flflT CLASSES TO Tiles arid Paintings to be Students’ Work COLOR HARMONY SOUGHT Murals to be Submitted On Competitive Basis Tiles for the floor of the arts building entrance vestibule are be ing prepared by classes in the normal arts department. The plans are not yet definitely made, but a design class under the direction of Miss Maude Kerns is working on possible motifs, which will be car ried out in cement tiles by a class of Miss Victoria Avakian’s. The present problem is what single design or combination of de signs can be used. The color com binations *ill have to bo worked out to harmonize with the ceiling decoration, which will probably be a mural. Professor Alfred ( H. Schroff, head of the fine arts depart ment, has a class in mural doeora tion at work on cartoons for the ceiling. The work of the students will be competitive, the one chosen to be the one best suited to the particular problem. Work Demands Study Abstract designs, for spacing, others more naturalistic, with birds and animals, have been drawn by the design class, first tried out in complementary colors, then in re lative color combinations for study. The third problem was to do the study in dark and light. The work necessitated some historic study of Byzantine and modioval design. Now metal paints in silver, gold, bronze and copper are being used in combination with the colors. In teresting grotesques are included in the designs. me me class is gaining experi ence in handling the materials by making round and square tea-tiles in various finishes, both dull and glazod as to surface. The tiles are made of cement in place of tho regu lar clay which requires a more ex tensive equipment for firing. Those mado last year to go around the doorway in a mosaic-like pat.tom liavo withstood the exposure to light, air and heat of one summer. Cement Craft New Tho chief difficulty, according to Miss Avakian, is to get a tilo made whose colors are not evanescent and change with oxposuro. Cemont work as a craft is new, although tho Bomans used a sort of “cast stone” which is found among ancient ruins. Aftr tho tiles are tried out with the other decorative details in the vostibulo, plans will go forward for the actual making. Tt may be, how ever, that the work will wait until the new kiln is installed where the old powor plant is being dismantled on the north of the architecture court.

After leaving the University, where he played for three years as a tackle, Leslie went to Eastern Ore gon where he coached Milton .high school athletes. Considering tho ma terial with which he had to work, “Spike” made a good showing and turned out strong teams. Last fall “Spike” took over the reins of the Eugene athletics and finished up his season by handing a U9-0 walloping to the Grants Pass Today, Last Times Playing 1 to 11 P. M. The REX ...

Among teams ■which fell before Leslie’s offensive, was the strong Salem high team which, in cidentally, is coached by another Ore gon man, Hollis Huntington. Leslie developed a line from the purple sweatered youths of the local high school that was practically impreg nable and fell only before the on slaughts of the heavy Corvallis backs.

MODERN EDUCATION NOT UP TO HIGHEST POINT University of California — The student’s time is coming. Professor J. V. Breitweiser of the University of California has created quite a stir by advocating a new and radi cal program, of higher education. He says that students should select, dismiss and promote their profes sors; degrees should be abolished and diplomas awarded solely upon accomplishment. Until such methods are adopted, he said, modern educa tion cannot fulfill its highest destiny. Read the C lassified Ad column.
