Coffee Cookers Study To Become Bakers By MIMI O’DONNELL Well, lookee here! The Home Ec department has come out ol‘ its co coon and is spreading its wings on one whole, large, and attractive floor of Chapman hall. There has always been much jollity about the proverbial biscuit and other delicate eatables at this department’s expense. As a mat ter of fact the girls in the Home Ec department have not even tried their hand at the art of biscuit making this year. Who knows? The ’44 students may turn out to be the best biscuit makers of all time. Of course this type of bread con struction is not the only work in which these girls indulge. Right now many a worried glance is be ing given coffee percolators and tea pots. In their attractive cloth ing lab, cork top tables and all, (a modern innovation of which the University of Oregon was one of the first possessors) future Schap arellis and Le Longs are cutting up material in mean dress designs. To become a member of this de partment is one of the very clev erest steps a young girl can take. The career of a wife is a very dif ficult one, and undoubtedly the reason for the increasing number of the so-called modern “career wo men” or business women. As tomorrow's career women must train strenuously for their chosen work, so must tomorrow’s wives study diligently for their ap proaching circumstance. (Being a bachelor is almost as difficult a position, and many young men have found camp cooking a great indigestion preventative and gen eral health protector.) This department has done a great deal of meritable work of which little has ever been said. It is a regrettable fact, but as a “wo man’s work is never done,” so is a woman’s work rarely appreciated. Campus Calendar All Yeomen will meet in front of Gerlinger hall at 6:4fi .Saturday for open house. Westminster house will meet to night at 8 instead of 8:30 as an nounced.

Attorney Discusses Values of UO YMCA Freshman beliefs are pretty well battered about by college life, Mr. Bernard Fedde, local attorney and president of the YMCA advisory board, stated at the YMCA fresh man rally Wednesday evening in the ‘hut.’ * Mr. Fedde explained how the YM through its discussion groups helps the newcomers to solve their prob lems as “youth’s greatest problem today is the rationalization of 18 years teaching and their adapta tion to everyday life. » John Cavanagh told of the posi tion of a YMCA from the stand point of a student leader. “The Y has an important place in the life of every student,” stated Cavan agh. “It gives you a position in a very important campus organiza tion. The officers of the ‘Y’ are ready at any time to give you ad vice and to help you solve your problems,” he added.

Charles D. Byrne Investigates Land |For Experiments — Charles D. Byrne, secretary of the stale board of higher educa tion, left Eugene Monday for east ern Oregon in connection with ne gotiations for a 1920-acre ranch, being considered in connection with the state board’s program of ac quiring land permanently needed for experimental purposes. Under the board's plan, money previously used for rent now ap plies on the purchase price, thus eventually lowering rents and pre venting losses from cancellation ot leases in the middle of long-time experiments being conducted or the property. Five farm areas have already been purchased un der this plan. Mineral Specimens Several mineral specimens were brought back to the museum of natural history as a result of a three-week field trip of Wilbur Greenup, geography graduate assistant, and Carl Huffaker, stu dent assistant curator of the mu seum. The trip, which covered most points of geologic interest in the Northwest, was made d u r i n g August. ALUMS Keep Up With Your ALMA MATER Subscribe Now o to the Oregon "P* Emeuald $1.25 per term $3.00 per year Subscribe Now New Gym Instructor Here On Exchange By JEAN SPEAROVV “I’m just a little girl from a big city who loves a small town.” Miss Josephine Persicano, a tall, slender young woman whose brow’n eyes twinkle merrily in her tan face, grudgingly called reporter how it feels to be an exchange teacher from the physical education department at New York university where, for four years, sne nas neon an instructor. Schools Different According to Miss Persicano, who had never been further west than Wisconsin, the set-up at New York university is entirely differ ent from the one at Oregon. The work in the PF! department at New York is concerned mostly with gym majors. Tntramurals are all coached and run by a hired staff instead of being done by the uni versity as is the vcase here. “The situation in New York is ideal for teacher training,’’ said Miss Persicano, “but this ’work here is sort of putting my finger in a pie I’ve always freamed about as an ideal situation. Here all the girls are reached and included in the WAA plan instead of the few who have chosen such work for specialization.” Exchange New When questioned about the ex change Miss Persicano replied that it was the first time such a thing had been worked in her de partment at New York university. The idea, she said, was to make possible a transfer of ideas, as far as physical education goes, in dif ferent parts of the country. “I know,” she laughed, “that I am getting more ideas from the de partment here than the department is getting from me.” If the way in which activities have started rolling is any indica tion of Miss Persicano’s capabili ties, then Oregon is benefitting as much from the contact with this vivacious young New Yorker as she is from her stay in the West. Ducks, Indians (Continued from page three) Shaughnessy cracking the whip, suddenly and almost unexpectedly emerges with a team that has stirred volumes of boiling conver sation down south. Every other self-styled sports authority has stuck his little finger into the mess in a seemingly serious effort to gauge how really hot the Indians are, each winding up with that I-don’t-know stare. Large Crowd Expected If they don’t really know Stan ford's prowess, the same can be said for Oregon, which makes the situation more or les^ a clash between two unknown forces. And perhaps mere curiosity will be suf ficient. to smoke out a plus 40,000 crowd. Webfoots making the trip were ends Dick Horne, Bill Regner, Jim Harris, Louis Butkovich, Norman Conaway, and Crish; tackles Jim Stuart, Roger Johnson, Ed Mosh ofsky, Dick Ashcom, and George Van Pelt; guards Val Culwell, Ray Segale, Steve Bodner, Floyd Rhea, and Morris Jackson; centers Erling Jacobsen, Elliott Wilson, and Her schel Patton; quarterbacks Chet Haliski, Duke Iverson, and Roy Ell; halfbacks Buck Berry, Len Is berg, Don Mabee, Frank Boyd, Tommy Roblin, Curt Mecham, Hal Johnson, and Roy Dyer; fullbacks Marshal Stenstrom and "Butch” Nelson. With the team and Head Coach Oliver went baekfield mentor Mike Mikulak, managers Frank Meek and Bob Engelke, and Graduate Manager Anse Cornell. Blankenship Gets Fellowship Award A fellowship from the Rocke feller Foundation has been award ed A1 Blankenship, graduate assist ant in psychology here in 1934, ac cording to word received by Dr. L. F. Beck, associate psychology professor. He will do research work at the Institution of Public Administration in New York City. During his study here, Blanken ship carried on research concern ing the appeal of advertising slo gans for the Jantzen Knitting mills. After receiving his master’s degree here, he was granted a fel lowship at the University of Penn sylvania and for two years was director of research for Hartwell, Jason and Kibbee in New York City, having charge of their psy chology program on the analysis of the effectiveness of advertising. First school of engineering in the United States was Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, founded at Troy, N. Y., by Stephen van Rens selaer in 1824. Harvard university’s $143,000, 000 endowment makes it America’s richest educational institution. Speech Clinic Starting Soon Conferences Open To Those Wishing To Correct Defects Training and treatment of speech correction, the University speech department’s newest clinic session, will hold its initial meet ings early next week, according to Jack L. Bangs, instructor of speech. These conferences are offered to students this term for the first time in several years. The purpose of this personal instruction course is to give training and treatment in oral communication to students handicapped by such speech faults as nasality, lisping or stammering. Mr. Bangs, who has had several years’ experience in such instruc tion on the University of Washing ton campus, estimates that from three to five per cent of the stu dents now enrolled in the Univer sity are in need of treatment for speech difficulties. These sessions, for which there is no charge, are open to all en rollees of the University and in the near future it is the hope of the department to offer such in struction to all interested individ uals of Eugene and the surround ing territory. Although several students have enrolled in the session at the speech department’s office in Friendly hall, the clinic is prepared to receive additional applications. Graduate Bill Terry Plans Gotham Dehut Local boys are still making good. Bill Terry, alias Bill Thienes, for mer University of Oregon gradu ate will make his Broadway debut around November 1 in “Second Helping,” a new play. Bill left the campus seven years ago to attend the Pasadena play house where he obtained a schol arship. He completed the. course in two years, and went to Hollywood to haunt casting offices. From there he went to New York where he knocked on the gates for a cou ple of years. While in that vicinity he acted professionally, but none of the plays reached the “great white way.” But now opportunity has knocked, and it looks as though he is starting to climb the steep ladder.
