outing, as well as a meeting. For
this reason, it was decided at a con
ference of the members of the Uni
versity mathematics department, to
suggest Friday, June 19, as a fa
vorable date.
This date was chosen as coming
just before the opening of the Uni
versity of California summer ses
sion, which is June 22, just after
the examinations at Stanford uni
versity, ending June 17, and four
days after the commencement at
the Universities of Washington and
Oregon, on June 15.

of the Cascades, by way of the
McKenzie highway is planned for
Saturday, and a general lecture for
Friday evening. Suggested speak
ers for the latter occasion are Pro
fessor E. T. Ball of the University
of Washington, an authority on the
Einstein theory, and Professor
Florian Cajori of the University of
California,'Hhe ‘greatest1 living au
thority on the history of mathemat
ics.
MEMBERSOF FACULTY
PLAN Y.M.CJL DRIVE
A luncheon for members of the
faculty canvassing team for funds
for the University Y. M. C. A. was
given yesterday noon in the hut.
Professor F. S. Dunn, head, of the
campaign, was the main speaker,
outlining the purposes and methods
of the drive.
A quota of $1,000 is to be raised
in the week that the faculty drive
will be carried on. Another lunch
eon will be held at the hut at the
close of the campaign next Tues
day. Only men of the faculty will
be canvassed as the women will be
asked to give their support to the
Y. W. C. A.
The canvassing committee con
sists ^>f ten teams of two members
each which have been assigned to
different departments of the Uni

committee heads that in this mat
ter the canvassers will be able to
more easily get in touch with those
whom they are to see.
The sources of income of the cam
pus association outside of that
raised by the student body were
outlined at the luncheon yesterday.
Church boards give $1500 to its
support, Eugene citizens donate
$1200, the faculty appropriates
$1000 and $400 is received from
each of two sources, ithe Portland
district, and parents and alumni.

committee and the buildings as
signed to each team are as follows:

WOMEN TO ORGANIZE GROUPS
FOR DISCUSSION OF PROBLEMS
Trial Meetings Held Last Winter Term; Y, W. C. A.
Arranges for Leaders
A compact organization for lead
ership in discussion groups among
the women of the campus has been
arranged by the world fellowship
committee of the Y. W. C. A. T'
committee under the direction of
Ellen McClellan, chairman, is fur
thering the work of discussion
groups which inconspicuously oper
ated last year. The new organiza
tion hopes to create a campus in
terest in world problems and to
create fellowship between foreign
and American students.
The discussion groups will not be
limited. But in order that they may
operate efficiently, a leader for
each group will be appointed. The
groups will meet every two weeks,
from 6 to 7 o’clock.
Mildred Bateman is in charge of
the discussion group committee. She
announces the plans of the commit
tee. All foreign countries will be
studied. The social life, the politi
cal conditions, industrial develop
ments, geographical conditions that
may have influenced each nation in
its relation to other nations, the
educational aspects and the re
ligious influence of the nation
will be discussed. With a thorough
understanding of the problems of
foreign nations and a knowledge of
those of'the United States, it will
be possible to understand the rela
tion that exists between the United
States and other nations.
Every session will have two
leaders. One leader will lead the
discussion of these topics from a

HISTORY ORGANIZATION
IS FORMED ON CAMPUS
A new organization made up of
history majors and others interest
ed in history last night formed a
new permanent organization on the
campus. Two committees, one to
draw up a constitution and arrange
for membership and a second to ar
range for programs, were appoint
ed by Henry Sheldon, chairman.
“The purpose of the organization
is to develop ‘esprit de corps’
among those interested in history,’’
said Sheldon.
• Members of the committee on the
constitution are Edward C. Rob

general viewpoint. The sub-leader
will correlate these currents with
the religious aspect.
The efficiency of the organization
is guaranteed. Leaders of the i
groups will prepare bibliographies 1
concerning the discussed phases of I
each nation. In this way material ;
will be available for any member j
who wishes to secure data for her
topic.
The leaders of the groups are at- j
tempting to overcome a tendency
toward haphazardness. Each leader
will be chosen for her ability and i
knowledge of the questions of to- j
day, and not her religious inclina- \
tion.
The discussion groups arose last
year in the winter term. They were
an outcome of suggestions made at
a national student fellowship con
vention at Indianapolis. The groups
were not given publicity as they
were trial meetings. The success
of the picked groups led to the
adoption of resolutions for an ex
pansion to include all women who
are interested.
Those who will be responsible for
putting across the movement are
Ellen McClellan, general chairman;
Mildred Bateman, chairman of dis
cussion committee; Marian Barnes,
secretary; Jean Moffatt, corres
ponding secretary; Merle Oliver,
publicity; Jo Ann Warwick and
Helen Thwaite, posters; Georgia
Stone, bulletins; Lois LaRoehe, out
side contact; Marian Jenkins, cam
pus contact.
-O
bins, chairman; Oscar Winther aird
Mary Griffen.
The program committee is made
up of Mildred Hayden, chairman;
Elsie Dennis and Cecil S. Smith.
The new organization will dis
cuss problems of history. It is
planned to have papers presented
and discussed at the first meeting,
to be held in December. Dr. K. C.
■Clark, professor of history, pledged
the co operation of the history fac
ulty.
A special meeting will be held
next Wednesday evening to deter
mine further policies. Other mem
bers of the history department ana
those interested in history are ex
pected to attend.
