UO Faculty Members Write Books Used as College Texts Books written by faculty mem bers of the University of Oregon hold an important place in the realm of higher education, in the opinion of Manager M. F. McClain of the University Co-op. and he has the facts to prove it. When interviewed today, McClain called attention to text books by Oregon faculty members that are being used in university courses. "Principles of Adolescent Psy chology,” by Dr. Edmund S. Conk lin, psychology professor at the University of Oregon for more than 20 years and who is now in the psychology department at Indiana University, is one of the most re cent books to be used in university curricula. The book is considered by authorities to be the outstand ing work on the subject since the publication of text by Dr. G. Stan ley Hall of Clark University, Wor cester, Massachusetts, under whom Dr. Conklin studied for his doctor’s degree. The book, published this year by Henry Holt and Co., is dedicated to the faculty and students of the University of Oregon. "Principles of Abnormal Psy chology,” and "The Psychology of Religious Adjustment,” are two other books written by Dr. Conk lin that are also used as texts here. "Progressive Methods of Teach ing in Secondary Schools,” by Dr. Nelson L. Bossing, recently pub lished, is being used in education courses. “Tests and Measurements in Physical Education,” by Dr. J. F. Bovard, dean of the school of physi cal education here, and Dr. Fred erick W. Cozens of the University of California, at Los Angeles, serves as a college text. Professor J. C. McCloskey’s work, “Handbook of Business Cor respondence” is being used by the English department as a text. Pro fessor McCloskey, former Oregon faculty member, is now at Oregon State college. The English department is using two books by Professor Ernest G Moll. These are "Appreciation of Poetry,” and “Readings in Poetry.” In addition to these there are three books of poems by Professor Moll, or. sale in the trade book depart men of the Co-op. The titles are, “Sedge Fire,” “Native Moments,” and "Campus Sonnets.” “The Craft of the Critic,” and the “Style Rule,” by Professor S. Stephenson Smith, are being used in English department courses, Mc Clain said. Another book used by the Eng lish department is “Learning Lan guage,” by L. K. Shumaker, assis tant professor of English. The book ir in mimeographed form. "Printing for the Journalist,” by Eric W. Allen, dean of the school of journalism is used in that school. “The Law of the Press,” by Wil liam G. Hale, former dean of the law school, who is now at the Uni versity of Southern California, is also used as an authority. Professor Charles G. Howard, of the law school, has also contribut ed to the list of books used here. In conjunction with Essel R. Dilla vou of the University of Illinois, he wrote “Principles of Business Law.” a parallel translation 01 Goethes Faust by Professor F. G. G. Schmidt is used in ttie department of Germanic languages and litera ture, of which Professor Schmidt is the head. A parallel translation. McClain explained, is one in which opposite pages of the book carry the original text and the transla tidn. This book, published in Leip zig, Germany, is a remarkably fine example of the German bookbind er's art, McClain stated. Professor Schmidt has also edited several translations of other German clas sics. Manfred Kyber's "Tiergescbich ten," a collection of animal stories, was edited by Professor Edmund P. Kremer. also of the department of Germanic languages and litera ture. Professor O. F. Stafford's “Gen eral Chemistry Syllabus'" is used in teaching that subject. “Introduc tion of Organic Chemistry," and the “Laboratory Manual of Organ ic Chemistry,” by Dr. Roger J. Wil liams, are the texts for the course. Formerly here, Dr. Williams is now at Oregon State college. Pro fessor Williams also wrote “Iintro duction to Bio-Chemistry” in col laboration with R. A. Brewster. "An Outline of Physics” and an accompanying laboratory manual by Dr. A. E. Caswell are in use in the University of Oregon. Four textbooks of mathematics, by Oregon faculty members, are being used. They are “Introductory Mathematics,” by Dr. W. E. Milne and Dr. R. D. Davis; “College Algebra,” “Trigonometry,” and “Elements of the Theory of In finite Processes,” by Dr. Lloyd L. Smail. None of these men are on this campus now, however, Mc Clain stated, Dr. Milne being at Oregon State college, Dr. Davis at State Teachers’ college at Mont clair, New Jersey, and Dr. Smail at Lehigh University. In the sociological field, Dr. P. A. Parsons’ “Introduction to Mod ern Social Problems,” and “Crime and the Criminal,” are both now in use. “Philosophical Ideas in the Unit ed States,” by Dr. Harvey Gates Townsend is used as a text. Besides these, McClain pointed out, there are numerous other books by Oregon faculty members, v/hich, while not in use now, are used periodically, many according to the terms in which certain courses are offered. Numerous other books, works of even more scholarly nature, by members of the faculty, are sold by the Co-op, although they are r.ot used as texts. Notable among these are “The Donne Tradition," by Dr. George Williamson, “The Servant Problem in English Litera ture,” by Professor Mary Hallo well Perkins, and “The Villain as Hero,” by Dr. C. V. Boyer, presi dent of the University of Oregon. "The Villain as Hero” and “The Donne Tradition” have been pub lished both in England and the United States. That “The Donne Tradition” is highly regarded is shown by the fact that in the Eng lish publisher’s catalogue all the books were listed in a double row on each page, but Dr. Williamson's book was advertised by a one-inch banner straight across a double page.

That Oregon men are versed in elementary courtesies was main tained by 100 girls, while 39 said they are not. The men fell down when it came to making dates a polite distance in advance. It would seem that 72 girls have to expect a man to call at ten minutes to eight to inform her that they leave in fifteen min utes, while 53 girls fmd men kind enough to call a day in advance. One hundred-three girls can satisfy their appetites after dances, while 36 girls have had the bitter experience of going home hungry. Flowers apparently are occasion ally received by 69 happy women on the Oregon campus, while al most as many, 66 to be exact, claim that men do not send flowers • Twenty-nine girls must act in the capacity of veritable bench warmers while their enamorates sit in their living rooms. On the other hand 99 women say that men take them out more than they sit at home. One hundred - seventeen girls, compared to 23, dislike the new vogue of dirty cords. And in the form of a great sur prise came the news that 24 women enjoy to be called names by men, even though 112 dislike it. Perhaps they figured their answer on the basis of the old adage "stick and stone may hurt my bones.” It seems that girls of today m?.y have confidence in her man, if the opinion of the majority is to be trusted. Eighty girls are not one bit fearful about the condition of her escort after a party, while 25 must apparently be on the lookout. And now are the men set up? Just the same, now they have a record to uphold. SEZ SUE Virginia Wellington Patsy Neal FASHION PREVIEWS SEEIN'S BELIEVIN’:. ..
