Subscription Phones jyauor 655 | Manager 951 Daily New* Editor Thin Issue Leon Byrne Night Editor This Issue Parker Branin Bookworms and Butterflies e-'g - X- j> j Of the scores of newspaper men who are here attending the sixth annual Oregon newspaper conference there are a consider able number who have visited the campus during the entire six years of the conference’s existence. Each year these men have come to a campus somewhat changed from the year before. Each generation of students brings a different set of ideas-for the world outside the cam pus is changing, just as Oregon is changing—which, after all, accounts for much of the change we see here. The laising of scholastic standards which has been going on for several years has been a mighty factor in altering campus attitudes. Flippers and flappers, social butterflies and “daven port halfbacks” are usually unable to stand the pace and are rapidly being weeded out. Study is the main activity on the University campus, and the intense need for study and lots of it, resulting from the new system, is touching every phase of campus life and changing it for the better. The days when Oregon was a place where youths and maid ens came to annex a fraternity or sorority pin and have a good time for a year, before going to work behind the counter of their father's drygoods store or pumping gasoline for motor cars, are gone forever. Four-year students are becoming more the rule and nowadays graduates who start as drygoods sales men and gasoline pumpers now have a better background upon which to base their advancement from these lowly positions. Much of the “rah-rah spirit” is gone, and has been replaced by a deeper appreciation of “mighty Oregon” and a deep-seated loyalty to the University and its traditions. Ijihiats officials tell us that students are reading more good books than ever before and many professors are assigning work that requires heavy outside reading. The student who used to be able to dabble in every form of campus activity and yet keep his grades high is an extinct species. Student activities have become so complex with the growing of the institution from the small college stage to a great University, that taking part in one activity and main taining a creditable scholastic average is about all even the exceptional student can handle. Scholastic pressure has caused many students to drop com pletely out ot campus activities, and in consequence there is a different attitude toward activities than ever before. Those closest in touch with student problems from the administrative side advise students to take part in at least one form of en deavor which is not strictly scholastic. Those who drop every thing but class work and recitation are not the all-round men and women that the University wishes to turn out. The highest type of University student of today is the one who is doing an important bit of work in one outside activity and is maintaining a scholastic standing above the Universitv’s average. A general interest in campus life and a willingness to cooperate in the larger affairs of Oregon is also requisite. Bookworms and butterflies are frowned upon by students and faculty alike. Activities, scholarship and otherwise, that broaden the student and turn him out a credit to himself, his family and the University, are highly desirable. One-sided peo le find no more favor on the Oregon campus than they do in the world at large. Bigger people resulting from proper training means ulti mately a better type of citizenship for Oregon.

T ONE YEAR AGO TODAY | Some High Points in Oregon | Emerald of February 16, 1923 Six amendments to the A. 8. O. U. constitution will be voted upon in March. * # # Jack Myers has been elected president of the Co-op. Douglas Farrell has been named as general chairman for Junior week-end. Today* the varsity .basket tos sers will leave for northern camps and will meet the teams of the Hus kies, the Vandals and the Mission aries. The Women’s Glee club will pre sent the annual home concert this evening at 8:15 in the Woman’s building. “We are entering into a new era of science, where it is impossible for the unsupported individual to meet the stupendous task that lies ahead in utilizing the natural sources of energy,” declared Pro fessor Orin Stafford, head of tho chemistry department, in an address delivered before the assembly yes terday. Oregon newspapermen will gather on tho campus, March 22, 23 and 24. Formal installation of a chapter of Phi Kappa I’si on the Oregon campus will take place this evening. Tho Portland delegation of the State Retail Merchants association will arrive in Eugene at 4:30 Sun day afternoon. ABSENCE OF INGALLS FELT BY CONFERENCE (Continued from page one) which liolped some. Ingalls missed one, however, when in referring to the propaganda of tho bee owners he didn’t warn us about tho danger of being stung. Claude seldom overlooks a chance of that sort. I will like to refer, as I have been requested to do, in a light rein to a number of those present, but the limits imposed prevent. I must not neglect, however, to state that (rerjnan marks are now so •heap that K. A. Ivoen, a Scotch man with the peculiar Scotch trait, has started buying them to sell for waste paper. Editor Brady, of the Salem Statesman, is in physical appear mce, proof positive of the fact that editors no longer depend upon the vegetable contributions of delin pient subscribers for nourishment for the inner man. llis weight is something like Util) pounds, witQi ibout 200 pounds of that located in front of a perpendicular line I Irawn downward from the point of lis chin. Incidentally, Dean Eric \V. Allen, •hnirman of the program committee, s beginning to heave sighs of re- j ief as he sees the numbers of the urogram going over successfully, with intense interest on the part >f some -10 editors present. Mrs. Allen is of the opinion that after 1 :omorrow night he is going to be a much more agreeable person to live with and will so continue until time to arrange the program a year1 lienee. The announcement has been made that it is time to leave for the] banquet, which means "do” for this. ! WILLAMETTE SINGERS PLEASE IN CONCERT (Continued from page one) t Although Lloyd Thompson possesses v rich baritone, his singing was. not exceptional. He sang "Uncle1 Home,” by Homer. Edward War ecu. the tenor soloist, sang "Tommy Lad,” and while he has a good coice, his interpretation was not •specially good. Byron Arnold is the accompanist j i 'f the club, and his rendition of .'hopin'* “Etude Opus 10” was well I received. The Willamette octette sang “Where My Caravan lias Bested.” It was nicely done. The humorous part of the pro gram was furnished by Lloyd Walz, in a very clever monologue near the end of the program. Earlier in the evening, he gave a dramatic scene from “Dust of the Road,” which was well done, but was rather too heavy for glee club work. The group songs in the second part of the program were “Who Swallowed Jonah,” another negro spiritual, and two Willamette col lege songs, which closed the pro gram. Before the concert the Wesley club of the Methodist church enter tained both fhe W’il(amette and the Oregon clubs at a dinner given in the church. The Oregon club sang several songs during the course of the meal and later acted as ushers for the concert. Sidelights Taken Here and There in Conference Meet o-— The cigar had its inning during the newspaper conference yesterday. The newspaper-man’s eternal stogie was not laid aside even for confer ence matters. • * » A total of 58 people have signed their names in the little black book in which is kept the signatures of the members attending all the con ferences that the University spon sors. • * » I. Y. McAdoo received a lot of riding on the candidacy of his more illustrious namesake who is enter ing the race for the presidency. The lobbyists at Salem got the razzberry for their inefficiency dur ing the recent session of the state legislature. Dr. Orosland, of the psychology department, and his assistants spent 1,500 hours on his research in proof reading. Then some night editors complain about five. Nearly fifty women attended the Theta Sigma Phi tea. They all seemed to enjoy themselves. * # « The Murray Warner Museum at tracted many of the visiting edi tors in spite of the conference elsewhere. * * * Arthur Piaulx, editor of the Drain Enterprise and Creswcll News, is one of those present who met Joseph Maddoek. He expressed his tempta tion to go back to college in order to take football training under the new coach. Anna Jerzyk, who was a major in the journalism department on the campus last year, is here for the conference. She is a member of Theta Sigma Phi and is now a re porter on the Rainier Review. Mr. Paul Kelty, news editor on the Oregonian, is one of the inter esting speakers at the convention. W. Verne McKinney, of the Hills Doro' Argus, is attending his first lewspaper conference. He is as sociated with his mother, Mrs. E. C. McKinney, in the publication of he paper. FRADE JOURNALISTS DISCUSS QUESTIONS (Continued from page 1) nun pie copy with a letter telling lomo of the nice things said about he publication. “Of course,” said Mr. Hart, “such j i drive must be timed to suit the | leasonal interest of the indutrv con rerning which the paper deals.” ! An analysis of the federal trade j ■ommission's decision in relation to wiuting costs was made by Louis Sondheim, in which he brought out hat t ho Tvpothetae, a national winters’ union which controls most | >f the shops in the United States, lad been squeezing out smaller winters by establishing a definite wire for each and every job and diminating “shopping for prices” \s much as possible. “This is lireet restraint of trade,” declared Mr. Sondheim, "by stifling compe tition (in compelling everyone to iso the same standard price list.” Trade Editing Subject George t\ Cornwall, publisher of he Timbermau, was scheduled to read a paper on the “Essentials of I'rade Journal Editing,” but was inable to attend because of pub ication duties, so he forwarded it o Ralph Casey, of the University school of journalism, who read it it the meeting in his stead. The writer b ought out the fact hat journalism majors who expects o enter trade journalism for a life vork should, if possible, decide on he field or industry which he will wefer and begin to familiarize limself with the subject and its •hraseology and to work as much is possible in the industry itself.

STETSON HATS Styled for young men Obak’s Kollege Krier OBAK Wallace, Publisher L.L.J. Office boy and editor Volume 3 SATURDAY, A. M. Number 14 DEFENSE OF KRIEfl MADE KNOWN TODAY The startling charge made against ,the Krier last week by the women ,of the University, who insist that this publication is responsible for men refusing to make dates over the week-end and spending their time at Obak’s Kollege Klub instead of in front of the fireplace, has swept this campus into a turmoil of apprehen sion. Teapot Dome controversies and presidential possibilities have been forgotten in the heated controversy that has been agitated by this sen from the Krier’s editorial board of sational case. In the official statement issued from the Krier’s editorial board of fice last night they listed their de fense. In this they assert that the policy of the publication has always been for the best interest of the Uni versity men, and that anything that has been published has been with this aim in view. Other items of de fense are: 1. Men, tven in this day of mod ernism, deserve to have their hours of amusement. 2. Obak’s Kollege Klub offers University men the most splendid entertainment that this campus af fords. 3. Men still have a few rights, and this Klub is one of the few. 4. If the Kollege Krier has lured men to this Klub it has been with the knowledge that said Kldb will furnish them with the finest smokes, the best food and the most complete indoor entertainment—pool and bil lairds. OBAK’S WINS An intimate photographic study contributed by one of Obak’s Klub members explaining in a few words the reason that he prefers Obak’s to fireplaces, moonlight strolls and porch piffling. Our Hall of Fame The sophisticated freshman from Prunebury, who thinks, after a term of college, that the greatest benefits of higher education amount to de veloping a line with women and pro fessors; his average last term was 5.03; he stayed in school because he carried two hours military. He thinks that the mill race is a track event and Spencer’s Butte a keen woman. "’What a whale of a difference just a few cents make! ” —all the difference between just an ordinary cigarette and — FATIMA, the most skillful blend in cigarette history.
