The drama “Hassan” occupied a great part of the week and, aside from the usual number of picnics, a few rather informal affairs com prise the doings in the Tealm of so ciety for this week. Junior week end, which comes in a few days, will be a busy time for all. It is to be our play-time,—free from the responsibility of guests. After this week, events will simmer down in number and before we realize it the term will draw to an end. * * » Perhaps the most formal event of the week was the dance for which members of Kappa Alpha Theta were hostesses at their house on South Alder street, Saturday evening. The rooms were most effective with the spring flowers, potted plants and ferns. Patrons and patronesses were Mrs. F. N. Boyer, Dean and Mrs. Colin Dyment, Mrs. W. F. Jewett, Mr. and Mrs. Wilson Jewett, Mr. and Mrs. Karl Onthank and Mrs. Virginia Judy Esterly. * * * Bright blue lights on the porch of the Bachelordon house cast a lovely glow over the Tooms where they held an informal dance on Sat urday evening. Dark blue cloth enclosed the porch where greens were used in profusion. Bill Mc Bride’s orchestra furnished the mu sic. Prof, and Mrs. Frederick S. Dunn and Dr. and Mrs. Miller were pa trons and patronesses. • # » Very informal was the dance for which the underclassmen of Delta Delta Delta were hostess on Saturday at their chapter house. Spring flowers formed the decora tions. Chaperoning the affair were Mrs. B. Fitzsimmons, Mrs. Virginia Judy Esterly and Mrs. D. J. McKinnon. * * « On Tuesday, at dinner at the Tau Nu house, Miss Alice Ehreneich of Albany, senior in the department of business administration, announced her engagement to J. W. Cummings of Corvallis, instructor in the Ore gon Agricultural school of com merce and a member of Beta Alpha Psi, and Acacia. Miss Ehrenreich is a member of Tau Nu sorority. She has been prominent in athletics while in the University. » * * The Woman’s building was the scene of Psi Kappa’s formal, Satur day evening. Huge bouquets of rhodedendrums decorated the ball room. Delbert Faust entertained the dancers with an Indian dance. Mr. and Mrs. Carlton Spencer, Dr. and Mrs. William Dale and Mrs. Virginia Judy Esterly were patrons and patronesses. * * * The Alpha Gamma Delta house was the scene of an attractive din ner Monday evening when the en gagement of Miss Merle OliveT to Ralph Gibbs was announced. In the center of the table was a tiny doll-size stucco cottage represent ing the future home of the bride to-be. A toy automobile was stand ing beside a miniature garage and bore the ring and cards which told ; the news as it was sent around the table. j Miss Oliver, whose home is in Hol lywood, California, is a senior in the department of written English, j She is well known on the campus, being a member of Alpha Gamma Delta, Tre Nu and Eutaxian Liter ary society. She was a junior in t mer University student and is now actively engaged in archeetural work in Eugene. * * * Miss Lucinda Dell, of Athena, was married to Armonde DeMer ritt, of Marshfield, Saturday at the Unitarian church. Immediately af ter the ceremony the couple left foT Marshfield, where they will make their home. Both of the young people were very prominent on the campus, Mrs. DeMerritt being a member of Gam ma Phi Beta and Kwama, honor ary society. She was a junior in the department of sociology. Mr. DeMerritt is affiliated with Chi Psi and was a major in the law school. • • • The Alpha Xi Delta house was very cleverly decorated for their informal dance Saturday evening which was given in honor of a num ber of rush guests whom they en tertained at their house over the week-end. One room was arranged as a tea parlor, another represented the ath letic side of college life, with all the golf clubs, tennis rackets and another was unique with the play ing cards, large and small all over the walls and ceiling. Mrs. Joe i Ellis sang during the evening. Mrs. Mildred Gif fen and Mr. and Mrs. Joe Ellis were chaperones for the dance. FROSH TRACKMEN WIN FROM FRANKLIN RICH Vic Wetzel of Freshmen Scores Most Points Hayward field became a series of puddles last Saturday afternoon when the Oregon freshmen track team battled in a light rain for a 72 to 45 point victory over the Franklin high school track squad. The good showing of several Franklin track men accounted for the score which they made. The meet was close, in spite of the final score, and it was only near the end that the Oregon babes were able to pile up enough points to be reason ably sure of winning. The wet track and the soggy pits slowed up the races considerably and lowered the distances of the jumps. Renfro, of the Franklin team, was the visitors star. He romped 100 and the 220-yard dash for 10 points and second point honors of the meet. His time of 22:6 for the furlong was exceptionally fast on the slow wet track. Vic Wetzel was high point man of the meet with firsts in three events, javelin, shot and discus, which netted the Freshmen a total of 15 points. Wetzel was going strong last Saturday and heaved the shot 46 feet. His javelin throw of 172 feet ana one inch was good for a beginner. Kelly, frosh miler, won his event easily. Pearson garnered a first in the 440. Guttridge won the low hurdles; Overstreet the half mile, and Soderstrom the broad jump. The summary: 100 yard dash—Renfro, Franklin, first; Allen, Oregon, second; Kuy kendall, Oregon, third. Time, 10:3. Mile run—Kelly, Oregon, first; Sisson, Franklin, second; Jamison, Oregon, third.

JERRY CRARY SERVES AS EXTRA TOR MOVIES From aluminum to moving pic tures, Jerry Crary has found his way in the Eastern Oregon coun try near Wallowa lake. Jerry, cir culation manager of the Emerald, until this term, has been selling aluminum in that district and at the same time the moving picture, “Winds of Chance,” is being filmed there, so Jerry has worked as an extra. Morris Bocock, it is rumored, who is in the same territory, has also been given a chance to show his ability before the camera. Y. M. C. A.

Colleges Agree on Three Points; Concessions Made By Agricultural School (Continued from page one) the board to restrain its alleged policy of duplicating courses defin itely assigned to the University in several fields of liberal arts and in the schools of education and jour nalism. The agricultural college, it was alleged, under authority to grant service courses, has expanded and is expanding them in such a way as to build up what is tending to become a second state university, forty miles from the University of Oregon. Counter Attack Made The general purport of the reply of the agricultural college was, that such duplication was necessary to the proper education of its majors in vocational branches. A counter attack was launched against the University on the ground that the University was less economically conducted than the Corvallis insti tution, on the basis of “costs for instruction by the clock hour” in the two institutions. Lower “clock hour” costs were listed in English, history, journalism, political sci ence, education, physical education, home economics, music, economics, and business, n reply to this the University replied that “both in stitutions are actually run on an ex tremely economical basis compared with institutions in (t>ther states, but that “figures from the impar tial United States Bureau of Edu cation, report for 1922-23, show I CLASSIFIED ADS I BOOM AND BOABD for summer school students. Phone 1666-J. Call at 973 Hilyard. 19,20,21,22,23,26 that in that year, the one used by O. A. C. as a basis of its claim, the total state cost per student at the University was $320.84, and at the Oregon Agricultural college, $335.66, and the tax cost per stu dent, $259 at the University and $264 at the college. Becoming “Second University” The University in its brief as serted the following points: (1) That the Oregon Agricultural col lege both by offering courses of an advanced or semi-graduate charac ter in fundamental subjects and by practically organizing a college of basic arts under a dean, and by es tablishing non-technical majors therein, has taken the most im portant steps toward becoming a second state university in Oregon, a step involving much duplication in courses established for many years at the University of Oregon. (2) That in the field of business administration the Oregon Agricul tural college not only trains hun dreds of students in the basic courses of which it has a monopoly but also duplicates all the work in higher commerce of a professional character assigned to the Univer sity by the settlement of 1913-14. (3) That as regards education, the Agricultural college has re cently included a considerable ar ray of courses of value chiefly to non-vocational teachers and to edu cational administration. This dupli cation, noticeable in the regular session, is particularly flagrant in the work of the summer school and in the fields of physical training and art. Understanding Held Ignored (4) That the understanding with the board of higher curricula in re gard to the scope and limitations of the department of industrial jour nalism at the Oregon Agricultural college has not been lived up to. (5) That the limits assigned to the school of music at the Oregon Agricultural college by the settle ment of 1913-14 have been greatly expanded without any action of the board of higher curricula. Specific requests to the board in volving the correction of the con ditions set forth were made in the University brief. The Oregon Agricultural college, in its brief, denied deviation from the rulings of the board and con tended that the University was seeking, in asking the elimination of duplicated courses, “completely to demolish and establish on a grade below any land-grant college in America an institution that has been built in comformity with a policy of eliminating all unneces sary duplications of courses as laid SEE OUR RUGS, FLOOR LAMPS AND DAVENPORTS Johnson Furniture Company 649 Wllamette Street Phone 1188 down by the board.” In its brief the college asked that the undergraduate work in com merce be eliminated from the Uni versity and the graduate work, ex cept in the field of agricultural economics, including marketing and rural sociology, be eliminated from the college. That the board examine carefully the courses in household arts of fered at the University “with a view to securing greater precision and definiteness in meeting the cul tural needs of the women students of that institution.” That the school of music at the Universiy be placed on a self-sup poring basis. That the courses now given in industrial journalism at the col lege be continued. That graduate work in physical education be recognized as belong ing exclusively to the University, and undergraduate work be devel oped on an equal basis. Courses Contended For That the new courses requested of the board of higher curricula in brief submitted March 21, 1925, and protested by the University, be approved. The courses listed by name are constitutional history of MISS SWEET who is returning to China has a few Chinese Tapes tries and works of art she is willing to sell. Should be seen to be appreciated.
