quarters of the campus that Huntington
'would be glad to get away from the
present uncongenial atmosphere of the
(Oregon campus and the coast conference.
He was silent to all questions on his at
titude yesterday, and would only state
that he would have his answer ready for
(the council tonight. The council meeting
.will be a specially called meeting to con
side# the question.

GIFFEN RETURNS FROM
CONFERENCE IN EAST
Student Pastor’s tk>nvention Success
ful; Religious Course Advocated
for Universities
Bruce J. Giffen, student pastor of the
: University, has returned to Eugene, af
ter attending the student pastor’s con
. vention at Chicago. He returns with
I an enthusiastic belief that the new
bourse in religion which will be given
j here under his personal instruction will
I be successful.
This national conference of religious
workers from all the state universities
convened at the Edgewater Beach hotel
In Chicago for four days, January 9
to 12. Reports from the schools of
religion on the university campuses
made by the different delegates and
numerous and beneficial suggestions
were made to help the pastors in organ
izing the schools when they returned to
their respective colleges.
According to Mr. Giffen, the Wesley
fund of the Methodist church has al
ready raised $300,000 for the ereetion
of an endowment building at the Uni
versity of Illinois.
“The main feature of the conven
tion,” said Mr. Giffen, “was expressed
in the hope that there will sooner or
later be a recognized school of religion
in every university of the country.”
The Pennsylvania University plan
has been adopted as being the most ef
ficient. In view of this fact, the same
plan will be adopted on the Oregon
campus to be in line with the othep
centers. .
