POLITICAL CLUB STATES OBJECT Republican Group Desires to Arouse Interest ROSEBRAUGH CHAIRMAN Membership Drive to Start First of Next Week “The object of the Republican club is not primarily to influence the students along party lines, but rather to create an interest in the larger political issues and in gov ernmental problems of today,” said Arthur Rosebraugh, chairman of the executive committee of the Repub lican club, now in process of forma tion on the campus. “Membership in this organization will be open to any student who is willing to take an interest in the various problems which will come before the club from time to time,” he continued. The drive for mem bers will start next week. Alumni Group Planned It is the plan of the executive committee to organize an alumni advisory committee, which will be made up of members of the alumni association of the University, to act as a balance wheel to keop the club itself from becoming too partisan in its views and from taking too much activity in petty politics. Two members of this committee have already boon chosen, and have accepted tho invitation to act in this capucity. They are Judge Lawrence T. Harris, formerly of tho Supremo Court of Oregon, and Louis Bean, former speaker of tho House of Representatives of the state legislature. The two United States senators from Oregon will probably be placed upon this com mittee as honorary members. Speakers to Come The organization plans to bring to the campus speakers who arc prominent in governmental affairs, Koscbraugh stated that he thought that it would not bo difficult to persuade prominent men who hap pen to be in this part of the coun try to address the students on political problems. During the next few months there will undoubtedly be several men of this calibre who will pass through Eugone, and it is believed it would bo a great source of interest and information if the student body as a whole could have the benefit of hearing them. STUDENTS IN ZOOLOGY ORGANIZE NEW CLUB Group Will Meet Occasionally to Discuss Questions of Medical Interest A club wthout a constitution, a president, or any other regular of ficers, has been organized among the zoology and pre-medic students. It is tlie purpose of this organiza tion to provide a means l'or better contact among the students inter ested in this field of science and give them a chance to get together occasionally ami discuss topics of interest in an informal way. The handling of ail business mat ters will be done by a committee. Meetings will be held once a month and it is planned to bring some of the best speakers obtainable on medical subjects to speak at these gatherings. Final steps in the creation of this organization were taken Wednesday evening when about 100 students met in Villard hull.

Taylor, who came to tlie campus last, fail from a little j town near Mexico City, where she j has taught school for several years, spoke to tlie Spanish club Wednes day night, on her travels through Mexican cities and her impressions of the cities and the people. She said that she had traveled a great deal and had come to love the peo ple of all classes. She spoke of Vera Cruz especially, a city where she formerly taught, and said that her first impression was of the cleanliness and of the immaculate white clothes of all the people. Miss Taylor told of the Aztec monuments preserved since the time of, their civilization, as the pyramids of the sun and moon. She illustrated her talk with pictures and showed, also, some odd articles —a vase, a hollowed, gaily painted gourd and a curious sandal. Miss Taylor obtained a leave of absence and came to Oregon last term, but she expects to go back to her school, where she is vice principal, in March or April. The introduction of he? speech was given in Spanish, though tho main part was in English. Lowell Angell, president of the club, urges all students in Spanish to attend the fortnightly meetings. “We are trying to give instructive programs at all meetings,” lie said. “We particularly want to learn of countries whero Spanish is spoken, such as Mexico and South America.” Short business meetings are held the first part of the evening, after which comes tho program, followed by refreshments. The meetings are held in the Y. W. O'. A. bungalow. SENIORS HOLD CLASS WITHOUT PROFESSOR1 — Study in “Campustry” Conducted j By Latham and Carter in Front of Library “When the cat’s away, Tlie mice will play.” So runs the old adage, and it ' was proven true Monday afternoon when Professor M. K. Cameron failed to appear at his class in his tory of economic thought. The en tire class, which is composed of seniors, adjourned to the senior bench in front of the library, and had a class of their own. Where the absent instructor was at that time is still a mystery, but it 1ms been reported that some one saw him hurrying into the police headquarters about that time of day, bearing a summons for park ing without lights, or some other minor offense. The members of the class, with ! lluuk Latham and Frank Carter in charge, had an intensive hour’s study in “campustry” and anyone ^CL ASSIFIED ADS Minimum charge, 1 time, 25c ; 2 times, 46c.: 8 times, 60c ; 1 week, $1.20.

MILITARY PLACES OPEN ' Examinations Given in March For West Point Entrance Examinations for entrance into the United States military academy at West Point will be given March 4. According the recent informa tion had by Lieut.-Col. Sinclair, there are three vacancies to be filled from the state of Oregon. One of these vacancies is in the jurisdiction of Senator Charles Me- ' Nary and the other two under the | jurisdiction of congressmen of the first and second districts. “University students interested ' in getting an education without ex- i pense will do well to investigate,” 1 said Col. Sinclair. “It is the uni ! versity man, the man who has spent several years at college, that makes good at West Point. Boys just out of high school find it difficult to meet the scholantliip standard after the first term.” Y. W. OFFICER TO VISIT Miss Elsie Heller, Y. W. C. A.

NEW STACKS WILL BE INSTALLED IN LIBRARY Additional Shelves to Aid in Providing Increased Space For New Volumes Two new floors of stacks are to be installed in the University lib rary as soon as they arrive on the campus next month and will great ly relieve the congestion in the shelves at present. Mr. M. H. Douglass, University librarian, has received word that the stacks have been shipped and are due here within the next few weeks. They should be installed and ready for use by the opening of the spring term, according to his plans. A great deal of inconvenience and inevitable difficulty in locating ref erence books in the library will be entirely removed with the installa tion of these new stacks which will provide shelves adequate for all of the volumes which are at present crowded into small spaces or scat tered over the reading room in inaccessible order. Librarians have worked under handicap of cramped quarters for several years, since the growth of the University and the additioual demands upon the library have been augmented con tinually. The additional stacks will not only provide adequate shelf space for the constantly growing number of volumes, but will be a greater protection against fire as the stacks are thoroughly fire-proof and the building itself is not. The stacks will occupy the space ready for them directly above the present three floors of shelves and may be entered through the art gallery on one floor and through the historian’s room on the reserve floor of the library. Entrances are already in place and as soon as the floors are placed and the shelves ■nstalled the entire new area will oe opened. Mr. Douglass pointed )ut the fact that these two addi ional floors will form a continuous mrt of the present stacks and that i vindows for each floor are already n place as well as electric wiring. ; rhe work of installing them will legin as soon as the marble slabs ’or the floors arrive and he fully ■xpects to have it completed with n the next two months.
