LIFE INSUHCE MAN LECTURES TO GLASSES W. G. Schuppel Speaks on Methods of Selling W, C. Schuppel, assistant man ager of Oregon Life Insurance com pany, gave talks before the insur ance classes recently on the sub jects of “Presentation” and “Clos ing.” From his own experiences and those of other men in the insurance field, Mr. Schuppel pictured prac tical examples illustrating points in approach, presentation and the closing of sales in the insurance game, principles that are appliable in any kind of salesmanship. Ab solute sincerity was given as the basis of all successful sales, by the speaker, who pointed out that it never pays in the long run to hood wink prospects. To get away from the “I” and get over to the “U”, which always interests the prospect, who is con cerned in what is good for him more than anything else, to feel that the sale is made in spite of objections, that there are only about 22 pos sible objections to taking an insur ance policy, and that the sales per son should come to the close of the sale as soon as possible, were among the important points brought out by Mr. Schuppel in his lectures which were said by several of the students to be the most 'interesting ever given before the insurance classes. Mr. Schuppel’s talks are the clos ing ones of a series of four that are given to insurance classes each year. Other lectures were given by Mr. G. M. Sprague, general agent for Municipal Life Insurance Com pany, on “Ethics of the Life Insur ance Profession,” and by Eobert W. Earl, local district manager of the Equitable Life Assurance Company, speaking on “Approach,” last Tues day. COACHING SITUATION EXPLAINED BY HOWE (Continued from page one) a good coach, but because, with the alumni against him, he has no chance of getting the support and the players for successful seasons here. On the other hand, there are sev eral misapprehensions in the Journal article. It asks, if Shy really had the backing of the powers that ap point coaches at Oregon, why he got only a one year contract, and Spellman got a three-year contract. The answer is that Shy is a member of the Oregon faculty, carrying classes besides his coaching. All members of the Oregon faculty, in cluding President Campbell and the deans, are on . the annual reappoint ment basis. That does not imply dissatisfaction with President Campbell or Dean Dyment or any one else. It 1b due to the fact that the law forbids the state institu tions to contract indebtedness be yond the current year. The Uni versity can only contract with Huntington—or any other coach it hires—one ^ear at a time. That is why Gilmour Dobie is not coach ing at Oregon. At the end of his first year at Cornell, he made Ore gon a straight offer to come here as coach on a five-year contract. It was found impossible to give him that type of contract, and he has 'remained at, and become well sat ; isfied with Cornell. Bart Spellman is a part time coach, hired by the student body. He is not a member of the faculty, ! and does not have any contract with | the institution. The student body lean make any sort of contract it | desires. But President Campbell has j adhered firmly to the policy that all head coaches must be all-year men, and members of Jthe faculty. ) Shy therefore had an annual reap pointment, not in spite of the fact that he was head coach, but because of it. The weak point in the football situation at Oregon is in the supply of material. There are a number of kinks to that, and it would take a separate letter, or two of them, to explain fully the difficulties in volved in that matter. FOUR ANTIQUE COPIES OF HERALD ARE FOUND Papers Given School of Journalism by Judge Harris of Value to Senior Students Four antique copies of the New York Herald Rearing dates of pub lication during the fall of 1861 have been received by the school of journalism through the interest of Judge Lawrence T. Harris of the state supreme court at Salem. Two of the copies were sent to Judge Harris recently by Mr. H. W. Devalon, representative of the Na tional Thermometer Company, of New York, who discovered a year’s file of the Herald in an attic of a business house which the com pany has occupied for some time. Their historical value to news paper students was immediately recognized by Judge Harris, who in formed Mr. Devalon of his intention of passing them on to the Univer sity. Mr. Devalon, who has spent his summer vacations on the Mc Kenzie, expressed his approval of this by forwarding additional copies making a total of four which are now a part of the library of the school of journalism. These copies of the Herald are of particular value to seniors in the school who are studying newspaper history and New York journalism in the course in editing under Pro fessor Casey. PROFESSOR THACHER SPEAKS AT BANQUET Oregon Writers’ League Has Been in Existence Three Years; Interest Shown Professor W. F. G. Thacher of the University school of journalism was invited to go to Portland as a guest of the Oregon Writers’ league and speak at the banquet of that body held in Portland last Sat urday evening. His subject was the appraisal of the short story. The Oregon Writers’ league has been in existence for three years, and has as its aim the development of a community of interest among professional writers of Oregon. Of ficers elected at the recent writers’ week, were: Charles A. Carey, pre sident; Mabel Parsons Holmes, of the faculty of the University ex tension center in Portland, vice president; J. B. Horner, of the 0. A. C. history department, secre tary and treasurer. The league expressed a great deal of interest in the authorship work at the University, Mr. Thacher said, and expressed a wish that it might make an official visit to the campus later in the year. DEAN ALLEN NEARLY HOME AFTER TRIP (Continued from page 1) culinary art divided in three, four, or five courses, wih a bottle of wine thrown in, cost us, including the gratuity, 13 to 15 francs for the two of us, that is, 70 to 90 cents. Here we pay that much for each of us, and the tip is additional, and there is no wine nor salad nor auv Vivacious smile nor pleasant word thrown in. You can always idenify the beast from which the meat is cut, the vegetable is potato or brus sels sprout undisguised and un ashamed and the seasoning is salt with maybe a little pepper. Nothing subtle, no romance for the palate. Iu spite of the language factor we felt more at home (and Dean Allen underlines the word home) in France than in England. I loved Italy, too, but Sally so strongly disapproved of some features of life there that for her the artist was largely sunk in the affronted sani tarian and raiser of babies. In France and Italy, too, there was an easy gaiety, an unfailing spontan eous courtesy from everybody that made every day a joy. I found the Italian language easy and we had many interesting talks with all sorts of people, simple Italian helped out by sign language and bits of Latin —grammar all in the present tense. But now we are in London. I got some shoes half souled last night and couldn’t understand a single word the cockney lady said until she repeated three times and I made a correct guess from the context. “Sir Sidney Lee, the pioneer journalism teacher of England, telephoned tonight asking us to come out to his place Sunday, and from then on we have a constant succession of appointments.

We are going up to Oxford next week-end to see Professor Carlyle and Mr. Wylie, and hope to run out to see Colonel and Mrs. Leader’s people at Coleshitl house. “We didn’t go to Germany, partly because of lack of time and partly because travelling Americans gave such discouraging accounts of tire some difficulties encountered, so much standing in line at banks, "classified ads^ Minimum charge, 1 time. 25c; 2 times, 46c: 3 times, 60c; 1 week, $1.20.

Illness was considered sufficient grounds to warrant the withdrawal of the two students whose requests were granted, but the committee did not feel the justifiication for taking exception to the University regula tion regarding the dropping of courses at so late a date in the term. Members of the committee are Carlton Spencer, registrar; Dean Colin Dyment, of the college of literature, science and the arts; Dr. E. C. Robbins, dean of the school of business administration; Dr. F. L. Stetson, of the school of i education, and Dr. W. E. Milne, of the mathematics department. AUTHOR AND JOURNALIST BUYS THACHER ARTICLE “The Short Story in the College” is the title of an article which Pro fessor W. F. G. Thacher of the Uni versity school of journalism recently sold to Author and Journalist, a publication in the interest of pro fessional writing. The article deals with cultural values in short story writing, the justification of courses on the subject in college curriculum, and some comment on its pedigogy.
