Fisher i i fr The unexpected summons of Mr. Fisher, at 58, cut in two and ended a service to the University that would have attained the great length of 24 years: almost a quarter century. For he was named regent in 1911, and had fulfilled one 12-year term; his second appointment, recently made, was for a period that I would not have terminated until 1935. Mr. Fisher’s long career as a newspaperman, the publisher of many weeklies and dailies, was remarkable for continuous financial success. So as a regent it was a point with him that the University, too, should have success; and it is perhaps not entirely coincidence that the institution’s greatest progress should have happened during his office. Sometimes he seemed mnduly conservative and even unsympathetic, but that in the main was to outsiders only; on the inside he was known as a man who never failed, after due discussion, to subscribe his name and his vote to any item of genuine University advance ment. He had his ideas of what meant progress. Mr. Fisher was reared and long worked, among those disciplines which every generation lias been accustomed to think of as a possession of the last generation preceding. In a way he led a hard sort of life, and fought for what he got. It was natural, then, that he should feel his greatest kindliness toward the students when of late years, to his mind, a greater degree of the disciplines in stu dent freedom began to enter among them. Sad indeed is it that he could never work in the new build ing into which his newspaper lias just moved; the first owned building, it is said, that one of his newspapers has ever occu pied. It is indeed sad, too, that he could not see the new Uni versity, physical and scholastic, to which he has been looking forward in common with us. The students did not know Mr. Fisher very well, and perhaps they will now realize that Mr. Fisher will be hard to replace. DOUGHNUT SPORTS ARE FAVORED BY ATHLETES (Continued from page one) hasty, is the opinion of Balph Spcurow, track captnin. lie be lieves that. the contemplation of the move should have been announced, the students given a chance to talk it over, then, if sentiment favored the abolishment, it could have been successfully carried through, Art Tuck, track and field man, is wholly in favor of intramural events, and believes that they are the ground work for athletics at the Pniver •ity. Views Are Given A few opinions chosen from stu dents interviewed follow: Junior: “Personally, I am in favor of doughnut sports. I look forward every year to playing baseball, and should no intramural program be offered this year, OUT house team will be organized, and attempt to work out a schedule any way.” Senior: “I am against all com petitive events in an inter-frater nity program. Too much rivalry is created, and entirely too much time is taken. Athletics are ail right, but house teams should simply or ganize and play when and whom they please, without outside help.” Junior: “I beliiwo that dough nut sports do more good than harm. I am for them.” Junior: “The girls’ intramural program is successful and thorough ly enjoyed. 1 see no reason why tlu> boys shouldn't have a good time too.” freshman wrestler: “I believe iu tho doughnut sports system and I think most of the men who turn out are in favor of it. My experi ence has been that the time is well spent.” Junior: “I think that the sports are a good tiling for the school, in tliat they develop a hearty esprit do corps, and do the men good.” Junior: "The program recently followed was not the best thing for the houses. Certain men boro the brunt of the athletics and matches often took time that was needed for other things. Too much competition was also conducive to rivalry of the undesirable sort.” Senior: “I am wholeheartedly in favor of athletics of all kinds. A man's menial development can not proceed faster than his physi cal development, and the huskier a man is, the bettor lie will be all around. Doughnut sports helped to develop athletes, something which this school needs badly. Janitor of the Journalism build ing, who is a father to two famous Oregon athletes, says: “The boys should get out and play for the games' sake, and the more and harder they play, the better they will be. Play square, and athletics will prove one of the finest phases of a young man’s education.” The opinions of various faculty members and athletic coaches will bo given iu an article to follow, and suggestions of intramural plans will be presented if any are forth coming within the next few days. OFFICER LIKES WORK OF COLLEGE R.O.T.C. Lt. E. F. Sloan Sees Change in Student Attitude Lieutenant Emerald Sloan, ’22, now stationed with machine gun com pany D, at Fort Missoula, Montana, is visiting on the campus on a two weeks' furlough. “It seems wonderful to be back,” said the lieutenant, “and we’re hav ing snow up in Missoula.” Lieutenant Sloan intends to make the army a permanent occupation. He praised the work of the R. O. T. C. saying that its training qualified stu dents to take up the duties of a regu lar army officer without difficulty. A marked difference in the general attitude toward the R. O. T. C. was noted by Lieutenant Sloan, during whose student days the faculty tried to abolish the organization. “There seems to be a different attitude among the students, too,” he re marked, “they seem to be getting a lot more out of it.” Lieutenant Sloan expects to be sent to the Philippine'islands within the next four months. For some time he thought of enrolling in the chem ical warfare service, capitalizing his college chemical experience. How ever, he decided that he preferred to handle men to “things.” While on the campus, Lieutenant Sloan was president of the Oregon and chemistry clubs and a member of the track team. He majored in chem istry and minored in military train ing, taking honors in both. STUDENT CABINETS TO HOLD CONVENTION This coming week-end the cabinets and officers of the student Y. W. G. A. in the universities and colleges of the state will meet at Salem for a two-day convention. ■ General discus sion on the work of the year will be held, and many prominent secretar ies on the coast will be speakers at the meeting.

Florence Buck, president of the campus association, has not as yet been able to give the list of Oregon women who will attend the meeting. Delegations will be there from Ore gon Agricultural college, Albany col lege, Pacific university, Pacific col lege, Willamette university and Un iversity of Oregon.

TWO CORNELL MEN FINED FOR CHEATING Cornell University—As a result of a meeting of the central honor committee, held recently, a junior in the college of arts and sciences has been dropped from the univer sity for one term, and upon his re turn must submit three extra hours for graduation, while a sophomore in tho college of agriculture will be required to present six addi tional hours towards graduation. Tho junior was found guilty of copying reports in physics. In the case of two reports, the man had copied tho data and computations from some reports of last year, in place of his own data taken in the laboratory. The decision in the ease of the sophomore was reached because the man had been found guilty of an irregularity in a preliminary exami-1 nation, given in a surveying course ' in the civil engineering college. The student admitted his guilt. This cap stays put! Other caps get lost but the new Williams Hinge-Cap stays where you want it. Truly, that's an improvement. Like the cap, the shaving cream in the Williams tube is a big improvement, too. For Williams lather is heavier and faster-working. It holds the water in, so that your beard is softened sooner. And the lather lubricates. The razor fairly glides over your skin! Because of a soothing ingredient in Williams you can shave daily yet always have a smooth and well-cared for face. Williams is pure, natural-white cream. Absolutely without coloring matter. Buy it, try it—with the new Hinge-Cap! WiUiams Shaviig Cream The J. B. Williams Company, Glastonbury, Conn.
