Pete Laurs _—---—-"S* Ph‘i Beta Kappa and Accomplishment Twenty-four Oregon seniors are receiving congratulations upon their election into Phi Beta Kappa, a recognition which for decades has been given to brilliant students and which places those so honored in the brotherhood of such men as the late Woodrow Wilson, Or. Charles Eliot and John Quincy Adams. Despite the notion that many persons hold that a Phi Beta Kappa is a “grind” and a recluse, those who were elected Thursday include many who have participated fully in campus affairs. The student-body president was chosen, having the second highest average, 1.43, an unusual accomplishment and one de serving of applause. This man carried a heavy burden of A. S. U. O. executive work all year and in previous years was always interested in the larger campus movements. Besides this he has earned his way through the University. There are others in the list, many self-supporting and nearly all active, whose election is proof sufficient that the busiest people do the finest work. In the face of such accomplishment what right have ath letes and others to shirk scholastic tasks or desert a coach when they are most needed just because they are “too busy”? There is such a thing as too much activity, especially if that activity is lacking in the quality that makes it worth while. There are types of campus endeavor that add materially to the fullness of University experience. Students like Claude Robinson demonstrate just how full and worthwhile four years at Oregon can be. The Student Union drive brought some of the other kind' of students into the lime-light. Compare them with our student-body president or with any one of other campus leaders who made Phi Beta Kappa. It is easy to see who gets the most out of life; but more important that that, it is also easy to discern who makes the campus, or the world for that matter, better for having lived ill it. Candidates are finding it difficult to determine just what degree of cordiality they should assume, these days. Cheer up, it will all be over next Wednesday night. We wonder what kind of platform the candidates for presi dent and for vice president will submit for publication early next week. Two hundred and fifty words can say a lot. The campus is looking forward to the Junior Vod-vil which is scheduled for tonight. Last year it was the best show of the season and much is expected of tonight’s performance. VISITING DEANS FORM A NEW ORGANIZATION (Continued from page one) from all college* ami universities on the Pacific, coast were eligible to at tend the convention.

Claude Robinson has announced he will pit his strength against Don Zimmerman for the presidency of the A. S. U. O. The petitions signed by the stu dents urging the retention of Bohler as varsity basketball coach were presented to the administra tion today. Students do not attend church because they are reluctant to break into denominational groups, according to Bruce J. Giffen, pas tor of the Presbyterian church in Eugene. Twenty-five University men will attend tlie R. O. T. C. summer camp at American lake this sum mer. The senior class has dropped clean-up day. Another tradition goes by the board. A number of national officers of the Brotherhood of American Yeo men were visitors on the campus yesterday. UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA INCREASES CO-ED ATHLETICS University of California—Wom en’s sports are to take a wider as pect at the University of Califor nia next semester, and the W. A.

L. J. Editor SATURDAY, A. M. Volume 3 Number 23 POLITICAL SMOKE SHROUDS CAMPUS Drag out the oil wells ami the steel bridges, local politicians are holding sway. After listening to the merits of a multitude of beings who have mouths that can talk, acquaintances among their friends, girls that have i been in minds for years and the like, the political season is on, for better and for worse, with the accents on the last syllable. The nice thing about student body I elections around here is the some i body always wins, and the rest can get eonsoluation, satisfaction and re ief at Obak’s Kollege Klub. There are several new and pre viously unconsidered elements in this year’s campaign. For example, the Krier has just learned that many of the prospective officers of the A. 8. IT. O. gained confidence in their ability from Richards, the magician, who visited the Heilig theater re cently. Figging will also have consider able to do with the success of the uewlv organised handshaking group. Politicians without dates will be as scarce as Phi Beta Kappas on the Krier staff for the next seven days. One energetic self promoter has re served a complete section at the .Tunior Vod-vil and another has al most a complete monopoly on the of ferings of the Anchorage Raceway. Politics are on, and somebody is going to lose—there will be an im portant meeting of the Lame Pucks at Obak's Kollege Klub Thursday, May 8. invitations will be sent later. o The Old Spirit Two local aspirants for office get ting along like brothers in the pre vailing political siege. Politics here are always clean—in fact reputations sell for about 15 cents a dozen during this season of scholastic year. “Po litical Fellowship” is the title of the above illustration. KRIER EDITOR IS TO LEAVE! Due to the fact that the present editor of the Krier has deemed it wise to not return to school next fall there is considerable excitement in political circles in regard to a new editor. The wide spread influence of this publication, its assistance to the campus in general makes the election of a new man very difficult. In order to avoid politics with their mud and slander the election for the Krier editorship has been postponed to a later date. However, it is to be remembered that while Krier edi tors may come and may go the ser ice, food, smokes and fellowships of the Kollege Klub goes on forever. I hockey have' been added to the list of women ’g competition, and the rifle, crop and saddle, and swimming clubs are all increasing in their activities. CAMPUS HIGH HEARS TALK BY FIRE RANGER Paul Wiesendanger, of the United States forest service, gave a talk to the University high school assembly this week as a part of their program for fire prevention week. Mr. Wies endanger had charge of the Eagle creek camp on the Columbia River Highway last year and has served as a ranger in a number of places. His lecture consisted of naming and explaining the use of the various in strumments that are used by forest rangers for the prevention and check ing of fires. He also showed a num ber of slides of the timber and the means of its protection, and a film put out by the forest service showing the danger of fires and their spread. The Oregana Cool Off! —in these eventful days of “politic ing” it’s too hot to stand outside and talk it over . . . come down to the Oregana where it is cool. The Oregana is the coolest place to eat or drink. A cold “coke” will make a difference.

In this age of electricity the General Electric Company has blazed the trail of electrical pro gress. Y ou will find its monogram on the giant generators used by lighting companies; and even on the lamps and little motors that mean so much in the home. It is a symbol of useful service. HENRY CAVENDISH 1731-1810 English chemist and physicist, of whom Biot said, “He was the richest of the learned and the most learned of the rich. Hislast great achievement was his famous experiment to de termine the density of the earth. He first made water from gases Henry Cavendish, an eccentric millionaire recluse, who devoted his life to research, was the discoverer of the H and the O in H20. In fact he first told the Royal Society of the existence of hydrogen. He found what water was by making it himself, and so became one of the first of the synthetic chemists. Cavendish concluded that the atmosphere contained elements then unknown. His conclusion has been verified by the dis covery of argon and other gases. The Research Laboratories of the General Electric Company have found a *use for argon in developing lamps hundreds of times brighter than, the guttering candles which lighted Cavendish’s laboratory.
