    Medford Men
To Enroll
At Oregon
Boys Decide to Follow
Colli son to Web foot
School Next Season
By JOE PIGNEY
Pi'ink Cnllison, Medford high
corudi who comes to Oregon next
toll ns head frosh coach, is very
nearly an automatic member of the
Greater Oregon committee. At least,
he has ashamed u duty which us
ually is assigned to the committee,
the job is soliciting the state for
Prospective members of the Univer
sity of Oregon student body. ,
Brink didn’t, realize this would
be part of his job when he decided
to accept the university’s offer, lie
doesn’t know it yet—it’s just one
of t hose things that “happen.”
Whether athletes throughout the
y state will hi1 attracted to Oregon
because Oallison will be the frosh
mentor, remains to be seen. But at
any rate, at least eight members of
the Medford high school athletic
teams have decided to continue
their work under Oallison when he
comes to Oregon.
The truth of the ability of Med
ford’s athletes has been proven in
the large number of championships
won since Oallison began coaching
there immediately after his gradua
tion from Oregon in 192.'!. Football,
basketball and baseball titles have
become a common thing at the
Southern Oregon high school.
Fight members of Medford’s
championship winning football team
will follow Oallison to Oregon, and
try for positions on the freshman
team next fall. Of these eight foot
ball players arc four members of
this year’s state champion basket
ball team.
The boys graduate from high
school this June, and have pledged
themselves “to go wherever Brink
goes.” They are Bernard and Jack
Hughes, William Morgan, Alfred
A Stochr, and Fred McDonald, lines
men; A1 Melvin, Clifton Garnett
and Clifford Moore, backs.
The Hughes brothers have a log
ging contract in Klamath county,
and, along with several of their
team mates, will work there to keep
in condition over the summer.
Melvin, Morgan, Garnett and Mc
Donald were the members of this
year’s state champion hoop team.
What sort of football will Calli
son bring to the frosh team? Here
is what Oallison says he will do:
“It has been stated in the press
that 1 would be allowed to use my
own coaching system at the Univer
sity of Oregon. This is only partly
true. I will not use any system that
conflicts with the established sys
tem at the university.
“The freshman teams are always
a sort of laboratory where new ideas
are worked out. I regret leaving
Medford but the university offers
a larger field and greater oppor
tunities and prestige.”
Oallison will have a. difficult time
continuing the success of Bill Itein
hnrt, former frosh coach. Bill’s
football teams have made an excel
lent showing since he began coach
ing here in 11)114. Beinhart has won
the majority of his games, and lost
the others in close encounters.
Hasty Marriages
Usually Failures
Affirms Parsons
Long Courtships Advisable
Gives People Chance to
Prepare Selves
'Rising divorce rates in America
were blamed on hasty courtship and
marriage of men and women of to
day in a talk given by Dr. Philip
A. Parsons, dean of the school of
sociology, to a group of students tit
Westminster house Sunday.
Long courtships, today thought of
as “rustic,” were a great aid to
successful marriage because it gave
the young people a Letter chance to
fit themselves for wedded lft'e and
adjust themselves to each other, Dr.
Parsons said.
y Put the “rustic” has disappeared
with tlie influx of speed into mod
ern life, autos and radios.
“ Lives of young people today are
so full of activities that their court
ships are shortened. Long ‘puppy
loves’ are a thing of the past.
“Young people do not have the
old folks around to supervise them
so much any more. This has re
moved the open and aboveboard
courting, making it now more clan
destine.
“Higher education comes at a
time when youth should be thinking

Appearance to Close Tour
Of Many Seasons
“ Perfection . . . the Flonyalcy Quar

tribute the Boston Transcript paid
to the' string ensemble which will
play under the auspices of the as
sociated students, at McArthur
court, Saturday, April 1.1th, at 8:15
p. in. ‘Three of the members, Adolfo
Betti, Alfred Poehon, and Iwan
D’Archnmbeau, have worked to
gether since the formation of
the quartet, and combined with
Nicholas Moldavan, viola, have
given hundreds of chamber-music
concerts, praised especially for their
ability “to submerge all individual
contributions into a practically per
fect single instrument.”
The quartet’s appearance Satur
day evening will be one of the last
in the series which will terminate
its career at the close of the season
1918-29, its twenty-fifth anniver
sary.
Retiring at the zenith of its suc

American cities and educational in

Washington Co-op
Manager Visits
Campus Store
Harvard Has Largest and
Oldest in Country; Called
‘Coop’ by Students
Harvard, t.lio oldest American
university, 1ms tlie oldest anil larg
est co-op in the country,, according
to .Tames E. McRae, manager of the
University of Washington co-op, who
visited the Oregon store yesterday
on his way to Eos Angeles, where
he will attend the third annual con
ference of the western states divi
sion of the College Bookstores’ as
sociation.
‘‘Tlie store at Harvard, familiarly
called the “Coop” by the students
there, has been in existence over
80 .years,” said McRae. Today it
is housed in a five story building
which cost $.'i00,000 to construct,
and does an annual business of $1,
250,000 in gross receipts. It main
tains a student tailoring shop which
employs 15 tailors, sells furniture,
groceries, hardware, automobiles
and accessories in addition to the
lines which are handled by the or
dinary college Co-op.”
McRae is president of tlie wes
tern division of the bookstores’ as
sociation, and is considered an au
thority on college stores, according
to Marion McClain, manager of tlx
Oregon store.
“I like your store here at Oregon
very much,” said McRae. “It has
character—an intimate appearance
of being used which is lacking in
most stores of its type.”
McRae has made two fof.rs of
outstanding co-ops throughout tlie
country, and is planning to make
another this spring. He’ believes
that the stores of Pacific coast
schools are better than in any
other section of the country.
“A few of the eastern schools
have fine stores,” he said, “but I
believe that those in the west are
the most efficient and progressive
in tlie country.”

Education Head Studies
Use of Praetice Teaching
In Schools
Henry D. Sheldon, dean of the
school of edlucatiom, returned tof
the campus Saturday from a week’s
trip to California cities, which lie
took with H. K. Goold, superinten
dent of Eugeue schools. The pur
pose of the flip was to visit the
larger educational schools of Cali
fornia and to investigate the meth
ods which they use to give advanc
ed students practice teaching work
ill the public schools.
“The school of education at Ore
gon is going to offer a four year
course for teachers in the elemen
tary grades beginning next fall,”
Dean Sheldon said, “and if we are
to make this course worth while we
must have some means of offering
the students supervised practice
work at actual teaching. We have
no grammar school corresponding to
the University high school, and find
that we must make some readjust
ment of the relations of the univer
sity with the city school system
in order to offer practice teaching
in the grammar schools.”
The University of California has
one of the Inst equipped and or
ganized schools of education in tin
country, according to Sheldon. The
two men also visited Stanford uni
versity and the state teachers’ col
leges at San Francisco and San
Jose.
