Art Exhibit Is Cancelled Paintings Sent East Due to Interest Futuristic Display May Be Shown Tho exhibition of the paintings of Jonas Lie, Frederick Waugh, and Daniel Garber, which was scheduled for the last two weeks of June in the gallery in the Art3 building, has been cancelled, Ellis F. Lawrence, dean of the school of architecture and allied arts, an nounces. This is due to its unusual popularity in the middle west, the manager of the paintings writes Instead of being sent west, it will be returned to the east. Many Are Disappointed “We especially regret that it will not be on tho campus, because it is one of the finest things of its sort,” Dean Lawrence said of the exhibition. A number of Port land art lovers had written to Dean Luwrenco when it was first an nounced that the paintings would be on the campus, and in view of the fact that it was not to stop in Portland, they planned to seo it in Eugene. . An exhibition of paintings and craftswork of N. B. Zane, instruc tor in art at Jefferson high school, Portland, will bo held at the time scheduled for the other exhibition. Modern Art Sought Negotiations are being made by Dean Lawrence to secure tho paint ing collection by northwest artists now on exhibition under auspices of the Seattle Fine Arts society. An attempt will likewise bo made to obtain the exhibition of modern art brought west by Miss Sally Lewis of Portland, and exhibited in the Portland Museum of Fine Arts. It aroused a storm of news paper criticism during its show ing in Portland. Unlike the other exhibitions which have been shown on the campus, it. is a complete break with tradition, and belongs to tho school of the futurists. to Substitute Next Step — Elimination of All Barnacles By a. a. “One good campaign deserves another.” lUUICl. The Student Union being assured now for Oregon, the campus scribes take up their tireless pens once more for the “ultimate good.” This time it is in the cause of the tired student who has become a slave to the present system of campus activity. The gregarious instinct among students, which has led to the formation and painful perpetuation of dozens of superfluous campus organizations, is not confined to our University. We pride our selves, however, on a certain dis tinction in standards and methods. Over-organization is one of the few remaining blots on the liistorv which wc are making. We live in an era of campaigns. Tho more aggressive type makq de mands upon our pockets and the rest occupy the greater part of our time and energy. Now comes a paradox—a campaigner peace of mind, for leisure to pursue our in tellectual purpose and to enjoy Ute in ttiis peculiarly unworldly atmos phere in which Oregon students are blessed in finding themselves. A notable few exceptions have done this and withdrawn volun tarily from the campus game. Xo make it possible for the rest, a campaign seems necessary. It need not be militant and is not aimed to destroy stimulating and beneficial groups. It aims, rather, to create sentiment which shall erystalize into a strong pub lic opinion against excessive bur dens of organization. It aims above all to liberate us from the tyranny of meetings, dues, fines, minutes, and “old business,” and to bring organizations to a state where they shall servo, the individual rather than enslave him. If successful,, this effort will have a number of positive results. The man whom social and “honor ary” organizations have, hereto fore fettered, will now find time to go out for tennis or don a track suit. And such pastime is far more conducive to a long and dreamless sleep than an afternoon of successive sessions with three or four sets of “brothers. A recent survey of campus or ganizations reveals some sigmfi Brilliant Junior Promenade ****** Belahazzar a Genial Host 01(1 Belshazzar, the _ ancient one with the youthful heart, was a genial entertainer. Not long ago — Home two or throe or four thousand years, just how many doesn’t mat ter—he was head of the council for the town of Babylon; and as pre siding officer, it was frequently demanded that he play mine host, it is related, on more or less reli able authority, that he once enter tained a goodly portion of the city’s best families. Now it hap pened that one of his neighbors, Darius, wished to come to the party. When Bolshuzzait refused, being rather finicky, Darius knocked down the walls and made himself welcome. The laudable point about the whole business was that Belshazzar never the while halted the feasting and the drink - ing. This same Belshazzar is to be the host for the Junior Front, May 10. With him are coming numerous Assyrian slave girls who tire to dole spiced wine in it great plenty to th ' thirsty. And Istar, Belshaz zar’s love goddess, is to furnish TCLASSIFIED ADS I | Minimum charge, 1 time, 25c: Z time*, [ | 45c ; 8 times, 80c; 1 week, fl.ZO.

Sixty groups, ex clusive of fraternity and sorority houses, are consuming a generous amount of the time of some thou sand or more student members. Annual expenses per member vary from a dollar and a half to forty eight dollars and additional assess ments are inevitable. Unquestion ably, the bulk of money put into the maintenance of club papers, elaborate decorations, and illimit able paraphernalia can be ill af forded by University students. It could certainly be better spared for constructive work. The writer suggests that the approximate ten thousand dollar saving which would be effected in two years by the elimination of a score of campus organizations be put into furnish ings for the Student Union. Organization is robbing us of time and money. It is our greatest dissipation and probably yields less pleasurable return than most of the vices which we decry in other states of civilization. Is it not time that we began to make an in ventory of ourselves to find out wherein we are helping to foster such futility?

A few good rules should be followed, and these should not be changed frequently. Another panacea for the rushing situation among women is the doing away of false propaganda. Bushing should be attended by a spirit of sports manship, gracious conduct, and ab solute integrity. It is woman’s position in the community 20 years from now which is of importance, and if she has not integrity of character, her position in the com munity will be valueless. Mrs. Collins objects to the “sen timental democracy,” which pre vents superior individuals of groups from showing their utmost re sourcefulness. She believes social activities should be confined to weekends. Man’s instinct of self assertion is stronger than woman’s and constant association of the | two during the plastic years will 1 result usually in the girl's loss of j individuality. She loses the de- j sire for self-expression. Before filling the executive office of Chi Omega, Mrs. Collins prac ticed law in Kentucky. She is a member of Phi Beta Kappa.
