Ph’ones JMitor..... 655 | Manager __ 951 1 Dai’y News Editor This Issue Night Editor This Issue I Frances Simpson Walter Coover Assistant . Ed Miller The University Man Outside ■-- I Gale Seaman, well-known student Y. M. C. A. worker, who is arriving today from the south for a short period of activity on the Oregon campus, tells the story of a traveling salesman, whom he recently met on a train in California. The salesman was a graduate of two well-known educational institutions, one i l of them of international reputation. i By mistake the traveler had taken a train which was reach- | \ug its destination at 2 p. m. rather than 10 a. in., as he had ex- l pected. Another calamity, the diner had been “set out,” there- . by depriving him of breakfast, except for oranges, apples, ban- ’ anas, chocolate bars and cakes, furnished by the news man. Three hours of extra time and such a meal were intolerable ! circumstances to the ex-college man. He had evidently forgot- ■ i ten the cornflakes and cold milk of undergraduate days. The ( women with children, who happened to be in his car, did not ‘ seem to mind missing breakfast, but the University man was de- i cidedly impatient and resentful at Providence. A college mag- 1 azine with pictures and articles of unusual interest and great i significance was given the irked one by the “Y” worker. In ; five minutes he had abandoned the magazine and spent the rest ! of the three hateful hours reading a ten cent thriller featuring c an illuminating article entitled, “The Kiss Aflame.” If lliis represents the real man, the real college graduate, be I hind the good clothes he wore, how would you guess the t thoughts of the “average American” fellow traveler who ob- ‘ served our friend’s demeanor under such “terrifying condi- s ! tions” of life—a slow train and only apples, oranges, chocolate t and fig bars for breakfast? Some will say he was spoiled by his rich parents who failed 1 to give discipline and training in some basic human virtues. . Perhaps the answer here is—get him a new set of parents, such ' as Mr. Rockefeller, Jr., has, who will bring him up in sensible ■ fashion with frugal, industrious habits and a disciplined mind and body needs for any emergency. Others will say that the luxuries and extravagance of ourj time and his generous travel expense account have made him j selfish and hard. As answer here, we suggest the farm or the navy at about $1 per day, or a summer like Whiting Williams spent in the steel mills of Pennsylvania. Still others will answer that his unhappy condition is be cause of the machine-like and impersonal nature of his college training. That’s easy; blame it on the college. Why not? Granting that this chap has missed something somewhere along the line, let his college leaders stand straight up and take such blame as belongs to them. Tolerating a social system and an unbalanced college perspective which produces too many “stom ach level” men and too few of marked intellectual ability, is of course wrong. Fortunately, college loaders are in the front line of those who work to reduce the kind of men this salesman represents and multiply the number of Robert Speers, Norman Colemans, Dave Porters, Arthur Hughs and Paul Blanshards. Again, Chancellor David Starr Jordan’s words seem appropriate:' “Of worth-while things that come near to me, three stand out as all-important—clean living, sound education and fair play be tween men and between nations.” PSYCHOLOGIST RETURNS FROM TRIP TO SALEM I)r. Edmund S. Conkliu, head of the University psychology depart ment, retumod yesterday from a trip of a day and a half to Salem.' While at the capital, Or. Conklin was the guest of the Rotary club and spoke at one of their regular meetings. He also addressed the students of the Salem high school.

NTRAMURAL SPORTS ARE UP TO STUDENTS (Continued from page one) veakness of the old system was iointed out by Hayward. This was hat men would often enter con ests when they were out of con lition, and poorly trained. This iften did more harm than good, e said, and ho advocated that the non take better care of themselves j nd refrain from any sports they j cero not suited for. Sports Develop Men Bill Reinhart, baseball and bas :etball coach, is staunchly for the ntramural program, but he would drnit some limitations. Many an ithlote has been developed in in erfraternity competition, he points ut, and without an incentive to day with his peers, a man who night later bo a good varsity layer would never be known. The other members of the de artmonts express similar senti lonts. The question of develop ug “sportsmanship,” “cooperative eeling” and “development of the ndividual” have all been tlior ughly discussed in previous ar ieles, hence it is unnecessary to aelude opinions on this subject. So just what the fate of intra lural athletics will be remains in lie hands of the students. At pres nt, a committee of the inter raternity council is working on a ubstitute plan, and until this is | nnouncod, little can be done in he matter. In an article to follow, the opin ons of faculty members who are! iot directly concerned with ath- j etics will bo given, and as soon as ny substitute plans are announced, I everal will be given a chance to! ixpress their views regarding them.

The Brownsville Woolen Mills Store 7th and Willamette Physics Assistants Burned by X-Ray Machine ° Boys Suffer Pain and Lose Sleep Through Exposure of Hands Leonard Neuman, graduate assist ant in the physics department, and Maryl Deming, graduate assistant in the chemistry department, both re ceived severe X-ray burns from the X-ray in the physics department Sat urday, when they were taking pic tures of their hands. The burns are said to have been caused from over exposure in the machine. Deming was burned on both hands, i while Neuman received the burn on l only one hand. The X-ray appar atus the assistants were using is lo oted in the physics laboratory in Deady hall. Instead of using the hard or pen etrating rays as they should have done, the two boys used only the very soft rays. This meant that they had to expose their hands extraordinarily lop"- Several pictures were taken. Neuman said that he didn’t sleep a wink Saturday night on account of the burns. He has been troubled ever since with a kind of itch in the hand. Deming has been worried over his pains.. Both boys have been taken to local doctors, but there is nothing they can do for the burns, except to apply zinc oxide to soothe the burning sen sations. The X-ray burn is very similar to a sunburn, except that the burn from tho former may penetrate clear through the body. X-rays are short er and more harmful to the tissues. many results in city TREE PLANTING.
