Schroff, head of the fine arts bn the campus. The mural 'will be taken up as a class problem, and ea*h member of the class will be assigned one figure on the canvas to complete. Students Take Part Preliminary sketches were made by each student and submitted in a general competition during the first part of the college year, but the mural itself, instead of being a development of one of the sketches, will be a theme combin ing various ideas worked out. Paper for the cartoons has been fastened to the east wall of the remodeled drawing and painting studio in the architecture building. On Tuesday, the first day the studio was opened for use since the extension of its north frontage, the work on the cartoons Was definite ly begun. Small sketches worked out in color covered part of the floor, and the drawing was started. Schroff in Charge The students will work under Professor Schroff as the appren tices in medieval times worked under the master painter or crafts man, and will benefit by his large experience in the work. Two of his murals, “Spring” and “Autumn,” belong to the University, and may be seen above the fireplaces in Alumni hall of the Woman’s build ing. The details of the subject have not yet been completely worked out but it is certain that it will be a millrace scene. The theme is to be some joyous student activity in the out-of-doors, such as canoeing, games, or races. DRIVE IN FULL SWING; LEADERS EXPLAIN NEED (Continued from page one) -« and mothers of the state are asking for their children; increased pro ductive power, greater efficiency, political advantages, and added cul ture. It is not right to these fathers and mothers that after they have struggled through about 20 years, denying themselves many things in order that their children might have the advantage of higher education, that we should apply wholesale methods, denying the in dividual contact with instructors that is so essential, or else turn them away altogether.” John MacGregor told of his visit to fhe Student Union building at California and of the important part this structure plays in the campus affairs of that institution. “My freshman class has been singled out for the greatest honor yet conferred upon any class,” de clared Dean Straub. “I see in this morning’s Emerald where their quota is $60,000.” “Can you raise it?” he asked the men in the gallery. “Yes,” came back the unanimous Students Attention!

Chambers, chairman of the city drive in Eugene, was called to the platform to explain what the people of Eugene were going to do in the matter of constructing an auditorium as a part of the $10, 000,000 campaign. “You’ll have to hurry to beat us to a building,” he informed the students, in the manner of a blase business man talking to a competi tor. “We’re going to have a meeting tomorrow night, and we’ll decide whether it’s to be a half a million or more. We’ll have a building up within two years. We’ll probably be able to start work in the spring.” As he sat down, the students, realizing he had said what is technically referred to as “a mouthful,” gave him a long, spontaneous burst of applause.

Lyle Palmer, sprinter and relay man, and Georgji Horsfall, diver and sprinter, are the two getting the. awards. To win a letter in swim ming, a person has to win a first place in a conference meetj or take eight points during the season.
