Mitchelmore Assistant Night Editors— doe Rice TUESDAY, JANUARY 10, 1928 ISot Just Because ‘It’s Good for You9 FOR more tli,'in a decade American critics have wrestled with the problem of cultural dualism. The unmistakeabio distinction of the “highbrow” as opposed to the “low I row”, they say, is the popular in dication of a confusion all too rec ognizable in those who flaunt sub lime ideals while their methods are meanly “practical.” Education is not the least of the sufferers from this ubiquitous mal ady. And as a result, learning has grown barren because educational curricula have been disassociated toil radically from living. The tow cring sunflower of extra-curricular activities has sprung full blown from the educational field while it. has lain fallow in pedantry. The state university is properly the mentor of the entire state, and its responsibilities are by no means discharged when it lias merely min istcrcd to its enrolled students. It is a clearing house for state ideas and problems, practical-mud cultural. Beiiificiently it influences state nr-I livitres by means of this intercourse,] anti in return is invigorated in its| own life by these real contacts. Left undisturbed, a compact uni versity group quickly grows self centered. And it continues to be! unaware of its affliction until in- j ter rupted. As hostess to a number Of high ; school students next week-end, Ore gon unavoidably is to be disturbed.! And by glancing over the narrow! column rule partition thut separates j us from our witty neighbor, we have observed thut cvelvuue does not relish this particular interruption.. It is not merely that the high school eouforenco is good for ns that we should accept it. But that it is a lively and real part of college life. And its success will be the measure of Oregon's abilrtv to con vert her precepts into actualities. We are confident that, individually and collectively, Oregon ran make her principles authentic realities. Honor Systems And Honor WHKN is an honor spirit an honor spirit ! When it is merely another scheme to allay the evils of cribbing in examinations? American colleges ami unixeisi t;es have been experimenting with the problem for many years, ami have yet to find a solution which will truly solve the question. Many systems have been put into prac tice for a while, only to prove in adequate. One picks up college newspapers to read that this institu tion has adopted a plan and that its neighbor has decided to abandon one just like it. The hunt goes on with scarce an indication of real progress. This month sees the inauguration of an attempted Solution by the Uni versity of California at Bos Angeles. After an investigation of the honor system as in use at the University of California, Berkeley, the Los An geles institution decided to adopt it as a model for its own venture in solving the problem. The use of alternate seats during examinations, placing of all note books on the floor and refraining bum absenting oneself from the -loom the room oftener than neces sary daring the course of the ex-] animation, are a few of the gov erning precepts laid down by the et mmiltee in charge. The Daily Bruin, student news paper of the l . C. L. -V., carried the following statement last week: “The California Honor Spirit, the highest tradition of the University of California, places every student on his honor to conduct himself willingly in complete accord with the highest principles of personal in tegrity. ’ ’ So far, so good. But in another portion of the same issue, there ap pears a notice telling the students where to obtain blanks for use in informing on violators of tire coda. Of course there will be informers, and justly so. When a new law is put into effect, it is incumbent upon all citizens to do their share toward its enforcement. Many take this duty seriously. Many do not. They feel that the work of enforcement rest with paid workers. Just as it can not be denied that such an at titude is wrong, neither can it be said that it does not exist. The same is true with student tion o> systems in examination. Students who would not under anv circum stances cheat in an examination, will not inform on fellow . .students who do. they feel that the cheater hurts no one but himself and are willing that lie take ttie consequences such as they may be, later iii life. The small number of students who are punished for their infractions of the honor spirit is not sufficient to definitely curb the practice of cheating. A real solution may he forthcoming, perhaps, but there will probably be a change in tinman na ture before then. \V. ('.

PHI DELT BASKETEERS BEAT WILLAMETTE TWICE (By Clothes Press Sports Editor) On two successive nights in Mc Arthur Court the crack basketball team of Phi Delta Theta displayed flashes of brilliance, and on two successive nights the Willamette Bearcats left the same floor on the short end of scores separated by goodly margins. Coach Bill Reinhart, commenting on the team after the games, said a basketball court is under construc tion in the Phi Delt attic, and that constant practise at all hours of the day and night will greatly help in whipping the quintet into form for the opening conference game, Janu ary 21, against Idaho.

Rapid-Fire Replies To Curious Queries The Inquiring Reporter Asks from Campus folks selected at random, one question each day. Replies are directly quoted. Today’s question: What is . the question you most commonly hear? i Hubert Yearian, graduate assis- j tant in physics: “The thing you hoar most tfften is, ‘I don’t know how.’ I'm sorry to say that the girls ask this question more often than the boys, though we have some boys asking it, too. The girls are mare apt to ask, but the fellows beat about the bush trying to make you think they know what they are talking about.” Lorena Wilson, freshman in so ciology: “That ‘How do you like college?’ is one of the dumb ques tions always asked. At certain times ■ of the school year it is asked five times a day and at others only oc casionally. When you go home you hear it often.” ,Toe Pigncy, sophomore in journal ism: “‘What’s new around the shack?’ is what reporters ask when looking for news. It’s usually so indefinite that they never get an answer. ” James Moraine, sophomore in the ! Eugene Bible University: “Well, I I think the most common is ‘whether we dross the same in Africa as we j do here.’ I come from Africa, you sec. Then they always ask if the I young ladies are the same. Also I they want to know if white people | live there. They expect everyone I to be black.” Lack of Preparation Believed To Cause Poor P. A. Scores The first physical ability test for the winter term was held in the ! men's gymnasium Saturday morn-] ing. The average number of points j made by the men Who took the test j was somewhat lower than the test given at the same time last term, which is believed to be duo to lack of preparation. Last term a two week period of preparation was available before the first test ^vas given. •The three men scoring highest in the test Saturday were Joe Bice, j with 133 points; Aarne Pompel, 101 I points; and Charles Latourette, 96 j points. The two lap run resulted in a tie at 23:6, the draw being made by j Joe Bice and John Hamill. In the rope climb C. H. Barr showed con 1 siderable agility, climbing the hemp in 11 seconds. L. Stephens led in j the high jump at 1 feet 10 inches. The bar vault event was closely con- S 1 tested, but went to L. Kippinger, i ! who reached a height of 6 feet 4 inches. The swim event proved to be the Waterloo of several aspirants, i Bichard Marshall took first honors ! by covering the distance in 1 min- j i ute and 26 seconds. The next P. A. test will be given ! I two weeks before* the end of the i present term. As the grade in this test will be final for those who do not make a higher mark in daily work, it is advised that those who | desire to raise their grade in the next test improve themselves in their weak events. The instructors especially advise practise in swim ming. -"' ■■■—■ Attraction Extraordinary The Gulf Coast Seven of Dallas, Texas “One of the South’s Most Famous Bands’’ DANCE to tlieir irresistable music at the new j Spanish Ball Room I (1 Nite Only) j Wednesd’y, Jan. 11 See and Hear Miss Bobbie Williams Feature Dancer Blue Singer Men $1.00 —Ladies Free Also this wefck— Johnny Robinson's Seven Serenaders Friday and Saturday Men 7oc — Ladies Free |CAMPUS Bulletin Amphibian meeting...
