Volume on Appreciation of Poetry
To Be Followed by Manual
For Teacher’s Use
Based on the theory that anyone
can be taught appreciation of
poetry, rather than the few who
are literary or poetic minded, a
new volume on appreciation of
poetry, the result of methods dis
covered during his career as a poet
and teacher, has been completed
/ here by Dr. Ernest G. Moll, assist- ;
ant professor of English. The book, j
copies of which have just arrived i
on the campus, has been published
by F. S. Crofts and company of
New York.
The material incorporated in the
book was presented here during
the past year to an experimental
class of students of all levels of ap
preciation and tastes in poetry and
literature. The class, conducted
under the auspices of the Carnegie
corporation of New York, was so
successful that it has attracted na
tional attention.
Project in Research
The project was a part of the
program of research in art now
under way in literature, graphic
arts, and music, and is the first
of a series of publications to come
from this work. Dr. Moll's first
book is to be followed by a teach
er’s manual for using the method
. and later by an anthology of ma
’ terial.
“The teacher of the appreciation
of poetry must first equip his stu
dents with a definite technique of
observation by which they may
learn what poetry is and what it
has to offer them,” Dr. Moll says
in the preface. “He must help them
to an understanding, as complete
and rich as possible, of poetic
meanings. Having thus opened
their eyes, he may expect them to
enter into the life that poetry is.
Entering into it with them, he may
go on to teach them to discrimin
ate and evaluate, to choose one
poetic experience as more valuable
than another, to feed their minds
with that particular stuff which
will best stimulate their individ
ual intellectual and emotional
growth."
Old Methods Abandoned
The old orthodox methods of
teaching an appreciation of poetry
are abandoned by Dr. Moll. The
mechanics of making poetry, the;
details of construction such as j
rhythm, foot-pauses, metrical feet
Y are relegated to the end of the
course. Reading of poetry as an
experience is chosen as the first
topic, and in this Dr. Moll points
out the approaches to study of
poetry, why the poet makes
poems, and attempts to clarify the j
situation. The elements of poetry, i
the reader’s equipment for reinte- j
grating the poet’s experience and |
creative reading are taken up ear
ly in the study.
From this point Dr. Moll goes on
to the senses in poetry, in which
he deals with primary and second
ary qualities of sight, sound, taste,
smell, touch, and kinaesthetic.
Thought in poetry, the poet’s imag
ination, figures of speech in poetry

'T'HE seventh annual "Dad’s Day"
officially began with a good
turnout at the football game last
night. Immediately upon arrival
dads have been registering in the
lobby of Johnson hall. Here they
receive their badges which grant
them the customary privilege of
saying "Hello!” when encounter
ing another. dad or a student as
they tour the campus.
Dads are to be shown any place
in which they are interested. Show
dad the libe, where you spend so
many hours of concentrated study,
the traditional senior bench, stu
dent living quarters and the mill
race. He’s interested!
If dad wishes to confer with the
dean of personnel administration,
dean of men or women, the facul
ty or any administrative officer,
they will be glad to see him.
Dad may like a golf game before
breakfast or lunch. The Eugene
golf courses have issued an invi
tation to dads to play free of
charge on Saturday or Sunday. At
10:30 a. m. the dads will have a
mass meeting in the Guild theater.
Then for a great deal of “How do
you do” as dad meets the gang at
luncheon with son or daughter at
12 noon.
* * *
This morning at S:30 the execu
tive committee will meet for
breakfast in the regents room at
the John Straub Memorial hall.

ident; Thomas H. Tongue jr., Hills
boro, vice-president; Earle Well
ington, Portland, executive secre
tary; Charles C. Hall, Arthur G.
Fields. Edgar W, Smith. Roy T.
Bishop, and Kenneth Beebe, all of
: Portland; Merle R. Chessman, As
Itoria; Carl Haberlach, Tillamook,
aie members of the committee.
Banquets play a prominent part
, in the social festivities this week
end. If the old adage, "The way
to a man's heart is through his
stomach," proves true. Oregon will
be able to claim many enthusias
1 tic dads.
j Sherry Ross hall entertained
, with a dinner dance for 30 mem
j bers of Alpha Chi Omega Thurs
| day evening. Grape vines and col
i ored tapers centered the table.
Gordon Barde was in charge.
Tonight at 6 p. m. the annual
Dad's day dinner will be in full
swing. W. Lair Thompson, presi
dent of the executive committee,
will preside as toastmaster, and
Rev. Milton S. Weber, pastor of the
First Presbyterian church of Eu
gene, will deliver the invocation.
Wayne L. Morse,- dean of the law
school here, will deliver the princi
pal address, and Mrs. Walter M.
Pierce will represent the state
board of higher education.
Mrs. A. M. Dibble, president of
the Oregon mothers, will offer
greetings to all the dads, and Rob
ert K. Allen will represent the al
umni. Thoriias H. Tongue will

body.
Following the speeches the tro
phies for the best attendance of
Dad’s day, will be presented to the
winning houses, and the new offi
cers of the Oregon Dad's associa
tion will be introduced.
The motif for decorations will be
carried out by large baskets of
and worlds of belief in poetry are
all major topics taken up before
he arrives at technical and types
of poetry.
Pleasure Is Objective
“The valid reader of poetry is
one who reads with all his powers
active,” Dr. Moll says in conclu
sion. “He reads for the pleasure
that he finds in form and rhythm,
in thoughts brought to birth
through feeling, in feeling itself, in
color and light and texture, in the
audacity of thought and work and
phrase which, more essentially
than any other one thing, sets poet
ry apart from prose and gives it
a quality of beauty that is entirely
its own.
“And doing this, he reads, not as
critic or appreciator—though he
Is both in one—but as a livirtg man
reaching out, as the poet did when
he made his poem, to that intenser
realization of existence which
comes only when thought takes
shape in words.”
EINZIG TO HEAR MILK
INTERESTS AS TO DEAL
(Continued from Page One)
matter rests entirely with the state
purchasing department.”
Explains Higher Price
The rise in price mentioned
above was agreed upon in draw
ing up the NRA code for the Eu
gene milk shed, it was explained
yesterday. The rise in price was
proportionate to the general up
ward movement of milk prices
throughout the country, it was fur
ther explained.
As to the point that the fratern
ities and sororities are being
charged less than the University,
it was stated by E. G. Harlan, sec
retary of the chamber of com
merce, that less than one-fourth of
the houses are paying the 28-cent
rate. The others are paying 32
cents a gallon. Last spring all
houses made contracts with dis
tributors for milk at 28 cents a
gallon. This fall when the price
went up, house managers, except
about six reformed the contracts
it the 32-cent price in conformance
with the local code.
High Charge Not Denied
That the price paid here is high
er than that paid at other institu
tions was not denied, but it was
pointed out that the conditions un
der which the milk is obtained at
the other institutions is the rea
son. At Corvallis the dormitories
get dairy products from the dairy
department of the school of agri
culture and not from private deal
ers. The fraternities and sororities
there get all supplies through the
cooperative managers’ association
which gets bids on all dairy prod
ucts, thus obtaining lower prices.
Corvallis dairies are not operating
under a city milk ordinance as
are those in Eugene, it was stated.
The large number of institutions
at Salem and the fact that dairy
herds have been maintained by the
state for institutions at Salem was
given as the reason for lower pric
es there. The extent of inspection
at Salem and Monmouth was not
certain here.
The dormitory dining rooms have
been serving grade A milk from
the Eugene Farmer’^ creamery
and the Medo-Land creamery. Both
of these plants and the dairies sup
plying them are operating under
the Eugene and federal milk codes.

An Idyllic Tale
“White Sister” is well worth
seeing. Contrary to the trend of
the day in movies, this is a trag
edy, and it is very effective. Clark
Gable is the dashing and romantic
young army officer, and Helen
Hayes is the romantic minded
daughter of a prince.
The love scenes are very intense,
and a bit too numerous if any
thing. One is left a bit limp. How
ever on the whole it is beautifully
and tastefully done. Miss Hayes
lives up to the name of one of the
finest dramatic actresses on the
screen. Highly recommended.
I hear from one who has read
“The Good Companions” that the
picture follows the book very close
ly. That made the picture for
him.
I will take issue with this atti
tude. Often a story may be inter
esting and of artistic value when
written and yet be uninteresting
as a picture. That is my quar
rel with this picture.
It is English all over, natural

| ly. Often the sound is not intelli
gable, not only because of the ac
I cents, but also because of techni
| cal deficiencies. But the music
j sound is some better than the av
erage American taikie music.
“Penthouse" is a fast-moving
tale of murder and detection. War
ner Baxter as a young attorney,
Myrna Loy as a very willing gal,
Mae Clark as a corpse, and Phillips
Holmes as a suspect.
“The Bowery,’’ which comes up
Sunday, takes some of the most
notorious characters of the gay
nineties and brings them to life.
Fay Wray is the heart interest
and Jackie Cooper will probably
do his stuff as usual.
“Tillie and Gus,’’ also on the
Sunday bill, ought to be a kick in
the neck. W. C. Fields is gener
ally good for a stack of laughs,
and Alison Skipworth probably
doesn't detract any.
