Master Printer Nash
Returns to Oregon
By PATRICIA ERICKSON
Master craftsman, artist worker, a man recognized as one of the
world’s greatest printers is John Henry Nash of San Francisco, who
is the main speaker for the dedication of the new library Saturday,
October 23. Robert Carr Hall, superintendent of the University press,
Jescribes Nash as a lovable character, interested in young people, and
i great inspiration lo une siuucuw
3f typography.
Born in Canada in 1871, Nash
began his printing career as an ap
prentice in the shop of James Mur
ray, master printer of Toronto. “He
remains, as he began, a craftsman;
md because Providence filled him
,vith recklessness, out of the craft
of his hands he has made beautiful
Dooks not made before, and so he is
an artist,” says Edward F. O’Day
in a biography he has written of
Nash.
Interested in Press
Dean Eric W. Allen first made
Mr. Nash's acquaintance, and
:hrough him the rest of the Univer
sity was able to do so, at a press

conference some fifteen years ago,
says Mr. Hall. Hearing of the Uni- j
versity press, Mr. Nash became
interested in it, and has since been
its benefactor and inspiration.
Each year, the typography class
prints a book. Mr. Nash very gene
rously donates ideas about the kind
of type to be used and the general
printing of the book. Often he
donates paper, and type from his
own press. This section of the Uni
versity printing work is known as
the John Henry Nash Fine Arts
Press.
Has Oregon Degree
In 1925, the University of Oregon
conferred upon Mr. Nash the de
gree of doctor of letters, because of
his kindness to and interest in the
University.
Mr. Nash is the owner of a mar
velous collection of rare books.
Some of them are the finest in the
world, and among the rarest, espe
cially his collection of incunabula
or “cradle books.” Of some of
these there are only one or two
copies in the world, and they have
a tremendous value. Some of these
books will be shown by Mr. Nash
Saturday night, October 23, when
he will give a lecture and exhibit
in the browsing room of the lib
rary.
Among famous books printed by
Mr. Nash is Ideal Book or Book
Beautiful, Cobden-Sanderson’s fa
mous tract, printed in 1916. Of this
Cobden-Sanderson wrote, “What a
perfectly beautiful book you have
made of The Book Beautiful! I am
enchanted with it! Paper, type, ar
rangement, all combined under
your clever hands to a whole which
is at once a ‘thing of beauty’ and
a symbol of that great order touch
ed with delight which I am never
tired of finding to be the supreme
characteristic of the universe it
' self!”
The University Press printed The
Book Beautiful several years ago
as its yearly printing project. Mr.
, Nash gave freely suggestions as to
type and design for this printing.

IRUN, Spain — General Fran

on Gijon, last government strong
hold on Spain's northern coast, and
ran up the red and gold flag of
fascism yesterday.
Convinced that further fighting
was useless, Asturians and Basques :
overthrew the anarchists who had
been ruling the city and made the
way clear for the rebel troops, still
three miles away, to enter.
Yesterday Franco took the first
step toward the building of a new

that the interstate commerce com

to climb back up the ladder with
some issues going up $1 to $3
higher in a strong last-hour rally.
As the situation stood yesterday
at closing, the average price of 60
stocks are the highest they have
been since last Thursday. They
averaged $1.10 higher than the day ;

Revive Old Custom
Of Pledge Oratories
By BOB POLLOCK
The old days, contrary to natural law, are going to be what they
used to be. As a matter of fact, reliable sources state, these old days
are going to be even better than they used to be.
Oldsters on the Oregon campus will recall with many a chuckle in
which neophytes of Sigma Delta
Chi, men's national journalism hon
orary, used to give on the steps of
the now WPA’s libe.
For many a moon, as the saying
goes, the grand old custom lan
guished as only a grand old custom
can. It got so pledges to the honor
ary couldn't make speeches any
where except at the banquet just
prior to initiation.
Speeches to Return
But now times have changed.
The speeches have been allowed to
return. Promises are that they
will be as amusing as ever, al
though they will be toned down
from pungency of former days.
The location of their renaissance
is to be the balconies of the new
libe and the neophytes will strut
their stuff whenever the formal
dedication services for the new libe
are completed. Library officials
said this would be about 11:30 Sat
urday morning.
Undedicate Old Libe
In keeping with the spirit of the
, day, the neophytes, in colorful cos
tume, will pay tribute by “unform
ally” dedicating the libe.
Starring in this rejuvenation of
the grand past will be neophytes
Matt Kramer, Warren Waldorf,
Bill Cummings, William Lamme,
Kenneth Webber, Norman Scott.
The audience, it might be added,
is urged to arrive early, to bring
no vegetables, and to pay the most
coiiftebus and cordial"attention*to
the efforts of the cast.
