The Oregon Daily Emerald, official student publication of

The Emerald’s Creed for Oregon
“ . . . . There la always the human temptation to
forget that the erection of buildings, the formulation of
new curricula, the expansion of departments, the. crea
tion of new functions, and similar routine duties of
the administration are but means to an end. There is
always a glowing sense of satisfaction in the natural
impulse for expansion. This frequently leads to regard
ing achievements as ends in themselves, whereas the
truth is that these various appearances of growth and
achievement can be justified only in so far as they
make substantial contribution to the ultimate objec
tives of education .... providing adequate spiritual
and intellectual training for youth of today—the citi
zenship of tomorrow. ...
“ . . . . The University should be a place where
classroom experiences and faculty cont&cts should stimu
late and train youth for the most effective use of all
the resources with which nature has endowed them. Dif
ficult und challenging problems, typical of the life
and world in which they are to live, must be given
them to solve. They must be taught under the expert
supervision of instructors to approach the solution of
these problems in a workmanlike way, with a dis
ciplined intellect, with a reasonable command of the
techniques that i re involved, with a high sense of in
tellectual adventure, and with a genuine devotion to the
ideals of intellectual integrity. . . .”—From the Biennial
Report of the University of Oregon for 1931-32.
The American people cannot be too careful in
guarding the freedom of speech and of the press
against curtailment as to the discussion of public
affairs and the character and conduct of public
mCn. —Carl Schurz.
A SPRING MEDITATION
, and thcra err vac worlds palorc, in their silence so
dumb, awaiting the Columbus who nwvcr will conn . . ."
THE LATEST assault on the ramparts of Ml.
Everest is something for our loungers to think
about. For the past several years — ever since
money ceased to be the rule and became the ex
ception- there have been in our midst those who
have regarded graduation as the start of a long
period in which it would be impossible for them to
lind either employment or occupation. To combat
such a distressing situation, they stopped wasting
their time on their studies and began frequenting
dance halls and card-rooms. Why read books and
follow current events when there will be so much
time later on for a fellow to do that sort of stuff?
Better have a good time while the getting's good.
What can a fellow do when he gets out of here?
Hasn't everything been done that’s worth doing?
So it would not be amiss for those who deplore
the absence of opportunity to consider thought
fully the expedition now lifting its eyes to Ihe crest
of the loftiest mountain on earth. The possible
ascent of Everest is of no particular significance
to the college loafer, but the spirit and tenacity and
indomitableness inspiring its attempt cannot be
overlooked. Opportunity and chances may be diffi
cult to find in these days of ever-increasing im
provements, but exist they will as long as man
continues in his tenacious drive to conquer. A
score of valiant argonauts have perished in unsuc
cessful attempts to scale the great peak of the
Himalayas. But there will be no peace between
mankind and the great brute of ice and stone until
that lofty summit is surmounted.
QINCE the dawning of civilization, in the prinii
^ tivc days when man lived like n beast of the
field, progress and advancement anil valor have
been watchwords of the leaders of the human race.
Failure never was accepted; and failure never will
be accepted. Everest may continue to throw back
the human pigmies Unit assault its stony cliffs,
hut always more will follow to replace those who
fail. If Everest's peak remains uncompleted for
two centuries and more, man will continue to look
skyward at its far-flung crest. It is possible that
no human ever will look down on the world from
Everest’s summit, but man wilt continue to at
tempt the deed as long as there is life on the face
of the earth.
The courage and tenacity back of the frequent
attacks at Everest are potent reasons why we
should not stumble into lackadaisical ruts merely
because the opportunity for success looms a little
more intangible than before. There still are count
less trails over which the argonauts of knowledge
cun tramp. Let us not have in our midst the
anomoly of discouraged youths in an hour when
the world needs youthful leaders more than it ever
did before.

^T'HOSE who give up the gho: t and seek the uno
dyne of stolen pleasure ami enjoyment arc
traitors to a great cause. They should not be per
mitted to remain to taint those with more concen
tration of purpose. Ear better for them to make
no attempts at work than to abandon their tasks
completely. Let those with determination and in
telligence utilize those qualities to the greatest
advantage.
Opportunities are as uuiucrous as they ever were.
Jt only icquirca a little more npuak and gray
matter than it did before. There are great days
ahead of us. Events loom on the horizon, not the
least of which is a growth of liberalism and toler
ance. Youth should be prepared for those days.
Enjoyment and fieeting moments of wasted pleasure
will not achieve that preparation. It must be at
tained by tenacity, courage and the will to succeed
—qualities which have urged men on to the loftiest
spot on earth ever since Sir George Everest set
eyes on the imposing bulwark of Nature that bears
his name.
WE WELCOME A DIPLOMAT
rpHE EYES of the world turn to the University
■*- of Oregon campus today, for it is here that
Yosuke Matsuoka, Japan's representative at Geneva,
makes his first public address since the start of his
visit to the United States.
With the exception of interviews to newspaper
men, Mr. Matsuoka has made no public utterances
since his arrival in this country. His entire visit
has been surrounded with much of that restraint
from unnecessary publicity so common to the realm
of diplomatic affairs. Matsuoka's real business has
been completed at Geneva. There has been no
actual need for him to turn his visit to the country
he visited as a student into a speaking tour.
We are proud that the University and Eugene
are the first to hear the message that this man
has for America. If his speech is not something
more than just "Glad to be back again,” thousands
of people will be disappointed. We do not ask for
"dynamite," but we do ask for something that is
full of meaning and significance, something that
will help us to understand the position of Japan
in the present state of political and economic af
fairs.
We may not be able to agree with the position
Matsuoka has taken at Geneva, but we are anxious
to listen to his message and to hear directly from
him the Japanese side of the question.
Last fall we welcomed to our campus three
young men from Japan ,who brought with them
the good-will of that country. A little later we
listened to the message of Dr. Inazo Nitobe. We
were especially glad to have these representatives
of Japanese youth and Japanese statesmanship on
our campus, pleading for international peace and
friendship. But we rejoice much more to have
Yosuke Matsuoka here today, for he is one of our
own alumni.
The keys to the campus are yours, Mr. Matsu
oka. We want the friendship we extend to you
to cross the sea to your native land so that there
may be between our youth and yours, our people
and yours, our nation and yours, an enduring peace
and lasting good-will.
WE REITERATE ON BEER
BECAUSE of the rumors that the campus beer
boundaries hiight be extended upon pressure
from University authorities, we herewith reaffirm
our position on the lager situation.
It is the conviction of the Emerald that beer
should be permitted in no student living organiza
tions. Such a stand already has been taken by
school officials and we are heartily in accord with
it. However, we do not agree with the basis on
which a restricted area recently was laid out
around the campus. If beer can be 'sold within two
or four blocks of the University, why not adjacent
to it ? The underlying principle is identical in both
instances. The beverage can be dispensed in direct
juxtaposition to high schools. Certainly we are
more to be trusted with beer of 3,2 per cent con
lent than prep school pupils.
On those major premises the Emerald takes its
stand. We are emphatically opposed to the limited
zone around the campus. We are heartily in favor
of the regulation barring beer from living organi
zations.

Teachers Doing Their Furl
REPORTS from the teachers represented in con
vention at Minneapolis by their leaders make
clear that they are ready to do their full part.
When it becomes clear in any community, said the
chairman of the joint commission on the emergency
in education, that larger classes, administration
economies and salary reductions are the only alter
natives, but one choice is possible. "We would
prefer to make personal sacrifices rather Ilian have
the children denied their educational birthright.”
Such is the loyalty of the hundreds of thousands
of school teachers of America. When they speak
in metaphor of “fighting” it is not for themselves
but for the children. The minister of education in
France during- the war used to speak of the pupils
with their teachers as the second line of defense.
Uut. our teachers have now, in a sense, to move
up to the front line and share in the sacrifices of
the moment.
The superintendents, prineipals and teachers
have selected seven of their number to advise com
munities what to do in the presence of tlie problems
which confront them. All will agree with Dr.
Strayer that relief for those who are out of work
and in distress must conic first. Most of us will go
further with him and question “whether there are
any other obligations that take priority over edu
cation." There is no immediate outcry from those
deprived of it. Were they “bruised with adversity"
there would he humanitarian response. But their
loss will show itself grievously as the years go on:
and thej will come to feel that we who have in
herited much from the past have held hack some
thing of their portion if we do not do all that is
within the limit, of our power.
It is not one thing more to be put off upon the
federal government. The stales must try to keep
up their school funds, it is espei ially incumbent
upon communities to surround the schools with
evidence: of interest and appreciation of tiie teach
ers' part. It were better for one who unnecessarily
caused a child “to stumble'' or “to offend" that "a
millstone were hanged about his neck and he were
thrown into the sea." These are not meek words,
but they were spoken by one who also said that
the meek would inherit the earth. The service of
the teachers is. after all, one of meekness. Patience
and gentleness are the prime virtue , of those who
are to lead children in the way of light. But by all
mean let the teachers proclaim throughout Amer
ica the needs of her children. By tlieir own sacri
fices they have earned the right to ask the public
to be mindful of those whose wolfai-, -h.-uld be our
Brat toucan.—Mew York Time -

The Oregon State System of Higher Education
(This is one of a series of articles describing the various schools and
departments under the system pul into effect at the start of the current
college year by the stale board of higher education.)
Fine Arts
CALEM, April 6.— (Special) —
^ Providing for major curricula
in, nine different fields of art, ar
chitecture and music, the organiza
tion of the school of fine arts in
the Oregon state system of higher
education is complete in every de
tail.
The school of fine arts has been
formed from the consolidation of
the schools of music and architec
ture and allied arts at the Univer
sity of Oregon and related courses
in the school of basic arts and sci
ences and the department of land
scape architecture at Oregon State
college into this one division.
Ellis F. Lawrence, dean of the
old school of architecture and al
lied arts at the University is dean
of the new school, with headquar
ters at Eugene. Dean Lawrence
received his bachelor and master
degrees from Massachusetts Insti
tute of Technology and has been
a member of the Oregon faculty
for 18 years. He has been the Uni
versity architect for several years
and has designed many of the
| newer buildings on the Eugene
campus.
* * *
The school offers almost identi
cal courses for freshmen and soph
omores both at Eugene and at Cor
vallis but has its center at Eugene
where all major work is given in
architectural design, landscape ar
chitecture, painting, sculpture,
general art, interior design, normal
art and music.
In architecture and art, lower
division courses are offered on both
campuses in drawing, painting,
color and composition, decorative
design, art appreciation, history of
art, house planning and landscape
architecture.
Under the new plan of the board
j of higher education, music is a di
vision of the school of fine arts
with practically the same work of
i fered on the two campuses as in
the past. Dr. John L. Landsbury
] of the University is director of
music courses. Major work in mu
i sic leading to degrees of bachelor
of science, bachelor of arts, bach
■ elor of arts, bachelor of music and
i bachelor of music education are
1 offered only at Eugene. There are
j departments of piano, voice, organ,
violin, stringed and wind instru
ments, public school music and
structure and history of music.
Offerings at Corvallis include
courses in theory, piano, organ,
singing, violin and band instru
ments as in the past under the di
rection of Professor Paul Petri.
* * *
Because of the nature of some
of its instructional work, the
school of fine arts offers two com
bination courses in which students
spend parts of their college car
eers on both campuses. These are
courses leading to degree in land
scape architecture and structural
design in architecture. Landscape
architecture students will spend
four years on the Eugene campus
and one year at Corvallis, taking
advantage of resources of the
schools of agriculture and engin
eering while they are on the Cor
vallis campus. A joint curriculum
in structural design in architecture
is given by the school of fine arts
at Eugene and tHe school of en
gineering at Corvallis 'with stu
dents spending two yc^rs on each
campus. *• * *
A saving oi approximately 10
per cent has been effected by the
reorganization of these schools, the
board estimates. By increasing
teaching loads, no needed work will
be curtailed, although the com
bined stjiff has been decreased
from the present faculty of 47 to
44, two of whicli will be on,leave
of absence next year.
The faculty at Eugene follows:
architecture and arts—Ellis F.
Lawrence, dean and professor;
Percy Paget Adams, Andrew McD.
Vincent, W. R. B. Willcox, profes
sors; Nowland B. Zane, associate
professor; Wallace S. Hayden,
Maude I. Kerns, Victoria Avakian,
Eyler Brown (on leave), Lance
Wood Hart, Fred O. Harris (on
leave), assistant professors; Grace
I. Ash, Oliver L. Barrett, Louise
Barrows Schroff, instructors; Nell
G. Best, assistant. Landscape ar
chitecture—Herbert O. Sinnard, in
structor. Music—Dr. John L.
Landsbury, director and professor;
Anne Landsbury Beck, Arthur
Boardman, John Stark Evans,
George Hopkins, Mme. Rose Mc
Grew, Jane Thacher, Rex Under
wood, professors; Louis P. Artau,
Aurora Potter Underwood,' assist
ant professors; Roy Griffin Bry
son, John Stehn, Lora Teshner,
Doris Helen Patterson, instructors;
George Barron, graduate assist
ant.
Corvallis faculty members are
as follows: architecture and arts—
J. Leo Fairbanks, professor; Doro
thy May Bourke, Ida Martha Mat
sen, instructors. Landscape archi
tecture Arthur L. Peck, profes
i sor; Fred A. Cuthbert, assistant
I professor. Music— Paul Petri, Lil
■ lian Jeffrys Petri, Harry L. Beard.
; Albert Creitz, professors; Byron
' Arnold, Florence Bowden, instruc
i tors; Coral Evelyn Ausve, Flora
McCoy Garner, assistant instruc
\ tors.
The only transfer is Mr. Sinnard
from Corvallis to Eugene. Profes
sor Zane and Dr. Landsbury will
give some courses at Corvallis and
Professor Peck and Mr. Cuthbert
will spend part of their teaching
time at Eugene.

purchased got sucked under.

The “Spring Salon”
To the Editor of tlic Emerald:
Sir: It is very neat of the art
department to make April con
vincing by opening the doors on
its ‘‘Spring Salon." There is noth
ing quite like strong afternoon
sunlight to make it pleasant to
step into their cool, unwindowed
gallery and forage on color. For,
after all, whatever comment on
us and our experience the painter
may attempt, his prime function
is to say what he has to say in
the language of greens, or blues,
or yellows, or reds. Nine-tenths of
of those who treat themselves to
a half hour at this exhibit will pass
up Mr. Forrest’s skillful drawings
of Italian walls and towers as the
diary jottings of an architect
afoot. Their structural boldness,
making- varied use of the center of
the page, and their firm delicacy
of detail will arrest mainly those
who have themselves been leaning
over the drafting table. But when
this same artist enriches larger
architectural patterns with color,
the planes*and angles of Foamina
walls and the spires of Chartres
pacify the excitement which the
April sun has stirred in the retina
of the mere color-hunter. Still,
there hovers that unsatisfying
sense of the sketch, of impersonali
ty and incompleteness. Hasn't it
been said that painting begins and
ends with the human form divine ?
Even a still-life of dahlias or cof
fee-cups have about it a sense of
human relationships, of the casual
or prim fingers that arranged or
strewed its objects. But four
teenth century buildings don't ar
range easily, and Mr. Forest's cool
blue architect's eye can look deep
er for something.

has another architecturally1
trained brush. But doesn’t he
strive harder for that something
or somewhat ? He is quite mad
about color. A cellar of barrels
bursts into a ballet of greens; un
pretending factory walls find
themselves empurpled. If you have
turned back to him from Mr. For
est's Italy, go to the other end of
the gallery and let his colors have
their full chance. You may lose
sureness of what they adorn, but
they are there for you. Really
now, you may say, if only Mr. For
est’s cleverness of design and Mr.
Weatherwax’s urge for pigment
could be brought into one canvas.
Precisely, and wouldn’t you like
to meet Miss Mary Kirkwood? But
then you had already been looking
at the south and west walls, just
saving up the best.
It isn't always true that bigness
means courage too. In Miss Kirk
wood’s case this seems to be truf.
She can take a large canvas and
use it all, even elbowing her frame
at times, yet without worrying her
space areas. For example, that
finely perceived negro boy, a care
less triangle of brown flesh caught
between magenta and rose. Here
is color that speaks out and puz
zles and brings you back. Balanc
ing Brown Soul Dreaming of Pur
ple (Miss Kirkwood is kind enough
to let us name the picture for our
selves ) is blase and blue-green. Is j
it less satisfying because, as the j
greatly inferior face betrays, the!
artist understood the youth less
well ? Only the firmly rounded up
per-arm beneath the green-ringed
jersey must be remembered. Miss
Kirkwood’s girls are strong, but
are largely cut off from us with
no self-contained objectivity to
atone. Not knowing what to say
in favor of the woman in the Rose
Blouse, she carefully pastes uncon
congenial colors on the non-exist
ent background, and the Girl with
Black Hair is merely advertised
with a non-essential band of costly
blue.
Yes, Miss Kirkwood can give us
color and do it knowingly. Watch
her transposing of colors in a nude
pastoral of post-impressionistic
bathers. Even the landscape seems
stripped and reduced to wounded
colors and disturbed oppositions of
forms. Is this work merely deriva
tive ? At least Picasso asserted
that an artist may ’s’amuser.’ An
outpost of grain elevators and
sheds clustered at some junction
known only to railway timetables
is not derivative nor merely amus
ing. The pitching of color against
color, the fascination with greens
and browns cooled by areas of
gray here achieve that union of
structural forms and color which
the other painters of the exhibit
less fully explored, tjt will pay to
examine again that drooping left
wrist and hand of the colored boy.
It may be soul or it may be so
ciology, but certainly something
is both seen and felt there.
Miss Kirkwood's’ fresco-tenden
cies in color are beautifully intro
| duced by the work of Mr. Hart
and his students in the enriched
lobby and hallways which lead to
the gallery. The saga of fisher
folk beautifully culminates in the
cascades of fruit and vegetable
forms at the far end of the corri
dor. Perhaps you will step back j
into the April sunlight feeling that,
after all, these constitute the most
important thing that has happened
in Eugene for some time.
* * *
And, by the way, inasmuch as
the Louvre and most respectable
art museums boast some acoustic
phenomena, whisper to the fish
wife in blue in the southwest cor
ner of the lobby and have a friend
you can trust put his or her ear
in the opposite corner. Be sure it
is someone you can trust.

With drinking banned in all fra

by the University and with severe
penalties placed on intoxication by
all Greek letter organizations, it
was believed generally yesterday
that there would be no undue con

belief was based more on the atti

Matsuoka’s address today will be
of more than local importance, for
press associations will be eager to
send the nation’s newspapers the
Japanese diplomat’s words at his
only public address in the United
States.
Although Matsuoka was gradu
ated from the University of Ore
gon school of law in 1900, he
probably never attended classes on
the Eugene campus. He was
graduated from the Atkinson
grammar school in Portland, sell
ing coffee as a means of support
ing himself. Then he attended
the Oakland, California, high
school, and finally entered the
University law school, at that time
located in Portland. He received
the second highest rating in his
class at graduation.
The diplomat left Tokyo on
October 21, bound for Geneva. He
was given full power by the Jap
anese government to decide wheth
er he would have war or peace
