CORPS TO ORGANIZE
Plans to Be Discussed in
Meeting Wednesday

ing corps which was organized on
the campus last spring by the de
partment of physical education, will
0 hold a meeting at 5:00 p. m. Wed

gymnasium. The local corps is com
posed of several members of the
faculty of the physical education
department and of the men who
passed the Bed Cross life saving
test held on the campus last year.
The purpose of the meeting is to
plan for an examination to be held
within a month for new men who

members will coach the young as- !
pirants in the different life saver’s
duties on which they will be exam

with a grade of 90 per cent will be
eligible to become examiners.
The purpose of the local life sav
ing corps is to create interest in
life saving so that this group may
become the largest on the ■'Pacific
coast, according to Budolph Fahl,
swimming coach. There are about
twenty members of the corps on the
campus now and he urges them all
to be out to the meeting Wednes
day so that full plans may be made
for coaching those who wish to try
out in the Bed Cross life saving
test.
The men who passed the test last
year are: L. Stone, B. Bartlett, L.
Hoblitt, B. Lee, D. Park, E. Calef,
A. Tarlow, Beed Jagger, H. Sam
uels, C. Kilgore, J. Smith, P. Max
well and H. Heerdt. Several other
members of the corps had passed
the test previous to last spring.
BRYAN HENDON PASSES
ORAL EXAMINATIONS
Bryan Hendon, graduate student
in geology, hais successfully passed
his oral examinations for his mas
ter’s degree. His thesis is in the
hands of the examining committee
and is being read. Until the thesis
is passed upon he will not be offi
cially recommended for the degree.
His thesis, according to Dr. Earl
Packard of the geology department,
is a very important contribution to
science. It includes the description
of 30 new species of fossils. These
specimens have never before been
described.
Hendon did mueh of his course
work at Cornell University before
coming to the University of Oregon.
He served last year as graduate as
sistant in the geology department
of the University and worked to
ward his degree. In order to com
plete his preparation for his degree
he was assigned a research problem.
Hendon studied the geologic section
along the Umpqua river, near Glide,
Oregon, and found new species of
clams and fossils.
A considerable number of fossils
had been discovered previously in
this region and the fact came to the
attention of California scientists.
Hendon went to the University of
California last summer and took
with him these fossils. In the lot
he found 30 species which had not
been described.
After his oral examination, Hen
don left for California to complete
arrangements before sailing to a for
eign country to do work in petrol-,
eum geology.
Senior Ball Saturday
Night is Gay Affair
With Lavish Decorations
(Continued from page one)
There are so many details one
might mention: the costumed ser
vants, the programs, the medal
lions, with the double eagle upon
them, the charming conventional;
silver trees, the interesting and i
satisfying food. However, by at-!
tempting to describe these things,
part of the charm might be taken
from them.
"Whether or not the Russian tone
was carried out authentically and '
In detail, we hardly know and care ;
less. What really platters is that \
the effect as a whole was convinc- i
ing, and, of even greater import- ■
ance, was beautiful and satisfying. I
It is the kind of a ball one can
imagine Bakst designing and exe
cuting.
The many harmonious details and I
nuances of the affair show that
Bohlman had completely visualized
his effect before attempting it, or
otherwise we do not see how he
could have possibly found his way
through the maze of detail which
culminated in the striking and j
unique whole. Let us congratulate
him on the most pleasing and beau-,
tiful ball the University has ever
enjoyed.
MONITOR TO CONTAIN
STUDENTS’ ARTICLES
The January number of the Ex
tension Division Monitor will be
known as the student’s issue, ac
cording to Mozelle Hair, editor.
Copy for the number is nearly all
written and copyread, and it will
go to press some time the latter
part of the week.
“The student’s issue is the num
ber in which the work of the stu
dents of the extension division is
published,” said Miss Hair. “This
not only includes the correspond
ence students, but also those en
rolled at the Portland center.”

The Class Endowment
oAtid How It Can Be Done Through Life Insurance
THE JOHN HANCOCK MUTUAL LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY
worked out this problem for the 1923 graduating class of the Massachusetts
Institute of Technology, and is ready to do it for others.
Many graduating classes, wishing to benefit their Alma Mater have turned
to the insurance idea since it allows the participation of a large number of
students.
This plan provides for the payment of a certain specified sum to the Univer
sity at the end of 20 or 25 years, the members of the graduating class paying a
nominal sum each year to create an endowment. In case of the death of a
graduate before the endowment matures his full share is paid into the fiind.

line and become a continuing contributor to the future welfare of his Alma
Mater. It has been successfully carried through in a number of cases, and it
