Day Editor This Issue Pets' Laun Alice Kraeft Assistant Night Editor This Issue Web Jones Assistant .date Meredith Entered aa second etaee matter at the pest office at Eugene, Oregon, under act at Osagrsss at March S, 1879. For a Broader Vision ^^GAIN, in the second drive for funds for the Student Union, the quota set was oversubscribed. Last year the surplus pledged was slightly over $19,000. on $200,000. This year it was approximately $4,000 more than the $64,000 figure set for a goal. Randall Jones, president of the Associated Students, in commenting on the results obtained by the committee, said, and truly, “It was a hard job requiring a great sacrifice in time and energy, but ably done.” Watching the work this year makes one pause to consider. No one will deny that campus enthusiasm was not nearly as in tense as in the first drive. It would not be illogical to expect a similar decrease next year. In addition there will be a con siderable shrinkage in the actual amount finally collected from the pledges, due to lost addresses and bad faith. The campus drive method has been successful—in theoretical figures. Perhaps there is a better way. At O. A. C. and at the University of Washington, rather than use the voluntary gift, a fee is added to the regular term payments made into the busi ness office. If this system were used at Oregon $60 could be realized from each student if he contributed but $5 per term for four years. Tins amount compounded for six years will make approximately $98, so that at the end of ten years from a student’s entrance, the University will have realized nearly $100. Considering the shrinkage of the gift pledge method, this will really come much nearer to equaling the quota desired. To effect such a change would necessitate an amendment to the constitution of the student body at the coming election on May 10. No student can really feel that he does not owe something in the way of money to the University which has admitted and developed him. The question lies solely in adopt ing Jthe most satisfactory method. The term payment system would appear much more simple and sure from the standpoint of collection. The student will be obliged to pay but $60 instead of $100. He will have ful filled his obligation Upon leaving the institution and will not have the pledge “hanging over his head” for the next few years. The term payment method should be perpetual, and, after completion of the Student Union building, the income should be used for other suitable purposes, such as for the present much-needed basketball pavilion and football bleachers. The Emerald advocates this plan for consideration by the students before the coming election, favoring the plan from the standpoint of practicability and the broader vision contained in extending the benefits to more than one particular objective. The Communictftion columns will be open for a free discussion of the points involved, and letters will be welcomed on the subject. “Chaperone Your Campfires” THE weather continues to improve and the picnic and bonfire season comes on apace, President Calvin Coolidge has seen fit to proclaim American Forest Week, April 27-Ma^ 3, to “bring to the attention of all our people the danger that comes from the neglect of our forests.” We, especially, of the University of Oregon, in the heart of the great fir district west of the Cascades, are proud of our forests. Are they not the source of the prosperity of this NorJJiwest, where timber is the biggest and best crop! (And are they not the inspiration of our poets, campus and other wise 4) This prosperity can best be fostered by caring for this great national resource. The ways in which this c&n be done are , amazingly simple. The United States Forest Service says it: “A match may be down but not out. You put it out.” ‘ ‘ Chaperone your own campfires. ’ ’ “NOW is the time for all good men to come to the aid of the forests.” We are forcefully reminded that the forest payroll pays nearly two-thirds of the Northwest’s wages. And wages, as well as scenery are important to those who are training them selves at the University of Oregon for finer living and truer citizenship. R.B.T.C. UNIT ORDERS SIGHTS FOU FIELD GUN Advanced Classes to Have Artillery Practice Telescopic and quadrant sights for the .37 millimetre infantry field gun, which will be used by the R. O. T. C. department for ad vanced instruction in artillery work this term, are being sent to the Benecia arsenal, Benecia, Califor nia, for correction and repair, ac cording to Sergeant T. R. Powers, of the R. O. T. C. commissary de partment. The telescopic sights are used in aiming direct, or “lane,” artillery fire, at visible objects. These sights are now based on a metric scale which was generally used on American guns during the late war. This scale will be changed to the standard American yard scale, now coming into use again. The quad rant sight, which is used in the calculation of arc of fire, etc., in indirect fire at unseen objects, will be put in condition for use by the local unit. The advanced classes in R. O. T. C. work are being instructed in fire control using machine guns, and later in the term will bq given instruction with the .37 mil. gun and the Stokes mortar gun. The .37 field gun is one of the most effective of the smaller artillery pieces used in the World War. It can be transported with great fa cility, and fires a 1-pound shot over a considerable range. The artili lory instruction given to junior classes in R. O. T. C., is in charge of Captain Frank L. Culin. COMMITTEES NAMED FOR Y1C.II. COUNCIL Committees which will assist in arranging for the Y.
