The Oregon Daily Emerald, official publication of the Associated Students of the
University of Oregon, Eugene, issued daily except Sunday and Monday, during the
college year. MtinlxT of the Pacific Intercollegiate Press. Entered in the postoffice. at
Eugene, Oregon, as second class matter. Subscription rates, $2.50 a year. Advertising
rates upon application. Phone, Manager* Office, Locai 214; residence, 324.
SHORT time ago two sophomores in the University addressed
A a letter to the editor of the Emerald pleading against the in
capacities of a certain professor on the campus. They declared that
he knew little more than the students and was incapable of instruct
ing a class as a professor should. Tf this is right, we greatly regret
that we have men of this sort on the faculty of the University of
However, it is believed that this professor, whoever he may be,
is fully qualified to teach the English course. No doubt he is fully
aware of the growth in education methods and allows himself to
enter into discussion with the class, work with the individuals, and
act as the axis around which revolve the workings of the class rather
than the trainer who wields the whip. This is in direct line with
an idea brought to light recently in the Emerald.
As to the rhetoric of this professor before I lie class we cannot
speak. A slight slip or two may have caused the comment by the
two correspondents. We dare to say that the attitude in classroom
was not racy or collegiate, but bordering on the line of the favored
method of modern education. » «
Perhaps students fail to realize the value of personal contacts
with classroom instructors, believe it handshaking, and prefer to be
retiring and omit the advantages of occasional conferences. Students
must know their professors that they may grasp better their methods
of instruction and that the educators may better learn the propensi
ties of the students.
As the Michigan State News recently said, “Students often
times find that the most starched and stiff teacher develops into a
very human person after a few minutes’ personal conversation. Far
too many students neglect to become acquainted with their instruc
tors through this route even going so far as to have a face-to-face
talk with them during a whole term."
In direct line with this we add that if is the duty of every
instructor on the campus of ttie University of Oregon to make an
effort to know his students personally. He, as many of them do,
should welcome conferences, invite friendship, and adopt a coopera
tive attitude. Students feel deserving of it—instructors are re
warded for it.

To Hear Great Men
KEGON students will gather in McArthur court this morning to
pay homage to the University and those high ideals for which
it stands at the nineteenth annual Pledge Day assembly. Leaders of
the state in three distinct fields will be present to voice their opinions
of what constitutes the duty of a member of the student body toward
the institution which is furnishing him with the necessary education
to allow him to successfully cope with the problems of life.
Governor A. W. Norblad, as the highest executive of the state,
will administer the pledge and B. K. Irvine, editor of the Oregon
Daily Journal, will deliver the principal address of the day. Dr.
Arnold Bennett Hall, president of the University, will preside at the
assembly.
Through the many years of the existence of the custom, it has
come to be one of the most inspiring traditions of modern college
life. The Oregon Pledge is an acknowledgment of the duties of each
and every student to his state and University.
In the bustle of daily campus life few students find time to really
appreciate the great opportunity they are enjoying that of obtain
ing a college education. Every member of the student body is among
a favored few as the great majority of young men and women never
have the opportunity to obtain higher education.
Attendance at the Pledge Day assembly is not compulsory but
every student, no matter how busy he might be, should do his duty
and attend the meeting'. It is little enough to do to spend an hour
a year at the assembly in return for the great opportunities which
arc afforded the students at Oregon by the people of the state and
the board of higher education.
Be at MeArtnur court at 10 o'clock this morning and help make
this Pledge Day the most impressive ever held on the campus. Head
over the Oregon Pledge and ask yourself if you are doing your best
to live up to the high ideals which il symbolizes.

OREGON UNAFFECTED
BY SLUMP IN WOOL
(Continued from Page One)
to be a valuable asset to the in
dustry in this state.
From the marketing standpoint
there is still room for considerable
expansion, not only in markets
elsewhere, but in the Pacific coast
area, Mr. Burrell says. With less
than one half of the yarn used by
the knitting mills of the coast
actually made here, and a much
smaller proportion of woolen cloth
ing made in this area, there is an
unusual opportunity for expansion
in these lines, it is pointed out.
Oregon mills are also now sup
plying a large quantity of robes,
Indian blankets and other special
ties for which the demand in the
past few years has not decreased,
the bulletin says. An increase in
production in these products would
be profitable in Oregon, it is be
lieved.
Since 1919 the output of the
woolen industry in Oregon has in
creased by 100 per cent, while in
the United States as a whole the
increase has been less than one
per cent. A decline in workers in
the United States from 168,772 in
1909 to 154, 361 in 1927 is shown,
while in Oregon the number
showed a healthy condition.
The woolen industry is one of
the pioneer manufactures of Ore
gon. The Willamette Woolen Man
ufacturing company began opera
tions in Salem in 1857. The Linn
County Woolen mill opened in
Brownsville in 1861, and in 1862
the Oregon City Woolen Manufac
turing company was organized.

They shut the door on hybrid styles
Quantity production of equipment lias long
been practiced by the telephone industry.
Telephone designers years ago shut the door
on many hybrid styles—seeking first to work
out instruments which could best transmit the
voice, then making these few types in great
quantities.
This standardization made possible concen
trated study of manufacturing processes, and
steady improvement of them. For example, the
production of 15,000,000 switchboard lamps a
year, all of one type, led to the development
of a highly special machine which does in a
few minutes what once took an hour.
Manufacturing engineers, with their early
start in applying these ideas, have been able to
develop methods which in many cases have be
come industrial models. The opportunity is there!
