Nine-Run Rally (Continued from page four) er, Mel Krause, worked the last two innings and allowed three runs off five hits, all in the ninth. Krause opened the ninth with a walk and scored while Owens, the next batter, was still at the plate. A balk sent him to second, he stole third, and another balk put him across the plate. Vandal Coach Findley wasn’t very worried. He was engaged in a pepper game with some of his reserves. Owens walked, Darlye Nelson singled, and Findley looked up from the pepper game. Stratton walked and that was all for Hinckley. In came Ozzie Knickeberg, greeted by Strader’s single — which scored Owens and Nelson. Segura singled, scoring Stratton, and Findley de serted the pepper game. Singles by Settecase and Kimball brought in two more runs before Knickenberg retired the next three batters in or der. Bob Pritchett, with four for six, led the Vandal attack, while Segura had four for five to top the Duck efforts. Ringling’s Circus won’t be here until June.

The consensus would indicate that the rating is helpful—within limits. As an editorial in the Tuesday Emerald pointed out, there is con siderable inconsistency in the rat ing, both in the class and in indi viduals. P. W. Ellis, professor of economics agrees with this. “However, I value comments my students make,” Ellis said. “Some times just one student can make a specific suggestion that I can take advantage of in my teaching. This alone, makes the rating program worthwhile,” he believes. He doesn’t think it significant that a few students use the rating only to express gripes, and con siders this no basis to do away with the procedure. More Ratings Ratings in both the fall and spring were suggested by Ellis, thus making possible useful com parison by both the student and faculty member. Ellis asks his students to make specific comments, since he con siders these to be most helpful. “The ratings are useful in that they give you an insight into what the students are thinking,” E. S. Wengert, head of the political sci ence department, stated. They also encourage students and faculty to think about the problem of teach ing. However, he believes that most of these questions could be dis cussed in class if there is the right relationship between students and professor. If the rating gets in the way of this, it is bad, he said; if it helps, it is good. “Little Effect” Lomax A. L. Lomax, professor of busi ness administration, believes that the ratings have little effect, since most professors have their teach ing methods established and will change little anyway. “A fairer picture is gained if the tests are given in three - term courses only, and in no one-term subjects,” Lomax said. He stated that the ratings made by a senior group last year, which he had instructed for five terms, were most valuable to him. “My rating showed, generally, THE ANNUAL MEETING of University of Oregon Co-op Store Will be held in room 207 Chapman Hall—Friday the 28th of April at 4:00 p.m. GIVE YOUR CORDS A SPRING TONIC HAVE THEM CLEANED NOW , /NSTANT PRESSING/ an attempt to be constructive,” S. T. Ford, professor of businesss ad ministration, reported. His major change of the rating form would be for more specifi city on the item “suggestions for improvement.” Moore Values Opinions “In every class there are some good students whose opinions are valuable,” Carlisle Moore, profes sor of English, asserted. These opinions would probably not be found out in any other way, he believes. Moore asked his students to sign their names to their ratings if they wished, and found that 80 per cent did so. Opinion means nothing if you do not know whose opinion it is, Moore believed. Mabel A. Wood, head of the home economics department, is of the opinion that many students do not have the background and ma turity on which to judge certain points such as “organization of courses,” and “introduction of new materials in the field.” However, she finds that some worthwhile points are brought out. Miss Wood believes that students need more time for the rating, and would prefer that it be done out of class so that more consideration could be given to the questions.
