Oregon's Anniversary Should Be Celebrated • • • (C onttnued from />arje 2) ’ Or perhaps the name of B.J. '(Buck) Hawthorne would win out. He's the English lit and later psych professor who moved from Confederate drummerboy to colonel on Lee's staff and then led the G.A.R. column down „ Willamette Street In 1898, . carrying the stars and stripes , himself. . There are the stories of the * big referenda election battles - literally fights for the life of ' Oregon and the continuing ■> ( lashes with OAC over cur * ricula. The Aggies got englneer ' ing away from Oregon back In | ‘ 1913 with some liberal interpre- j ’ tation of the "mechanics arts” wording of the land grant col ' lege bill. The University held, of course, that mechanics arts meant trade _ courses, like carpentry, train- I . ing for electricians and the like; . professional engineering in . volves theory and belongs in a % university. Unfortunately, Sheldon gives -the “nig” fight—the 1933 defeat - of the Zom-MaeUherson ron • solidation bill—less than a page. - \\ hen he wrote his history not • enough people were dead to in * elude all the details of what • Turnbull calls a “really dirty fight.” That one would have j • moved virtually the whole cam " pus to Corvallis as part of the ■ State College and left a sort of SOC-OCE-EOCE combination as ’ consolation to Eugene. Onthank, who had been sched uled to write the student side „ of the University history for , Sheldon’s book, hopes to write a history that will supplement . Sheldon’s in such areas as stu . dent life and perhaps some of - the red-hot battles. . Until that sure-to-be-lively - publication, Sheldon's book re . mains the only complete author •’ ity on the University story. - And although it is written pri marily from a faculty-admin - istration view there are enough " accounts of student activity to make it delightful skimming for the most casual reader among University undergraduates. It ought to be in the library of every living organization on campus, something its $2.50 charge shouldn’t prohibit. It could become a handy defense reference in case there’s an all out move toward Greek-letter building names.
