Dr. Bowen Explains Department’s Views On Requirements (Continued from page one) haven’t sensed the full valuo of it in all phases of college education, it is the duty of the different de partments to impress that value up on them. The University has al ready decided that a reading knowl edge is necessary, but to make the requirement now might work a, hardship if it were carried out to the full extent of the letter. “The average University stu dent may not travel abroad but ho is concerned with dealing with ideas and the general mass of hum an knowledge and what the peo ples of the world are thinking.” Dr. Bowen is not in sympathy with a policy that allows students to study languages on an imprac tical basis, believing that a reading knowledge is the only legitimate object of study. EX-STUDENT PUBLISHES FOSSIL DISCOVERIES Leo George Hertlein, former stu dent in the geology deportment and nt present at Stanford Univer sity, recently published an account of his discoveries of marine fossils.

Hodge, professor of geology, and gome have Hertlein’s name.

INSTRUCTORS SPEND HOLIDAY ON SLOPES OF MOUNT RAINIER Group Enjoys Skiing, Radio Cartels, Tobogganing, Fair Weather in Paradise Valley Listening to Christmas carols broadcast from radio stations of Pacific coast and Canadian cities, while shut off from the world at Paradise Inn, 5,600 feet in eleva tion at Mt. Eainier National Park, and spending a week enjoying win ter sports was the experience of four University faculty women. Miss Florence E. Wilbur, instruc tor in English, Miss Ernestine Troe mel and Miss Lillian Stupp of the physical education department and Miss Fanny McCamant, head resi dent of Susan Campbell hall left Eugene the first day of the winter vacation, motored to Paradise Val ley and after their return to Port land, all but Miss McCamant, to Seaside, where they found the weather much colder than in the national park in spite of the fact that the elevation is lower. The women motored to JLiongmlre Inn, where they remained for three days, before starting up the seven mile trail to Paradise Valley. The trip is a very steep and hard one and is made entirely by hiking. “There wore six feet of snow all around us and we had to use snow shoes,” said Miss Wilbur in an ac count of her trip. The guide had to carry a huge pouch of mail, a turkey for Christinas dinner and skis to four men who were spend ing the winter at Paradise Inn. In , our party were four young men j from the University of Washing-^ ton and the nine of us labored up the steep climb until we finally reached Paradise Valley. “Paradise Valley is a beautiful spot and during the four days we spent there the weather Vas per-! feet, the sun shone and the sky was very blue. We spent our days to bogganing, hiking, skiing and in dulging in the many winter sports at the resort. In the evening there were great open bonfires and we sometimes satf around 'them and sometimes went for moonlight hikes to spots of beauty. “Mt. Rainier towers many feet above the valley. It is completely covered with snow and no one climbs it until summer. One night while we were out we heard a ter rible roar, which our guide told us was an avalanche which would have killed anyone in the way of it. “Christmas day was a very jolly one. The Christmas spirit prevail ed. We had a turkey dinner and then went tobogganing. “We spent the rest of the vaca tion at Seaside, returning home late Sunday evening.” “On the fifth day we returned to Longmire Inn and then motored back to Portland. The fog was very dense and did not lift until we were within a few miles of Port land when it was suddenly clear and we could se Mt. Hood, Mt. Adams, Mt. St. Helen’s and Mt. Rainier. JOURNALISM SCRIBES PLAN CAMPUS DANCE Authors of “Yellow Fang” Still Seek Revenge Although the Sigma Delta Chi lias announced their intention to stage a huge journalism jamboree for the entiro campus to re-imburso their depleted treasury due to the unfortunate demise of the “Yellow Fang” they also announce that their war with the Homocoming committee is by no means ended. Instead it is their plan to exposo the details of the disasterous end of the publication before a session of the moot court in the spring term of the school year. The de fendents, James Deako and James Forstel, heads of the Homecoming Directorate are to be represented in the court by Paul Patterson, while the- plaintiffs will be presented by Tom Graham, both students in tho law school. i»; The case first arose over the failure of the “Yellow Fang” offi cial comic publication of the Sigma Delta Chi to appear at the smoker held by the men of the University at homecoming. Upon investigation it seems that they found the edition just coming off the press, having been held up several hours due to a last minute censure of the con tents of the paper. • The Sigma Delta Chi claims that the censure legitimate in purpose but that the time of the censure was directly responsible for its fail ure to appear in time to be sold, thereby allowing the scribes to go sunk to the tune of about $60. With all of the journalistic gen- , ius of the time, the scribes resolve j not to be the goats financially or j otherwise, so plan a jamboree big- j ger and better than the university j has ever known and that, they ad- ! mit, is a job not to be sneered at. ! ANN OUUN CEMENT Alpha Xi Delta announces the pledging of Phyllis Scranton, of LaOrande. STUDIES OF PRESENT RELIGIONS UNDERTAKEN Henry W.
