NEWS SERVICE SYSTEM
CHANGED BY EMERALD
A new system of sending the
Pacific Intercollegiate News Sfcr
▼ice stories has just beem adopted
by the Emerald which is a member
of this service. In the past, carbon
oopies of the stories have been sent
to the different schools, but now
regular printed articles will be sent
out. The material is arranged in
tiro columns with a space between
each story, so that it can be clipped
and used without copying.
The P. I. N. S. editors mark the
original story in the Emerald which
is to be used, usually the lead, and
the same type used for printing
the original copy is used for the
columns. In this way. there is no
extra expense.
Copies of the news for the week
is sent out each Saturday to 25 or
30 colleges and universities all over
the country. A head is to be made
on the material which will include
the Oregon seal, the name of the
paper and the names of the two
P. I. N. S. editors and assistant,
Pauline Bondurant, Josephine Ul
rich and Louis Dammasch.

ALLAN CLARK LEAVES
FOR SANTA BARBARA

school of music, left for his home at
Santa Barbara, yesterday, accom
panied by Dr. W. K. Livingston, of
the University health service.
Clark has been confined to the
infirmary during the past month or
more with an attack of bronchitis
and pleurisy. He recovered suf
ficiently to permit the trip to his
home in California, so the depart
ment decided that it would be best
to send him where he could be in
touch with his relatives. He may
be placed in a hospital in Santa
Barbara for a short while to insure
absolute recovery, it was said by
a member of the health department.

HOTED VISITORS
SEE EXHIBITION
Jury Day Guests’ Views Are
Encouraging to Methods
Used in School .of Art
CARLSON’S WORK SENT
Normal Art, Sculpture, and
Architects’ Clubs All Give
Stunts at Regular Meeting
The Jury Day for the term in
the school of architecture and al
lied arts, which began with criti
cisms of the student work on dis
play, and ended with a gathering
of the big art and architecture
family, was honored by distin
guished visitors from the state—
C. D. James, Portland architect,
president of the Oregon chapter of
the American Institute of Archi
tects; Morris H. Whitehouse, Port
land architect; Prof. Leo Fair
banks, director of art at Oregon
Agricultural college, and Miss
Esther Wuest. director of art in
the Portland public schools.
Second Prize Offeled
A valuable book on “Brick Archi
tecture in Italy” was presented by
Mr. Whitehouse to the Camilla
Leach memorial art library. Mr.
Whitehouse also supplemented the
prize of $25 offered annually by
the institute to the senior making
the most progress during the four
years, by offering a second prize of
Pugin’s “Gothic Details” to the
man rating next in development.
Both Mr. Whitehouse and Mr.
James were very encouraging in
their view of the new method of
teaching architecture—that of elim
inating competition. The Univer
sity of Oregon school of architec
ture and allied arts was declared
by Mt. WhitehouSfe tjo have the
finest creative spirit in all branches
of any he had visited. The Carnegie
Institute of Technology, he said,
was the only one he had visited
in which the unity of the arts was
emphasized as it is here.
“I fear the 'people of the state
do not realize the fine work that
is being done here,” Mr. White
house declared. ‘
Fairbanks Gives Vision
Prof. Leo Fairbanks gave the
students a vision of the Northwest
as a great art center. It is here
especially, he said, that the spirit
of Americanism is given the chance
for greatest expression. He is in
sympathy with the views of his
brother, Prof. Avard Fairbanks,
University sculpture head, in desir
ing a truly American art expres
sion.
A talk on the teaching of art
as a profession was made by Miss
Wuest to the students of the nor
mal arts department at 2 o ’clock.
She approached the subject from
the professional point of view, and
emphasized the cultural side of the
individual’s development, which
must be accompanied by tact in
dealings with the public to gain
confidence. She gavei an illustrated
talk on the teaching of poster
design. Students from the school
now teaching in Portland were
highly commended by Miss Wuest.
Carlson Exhibition Comes
Besides the student work on dis
play great interest was added to
the occasion by' the arrival of the
John F. Carlson exhibition of water
colors, which were shown in Port
land from March 9 to 31. These
arrived at the last minute, and were
hung by the art faculty in the small
gallery late Tuesday night so that
the exhibition could be opened to
the public yesterday morning. Tho
paintings will be on the campus for
some time.
Stunts by the Normal Arts club,
the Sculpture club, and tht Archi
tects’ club finished the day with
an 8 o’clock affair in the College
Side Inn. The designing of a bunga
low by a designing architect who
put in the “bungle” finished the
program. Mrs. Avard Fairbanks
gave two readings.
A buffet lunch was followed by
dancing, and an informal reception.
CORRESPONDENCE STUDENT
HAS ARTICLE IN MAGAZINE
An article written by Ruth
Cooper Whitney, a correspondence
student of the University, appeared
in the last number of “Social Prog
ress.” “The University Comes to ,
the Mothers,” is the title of the |
article which deals with the value j
and extent of correspondence work.
Freshmen Asked
to Furnish Own
'Paddles Friday
Users of Senior Bench
to Be Rebuked
From now on, frosh will provide
their own paddles at Friday morn
ing library steps sessions, it was
decided at a meeting of the Order
of the “O” held Tuesday noon.
The freshman president was urged
to liven things up so that the reg
ular assembly “show” could go on
for the entertainment of the rest
of the campus.
That underclass women should be
rebuked for sitting on the senior
bench, was also an opinion ex
pressed at the meeting. “Several
seem to be taking advantage of a
privilege which is not extended to
them” is the grievance voiced by
the members and it was thought ad
visable for the women’s order to
take some action.
A reminder that wives of mem
bers of the Order of the “O” aro
the only women eligible to wear the
“O” sweaters, was also voiced at
the meeting.
SET FOR SUNDAY, MAY 4
Junior Vod-vil to be Part of
Week-end Program
The program for Mothers’ day
was tentatively outlined at a meet
ing of the committee Tuesday eve
ning. Because the date of Mothers’
day falls on May 11 this year, it
conflicts with Junior week-end.
Student body officials have ar
ranged to hold the event on the
campus Sunday, May 4.
This arrangement brings Mothers’
week-end at the same time as the
Junior Vod-vil and provides
another feature for the mothers.
The Vod-vil is not a part of the
regular week-end program and stu
dents taking their mothers will
have to procure tickets in the
same manner as their own.
The regular Mothers’ day pro
gram begins on Saturday noon, May
3. There will be the usual tea and
musical in the Woman’s building
during the afternoon. This feature
of the program is being arranged
by Gwladys Keeney. The Vod-vil
will be given on Saturday night,
so no other feature is planned for
that evening.
On Sunday there will be vesper
services as usual. Plans for the ves
pers have not yet been made public.
Janet Wood is in charge of arrang
ing the vesper service. The invi
tations which are to be sent to the
mothers, are being eared for by
Truman Sether. Mary Skinner is the
chairman in charge of Mothers’
week-end, and is helped, besides
the committee, by Georgia Benson
and Frank Carter.
The program this year is very
like those of the preceding years.
The main idea of the committee is
to make it an enjoyable week-end
for the mothers and to give them a
taste of the life their sons and
daughters are leading at the Uni
versity.
SIGMA XI WILL MEET
IN PORTLAND APRIL 18;
The Oregon chapter of Sigma Xi :
will hold its April meeting in Port
land on the eighteenth of the
month. Members will be elected at
that time. The December and
April meetings are held at Port
land for the benefit of tho medical
school and Portland members of
the organization.
The membership is divided into
two classes, a full membership and
an association membership. One

or have produced some valuable ad
dition to the scientific world to be
elected to the organization.

FOR PAYING OF FEES
Five days more and the time for
paying fees will bo hero. One week,

the time for ridding one’s self of all
extra cash. At this time all labora
tory fees, non-resident, and registra
tion fees will be payable. As usual
the $3 fee for paying foes after noon
on April 12 will be in force.

not go to the trouble of warning
those who do not pay their fees, ac
cording to E. P. Lyons, cashier. Un
der the new registration system it is
too hard to check up to see who are
registered in the University and who
are not. This term the plan is to
take only those who do pay their fees
as those who are registered, and to
give those credit for the courses they
take. AH those who fail to pay fees
for their University work will not
receive credit for their work.

Hayward Field Is Scene
of Conference; Plans Are
Told, Troubles Discussed
EIGHTY MEN TURN OUT
“Don’t Come Here for Gym
Grades Alone; This Is a
Major Sport,” Says Bill
By W. S. A.
“If you want a track team, we’ll
have one. If you don’t, we aro
going to quit,” is the. way Coack.
Hayward began his address to the
80 or more men assembled on Hay
ward field last night. “The Uni
torsity pays too much money for
track work to have it wasted by
men loafing through the season.”
This was a real heart to heart
conference, at which the men spoke
“right out in m/betin„” and the
coach explained his plans and his
position. He showed that of the
64 men working out for the varsity
team last term, only 39 were left;
and tho freshman squad had
dwindled from 68 to 46. It is these*
who are left that Bill has chris
tened his “Old Faithfuls,” and it
is from these that Oregon must
depend for a championship team.
Blsley Makes Talk
“I’ve beon working for three
years,” said Vic Risley, “and thk
is the first time that Oregon has
had an opportunity to put out a
championship team. I certainly hate
to hear of these men sluffing off
this way and I think something
should be done to show them the
error of their ways.” Arthur Ros
braugh also stated his sentiments.
“Beginning next week,” informed
Coach Hayward, “practice will start
for every man every day. If some
thing is wrong, come and tell me;
but unless something is wrong,
either work or quit.” This was
a curt declaration, nojt so much
for tho men who were there, as for
those who had so many social en
gagements they didn’t have time to
come.
In outlining his system of train
ing, Bill showed that tho majority
of men are entering college younger
now than in formor years, so, for
that reason, ho intended to de
velop them gradually, rather than
run the risk of injuring them.
Coach Explains Stand
“I don’t want to ‘burn them
out’ at tho ago of 17 or 18 to mako
stars of them—then have them in
the hospital by the time they are
21,” he explained. Consequently,
he is attempting to develop them as
they can stand the pace, and offers
this explanation for those young
fellows who have felt they were
not being pushed ahead as rapidly
as they were capable of. This is
part of the reason for Bill liking
to work with green material. Often
the high school star has ruined him
self by doing too much at too
young an age.
“Don’t come out here for ‘gym*
grades alone,” Bill pleaded. “This
is a varsity sport and you are try
ing for a varsity team; if you don’t
like such a hard grind, get your
grade playing golf, or pulling chest
work. I’d rather not have you out
here at all, if you aren’t here to
heir, build n track team.”
Saturday Work Vital
Bill also asked the men to under
stand that when he took a man
from his favorite position he did
it for the good of the team; not
through any personal grudge or
spite. Here the coach grinned as
though the thought of him letting
his personal feelings enter a thing
so petty amused him.
In the competition Saturday, all
men are expected to work, as they
will be in the following Saturday
meets. This is a vital part of the
training; for many meets, claimed
the coach, have been lost by men
who are unable to do their best
under competitive conditions. Lots
of competition is necessary to over
come this.
UNIVERSITY WILL NOT
HAVE EASTER VACATION
There will be no vacation during
Easter, according to information
given out through the president’s
office, since the old Easter vacation
is now absorbed in spring vacation.
There will be two holidays during
the spring term, University day,
