    Huge Slide and Film Service
Is Maintained, by University
Do you know that, the Univer
sity extension division operates in
its busy, crowded quarters a pub
lic service in the field of visual
aids to instruction, generally
known as the visual instruction
service? Do you know that in ad
dition to various types of stereop
ticans and a 16 mm. motion pic
ture projector kept on hand for
demonstration before interested
individuals or organizations, the
visual instruction service main
tains a library of stereoptican
glass slides and film slides, or still
films, totalling about 215,000 indi
vidual pictures—sets of small
specimens of rocks, minerals and
ores, and microscopic slides in
botany and zoology?.
T^he glass slide library consists
of 260 sets in geography, history,
civics, literature, science, and the
industries, besides a large number
of individual slides from which
Selections may be made singly or
in groups in the fields of famous
paintings, sculptures, and carvings.
More than 250 rolls of still film
pictures depict the development of
transportation, lessons in health,
physical education, nature study,
subjects in the primary grades,
Biblical history and parables, and
a series of general science topics.
The rock, mineral and ore speci
mens were arranged by the Uni
versity department of geology

especially for the use of high
school classes in geology, physical
geography and general science.
The sets may be borrowed either
separately or together. The mi
croscopic slides were made up by
the University department of biol
ogy also for use in the high
schools.
The extension division issues
a catalogue listing all of these un
! der the several topics, and indi
I eating the rules and regulations
| under which materials are loaned.
I An annual service fee of $2 is
j charged each off-campus user in
Oregon, while the fee is doubled
for out-of-state patrons. The cost
of 'transportation must also be
paid.
The annual report of 1930 shows
that schools, churches, clubs, and
other institutions in 218 commun
ities of 33 counties of Oregon and
nine communities Washington,
Idaho and Nevada made use of
materials from the visual instruc
tion service. Reports from the
various organizations indicate that
the classes and gatherings making
use of this service aggregated
more than 183,000 people during
the year.
Until recent years, the teachers
of Oregon used the stereoptican
slides chiefly for the purpose of
entertainment. Today, teachers
are finding that projected pictures,
when properly presented, are po
tent aids in classroom learning,
and are using them more and
more, a few pictures at a time, to
illustrate and vivify subject mat
ter. A number of teachers plan
their work months ahead and
make reservation of the particu
lar sets or individual slides for
the time they will need them.
Many of these slides are useful
in the field of college work. While
a few of the members of the Uni
versity faculty have used them
effectively in their class work, it
may be that there are other in- j
structors who have not been
aware that this service is avail
able for their use on the campus
without cost.
SOCIAL WORKER WILL

(Continued from Pope One)
intp two fields urban and rural.
[Urban social science requires much
specialized work, whereas the
worker in rural districts must
combine knowledge of how to han
dle all sorts of problems. Applied
social science in Portland is han
dled under the urban system, with
many divisions of the work. That,
in Eugene involves the whole
county, and many' of the problems
arising come from rural districts.

Lighted Candle
Amuses Campus.
| JJIOGEVES, we know, carried
n lighted lantern in broad
i daylight in liis search for an
! honest man. But just why Ben
i Vitou, sophomore in pre-medies,
j should take to carrying a light
: ed candle down the walk from
V'lllard to Oregon at 10 a. m.
was a mystery to passershy.
Speculation ran wild—he had
gotten up for his eight o'clock,
dressed by candle-light, and ab
sently left the house with the
candle instead of his hooks. Me
might he impcrsonutnig a
Christmas tree. The cold weath
er might have been too much
for him so that he enjoyed the
warmth of the candle. It is in
teresting to note that no one
suggested that he was search
ing for that now almost extinct
species—the honest man.
When he finally reached Ore
gon hall, however, the mystery
was solved. In front stood a
grim officer of the German club.
Mr. Vitou was merely undergo
ing the agonies of initiation.

Alpha Kappa Psi
Plans Research
Survey of B. A. School To
Be Proposed
“What can the business ad ma

should business ad majors take?”
These will be two of the questions
to be included in a survey of the
business ad school courses to be
proposed by Alpha Kappa Psi,
national professional commerce
fraternity, at its regular monthly
business meeting at the College
Side Inn today.
According to Roy Wilkinson,
president of the chapter, the group
will decide upon a plan of carry
ing out a research project which
will aim to discover just what at

have toward their various classes.
SOUTH ▼
▼AMERICA
As Seen by Dr. Smith
I
J
“Chile is the most progressive
country in South America in my
opinion,” said Dr. Warren D.
Smith, professor of geology, in the
fifth of his series of ten lectures
on “A Visit to South America”
given last night at Condon hall.
The lectures by Dr. Smith, who
has just returned from an extend
ed visit to the southern continent,
are presented under the auspices
of the University extension di
vision.
“Chile is 3000 miles long and 90
miles wide. It is divided into three
distinct sections, the north being
mainly desert land, the central
part being used for farm land, and
the south filled with beautiful
scenery, rugged, snow-capped, vol
canic peaks, coastal fiords, and
thousands of little lakes.
“The Chilean coast is more act
ive in earthquakes than any other
place on the globe. They are often
very severe, one of a few years
ago causing the coast to rise four
feet. Most of the people live in
adobe houses, with tile roofs, so
that when an earthquake hits, the
tiles become like bullets.
“There are abundant resources
in Chile. If you have any Chilean
bonds, hang on to them, for they
are a sound investment. Chile, for
example, is the second greatest
copper producer in the world, and
it is only a matter of time before
they will push the United States
out of first place. All of the large
copper mines in Chile are owned
by Americans.
“For many years Chile produced
95 per cent of the world's nitrates,
but due to recently discovered
methods of procuring nitrates from
the air, they are not as strong in
this field today. The nitrate com
panies have consolidated so as to
regain their old position. The fin
est coal deposits in South America
are found in Chile.
“The forests of southern Chile
are very large, and their pine is
taking away a great deal of the
South American trade from the
United States. They are making
great strides in fruit culture. Rep
resentatives have been sent up to
our Pacific oast to study the fruit
business here. There are almost
unlimited water power resources
in Chile, and some manufacturing
is done.
“One of the strong points of the
Chilean government is their state
police, the Carboneros. These men
are under orders of the president
and in case of an attempted up
rising are there quickly to nip it
in the bud. Their task is easy, as
they are the only persons allowed
to carry firearms in the country.

Fifty Seniors Lack
Oregana Pictures
TJMFTY members of the class ot
1931 have failed to have
their senior pictures taken for
the 1931 Oregana. So that the
senior section can be complete,
special arrangements have been
made with the Kennell-Ellis stu
dio for all seniors who have not
had their cap and gown pictures
taken to do so tomorrow and
Saturday, it was announced Sat
urday by Henrietta Steinke, edi
tor.
Miss Steinke urged that every
senior who did not have his pic
ture taken last term make a
special effort to do so on one of
these days. Two pages have
been held up in the hook to al
low these seniors to appear in
the annual and it is hoped that
all fifty of them will avail them
selves of the opportunity.

and Marlene Dietrich in ‘‘The
Blue Angel.”
Heilig — Evelyn Brent in
‘‘The Darkened Room.”
Rex — Grace Moore in ‘‘A
Lady’s Morals.” (Jenny Lind.)

Hex Film Praised
Jenny Lind, she of strict virtue
and golden-voiced, comes to life
in the person of Grace Moore, Met
ropolitan opera star, in the Rex
current film, "A Lady’s Morals.”
In this excellent picture, a new
personality is introduced to the
talking screen, one who has won
her laurels in opera and recital
programs, and whose dramatic
ability nearly equals her splendid
voice.
A great cast accompanies this
story of the Swedish Nightingale
whose prim moral neatness is up
set in a love affair with a blind
composer. P. T. Barnum, who
sponsored Jenny Lind’s first ap
pearance in New York, is por
trayed by Wallace Beery. Reginald
Denny is the young composer, and
Jobyna Howland contributes her
usual robust comedy. She will be
remembered for her hilarious part
in “Hook, Line, and Sinker.”
“Blue Angel” in Last Day
“The Blue Angel,” sensational
UFA German importation, contin
ues to dazzle McDonald audiences
with its brilliant and tragic story.
Emil Jannings and Marlene Diet
rich have the leading roles. The
former's sensational performance
has never been equalled in his ear
lier silent films. Josef Von Stern
berg, America's intelligent direc
tor, is responsible for a great deal
of the film’s sucess.
Evelyn Brent at Heilig
“Darkened Rooms,” current film
at the Heilig theatre, and starring
Evelyn Brent, is a mystery thrill
er dealing with the adventures of
a poor girl caught in a “seance”
racket.
Accepting a job in a bogus pho
tographer’s studio, run only to
make spirit photos for a medium,
Grace Moore iis Jenny lam! in
the current Rex feature, “A Rudy's
Morals.”
she falls in love with the picture
man, no other than Neil Hamil
ton, and is involved in a series of
dramatic events before rescuing
her lover. Others in the cast in
elude Wallace MacDonald, E. H.-*
Calvert, Gale Henry, and David
Newell.
Amos ’n’ Andy at Colonial
Amos ’n' Andy, America’s sweet
hearts of radioland, are being both
heard and seen today at the Co
lonial theatre. In all their tire
some dialogue, the Fresh Air taxi,
sooty faces, these two men have
established themselves as an inte
gral part of the American scene.
Only death can end a tribute vast
er than has ever been accorded an
entertainer in this country.
If you like Amos ’n’ Andy, a
thousand pardons. If you don’t—
congratulations.
Benny Itilhin at the State
Benny Rubin, comedian extra- ’
ordinary for a number of film suc
cesses, including “No Limit” and
"The Spoilers,” is being featured
at the State theatre today in the
