    NEED OF CLUBHOUSE FOR
FACULTY IS EXPRESSED
Kincaid Site Proposed for Building of Moderate Cost; Expense
Would Be Small with 200 Members
A faculty clubhouse as a home for
bachelor professors and as social head
quarters for the faculty has been a
long felt need on the Oregon campus.
The formation of the Oregonia, a so
cial club composed entirely of faculty
members,is a definite and tentative
steji in that direction, states Frederick
8. Dunn, professor of Latin, in the
University. Much enthusiasm has been
inspired among the faculty in discus
sing this problem.
A building of moderate cost as near
the campus as possible would be most
desirable. There are sites available on
the Kincaid property and on 11th aven
ue which would be most convenient.
This building would have to be put up
entirely at the expense of the faculty.
But as there are practically 200 mem
bers and individual expense would be
small in comparison to the convenienc
es and comforts that would be se
cured.
At present the faculty have no room
to call their own for any entertaining
or social event they may desire. The
library is not provided with any ade
quate study rooms which the faculty
should have. When world famous men
or distinguished and talented celebri
ties make a brief visit to the campus
many of the faculty members are un
able to meet them or enjoy their visits
because there is no selected headquar
ters for their entertainment. Carl Sand- ;
berg’s midnight party at the Anchor
age is a case in point. The delightful
hours sped away in an informal inti
macy with one of the great poets of
the century. It was a treat those pre
sent will treasure as a privilege perhaps
never to be experienced again. Those
of the faculty who missed it cannot
help but regret.
“Such a building,” says Professor
Walter C. Barnes, “would necessarily
contain a lounging room, a dining room
big enough for all the faculty, and
a small library.”
Discussing the problem further Pro
fessor Barnes believes that the present
social feeling among the faculty is so
harmonious and enjoyable that a fac
ulty club house is not needed to pro
mote it.
“I have never,” Professor Barnes
said, “been anywhere in my experience
where a faculty was more sociable, had
more good will and worked more har
moniously than the faculty of the Uni
versity of Oregon.”
The University of Washington has a
faculty clubhouse as well as the Uni
versity of California, the latter also
having a faculty tennis court attached,
where match games between the faculty
and students take place.

the man. The Oxford idea is that the
man trained after the Oxford plan will
very speedily get his tools in after life
and will always use them wisely there
after. The American idea is that a
man in getting the tools will somehow
or other acquire the ability to use
them wisely.
“I think,” said the dean, “that Mr.
Morley’s idea is susceptible of engraft
ing on the American plan up to a cer
tain point. I don’t think that the
pure Oxford idea would succeed in Am
erica—don’t think it even feasible to
attempt it. As is so often the case the
truth for America lies between.”

Oregon Woman Novelist to
Speak at Conference
President of Writers’ League Has
Done Varied Journalistic Work
Perhaps no woman .writer in Oregon
has done a wider variety of work than
Anne Shannon Monroe, president of the
Oregon Writers League, who is to
speak at the writers’ section of the an
nual newspaper conference this year.
Miss Monroe admits doing everything
but poetry.
Her first novel, Eugene Norton, was
published when she was no older than
the average Oregon co-ed,, and, her
fourth book is now in preparation. She
has done humor on the Chicago News,
editorials on the Chicago Tribune, over
200 syndicated short stories for news
papers, money-making problems of un
trained women in the Delineator, three
separate business fiction serials for the
Saturday Evening Post, “portrait”
work for Good Housekeeping and edi
torials for the Ladies’ Home Journal.
She covered the whole United States
at one time getting acquainted with and
writing up women judges of the coun
try. ,
Miss Monroe lives in a little house
in Southeast Portland which she built
in 1906, after doing the Lewis and
Clark Exposition for The World Today,
and there on an ordinary Corona type
writer she ip working steadily on Helie
of the Double O, a novel of ranch
life in south-central Oregon.
A. C. Dixon, former University re
gent and Mrs. Dixon left this week
for New Orleans, where Mr. Dixon will
attend a lumbermen’s conference.
