Trip to Moon Should Prove
Of Interest to Any One
Highlights of Proposed Country
Given Out by Astronomers
Any one who contemplates a trip
to the moon at some time in his life
should go to the astronomy class
for a map of the country, or at least
a look at one before starting out.
The class has progressed as far
as the Sea of Clouds and the Sea of
Showers, which really are not seas,
but were so named by astronomers
who thought they were. There are
several large craters, and on the
whole the region is very rough.
The craters Copernicus, Ptolemy,
Clavius, and Keplar may be seen.
Ptolemy is recognized as the one
v.-hich is a largo plain surrounded
by a nearly circular wall, of moon
material, about 150 miles in diam
eter. It is one of three rings in
close connection which stand on the
western shore of the Sea of Clouds.
Clavius has an area of over 15,000
square miles, and the walls around
it rise from 15,000 to 17,000 feet
above the level of the floor. It has
five smaller craters within the
large one.
While on the moon, look in the di
rection of Orion and see Rigel, the
second brightest star in that con
stellation. It is 20 times the sun’s
diameter, and has a temperature of
11.000 degrees centigrade.
If you have the observing eye of
a Soph, you will see a type of star
calld “O.” They are 50 times more
massive than the sun and several
hnudred times as bright. They are
at a distance of about 3,000 light
years, and are thought to be the
earliest stars developed.
That group to the south which
looks like clouds of stars are really
separate stars, as you will note if
you observe them through the large
telescope. They are called Magel
lanic clouds, and some of them are
50.000 times as bright as the sun
and approximately a billion miles
in diameter.
SORORITY WOMEN HAVE
HIGHEST GRADE MARAS
Fraternity Men Lowest in
Standing Fall Term
- --
Sorority women lead all other un
dergraduate students in scholarship,
according to the recent grade aver
ages compiled by Carlton E. Spen
cer, registrar. While sorority wo
men have a rate higher than non
sorority women, this does not apply
to the fraternity men who are rated
somewhat lower than the non
fraternity men.
The rating of students scholas
tically at the University of Oregon,
is based upon two considerations:
First, the quantity of work passed
by the student; second, the quality
of work completed. However, qual
ity is worth five times as much as
quantity. For example, one hour
' of the highest grade gives the stu
I dent five points while one hour of
the lowest grade gives him only one
point. If the student fails in a
subject ho is given no credit, the
same as if he had not attempted
the course at all.
An average grade for a student
would be between a three and a
four with fifteen hours passed. A
student doing this would receive a
rating of 37.5.
In following this theory, the
average rate for all undergraduate
students during the fall term of the
present school year was 37.54.
The following are the average
rates for the fall term:
All students .37.54
Women . 41.43
Men .34.06
Fraternity men .33.33
Non-fraternity men .34.24
Sorority women .43.01
Non-sorority women .39.25

DEPARTMENT OF MUSIC
TO GIVE RADIO CONCERT
A program to be broadcasted
from station KGW of the Morning
Oregonian under the auspices of the
extension division is to be made up
of selections by members of the
school of music of the University.
This program is in addition to the
regular Friday night broadcasting
period and will take place on Tues
day evening, March 24.
Alfred Powers, assistant in the
extension division and in charge of
the radio department, has arranged
the following program:
Bex Underwood, violin.
Mme. Rose McGrew, soloist.
Mrs. Jane Thacher, pianist.
Louis,Artau, pianist.
The broadcasting from the station
is in charge of Richard V. Haller
and as yet he has made no announce
ment of the length of the program.
The regular Friday night program
is in charge of the Portland cen
ter and they have not yet made
known its character.
CARD INDEX IS USED IN
ENGLISH DEPARTMENT
An innovation in the English de
partment is a card index system
for filing gems of literature, wit
and humor which can be readily
adapted to speaking purposes. Os
car A. Brown, extemporaneous
speaking instructor, who introduced
the idea here, believes the handy
little file a great boon to the stu
dent as well as to the inveterate
speaker.
“Every man is given a card in
dex in which he will file Biblical
quotations, excripts from Shake
speare, apt adages, and other refer
ences, which he can retain through
out life for all occasions when a
speech is needed. While they are
yet in school, the stulents will find
their indexes valuable for ‘dressing
up’ their class and debate speech
es,” Mr. Brown said.
The University of Michigan uses
this method very successfully in the
school of law from which Mr.
Brown graduated in June, ’24.
