Clark Declares History
Proves Nothing Is New
Someone once said, "history proves that history proves nothing
at all.”
R. C. Clark, head of the history department, believes that history
proves too much, because there is nothing new, and everything moves
in cycles.
Projects are proposed that have been proposed in the past, such
as President Roosevelt's proposal of adding more men to the jury.
"In 1809, Senator H. Williams,
from Oregon, was a Republican
leader under Grant, and proposed
that from 15 to 18 men be includ
ed in the jury Republicans were
all for this proposal then, but now
are violently against it. If Repub
licans look in their history they
would learn that history proves
too much,” Dr. Clark says.
"[f people knew more history it
would give them more of a bal
ance," continued Clark, and they
wouldn’t oppose things so violently
which they upheld in the past. An
argument against the proposed
plan is that the courts would be
packed by the president’s backers,
but history proves that the courts
have been packed, and with only
nine men.
Washington packed the court to
begin with, and when Jefferson
stepped forward for his adminis
tration he found the courts against
him. By the time of the Civil war
the jury was packed with southern
slave-holders. Since that war the
conservatives have been in the ma
jority.
President Roosevelt proposes a
change in accord with modern
times. This change is a repetition
of a movement led by the first
Roosevelt called the “Square
Deal," which is similar to Franklin
Roosevelt’s “New Deal.”
If people knew more correct, un
biased history they would know
how fo deal with all the “modern
changes” from the lessons learned
by the changers of the past, is Dr.
Clark's opinion.

Robert Garretson '
In Piano Recital
Beethoven’s Work Leading
Number in Last Night’s
Musieal Group
With unusual skill of technique
and interpretation, Robert C.arret
son, piano student of George Hop
kins, presented a recital ranging
from Bach to Rachmaninoff, in the
music auditorium last night.
The program began with the ma
jestic "Organ Prelude in G Minor”
by Bach. It was followed by Scar
latti's "Pastorale and Cappriccio.”
Beethoven’s "Sonata, Opus 81a,"
which was the real feature of the
recital, was in three movements -
Farewell, Absence, and Return.
Schumann’s "Novelette in F Ma
jor,” a powerful number of mili
tary nature, opened the next group
of selections. The Chopin “Noc
turne in C sharp minor,” a pen
sive, melancholy selection, was
especially well-done. The "Magic
Fire Music” from Wagner’s “Die
Walkure” opera, was transcribed
for the piano by Brassin.
The outstanding number in Mr.
Garretson’s last group was “The
Island Spell” by Ireland. The fly
ing "Humoresque" by Rachmanin
off, Ibert’s humorous "The Little
White Donkey,” and the Faure
Maier "Apres un Reve” were all
done with exceptional tone and
skill in execution. "Rhapsody in
C major” by Dohnanyi was the
concluding number of the concert,
and was followed by Mr. Garret
son’s encore number, "The Min
strels” by Debussy.

Rythmic Vitality Sought
In Oriental Art Studies
Rhythmic vitality, the supreme aim of the Oriental artist for cen
turies, is the element which members of Miss Maude Kerns’ design
classes are seeking to portray in their original work, which has taken
them to the Oriental Art museum for the past two weeks.
Since Jiro Harada lectured on the campus last year, students have
shown themselves as having a much more appreciative background
for the study of Oriental art, Miss Kerns said yesterday when ques
tioned about the work of the art
students.
“We are studying the Japanese
prints and the Chinese paintings
to see how the Orientals express
ihythm with landscape forms,” she
said. "We are also studying the
structural organization of their
works.
“In order to appreciate this
work,” she said, indicating several
of the students’ own creations,
showing studies of mountains, j
mists, foliage, rocks portrayed in
unusual colors, “it is necessary to
know that the highest aim of the
painter in Japan, as was the case
in China also, has been to repre
sent everything he paints in its
proper relation to the infinite.
"Thus these studies are done in
arbitrary colors, which means non
realistic coloring, not found in na
ture,’’ she added.

Records Reveal
Weather Cycles
Tree records of Oregon's climate
for the past several hundred years
show that there have been regular
cycles of wet and dry years, and
that present conditions of syste
matic wet and dry years are not
new to the state.
This, F. P. Keen, U. S. ento
mologist, pointed out last night
at Condon hall, in a speech before
Sigma Xi, science honorary.
“A Tree Ring Record of Ore
gon's Climate" was the title of the
talk. Keen pointed out how it can
be told when droughts are coming
through the study of tree rings.
Prior to the meeting, Oregon and
Oregon State chapters of Sigma
Xi met in a joint banquet at the
Anchorage, honoring the Oregon
State chapter's newly acquired na
tional membership in the society.
W. A. Miller, instructor in physics
at Oregon, was awarded a letter
of commendation for his recent re
