Majors in P. E.
Make Thesis Study
In Grade Schools
Posture, Care of Body,
And Health Rules
Taught Students
An interesting experiment in
health education has been carried
on during the yenr by Regina Da
vault nnd Klaine Mobley, seniors in
the department of physical educa
tion for women. The results of the
experiment are being incorporated
into their graduation thesis. Tlio
two girls have been visiting each of
the class rooms of the third and
fourth grades in Lincoln school,
Springfield, for a period of twenty
minutes each day since October 22.
The ninety children were taught
correct posture, care of the body,
and general health rules. An exam
ination was made of the students at
the time the classes were taken over
and again last week when the work
was finished. The practice teachers
found that the pupils of the grade
school were much less afflicted with
falling arches, flat feet, and other
elements of incorrect, posture than
are the students of the University.
They also succeeded in correcting
tho majority of the posture defects
that the pupils had.
Another feature of their thesis
research was the sending of ques
tionnaires to mothers of the chil
dren. These queries sought detailed
information of their habits and
“health” life, thus enabling them
to write a more comprehensive
thesis. "*
Some other members of the senior
major class nnd their thesis sub
jects are: Elizabeth I.ewia, "Correla
tion between Swimming and Danc
ing;” Edith Pierce, “Educational
Dancing as a Corrective Agency;”
Helen Robson, “Tests of Motor
Ability;” Irva Dale, "The Reopona
ibility of tho Physical Educator for
Foot Disabilities.”
Miss Pierce, in working out her
thesis, took a class of 14 girls and
observed them for foot defects.
Photographs and foot graphs were
«ado of the girls’ feet before and
after she had charge of them. Dance
forms, or fundamentals, were taught
the group to strengthen their feet
aad remedy all defect* possible. Be
side* the remedial aspect of the
class, the girls had the pleasure of
the rhythm and the self-expression
inherent in the dances.
Miss Lewis sought to ascertain I
whether marked dancing ability was
accompanied by a like swimming
ability, or whether the muscular de- i
velopment wrought by swimming in
torferos with the grace necessary for
dancing. The findings of tho girls
have not been turned in to the ‘
department.
Y. W. C. A. Record for
Year Reflects Able
Leadership of Heads
The Young Women’s Christian As
sociation of the University has com
pleted another year of service. Ac
tivities of the association include
social, service, religious education
and world fellowship enterprises.
Definite plans of service have been
carried out all year in the various
departments.
“Each of the department heads
have carried out a plan of work of
constructive interest in their de
partment and to the association at
large,” said Beatrice Peters, presi
dent of the Y. W.
The acting officers are: Beatrice
Peters, president; Pauline Stewart,
vice-president; Kathryn Freitag,
secretary; Dorothy Dougall, treas
urer; and Nancy Peterson, under
graduate representative.
The Y. W. Cabinet is composed of
elected officers plus the appointed
departmental chairmen. These chair
men are: social committee, Dorothy
Taylor; membership, Dorothy Dcl
zell; world fellowship, Christina
Holt; girl reserves, Pauline Win
chell; social service, Alice South
wick; finance, Julia Wilson; church
cooperation, Virginia Keeney; meet
ings and religious education, Maizie
Richards; publicity, Helen Webster;
the bungalow, Anita Kellog.
The social program of the Y. W.
starts in the fall with helping fresh
man girls adjust themselves to cam
pus life and concludes with the big
annual Junior-Senior breakfast, giv
en in honor of the graduating wo
men.
The Y. W. C. A. conducts an em
ployment bureau, through which be
tween five and six hundred calls
for work were filled this year. This
service enables many girls to aug
ment their income. Housework, sew
ing, waiting on tables, caring for
children, stenographic work and mis
cellaneous jobs are cared fcr through
this bureau.
Through Mrs. M. S. Ady, police
matron, the girls of the association
gave to the poor families of Eu
gene during Christmas season.

Oregon Orators
Close Season at
Moscow Contest
Twenty-s even Represent
Oregon During Year’s
Forensic Schedule
By Jack Hempstead
With the victory in the Tri-State
oratory contest at Moscow last Sat
urday, the Oregon forensic program
for 1925-26 came to an official close,
although the Failing-Beekman event
during Commencement week and the
Jewett Prize contests, both only of
campus interest, are yet to be com
pleted.
A departure from the system used
in previous years was made at the
debate tryouts in the fall. Hereto
fore tryouts preceding each contest
were held, but much less confurion
results from a single tryout and
more satisfactory results were ob
tained. Such a system was used to
pick the oratory team.
Twenty-seven students, either
freshman men and women or var
sity men and women, represented
the University in debate or oratory
or extempore speaking—more than
I ever before participated in three
seasons.
The schedule included: varsity
men’s debate, a dual with Oregon
Agricultural. College, a triangle with
University of Washington and Uni
versity of Idaho, and single debates
with University of Southern Califor
nia and University of Utah; a
woman’s triangle with University
of Washington and Reed college;
freshman men met Linfield in a
dual contest and the girls met the
Eugene Bible university in a dual.
These were no decision contests, as
were the two varsity men’s single
debate and the varsity women’s
triangle. Oregon broke even in the
other two men’s debates.
In oratory, Oregon took part in
four events: the Pacific Forensic
League contest at Salem, February
9, in which Herschel Brown placed
third; the State Old Line contest at
Corvallis, March 11, in which Avery
Thompson placed fourth; the State
Peace contest at Eugene on April
9, in which Jack Hempstead won
second place; and the Tri-State
contest, May 22, at Moscow, won
by Ralph Bailey. Benoit McCroskey,
Oregon entrant in the national
constitutional contest, was forced to
withdraw upon doctor's orders.
Brown also placed third in the
Pacific Coast extempore speaking
event at Pullman, April 9.
Unique among the year’s activi
ties was the first use of the “Ore
gon Style” of debate used first
against the University of Utah on
March 11. It has been fully ex
plained, its two main features be
ing a period for cross-questioning
and possibility for humor and spon
taneity.
Myrtle Mast Gives
Outline of Plans for
W. A. A. Next Year
Mj-rtle Mast, president of W. A.
A. for tho year 1926-27, has already
: laid out the main program which
she hopes to see put into effect by
that body next year. It includes
several new features, the most im
portant of which is the publication
each term of a W. A. A. bulletin.
The bulletin will take the place
of tho old handbook, which it has
been customary to issue at tho be
ginning of each school year. It is
the purpose of tho new publication
to contain a review of all the work
doue for tho term by the association.
The president-elect will also en
deavor to put ovor a health pro
gram next year. This would require
that stringent rules bo followed by
those who seek to placo on the vari
ous class teams. She also hopos to
have tho voluntary sports commit
tee, already provided for, function
more actively next year.
The question of giving points to the
class managers, heretofore not done,
will bo threshed out early iu the
fall.
A last situation which Miss Mast
hopes to see changed is the grade

New Magazine
To Make Debut
At Centennial
Klep, Chief of All-Campus
Publication, Outlines
Plans, Policies
After months of work on the part
of the committee members, who
have made calculations and plans
and have met with the executive
council at intervals during the en
tire school year, definite plans for
the new all campus magazine are
definitely under way, says Bolf
Klep, editor. He is being assisted
by Douglas Wilson, manager.
The first edition of the magazine,
for which a name has not yet been
selected, will come out during the
Semi-Centennial celebration. “It
will be a good opening number and
should inspire the whole campus to
subscribe, for on the subscriptions
depends the success of the maga
zine,” says Bolf Klep. It was with
the understanding that 1000 sub
scriptions be gotten before publica
tion that the executive council
granted permission for the publica
tion of the magazine.
The subscription price will be
$1.25 for the six editions of the en
tire year.
In speaking of the general aspects
of the magazine, Klep said, “As to
policy, we are going to put out a
magazine for the students and one
that will be of interest to every de
partment in the University.” It
will include short stories, articles
and humor.
The cover will probably be of two
or three colors, says the editor,
with an occasional linoleum-cut from
the art (department.
Billy Reinhart, varsity basketball
and baseball coach, will conduct
classes in basketball coaching in
the summer session of the Univers
ity of California at Berkeley for
the six months school.
Delbert Oberteuffer will accom
pany Harry Scott to Columbia Uni
versity where he will teach his sec
cond year on the “teaching of
health in secondary schools and col
leges.”
Earl Widmer will take summer
school work in physical education
at the University of Chicago.

was passed extending the time two
years for turning the property over
to the state.
Thomas G. Hendricks, Ben F. Dor
ris and Judge J. J. Walton, mem
bers of the Union University asso
ciation, interested the Grange in
the project. Enough money was ob
tained to finish the framework and
four rooms in the building.
In July 1876 Governor Grover,
State Secretary Chadwick and
Treasurer Brown looked the building
over and accepted it, half finished
though it was, as the new university.
With the acceptance, the funds
derived from the land set aside by
the government for the university
were available. The interest on the
$40,000 or $50,000 of the funds was
used to hire the faculty of three,
President John W. Johnson of Port
land, Mark Baily of McMinnville,
and Mr. Thomas Condon of Forest
Grove, the University was opened.
Later Mrs. Mary Spiller was added
as principal of the preparatory de
partment with Miss Mary E. Stone
as assistant.
However, liens on the building
amounting to $6,000 had been given
to mechanics and contractors in
order to open the University on
time. These fell due in 1881-82 and
the University was unable to make
the payments. Henry Villard, build
er of the Northern Pacific railway,
read of the plight of the University

and gave $6,000 to pay the work
men. Later he gave $50,000 more
to found a chair of English and
build Yillard hall.
The present income of the Uni
versity amounts to about a million
and a quarter a year. Its enroll
ment from 40 in the collegiate divi
sion in 1878 has grown to 3200,
including the Medical school.
