Although it was unable at its last meeting to decide on any definite plan of action concerning punishment for houses that violate the no guest agreement a committee has been appointed to work out a set of rules. Apparently there is no tendency on the part of any organiza tion to want to violate the wishes of the student body. There is rather the spirit of relief that a needed bit of work has been done and a feeling that it is better that the students took the step rather than forcing the living organizations to set up the restrictions on their own. The Council has another important bit of legislation “in committee” which is directly in line with Oregon’s rising scholastic attitude. A move is on foot to set a standard of scholarship which a man must achieve before he can be initiated. Under the present arrangement every house has a differnt rule. Consequently there is too little consideration of a man’s ability and willingness to learn when he is being considered for pledg ing. A rule of 3.G has been suggested, which is probably pre ferable to the proposal that fraternity freshmen be made to merely equal the general freshman average. The influence of upperclassmen to enforce study rules in houses should make it reasonable that fraternity pledges make a siomewhat higher average than the mass of underclassmen. The Inter-fraternity council has been criticised in past years for talking much and doing little. A group of this kind, affect ing as it does a large per cent of University students, could be an effective organ for the betterment of the University. Its attitude for the most part has been good, but a strained diplo macy has often hindered effective action. With two proposals before it the Council has an opportunity | to prove to the campus that it is willing to take definite action on questions. In the case of the Junior week-end rulings what the Council docs will have a direct effect on the success of the guest-minus week-end. > To make a real grade standard for initiation is also abso lutely necessary it fraternities are to keep their scholastic aver ages above the place where it might be necessary for the Univer sity to interfere. At some other institutions living organiza tions which fall below a certain grade level are placed on pro bation. The adoption of a strict initiation grade ruling would probably prevent any such action being necessary here. Tone year ago todayT i — i !

VINING LECTURES ARE FEATURE OF SESSION (Continued from page one) desires, one should have absolute be lief in his own innate ability, he said. Success that comes to the man early in life is often liable to result in that self-satisfied feeling which is not good; it is the deadly balance of en vironment from which comes no gain. “The star of charaoter is self respect,” said Mr. Vining, “on which a great deal depends. Honesty and being able to play the game fair are important factors in striving for suc cess. ” “Knowing the other fellow, appre ciating his viewpoint and understand ing how to present ourselves and our arguments for his favorable consider ation, are most vital factors towards attaining success in the business world,” said Mr. Vining, in his ad dress on “Rowing and Influencing Men,” before the first session of the Oregon Retail Merchants’ asso ciation, yesterday morning. “Minds can grow only as they come into contact with other minds. That - is the value of student life and of' business life, the contact of mind | with mind, which frees one from pre judices and narrow viewpoints, and enables one to look at a proposition with open mindedness,” continued the speaker. • Mr. Vining pointed out the fact that we have two selves, the innate | self of our own consciousness, that is the ego self, and the other, or alter self, by which we banish thought of self, and throw ourselves sympatheti cally into the w-ork and life of the people about us. “It is upon the cultivation of this other self, this ability to make a man feel that you feel joy for his joy, sorrow for his sorrow’, and share and sympathize with his lot, that your suc cess in influencing men will depend.” j continued Mr. Vining. “The trouble in American life to day is that the various trades and occupations cultivate the ego self,”, he said. “The biggest part of life j_“To steal a girl’s heart’’ | Lois Wilson Heilig Theater Two Days Beginning Monday Evening FEBRUARY 25 Matinee Tuesday at 2:30 Nights at 8:30.

The greatest art is the art of living, and the greatest thing in living is keep ing young,” he declared. That consciousness of mind is the main factor in holding people together in groups is the belief of Mr. Vining. Thus, conventions are (Organized that the people of one kind and interest can gather to promote those inter ests. “First impressions are based on the law of association,” said Mr. Vining, “and our response and atti tude toward a person we meet for the first time depends upon some previous association of thought, and as that was pleasant or unpleasant, so our response will be governed. When two people meet for the first time, each trvs to find out how the other differs from him and his kind Do not allow the perception of differences to over come you, but look for something familiar, something you can feel at home with about this new person, or his surroundings and play up to that,” counselled Mr. Vining. “The greatest thing in life is to banish the ego self, and to live in the life of the other fellow, thus making a broad world of fellowship and understand ing,” he concluded. * » * In his lecture on “Adjustments to Service,” given last night in Villard hall before a general assmeBly of the convention and business administra tion majors, Mr Vining outlined the various “zones” of adjustment in which a man in his life work may place himself. The easiest and most natural way to work into new surroundings is through the zone of “conventions.” The young man, as a new addition to a community will achieve far greater success if he respects the conventions established until he has proven him-1 self to be a constructive force among ; those about him. On the other hand, I the speaker held little hope for the j man who was ever fearful to break conventions. To the zone of “maladjustment,” or discontent, the speaker relegated those of ability who are able to reconcile themselves with, their surroundings. Mr. Vining characterized these people as often times of great talents; people who, instead of tearing down conventions, should elevate the exist ing conventions to a higher plane. From the zone of “maladjustment” are drawn those of “hopelessness” and “criminality”—those whose con tributions are directed in the wrong channels. Men are born with limitless facul ties. It is this ability to progress that enables man to accomplish the impossible—to establish himself in the zone reached by few—that of Coming Events TODAY 11:00 a. m.—Irving E.
