HODGE SPEAKS Oil CEOLOCIC SUBJECT Columbia Has Possibilities of Hydroelectric Power OREGON FACES PROBLEMS Drainage and Flood Prevention to be Fully Explained The state of Oregon must solve four geologic problems if it is to increase its industries, to provide for the future development and to care for an in crease in population is the statement of Dr. Edwin T. Hodge, professor of economic geology. The address will be given before the Progressive Busi ness Men’s club at Portland today under the title “Geologic Problems Which Oregon Must Solve.” The problems deal with the drainage of and prevention of floods; the de velopment of hydroelectric power on the Columbia river; making the harbor of the Columbia navigable; and the possibility of securing water in south eastern Oregon. In discussing the problem, Dr. Hodge states that the present method of dig ging ditches is expensive, and time consuming, and guarantees no perman ent relief. He suggests cutting off meanders and shortening the course of the river, a comparatively cheap means of securing projection. The river will then be made useful for the transpor tation of logs and will permanently solve the drainage and flood diffi culties of the Willamette. Further more at least 60 per cent of the land not in use at present will be made available for agriculture. Power Equal to Niagra The Columbia river has water to generate power comparable to that of the Niagra and can be made to furnish power at a cost low enough to stimulate industries along the lower Columbia valley. One site, the Cascade Locks, has been discussed as a possible lo cation of a hydroelectric plant. The rapids there are due to a landslide which has interrupted the course of the Columbia and has caused trouble to the Union Pacific railroad. Unless a geologic investigation of the sub surface conditions is made, no success: ful retaining dam can be constructed. Dr. Hodge advises that a careful study should be made with the view of handling the currents of the Colum bia river so that the sediment that is deposited at its mouth will be carried out to sea. Hindrance to navigation and the financial burden of continous dreging of the river will become in tolerable with time. Geologist study should be made of the river so as to devise means whereby the river will be forced to carry its sediment out beyond the danger point. Large Areas Need Water The last problem deals with the one fourth of the state that is dry and almost barren because of lack of sur face water. This area in southeastern Oregon can be made into ideal agri culture lands. In some places of this district there is ground water that only needs pumping to bring it to surface. In other parts there is artesian water. Geologic investigation will show where the water definitely is and where it can be brought to surface. In conclusion, Dr. Hodge stated that the solution of these problems is a Portland problem because their solu tion would bring wealth and prestige to that city. LARGE ENROLLMENT IN CORRESPONDENCE WORK Some of Best Work Done in Extension Division Due to Older Students, Declare Instructors The correspondence school of the Uni versity of Oregon extension division has an increase in enrollment this year over last, except in May and July when there was a slight fall. At the close of Sep tember, 306 courses had been com pleted since the first of the year. Four to six months is usually re quired for completing an average course, although a year is allowed. Education, English, history, literature and mathe matics are the most popular subjects. Education heads the list, but English runs a close second. Not more than one course at a time is recommended, but two may be taken. Failure in the correspondence courses are conspicuous by their absence. The students are generally older and more seriously inclined than the average col CLASSIFIED ADS Minimum charge, 1 time 26c; 2 time*. 46e; S time* (0e: 1 week, $1.20.

Instructors who have charge of the regular classes and of cor respondence courses have found some of their best work in the extension division. Those who take advantage of the cor respondence school are usually people 'living in the country or in small towns, where the educational facilities are limited. A few choose to make up their high school requirements; others seek credits for graduation;# while some never expecting to enter college, want to have the college education. Registration is continuous, and en rollment may be at any time of the year. A certificate of credit counting toward graduation is granted with the com pletion of each course. Earl Kilpatrick is the director of the extension division on this campus. COMBINED OREGON CLUB PUNS NO-DATE DANCE President Urges More Men Out For Do-nut Work Fin^ plans for a dance, to be given at the Anchorage on November 2, will be made at the mass meeting of all men living outside of organizations Monday evening, at 7:30, in the Y hut. This dance will be given by the men’s and women’s Oregon clubs and will be a “no-date” affair for all members of the two clubs and those who are eligable to become members. “We expect to get every man in the university who is not connected with any living organization out to this meeting next Monday evening,” said Louis Carlson, president of the men’s Oregon club, yesterday. “Our campiagn for members during the past two weeks has brought good results but there are still a large number of students who do not belong to the club who would find it to their ad vantage to join,” he went on to say. Regarding the invitations to the dance planned for November 2. Carl son explained, “This will be a dance strictly for those who live outside of organizations and all persons who do not belong to houses are urged to come. This will be the last social affair, however, which the Oregon club will give that can be attended by students who are not regular mem bers.” In order to meet expenses it is pro posed to charge a small admission fee, probably 25 cents. All men interested in intramural ac tivities are urged to affiliate them selves with the Oregon club as there are openings on practically all of the do-nut teams. At least 10 men are needed for the rifle team, which will compete in the competitive shoot with the living organizations during the term. There are not enough men out for the do-nut debate teams so far and inasmuch as it is planned to have the debate series over before Home coming it is necessary for the teams to get to work at once. Men are also needed for cross-country. SCHOOL HEAD ON CAMPUS School of Education and Campus High Approved of hy W. M. Smith W. M. Smith, of Salem, assistant state school superintendent, was on the campus recently visiting the school of education and the University high school. “I saw many splendid features and am well pleased with the work,” he declared after the visit. Mr. Smith visits practically all high schools in the state during the year to see what progress is being made. This was his first visit here this year and was not strictly official as a more thorough inspection is fo be made later. Get the Classified Ad habit. Terminal Cafe Open from 6 A. M. to 8 P. M.

BOYNTON Only Eight Enroll in Electrical Measurements Class “Studying radio is no get-rich-quick proposition,” Dr. Boynton, head of the physics department, says, “it is a long and painful study, requiring a great deal of mathematics. There is no advanced class in the study of the radio at present, according to Dr. Boynton, but there are a number of students preparing to take advanced work. The class in electrical measure ments, which has in it eight students, including one “courageous” girl, is studying the fundamental theory of the radio at present. Calculus and general physics are requirements for this. work. Next year Dr. Boynton hopes to have a class made up of graduate students and some seniors devoted to the more advanced theories and practice of ra dio. A five-year course is offered, and several students are entering this year with the ^ntention of taking the whole course of study. “This study leads to training for which there is more demand than sup ply,” Dr. Boynton said. Every year there .is a demand for two or three times as many graduates as he can sup ply. There exists so many commercial establishments which carry on scientific research work, Dr. Boynton explained, that graduates from his department are ^always needed. The aim of the courses in electrical measurements and radio, the head of the department asserts, is to train peo ple to do Intellectual research for these bigger electrical concerns. The laboratory in Deady hall contains a rather complete apparatus. Dr. Boyn ton said he thought it was safe to say that in the last year and a half the students have accumulated and made al most fifty different kinds of radio con nections there. CAMPUS TO HAVE LOST AND FOUND BUREAU AT Y Student Council Appoints Committee to Work Out Details of Flan; , New Members at Meeting A campus lost and found bureau is to be established at the campus Y. M. C. A. under the direction of Mrs. Char lotte Donnelly, hut mother, provided a committee of the student council can work out satisfactory details. It was suggested at a meeting of the council last night that lost articles be dropped into campus mail containers by janitors and others finding articles. Attached to the article would be the name of the finder and the place where the article was picked up. The mail carrier would leave his collection of finds at the hut desk. /The idea of a central bureau would facilitate the location of articles with out a complete search of the campus. Things not called for within a given length of time could be sold ■ by the Y. M. C. A. and the funds used in hut up-keep or could be returned to the finder. Articles could be left at the Y. hut without the use of the campus mail, . Oh, So Smart! “And why?” “You surely needn’t ask that. ’ ’ “Oh, of course, I see now.

LATIN CLASSES PROVE UNUSUALLY POPULAR Ancient Language Required of Students in New Norm Flan; Teachers Are in Demand Latin has been considered a dead lan guage for many centuries and has not been overly popular with students of average mentalities. But it has emerged from its semi-consicious state, and is now one of the lively classes on the campus. Classes that last year num bered only five are now five times as large this quarter. The first year Caesar class has 26 enrolled, and Cicero and Yirgil are unusually popular with 12 followers. In explanation for this sudden in crease Prof. F. S. Dunn says that in the first place the new norm plan, adopted by the school of education, requires Latin of its students. There is also an in creasing demand for Latin teachers in the high schools throughout the state. . Educational reformers who have been trying to take Latin out of the schools have realised it would mean destruction to the romance languages and also harm ful to English, said Mr. Dunn.

They’re ComingBack EVERY SATURDAY NIGHT STROLLERS Will Play for You at the NEW ARMORY SATURDAY NITE "The best dance music you’ve ever heard" Written with a Parker by Glenn W. Miller, guard on Iowa's famous team and now captain PARKER ANNOUNCES A New One for Students barker D-Q—the Note-taker Pen, $3 Strong metal girdle reinforces cap Large ring-end links to note-book —A pocket-dip if you prefer — No extra charge for either WE asked about 1000 students at sev enteen universities and colleges the kind of pen they wanted. The mzyority preferred the Parker, but not all could afford to pay the Parker Duo fold price. So we set to work and produced this black beauty—the Parker D. Q.—formed on Duofold’s classic lines and made by the same crafts-guild. We gave it a 14k gold point tipped with polished Iridium, and a good healthy ink capacity; then we added two things we could find on no other pen of this size be low five dollars—a metal girdle to reinforce the cap; and an extra large ring link to fasten to the student’s note-book. These features are included free, or a pocket-clip instead of ring-end. The Parker D. Q. is an ink-tight pen. Ask to see it—note its shapeliness and balance. Try other pens too, and see how super-smooth the Parker is in comparison. THE PARKER PEN COMPANY. JAN ESVILLE, WIS.
