LECTURES DEAL
Campus Meetings, Open to
All, Are Planned
OUTSIDERS WILL SPEAK]
Representative Beliefs of
World are Topics
A series of lectures is being \
■planned in which the history of the
representative religions of the
world will be traced. The course
of these talks is in charge of the
United Christian Work," the official
religious organization of the Uni
versity. The organization co
ordinates all the religious activities
of the campus.
Dr. Rebec to Speak
The first lecture will be given
at the beginning of the winter term.
The other lectures will follow in
regular sequence. Dean George i
Rebec of the graduate school will j
deliver the first talk. He will dis
cuss the philosophy of religion.
This discussion will be followed by
a discussion of the phychology of
religion. Primitive religions is the
subject next selected.
The religions that will be con
sidered are Buddhism, Mohammed
ism, Judaism and Christianity as
expressed by Catholism and Protes
tanism. The final talks will be in
the nature of a summary and the
trend of the religious thought of
today will be analyzed.
Long series riannea
Faculty members of the depart
ment will give some of the talks,
but the lectures will not be limited
to the campus members. Speakers
from other cities will be brought
to Eugene.
Dr. Warren D. Smith, president
of the advisory council of the or
ganization expressed the hope of
securing Rabbi Jonah B. Wise, of
Portland, as one of the speakers.
The lectures will be open to the
general public. Professor Freder
ick S. Dunn is chairman of the com
mittee that will arrange for the
speakers.
DR. HODGE DESCRIBES
THREE SISTERS REGION
A description of the region of the
Three Sisters was given last night ,
by Dr. Edwin T. Hodge of the geo
logy department. The talk was
given for geology majors and chem
istry majors at the home of Dr.
Earl Packard. This is one of the
■series of monthly seminars given by
the geology department.
The talk was the result of six
weeks spent in the region of the
Three Sisters. Dr. Hodge discussed
the history of the peaks in relation
to each other. The North Sister j
and Broken Top are considered the |
older peaks.
The lecture was illustrated by
htereoptical slides made from pic
tures belonging to Edwin Cox of
the geology department. Cox took
these views on a trip to the region
last summer.
CHRISTIAN ENDEAVOR
WILL DISCUSS CRCED
Recently the famouB Dr. rosdiek
refused to subscribe to the West
minster Confession of Faith, which
ereed governs the Presbyterian
church, and a conference of univer
sity students, held in Michigan this
fall, declared that one of the worst
inadequacies of the church is this
misstated creed, and recommended
striking changes in it.
What these changes should be,
forms the basis for discussion at
the Christian Endeavor of Central
Presbyterian church, meeting next
Sunday night at 6:30. These meet
ings are for all who are interested
in this really sweeping restatement
of spiritual values.
CAMPUS HIGH SOPHOMORES
PRESENT ONE-ACT COMEDY
“Prairie Princess,” a one-act
comedy, was presented by the
sophomore class of the University
high school at the regular weekly
assembly held in the auditorium of
the campus high. The play was
written bv Wanda Leslie, who took
one of the leading roles. The set
ting and costumes were also worked
out by the members of the class.
B. O. T. C. BAND PRACTICES
ARE CALLED OFF THIS WEEK
The R. O. T. C. band will not
have any more rehearsals this term,
the purpose being to allow the stu
dents to devote the rest of their
time to the approaching examina
tions. Every bandsman is asked to
report to the R. O. T. C. the first
Tuesday in January, and all those
not reporting at that date will be
dropped from the band.
Geology Field Trip Made
In Usual Downpour
Exploring Crowd Takes Detour
On Springfield Expedition
Exploration as it goes in a co
educational institution is ably dem
onstrated by the freshman geology
course. The procedure is detailed.
First the professor posts the date
of the field trip, and sits back in
expectation of a heavy downpour.
On the stated day it rains. “Never
fails,” humorously remarks Dr.
Earl Packard.
The crowd of 50 or 60 appear
at the necessary time and are
herded in the direction of the
Springfield car. The said electric
passes the mob up—too many stu
dents for it to chaperone.
However the crowd gets started
in the general direction of Spring
field butte. And it almost gets
there, with no casualities. A
chicken fence is encountered. They
shall hot pass.
The leader orders a retreat for
the benefit ' of the slippered and
plush-coated co-ds. The retreat is
unforeseen. However, boulders
stop the sliding at an interval of
about every six feet. But the mud
died crowd cheerfully detours when
it reaches firm land again. And
the geology class reaches its destin
ation, and proceeds to work.
The next field trip is scheduled
for Saturday. And Dr. Packard ap
parently expects the same diffi
culties.
MONITOR PRINTS STORY
TAKEN FROM EMERALD
Eastern recognition of the work
of the University, and especially of
the work of Dr. B. C. Clark, pro
fessor of history, was brought to
light when the Christian Science
Monitor for November 28, reprinted
a story of University work.
“History Book Written by Uni
versity of Oregon Faculty Member
Was Adopted as a State Text,” is
the way the top deck of the head
line read. The book was Dr.
Clark’s “School History of Ore
gon.” The head of the history de
partment was assisted by two for
mer University students in history
in the assembling of the book.
This is an indication of how
Emerald stories are broadcast all
over the continent. The Monitor
gave about six column inches to the
story. The story was not printed
in the Portland papers.
“Somehow or other the eastern
papers seem to recognize the work
of the University more than our
■own Portland papers,” said Dr.
Clark, generalizing in a joking
way. Dr. Clark 'didn’t know the
story was printed in the Monitor
until a copy sent him by the pub
lishing company reached his desk
the other day.
MEMBER OF FACULTY
PUBLISHES ARTICLE
Rollien Dickerson, member of the
faculty of the University high
school, had an article printed in the
December issue of the Historical
Outlook. The article was entitled
“What Do Social Science Text
Books Contain?”
Professor Dickerson is instructor
of social science at the local campus
high school. “The article is an
analysis of thirty of the more
widely used text books in the so
cial sciences,” said Dr. R. C. dark,
head of the University history de
partment, in commenting on the an
alytical article. “It is very well
done too.”
“The texts include the field of
history, economics, civics, and the
social sciences in general,” he said.
