INSTALL APRIL 28 First Coast Chapter of Honor Society to be Granted Scroll and Script The University of Oregon chapter of Mortar Board will be installed on the campus April 28, taking the place of Scroll and Script, senior women's honorary (society. Installation eere-i monies will be held at nine o ’clock in the morning in the open air and the initiation at o in the afternoon in Alumni hall of the Women’s building. Miss Lillian Stupp, a member of the physical education department, who is a member of Mortar Board at Wash ington university, St. Louis, will be the installing officer. This is the first chapter of Mortar Board to be granted to a Pacific coast university or college. Although it is a comparatively new organization, having been formed in 1918, it has gained strength very rapidly through out the east and middle west. There are now over 18 chapters among the leading universities and colleges of the country. The purpose of the organization is to promote three ideals, says Miss Stupp; leadership; service to the university, | and scholarship. These groups, have proved very effective in guiding [ •campus activities, and influencing the lives of university women. The aver age size of a Mortar Board group is between eight and 12 members. The petition of Scroll and Script for Mortar Board was granted at the Na tional convention of that organization held at Swart hmore, Pennsylvania, early in February. Scroll ami Script was organized at the University of Oregon on June 3, • 1910, by Ruth Duniway, Francis Ober teuffer, May Sage, Juliet Cross, Helen Beach, Mary DeBar, and Olive Don nell. The basis of membership at first was a scholarship average of II, to- j gether with one major and two minor activities. Before the last election of members, however, the standard was changed to conform with that of Mortar. Board, which requires a scholastic standing better than a three and prom inence in campus activities. During the past five years, Scroll and Script has taken over one of the meet ings of the practical ethics class to explain the imeaning of Scroll and Script and its purposes to the fresh men women and to encourage them to participate in activities and strive for high scholarship. One of the traditions of the Univer sity is the pledging of Scroll and Script on Junior week-end at! the campus luncheon. At that time members of the society, wild are back on the campus, march through the crowds and pledge new members with ribbons and flowers. The loeal organization will continue one of its old eustums of entertaining junior women at a tea early in May, since this is also a Mortar Board cus tom. Active members of Scroll and Script wdio will be initiated into Mortar Board, are: LeLaine West, president; Emily Veazie, secretary; Helen Addison, treasurer; Alice Tomkins, Helen Hoef fer, Felicia Perkins, Margaret Jackson, Bernice Altstoek, and Inez King. Fac ulty members are Mrs. Elizabeth DeCou,. Miss Ida V. Turney, Miss Grace Edg ington, Mrs. Anna L. Beck, Mrs. Nor-; ma Dobie Solve, Lois Laughlin, Marian I Taylor, Mildred Hawes, Isabel Kidd and Anne Hardy. Only present active members of the student and faculty group will be in itiated: those elected to Scroll and Script in the past having been taken in on the old basis of membership which does not conform to that of Mortar. Board. I 33 WOMEN AND 20 MEN MAKE HONOR STANDING (Continued from page one.) berg; Harwood L. Marshall, Eugene; Mathilde Mathiesen, Oskosh, Wis.; W. H. Marshall, Eugene; Troy A.

WORK (Continued from page one) they express their willingness to join j with the campus organization, as they did recently, to obtain an efficient work-1 er who would have the qualifications ( both of an interdenominational student pastor and a T. M. C. A. worker. The question of whether or not there should be a part-time or full-time as sistant of such a worker was discussed by the board, but because of lack of necessary information and definite knowl edge of how the churches would react to the situation, the matter was laid on the f table till the next regular meeting. Churches to Cooperate A plan, receiving favorable consid eration bv the Advisory Board, for se curing a permanent and experienced worker contains the provisions that the churches select, with the assistance of a “Y” committee, a trained and efficient secretary -whose appointment will be agreeable to them as individual denom inations and to the campus “Y.” The other proviso is that the combined churches cooperating in the movement shall help to support such a worker by the payment of a specified annual sum of money. Definite action will be taken on this in the near future. STAFFORD TO ADDRESS RADIO FANS TONIGHT Invisible Audience Will Hear ,Talk On University Mam’s Discovery Of Waste Utilization Some idea of the immense waste of wood as a fuel is to be given to the radio world Friday evening from 7 to 7:30 o’clock by Professor Stafford of the University chemistry department in a radio talk on “The Chemical Util ization of Wood Waste.” The broad cast will be transmitted from the broad casting station KGW of the Portland Morning Oregonian, and it will be Stafford’s first attempt at talking to an invisible audience. “It is jusct like what Mark Twain said about the weather.” declared Staf ford.! “Everybody talks aibout the weather and nobody does anything. Such is the problem of the conserva tion of wood waste; everybody talks about it, but nothing is done.” It is the intention of Stafford to speak on the subject in general. Be cause of the lack of time, Stafford will only be able to touch on his perfected process of conserving wood waste. Friday March 30 Dean Hale of the law school spoke.on the “Freedom of the Press.” He discussed briefly the history of newspaper regulations. “It is necessary to have some reg ulation of the press.” Hale said. “Hence the existence of the libel and sedition laws.” The broadcast Friday April 6 was given by Professor A. B. Sweetzer of the botany department on “Wild Flow er Preservation.” On Friday April 20 Dr. E. T. Hodge of the geology depart ment will speak on the “Ancient Men of Oregon.” BIG DECREASE SHOWN IN PERCENTAGE OF FLUNKS Only 18 Fail at End of Winter Term in Comparison With 34 at End of Fall Term Finals Though to the greater part of the student body there has been no doubt about a return to school for the spring term, 99 students were very much in doubt about returning as these 99- were put on probation for failure to make nine hours work during the fall term. Of these students, 22 of whom were women and 77 men, 15 failed to make enough hours to bring their total up to 17 hours for two term’s work. Figures from the registrar’s office show a decided decrease in failures. “The students worked harder in the winter than the fall,” says Mr. Spencer. Thirty four flunked out entirely at the end of the fall term, six women and 28 men, while only 18 failed to make the required number of hours in the winter term, two of these being women and 16 men. Students going on probation for the spring term number only 31, eight women and 23 men as compared to 99 at the end of the fall term. BASEBALL SQUADS WORKING HARD (Continued from page one.) ;here is a possibility that both, Collins and Wright may be used elsewhere. From the way the men are eaeking the pellet it appears that the varsity will have an excellent hitting aggre gation this year. Their fielding has seen good for so early in the season, but the pitching staff has had no chance to show its stuff as yet. Junior Week-end Canoe Fete Committee Meeting today, Villard hall, 4:15.

The east for “The Professor’s Love Story,” one of James Barrie’s whim sical comedies, to be produced by the University company April 25, 26, and 28, has been announced as follows: Professor Goodwillie.Fergus Reddie Agnes Goodwillie ....Charlotte Banfield Pr. Cosens .Arthur Johnson Effie .Asteria Norton ! Lucy White .Lorna Coolidge Sir George Gilding.Vern Pudge Lady George Gilding .... Mabel Gilham Dowager Lady Gilding. Patricia Novlan Dr. Yellowleaves .Wade Kerr Pete .Claire Keeney Henders .Ed Keeeh In 1914 the play was produced on the University campus and after a success ful appearance toured Southen Oregon. The names of the original players are especially interesting. Mr. Reddie played the professor, Janet Young, Agnes; Ralph Ash, Dr. Cosens; Effio played] by Alice Shearer; Norma Dobie-Solve played Lucy White; Henry Howe, son of Professor Howe, took the part of Sir George Gilding;, Beulah Stebno 'played the Dowager; George Colton the other doctor; Edison Marshall played Pete and Earl Bronaugh played' Hend ers. The play has bfen an immense suc cess. E. K. Willard first produced it in j Boston. When Mr. Reddie was in Val-! paraiso it became almost an annual j performance and it is interesting to hear him tell of the last reunion of the original east -when the members came from great distances to play to a house which called for repeats on parts of the acts. Even the woman who played the piano on that occasion came from a great distance and arrived for the last fifteen minutes of the overture, playing with her liat on, breathless with her haste. Barrie plays have always taken well on the campus, the most recent ones having been f‘Alice-Sit-By-The-Fire,” and “The Wedding Guest.” TEAMS WILL BE COMBINED Foster to Direct Work of U. H.

If any good men develop, Foster plans, to send them to the state high school meet at Salem.
