NOVEL COURSE ENABLES
BLIND TO SCULPTURE
(Continued from rage One)
lem as a whole and do not discrim
inate between the inside and the
outside. For this reason they are
thorough in their work.”
One of the students, Mark Shoe
smith, has shown particular abil
ity in sculpture. He recently made
a modernistic head in sandstone,
which was lauded highly by Oliver
Barrett, professor of sculpture,
for its individuality and skillful
handling.
According to Dr. Edmund S.
Conklin, from the psychological
point of view, “The experiment
which Mrs. Schroff is conducting
has proved interesting and credit
able. I believe it is giving the
blind students a means of esthet
ic expression which they were for
merly deprived of.”
Knowing that one of the girls in
the class possessed partial sight,
Mrs. Schroff felt it unfair to the
others in the class, so she blind
folded the girl. The result was
that when the girl no longer de
pended on her eyes, she did more ;
creditable work, proving that her
tactual senses were more accurate
that her partial eye-sight.

will be buried in an Oregon letter
man's sweater.
The varsity letter, goal of three
years and a half of constant ef
fort on the part of the popular
basketball player, had been final
ly won two weeks ago in a game
with Idaho in which Stahl led the
Webfoots to victory over Idaho.
Mrs. G. V. Stahl, the boy'3
mother, requestSd that the varsity
sweater be awarded in time for
the funeral. All formalities upon
the awarding of varsity letters
were ignored in the emergency.
The sweater was puchased by
Graduate Manager Hugh Rosson

mittee or executive council, but
sanction to the purchase was giv
en at the council meeting late yes

along this line nor the results
which may be gained. Judging
from the ten weeks' trial which
the students have had, I am con
vinced that the blind will be able
to do excellent work along this
line, Mrs. Schroff stated.
To a visitor in the class room,
the blind students were revealed
about the room working at wheels,
casting pottery, or working with
stone. The alacrity of their fin
gers and their sense of proportion
in forming perfect contours were
remarkable. The enthusiasm and
pleasure which the student showed
readily proved the merit of the ex
periment, if only for enjoyment’s
sake alone. If this experiment
proves successful, it will be a def
inite step in relieving the blind
from their unfortunate heritage.
In relation to the experiment a
quotation of Helen Keller seems
very applicable:
“I sometimes wonder if the hand
is not more sensitive to the beau
ties of sculpture than the eye. 1
should think the wonderful rhyth
mical flow of lines and curves
could be more subtly felt than
seen.”
EUROPEAN PEACE SAID
DEPENDENT ON AMERICA
(Continued from Pc.ge One)
steadily helped Germany because
she knows that Germany is the
great bulwark in Europe, the
speaker stated.
Relations between Russia and
Germany have been friendly since
the 19th century. Russia’s policy
changed when she found that
Germany resisted her efforts to
take the Balkans and Turkey. At
present the Russian policy means
misery and hardship for its people
and is dangerous to other nations
because of her ideas.
Dr. Kuhlmann continued, ‘‘After
Germany became united, she pro
nounced herself as a separated na
tion and refused to entertain the
idea of overseas possessions. Since
Bismark’s time, German acquisi
tions have been small. Bismark
knew that Germany's policy must
be a defensive one.
“Russia and France felt that
their dominance was impaired by
Germany, resulting in the French
Russian alliance. They wanted to
have Germany remain cut up. Ger
many tried to have a balance of
power; therefore she allied herself
with Austria and Italy, although
Austria, being a curious mixture of
races and nationalities, was show
ing signs of decomposition.”
Italy began her unification
about the same time as Germany
under Count Cavour, who like Bis
mark, worked to make Italy a na
tion. She has been, and is, depen
dent upon England because Eng
land, with her navy, has virtually
made the Mediterranean an Eng
lish sea. Italy has always been
friendly to Germany but has al
ways been hostile to Austria,
stated Dr. Kuhlmann.
He asserted that he has a great
admiration for Mussolini because
he has tried to help conditions of
Germans under Italian rule. Aspi
rations of Italy have brought
acute relations with France, but
they are better now.
“Armed clashes are unpopular
in Europe and the European
people hope to keep peace and
settle by peaceful means all ques
tions that arise,” said Dr. Kuhl
mann.

Four Bureaus, Four Committees,
And Commonwealth Service
Council Arc Included
The wide scope of service to the
state as well as to higher educa
tion through research carried on
by bureaus and committees at the
University of Oregon is graphical
ly shown in the report of Dr. R.
W. Leighton, executive secretary
of research, made recently to
Chancellor W. J. Kerr. The report
covers progress made on many
projects that have already won
national recognition and is parti
cularly significant in that it shows
that practically all of the costs
are bornr by eastern foundations
or are being conducted by faculty
members who are already carrying
full teaching loads.
The activities and personnel of
four bureaus, four special commit
tees, and the commonwealth ser
vice council are listed in the re
port. The activities include only
the fields of applied research and
technical studies undertaken 'as
service to municipalities and other
governmental or social units, and
research and technological studies
of problems which are concerned
with the operation of the institu
tion itself. General research di
rected primarily toward the ad
vancement of knowledge in speci
fic fields is not included.
Bureaus, Committees Listed
The bureaus included are muni
cipal reference, research and ser
vice, business research, and edu
cational research, and the com
mittees are on institutional re
search, improvement of college
teaching, laboratory procedure,
and appreciation of art and nature.
, Under the direction of the com
monwealth service council, studies
of workmen's compensation, child
welfare institutions, initiative and
referendum, state administration,
taxes, county school organizations,
and others equally important are
under way. The municipal refer
ence bureau is developing a pro
gram for the League of Oregon
Cities, while the bureau of re
search and service is cooperating
with communities in programs of
civic betterment.
The bureau of business research
has under preparation an index of
general business conditions, a sur
vey of tax levies and delinquencies,
and a study of child welfare in
stitutions. The study of cost of
elementary and secondary schools
of the state, as well as services to
school districts, the state admini
stration and other states, occupies
members of the bureau of educa
tional research.

sion of the athletic committee pre
