Stage of the World (Continued from page one) looks at this militnry coup as a po tential promise of further Japanese penetration into northern China. She knows that if the promise is fulfilled there will be more and more border clashes, until Russian nerves, rubbed raw, will revolt at this stealthy steal of rich coal and iron deposits. War! War, before she is ready. Industrial gains yet to be consolidated, the second Five Year Plan to be completed, the New Military Branch of the Trans Siberian Railway still to be fin ished. This is why Russia doesn't want war. But will she be able to avoid it? The answer will soon be known.

The second was not established until more than six month later in California. The plant was bought in 1855 by William L. Adams from C. L. Goodrich, who owned it at that time. Adams published the first Oregon Argus on April 21. D. W. Craig, the printer, later became sole owner of the Argus and con tinued its publication until October 24, 1863. It was then that the plant was moved from Oregon City to Salem for a merger with the Ore gon Statesman. In 1864, the elder Kincaid brought the press to Eugene to publish the Oregon State Jouranl. The first issue of the weekly appeared on March 12 of that year. Bovard, Washke To Represent UO Plan to Attend Annual PE Convention at St. Louis April 15-18 Dr. John F.

Dully—12:45 Sundays ROTC Question Discussed by Federation Graduated Student Body Card, Merit System in Politics Proposed Representing a successful at tempt to bring the opposing fac tions together, the Oregon Stu dent federation discussed the pros and cons of the optional compul sory military question last night at the first regular business meet ing. Although no definite stand was decided upon, opinions and argu ments presenting both sides of the situation were exchanged. General feeling after the meeting indicated that the discussion had been very successful. A committee to present all ar guments in the form of a brief, and also to investigate the military exemptions committee, was ap pointed by President Paul Prank. Robert and Don Thomas will rep resent the compulsory view, and John Luvaas and Kenneth Phil lips the optional. Questions Proposed The program committee, headed by Richard Halley, presented the military question, possibility of a graduated ASUO card, and pro posal of a merit system in campus political appointments, as meas ures for discussion and action. The graduated student body membership, as presented by Hal ley, and also by Kenneth Phillips, member of the executive council, would be a divided ticket. Students would be allowed to buy as much of it as they desired. Committee Named Upon a motion from the floor Plank also appointed a committee to gather information on the grad uated plan for presentation at the next meeting. David Lowry, first vice-president of the federation, will act as chairman. Other mem bers of the committee are: Edith Clark, Ralph Cathey, and Dan Clark. James Blais, ASUO student body president will act as an ad visory member of the committee. Phillips, in reporting the meet ing of the executive council Thurs day afternoon, said that considera tion of a faculty adviser would be made in the near future. Prof. W. A. Dahlberg. Prof. Victor P. Mor ris, and Prof. Waldo Schumacher were suggested as possible advis ers. They will be contacted by the executive council, to determine whether they will be willing to serve.

Dr. Taylor Complimented on Scholarship Study Dr. Howard Taylor, psychologist, recently received a letter from Dr. Harold E. Meyers commending him for his recent study upon factors which successfully predict scholar ship in the University of Oregon medical school. Dr. Taylor spent several years compiling this research and used several hundred medical students’ records. Dr. Taylor said of the study that, while he realized successful medical school scholarship wasn’t a perfect guarantee of later pro fessional competence and service, students who best understood their school work would probably make the best physicians, since skill in medical practice depends so heav ily upon the application of special ized knowledge and techniques ac quired at school. Dr. Taylor has made a study of methods which are used to fore cast scholarship in medical schools. He found that estimates made by medical school admissions commit tee upon the records and qualifica tions, of the candidate were found to be nearly as accurate as the grades. Scores from the medical aptitude test provided a good check against the estimation of the committee and were found to be of more significance than the scores from the ACE psychologi cal exam used alone. However, partments of the University will go to press today. It will contain information concerning courses of fered in nursing education by the University of Oregon medical school in Portland. Present plans call for Miss Ruth Wheelock to replace Miss Elnora Thomson as director of the nurs ing education school this summer during the latter’s absence. Cours es offered will consist of training in pre-nursing, preparation for public health nursing as well as work for degrees. scores from the psychology test were discovered to be more indica tive of medical school success than were high school grades. The op posite is true in the majority of courses at the University of Ore gon. Dr. Taylor spent more than two years compiling this research which is composed of four separate studies. Records of 423 students were used in making this record. “A study of this kind is particu larly valuable as admission to medical schools is limited and it is important to select for training those who will profit from it most,” said Dr. Taylor.
