Robert Sharp Bean means more to the University than the history of his life or of the high position which he held in the fulfillment of Oregon’s statehood. He represents today, as he did before his death, that vigor, those high ideals, and that self reliance which his life impressed upon the University and the state. While his body lies buried at Portland, his memory will be enriched as the years pass by with the school of which he was both a graduate and a director. So it is true that there is no shadow on the Oregon campus. The records and the position of Judge Bean testify to his eminently keen mind and to the remarkable clarity of his deci sions. Yet the University knows him as more than judge. Born 1854, and graduating from the University with the first class, Robert Sharp Bean typifies well the pioneer successful striving for future common benefit. His long period of membership on the board of regents gave him ample opportunity to shape the University's growth. He took that opportunity. To those familiar with that span of years which was marked by the University's struggle for existence, then gradual emer gence into a place of educational importance and confidence in Oregon public opinion, Judge Bean’s service to his University will be gratefully remembered as one of patience and scholarly confidence that in the end the institution would forge ahead as merit of its work indicated. So said an alumnus familiar with Robert Sharp Bean’s regency in those years. Yet it is a cold record of facts indeed, no matter how glo rious the rise behind it, which places in the dead past all of his achievements. Just as his work on the state and federal benches cannot be measured alone in terms of individual cases, but also in the precedent and universal wisdom of his decisions— just so is this most distinguished alumnus of the University re markable in the degree to which his dead hand guides the present. Not only in the hearts of those who knew him as a kindly and excellent friend, but also in the lives of those who knew him not, is his work perpetuated. A Pleasant Visit 'T'HAT the eleventh .annual high school conference has offered a pleasant week-end, an entertaining visit, and many prof itable sessions, is the Emerald's sincere wish to each delegate. May you return to your homes with a degree, small or large, of profit from the words you have heard from those who are experienced in your desired future. Students! The basketball team, whether it won or lost, de serves many messages of support. Send them today the New Washington hotel. Few people become wholly satisfied that is why improve ments are constantly being made nevertheless we congratulate the registration officials for the increased ease in entering the University. Physical E«l Classes To Receive New Equipment New equipment consisting of a pSuotrope electric phonograph, a .driving net, and putting green, has been received by the physical edu cation department in the last week. The phonograph will be utilized in the tap dancing sections of the pro fessional gym classes, while the golf equipment has been placed in charge of Art Ireland, golf instruc tor. The net and green have been in stalled at the north end of the main gym floor, and are open to any students when classes are not prac ticing upon them.

The out look to tlie followers of Ghandi seemed very dark, but the revolt of the 300,0U0,000 people of India will continue for many years to come,” he declared. Conference To Be Held in 103» He did not find the prospect for immediate future di.srmamcut progianm bright. ^ "The next disarmament confer ence, instead of being ended in ! 1031, bus been postponed until | 1032 for no other reason than that some countries want to evade it, The tangible results of the prepar atory disarmament conference are very small. The same is true of economic disarmament. Jn spite of the movement in H)2< to curtail increasing tariffs, there has been a | veritable mushroom growth of the protective tariff in United States, China, Italy, and other countries. Dr. Mez was impressed by the J manner in which one particular i idea or movement may spread si | multaneously to all nations. “In ! exactly the same way that many I American towns have ‘buy at home’ campaigns, cities in France.

Fascism Still Strong “Fascism is still strong in Italy, but the hold of fascism over the people is slipping.

Initiating a new policy this year, no extra copies will be or dered f ora the printers, and consequently there will be no books for sale at the time of dis tribution, Jackson stated.

However, the government administration in Italian cities is admirable. “In the Dutch East Indies, the population is not suffering so much because nature provides rice and tropical food in sufficient abund ance. The island of Java, in length not greater than the distance from Portland to San Francisco and from 200 to 220 miles in width, now counts 50,000,000 inhabitants. In less than a century the population has increased tenfold, largely ow ing to the rubber industry and the efficient development' of colonial produce such as rice, coffee, ba nanas, and spices under the able administration of the Dutch colo nizers."

SIX CUPS WILL BE GIVEN BEST PAPERS (Continued from Page One) man, managing editor of the Eu gene Register-Guard; Robert C. Hall, Arne G. Rae, and George Godfrey , of the University school of journalism. It was declared last night by the judges that difficulty was being encountered in choosing the winners, so close is this year’s competition. One of the best dis plays entered during the three years’ existence of the contest. Officers To Be Chosen Officers for next year's confer ence will be elected following the naming of the cup winners, bring ing the conference to a close. Dean Eric W. Allen, of the Uni versity school of journalism, will address the press conference on the subject, “What Can the High School Paper Do for Che-Student and the School;” and the editor of the Roseburg News-Review, Harris Ellsworth, will discuss, “Handling the News.” A question box will follow the talks. "The best newspaper,” Mr. Tug man, of the Eugene Register Guard, said at yesterday’s press session, “is one that does what it knows to be right. It commands the respect of the people, whether they agree with its policy or not. The newspaper must be friendly, fair, understanding, and patient; and, above all, must pursue a fear less news policy.” “Within the bounds of common decency and respect, the students should be allowed to say anything they think about the faculty or anybody else," the speaker said. "Every paper should be self-sup porting,” he asserted, “and if your high school paper cannot pay its own way it should go out of exist ence. High school advertising can be sold and does not have to be begged. If your editorial policy PLUMBING Edw. J. Ycnne Plumbing Co. GENERAL REPAIR WORK A SPECIALTY Phone 18*4 11th & Oak stands on its own feet, if your ad vertising solicitors know how to sell space to the merchants of your town, you are on the road to be coming a ^strong paper.” The press conference separated into four groups: editors of news papers, managers of newspapers, editors of annuals and managers of annuals, each group attending only those meetings which applied to them. Each group was furnish ed with speakers especially quali fied to answer questions and solve its problems. Mr. Turnbull, professor in jour nalism at the University, delivered an address in which he stressed the importance of accuracy and defin iteness at the afternoon session. Robert C. Hall, superintendent of the University Press, talked on .“Makeup and the Mechanical End of the Newspaper,” and Jack Burke, former sports editor of the Emerald, talked about the place and the importance of sports in the paper. Kay Yasue, Hood River high school, spoke of the problems of the high school newspaper. The newspaper managers were entertained by speakers wlio re ferred to the business end of the paper and went about finding ways and means of putting the paper on a paying basis. Arne G. Rae, field manager of the Oregon State Editorial associa tion; W. F. G. Thacher, of the school of journalism, and Tony Pe terson, business manager of the Emerald, each talked on the busi ness of managing a paper. Much the same type ot program .was presented to the group of year !' book managers by H. B. Robinson, of the West Coast Engraving com pany, Portland; Lester McDonald, ^former editor of the Oregana, and Allen Rinehart, of the Beaver En | graving company, Portland. Fi i nancing the annual, choosing as j sistants, and cooperation with ; printers were the main topics un der discussion. The group of annur 1 editors took up the problems of editing the an nual which were discussed by For | est Mills, of Grant high, Portland; j Josephine Waffle, of Astoria high; ; William Winter, of Hicks-Chatten, | Portland engravers; and Thomas I Chapman of Koke-Chapman, Eu gene printers. Getting the annual out on time was stated to be the biggest problem of the annual edi “tor. and all of the talks referred i to different means by which it is | possible to deal adequately with [that problem.
