On Expressing Thoughts
“You cannot make me believe that students at the University
of Oregon are not thinking serious thoughts. They are thinking
mighty serious thoughts, but we professors do not give them the
chance to express them, or, through our lecture system, have
built up in them the habit of remaining silent.”
It was a University professor, one of the leaders of the pres
ent discussion groups held in the various houses, who made this
statement. And it was not said merely to pat some students on
the back, for the group present consisted of instructors and
ministers of the town.
This statement was followed by a discussion of the merits
and demerits of the lecture system, and the possibilities that lie
in classroom discussion where the students and the instructor
meet, on a common plane to give and take from their fund of
experience and study, and to be of mutual help to each other.
But we are not primarily concerned here with a consideration
of the lecture versus the discussion type of class procedure.
We would like to consider for a moment the statement that
University students are ” thinking mighty serious thoughts.”
If that be true, why is it that they are constantly being accused
of being frivolous, of frittering away their time doing incon
sequential things? Have they been thinking serious thoughts,
without proper opportunity to express them?
Again, students are accused of neglecting their spiritual
How much of this is true is uncertain, for it is very diffi
cult to measure the spiritual life of an individual. But discus- j
sion group leaders and classroom instructors tell us the average
student is vitally interested in ethics, religion, philosophy, moral
conduct, and other related subjects. Not interested in them so I
much as in courses of study, possibly, but interested in them'
because of their close relationship to every-day life.
The trouble, it seems to us, lies not in the assertion that stu
dents are not thinking serious thoughts or are not spiritually
minded. The real cause lies in the fact that students have not
taken the trouble to inform themselves on subjects of this na
ture. Not only do we fail to read the philosophy, the logic, the
principles of ethics, and the guides to moral conduct as found
in the New Testament, but so many of us fail to avail ourselves
of the opportunity that is ours of consulting valuable sources on
these topics that are to be obtained in the library. Conse
quently, we often fear to express our interest in spiritual topics
for fear of appearing ignorant, or in other cases falsely fearing
to be considered religious fanatics.
But this shows that our reasoning or our drifting is unsound.
The one who knows the least about a given subject, whose con
ception of it is quite narrow, is the one who is most likely to
be a fanatic on that subject.
To think serious thoughts we must read books that stimulate
that type of thought. We would do well to consider the advice
of Fred Lockley, and choose our mental food with at least as
much concern as we select our food at the table.

Sport Chatter
by
MONTE BYERS
Regardless of what the sporting
world says or thinks, fate played aj
cruel trick on Billy Reinhart in his j
first start as a varsity basketballi
coach. In basketball one hardly ever I
thinks of injuries as being a serious
factor in the deciding of champion
ships. Injuries of serious nature are
very rare in basketball, yet that is
just what the Webfoot quintet in the
conference season just closed.
Prior to the start of the conference
race, Billy saw a championship in the
offing, but the tide of fate ebbed
and the championship floated away.
Reinhart had a squad of veterans to
begin with and he started a new sys
tem in Oregon basketball and we
might say right here that it was a
successful system. When the season
opened in January, Reinhart had
Gowans, Hobson, Latham, Chapman
and Shafer for his first varsity five,
four veterans of from one to two
years standing, and one a freshman
with lots of basketball experience be
fore coming to Oregon.
Everything looked good. The quick
pass system, the signals, the five man
defense were all working fine. The
players knew what each one was to
do. Then came a scrimmage before
the first conference game with Wash
ington and fate took her first toll
of the Oregon quintet. Chapman was
put out for practically the entire
season with a badly twisted knee,
the same one he hurt in football
scrimmage prior to 'the Washington
game.
With Chapman out, the Oregon
play crumpled slightly for a time.
Chapman was going fine and was
due for a great year, but fate said
“no." Then Gillenwaters came to the
fore and came up nobly. Ted, al
though not the polished player Chap
man is, did some wonderful work
during the season. One good thing
about him was that he thought bas
ketball when away from the maple
floor. When he was put into the
lineup, ho knew the plays and for
mations; he did not have to be told
what to do. Under the basket Gil
lenwaters was a demon and usually
succeeded in getting the ball away.
He was slightly tense in his playing,
a little nervous sometimes, but he
filled the bill.
Chapman out, the varsity steamed
merrily along until the Vandal reef
wrecked it. Oregon pulled off the
reef and steamed along with a slight
ly damaged rudder. All was well;
wo were still in the running for the
championship, when fate came along
and bashed our hopes again. The
day before the second tiff with Idaho
“Jake” Shafer went under the sur
geon’s knife for appendicitis, and
was out for the balance of the sea
son, when he was sorely needed.
Here is where the iron nerve of
Hal Chapman comes in. Ever watch
Hal at the games when he sat on the
bench with his crutches. He was
tense, was in every play. He couldn’t
keep away, and was back out in a
suit and took Shafer’s place against
the Vandals. Chapman played a
great game and on his nerves. With
his knee strapped in tape, he kept
the Moscow fivo worried and busy.
Hero is why Oregon lost that game
(not considering that fourth time
out.) Chapman was considered out
for the season. When he came back,
he had lost a lot of the team play.
Ilis eye had been off the basket for
some time and his shots were short.
He was nervous. Who wouldn’t be
with a knee in the condition his was
and is at tho present time?
A knee never gets well after it is
hurt as his was. That knee was shat- \
tered and torn, and Chapman was \
taking a big chance in playing at I
all. That’s iron nerve. A chance of
crippling himself, perhaps for life,
for a basketball game.
Well, had Shafer been there and
going ns he did throughout the sea- i
son, Oregon would have had that
last Idaho game. Shafer was good
for two or three baskets a game and
he would have scored them against j
Tdaho. Shafer was out, Chapman
and his nerve were there, but fate
said “no” and Oregon bowed to
defeat.
The Washington Huskies put Ore- i
gon out entirely in the last game
between the two schools. Billy didn’t
win the championship, but he won
the esteem of many followers of
basketball. He has brought some
thing to us, a system of which ho is
a master and a system which we
hope to see more of.
Our heart goes out to Billy Rein
hart. It was a hard blow on the
threshold of his conference career,
but he has won his master’s jrapers
and we hope to see him steering the
old varsity ship again.
Joe and the boys start digging \
up the dirt tomorrow afternoon, and
we have a hunch it’s going to be
some digging when Joe gets going.
•Toe is a dynamic soul, always going.
He no doubt got that from doing
time with “Hurry-Up” Yost and the
‘point a minute” Wolverines, at
Michigan.
Joe was anxious to got back and
dart the spring work and he isn’t;
going to be happy until he starts
bowing the boys how. Bert Spell

A Student—DuckSooChang
We read of mystery, intrigue and
patriotism in stories, newspapers and
histories concerning men who help
mould the course of empires and re
gard them as vague, fiction-like
characters, who could not possibly
be connected with our own every
day humdrum life. How few of us
realize that men, every bit as in
strumental and influential in their
own country as any of our world
known characters, can be found here
among our own acquaintances, even
on our own campus. Duck Soo
Chang is one of these. In the short
span of his 29 years, Mr. Chang
has organized and been editor of a
newspaper which has become the
largest of any in all Korea. He is
a leader in political moveirffents in
his native country and the trace of
his influence can be found in all
recent developments in that coun
try.
Now Mr. Chang has come to the
United States and to the University
of Oregon in order to study Ameri
can journalism methods. He plans
to attend Columbia university in
New York after remaining here one
year.
In 1919, Mr. Chang was impri
soned by Japanese officials for aid
ing a movement against the admin
istration of the Japanese governor
of Korea. His work was so success
ful that Japan removed the gover
nor and sent a new one, who was
not so autocratic and who promptly
released Mr. Chang and gave him
permission to publish a newspaper.
Starting only four years ago, the
newspaper has now a circulatoin of
60,000 and is the largest and best
liked by the Koreans of any in that
country.
The most interesting feature of a
newspaper in Korea is the editorials
and, since this paper, the Dong
Allbo, or Oriental Daily News, as it
is translated into English, has
from the beginning been for the
personal freedom of the masses
against the oppression of the Japan
ese, its popularity has been assured.
Mr. Chang said that editions of his
paper were suppressed by the
Japanese on an average of four
times a month and that at one time,
it was suppressed for a period of
four months. Enough, he said, to
keep life forever interesting. The
paper has its central office and is
published in Seoul, Korea, but much
of its news is furnished by cor
respondents from the provinces and
much of its circulation is in the
provinces, for there are no papers
outside of Seoul.
When asked about the makeup of
his newspaper, Mr. Chang said that
about half of the four pages is
written in Korean and the other
half in Chinese. The part of parti
cular interest to women and to the
uneducated classes in general is
written in the «®ative language and
the foreign news in the Chinese
language, for the more educated
classes. \
man is going to be down from Seattle
in a few days and then the sawdust
is going to fly higher.
The new mentor is going to see
that all his boys have their equip
ment, that’s why he got here early.
So tomorrow they start getting ready
for the conference season, next falL
Action Is Taken
To Curb Illness
University of California—(By P.
I. N. S.)—Action is to be taken by
the university infirmary and ad
ministrative offices to apprehend
and protect students from ill health
resulting from overwork of any
kind. This action is said to have
been brought about by the recent
disappearance of two university
students, which was caused by these
students laboring under excess
academic burdens.
It is now the aim of the infirm
ary, assisted by the office of the
recorder and the dean of men, to
give careful attention to all stu
dents carrying work of any kind
that would tend to undermine their
health.
The new measure is not being
taken to scare anyone out of carry
ing the work he wishes, but rather
to encourage and protect the stu
dent who undertakes extra work in
the pursuit of knowledge.
