Dizzy?- - - or Busy
Dean of Women
There is a story told of a little freshman who came in to see the
dean of women and in her excitement, instead of saying, “Is the dear
busy?” she said, "Is the dean dizzy?”
Here is a typical day in the life of Dean Schwering:
8 a.m.—Answers telephone calls while trying to eat and dress,
(The dean's home phone has a long extension cord on it.)
& oLiii answering tele
phone calls.
9:15—Manages to get to the of
fice for the dictation of business
letters, etc.
10 a.m.—Appointments with stu
dents and conferences with alum
nae, and a national fraternity of
ficers.
11 a.m.—More appointments.
12 m. Sorority house luncheon.
1 p.m.—More appointments deal
ing with the personal and finan
cial problems of students.
2 p.m.—More appointments deal
ing with student leaders, ■ house !
presidents and committee mem
bers and also taking care of a!
campus speaker.
3 p.m.—Make apponitments for!
speaker.
4 p.m.—Assembly.
5 p.m.—Change clothes and clean
up for
6 p.m.—Dormitory dinner.
7 p.m.—Take campus guests to
concert.
11 p.m.—Be awakened by some
one wanting to know when such
and such a dance is.
On top of all this the dean's of
fice serves as an information bur
eau and a protectorate of student
interest and leadership.
Who said the dean of women
isn’t busy?

readiness at all Harvard home
football games to aid injured play

Infirmary Men
Crowded into
Girls' Section
Girls are usually dubbed the
weaker sex, but the tables are
being turned. The male section
of the infirmary is filled with
! boys and the overflow is being
placed in ward two—supposedly
for feminine cases. Martin Du
Bois finds this rather inconven
ient since his six and one-twelfth
feet don't quite fit into these
beds.
“When I sit up, I fit pretty
well,” Du Bois related as he
raised himself up on one elbow,
"but when they lay me down, I
have to sleep crosswise in the
bed.” This SAE wore a blister
on one foot last week and is suf
fering from a secondary gland
infection on his thigh as a result
—and a very painful one, too.
Moral: Don't wear blisters.
Mexican Dishes
To Feature Menu
At YWCA Dinner
Completely Mexcian from the
menu to the dishes will be the din
ner to be served by the YWCA for
eign foods group Wednesday eve
ning.
The menu will include real Mex.
ican food—the kind that the Mex
icans eat—and not pseudo-Mexi
can dishes, Mrs. John Stark Evans,
executive secretary, said. To make
the setting more complete Mrs.
Leavitt O. Wright is contributing
her set of Mexican dishes.
The foreign foods group is led by
Nina Schmor. Mary Wright is in
charge of the dinner.
Foreign Language
Study Spreads in US
Pronounced increases in the number of students taking foreign
languages in the last few months are reported by the romance language
department. The movement is believed to be due to recent world events,
foreign language movies being shown here, and an appreciation of the
intellectual and cultural values of these languages by both students
and parents.
This renewed interest in foreign languages is not confined to col
leges but has also spread to high
schools, reports say. Although
more widespread in the East the
movement is also gaining in the
West and is said to have been
hailed with delight by modern lan
guage groups in Portland.
NBC has taken notice of the
movement and is releasing short
wave broadcasts in three lan
guages, the department reports,
adding that since the establish
ment of Roosevelt's “Good Neigh
bor" policy the study of Spanish
and German has doubled in the
United States.
Not to be overlooked is the fact
that many students with a thor
ough knowledge of French and
German have received civil ser
vice positions.
UO Sculptor Shows
Carved Art Pieces
Four pieces of sculpturing by
Clarence Bates, student assistant
in the sculpture department, are
on exhibit at the Vera Jones Bright
studio, San Francisco.
Three of the pieces are carved
from wood, and one is made from
Brownsville stone. They have been
on exhibit since November 15,
with an exhibit of lithographs by
George Goethke.
The pieces are: the Cougar Kit
ten, the Faun, Cougars, and the
Otter.
Old Yukon Eskimos
Skillful Craftsmen
A striking example of the artistry and skill displayed by Eskimo
tribes of the Yukon country, before the influence of the white man,
is shown in the collection of Dr. Robert Joseph Marsh, which is now
on exhibit in the Condon hall museum. .
The dangerous weapons, hunting knives, fish spears, and other
objects included in the collection, were gathered by Dr. Marsh in 1898,
when he was on duty in the Alas
kan country, and were loaned to
the museum by his wife and
daughter.
Especially interesting in the col
lection is the ingenious device
known as the ice scratchcr, which
was used by the Eskimos for seal
hunting. With the aid of this im
plement and a seal claw, the hun
ter was usually able to disguise
his approach from the unsuspect
ing seal, by creating a sund with
the scratcher, similar to that made
by the other seals on the ice.
Dr. L. S. Cressman, of the an
thropology department, explained
that the various objects in the col
lection, which were carved from
walrus tusks, were characteristic
artifacts of the culture of the Es
kimos. “The Eskimo ordinarily
spends a great deal of their time
in carving and etching in ivory,”
he said.
A model of one of the most ef
fective of all forms of water
transportation, the birchbark kay
ak,, which is used by the Eskimos
for speedy and elusive water trav
el was also included in the collec
tion.
The sharp-edged hunting knives,
bird spears, fish spear3, and ar
rowheads shown in the exhibit give
evidence that the Eskimos had to
take advantage of every possible
food-getting device to secure their
livelihood.

Advertising Is
News, Declares
Stanley Keith
Conference Talk
Stresses Point of
Truthful Ads
That advertising is really news,
as much as the news which finds
its way into the columns of the
paper, was the contention of Stan
ley Keith of Salem, who spoke at
the Saturday morning session of
the press conference. Keith is the
advertising manager for Miller's
store In Salem.
“See that this advertising infor
mation is news—truthful news,”
Keith said.
Keith declared that in his opin
ion newspaper advertising was
even more effective than direct
mail advertising.
In summing up his speech, Keith
said that newspapers sometimes
failed to give the best position in
the paper to the advertiser who
was buying the most space. He in
sisted that the advertiser who was
the paper’s best customer should
get first nreference.

Summer Still
Long Way Off
To Secretary
That anyone could in this wea
ther be thinking of summer with
anything but the dreary thought
that it seems a long way off,
might strike one as being im
possible.
But there are some students
on the campus who are acting as
if summer wefc indeed just
around the corner.
“And it’s just too early for that
sort of thing,” wailed Miss Violet
Runte, secretary to Employment
Secretary Janet Smith. Declar
ing that the employment office
still has to worry about getting
jobs for students this term, she
revealed that students are al
ready coming to apply f«r sum
mer work.
Of course, she said, there have
been only four, and before we
are through there will be around
200. “But,” she added firmly,
“It's still too early.”
Newspapers Called
'Greatest Shew'
H. Bernsten Claims
Daily Press Most
Influential
“Newspapers are the greatest
show on earth,” stated Mr. H. C.
Bernsten, general manager of the
Pacific coast division, bureau of
advertising, American Newspaper
Publisher association, in his ad
dress Saturday morning to the
members of the ONPA. “There is
no other show like the newspapers.
None more costly, none more glam
orous and varied, none more uni
versally enjoyed.”
"Radio claims for its most pop
ular program a listenership of 30,
000,000. — Los Angeles, alone,
claims to have ten masculine and
one feminine residents whose syn
dicated features are read each day
by more than 30,000,000 people,”
Mr. Bernsten continued.
Most Advertising
•Of all the ways of advertising,
"newspapers receive more adver.
Using money in a year than maga
zines,. radio, and billboards togeth
er.” To show the enormous amount
of money spent on newspapers, Mr.
Bernsten made the following state
ments. To produce the 138 English
language newspapers in California,
it. costs $172,000 per day. To pro
duce the papers of the six western
states it costs $250,000 per day,
and to produce all the daily papers
in the United States it costs over
$3,000,000 per day.
Newspaper Defined
A definition of a newspaper as
written by Henry Ward Beecher
was given by Mr. Bernsten as fol
lows: It is “—an unbound book
forever issuing and never fin
ished.” "Newspapers have a great
er influence over American people
than any other medium. Everyone
who reads, reads newspapers ev
ery day.” They are a collection of
attractions for the whole family.
At the conclusion of Mr. Bern
sten’s talk, he showed motion pic
tures of a newspaper press room
with all the clangor and excite
ment of an edition going to press.
At the end of the pictures news
boys dashed into the room with
“Extras," printed especially for
the ONPA by Bernsten.

Phi Beta Kappa
Publication Lists
Wide Coverage
Role of Students in
Spanish Civil War
Is Lead Article
The winter number of the Amer*
ican Scholar, quarterly magazine
published by the United Chapters
of Phi Beta Kappa, has arrived on
the campus with a wide range of
content in the fields of history,
psychology, political science, liter
ature, education, art, ethnology,
and other departments of human,
activity.
The leading article, written by
Jose Castillejo, considers the role
of students in the present Spanish
civli war, points to the use of
youth by both parties in promot
ing their particular ideologies, and
suggests danger in state control
of education.
“The Spanish experience,” writes
Castillejo, who is director of the
Students International Union at
Geneva, “has taught the world how
dangerously political oscillations
threaten national education. Wher
ever the schools are in' the hands
of the state this is true—if the
liberal guarantees of the 19th cen
tury succumb to the whims of a
dictator or, still worse, to the pres
sure of popular will. It has re.
vealed that true science can and
will reign, but only on condition
that its throne is not in the office
of a government official. Science
armed with political power is more
dangerous than a church wielding
a. sword.”
The ESP (extra-sensory percep
tion) experiment is the object of
a critical article by Dr. Joseph
Jastrow, psychologist of Columbia
university. Other subjects discussed
are cubism, the background of the
Ameipan negro, Yiddish litera
ture, child education, the influence
of pressure groups on free govern
ment marihuana, and Canada's
own supreme court problem.
