A Chance for Equalization
npiIE American Library association has just released (lie
figures on circulation of' hooks in college libraries. I lie
University of Oregon lias placed firs! in the circulation ol
reserve hooks for the second consecutive year. The figures
reveal that the average Oregon student cheeks out L>7 hooks
per year, while at the next most-used library of < liicago
university only 111 books per student are taken out.
Oregon has maintained this high average in spite oi going
onto the two-hour check-out system. The year before reserve
hooks had been cheeked out for only one hour. 'I lius it can
he seen that the library has extended its services during
the past year.
What else do the figures of the library association show?
Has the Oregon library had financial help to maintain fhe
high record .just mentioned?
4ft if: sYf
NFORTUNATELY, llio statistics on funds available for
tlic staff, pnrebase of new books, and general mainte
nance, place Oregon thirty-fifth on a list, ol 4_! colleges.
Tile record for I93(>-!37 was possibly a little higher. Al Unit
lime Oregon placed twenty-sixth in a group ol ‘M> sidiools.
In 199f>-!16, Oregon stood twenty-second in a group of 2S.
From year to year the record has told 1 lie same story—
Oregon is consistently high in circulation of both reserve and
general circulation, and oonsistcntyl low in funds available.
gOLUTlON to the problem of funds for the library is as
difficult as similar financial problems of every other
branch of the state system of higher education. There seems
one opportunity for a small improvement in the library’s in
come, however.
Under present regulations all fines collected by libraries
in the six schools of the state system are put into a gene-rill
fund, which is disbursed according to enrollment. This brings
about an incongruous situation. The Oregon library is dis
tributing three times as many reserve books as Oregon Stall1
(the 19)18 average for OSO was fib per student) and getting
a smaller proportion of funds.
^JpiIE nature of many courses at Hie University is to a large
extent responsible for the high rate in reserve distribu
tion. Evidently, according to the Library Association figures,
such is not the condition at Oregon State. (We might thought
lessly suggest that students at OSO do not study as much
as those at Oregon but Cl I* As, at least, would belie us.)
A little more just equalization in the distribution of fine
funds might be advisable.

What Other Editors Believe....
BEER AND THE CAMPUS
There arc fuss and pother at Eugene over a movement to forbid
the sale of beer within an area of six city blocks -surrounding the
campus of the University of Oregon. It is a mistaken approach to a
problem of student discipline.
The Register-Guard, which has been making an intelligent study
of the situation, finds that of five establishments which would come
under the terms of the proposed prohibition four are eating places
and the other sells packaged beer only. Each of these places is
furnished with a copy of the University Directory, with notation of
the age of each student opposite the name. University disciplinary
records show very few cases wherein drinking has been even an
incidental factor in charges filed.
In these days of the universal automobile, necessity to travel
a few blocks or even miles is no deterrent to persons seeking liquor,
whether students or other people. Obviously eating places near the
campus which serve beer are going to be more careful about observ
ing regulations concer ning age and condition of applicants than those
farther removed. Obviously, too, students themselves will guard
their own conduct more carefully at the edge of the campus than
at places apart from it. And for the matter of that the great
majority of students need no watching. They behave themselves
because they are innately decent and self-respecting.
All young pople know about beer and hard liquor also. The
answer to the problem of keeping them temperate does not lie in
the directoin of placing intoxicants out of their reach. That cannot
be done.- The Oregonian.

Thirty-five years ago today—
Two hundred and eighteen stu

to their teaching duties Monday af
ter a trip through the eastern part
of the state.
The two instructors visited sev- I

the state. The object of their visits,
as explained by Professor Bou
shey before the trip, was to ob
serve the methods of teaching
health education, physical educa
tion, and athletics in the various

Professor Boushey said that he
and Dean Leighton had been espe
cially impressed by the progress of
the high school and junior high
school at The Dalles.
While in eastern Oregon, the
professors attended a meeting of
the Wasco Men's club. John War

instructors on part of the trip,
showed moving pictures of the
Oregon-Fordham football game.
Dr. Leighton spoke before the
group, Professor Boushey said.

Constitution Ready
For Handout Today
Holders of Class,
ASUO Cards Will
Get Handbooks
At long last—a constitutional
handbook.
Ready for distribution this af
ternoon will be the much-delayed
constitutional handbook, designed
by the ASUO executive commit
tee and sponsored by almost all
major constitutional campus
groups.
Zane Kemler, ASUO first vice
president, said last night he has
learned from Robert Hall, superin
tendent of the University press,
that the book would be ready by
noon at the latest.
Distribution will be according to
plans announced last week, Kem
ler said, with copies available at
the offices of the dean of women
and dean of men, and at the edu
cational activities office in McAr
thur court. Copies will be released
to holders of either ASUO cards
or class cards. AWS members
must be student body members, so
they need no further qualification.
Four thousand of the little book3
were printed, Kemler said, with a
view toward having enough to pass
out to next fall’s crop of freshmen,
who must have something to work
from.
Changes in by-laws will be cov
ered by reprinting each year, Kem
ler said. In the present book names
of class officers are listed, which
will have to be changed each year,
he stated.
Financing of the book was hand
led by a system under which pay
ment was according to the number
of pages their constitution covered,
with Kemler making the arrange
ments.
And the college widow has fall
en out of “sigh and memory” for
most modern collegians, too.
