CRATER LAKE IS COMPARED Dr. Warren D. Smith, Head In Geology, Writes Article In Monitor for January Comparison Made Between Crater Lake and Taal Lake in the Philippines , The University of Oregon Exten sion Monitor for January contains an article by Dr. Warren D. Smith, head of the geology department, on “Two Crater Lakes; A Comparison.” In the article, Dr. Smith compares Crater Lake with Taal lake on the Isle de Bombon, Philippine Islands. “Taal is an active prototype of Crater lake,” writes M.r. Smith. This informally written article gives an interesting description of the two craters and their probable formation. Dr. Smith was geologist for the Philippine government from 1905 to 1907, and from 1907 to 1914 was chief of the bureau of mines for that government, and he has made some geological study of Crater lake as well as an extended investi gation of Taal. The Monitor announces the ap pointment of Alfred Powers as dean of the Extension Division to succeed Earl Kilpatrick, who resigned in December to accept a position with the American Red Cross. Dean Powers was graduated from the Uni versity with the class of 1910 with ’honors in English. lie became a member of the Extension Division staff and was assistant dean and director of social welfare. From December 18 to January 15, 1926, 47 studentj have completed .courses in the correspondence divi sion, according to the Monitor. . - BURTONS WILL PLAY GRAUSTARK PROLOGUE The Burton sisters orchestra pop ularly known ns the “Co-e(l Har monizers” is to give the feature for Graustark, which begins tonight and continues through Saturday, at the McDonald theater, called “In a Garden of Roses.’’ D.

MURRAY WARNER PARTY FACES DANGERS IN CHINESE TYPHOON Undergoing the dangers and rig ors of a typhoon on the Chinese sea is only one of the hardships that face the Hurray Warner party which is now collecting specimens of art in China. According to a letter received Saturday by Mr3. P. L. Campbell from Mrs. Lucy Perkins, curator of the expedition, the trip across the Pacific was un eventful, but the party faced grave danger when within two hours of Mo.ji, the Chinese port for which they were destined. The letter was written from Pe kin, from which Mrs. Warner is conducting her work. It was dated December 9, but for some reason did not reach here until last week. Mrs. Perkins writes that the trip across the Pacific was enjoyable. The two-day stay in Japan during the festival season, she says, was worth while and pleasurable. Because of the revolutionary con dition of China it was impossible for the party to reach Pekin by a direct route. The trip was made by way of the Inland sea, across the end of the Japanese sea and through the Chinese sea. It was in the latter sea that the typhoon oc curred. Theirs was the ninth ves sel to seek refuge in a little land locked harbor to await a calmer sea, writes Mrs. Perkins. Two other storms, even worse than the first, were encountered before their boat reached Tien Tsin, four days late. Mrs. Perkins praises the vigor ous and fearless work being done by Mrs. Warner, pointing out that the position of a director involves much responsibility. The director is now working under the advice of General Munthe, a Norwegian cur ator, who was for a long time a staff officer in the Chinese army and a close personal friend of Major and Mrs. Warner during their 15 years stay there some time ago. The letter did not mention re newed revolutionary activities. Infirmary in Need of New Quarters; Present Buildings Inadequate (Continued from page one) ate situation which we greatly de plore but it would cost $100,000 to build a new modern infirmary and there is no present 'means of raising tbis money. “In 1922 a fire completely de stroyed the buildings of the health service and since that time they have had to put their infirmary wherever it was convient. It was the intention of President Camp bell and myself to raise $00,000 through the gift campaign and build a new infirmary. That amount would have been sufficient at that time. Then the Oregon gift cam paign was instituted through Pres ident Campbell and a new infirm ary was to be built along with other buildings. At the present time the gift campaign is awaiting a new president to get it under way again, and consequently the build ings are held also. “The policy of the building com mittee,” lie said, “is to place the miiiuiij, . iipti’h gymnasium before building a| iew infirmary. Tlio infirmary is me of the most important buildings ,f the school and at present one of its most pressing needs,” Df i Bo vurd continued, “ liut any ch nge as yet proposed would cost moie than the available funds permit.” The amount of sickness on the campus is always greater at the last of January and the first of February than at any other time ilurihg the year according to Dr. Bovard. The students go home during the holidays and bring the germs of many different diseases back to school with them. Usually a month is taken to insure immun- j it V from theso germs. I ---1 TWELVE BOYS HAVING j MUMPS IN INFIRMARY Four men want to the infirmary todiiv with mumps making ft total nf 12 oases. They are Hill James, lark Holt, Phil Sheridan, and . Frank Sparks.

Miller, of the health service, says that none of the eases is ser ious and that the disease is sel dom so. It is contagious and the usual run ia about two weeks.

The purpose of this shelf of books is to give every one an opportunity to learn some thing about the man before they meet him in person. Two books now on the shelf are “The South Pole,” and “Smithson ian Institute,” in which are reports of Amundsen’s early explorations. A list of magazine articles and books by and concerning Amundsen will be posted at the circulation desk. During the summer months news papers all over the country bore daily accounts of this man’s at tempts to reach the north pole, but few people who will have the op portunity of seeing the bold ex plorer on this trip have ever act ually done so before. CLUB TO SPONSOR NEW SERIES OF DISCUSSIONS Australian Students To Lead First Meeting j _’ “The Student Movement,” a renaissance in student thinking, which originated in Germany and came into prominence soon after the World war, will be the topic for dis cussion at the first of a series of meetings to be held at the Y. W. C. A. Bungalow tonight at 7:30, spon sored by the Cosmopolitan club. The purpose of the sponsors of the movement is to study social, eco nomic, political and religious policies and their relation to students. They examine conventions a'jid traditions, and if in any way they do not meet the needs of the present day, they vote to cast them aside. Properties and customs which have ruled for centuries give way unless they can withstand the challenge that is put to them,. The movement does not hesitate to overturn every stojie in the social structure if in doing so it sees the possibility for improve ment. Alexander C. Gordon and Allan G. Searle, Australian students en robed in the University, will have charge of the first meeting. The university life of a student will be discussed by Mr. Gordon. He will contrast student life of the United States with that of Australia. The difficulties foreign students face in other universities will be explained by him, according to Edna Spenker, president of the Cosmopolitan club. General facts about his country and the people there will be the phase taken up by Mr. Searle. Any one interested is invited to attend.
