Tightening Up On
Entrance Requirements
Last year the faculty voted to exclude all students from
other states applying for admission to the university who
could not pass the entrance examinations or requirements of
their own state institution. At first glance this seemed fair
and just, since it acted as an insurance against an influx of
undesirable students who had been refused admission into
other state universities and colleges.
In reality the practice is manifestly unfair, since it imposes
entrance requirements that may be of an entirely different
nature upon applicants from different states. Thus, while
Oregon may receive no undesirables from one state whose
standards are high, there is no way of guarding against an
other whose standards are below our own. Nor does the ruling
take care of the poorly prepared applicant from high schools of
our own state, having low standards, although duly accredited.
The motion proposed by Dr. Rebec at the last faculty meet
ing is designed to remedy this condition by imposing uniform
entrance requirements upon all who seek admission to the Uni
versity, regardless of where they come from. It is admitted
that there are difficulties to be overcome in this plan, but other
states have succeeded in surmounting them. It might necessi
tate a uniform entrance examination, and where inspection of
all contributing high schools seems impossible or impractical,
this would also have its advantages. The solution of the prob
lem may have some effeci upon the high mortality rate among
first-term freshmen. Some process of weeding out is neces
sary, and it would be better for all concerned if this could be
done as early and as justly as possible. Dr. Rebec’s motion
would seem a step in the right direction.—ELK.

Another triumph of reason and
logic! Professor Ira B. Cross of the
University of California thought
that if the young women made their
toilets in their classes, thero was
no logical reason why men should
not do likewise.
• * *
Bo ho invited them to bring their
shaving utensils and three of them
took him at his word asid logic was
vindicated. Whether tho vanity
cases will bo eliminated is another
matter. They are not tho products
of logic.
• • •
It doesn’t take a brain storm toj
Bee wherein the motif of anything
like that lies. Manners ought to
entor into this. And, after all,
manners are controlled more by cus
tom than logic. It was once good
manners for a woman to invito her
guests to her bedroom) to boo her
dress. But there is more involved
thau manners in this present custom
of public primping. We hnvo all
tho respect and affection in tho
world for the gentler sex in this
column, but that stuff is blatant
and offensive self-centeredness.

“On what security is bank cur
rency issued!” asks the professor
“How many blanks did you say
%yere issued!” answers the co-ed
powdering her nose.
“Migawd, my bank account’s
overdrawn!” says hubby.
“l)o you like my hew hat!” an
swers the wife, touching her lips
with Vermillion. Well, the act
doesn’t personally irritate us so
we’ll go on. The subject is inter
esting, however.

“When other lips and other hearts
their tab's of love shall tell.” But
that is a story of long ago. Today
we may have other lips and still
keep the same old heart. The beauty
parlor magician can work the trick.
“Peeled Lips” are the latest
swank front} the beauty parlors. If
milady’s lips have lost the ruddy
tint of youth or if tho Cupid bow of
girlhood has disappeared aud she
doesn’t care to have the aroma of
stick or cosmetic conflicting with
the flavor of her chocolate or gin
fizz she may have them peeled and
remodeled and restored to tho
cherry red of her girlhood.
The new womam of 30 years ago
was a freak because she looked dif
ferent. The new woman of today
is the regular thing aud doesn’t
look different from other women.
That’s the fly in the ointment—
they all look alike when they conic
out of the beauty parlor.
* * #
Ah well, livery drunkard drinks
for a purpose. It may make for
constancy in man. Probably he
won’t want tc wander when other
lips aro much the same as those he’s
been used to.

kets will also be sold at the Co-op

Oregon Laboratories Obtain
Out of State Specimens
Sale of Frogs, Turtles, Suggested j
As Paying Business
Hundreds of live frogs, mice, tur
tles, snakes, salamanders and flies,
which are studied by the Univer
sity of Oregon biology and zoology
students yearly are practically all
shipped .in from other states. Most
of the specimens could be obtained
within 100 miles of Eugene if in
terested persons specialized in col
lecting and breeding animals for j
the purpose, Oscar Richards of the!
zoology department believes.
Each year it becomes more diffi
cult to secure enough animals to
supply the students with laboratory
material. Frogs used are generally
sent here from the Mississippi val
ley. It is almost impossible to get
them, Dr. Richards stated, because
several states which are particul
arly fruitful in amphibians have
passed laws prohibiting anyone to
send them out of the states, in
order to save them from extinction.
Hundreds of thousands of frogs are
killed each year for bait and for
human food, leaving only a few for
scientic purposes.
Frogs are valuable in aiding in
the extermination of injurious in
sects such as mosquitoes, flies and
spiders. This is the chief reason
that the laws were passed against
exporting them. Frogs are a good
substitute for fly-swatters, accord
ing to Mr. Richards, who told about
combating flies at the research
shack last spring. He turned sev
eral of his frogs loose in the room i
and in a short time they had de-!
voured most of the pests.
Oregon instructors believe that
anyone with proper facilities, and
a knowledge of animal habits,
could raise frogs and turtles, and,
bv supplying universities in the i
state, make it a paying business.
Dean Zeller, of the school of pharrn- ^
acy at O. A. C., stated recently
that his department could use sev-!
eral thousand specimens each year.!
