WOMEN TO BEGIN TRACK PRACTICE Field Day Will Be Handled On Modified Basis SCORING PLAN CHANGED Winning Class to Receive Hayward Track Cup Practice for tracks preparatory to the finals on Field day, is sched uled to begin at once according to Miss Lillian Stupp, coach. The sport is being conducted on a dif ferent basis this spring with the idea of getting as many girls into the competition as possible rather than allowing a few to compete for first, second and third places. “By adopting this new system we hope to do away with any undue strain on the girls. The system places emphasis on real sportsman ship and will do away with the wrong kind of competition,” an nounced Miss Stupp. The Randolph-Macon college score plan is the new one to be tried out this season. It is a progressive scoring plan by which the individ ual receives credit for actual ac complishment instead of making first place. There is a minimum for which points will; be given, thus forming the basis for some kind of standard in the scoring sys tem. For example, an individual must attain a certain fixed degree of excellence in an event to receive any credit. This eliminates those candidates below this standard ef ficiency and gives an opportunity for some selection. Class teams will be chosen after Field day when the finals of the regular track teams will take place. The number permitted on these reg ular teams is unlimited, so a large number of girls have the chance to try out for them. From this ma terial the class teams will be se lected; they will consist of the six highest point winners on each team. The class having the highest per centage recorded on the score sheet will be declared winner. This scor ing is found by adding the total number of points made by a team and dividing the sum by the num ber of participants. Anyone wishing to qualify for the meet must work in 12 practices. Miss Stupp advises the girls to come out at once and start working off their required practices. One hun dred points will be awarded any girl making a class tenm. More girls are wanted as material for the track teams, and anyone interested are urged to see Miss Stupp ot |La Verne Spitzenberger, head of the sport, at once. The throe highest point winners will be announced on Field day, at which tiino the Hayward track cup will be awarded the winning class. Candidates may choose three events, but these must be in two classes. Events are classified as follows: Track events (running) — 25 yard dash, 50 yard dash and 75 yard dash, G5 yard hurdles (six hurdles used), class relay; field events (jumping and throwing) — running high, running broad, hop stop-and-jump, (throwing) baseball, and basketball throw for distance, discus and javelin throwing. Classes in track are held Tues day, Thursday and Friday at 4 o ’clock. Girls going out for track events are requested to report at any of these classes to work off their prac tice hours. Influence of Masters Shown in Decorative Design Exhibition (Continued from pacie one) ‘ first groat influences for modern ! design in our country. His study ! was very thorough, covering a wide ! range of travel, and he brought, the i results of a very full experience to his students. His remarkable book on “Composition” together with i Batchelder’s “Theory and Practice of Design” have proved most sig nificant contributions to the study of art in American schools. Profes sor Dow held classes in Portland a few years ago. Among his stu dents was Miss Muirden whose work is exhibited. Miss Muirden is teaiher of Art in the high school of commerce in Portland. While Professor Dow put emphasis on the study of design principles hr mani fested in the art of the Japanese whose work has shown a high de- ! gree of perfection for many genera-i tions, Mr. Johonnet and Mr. Don aldson are exponents of the rela tion of color to design. Their teaching is shown in the | work of Miss Dorothy Fritchard ; and Miss Blanche White, former students of the University. They, have an Arts and Crafts shop in ' Portland which is doing conspicu ously good work in iuterior decor lation problems. Mr. Ensign is particularly inter ested in the richness of effect to be gained by simple black and j white. He is at present the Dean of the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. All of these matters in the art of design state the problem differ ently but agree in essentials, and students will have an opportunity to- make comparative study by means of the wealth of examples that are offered for their examina tion. The exhibit includes a dis play of open pages from “Design Magazine,” a monthly periodical which devotes itself to the cause of this phase of art and presents the newest products of design class es throughout the schools of our country. Orators Will Speak for $5,000 in Prize Money on Subject of Constitution (Continued from page one) written form to determine the re gional winners and at the same time to avoid putting participants to unnecessary traveling expendi tures. Two sots of judges will pass uji on the orations in the regional contests. One set of three will judge the manuscripts themselves and the other will judge the de livery by the seven speakers from each region. The low-point-total system of judging will be used throughout. Under this system, each judge rates every contestant. Prizes Never Exceeded A similar contest was conducted last year by a different organiza tion in the grade and high schools of the nation. The subjects were the same, but college students did not participate. No bigger contest has been of fered to college speakers from a standpoint of amount of prizes of fered, Coach Eosson said yester day. Benoit McCroskey, of Salem, freshman in pre-law, will represent the University in the State Peace Oratorical Contest, at Pacific uni versity, Forest Grove, Friday night. Two prizes are offered for the winning speeches, which must deal with some phase of peace, the first, of $75, and the second of $50. Six schools, besides Oregon, wtffl be represented. FORMES LETTERMEN PLAN PORTLAND BUFFET DINNER A buffet dinner and smoker, with lively entertainment features, will be given by the recently form ed Portland Alumni association of former varsity athletes of the Uni versity of Oregon, at the Univer sity club, Wednesday night, at 6 o’clock. All former lettermen and athletic managers of the Univer sity of Oregon are urged to attend. Dean H. Hayes is chairman of the entertainment committee, and has arranged a snappy program. Dr. Fred W. Ziegler is president and Edgar W. Smith is secretary-treas urer of the organization. PLANS ARE FORMULATED FOR SEABECK CONFERENCE Word was received yesterday at the Y. W. bungalow that the North west Student conference, held an nually at Seabeck, Washington, will take place from June 23 to July 3. university and college Young Wo This conference includes all the men’s Christian associations of the .Northwest and is for the purpose of discussing common problems and r procuring new ideas. Helen An drews is in charge of the work on the campus. Announcement of her plans will be made at a later date. ETCHINS PRESS FUND STARTED BY J. H. NASH $75 Donated to University By Famous Printer A gift of $75 toward the purchase of an etching press was made to the University by John Henry Nash of San Francisco, whose art in print ing is known internationally. His interest was attracted by the work of Richard Carruthers, major in ar chitecture, during the Oregon News paper conference, March 12 to 15, at which time the famous craftsman addressed the conference on the art of printing. The gift was made during his recent stay in Eugene on his return to the south from Port land. Mr. Carruthers, handicapped by the lack of an adequate press, has been experimenting with etchings on a hand-made affair, built from a second-hand photographer’s bur nisher, which has broken down sev eral times under the severe pres sure necessary in taking impres sions. Other students are taking up the work and it is expected that the addition of a press will stimu late interest in this little known but highly fascinating branch of the graphic arts. Mr. Nash also presented the school of journalism and the university press with a number of valuable 'specimens of his work, among which are samples of stationery and an nouncements, his editions of “The Napa Winery” by Robert Louis Stevenson, “The Heathen Chinee” by Bret Harte, “The Ideal Book” by T. J. Cobden Sanderson and sev eral Christmas greetings produced in his shop for himself and friends. Many of Mr. Nash’s works are being sought by collectors in this country and abroad at a high premium. One of the finest pieces in the collection presented to the school of journalism is a descriptive booklet, 14 by 21 inches, of the Monastery of the Visitation of the Blessed Virgin Mary, to be erected in the Piedmont hills, California. The booklet is illustrated with a number of full-page color reproduc tions and contains double-page maps.

Cizek's Method Discussed By Professor of Art System Declared One to Inspire Child’s Individualism “Cizek certainly has the right idea,” declared Mr. N. B. Zane, professor in the school of fine arts. “I only wish that we might be able to use his method here. But it is impossible. Our archi tecture department comes the near est to it. But we are paid by the tax payers and they demand that we produce something of commer cial value. Besides people send their children here for four years and expect us to make out of them people who will be '.commercially successful.” Mr. Zane, continuing, pointed out that under Cizek the student is inspired to personal creations and that under the American sys tem of teaching the alement of im mitation is more dominant. Cizek does not consider time, he explained. He takes no notice of it and thinks merely of the art and its expression and not of how well his students will develop it in a certain length of time. Cizek teaches his students the happiness of life and its beauty. There is little doubt that the stu dent who studies under Cizek for four years gets more out of life than the student who studies at a modern American university for the same length of time, was his idea. Mr. Virgil O. Hafen had the same ideas as Mr. Zane and added that it was his thought that the sur rounding and the background that the children who work under the guidance of Cizek have at their command, is a great help to them, and that if Cizek were to start a school in some modern American community it is doubtful if he iiii'i would have the same results. The greatest factor in the system of Cizek, according to Mr. Hafen is that he does not teach his pupils by the “rule of thumb,” but allows them to work out through experi ence the rules which govern art. In this way he merely suggests and encourages while his pupils proceed to work out individualism to a de gree that students who are taught by rules cannot usually attain.
