RECOGNITION WON BY DEANS FROM OREGON (Continued from Page One) around Tokyo, the party proceeded down the tip of the island and across the Japan sea to Fuzan, Korea. From there they went through Kaijo, the capital of Ko rea, then by boat to Peiping. Here Dean Hoyt left the rest of the party and went past the Great Wall to Shanhaikwan and from there to Mukden, Manchuria. He visited Kushan, which has the largest open cut coal mine in the world. It has a vein 130 feet thick and is 130 feet from the surface. It is covered by oil shale from which oil is obtained for the Jap anese fleet. From here he re turned through Korea to Japan and spent seven days touring Ja pan. “The Japanese customs officials were particularly impressed by a party of three deans,” continued Dean Hoyt, “and were constantly inspecting our books and pass ports thinking we were investi gating something. It was prob ably the first time that they had ever seen a party with so many deans. They were particularly on the lookout for communistic prop aganda, having been troubled con sistently by communists. The party has 20,000 right-wing mem bers in Japan, and 7,TOO have been arrested in one year. Recently a gang of communists, including several girls, robbed a bank to ob tain money for their cause, ob taining 32,000 yen, or about $15, 000.” Dean Dandsbury and Dean Hoyt each made short talks to the Ky oto Rotary club, and Dean Hoyt talked to the Mukden Rotary club. In both cases the secretaries took down the speeches in English to translate and read them at the next meeting. Tokyo is essentially a modern city, uncording to Dean Hoyt, re minding one of Paris or Philadel phia. After the earthquake and lire of 1923, it was rebuilt along modern lines. However, it is unique in this respect as the other cities are quaint and old-fashioned. “Business conditions are good along' tourist lines, but underneath the surface things are no better than here. This is demonstrated by the fact that the foreign ex change on the yen is so low," stated Hoyt, who could not help noticing business conditions even though he was on a vacation "for pleasure only.” The party returned also on the GeneTirr Sherman to San Francisco and proceeded to Eugene by rail, where they arrived for the open ing of school. Dean Allen re mained in San Francisco for a few days. 'New Instructors Appear at Initial Faculty Meeting 78 Recommendations for Degrees Are Made; Irving Mather To Get Ph D.

Heuderson, curator of herbarium, and Lin coln Constance, graduate of Oregon University, who is now professor of geology at Berke ley.

While in the game reserve on Hart mountain they saw many deer and antelope. This reserve is noted as the largest of its kind in the world.

The course is in charge of Dean Onthank, but will include instruc tion from two groups of faculty members. The first group will in clude Dr. B. W. DeBusk, Dr. E. S. Taylor, and Dr. H.

School Must Lose Fine Student if No Work is Offered The University of Oregon will lose its brightest freshman, a girl with an excellent high school rec ord, unless a job of some sort turns up within a few days. This exceptional student had hoped that some kind of position that would give her part-time em ployment would be available to her by the time she had entered school here. She has taken the psychological and other prelimi nary examinations and received high honors. She not only passed the “A. C. E." test with the high est grade in the class, but she made the second highest score ever made by an entering student, it was acknowledged by Dr. H. R. Taylor, who is in charge of ex aminations. Miss Janet Smith, secretary of the employment bureau, asks any one who has a job open, or who knows of a position that might be open, to call the employment secretary at the University. The office will get in touch with the student at once.
