menting on the splendid interest in
forensic work: “There has been an
unusual interest in these tryouts,
there being more men entering this
last contest than in any oratorical
tryout .in reeent years.”
Meet to Be May 8

ton’s representative. The year be
fore. 102.1, Paul Patterson of Ore
gon, won the same contest in Eu

oration “The Open Mind” won sec
ond place in the contest last year.
The contest to be held at O. A.
C. on May 8, is a new one, being
held for the first time this year
as a result of the coast colleges at
the annual meeting at Stanford
university deciding to hold an addi
tional forensic event to the extem
pore speaking event held during the
fall term. Freshmen are prohibited
from entering this coast contest.
Fifty dollars is the prize for the

INDUSTRY PROBLEMS
President of Reed Long
Associated With 4 L’s
“The Use of Group Discussion in
Industrial Management” will be
discussed by Norman F. Coleman,
president of Reed college, in Port
land, in the address he will de
liver here at this week’s assembly.
Mr. Coleman has had considerable
experience in dealing with indus
trial problems. During the war he
became interested in assisting to
stabilize conditions in logging
camps and lumber mills in order
that an industry so important to
the prosecution of the war might
not be disorganized by labor trou
bles.
As a result of that work he was
made president of the Loyal Leg
ion of Loggers and Lumbermen,
and has continued as president
since. Hb is better known in that
capacity among the working men in
the industry than as a college pro
fessor and president.
Mr. Coleman was sent as a spe
cial lecturer for the A. E. F. in
France in 1919.
His versatility and (interest in
public affairs is further attested by
the fact that he has served two
or three terms as president of the
Oregon Social. Hygiene society, and
is much interested in problems of
hygiene and morality.
Mr. Coleman’s major work at the
University of Toronto, where he
and his wife were classmates of
Dean Colin V. Dvment, was in zoo
logy in which he received honors.
DAVID HUSTED FREED
IN MOOT COURT TRIAL
This is not a regular, dyed-in-tho
wool crime story and no University
student was actually tried for any
offense, but the tale we would re
late is only that of a moot court
session. *
If it had been n regular court
proceeding the prosecuting attorney
would probably not have forgotten
to establish the venue of the al
leged crime and the attorney for
the defense would probably not
have asked the jurors “why” they
did not gamble or bet on horse
races.
Both of those oversights have
been made by better known law
yers than .Tames Boss, state’s at
torney and Howard MeOlnflin, de
fense council, said Attorney Fred
E. Smith, who sat on the bench.
David Hasted was the alleged
“offender.” Setting up and con
ducting a lottery at the Oregon-O.
A. C. basketball game was the
charge. The defendant was freed by
the jury.
Three jurors were all that could
be rounded up, so the lawyers
"agreed” that this would be suf
ficient to try the case.
Witnesses were called and ex
amined. Edward Kellev testified
that he had won the “alleged lot
tery,” and took the chance to re
gain losses of former risks. Bert
Gooding and Carl Skoog both ad
mitted connection with the dealing
and testified to former dealings of
this nature.
The defense asked for a directed
verdict on the ground that the state
had not proved a lottery but a pool.
But the judge went the lawyers one
better and directed the jury to re
turn a verdict of not guilty on the
ground that nobody had proved
where the crime was supposed to
have taken place.

DAUGHTER OF REGENT
RECEIVES MANY HONORS
Georgianna Gerlinger, daughter
of Mrs. G. T. Gerlinger of the Uni
versity board of regents, and a stu
dent on the campus from 1921 to
1924 is finishing her studies in the
University of California. Last
week she was elected to Mortar
Board, woman’s national honorary
society.
She has also been elected to
Torch and Shield, a local secret so
ciety of the University of Cali
fornia which is composed of a small
group of the outstanding girls of
the campus.
i Miss Gerlinger is chairman of
| the Sponsor committee of the Wo
I man’s League. This committee
j meets all the freshmen women en
tering the University of California,
which Dean Esterly believes will
be about loOO next year, sees that
they are housed according to the
University regulations, introduces
them informally in a social way,
and helps them register. She is al
so secretary to the Dean of Women
of the University of California.
Miss Gerlinger went to the Uni
versity of California last fall after
completing three years of work on
the campus in the English depart
ment. In 1924 she helped Dean
Eric W. Allen of the .-journalism de
partment, edit the Summer Session
Californian. While on the campus
she was a member of Theta Sigma
Phi.
TRACK BEING DAMAGED
BY STUDENT CYCLISTS
Serious damage is being done to
the cinder track on Hayward field
by students who persist in riding
bicycles on the expensive track.
The damage done by riding on it
with wheels compels the going
over of the whole track by work
men. The packing down of the
cinders injures the track and makes
much more work necessary upon it.
The oval on Hayward fis con
sidered by experts to be practically
the best cinder track on the coast.
Tt must be taken care of all the
time. The crew of workmen are
ordered to keep bicycles off the
oval but often men ride on it when
they are not around. Henceforth all
wheels will be thrown off the track
at the loss of the owner.
SCHEDULE IS CHANGED
FOR WOMEN’S FENCING
Women’s fencing schedule has
been changed by Wm, C. Davidson,
instructor, owing to the fact that
there are not as many women tak
ing fencing this term as last. Per
sons desiring to come at other
hours than those given are asked
to arrange to do so by leaving their
names and time of attendance with
Miss Florence Alden, head of wo
men ’s physical education.
Mondays and Wednesdays at 4
p. m. and Tuesdays and Fridays at
4 and 5 p. m. are the hours sched
uled by Mr. Davidson. Each class
is one hour in length.

was burned over in spite of a bat
tle against the subsequent fire
which cost $200,000.
The problem, the forestry super
intendent said, is not at all hope
less. The trees in Hendricks park
are virtually all the result of a sec
ond planting, and some of our
merchantable trees that are now
being cut into 12-12 inch timbers
are only 40 or 50 years old.
“Western Oregon i3 one of the best
tree growing areas in the world,
and there is no reason why Oregon
cannot continue as a lumber pro-,
ducing state,” he declared.
One way of preserving the tim
ber would be a tax reform. A form
of yield tax might well be adopted,
in the superintendent’s opinion.
The necessity of contact between
newspapermen and the various
leaders tn thought and industry
was stressed by Mr. Macduff.
“Newspapermen are necessarily
interpreters. Leaders of thought
ordinarily do not “speak English”
—they must be interpreted, and
newspapermen must interpret their
technical language so the reader
can understand them, * therefore,
the reporter must have an acquain
tance with the language of the spec
ialist and some personal interest in
the specialty itself,” he told. the
students.

The Greatest Historian
Of Them All
Homer wove history into his songs. The Pharaohs carved
it in stone. Julius Caesar painstakingly penned it on
papyrus.
Today, history is written and given to you simultaneously
with its occurence. Every day, the important events of
the world are summed up fully and comprehensively in
your newspaper. You are able to keep abreast of history
in its making.
And not the least important phase of modern history lies
in the realm of industrial progress. You find this chron
icled in the advertisements.
Advertising is a priceless boon to those who use it prop
erly. It keeps their information up-to-date on the great
variety of things that make life what it is today. It tells
them of the thousand and one things they need in order to
live profitable, happy and useful lives.
The consistent advertiser pays money to tell you about
his wares. He knows they are good—he backs them with
his money because he is confident that they will satisfy.
For only merchandise that is consistently good can be con
sistently advertised.
KEEP UP WITH HISTORY—IT PAYS
