To Aid Freshmen j
_ i
Tuesday and Thursday mornings :
all freshmen interested in the re
turns from their placement exam
inations or in academic or voca
tional advice may confer with Dr.
Howard R. Taylor, director of the |
bureau of personnel research.
From the personnel records com
piled for each student fairly def
inite conclusions can be reached
upon the probability of success in
college. The records available in
clude preparatory school, place
ment examinations and grade av
erages per term of college work.
Dr. Taylor hopes in the inter
views with students, particularly
with freshmen, to clarify students’
ideas of the work done by the re
search bureau. Students faced
with difficulties in selection of ma
jors and courses can, by studying
their records as interpreted by an
expert, find their special capaci
ties and weaknesses.

is again, this time back to her
nore natural and sensational plat
num hue, in a part made to or
ier for her. The cut-up — she
lathes in the drinking water,
launts her non-parallel accessor
es in the so-masculine face of
Hark Gable, and very nearly i
vrecks Mary Astor’s life. And

“Red Dust” is set in the tropics,
md all the languorous passion of

n fact, says my advance sheet,
‘He fought the loneliness, fever,
and blinding dust storms, but he
couldn’t resist the soft arms of a
woman. See this picture of tropi
cal passion and a jungle man
whose word was law!” You can
take that or leave it, but who’s a
better jungle man than he-man
Gable ?
Colonial
At the Colonial they’re still
thrilling them tonight with their
double bill. ‘‘Murders in the Rue
Morgue” employs all the needful
attenda — the beautiful helpless
girl, the gorilla (real, not Bela
Lugosi), the menace, the fiendish
laboratory, the everything of the
perfect shocker, I’m told. And as
for “Freaks”—it’s a picture hard
to forget. This tale of the con
torted lives of the circus contains
some of the most harrowing scenes
I have ever seen- and what the
picture might lack in eventual
meaning it certainly makes up in
present horror. It’ll hant yu’.

Well Made Book,” in room 4 of
the library building at 10 o’clock
tomorrow morning.
Mr. Lane graduated from the
University of Oregon with a B.S.

and took printing receiving a M.S.
degree with honors, one of only
two persons to do this in the Uni

Everyone interested in hearing
the talk is welcome to come. Some
beautifully made books will be1
shown and these books v/ill be put
on exhibition on the main floor
for a week after the talk.

One Day Vacation
For Thanksgiving
School Behind in Schedule
Because of Holiday
Oil Wednesday
With but one day allowed for
Thanksgiving vacation this year,
students of Oregon and Oregon
State find themselves for the first
• time under the same ruling gov
; eming this holiday, it was stated
j last night by Earl M. Pallctt, reg
istrar.
' ’Dismissal of classes over the en
tire week-end. while done at Ore
i gon for a number of years, has
| never been allowed to students at
Oregon State. The normal schools
and the medical school in Port
land will not follow the same
schedule due to difference in the
class schedules, since they take
only one or two days in completing
registration procedure.
University schedules are already
i behind due to the holiday granted
| last Wednesday following election.
One of the principal reasons for
I the elimination of the week-end
holiday is the unfairness it im
poses on students living out of
state, and who cannot go home
’for Thanksgiving even with a
three-day vacation. Students from
Portland can easily leave Wednes
day afternoon and spend Wednes
day night and most of Thursday
at home, returning Thursday night
even without the extension.

(This is one of a series of articles from
Salem explaining the allocation of courses
under the new system adopted by the state
board of higher education. The board is
putting the plan into operation for the
first time this semester.)
^ ALEM, Nov. 7.— (Special) —
^ Details of the organization of
the new school of social sciences
which will offer work in seven
major lines in this field in the
Oregon State System of Higher
Education were announced recent
ly by the state board of higher
education.
The new school has been formed
from social science departments
and courses of the old college of
literature, science and the arts
and the school of applied social
science at the University of Ore
gon and duplicating departments
in the schools of commerce, voca
tional education and basic arts
and sciences at Oregon State col
lege. Dr. James H. Gilbert, for
mer dean of the college of litera
ture, science and the arts and a
member of the University faculty
for 25 years, will be the new dean
of the school of social science
with headquarters at Eugene.
Dean Gilbert was graduated from
the University of Oregon in 1903
and received his doctor's degree at
Columbia university in 1907.
* * *
\
Major work leading to bachelor,
master and doctor degrees in the
fields of economics, geography,
history, philosophy, political sci
ence, psychology and sociology
will be given at the University
under the consolidation program
of the board.
Lower division work during the
first two years, giving students
a thorough background for spe
cialization in any of the major
curricula in social sciences, will be
offered at both Corvallis and Eu
gene. In addition, service courses
for students in the technical and
scientific schools at the college
will be given at Corvallis. While
all specialization in the school
will be concentrated on the Eu
gene campus, students not only
will be given opportunity for a
thorough background on either
campus, the board points out, but
will also have available supple
mentary courses in other schools.
* * *
A saving for the coming year
of approximately 13 per cent over
the present system has been ef
fected by the changes aside from
the salary reductions. The sav
ings are made possible partly
through elimination of faculty
members owing to consolidation
of departments and courses, and
partly by larger classes and in
creased teaching loads.
In reducing the personnel from
56 staff members at both insti
tutions to 41, including all profes
sors, associate and assistant pro
fessors, instructors and graduate
assistants, the ablest men have in
Jvery instance been retained. All
out two faculty members holding
he rank of assistant professor or
ibove hold doctor of philosophy
iegrees, the highest academic title
ivailable for educators.
* * *
Under the new arrangement for
his school, it was not necessary
.o make shifts from one campus
o the other. Members of the
tchool’s faculty at Eugene follow:
Economics Dr. James H. Gil
>ert, Dr. Donald M. Erb and Dr.

Health Week Now
Being Sponsored
By WAA Students
[ “If the A. S. U. O. awarded the
O to every student who had 'ath
lete’s foot,' the Order of the O
would certainly increase its mem
bership,” is the opening sentence
of an article by Dr. Fred Miller,
written ii\ conjunction with Health
Week, now being sponsored by the
Women’s Athletic association.
The article describes the effect
on the body of this fungus growth
which is acquired when walking
barefoot in the gymnasium or liv
ing organization. The growth
may manifest itself in blisters or
cracking, may be damp or dry
and may, or may not, itch, accord
ing to the individual.
Because of these personal dif
ferences, Dr. Miller declares no
one remedy may be recommended.
Spread of infection, the article
reads, may be checked, however,
by sprinkling floors with chloride
of lime. “Individuals can do
much,” Dr. Miller further stated,
“by refusing to borrow or lend
clothes, and by not running around
barc-footed.”

Lytton Report Added
To Library Collection
The Lytton report on the Man
churian situation has recently
been added to the League of Na
tion collection in room 32 on the
third floor of the main library,
Pauline Walton, who is in charge
of the League of Nations collec
tion, made known. Also the large
maps which help to explain the re
port may be found there.
Other books recently received
are: “A World Economic Survey,”
“The Course and Phases of the
World Economic Depression,” and
“Unemployment.”
It haunted clerks
for generations
“ The first of the month” used to be a time of
feverish activity for ledger clerks. But the Bell
System accounting staff — breaking away from
tradition — simplified the keeping of accounts and
rendering of monthly statements to customers.
They applied a| modern system of rotation bill
ing to the telephone business which now spreads
this work evenly throughout the month. In co
operation with manufacturers, they devised special
typewriters and bookkeeping machines. Thus
they did away with inefficient rush and achieved
greater accuracy, speed and neatness.
This is but one example of a point of view found
throughout the Bell System. Even long accepted
routine is constantly studied —it’s always worth
looking for the more efficient way!
