FIGURES INDICATE ENROLLMENT DATA Business Administration in Lead With 377, English Next With 233 Of the ,2060 students on the campus this term, the school of business ad ministration has the largest number of majors, according to the statistics from the registrar’s office. There are 326 men majoring in this school and 51 wo men, making a total of 377 students. The department of English ranks sec ond with a total of 233 majors, 26 men and 207 women. The school of medi cine, a branch of the University in Portland, has a total of 188 majors, 171 men and 17 women. Women are in prominence in the language departments. One man is majoring in romance languages. One man is majoring in German, and the Latin department must be an object of aversion since no men are specializ ing in it. There are 77 women major ing in romance languages, 6 in German, and 7, in Latin. No women have signed as majors in Greek, but 2 men are specializing in that language. The departments of botany and geol ogy have an opposite enrollment. There are 27 women and 3 men majoring in botany and 37 men and 2 women in geology.

E. Groff, a volume recently added to the library is one of a number of ma teria medica books. These books con tain for the most part information that is scarcely known outside of the modi- ! ' cal profession. They tell the origin, sources, use, preparation and amounts/ to be given, of all the medicines in use , at the present time. i The origin and sources of medicines read like tales of wizards brews or the - ingredients of a witch’s hell-broth: 4 Here is a short list of a few sub - j * stances used: Pepsin from stomach of , the hog, Bark from off wild cherry V; log, Lime and iron and mustard oil, j j Fat fresh plucked from ocean whale, j Lily-of valley root and stalk, Powdered ] down as dry as chalk, Boiled down fish- s bone gelatin, Honey, lead, and turpen tine, Secretion of the wild musk deer, | Young calves stomach juice so clear.

COLD EPIDEMIC ABATES : - t Students Asked to Follow Directions ] Given-by Health Service The epidemic of colds has somewhat ] abated at present, according to report 1 from the University Health Service j vesterday. This week the number of j students calling at the dispensary for 1 treatment has been light, in compari- j son with last week. However, students < are urged to follow the directions of 1 the health staff implicity, if the epi- , demie is to be wiped out. Last Wednesday the climax was , reached when 108 students reported for j treatment of colds. Friday there were , 86, and the number has rapidly de creased with the change in weather. £ On Saturday the dispensary was open , in the morning, and on Sunday from ; ten until twelve a number of students , took advantage of aid offered, and leame to have throats and noses treated. Advice from Dean Fox’s office to all students is to heed the instructions | of tiie health department in every way, and not become careless at the first signs of recovery. If students con tinue to take care, there is no doubt that colds can be checked, according to word from the dispensary office. OREGON WESSis TO LECTURE IN PORTLAND Geology, Science and Evolu tion to be Discussed With the object of enlightening the general public, especially those inter ested in Geology and Science, Drs. Hodge, Packard, and Smith lof the 'geology department are giving a series 6f lectures in Portland beginning Mon I day, February 5. These talks will be under the aus > pices of the Educational committee of | the Mazama club, and the University 1 of Oregon Portland Center. They are to cover a period of three months with ^one two-hour session a week. “Science and geology are rather popular subjects at present,” said Dr. (Warren D. Smith yesterday, “and we hope to give people a birds-eye view of what geology means in present day life, where a man is going when he dies, and the light that geology throws on the whole evolution of mankind.” The following is a list of the sub jects for the series of lectures: Feb. 2. (a) Geology and Our Civi lization (b) Outstanding Geological Prob lems .Smith Feb. 9. The Earth in the Making.... ...Hodge Feb. 16. The Dawn of Life ....Packard tyb. 23. Volcanoes and Earthquakes ...

The party will proceed on foot directly in the Woman’s building for the brief assembly of welcome. The assemblj’ will provide their only opportunity to see the students together. In the after noon the distribution of students among ■classrooms and library will prevent any mass grouping. Except for about 20 minutes in classes generally, there is to ; be no interruption of scholastic routine j on account of the visit. From assembly the guests will go to Hendricks for luncheon. About 20 j faculty members and a few townsfolk will accompany them. The (fining rooms at Hendricks, being compara tively small, and the list of guests large, only the necessary committemen and a few others of the faculty can be accomodated, and very few or no students. Few Addresses Planned Details of the luncheon program have >not been given out. There will be some musical entertainment, but up. stunts. There will be a few talks, mostly or wholly by legislators. About 2 p. m., the inspection of buildings will be begin. At 3:45, autos ■ will be, waiting on Thirteenth avenue, in front of administration, to take the ' Sparty to the chamber of commerce rooms, where a downtown reception will be given. The special will leave about 5:15. Luncheon will be provided to eat uu the train. The visit of the legislators and their families, and of legislative attaches and newspapermen, has been made pos sible by the generosity of the Eugene chamber of commerce, which is financ ing the trip, upon which no state money is being expended. State money has never been expended upon the legis lative inspection trips to the Univer sity. _ LEAGUE WILL GIVE REVUE Affair Will be Held for Benefit of Portland Children’s Clinic A parody on the novels of today featuring heroines as “Sirens of the South Seas, Fashionable Ladies of the Effete East, Filippant Flappers, Jazz Mad Youth, Slow-moving Main Street ers, Mystifying Sleuths and Genuine Buxom Maidens of the Golden West from vour favorite books’’ are all cast in the musical revue “Heroines” to be presented by the Junior League of Portland. Students planning on spend ing the week-end in Portland are very enthusiastic over the affair which is being given for the benefit of the Junior League’s Children’s Clinic. The cast includes one hundred young women and fifty young men and is a play full of clever lines, catchy music, georgeous costumes, and lovely dancers. Mail orders are being received now it the theatre, and as it is such a big affair it is urgent that students desir ing to go attend to the matter of reser vations early. SCORING SYSTEM USED IN RESTRICTIVE WORK Defects May be Corrected by Exercise Says Scott _ The scoring system which has hither to been applied to the regular educa tion and physical ability classes, is now also being used for determining the grades of restricted exercise students, i according to Harry A. Scott, director i of the physical education department. ' This will, as much as possible, says Mr. IScott, eliminate the personal element in determining grades for the term. A I greater stress is laid upon the stu dent’s attitude towards his self-eor Hrection, work, than on any other one attribute in the compilation of grade | points. 1 In regard to the work of the physical | education department in the restricted or corrective work, Mr. Scott stated the i following: ! “Every man entering the University (is required to take a thorough physical j examination before he is permitted to : engage in any physical activity. If, Muring this examination, he is found ! to have some physical or organic de-; feet, he is immediately assigned to the Restricted Exercise group. This does I not necessarily mean that he is an invalid incapable of enjoying physical exercise. He is thus classified for one or both of the two following reasons: ! there is a possibility of correcting his type of defect by proper, supervised exercise; or there is a possibility of; severe injury to him if he be permitted to .take part in a normal vigorous, (physical education program. This is true because certain types of physical or organic defects call for modified physical exercise.” “While it is true,” continued Mr. Scott, “that many types of defects may be corrected or arrested by means of exercise, it must be well understood itliat satisfactory results come only af Her long and faithful application of the llcorrective program. Such programs are 'necessarily individual in nature, and; the benefits gained are directly in pro portion to the attitude and amount of energy expended by the individual him- i self. The three meetings of the re I stricted exercise class a week is not enough time in which to work great changes. The prescribed exercises Ishould be practiced faithfully every day until results are obtained. Time in the regular class should be spent in 'learning some suitable recreative ac tivity which may be played throughout the greater part of life. GIRL’S GLEE CLUB WILL (Continued from page one.) beautiful and unusual, and are inter mingled with the chorus parts, which are heavy and difficult and will show the ability of the club perhaps more than any other part of the program. The rest of the program will be made up of songs of a lighter nature, with some solos by Ruth Akers, Florence Garrett, and probably Bernice Altstock. Virginia Owens, a pupil of Mr. Evans, and a freshman in the school of music, will accompany the club, and give a group of piano compositions. Miss Ow- j ens studied music in New York before entering the University, and is a delight ful and accomplished pianist. During spring vacation the club will visit several southern Oregon cities, en tertaining the inhabitants with Oregon songs, and Oregon spirit. The first plans were to take a trip north through Puget Sound to Seattle, but the executive coun cil ruling permitting only one organiza tion to leave the state each year caused a change in their plans, and tho Men’s Glee club was given the preference this i year. Ted Gillenwaters, manager of the club, i has lately returned from an advance trip i through the valley, and reports everybody as being favorable, enthusiastic, and eag er to have the club this year, and good support has been promised. The entire trip will be made in one of the large Greyhound busses which has been chartered from the Interurban Mo tor company, said Gillenwaters. “In this way, we will not have to travel accord- j ing to train schedule, but will be able to arrange our traveling time to suit our selves. We also save considerable money by traveling this way,” he said. “In all cities where we expect to en tertain, I was fortunate in meeting prom The REX This Is REPLAY WEEK • Today’s feature Jack Holt in ‘WHILE SATAN SLEEPS’ Adapted from “The Parson of Panamint’’ By Peter B.

They were yen' eager to have the club appear in southern Oregon points, and promised to talk it up, and give it good support.” They al so informed Gillenwaters that the girls would be taken care of and entertained royally while on the trip. The club will leave at the beginning of spring vacation, and will be kept very busy. Arrangements have been made for the girls to appear in six towns, Yoncalla, Oakland, Koseburg. Grants Pass, Med ford and Ashland. “The success o" the southern Oregon tour will depend great ly upon the support give the club by the student body at the homo concert to be given February 16,” said Gillenwaters. “The personnel of the club has been very slightly changed. Most of the old members are back this year, and few new ones have been taken in.” Mr. Evans, who will direct the club, is well known on the campus, for his ability as a musician, and as director of the Men’s and Women’s Glee clubs. Mr. Evans studied extensively in the East and abroad, and since coming to the school of music he has done much by way of furthering interest in music among the students. He is also responsible for the complete organization of the University choir, which furnishes music for the monthly University vesper services. LEGISLATURE ASKED (Continued from page one.) versitv property is an important one. in accordance with the state policy, the regents of the University have not purchased commercial insurance on the University. Their confidence in the value of state insurance has been re inforced in the past by the prompt action of the Emergency Board. Should the legislature fail to make good the fire loss incurred last summer, the re gents will be forced to conclude that the state insurance cannot be relied upon and will be compelled to take TODAY Wednesday and Thursday The Spark Plug of High Powered Drama Wm.
