OLD OREGON WILL
APPEMU1E H
Commencement Number Tells
Story of Graduation and
Orations of ’97
An account of an old fashioned com
mencement with a list of the fourteen
orations delivered, will be a feature of
the Commencement number of Old Ore
gon, appearing on the campus on Juno
14.
The story was written by Laura Mil
ler of Portland, a member of the class
of ’97. and contains among other things
a list of 14 orations, which were
given at the commencement exercises
on that day. These ranged in subject
matter from “The Omnipotence of
Thought,” “The Omnipotence of Char
acter,” “The Posers of Nature,” “The
Wings of the Soul,” and “Liberty En
gulfed in the Seething Waters of Poli
tical Chaos.”
“Commencement in those days, was
second only to the Fourth of July,”
says Miss Edgington, “and people came
for miles around, whether they had sons
and daughters graduating, or not.”
Another feature will be a picture of
Opal Whitely, the author of “The Story
of Opal,” who has lately published a
new book of poems entitled “The Flow
ers of the Stars.” Miss Whitely was at
one time a student at the University of
Oregon, for a period of three years.
There will also be an article by
Judge R. 8. Bean of Portland, who is
coming to the campus to celebrate his
fortytfifth Commencement. Judge Bean
was for 38 years a member of the board
of regents of the University, 25 years
of which he sorved as president. He
has had five sons attending the Uni
versity, four of whom are graduates of
this institution.
A picture of the class of 1893 as
freshmen, will also appear in the issue.
“Mrs. L. H. Johnson and Elizabeth
Stevenson's mother aro the only two I
have recognized so far in the picture,”
says Miss Edgington.
Plans are already underway for next
year’s Old Oregon, according to Miss
Edgington. A medical section with news
from the Medical School in Portland
will be a new feature.
“The poetry page will probably be
continued,” says Miss Edgington,
“since that one section has attracted
more interest from alumni than any
other one department. Wo are also
hoping for a number of articles from
Herbert Thompson, ex- ’96, who is a
member of the San Francisco Chamber
of Commerce Publicity Department. His
article on Eugene in 1890 was one of
the most popular features and a large
number of calls were received for the
issue in which it was published.”
A department of campus comment
and criticism will also be a new feature
of next year’s Old Oregon.
“I have been rather disappointed in
the response from the alumni this
year,” added Miss Edgington, “but I
believe that it is because they are not
in the habit of hearing from the alumni
association so often and therefore they
do not respond as often as they shold.
However tlu\ alumni magazine Jw*ill
continue to bo run ns a monthly next
year, and will not decrease in size but
will probably be larger.”

UNIVERSITY CATALOGUE
COMING OFF THE PRESS
Edition of 58,000 Copies of New Book
Will be Printed; Changes
in Style Made
The first run of the 1923-1924 issue
of the University catalogue came off
the University press last night. It is
expected that it will' be the latter part
of June before the entire 58,000 copies
will be printed and ready for distribu
tion.
There will be several changes in the
style of the book this year, according
to Mrs. George Fitch who edited the
catalogue. For one thing it will be
larger and of different typographical
style. There will also be a change in
the courses listed, in that courses listed
as A, B, and C must all be taken before
credit can be given as they will be
year courses.
It takes about three months to make
up the catalogue, as courses must be
checked up to see if they are given
at proper term and if they are going to
be given. Heads of departments must
also rewrite their statements.
The catalogue is primarily for stu
dent use, but a copy is sent to all the
high schools to the colleges listed for
exchange and to faculty members of
the University. There is no charge
asked for the book.
JUNIORS TO SION CARDS
All Juniors who expect to obtain
degrees next year should go to the reg
istrar’s office before the close of
school and fill out “an application for
degree card.” This will enable the of
fice to check up on their records in

they lack towards obtaining their
degrees. It will not only be doing the
registrar a favor but will be of material
aid. in outlining programs for
next year.

SUMMER CONSTRUCTION
WORK TO BE EXTENSIVE
Location for New Heating Plant Causes
Great Deal of Moving and Tearing
Down of Campus Buildings
The carpenter shop will be one of
the busiest departments in the Univer
sity this summer if all the construction
work on its program is carried out.
The Extension building, the Post office,
the carpenter shop, the “pest house”
and the infirmary are to be moved to
make room for the new heating plant,
according to one of the men employed
in the construction department.
The men employed on the work could
not tell which buildings would be
moved first or where they would be
placed. It is probable, however, that
the old infirmary building will be mov
ed across the alley, and the Extension
building moved to the present site of
the infirmary and “pest house.”
The old repair and carpenter shops
in the rear of the Extension building
will be moved or torn down to make
room for the new heating plant. These
buildings as well as the “pest house”
are very old and probably will be torn
down.
A new heating plant was deemed
necessary when the old plant near the
Sociology building, was unable to heat
all the buildings comfortably last win
ter. Work of tearing down the old
plant will begin as soon as the heat
is not needed in the buildings. Scaf
folding has been placed on the smoke
stack preparatory to the work of razing
the plant.
DEBATERS TO SELL BARS
Campus Will Have Chance to Cool off
for Ten Cents June 7
Ice cream bars, 90 in the shade and
exams seem to go together. The first
two we have because we like ’em and
the last, we have because we must.
The weather man promises a nice warm
day for next Thursday, June 7, and
Zeta Kappa Psi, women’s debating so
ciety, will furnish the ice cream bars.
Girls will be stationed at all points
of vantage on the campus and will sell
the dainty confections for the small
sum of 10c a bar.
Remember the day—Thursday—and
don’t forget to bring you dimes, say
the orators.
STUDENTS STUDY BY MAIL
Correspondence study for May
showed 41 students enrolled in 47
courses, according to Dr. Dan E. Clark,
of the extension division. There were
51 students who completed 55 courses
during May, earning 155 term hours of
University credit. These hours cor
respond to the average number earned
by ten students on the campus during
one term. Pew students taking corres
pondence work fail in their courses,
said Dr. Clark. This is usually because
students who cannot keep up their work
withdraw rather than fail in a course.
