I Editorial Hour POf O. Emerald Will Continue Talks on Cuxjent Topics Presented on KORE By Professors Campus Musical Talent Will be Sought Out By Blais “The afternoon Emerald editor ial hour, which has been broadcast daily over station KORE, for the last two terms, is the only such program sponsored by any college newspaper on the Pacific coast, and perhaps the only one in the United States,” Ralph David, ra dio director, said yesterday in dis cussing the Emerald radio work. Plans for a continuation of the programs next year, according to Merlin Blais, who has been David’s assistant, and who will direct the work next year, are under'way, and further developments in mak ing the hour worth while for the general public will be carried out. News Items Given The programs have been made up mostly of presentations of cam pus news items and of editorial material clipped both from the Emerald and from other university and college newspapers throughout We Take This Opportunity . . . To thank the students of Oregon for their patron age .. . i To wish the best of luck { and happiness to students this summer . . . To extend our congratu lations to the graduates. UNIVERSITY . PHARMACY 11th at Alder I the country. To relieve the monot ony of this type of daily program, however, a number of speakers were engaged to address the ra dio audience on topics of current interest. “The University faculty includes a considerable number of men who are recognized authorities in their particular fields of education, and it has been our aim to overcome to some degree the handicaps which prevent the general public from enjoying the educational benefits of the University as well as the students. The radio is un doubtedly the easiest means of bringing the public directly in con tact with the work of these pro fessors,” David said. Many Give Talks Among those who have spoken during the past few months are: Dr. Donald Erb, professor of eco nomics, whose subject was “The Present Railroad Crisis;” John G. Hazam, professor of history, who spoke on “Islam in the Modern World;” Dr. John R. Mez, profes sor of economics, who spoke on “The Relations of the Pacific;” Dr. Victor P. Morris, professor of eco nomics, whose topic was “The Ups and Downs of Business;” and Wayne L. Morse, professor of law, who spoke on “The Crime Situa tion.” Announcement of the Murray Warner essay contest winners over the radio was perhaps the out standing feature on the list of pro grams for the term. The discussion of the Oregon crime survey by Mr. Morse, the radio interview with Frank Gardner Hale, international ly recognized jewelry craftsman, on “Handicraft vs. the Machine in Modern Art,” and the appearance of the Oregon Yeomen polyphonic quartet, which took first place in the all-campus contest held last week, were other events scheduled during the editorial broadcasts. Remote Control Set Up A remote control studio located near the campus has perhaps been the most significant development since the inauguration of the Em erald programs winter term, and the use of this extension service has been provided through the courtesy of the Oregon Pharmacy. Next year the utilizing of cam pus speakers will be continued, but according to Blais a more exten sive use of campus musical and speaking talent to be found among students will be used. The coopera tion of the student body in making these programs a real representa tion of what it can do, is asked by next year’s director.

Book Wins Praises “I have been reading the ‘Craft of the Critic’ with constantly in creasing pleasure,” says E. N. Voorhees, of Columbia University, who is quoted in the publishers’ announcement. “It is too humanly warm and personal to be called a handbook, and these are the very qualities which I believe will en tice the student to make valuable use of the book as a guide to new vistas, for the author speaks with the authority of a scholar and the charm of an artist.” “I shall list Professor Smith's ‘The Craft of the Critic’ in the rec ommended list of books on criti cism and shall recommend it in my course in American literature,” says J.
