Students Who Desire Extra Curricular Work Number 72 per cent of University Committee Receives Aidi of Prof. Howard R. Taylor in Compilation of Statistics Seventy-two per cent of the stu dents on the University of Oregon campus are interested in student activities, indicated by statistics compiled by the activities commit tee from the questionnaires filled out by the students at registration this term. Of the 2,584 students who regis tered, 1,808 indicated interest in activities, and 076 signified they Were uninterested. It is also in teresting to note that, of this num ber, the greater interest in student activities seems to be among stu dents in organizations rather than among those who are unattached. A great deal of work has been done on this work by the activities committee, composed of Esther Set ters and Paul Agor. They wore assisted in compiling the statistics by the Thespians, freshman wom en’s organization. Psychologist Assists Prof. Howard It. Taylor, of the psychology department, who has been helping the committee with this work, is very much interested in the project and expects it to prove very valuable in the future, if it is followed up with earnest ef fort. “The studont body is very act ive” said Professor Taylor, “and lias many undertakings under way. In addition to this tho student body is anxious to inereaso its efficien cy, and I believo that they aro on the right track.” Of course, preferences do not in dicate how well tho individual can work, ho pointed out. The next step in this work is to find out just how much it does show. “Undoubtedly there is a lot of value in the training students get in carrying on actiyities,” Profes sor Taylor said, “Such a registra tion is a gesture, a movement in tho direction to givo opportunities to those best fitted for it. I think it one of the most important move ments in education at the present time. It is a movement to give people training, not in the ordinary fashion, but along lines in which they are most capable, with tho idea of improving efficiency where they have the largest opportunity.” Compilation Given Following is a list of tho statis tics which have just been compiled: Total number of students re porting ...2,581 Number signifying interest in activities .-.1,808 j Women . 802 In organizations ...» (IRS Unattached . 224 Men . 916 In organizations ... 51R Unattached . 400 Number signifying lack of in terest . 676 Women . 804 Men .872 I. —Art and Decorating Women . 130 In organizations . 100 Unattached . 30 Men . 46 In organizations . 24 Unattached . 22 II. —Athletics Women . 376 III organizations . 300 Unattached . 76 Men . 521 In organizations . 340 Unattached . 181 III. —Committee work in Fra ternity Women . 123 Men . 90 IV. —Committee work in Stu dent Body Women . 283 In organizations . 251 Unattached . 32 Men . 1^7 In organizations . 137 Unattached . 40 V. —Debate Women . 44 In organizations . 18 Unattached . 26 Men . ™ In organizations . 35 Unattached . 44 VI. —Journalism Editorial Women .

The house is poorly ventilated, and as one student expressed it, “Wo al most have to freeze to death to get fresh air to breathe.” The patients are crowded throughout the lower floor, even the kitchen being used. The upstairs part of the house can not be put into use because of the lack of heating facilities. One Case Reported Yesterday With only one additional case re ceived yesterday, Dr. Fred N. Mill er, University physician, was hope ful that the peak of the epidemic had passed. “The infirmary is not even a good ward and we should not keep men there,” he said. “If the Uni versity is going to do what it says in its catalog, take caro of the sick students and isolate contagious cases, it should have a good infirm ary with all the facilities necessary to do these things. “We have tried to make the in i firmarv as agreeable as possible and have tried to retain the stu dents ’ goodwill, but we admit that conditions are far from what they should be.” With a diphtheria patient quar antined in one of the rooms of the newer building, space has been fur ther out down there.

Gilbert, acting dean of the Univer sity, at the last faculty meeting, that freshmen students showing ef ficiency in the required year of English should be exempt from tak ing it after the first term, would not debar them from taking up other English work or continue that course if they cared for it, said Dr. Gilbert yesterday. “In other words,” he said, “it is permissible but not mandatory.” The departments in the school believe that this English require ment takes time that could be used to a better advantage in specializ Preston & Hales Manufacturers of Leather Gobds DEALERS IN FAINTS, OILS AND WALLPAPERS New Fur Store Opening I Saturday, February 13 j With a Complete Line of Furs Remodeling and relining of coats will be a feature of this store.

Bigger Generators— Cheaper 'Electricity A 70,000 horsepower hydro-electric unit recently installed at Niagara Falls utilizes the same amount of water as seven former 5,000-horsepower units, yet does the work of fourteen such units. And it saves 700,000 tons of coal yearly for the nation. , As more and still more uses are found for electricity, larger and more economical generators are installed. At the power plant, as well as at the consumer’s end, important changes and startling developments have steadily reduced the cost of electricity for light, power, and heat. And wherever electricity has blazed its trail—in towns, cities, industrial centers, and rural communities—comfort and progress have come to stay. Generating and distributing electricity concern the technical student. But electricity’s application in the betterment of industry, the professions, and home life concerns every edu cated person. Cheap electricity means many startling achieve ments today, but countless and unbelievable possibilities tomorrow. l-»DH GENERAL ELECTRIC GENERAL ELECTRIC COMPANY SCHENECTADY. NEW YORK
