NAUGflT there is more good
ly than to hold the high
Serene plateaus, well-fortressed
by the wise,
Whence thou may’st look be
low on other men
And see them ev’rywhcre wan
d ’ring, all dispersed
In their lone seeking for the
road of life.—Lucretius.
Only a Beginning;
Where to Now?
GRATIFYING indeed is Pres
ident Hall’s prompt appoint
ment of committees to work out
details of the academic changes ap
proved recently by the faculty. His
action bespeaks his interest in the
now measures that may eventually
mean the necessary rehabilitation
of the University’s educational pro
gram.
No less gratifying are the selec
tions made for the personnel of the
committees. On these men will rest
in a great measure the success of
the enterprise. It is they who must
put a plan, altogether new to Ore
gon, on a working basis, and carry
on the experimentation that will be
necessary before complete adjust
ment is possible. Their task is com
plex, and student support will bo
the most vital aid to them in their
work.
Ur. Boyer’s appointment to the
chairmanship of the honors council
is especially pleasing. Although he
is completing his Jirst year hero, ho
has proved himself fully worthy
and capable of the responsibility
that will become his. I)r. Boyer’s
interest in genuine university edu
cation should do much toward mak
ing the honors college a center of
real educational accomplishment,
and we have faith that he and his
committee can satisfactorily achieve
their task insofar as it rests on
their own interest and ability.
The same is true of Dr. Stafford
and his junior college committee.
Dr. Stafford has long been ono of
a faculty group interested in rais
ing the plane of University schol
arship, and ho can be expected to
give whole-hearted interest to the
plan of reform. Ilis committee,
composed of representatives of all
schools and departments, must like
wise do pioneering, and on its suc
cess depends, of course, in large
measure the success of the whole
enterprise.
On the students themselves^
though, more than on faculty com
mittees, rests, in the final analysis,
the success of the plan. Only in
sofar as the students show a desire
for the changes, an appreciation of
the opportunities offered and a wil
lingness to make the best of them
can any results bo achieved. As
The New Student writes,, in hearty
support of the plan:
“The result is a commendable
change in the entire educational
system. Of course we do not de
lude ourselves into thinking that
this marks an intellectual renais
sance at the University of Oregon.
You need an intelligent faculty
and willing students for that, and
no system guarantees them. But
it is a beginning, and an auspic
ious one at that.”
A beginning is all wo have, in
deed, and auspicious though it may
be, we must not stop there. Cap
able committees have been selected
to caro for the moclianics of the
plan, but the students themselves
must supply the “willing” mator
It should bo a matter of pride in
ial.
the University to give the new
movement the same support that col
lege patriotism diffuses in various
directions. The approved changes,
after all, mean something vital, far
more vital than anything else that
has yet been done, to the University j
in the performance of its primary
functions.
Vod-Vil
(Continued from payo one)
Campbell held audiences silent with
bis kindly oratory.
The arched ceilings, which once
reflected the tones of the elder
Johnson and young John F. Straub, l
heard crooning mammy songs, old- j
fashioned love melodies, happy no- i
gro harmonies, and catchy, provoca
tive modern tunes, while a piano
banged out accompanying flats and
sharps.
When dusk stopped the tryouts,
the ones who had elected to pick
the most talented were tired and
perplexed. Heads got together for
a long, long while before the list
of 41 names appearing today was
selected. The final decisions should
be ready for next Tuesday’s Emer
ald.
More Chances Coming
This list contains the names of
chorus candidates only, and many
who may be inclined to disappoint
ment are apt to find that they have
been shifted to the character try
outs. This list includes none of
those out for character parts. These
tryouts will be held next Tuesday
from 3 to 5 in (luild theater.
Kirtve Sartain, dancing director,
is losing weight worrying over the
final selections. Says Kittye: “The
tryouts during the past two days
have certainly surpassed all my ex
pectations. Flo Zeigfeld, compared
to me, is working with a bunch of
wooden soldiers.’’
Lucky List Given
Those who have been weighed in
the balance and found not wanting
follow:
Emery Miller, Barbara Hedges,
Helen Peters, Rose Crowley, Mary
Mildred Reynolds, Gloria Green,
Dorothy Ee Eevre, Mary Wood, Vir

the evening will be between Brant
Finch, at 145, and an opponent
which is to be selected later. Char

if it is possiblle for him to make
connections. The last bout of the
evening will be between Peterson
and myself at ltlO pounds.
MAURICE COLUNGS, promoter
A full four hours program is go
ing to be crowded into two and a
half hours. From the opening num
ber at 7:30 until the crowd gets
through eating peanuts about mid
night there shouldn’t be a full mo
ment. With six special vaudeville
acts and an orchestra coupled with
the series of rooster tights and
horse and rider tilts which will be
followed by the boxing and the
free-for-all battle royal in three
weight divisions, every one present
should be in for a fine large eve
ning, and if they don't think that
they have had their two bits worth
they can have a couple of extra
pockets full of peanuts.

Elephants
Two million elephants
could not do the work
now being done by Gen
eral Electric motors.
Whatever the work to be
done, whether it needs
the power of an elephant
or the force of a man’s
arm, there is a General
Electric motor that will
do it faithfully for a life
time at a cost of a few
cents an hour.
The elephant is man’s most intelligent helper. But-—")
consider this interesting comparison:
An elephant is much larger than the electric motor of
a “yarder” or logging machine. The “yarder” has the
power of twenty elephants; it handles clusters of logs;
it works dependably, twenty-four hours at a stretch,
if necessary.
Twenty elephants would eat daily 10,000 pounds of
green food, which a corps of attendants must gather.
A motor “eats” nothing but electricity, supplied at
the throw of a switch.
Power used in the modern industrial world is applied
through electric motors—tireless “iron elephants” that
are relegating antiquated machines to museums, along
with such oldtime household articles as wash-tubs and
ordinary irons—and stuffed elephants.

Dearest Anne—
In the Spring a maiden’s
fancy turns to hats. Hats
that are daringly new. Hats
with dash and style and
that touch of buoyancy that
sets all heads awhirl. Of
course, Milady will find her
hearts desire satisfied in
Letitia Abram’s exclusively
little shop. Just unpacked in
all their perky newness Miss
Abram’s presents chapeaux
of quilted silks, straw crochet
and intrigueing, colorful
felts.
To ride on fashion’s crest
with a permanent \yave from
Hasting Sisters (Minor Bldg.)
is indeed the popular achieve
ment of the Oregon co-ed. In
these days when sports are
dictates, riding, swimming,
golfing are greatly simplified
and much more enjoyable sans
hair worries.
‘ ‘ Divinely young and
most divinely fair ’ ’
are the modes of
fashion that grace the store
of Densmbre-Leonard. Each
With its individual charm
foretells success. The witchery
and freshness of Spring time
sparkles from every window
as well as from every part of
the store where coats, frocks,
suits, express the ultimate in
chic and newness and hand
bags, hose and blouses play
their, important part in the
picture of Spring apparel.
Late arrivals into the
realms of novelties — The
Aladdin Gift Shop has them
all—captivating jewelry, fas
cinating pottery, lovely brie
braes, conventional and exo
tic prints—all the very zen
ith of Spring demands.
The criteria for a well
groomed appearance is per
fection of detail—thus en
hancing the importance of
the hair still further. The
Co-ed Barber Shop, establish
ed in its convenient location
next to the College Side, is
the agent thru which the fav
ored styles of haircuts may
be obtained, and appointments
may be made by calling 2719.
The Ainchorage has won its
large patronage thru its com
bined excellence of food, per
fect service, cultural atmos
phere and attractive location.
Catering especially to college
students it in return receives
campus recognition and trade.
“The flowers that bloom
in the Springtime ’ ’—Fashion
as well as Mother Nature says
flowers must bloonr every
where, all the time. Raup’s
Floral Shop, complying with
this decree is the popular
source of supply for dress
corsages, table use and dance
decorations. Big yellow jon
quils, richly colored tulips,
fragrant hyacinths—a won
derful assortment of beauti
ful flowers.
New zest to cooking and
mealtime is had if Underwood
and Elliots grocery store
forms the supply basis. Dishes
that just “hit the spot’’ are
easy attainments nowadays if
one trades at Underwood and
Elliots.
Candy that critical tastes
approve — McKillop’s (next
to M. E. church) has just
that. Fudges, creams, etc., en
ticing to all and gratifying
adequately every taste—words
struggle to describe the temp
ting appeal of his luscious as
sortment.
Yours for always,
Carol.
