YEAR PROSPECTS HELD PROMISING Walter Malcolm, Student Body Head, Commends Greater Oregon Body Co-operation With Frosh Planned by Members of A. S. U, 0. Council Prospects for the year in almost, every line of A. S. U. O. activity are extremely bright in the opinion of Walter Malcolm, president of the student body. The best evidence of this fact,' he believes is the large freshman class, which is said to outnumber any previous entering class by a large margin. Athletic Prospects Bright Oregon’s success in attracting so many new students can be attribut ed largely to the work of this year’s Greater Oregon committee, said Malcolm. Robert McCabe is general chairman of the committee, and Hal Lundberg, associate chair man. The following students are members of the directorate: George Meade, Ralph Staley, Carl Dahl, DeLoris Pearson, Paul Ager, Charles Jost and Nick Carter. Athletic prospects, Malcolm feels are better than they have been for a great many years. The varsity line-up is stronger than it has been for some time past and predictions of a successful season seem war ranted in consideration of the ma terial available. Basketball pros pects are equally promising and al together the outlook for the season is a cheerful and encouraging one to the administration. The Fresh man class in particular includes some good material which needs only organization to make it a successful factor in the athletic field. Building Program Moving The building program made pos sible by the adoption of the five dollar amendment last year is going ahead. The bleachers will be com pletely finished in time for the im portant games of the season and will be far enough advanced by next Saturday to seat the crowd for the first game. There were hopes of having a completed basketball pavilion in time for the basketball season but this can be made pos sible only through large additional expense. Freshmen to be Added Co-operation with the freshman class in every way possible with a strong organization in view is one of the first things to be undertaken by the A. R. U. O. administration, according to Malcolm. Eerything in the administration’s power will be adone to assist, the freshman presi dent so that his office may be made a really worth while one. Another matter that has been considered by the student council is the matter of freshman discipline. In the past this ras not been ac corded the seriousness it deserves, in the days of the council, and the punishment on the library steps has been more of a farce than actual dis cipline. In the future, only those who deserve it will be punished and it 5s expected that the tendency to make the procedure a joke will be diminished. Work to be Distributed Fairness in the importance ac corded any particular line of ac tivities will be attempted through out the entire year by the student council, Malcolm said, giving each activity the prominence it deserves and stressing none too much or too little. “It is the plan of the administra tion to distribute student body work and appointments as widely as possible and to eliminate as far as possible any useless activity, with the purpose in mind that the activities of the University may serve as an assistance in the college course, rather than a detraction therefrom. ’’ University to Honor Methodist Delegates Members of the faculty and the University will be hosts Thursday afternoon at a reception and tea in honor of Methodist ministers at tending the 73rd annual session of the Oregon Conference of the Metho dist Episcopal church, held in Eu gene this week. The opening ses sion of the conference was held last night in the First Methodist church. A committee of four, consisting of Professors Fredric S. Dunn, chairman, Professor A. E. Sweetser, Dean John F. Bovard, and Dr. War ren D. Smith, have been appointed to arrange for the reception.
