Relieve the Congestion
The custom of prescribing term papers as a major portion of the
term’s work seems to be growing among the professors, and with
it comes an increasing congestion at the end of each term. Students
feverishly search through reference books and encyclopedias, and
pound the typewriter in the wee small hours of the morning in a
vain endeavor to strike off something in a short time which will re- [
inotely resemble the work of several weeks.
When a student has only one such manuscript to prepare, the!
result is not quite so confusing, but when lie has as many as seven in
one term, and all of these due the last week of school, the possible I
value for each is minimized.
Of course, he has had at least a month’s time or more in which to
prepare his papers, but there exists in the mind of all humans an;
innate tendency to leave as much as possible for tomorrow. Matric
ulation in a University does not wholly eradicate this tendency . In
the old days, the thought of approaching exams was bad enough—
but now with term papers added, the last few days of the term are !
a period of almost hopeless confusion.
Some professors have, and very wisely, too, assigned the term
paper for the first part of the term rather than the last. This method |
has several advantages. The organization of material necessary in
the preparation of such work forms an excellent background for
the remainder of the term’s work. Futhermore, the papers can he ■
read with greater care, and such criticism as is made will be really '
valuable—and not merely passed by as “old stuff”—which is the i
case when it is received after the term’s grade has already been !
made up. ,
A more calm and peaceful state of mind on the campus at exam- '
ination time is highly desirable. One step in that direction will be ‘
takeu when the work of term papers is spread more evenly throughout \
the term. i

It Could Be Done
i
One who wishes that the University could get down to “brass ‘
tacks” on the Student Union proposition lias submitted a concrete
suggestion. He says that a building of this nature should be con-j!
structed by units, the first one of which would cost approximately i
$50,000. Then if every living organization and those honoraries
which arc able would adopt plans similar to those used by Delta
Gamma and by Hammer and Coffin, the money would be guaranteed.
Plans are provided by building and loan associations for such gifts,
he says. Then with all this definitely assured, he thinks that it
would be nothing more than routine business for the A. S. U. 0. to
borrow the amount and to construct the building. No need of wait
ing ten years, he says.
For House Meetings Only
Several groups have expressed themselves as very strongly op
posed to any attempt to cut in on the Monday night reservation for
house meetings. Such encroachments have been attempted in the
past and the tendency is growing. It is, of course, extremely diffi
cult to prepare for a concert or a play without practice every night
in the week.
Nevertheless house meetings are important and they come first.
Monday night has always been reserved and there is no reason for
professors and directors trying to break the custom. House meet
ings cannot be efficiently conducted with half the members absent.

Campus Swamped
by Culture Sheet
Two young ladies and a young gen
lcman came strolling up the street,
riiey reached the coruer, turued, seem
'd to change their minds, turned back,
md then around again. They repeated
his process three or four times, and
eemed to be deeply interested and
ngrossed in the perusal of a small pa
ler pamphlet. If one could have looked
ver their shoulders, he would have
een at the top of the page, the words
Who Are the Cultured?” and under
leatli a picture of a man, walking be
weon two girls. “Find three blunders
u this picture” was the inscription.
For the past few days the Eugene
>ost office has been deluged with these
mall pamphlets. Where they come
rom, noone seems to know, but to the
nyman it is very evident where they
ire received, for everywhere one sees
indents reading them.
The strange thing about it, aecord
ug to some recipients, is that only
few students out of every living or
puiization receive them. The question
herefore arises—have these few been
hadowed, their atrocious manners ob
erved, and the booklets sent as a

PROMINENT Y WORKER I
TO ADDRESS STUDENTS
—
Veteran Officer Has Traveled
Extensively in Asia
The speaker at the regular assembly
1 of the University this week will be j
' Frank Ober, international secretary of j
the Y. M. C. A. and representative of
the Near East Relief, on his present
tour of the West. His topic deals with
problems in the Near Eats, with which
he is familiar, as he has traveled ex
tensively in connection with his office
on the international committee of the
Y. M. C. A.
Hr. Ober is a writer of considerable
i prominence among religious workers
| throughout the country and is the au
thor of a number of volumes relating
to religious subjects. For 25 years he
has been connected with the general
program of the Y. M. C. A., and has
had ample opportunity to become fam
iliar with conditions among the strick
en people of the Near East in the last
few years of his service, which has
kept him in close touch with social
l needs all over the world. His head
quarters is New York City, but at
present he is on a tour of a district
of the United States which includes
the Pacific coast. He is traveling in
the interest of the organization and is
attempting to relieve the suffering and
actual want that exists in many sec
tions of Asia.
Thursday noon, Mr. Ober will address
the Eugene Chamber of Commerce. His
address at assembly will be his only
appearance before the University stu
dents. He is stopping in Eugene on
his way from San Francisco to Port
land. His program includes appear
ances in both of these cities.
manners?” reads one heading. “How
should corn on the cob be eaten?”— j
“Give me the corn,” said one freshman,
“and I’ll give you a good illustration.”
There follow several admonitions
which have received timely comments I
from some quarters. “Never permit ! j
a servant to pour wine when you do I
not expect to drink it”! (“Yes,” says,=
one student, “but we always do expect j 1
to drink it when we get an opportun- i
ity!”) “Never permit your knife and ; I
fork to strike your plate”—“But how,” j
sqys another man, “do they expect you 1 §
to make connections with your mouth?” |
All these weighty problems have been s
discussed pro and con by students, and 11
it remains to be seen whether the gen-1 jj
tie reminder will have the effect upon < |
the student population that, evidently, |
was hoped for by the sender of the |
booklets. |
“THE HERO” AT THE REX
Those who hold the belief that the
day of the one star picture is passing
in favor of the production which fea
tures a number of players of high cal
ibre, will have their theory substan
tiated in “The Hero,” the feature now
running at the Rex theater.
The remarkable play by Gilbert Em
ery was an outstanding success on |
Broadway last season, is now translated |
to the medium of pictures.
