To raise the money necessary
to car^ on its work and also ac
quaint parents, alumni, and pros
pective students with the relig
ious work which it does at the
•state universities is the double
purpose of a campaign for $30,000
to be conducted by the Westmin
ster Foundation of the state dur
ing the week before Thanksgiving,
according to word received from
Max Adams, student pastor on the
campus.
Organized in 1920
The Westminster Foundation
was organized in 1920 in the state
of Oregon for the purpose of de
veloping the religious life of the
students in the state universities.
It is the contribution of the Pres
byterian church to the educational
program of the state. During the
eight years of its existence the
Foundation has invested $51,000
in properties and maintained a
student pastor at the state univer
sity as well as the university. Rev.
Monroe G. Everett occupies that
position at Corvalli3, and Max
Adams is the local pastor.
The funds to be raised by the
campaign are necessary to raise
the debts on the Westminster
house property both at Eugene and
Corvallis, and for the running ex
penses for the coming two years,
according to Mr. Adams.
Banquet Planned
To acquaint a delegation of
ministers and campaign chairmen
from all the cities in the Willam
ette valley with the physical
equipment and the work of the
Westminster houses and to out
line the program for this campaign
a banquet will be held Friday eve
ning at the home of the student
pastor. Presiding will be Paul T.
Shaw, Portland, chairman of the
campaign committee. About fifty
men are expected for this affair.
The local student organization
will be represented by Carl Moore
and John Dodds.
Principal speakers at the ban
quet will be Dr. William Jasper
Kerr, president of Oregon State
college, and President Arnold
Bennett Hall, who will talk on the
relationship of religious work on
the campuses of the universities.
Hoskins to Direct
Brice W. Hoskins, who has had
several years experience with the
San Francisco Community Chest
in raising their annual budget of
$2,500,000, has been employed as
director of the campaign, and he
will be here Friday to explain the
work to be done to the visiting
delegates. Most of the solicitation
will be done through Presbyterian
churches in the state.
Dr. Harold Leonard Bowman of
Portland, is president of the
Foundation. O. L. Price, J. J.
Ross, Dr. William Jasper Kerr,
Karl Onthank, and other men
prominent in business and educa
tional circles in the state are
trustees of the Foundation.
A famous explorer tells us that
one of the fastest creatures on
earth is a lion in the last 100
yards of its charge upon an en
emy. That's one statement we’ll
never attempt to prove for our
selves.

IT THE NEW IIEILIG—
A1 Jolson is popular in Eugene
his week. First we had him in
'The Jazz Singer” and now he
lomes to delight his audiences
vith his newest and many say his
>est hit, “Say It With Songs."
Vith him is Davy Lee, Jolson's
ittle pal. Remember Sonny Boy ?
tT THE COLONIAL—
Thrills, sensations, adventures
n a great city’s underworld mark
he swift movement of “While the
lity Sleeps,” a Lon Chaney pic
ure now appearing at the Co
onial.
IT THE STATE—
“The Jazz Singer” will remain
t the State for another day to
e followed Friday by "The
Iquall.”
iT THE REX—
“Side Street,” with the three
| Moore brothers, now at the Re*
: theater, contains some very tense
l and highly dramatic moments,
iwhen a notorious bootlegger chief
i finds he has ordered his gang to
| murder a plain clothes man who
turns out to be his own brother.
AT THE MCDONALD—
The romantic-minded, and what
co.ed isn't, will thrill to John Gil
bert’s portrayal of the dashing
young Viennese officer in "His
Glorious Night."
