Phi Delta Kappa
To Sponsor Talks
On Education
Progressive Education
Name of New Movement
During the school year of 1935
36, Phi Delta Kappa, men's nation
al honorary fraternity in profes
sional education, will sponsor a
series of public meetings on the
general theme of the “Progressive
Education” movement in America,
and its local implications.
Dr. E. O. Sisson, professor of
education at Reed college, will de
liver the initial address, Monday,
October 14, at 7:30 p. m. in Ger

‘Progressive Education’.”
Superintendent H. R. Gould of
the schools of Eugene, will speak
at the following meeting, Monday,
October 28, at 7:30 p. m. in Ger
linger hall, on the “Critique of the
Concept of ‘Progressive Educa
tion’.”
These men and others to be pre
sented will be able to interpret one
of the most significant develop
ments of the American situation.
The program is expected to
draw considerable attention from
Oregon and Eugene educators and
teachers since the “Progressive
Education” movement has been
making rapid headway elsewhere
in the nation, especially in Cali
fornia, where it has earned the at
tention of the Stanford school of

Final approval of new Univers

Plans now under way to move

Cramped quarters within the

from the ceiling in order to insure
the safety of the building.
Completion of these buildings

Conditions Improved
Says Dean Onthank;
Houses Have Chance
To Appeal to Tribunal
By LEROY MATTINGLY
Using the teeth supplied by the
nter-fraternity council resolution
passed last spring in an effort to
diminate "dirty” rushing, the en
forcement. committee fines and
•ulings were announced at the
council meeting last night.
The houses fined and the
unounts were:
Alpha Tau Omega, $30.
Delta Tau Delta, $10.
PI Kappa Alpha, $5.
Phi Gamma Delta, $5.
Phi Sigma Kappa, $10 and a
pledge revoked.
Sigma Alpha Epsilon, $10.
Sigma Chi, $5.
Sigma Nu, $45.
Theta Chi, $30.
The living organizations against
which fines have been levied will
have a chance to appeal to the
tribunal which will meet Tuesday
ifternoon.
Details of the offenses for which
the fines were levied were an
nounced at the meeting. They in
cluded breaking the rushee’s dates
without his permission, refusing
information as to the whereabouts
of rushees known to be in the
house, rushing after the hour of
L0:30 set as the dead line in the
agreement passed last spring, and
rushing men not properly regis
tered.
“Rushing conditions this year
were better than last year,” Karl
W. Onthank, dean of personnel and
idministration told the council
nembers. Onthank said in a brief
statement, that despite improve
ment shown, the council would
lever get to first base with com
pletely clean rushing until the fra
ernities were willing to stand by
;he committee and accept its de
cisions.
Onthank also emphasized the
fact that the council could not
lope to succeed without enforce
ment of its rulings.
All motions regarding the con

ires rushed through the Saturday

Quick9 John, the Blue and
Gold! Band Needs U.C, ’sSong
"Please, Mister, could you tell
me the official California song—
they change so often," might very
well be the theme song of the
"Mighty University of Oregon
Band” and of John H. Stehn, con
ductor, judging by the 15 minute
conference that was held in the
band' room last night. The entire
group sat in awed silence when
Stehn propounded the question.
Various songs were suggested
including a grand entry march by
Oregon of “California Here We
Come!" but no one was exactly
sure.
So the band tried rousing school
song after song (because "John"
has been collecting them from
month to month, as fast as Cali
fornia turns them out). Two
sounded like funeral dirges and
the rest were—school songs.
At any rate the band has tried
them all and when and if somebody
tells them which is the real Mc
Coy, they are set.
The band, snappy in new uni
forms, will leave Eugene on the
12:20 train this morning along
with the team and any others
whose class schedules don’t con
flict.
According to the present plan,
the band will march from the Un
ion station into Portland, take up
its temporary residence at the Im
perial hotel and then during the
evening, will serenade down-town
Portland, appear at banquets, the
aters and radio stations, ending up
at the big Oregon rally some time
between 10:30 and 11 p. m.
A good selection of new num
bers has been added to the band’s
repertoire and it is expected that
their showing will be one of the
finest the University and Port
land have ever witnessed.
