Library in Each Living Organization on Campus Aim of Oregon Mothers’ Association*
Plan Is Voted
Unanimously
On Saturday
Home Atmosphere Wanted
For Students With
Books in Houses
Women’s Organization To
Aid Dads’ Group in
Work for School
Creation of a library in each liv
ing organization on the campus is
the aim of the Oregon Mothers’
association for the coming year
voted unanimously at a meeting of
the group Saturday afternoon in
Guild hall.
In the absence of the president,
Mrs. Walter M. Cook, who was
called to California Friday on ac
count of the death of her sister,
Mrs. J. F. Hill, secretary, outlined
the project to be undertaken by
the mothers.
It is the purpose of the organi
zation to furnish the same atmos
phere for students while on the
campus as they have in their
homes, where good books on var
ious topics are available any time.
Home Study Wanted
To place such a library in the
living organizations would make
it possible for students to study at
home in the evenings and in spare
moments rather than go to the li
braries. Books both for technical
knowledge and diversion are to be
supplied.
A committee is to be appointed
by Mrs. F. W. Bond, the new presi
dent, to complete plans for the pro
ject.
Intention was expressed on the
part of the mothers to unite their
efforts with the Oregon Dads in
helping the University to deal with
such problems as student owner
ship of cars, regulation of social
functions, smoking and drinking,
the situation in Portland during
games, and courses to equip wom
en for the home.
Committee To Work
A group composed of five mem
bers will take action under the di
rection of the executive commit
tee in working out these problems
which were submitted to the or
ganization by the personnel bur
eau.
Mothers were urged to work
with their boys and girls in cor
recting the conditions on the cam
pus and especially those arising
in Portland during the fall football
games. Rather than have students
staying in hotels it was suggested
that parents living in the city en
tertain them in their homes.
Study groups organized a year
and a half ago were reported as
proving very successful by repre
sentatives from Pendleton, Grants
Pass, Klamath Falls, Medford, and
Portland. These organizations
made up of mothers with children
attending Oregon or expecting to
go to school here meet once a
month to become better acquainted
with the problems and policies of
the University.
Fourteen in State
Fourteen of these now exist in
the state. Booklets containing an
outline of college work in a sim
plified form which may be easily
understood have been sent to 1500
mothers by the University.
Officers submitted by the nom
inating committee headed by Mrs.
F. C. Felter, Portland, were unani
mously accepted.
Mrs. F. W. Bond, Pendleton, who
was vice-president the past year,
is the new president,
o Others elected were: Mrs. John
L. Travis, Portland, vice-president;
Mrs. O. F. Stafford, Eugene, treas
urer; and Mrs. Paul VV. Ager, Eu
gene, executive secretary.

War Prevention
Council Leader
Here Tomorrow
Frederick J. Libby To Talk
In Villuril Ilall on
Thursday Morning
This imposing title—“National
Council for Prevention of War”—
may suggest to the average per
son anything from long-haired pac
ifists to reds of a dangerous cast,
in the opinion of members of the
Eugene council.
And since the organization’s ex
ecutive secretary and original or
ganizer, Frederick J. Libby, is soon
to visit this city, local officers are
particularly keen on seeing that
the work of the council is under
stood.
Council Is Clearing House
According to the Rev. Clay
Palmer, president, the council is
a clearing house through which
many American organizations car
ry on their educational programs
for peace. Among these he cited
the American Association of Uni
versity Women, The American
Federation of Teachers, American
School Citizenship League, Nation
til Educational association, Nation
al W. Y. C. A., National Council
of Jewish Women.
The planks of the council's pro
gram. Mr. Palmer said, are world
wide reduction of armaments, by
international agreement, progres
sive world organization and world
wide education for peace.
As for Mr. Libby’, Mr. Palmer, as
well as other Eugene townspeople
familiar with his work, is enthu
siastic about the service he has
done since organizing the national
council in 1921. Speaking in hun
dreds of cities, Mr. Libby’ has
reached school children, business
men. church leaders Americans
from many walks of life.
Uhhy Fine Speaker
His education has included work
children in the University. Frances
and Elizabeth Keene are both
sophomores. Anne and Frank
Kistner are sophomores and jun
iors, respectively.
Elizabeth Bond, sophomore, is
the daughter of Mrs. F. W. Bond,
new president of the organization.
Jim Travis, sophomore, is the
son of Mrs. John L. Travis, who
is the vice-president, and Wilson
Jewett, junior, is the son of Mrs.
Wilson Jewett, a member of the
executive committee.
Another member of the cofti
mittee, Mrs. Horace Fenton, is the
mother of Mary Katherine Fen
ton, junior.
Mrs. Walter M. Cook, who was
made honorary president at the
Mothers’ mass meeting Saturday,
has a daughter, Betty, who is a
junior on the campus.
at Heidelberg, Oxford, and Ando
ver Theological seminary. He is
a Quaker. Those who have met
him on previous occasions describe
him as a fine speaker.
Many University students have
an added interest in the council's
work because a 1930 graduate,
Mary Klemm, is one of the asso
ciate secretaries now working un
der Mr. Libby.
The national peace leader will
speak before students at Villard
hall at 9 o’clock Thursday morn
ing and on the preceding evening
will talk before townspeople at the
Methodist church. Wednesday af
ternoon he will have conferences
it 2:30 anil 3:30 o’clock at the Con
gregational church on world dis
armament and what the individual '
can do for world peace.

Miss Doris Helen Patterson will
play the organ accompaniment.
The ‘Concerto in E flat, opus 73,’
was written for piano and orches

orchestra for this concert.
Grainger Work Chosen
“Then there will be Percy
Grainger’s paraphrase on Tsehaik
owsky’s ’Nutcracker Suite,’ and
Dohnanyi’s ‘Fourth Rhapsodie,’ an
interpretation of the great reli- >
gious poem, ‘Dies Irae.’
"Of course, the Casella ‘Satires' ;
will furnish humor of the pro
gram. They are biting satires on
carious forms of musical compo
sition. written as children’s pieces.
"Alfred Casella is one of the
eery modern composers. He is a
young Italian, and wrote the
Pieces Enfantines’ in 1920. They
include a typical prelude, as
played by a 7-year-old, a ‘Valse
Diatonique,’ or lesson three in
Book One of the Piano Student
Series, and a Carillon, which
sounds like the Methodist church
chimes.

“As old as the hills is the insti
tution of mother and child, and in
this world of laughter and tears,
joys and sorrows, we can blend ev

have sympathy one for the other,”
said Mrs. Max Hirsch, Portland,
speaking at the Mothers’ day ves
per services Sunday in the music
auditorium.
Mrs. Hirsch, in a short talk on
the relations of mothers and their
children, said that in this day, not
possession of one by the other, but
joint ownership was the ideal by
which we seek perfect understand

The program opened with an or
gan solo by John Stark Evans,
“Adagio Pathetique,” by Godard.
"The Swan,” by Saint-Saens and
Fourth Concerto of Vieuxtemps

“While the program is pretty
heavy, the Handel gavotte and the
Chopin Etude in octaves along
with the Casella satires will give
sufficient brilliance to dispel the
gloom of the Beethpven, Dohn

Cherry Praises Plan
In a statement for the Emerald
last night, Cherry expressed his
opinions on the new resolution as
follows:
“The thing most necessary to the
A. S. U. O. progress at the present
time is a better'understanding and
appreciation of our organization—
a consciousness of our own power
ful association. A knowledge of
its working, background, the serv
ices it performs, and the privileges
it makes possible will give the only
firm background which can make
for intelligent cooperation—and a
feeling of unity upon which our
future progress will depend.”
Actual appointment of the
speakers committee will be made
in the near future, Cherry declared.

Mrs. W. Bond of Pendleton
Is New President of
Organization
To Phi Mu went the Mrs. Frank
Heitkemper trophy for having the
largest percentage of mothers of
any women’s living organization,
and to Beta Theta Pi went the Mrs.
Charles Hall trophy for the second
time for being the men’s living or
ganization with the largest per
centage of mothers here for the
week-end. The awards were made
at the Mothers’ day banquet in
Gerlinger hall Saturday evening.
Alpha Chi Omega, Sigma Kappa,
and Alpha Omicron Pi were given
honorable mention among the
women's organizations, and Delta
Tau Delta and Kappa Sigma were
ranked similarly among the men's
groups.
Mrs. Hall Honored
For her work with the Oregpn
mothers during the past year Mrs.
Arnold Bennett Hall was given a
jeweled Oregon Mothers' pin by
the Mothers’ organization. The pre
sentation was made by Mrs. W. F.
Bond of Pendleton, new president
of the Oregon Mothers. Mrs. Wal
ter M. Cook of Portland, for the
past two years president of the
Oregon Mothers, was unanimously
named permanent honorary presi
dent by the group. Mrs. Cook was
unable to attend the sessions here
this week-end, having been called
to California by the death of her
sister.
Dr. Arnold Bennett Hall, presi
dent of the University, urged the
Mothers present at the banquet to
visit the University and to study
the conditions here and the prob
lems of their children in an effort
to help the University and the stu
dents in their cooperative work.
Mothers were asked by Dr. Hall to
interest parents of prospective stu
dents in the work of the Univer
sity, not with a view to recruiting
students, but in order to help these
mothers learn the problems their
children will have to meet at the
University.
Goodwill Message Sent
The Mothers sent a message of
good will and friendship to moth
ers of Oregon State students who
were assembled at the same time
at the Memorial Union building on
the Corvallis campus. The mes
sage pointed out that both organi
zations are working for a common
goal, that of providing for the best
interests of the boys and girls in
higher educational institutions,
and Oregon Mothers pledged them
selves to cooperate with the Ore
gon State mothers in every way.
Greetings from the state board
of higher education were brought
by F. E. Callister of Albany. O.
Laurgaard, president of the Ore
gon Dads, brought greetings from
that organization to the Oregon
Mothers. Welcome and greetings
from the associated students to
their Mothers was given by George
Cherry, president of the A. S. U.
WHAT SHOW TONIGHT ?
Colonial — Adolph Menjou in
“The Front Page.’’
Heilig — Loretta Young in “Too
Young To Marry.”
McDonald — Robert Montgom
ery in “Shipmates.”
State — Double bill. “Jhe Fall
Guy,” "Ladies of Leisure.”
“The Front Page” Makes Hit
For many months we have heard
the “Front Page,” playing now at
the Colonial theatre, as one of the
finest films ever to come from Hol
lywood. That judgment is correct.
The play of Ben Hecht and Charles
McArthur is actually improved
upon.
All the cynicism, romance, cal
lousness, drama, and melodrama
of newspapering are packed into
this picture. It is ironic, brutal, hi
larious, tragic, all at the same
time. It is not a tribute to the
profession, by any manner of
means, but it conveys in a clear
way just exactly what it is that
attracts some men’s passionate de
votion.
Robert Mongomery Becomes Star
Robert Montgomery, matinee
idol, and featured player of many
a popular film, at last becomes a
star in his own right in “Ship
mates,” playing today at the Mc
Donald theatre.
“Shipmates” is the story of a
young navy seaman who hates his
job but falls in love with the ad
miral's daughter.
Others in the cast include Cliff
Edwards, Dorothy Jordan, Ernest
Torrence, and Hobart Bosworth.
Loretta Young at Heilig <(
Loretta Young and Grant With
ers are starred together in “Too
Young to Marry,” (what a title!)
playing at the Heilig theatre today.
Others in the cast are O. P. Heg
gie, J. Farrell McDonald, and
Richard Tucker.
Double Bill at State
The regular weekly double bill
at the State theatre today and to
morrow includes “The Fall Guy,”
and “Ladies of Leisure,” both com
edies of second run here, but worth
seeing over if you missed them.
O. Dr. Hall brought greetings
from the University.
New Officers Introduced
New officers of the Oregon
Mothers were then introduced to
the crowd of 800 which gathered
in the gym of Gerlinger hall for
the banquet. They are: Mrs. W. F.
Eond, Pendleton, president; Mrs.
John L. Travis, Portland, vice
president; Mrs. O. F. Stafford, Eu
gene, treasurer; Mrs. Paul Ager,
Eugene, executive secretary; and
the following executive board: Mrs.
Wilson H. Jewett, Eugene; Mrs. F.
B. Kistner, Mrs. Horace Fenton,
both of Portland; Mrs. H. C. Ga
ley, Ashland; and Mrs. C. W.
Keene, Silverton. Mrs. J. F. Hill,
retiring secretary, presided at the
banquet.
Following the presentation of
the trophies, sons and daughters
presented their mothers with the
Oregon Mothers' pins. This is the
second time the pins have been
used, having been originated by
the Oregon Mothers last year.
Throughout the banquet the Uni
versity orchestra under the direc
torship of George Barron, fur
nished music. The invocation was
given by Max Adams, University
pastor. Preceding the talks the
men’s quartet, directed by John
Stark Evans, sang three numbers.
Alexis Lyle was in charge of the
banquet. Jack Stipe was assistant
chairman. Mrs. Genevieve Turnip
seed, director of dormitories, was
in charge of the preparation.

To Affirmative Talkers
On Chain Store Topic
Decrying the tactics and abuses
of chain stores, Helen Wilson and
Donald Darneille, representing the
Medford high school, won the Ore
gon State high school debating
championship here Saturday night
in a contest with Prineville high
school. The Medford students up
held the affirmative stand of the
question, “Resolved, that chain
stores are detrimental to the best
interests of the American people.”
Arguing against the winners
while pointing out the advantages
of the chain store idea were Cath
erine Coshow and Frances Mays,
of Prineville. They were coached
by Vernon I. Basler, while the win
ners were coached by Ralph R.
Bailey. Medford was runner-up in
the state contest last year, losing ^
in the finals to Milton-Freewater.
For winning the championship,
Medford gains the E. E. DeCoji
cup, given annually. The Buijt
