    High Scholarship Indicates
Future Success Says Visitor
William Ferguson, Stanford Psychology Student,
Expresses Views Concerning Study
Of Vocations and Hobbies
By RUFUS KIMBALL
A good banker, if he takes up golf, is apt to be a good golfer.
Similarly, university students who do well in their scholastic work
and get good grades, as a general rule, are those who make them
selves known in campus activities. Accomplishment in one line almost
always carries with it a proportionate degree of accomplishment in
the other.
, These theories form the basis of an extensive research into the
relationship between vocations and hobbies, a study which has been
begun at Stanford university this spring by William Ferguson, an ad
vanced student in psychology there. Ferguson is visiting on the Ore
gon campus over Junior Week-1
end. Yesterday he conferred with
Dr. Howard R. Taylor, head of the
personnel bureau, on methods of
compiling data for the survey.
“The energy and ability which
carry a man to the top in business
or in scholarship,” Ferguson said,
“generally bring him success in
whatever outside activities he may
go in for in his leisure time. More
over, the type of activities or hob
bies indulged in usually parallels
pretty closely the individual's vo
cational capacities.”
Ferguson expressed a belief
that among university graduates
most outside interests can be
traced to their college careers.
Education and early training are
among the chief factors taken into
consideration in the questionnaire
which he is preparing, he ex
plained. “Interests which a stu
dent fails to acquire in college,”
he said, “are seldom picked up
after graduation.”
Good grades in college? accord
ing to Ferguson, are a pretty reli
able indication of success in later
life.

TLi: is the fourth of a scries
of int views on deferred pledg
ing n.) in connection with the
K:w r .d pledging poll.
By KALPH DAVID
The greatest advantage of the
deferred pledging system is that
it places freshmen in such a posi
tion that it is strictly up to them
as to whether they make good and
survive the first year or not, ac
cording to Pete Heiser, student at
Stanford university, who is visit
ing on the campus this v/eek.
“The freshman year in the dorm
is the best one in a man's univer
sity career, and the men that sur
vive this year are the ones that
are worth while. In the dormitory
a man is wholly on his own. There
is no one to care if he cuts a class
or flunks an exam. The man soon
realizes his responsibility and if
he has the stuff in him he im
mediately gets to work," said Mr.
Heiser.
"When the rushing period ar
rives fraternities know what men
they want and do not have to gam
ble on their ability to make good,"
i said the Stanford men, who is
rushing chairman of his frater
nity. The freshman, at the same
time, is more valuable to the fra
ternity because of his large ac
quaintance among other freshmen,
many of whom pledged other
houses than his own or preferred
to remain in the dormitory, and
because he has gained initiative
and a sense of his responsibility to
make good for his own sake as
well as for the fraternity.
“Instead of looking at deferred
pledging from an entirely selfish
standpoint, fraternity men should
also look at it as benefitting the
freshman. From my own exper
ience as a freshman in a dormi
- tory I realize how much it meant
to be placed so completely on my
own. I believe that first year was
worth more to me than any other."
Pledging at Stanford is deferred
until the first part of the spring
quarter, explained Mr. Heiser. The
rush session is divided into two
l periods. The first period lasts for
10 days and fraternities are al
lowed one date with the rushees
during that time. During the sec
ond period of five days the rushees
may -date as many times as they
arc asked by the fraternities. The
last day of the second period is
preference night and the freshman

! makes his choice then. No frater
nity may ask a man to pledge un
til that time.
Although there are infractions
of the rushing rules, and these
sometimes cause ill-feeling be
tween fraternities, the general ad
vantage of deferred pledging both
to the freshman and the fratern
ity is recognized at Stanford, con
cluded Mr. Heiser.
HALL FITS IN WITH
HIS BUSINESS SLOGAN
(Continued from Tape One)
sentative for Corbett, for the vote
of the students.
As he sat there, looking for all
the world as if he was about to
sign a contract, or dictate a let
ter, I remembered I had read in
some of his circular material his
campaign slogan, “A business ex
ecutive for our state executive.”
He was speaking deliberately, w'ith
precision and conviction. He said
, that he greatly favored the re
i organization of the state govern
ment into a cabinet system similar
to that of the federal government.
His argument was that it would
be businesslike.
“It wouldn't, though, affect very
j much the function of the state
; board of higher education. It
would remain practically un
; changed.” He had apparently eon
I sidered all of the technicalities and
wide-reaching effects of such a
! change, because he talked for
| some time on just how the legis
I lature would have to function and
| what would happen to the many
j state boards and commissions. He
had all the information on tap.
It is not enough to say of
Charles Hall that he is a business
executive, though. He is thor
i oughly a gentleman, and it is the
j natural thing to like him. Talk
j ing with him, you could guess, if
you did not already know, that
he has a long list of activities
and accomplishments behind him.
