The organization’s activity became prominent during the spring vacation period when programs were presented in various schools and communities in the state. The heavy duties of the group were in summer vacation when hun dreds of high school graduates were interviewed. The prep school alum ni were aided in theft problems. Throughout the summer, Hubbs per sonally directed the campaign from his office in Eugene. The summer drive was wound up when Hubbs and Joe McKeown, president of the student body, took a trip around the state in the interests of the Uni versity, making speeches and inter viewing University alumni at vari ous points on their itinerary. Wide Publicity Given The work continued after school opened the fall term With Hubbs in charge of the freshman week pro gram. State-wide publicity was given the work of the committee whose work attracted attention wherever its meinbers functioned. Greater Ore gon night was the occasion for many special programs in theaters, and for many dances which were attended by college students as well as high school folks. “Marked efficiency was displayed by the directorate during its whole year of activity,” stated Hubbs in commenting upon the results of the committee’s work, “and I am indeed gratified at the results shown by the workers as a whole. The com mittee this year has shown a won derful spirit of cooperation, and I feel that there is no reason why the coming vacation campaign should not he a success with such a willing group of workers.” •Hubbs is now at work completing a, comprehensive report on the com plete" details of tlie. work performed by the Greater Oregon committee, and expects to have the data ready in time to lie presented to the next chairman who will be named some ! time in February. Dr. Hall Gives Praise ■'“I am indeed proud of the work being done by the Greater Oregon committee the past year and espe cially the manner in which the group lias swelled the university registration and at the same time, favored the university with a high type of students,” stated Amobt Bennett Hall, president of the uni versity, who is ardent supporter J of the Greater Oregon movement. “I want at this time to thank personally the directors and the large number of committee workers for their untiring efforts to make the past campaign what we consider to be the most successful ever. The j registration figures for the past | term indicate that the Greater Ore gon committee has functioned prop j erly. “I. am heartily in favor of having j the work continued, and the univer 1 sity is always willing to lend what ever aid possible to this enterpris ing group of workers. “Not too much in the way of praise can he said in appreciation of the services rendered by Konald llubbs, the chairman, who spent ever so much of his time personally directing the forces at work in this constructive organization.” Results Noticed The results of the work performed by the committee are well noticed in the manner in which the registra tion figures jumped for the fall term, according to Earl M. Pallett, registrar. Where before the aver age increase for each fall term of the preceding year has been about 50, the increase for the fall term, 1_28, over the same period in 1927 is 258.
