Alluring Scholarships
Beckon from Abroad
A NNOUXCEMKNT8 of alluring
foreign scholarships for Ameri
can students have come to the
Kmerald office this season in un
precedented numbers. It may be
that, before war clouds gathered
over Europe, students had equal
opportunities to continue their
studies abroad, but the recollection j
of that time is dim in this genera- :
lion’s mind.
•Scholarships being offered are of.
all kinds and sizes, to suit all
capacities and ambitions. The range
of selection for competition is so
broad, indeed, that anv intelligent,
well-developed graduate with a bent
for furthering his intellectual in
quiries under the most; attractive
conditions possible should iind at
least one to intrigue him.
It seems so. But tin- facts deny
this supposition, for applicants here
are rare. Concentration of atten
tion on the Hhodes offer is respon
sible for a large nreiwmro of tin’
campus awe in which scholarships
are held. Competition in this event
is always sprightly and candidates
are considered a highly selected
group and of mental stature away
and above their plodding fellows.
And, since even these are perforce
often disappointed, the campus gen
erally refuses to count scholarships
among its possibilities.
'I’lie popularity of study at Oxford
lias made the University’s repre
sentatives first rankers. And it is
much to Oregon’s credit that this
is so. But that is all the more rea
son that Rhodes scholarships
shouldn’t receive attention to the
exclusion of all the other excellent
oilers which, perhaps, are more
adaptable to the diverse interests of
the general student group.
In Dr. ltebec, dean of the gradu
ate school, aspirants Iind a wise and
sympathetic counselor in the matter
of scholarships. Seniors who feel
an urge to continue their work, per
haps in a more detinite field, and at
tin’ same time are disinclined to
risk the intellectual stagnation often
accompanying graduate work at alma
mater, could do no better than to
survey the scholarship prospects for
next vear.
The Stuff Dreams

ANDY GUMI-, vvc leani, was out
of Iiis head for III) days. What
a difference there can be in the
meaning of “ninety days!” When
said by the judge the words have a
sinister sound. When they appear
on a note for money due, you fon
dle each coin with lingering caresses.
For Andy it was to dream of golden

i A tmek and Andy came together.
Soon the chinless wonder was in
! command of an army of one bu
llion dollars marshalled ready to
inarch and do good in the name of
| Sweet Charity.
A billion dollars! What a poser
-to confront a man accustomed to
watch the household accounts for a
rise in the price of butter and eggs.
To wisely dispose of such a sum is
truly a herculean task. But did it
stump this man whose life is an
open book to us allf Not at all!
The dauntless Air. Gump plunged

I what he would to diminish the huge
j total, the interest piled up faster

Donald B. Simpson Fills Place of Maude I. Kerns
As Head of Normal Arts Department
The making of textile designs
which have their origin in drawings
of modernistic buildings is the pres
ent occupation of the sophomore’
class in design, under Donald B.
Simpson, new instructor in normal
arts. Such modernistic interpreta
tions in fabrics arc very popular
now, Mr. Simpson said.
Mr. Simpson is taking the place
of Maude I. Kerns, head of the de
partment of normal arts of tho
school of architecture and allied,
arts, who is- on a leave of absence
from the University.
During the fall term, under Miss
Kerns, the class received a histori
cal basis for the work that they are
doing this term, and their present
work is preparatory toward batik,
which they will, take up spring
term, Mr. Simpson explained.
“I am trying to give them some
thing that hasn’t been done be
fore,” he said, “in introducing
some modern applications into their
program. “Tho work is valuable,
practically, and different as well.
In Oregon, there are a number of
textile and woolen mills. In the
manufacture of cloth, the princi
ples of design must be applied, and
the chances are that sonic of these
students will fill such technical'posi
tions. Window cretonne, chintz,
challis, and all such materials are
following the futuristic trend which
we are trying to carry out.

Today’s question: What do you
think about the ruling affecting

Wilbur Hayden, assistant in bac
teriology—"The first thing I think
of is the inevitable cheapening of
living costs to the student. It. will
result in a greater unity among the
students, especially unaffiliated
men, at the present time.”
Sherwood Head, jqnior in history
—“I think it is very foolish. Men
I are on their owii more than women
J a! all times and ought to be capable
i of earing for themselves. You don't
‘ find the ruling jn Washington or
j < ulifornia universities.”
Lawrence Mitehelmoie, junior in
j journalism—“ 1 think it is a good
idea. i. don’t see why when living
i ill a hall, that way, they coulda't
j get acquainted as easily as any
j ether place.”
| Zoija (Jail, senior in zoology—“I
I-don’t think they should have any
' such ruling as that. If you put the

he is at a disadvantage through the

Don Moo, freshman in economics
—"I think there are advantages on
1 both sides. Providing conditions'

is proper to live both in the hall

to metal work, and as soon as I
get my olasses -well started, I intend :
to do some original studies along
these lines.”
Mr. Simpson studied at the Uni
versity of Washington under Helen
N. Rhodes, who preceded Miss
Kerns at the University of Oregon.
There he received his B.A. degree
in June, 1926. A year later he ob
tained his M.A. in Bine Arts from
the Teachers’ College of Columbia
University, New York. While he
attended school at Columbia, Mr.
Simpson taught art in the Hamilton
Orange private school in the city,
where, he said, Alexander Hamil
ton lived and kept his horses in the
old days.
Mr. Simpson has an unusual book
devoted to French applications of
modern expression in decorative !
art, which contains many striking I
photographs of room decoration, tex- :
tile designs, book covers, and such, j
“This is just the sort of thing I ,
like,” he said.
In addition to the sophomore
class, Mr. Simpson teaches the fresh
man design class and a group in
pedagogy. ■ The freshman class is
making copies of historical work,
and the class in pedagogy is learn
ing to teach art.
“I find Oregon a very pleasant
1 place to teach,” said Mr. Simpson.
There is a more democratic spirit
| here than at the University of
Washington.”
