* Morocco Mourns Sultan Who Rode Bicycle Around Gardens For Fun ‘Grand Pacifier’ Dies After Life of Usefulness (By United Press) FEZ, Morocco, Nov. 17.—Mouley Youssef, the sultan who enriched his nation by the introduction of mod ern methods of industry and trans port, was mourned throughout Morocco tonight in accordance with the ancient rites of the Moslems. On the desert thousands of the sultan’s subjects kneeled in the sands; in the towns they prayed in mosques—all facing Mecca. Mouley Youssef, who came to the Moroccan throne in August 1912, the day after the massacres of Euro peans in Morocco, died of uremic poisoning from which he had suf fered for a year. He fought a long, victorious cam paign against the rebels and Moroc co will remember him as the “grand pacifier.” Although a sincere traditionalist, Youssef sometimes strangely mixed traditions with the ultra modern. Stepping fnom under a massive umbrella—the rifost. outstanding in signia of power—the sultan would mount a bicycle imported from France, gather his flowing robes un der the seat and ride for an hour or more in the palace gardens. Maude I. Kerns Granted Leave For Two Terms Normal Arts Instructor To Make Art Survey In Europe Miss Maude I. Kerns, head of the department of normal arts in the sehool of architecture and al lied arts, has been granted a leave of absence by the University, which will run from January 1 un til the end of spring term. She will spend this time traveling- and studying in the cast and in Europe. During her absence Donald B. Simpson of Seattle will probably take charge of her courses, Ellis F. Lawrence, dean of the school, an nounced. • The appointment of Simpson, who visited the Oregon campus Wednes day, was formally recommended to Karl W. Onthank, executive secre tary of the University, yesterday. He is asked to report here the first of December so that he may have the last two weeks of the term with Miss Kerns, to observe her methods and become acquainted with the ■work. Mr. Simpson is a graduate of the University of Washington, where he specialized in normal arts and received the degree of B.A. in edu cation. He has also attended Col umbia University, and obtained his M.A. degree in the spring of 1927. Because of his preparation and out standing recommendations, ho has the unanimous approval of the fac ulty of the school, Dean Lawrence stated. They believe that he is entirely capable of carrying on the normal arts work. Miss Victoria Avakian, Nowland B. Zane, and Mrs. Vera McGintv are the mem bers of a faculty committee which will assist him. Miss Kerns has made tentative plans for her trip. She expects to arrive in New York about the mid dle of January, in order to be there at the height of the mid-winter art, music, and theater season. She will visit the exhibitions, galleries, and university art departments in Chi cago, the Barnes Foundation in Philadelphia, and the Freerer col lection in Washington, D. C., and will probably stop in Boston, on her way to New York, making a survey of art conditions. She will spend a few weeks at Columbia University, where she was graduated in fine arts after her graduation from the University of Oregon. “From New York I will go direct ly to Paris for the art exhibitions and the opera in the heart of the season,” said Miss Kerns. “I will do some studying there; in fact, a study of modern art in Europe is my purpose, in 19115 I went across the continent looking up the un usual in art, and I want to go on with that now. , “In the spring I will sketch in Spain. Then 1 will go to Italy, northern Africa, Egypt, Athens, and to Vienna to study again. From August 1 to 7, I will attend the in ternational art conference at Prague, to get a line on tlie educa tional side of art in general. I will then return to Paris, where I will be with my niece, Mary Chambers Brockelbank.” Mrs. Brockefbank received her master of science de gree at the University of Oregon in 1921. Miss Kerns will be back on the campus at the beginning of the 1928 fall term. C. L. Kelly to Address Business Conference Mr. C. L.
