AWARDS COMMITTEE CHANGES ALBERT PRIZE : Silver Loving Cup Given In Place of Cash _ silver loving cup instead of aj .ash award of $25 is to constitute j hereafter the Albert prize. This, decision was reached recently by j the Awards committee of the . fac- j ulty after correspondence with! Joseph H. Albert of the First Na-j tional Bank of Salem, donor of the j trophy. This award has been made each year since 1920 to the senior who, during his college course, has made the greatest progress toward the ideal in character, service and wholesome influence. Under the rules governing the award the com mittee selects from among the mem bers of the senior class, three whose record appears the best in these re spects, and from those three the senior class makes the selection by ballot. Last year the $25 prize was awarded to Claude Robinson, who was president of the student body. The award committee also an nounced that the time remaining for turning in essays for the Mur ray Warner essay contest is very short. The period has been ex tended to May 10. There is better response to this competition this year than previously, with seven essays expected. There are three prizes for the best papers: first, $100; second, $6l5; and third $35. Little interest has been shown as yet in the Philo Sherman Bennett contest of $20 for the best essay on the principles of free govern ment. Essays will be accepted un-, til May 15.

Board of Regents Give Approval of Fee Plan: House Heads in Accord (Continued from page one) regents. This ,plan would make the con struction of the Student Union building possible in the next three years instead of at some vague fu ture date which the present student drives would make necessary. This building is recognized as a real need, and the first £500,000 of the money collected under the term fee plan would go towards this end the building of the basketball pavilion. The amount of money expended for this purpose, however, would not be so large that it would hinde the construction of other necessary j buildings. The payments under the proposed | amendment of $5.00 a term would | 1" credited on the Student Union j gift pledges, thus a $100 pledge - would be reduced to $85 at the end , of next year. While it is desirable to keep the fees of this Univer sity as low ns possible, even with this additional $5.00 a term, they | would still be lower than most uni- I versifies, and Oregon wouVl be en abled to li unch a definite campaign and maintain her athletic prestige 1'v providing the structures neces sary to its development. Saturday Classes Said To Relieve Congestion; Need for Change Cited (Continued from page one) afternoon in the large measure for ^freshman anJ sophemore classes. A possibility of free mornings might ilso overcome some of the student ivoidance of afternoon classes. Present Conditions Serious The present and immediately pros jeetive congestion in class rooms is io serious that any single relief neasure will still be inadequate. The committee hopes that this opening ip of Saturday morning to regular icheduling of classes will permit mch readjustment that the after ioon hours will be more available ilso, and thus give relief for more lian a single year. The committee ■ecognizes that its proposal will call ’or some readjustments of the cam >us life, and occasionally Work real lardship, but see no alternatives .vhich are at the same time possible, economical, and equally acceptable.

As research was an essential part of Dr. Torrey's work when he came to the University, he devel oped interest in experimental re search and gathered about him a group of the members of his own staff and graduate students and assistants. This group research centered about the general prob lem of differentiation, a problem connected most closely with the problem of cancer. As a result of this work, 15 or more publications on the investi gations have been printed in var ious scientific journals, and inter ested in. research was gjreatly stimulated. The unification of the medical school program was one of Dr. Torrey’s ambitions, and a seven year curriculum was devised and adopted by the faculties at Eu gene and at Portland. Dr. Torrey’s policy has been to encourage breadth of culture and research in Eugene, and at the same time to show their bearing on medicine as it is and will be.
