LAW EXECUTIVES
NEED EDUCATION
Enforcement Officers Should
Be College Trained, Says
Dean Hale
Law enforcement officers and execu
tives will be men with at least a par
tial college training, in the opinion of
Dean W. G. Hale of the University of
Oregon law school expressed after he
had attended meetings of the North
west Association of Sheriffs and Police
at Portland last week.
“The proposal of most interest to
me while I was at the meetings,” said
Dean Hale, “was the one for establish
ing schools where men and officers will
be trained. In time, men so trained
will become executives and the police
man ami police force will increase it’s
respectability. When this is done the
profession of crime detection will at
tract a class of man with a larger sense
of responsibility as citizens. They will
be men conscious of thieii* position,
which will not be that of running down
criminals, but of keeping' the peace,
and preventing the younger group from
getting into criminal ways.”
Quoting the speaker, Dean Hale said,
“A policeman should be a man the boys
run to rather than away from.
“Men who will be qualified to hold
these positions will need to havd a sub
stantial amount of general education,”
said Dean Hale. “They will require at
least a high school diploma, and must
know something of history and sociol
ogy. They will have to know more
than the regular technical requirements,
such as the probity uses of evidence. °
“To illustrate,” said Dean Hale,
“how much need there is for greater
intelligence among law enforcement of
ficers, Mr. May, who was hero during
the State District Attorneys’ associa
tion convention, told of a ocase where
a single match thrown away by the
criminal at the scene of the crime had
enabled officers to figure out the per
petrator’^ trade. An examination of
the match showed steel yuttings cling
ing to the wood. Of course, the guess
was that the man was a machinist, thus
narrowing down the number of sus
pects. At the Portland meetings of the
sheriffs and police, it was said that
even the deposits under the finger nails
at times when the criminal had been
careful in all other respects, had led to
evidence resulting in conviction. There
is not enough attention given to gath
ering and preserving evidence. Officers
of the law are not so careful as a rail
road company, for instance. The rail
road claim agents collect all the evi
dence and study it.
“It is part of a criminal’s psychol
ogy,” said the doan, “that he believes
he is going to escape. Capturing a
criminal is only a small part of crim
inal justice. Capture amounts to noth
ing if the best deterront of crime, quick
and certain punishment, is frustrated.
The fewer men who oscape the law, the
loss inclined others will be to yield
to theccriminal impulse.
“Judges are most outspoken about
the inefficiency of law enforcement.
When you consider that government it
self is maintained through law enforce
ment, we must uover overlook the hu
man equation in justice. If training
law-enforcement officers will do any
thing towards dispersing if contempt
for .the individual who enforces, it will
create a respect for the law itself.
Training will help to guarantee the
character of the police personnel.
“It is true that the policeman of
today is likely to present the imputa
tions placed on him by ft discussion of
What he terms ‘education bunk.’ But
the lack of a system which might per
fect enforcement machinery, may be
evolved by a school. The essence of
education is systematization.
“The type of school will probably
not be a special one, but a school run
by policemen themselves. Men trained
in special lines, as sociology, criminol
ogy, and criminal law, will be called
in to instruct. Such subjects as rules
of evidence, and the like are exam
ples. ”
MATINEE DANCE PLANNED
Women’s League Will Sponsor Affair to
Be Held Washington’s Birthday
A Washington’s birthday matinee
dance is being planned by Women’s
League for Thursday afternoon, Feb
ruary tl“. Chloe Thompson is in charge
of arrangements, and effort is being
made to secure ixeellent music and en
tertainment.
On Washington's Birthday, it being
a holiday, there will be no excuse for
anyone who does not have a good time.
A few nickels will be the only necessity
as dates are not even in order, and
everyone will be heading toward the
Woman’s building says the committee.
The hours will be from three until six.
An efficient committee has been ap
pointed to see that everyone has a
good time. This dance will be something
to look forward to, and no one need
fear a dull afternoon on Washington's
Birthday.
SWEETSER WILL LECTURE
Community Club Will Hear Talk on
“Oregon Trees and Shrubs”
An illustrated lecture on “Oregon
Trees and Shrubs” will be given Thurs
day night by Professor Albert K. Sweet
ser, head of the botany department, at
the College Crest Community club of '
Eugene.
The clubhouse was built about two
years ago by the residents of College
Crest. G. C. Whitton, who owned In
spiration Point, gave the site on it
for the clubhouse which was built by
the neighborhood, who felt the need of
a community club.
At present there are 120 members.
Meetings are held on the last Thursday
of every month, and after a dinner and
business meeting, an entertainment of (
some kind is held. The club invites
those interested to hear Dr. Sweetser’s
lecture Thursday evening, which will
take place at 7:30.
UNIFORM CREDIT BLANK
ADOPTED AT MEETING
New Method Simplifies Recording of
Entrance Requirements for High
School Seniors
Carlton E. Spencer, registrar, has re
turned from Salem where he made final
arrangements with J. A. Churchill, su
perintendent of public instruction, for
the publishing of new entrance blanks,
uniform certificates of preparatory
school records, for all Oregon colleges
and universities.
The plan for the introducing of new
entrance blanks was first discussed by
the Higher Standards committee of the
Higher Education section of the State:
Teachers association. It was then tak
en up by the Oregon Association of Col
legiate Registrars. At a meeting of the
State Teachers association in Portland
during the0 Christmas holidays, there
was a joint meeting of representatives
of colleges and high schools. This en
trance form was discussed and adopted.
A form was designed to be used by
everyono concerned—-by college regis
trars and high school principals in <cer
tdfyirfg students’ocredits for entrance
into all Oregon colleges and universi
ties. °
This blank form was approved and
Mr. Spencer was appointed to make the
final arrangements. Heretofore, each
state institution has had an individual
entrance form. This necessitated a
heavy supply for all principals of pre
paratory schools.
With the new form a sufficient sup
ply will be sent to each high school so
that the seniors applying for entrance
into any Oregon institution can be tak
en care of by a much simpler method
than formerly.

“In the Spring a
Young Man’s
Fancy’’—
and a smart dance is oftimes
the first step in the great
come-hitlier game. But ’tis
the alluring settings which
make for a successful dance
and not the least among
these is the program itself
—and that is where we come
in—not in the Springtime
stuff—but in the heyday of
richer experience where the
creation of arts for the ap
preciation of others is as
much an avocation as it is
a vocation. We enjoy it, too,
so why not you?

a good stunt if it worked, but they’re
a bunch of quitters—now, if the class
of 1923 was doing it, they would put
it over.” ,
Doug Wright, chairman of the com
mittee, said that the booth would be
open today for those who failed to get
their numbers yesterday. “We want to
urge all of the juniors to wear their
numbers and find their partners,” he
said.

season and one month in May for

year will not be connected with the
University. Spellman requested the
three-year contract. He asserted that
he would be unable to accept unless it
were offered, sine he is employed in
the insurance business and would have
to know more than one year in advance.
Discussion of the matter of an all
year freshman coach was brought up.
Nothing definite was decided.
