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

dent in the geology deportment

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. !

ARRANGEMENT MADE
FOR EUROPEAN TOUR
Pacific Coast Art Students
Offered Summer Trip
Under the personal supervision
of Prof. Walter F. Isaacs, head of
the department of painting, sculp
ture and design, a group ot Uni
versity of Washington students are
arranging for a tour of Europe and
England this summer. The tour
will be made under the auspices of
the World Acquaintance Tours of
New York.
Throughout the trip Mr. Isaacs
will give short talks on art appre
ciation and history and guides will
be furnished to take students on
sightseeing tours.
The students will probably start
the latter part of June, going direct
ly to Paris. Five or six days will
be spent there, touring the city,
Versailles and possibly the battle
fields. From there to Avignon and
Nice, Monte Carlo and then to
Italy, stopping at Genoa, Rome,
Naples, Florence, Venice and Mil
an, with sightseeing in each place.
Lucerne and Interlaken will be
visited in Switzerland. Next they
will take the Rhine trip in Ger
many from Cologne to Mayence,
then visit Brussels, Bridges and
then England. Here they will stop
at London, Oxford, the Shakespeare
country and part of Scotland, then
returning home from Liverpool. It
is possible that the trip will be
reversed, going to England first
and then to Paris.
The student tours arrange for
second or third class travel, which
eliminates luxuries but provides
good food and service.
A circular describing in detail
the route, expenses and other in
formation is to be posted at the
bulletin board at the College Side
Inn.
GROUP PICTURES FOR

Pictures of the University Glee
clubs and directors, Eugene Carr
