GLASS SEEKING PERFECT TOWN New Civic Laboratories Will Be Established RESULTS TO BE PRINTED Aim is for Betterment Of Communities “A perfect community.” The phrase may seem to suggest an im possibility to many, but this is the goal toward which the school of sociology, through the establishing of what Dean F. G. Young de scribes as ‘‘civic laboratories,” is working. The first step in this work was made last spring, when 80 communities were given maps to fill -out, in which were the -loca tions of the business houses and so cial institutions which formed the town or city. Due to the fact that these were sent out very late in the spring all of them have no9 ye.t been returned, but the rest are expected in soon, according to Dean Young. Community to be Graded The second step consists of grad ing the community, according to a scale given in community score card, published by • the Federal Council of Citizenship Training. Each feature of the organization and development of the town is here given a certain grade. The interpretation of the data given in these two processes is then done by the school of sociology, which is thus in a position to help the com-, munity develop itself. ‘‘The idea of obtaining this material is so the people may know themselves as a going concern, in all their vital ele ments, ’ ’ said Dean Young. ‘ ‘ This includes not only business concerns but all social institutions ja|nd groups which have a bearing upon the lives of the people.” The results of the investigations are to be tabulated and placed in either a public or high school li brary, at the disposal of the lead ing citizens of the town who will take upon themselves the work of perfecting their institutions in this so-called civic laboratory. ‘‘Apply ing scientific methods on social phenomena,” is the way Dean Young described this work. ‘‘By knowing what is going on among themselves the people can soon plan a community so it would attain near perfection of beauty and ef ficiency, ’ ’ he said. School to Distribute Data The part played by the Univer sity school of sociology in this is thus to act as center for the dis tribution of the informaiton neces sary, such as the maps and scor ing systems used, and in a general way to stimulate and guide each community to a study of its prob lems. ‘‘This puts the University at the command of every community,” said Dean Young. ‘‘It thus assists in a sort of extension work, as it stimulates a continuance of the edu cation of leading citizens in each community by letting them work out a subject most interesting to them, and enabling them to actually do something under scientific meth ods. It is in fact a form of com munity projeit education. ’ ’ Y. M. C. A. DRIVE OPENS WITH RALLY LUNCHEON (Continued from page one) $100 was raised among the workers themselves. The Phi Gamma Deltas have gone over 100 per cent with their quota by adding it to the house bill. Of the teams outside of the organizations, Dell Tedrow’s team is ahead, having raised $33.50 to date. All teams are working hard and re port that the drive is going in great shape. Pamphlets, describing the work of the campus “Y” were distributed among the canvassers and pledge cards for each prospect were also given out. .Names were chosen by the workers and solicitation will begin at once. Speeches were made at the living organizations last night by Y. M. 'C. A. men, in which the financial' problem of the local as sociation was put before these groups.

This test is being conducted ; on competitive basis and the win ner will be announced the latter ! part of next we$k. . To Determine Skill . j Through this dual meet with Wil ' liams college and other schools who i will probably be met later on, the ! physical education department hopes to determine exactly what i physical skill the incoming fresh . man should have. When this has i been determined by the physical ; education department, a request 1 will be made to state school offic | ials to include this in the state high school course of study. There are at the present time many high schools in the state where little or no physical education is required. This makes it much harder for the! University Physical Education de-l partment as they have to start ini on inexperienced men. J HflYCOX HAS SUCCESS IN CREAM WRITING Oregon Graduate Has Sold Many Short Stories Ernest J.
