From The President’s Pen
Administration Takes Great Pride in Student Achievement,
Writes Doctor Hall.
By ARNOLD BENNETT HALL
^ I sometimes wonder if the stu
dents realize the tremendous pride
that the administration takes in
student achievements that really
represent meritorious accomplish
ment. I have never received as
great a thrill from any profession
al entertainment as I have receiv
ed from student performances in
which they have reached a high
point of artistic attainment. The
splendid and wholesome enthus
iasm of youth is particularly ap
pealing to me when it finds expres
sion in sincere, intelligent and ar
tistic effort.
I did not have the opportunity to
attend "Twelfth Night,” given by
f the students in the Guild theatre
recently, but on every hand has
come to me the highest praises of
what the students were able to ac
complish. There are certain activ
ities, such as the arts, which can
not reach their highest campus ex
1 pression except through the forces
of student initiative, and for that
' reason I deeply appreciate the high
standards the students are building
and look forward to the time when
the student body of Oregon may
enjoy a national reputation for its
capacity for artistic achievement
in the various fields of student en
terprise. I hope that an increasing
number of students will share my
pride in such notable accomplish
ment and will share my hope for
still better standards for the fu
ture.
Lecturer From
Austria Plans
Visit Thursday
Dr. Walter Kotslmig Guest
Of Campus Y. W. C. A.
And A. S. U. O.
Lecturer Representative
Of the International
Student Service
Dr. Walter Kotschnig, noted
Austrian lecturer and executive
secretary of International Student
Service, will speak at an A. S. U.
O. luncheon, Thursday, at the An
chorage. Doctor Kotschnig, whose
services were secured jointly by
the Y. W. C. A. and associated
students, is touching four campi
only, during his brief stay in the
United States, these being Wash
ington, Oregon, Oregon State, and
California. He intends to return
shortly to his headquarters at Ge
neva, but will revisit the United
States in September, for the an
nual conference of International
Student Service at Mount Holyoke,
Massachusetts.
Purpose Stated
The original purpose of Inter
national Student Service was to
provide material relief for the des
titute students in many of the
war-ridden countries of Europe.
When this need was eventually
filled, self-help enterprises were
organized in European countries,
and as the work went on, leaders
became actively concerned with
the practical problems of financ
ing education, improving living
conditions, and preserving har
mony among religious, racial, and
political groups in matters of in
ternational cooperation.
To carry out this program, head
quarters have been established at
Geneva, Switzerland; Dresden,
Germany; and New York. The
service institute has assisted in
building student centers at Nan
king, China, and Sofia, Bulgaria,
where university life is carried on
at great sacrifice. Methods of
self-help have been put into prac
tice in India, Russia, and Wales.
A program of cooperation be
tween Jewish and non-Jewish stu
dents in Europe has been the sub
ject of one conference, and is a
project of the coming year. Inas
much as no student of dark skin
in South Africa today is permitted
to work for a medical degree,
scholarships are being provided
for the continuation of their edu
cation.
Understanding Is Aim
Doctor Kotschnig’s aim is not
only to promote self-help enter
prises which create a sense of eco
nomic responsibility, but also,
through conferences, publications,
and practical work, to promote
mutual understanding among stu
dents and student leaders of the
world.
Tickets for the luncheon, Thurs
day at 12, are now on sale for 35
cents. They may be secured by
both students and faculty at the
Y. W. C. A. bungalow, or from

Hodge Narrates Results of
Intensive Study of Columbia
Geology Professor Collects
Facts About History
Of Oregon River
“Since the days that thoughtful
people first contemplated the ori
gin of the Columbia river, it has
been assumed that the river exist
ed in its present course long be
fore the growth of the plateau of
eastern Oregon, the Cascades, or
Coast Range mountains,” said Dr.
Edwin T. Hodge, professor of geol
ogy, yesterday.
Dr. Hodge has been making an
intense study of the river for sev
eral years and during that time
has discovered many facts hither
to unknown.
"Geologists have agreed and
called the stream an antecedent
stream,” he continued, “because it
existed before the mountains
through which it now wends its
magnificent course. Geologists say
that the mountains were bowed up
so slowly across the Columbia riv
er course that the river was able
to keep pace and maintain an open
channel.
“As a result of five years of de
tailed field work by myself and
assistants, I have collected a large
amount of data that proves that
the history of the Columbia river
is not so simple. East of Lyle we
have found a large fracture, o>'
fault, along which the rocks hav*
shifted so that those on the norla
side stand higher than those on the
south, forming a great fault scarp
comparable to that of the Rift in
Africa. In the trough so formed
were collected the waters of the
Columbia river, in fact two Colum
bia rivers, one of which found an
outlet to the sea some forty miles
away from its present course.
“During the early glacial period
in Oregon great deposits of mater
ial were spread across the old
drainage course and built the high
mountains that now stand on top
of the great Oregon plateau. It
must be remembered that at this
time the Oregon plateau extended
at least as far west as the Willam
ette valley and that the Cascade
Range is a pile of volcanic prod
ucts raised upon its western edge.
This dam created Condon lake, the
shores of which may clearly be
seen up to an elevation of 1800
feet east of the Cascade moun

Three Students
Chosen Soloists
For Sacred Mass
Sally Addleman, Don Eva
George Bishop To Sing
Sunday Afternoon
Sally Addleman, soprano; Don
Eva, tenor; and George Bishop,
baritone, all well-known student
singers, will have the solo parts
in the sacred mass, “The Seven
Last Words,” to be given at the
music auditorium next Sunday
afternoon by the combined men’s
and women’s glee clubs under the
direction of John Stark Evans.
Admission to the concert will be
free. Hundreds of students are
expected to take time off from
“cramming” for examinations to
attend the last campus concert of
the term. “The Seven Last
Words” has been given annually
by the glee clubs for the past
eight years as a pre-Easter con
cert and has become a fixed musi
cal tradition of the University,
Gould Is Accompanist
Robert Gould will be the organ
accompanist for the mass, and
Doris Helen Patterson will play
several harp obligatos.
“The Seven Last Words” was
written by Theodore Dubois. It is
divided into seven parts, each
using as a theme one of the say
ings of Christ as He hung upoa
the cross.
Sally Addleman is a sdfoior in
music. Her most recent achieve
ment is winning the prize offered
for the best individual perform
ance in the Emerald-KORE radio
contest. Her songs were instru
mental in enabling the Delta Gam
mas to reach the finals of the
contest.
Don Eva Tenor
Donald Eva, junior in pre-law,
has won a reputation by his work
in the annual Christmas presenta
tion of “St. Cecilia Mass,” for
which he has sung the tenor role
the past two years.
George Bishop will fill a solo
role for the first time. He is a
sophomore in languages and litera
ture.
The program will begin at 4
o’clock. In view of the standing
room-only crowd which packed the
auditorium to hear the “St. Cecilia
Mass” last December, students at
tending are advised to come early.
Last Lecture on South
America Will Be Tonight
The final lecture by Dr. Warren
D. Smith, professor of geology, on

be given tonight at Condon hall at
7:30. The ten talks, which have
been sponsored by the University
extension division, have covered
the economic, geographic, and so
cial features of most of the south
ern continent.
In tonight's lecture, an attempt
will be made to forecast the prob
able future of South America. A
special discussion devoted to the
relation between the United States
and South America will be held.
Motion pictures will probably be
shown.

Nunn Will Speak
Of Summer Camp
Meeting Sponsored for All
Girls Interested
All women who are interested in
counselorship at Camp Numanu,
.Camp Fire Girls’ camp near Port
land, during next summer, may
interview Miss Louise Nunn, Port
land Camp Fire Girls’ executive
head, between 10 and 5 today, by
making appointments at the dean
of women’s office.
Miss Nunn is here at the invita
tion of the Campus Camp Fire
club, newly organized organization
for women who have been Camp
Fire Girls. She will talk before
the regular meeting of the club to
night at 8:45, at the Y. W. C. A.
bungalow, and every girl who has
ever been a member of a Camp
Fire group is cordially invited to
hear her speak.
Miss Louise Nunn will also talk
about summer camps at an assem

Miss Nunn will explain under
the general topic of summer
camps: what they are expected to
give; the qualification of counse
lors; and the growing field of sum
i mer camp work. Jesse Puckett,
president of W. A. A., said, “Miss
Nunn has had contact with other
camps and has done a great deal
of camp work, and is well-suited to
talk upon the subject.” A short

Haas Will Talk
Tomorrow In
Lecture Series
World-Famous Physicist
To Speak on ‘Atom
And Universe’
Second Speaker Brought
Here by Committee
And Sigma Xi
T h # second lecturer to be
brought to the Oregon campus by
the committee on free intellectual
activities* and the Oregon chapter
of Sigms Xi, national scientific
honorary, fh\ Arthur Haas, world
famous physicist of the University
of Vienna, will speak here tomor
row evening in the music audito
rium on “The- Atom and the Uni
verse.” The v*ry eminence of the
man should attract a large audi
ence, Dr. E. P. Boynton, head of
the physics department, said yes
terday.
Facts To Be Given
The lecture will be of a nature
which will furnish facts and sci
entific information to those of
more technical mind but will,
however, be of a character as can
be readily comprehended and en
joyed by those of no scientific
training, according to Doctor
Boynton. Doctor Haas i3 well
qualified to speak on the subject.
He is internationally recognized as
a research authority, a very capa
ble writer of scientific texts, and
a widely read author of popular
scientific expositions, Doctor Boyn
ton said.
Dr. A. E. Caswell, professor of
physics, stated that, in his opinion,
the lecture would be very interest
ing, and recalled the lecture of W.
F. G. Schwann, of Franklin Insti
tute, who spoke here last summer
at .a meeting of the American As
sociation for the Advancement of
Science, as one which proved of
great interest to both the scien
tific gathering and those from the
town who were in the audience.
He anticipates a lecture of a
somewhat similar nature.
Speaks Fluent English
Doctor Haas is characterized by
reports as being especially able
in the translation of technical sub
jects into simpler language. He
speaks English fluently, having
ben at one time a lecturer at Uni
versity College of London, as well
as having lectured once before in
the United States. His schedule
includes lectures at Harvard, Cor
nell, Princeton, and other promi
nent American universities.
This evening he will speak at
Oregon State and tomorrow he
will be brought down here by an
O. S. C. physics professor. A din
ner is being scheduled at noon for
him and for those who are espe
cially interested in his type of
work. The dinner will be held at
the Eugene hotel. Dr. Robert H.
Seashore of the psychology depart
ment or Doctor Boynton should be
notified in case anyone wishes to
attend.
National Attention
Conies to Morse
Oregon Professor’s Jury
Survey Widely Printed
National attention is being fo
cused on the recent survey of the
grand jury system, completed by
Wayne L. Morse, professor of law
at the University of Oregon,
through publication of a story
more than half a column in length
on the front page of the Christian
Science Monitor of March 5. The
Monitor is an international daily
with a circulation well over 100,
000 copies which go to every part
of the world.
The story describes in detail the
survey, which was conducted un
der the direction of the Social
Science Research council, in col
laboration with Dr. Raymond C.
Moley, of Columbia university.
Doctor Moley took as his field the
study of the information system
of indicting.
Professor Morse found through
his survey that the information
system was making gains in va
rious states throughout the coun
try, and that it is proving much
more satisfactory than the grand
jury system.

Student Pianist,Violinist Show
Skill and Artistry in Concert
By DAVE WILSON
Gladys Foster, pianist, and Fran
ces Brockman, violinist, closed the
term’s series of student recitals at
the music auditorium last night
with as fine an exhibition of tech
nical skill and lyrical artistry as
has been heard during the whole
year.
A high quality of musicianship is
to be expected from both Miss
Foster, who is a holder of a Juil
liard Foundation scholarship for
the second year, and Miss Brock
man, who holds a Phi Beta under
class scholarship, but both of them
did more than credit to the don
ors of their scholarships last night
and paid the finest tribute possi
ble to the guiding- skill of their
teachers, George Hopkins and Rex
Underwood.
It was a joint recital, and hon
ors were shared equally. The jtwo
students opened the program by
playing together a sonata for vio
lin and piano by Cesar Franck.
From the very first notes the au
dience ceased worrying about mat
ters of technique and interpreta
tion and settled back for pure en
joyment of the exotic lyricism of
the composition.
Cesar Franck must have written
a part of his innermost self Into
this sonata. The delicate, subdued
piano score underlies the plaintive
questioning of the violin with a
fusion that speaks of far-off
things, romantically remote from
the mundane affairs of life. The
two students imparted to the open
ing allegretto movement the fine
