The Pioneer Mother
... as noble generations vie,
With thy calm benediction close above,
To meet a tangled world, and press along
With hearts as high as thine, with souls as strong.
—Eric W. Allen
T ATE this afternoon as the shadows lengthen over the campus
a new figure will make its appearance in the women’s quad
rangle. The lone vigil that the Pioneer has kept will end with
the unveiling of A. Phimister Proctor’s statue of the Pioneer
Mother.
Seated in her chair, deep in retrospection, she will symbolize
the joy and quiet of the end of the trail. Let others depict the
hardships and struggles and sorrows of the long trek; Oregon's
Pioneer Mother will rather be portrayed at the culmination of
hor efforts, softened and mellowed with the passage of years.
As Burt Brown Barker has said, she will be typified “in the
beauty and peace und afterglow of her twilight days.’’
The gift of the vice-president will be an enduring tribute to
a noble character. It will be a constant inspiration to the gen
erations of students who will come and go. It will provide an
impetus to truer and finer life. But the quiet and contentment
so beautifully pictured in the Oregon Mother does not sym
bolize the achievement of the goal. It represents but the end
of one trail and the beginning of another.
For we fear the shaven lawns of the quadrangle will not be
the Valhalla that Mr. Proctor would visualize. They will be
rather a vantage point from which the Pioneer Mother may
gaze out over the expanse and lend the inspired qualities of
courage and faith to those who pass by. The very campus
she overlooks, despite its apparent tranquillity, will be the scene
of a struggle that will require the indomitable loyalty and de
votion of faculty, students and alumni. The fate of the Uni
versity must rest ir. the hands of those who are stalwart enough
to protect and preserve her. May the spirit of the Pioneer
Mother induce tne unswerving fidelity which is so indispensable
in the hour of need.
Let her far-seeing eyes look further. The peace anti con
tentment that appears to envelop the state may be but the
lull before the gale. The need for pioneer daring looms as great
as ever. Just as the early years required the physical bravery
of the settler, so today and tomorrow require the moral courage
of the citizen. The clarion call for men of honor to direct the
destinies of our state is a ringing challenge that cannot go un
heeded. May the disciples of the Pioneer Mother provide the
answer.
Wider yet is the field she must survey. From coast to coast
rise the dust of deception and the mist of oppression. The
battles for justice and democracy must still be fought. The
gales of despair must yet be weathered. And, oil Pioneer
Mother, may the happiness and contentment of your reflections
be unmarred by the trying times that are before us; if they be
shaken by the violence of the storm let them be re-established
by the efforts of those who will brave it.
"The Powers That Be—”
il LTHOUGH the week-end's just gotten under way and there
is still a day and a half to come, we take time out to con
gratulate ourselves and to thank old Jupe, to whom we have
lifted fervent prayers since the first of the term, for the big
way in which Mr. Weatherman pulled through and turned on
the violet rays for the campus luncheon and festivities yester
day.
The day started out perfectly, and we heard, while still sev
eral blocks away from the campus on our way to an eight
o'clock, the very audible sigh of relief which students let out
“cn masse.” The attempt to spoil our pleasure aud surprise
which Mr. Weatherman made along about nine or ten o’clock
with big dark clouds only served to make our delight greater
when Sol beamed through to warm us as we ate our lunch on
the lawn.
If Mr. Weatherman stands by us today and tomorrow in the
brilliant way in which he started the week-end, we will be com
pelled to believe that the powers that be are with the Univer
sity.

Cal Young Avers
Not Pioneer, Just
Helper, He Says
"I'm not a pioneer,” was the
j startling- statement last night of
Cal Young, who has charge of in
vitations to Oregon's early settlers
for the pioneer banquet to be held
in connection with the Mother’s
banquet at 5:30 tonight at Mc
Arthur court.
"I was born in Oregon,” he ex
plained, "with a silver spoon in my
mouth, on the same ranch I live
i on now. I’m just helping the real
pioneers to get together.”
He has sent out a hundred tick
ets to pioneers, and only two of
the hundred are certain not to
come.
Of the Pioneer Mother, Mr.
Young declared, “I think it’s a
wonderful thing that Burt Brown
Barker has done, especially for the
pioneers of the western coast.”
He was sorry, he said over the
telephone, that he wouldn’t be able
to see the movies of himself at the
Colonial last night or tonight. "My
youngsters have the car out,” he
remarked, “the saddle pony’s out
in the pasture, and it’s too far to
walk. And I’m going to the ban
quet and the canoe fete tomorrow
night.”

Motive of Crime
PARIS, May 6.—(AP)—Dr. Paul
Gorgulov told the police tonight
after a wilting bombardment of
questioning that he killed Presi

might declare war on Russia.
“European states seemed favor

finally declared, "so I decided to
kill the president and cause Franco
to declare war on Russia.
“I planned to kill myself be
cause I knew my life had been
finished.”
The Russian said he was born
in 1895 at Braviscala, Russia, in
the Caucasus, and was trained as
a Cossack. He said he served
with the czar’s army on the Aus
trian front and was educated in
medicine at Prague.
“I am a great Russian patriot,”
he said. “I know you will kill me,
but my duty was to do what I
did.”
