JVWracle in Journalism Necessary
iTo Avoid Atomic War, Luce Says
By Jackie Wardell
Emerald Newt Editor
(See page 4 for more Press
Conference news)
“Some sort of a miracle of
nalism Is needed if we are
ivoid^ full atomic war,”
iled Henry K. Luce, editor
chief of Time Inc. in the Eric
Urn Memorial lecture Friday.
Speaking as a feature of the
thirty-fourth annual Oregon Press
conference, Luce added that an
editor’s responsibility in a cold
.war was far greater than during
a “hot one.” You don't need the
press to win a hot war, he said,
- but you must have the journal
ists to win a cold one.
Following Luce’s address,
’Gorddn A. Sabine, dean of the
school of journalism, announced
-that the fee ordinarily paid to the
Allen Memorial lecturer has been
returned by Luce to the Allen Me-,
"morial fund to provide $500 more
in scholarship money to journal
ism students.
First in 15 Years
In his "first public statement
-<i ! journalism in 15 years,” the co
f< 'Under of Time listed four func
tions of journalism in America.

PUBLISHER LUCE
The main concern of journalism,
Luce said, is the explanation of
many as possible as afficiently as
possible, what public affairs are.”
"We need also.to know who we
are, where we are,” he added, em
phasizing that the second function
of a journalist is to present a rec
ognizable picture of the environ
ment.
A response to the American de
sire for self improvement by off
setting "materialistic advertising*’
with “mind improving editorials” ,
and becoming a “vessel of truth"
in this day when the “greatest
question is that of truth" were
cited by the editor as other func
tions of the American press.
Telling an overflow crowd of
Oregon newspaper publishers, stu
dents and townspeople that “no
problem in journalism can be iso
lated from the problems of the
world,” Luce opinioned that a
newspaper is in a sense a “public
utility."
“I have the highest respect for
the electric light companies,” the
Tim executive said, “but I have
never had any desire to have my
magazine become one.”
“Why Not Monopoly?”
If a public utility, asked Luce,
why not a monopoly? There are
certain areas where one paper is
all that can be supported, compe
tition of another sheet would be
disastrous he pointed out.
However, the editor added, a pa
per must be of public service even
if not a public utility—to this he
had no objections. Publicity must
be given to all the “good" things
in town “from the Chamber of
Commerce banquet to the high
school tiddlywinks tournament."
DEAN HOLLIS
worked for the bank in his spare
time from the ^age of seventeen.
He was also secretary of the First
Investment and Loan company,
an investment subsidiary.
: During the next academic year,
; he returned to the campus to
| teach a course in law procedure
while he continued his work:
at the bank. He was offered a
: full professorship at the Univer
i sity in the fall of 1931. At that
time Wayne Morse, junior U.S.
! senator from Oregon, was dean of
the law school.
Beginning in 1938, Hollis served
j a-s acting dean during Morse's
leaves of absence. When Donald
M. Erb, University president, died
in December 1943, Hollis was ap
pointed acting president, a posi
tion he held from Jan. 6, 1944 to
July 1, 1945. Meanwhile Morse
had resigned, and Hollis became
dean of the lawr school.
During the 1930 s, the dean trav
elled extensively in Europe and
the Orient. He also made summer
trips to Alaska and Panama. In
addition to travelling, Hollis lists
fishing and gardening as his fa
vorite pastimes.
Hollis is president of the Pacific
Coast conference and Oregon fac
ulty representative to the confer
ence.
Dr. Horn Slates Lecture
On Forthcoming Play

by Dr. R. D. Horn, professor of

at 4 p.m.
Dr. Horn, who says the theater
is a hobby with him, has done ex

life. In his lecture he will empha
size the features of 18th century
life reflected in the play.
Although the setting of the
merry English comedy by Oliver
Goldsmith is during the time of
our Declaration of Independence,
Dr. Horn stressed the fact that
the time was not only an age of
elegance, and powdered wigs, but
also of hardy, lusty, fun-loving
people. It is these people which
Goldsmith characterized in hit.

Emphasis Change
Asked for Co-eds
Changing the emphasis from
competition to cooperation among
the various women’s groups on
campus was advocated Monday
night by a group of senior women
meeting with AWS President Sar
ah Turnbull and members of the
AWS executive council.
Stating that their main purpose
was to “strengthen AWS by mak
ing it a coordinating organiza
tion,” the senior women, through
their spokesmen, Dolores Parrish
and Jane Simpson, advocated a
program including strengthening
of the executive committee of
AWS, abolishing the AWS con
gress, a constitutional committee
to study proposed changes and ar.
ex-officio representative of the
Student Union added to the execu
tive committee.
Duplication Seen
The women stated that the AWS
congress accomplishes little and.
creates duplication of duties that
could be better handled by the
house presidents through heads of
houses.
Elimination of “busy work” was
also urged by the group, which
added that a system with AWS
as the top and coordinating body
would help accomplish this goal
by eliminating duplication of ac
tivities.
