Dad's GatesTo Be Part ofCloverleaf Incorpation of dads’ gates with the cloverleaf scheme on Eleventh street is being actually planned by the state highway commission. The proposal is to eventually dee velop a parking area on the old campus passage into which will be gained through the site of the gates. Parking area on the old campus for the University theater and oth er buildings was called a "natural" '(>y Harry D. Jacoby, assistant su perintendent of the physical plant. “This is the first time anything was done with dads’ gates, as an entrance to the campus,” Jacoby said. "The gates are just a gob of iron with no apparent function.” The gates were started in 1938 by the Oregon Dads club, and were dedicated February 8, 1941 by Uni versity President Donald M. Erb and Joseph F. Riesch, then presi Dr. Dull, Dr. Wright (Continued from page six) (as only a small town editor can roast students) with charges of being "youthful malcontents” and “immature.” This particular paragraph most caught our attention: “Al though we would agree that there is room for great Improvement in college teaching methods, part of the trouble is inherent in the fact that at undergraduate levels the teachers are usually dealing with minds (if any) which are not ready for mature scholarly work. One of our good friends often says: ‘How would you like to expound literature or history to a mob of squirming adoles cents with .their ..thoughts ..on dances ..and ..football ..games— adults in body but far from being intellectually of age?’” The editor of the Register Guard has been for years asso ciated, on a part time basis, with the University. We think his out burst was unthinking and pro vincial. If not, then what he has said to classes in the past, and what he says in his editorial col umns simply do not coincide. The "friend” he speaks of, is another matter. The chances are excellent that he is on our unpub lished “onion” list. The reason is obvious. A professor can, by presntation and logic, through prsonal con tact with the students, interest in them, in the reactions to what he is trying to teach, and in a hundred other ..different ..ways, make a mature student out of al most any dance-minded, football playing Joe College. It's the bums who mumble and rush, and whine and brag, and drone skip around . . . the men who don't get into the subject matter of the course until nearly midterm, the men who have a team of "favorites” when it comes to grading, the men who lecture in circles so that note taking is a waste of time . . . these are the ones who whine the most about the students being immature . . . these are the guys whose classes arrive for tests loaded with "ponies” . . . because they haven’t given enough of a damn about the course to learn anything. Maturity is a relative thing. We are of the opinion that the degree of that maturity in a college stu dent lies in the hands of the indi vidual professors. Some profs you just naturally work for . . . oth ers you just sit out the course for the hours. Actually, Bill Tugman knows this as well as we do. Perhaps if he had to sit and listen to some of these "onions,” he might change his mind about where the immaturity lies. dent of the dads. Total cost of con struction was $25,000. Part of Campus Improvement Built through efforts of the dads club and WPA, the gates were part of a million-dollar campus improvement fund, which included construction of the library and the student union. The University planning board had planned a broad mall reaching from Eleventh street, through the gates, and up to the “newly-constructed” Uni versity library. The slogan for the dedication was “The gates are. open, dad.” Traffic lights will be used on the cloverleaf scheme, and will facili tate entrance to the University through the gates. Each intersec tion will be controlled by the lights. “The University is, at present, trying to convince the Eugene wa ter board that something should be done about lighting on Elev enth street,” Mr. Jacoby said. “The proposal is to have the city provide the power and the Univer sity supply the fixtures, but be cause of a limited budget, cost is impossible now.” Await Completion When the cloverleaef is complet ed, parking will not be allowed on Eleventh street.

This area is, however, limited in size and will only allow room for about 100 cars. Eleventh street is too narrow for cross traffic from Franklin boule vard, Mr. Jacoby said. This clover leaf will allow an easier entrance to the University property, he add ed. Traffic lights on Eleventh will permit students to cross both streets. “Dads gates, however, will begin to have a function in the part of the campus plan,” the assistant su perintendent said. “This will allow scenic beauty to play its role on this campus, as it should on all campuses.” Plymouth Club Plymouth Club will continue its regular Thursday noon luncheon today at the Congregational Church, 13th and Ferry Sts.
