SECRETARY FOR
Old Oregon Editor to be
Jeannette Calkins
EUROPEAN TRIP WADE
Homecoming Number Due
About October 15
Miss Jeannette Calkins, ’IS, has
taken the position as alumni secre
tary and editor of Old Oregon for
the October and possibly the Novem
ber issue. For the past year, Miss
Calkins has been traveling in Europe
and returned to Eugene in time for
commencement last June, after cross
ing the country by automobile.
Miss Calkins has been connected
with the magazine since March, ’19,
three months after the first edition.
She occupied the position of business
manager at that time and with the
•exception of a few months when she
was acting editor, she has held that
position since. The regular editor
has not as yet been appointed and
Miss Calkins will serve as editor and
business manager until that time. She
will continue as business manager all
year.
Plans Are Announced
The next edition of Old Oregon
will be the Homecoming number.
There is usually one issue before the
Homecoming, but due to the fact that
the week-end is earlier than usual,
the publication will be issued for
that event, causing more difficulty
than the editing entails ordinarily.
All alumni will receive copies, which
will be issued about October 15. The
cover will be a picture of Villard and
Heady, and in addition to the reg
ular departments as sports by Web
ster Jones and poetry edited bv Mar
garet Skavlan, there will be pictures
t of the campus, of athletes and pro
fessoors. One picture of interest is
of Eugene’s main street before the
days of pavement and street cars.
Inez King will write campus notes
and there will be Homecoming feat
ures. Dean Straub will be the subject
for the articles on campus deans,
■“Under the Gargoyles.”
Letters to be Issued
In addition to the editing of Old-,
Oregon, Miss Calkins as alumni sec
retary, will issue seven or eight thou
sand letters to “alums” before
Homecoming. Later, she will issue
an alumni directory. The new sec
retary was business manager of the
Emerald in 1917-18 and is the only
woman who has held that position.
She is a member of Theta Sigma Phi
and was a member of the Oregana
Staff and of the Emerald.
Aviation Course Desired By
University Students
Petition for Unit Requires Names
Of Fifty Men
o-o
There has been some agitation on
the campus lately to request plac
ing a course in aviation with the R.
O. T. C. At present only two col
leges on the Raeifie coast have it,
the University of California and the
University of Washington.
There is a limit to the units which
are installed by the government at
the various colleges, with the ex
pense of keeping up the R. O. T. C.
divided equally among them. For
this reason, Oregon will have to
make application for the new avia
tion unit before any other college
on the coast, applies for it. Any
delay will probably ruin Oregon’s
chance to get it here.
To make a request for this unit it
is necessary to have the names of
50 men. Col. Sinclair requests that
any (who wish to take this course
apply at the R. O. T. C. headquar
ters or call Chic Rosenburg at the
A. T. O. house.

gating a sum of about $125,000 were
completed and occupied before the

and plans have been finished for the
construction of four additional fra
ternal residences.

pleted its new home on Hilyard
street near the millrace and was pre
pared to accommodate the members
on their return to the University.

latest interior conveniences were in
stalled. The building was estimated
to cost approximately $30,000.

rority, hopes to be able to move into
its new $35,000 home on Fifteenth
and Alder streets before Saturday of
this week. The house is of Spanish
design, stuccoed, and has a spacious
interior. Several novelties add to the
convenience of the house, such as a
men’s lounging room with fireplace,
a sprinkling device for window boxes,
a switchboard connecting each room
to the telephone and to each other.
An interior fire escape will permit
rapid flight from the two upper
floors.

Alpha Tau Omega, men’s fraternity,
at Eighteenth and Onyx streets, was
begun last week, and the house will
be ready for occupancy about the
first of the year. It will be of

to all students and to freshmen in
particular. »

giving n. s. f. eheel*fc is thaf* no
more cheeks from them will be ac
cepted by the business office dur

was pointed out, n. s. f. cheeks

on the University.
NEW SHED IS ERECTED
FOR R. 0. T. C. DRILL
There has been a new drill shed
erected this year for the R. O. T.
C. men. This building is 60 by 120
feet anl is large enough to hold one
company at a time without being
crowded.
The building, which has a spe
cially designed roof, is the first of
it’s kind to be erected around Eu
gene. There are no pillars in the
building supporting the roof, but in
place of these are placed lattice
trusses running the width of the
building. This overcomes the ne
cessity of having pillars on the floor,
taking up the much needed drill
room. The new truss supports were
invented by Charles Turner of this
city.
