DEAN JOHN STRAUB Dean John Straub, the friend of 52 freshman classes at the University of Oregon, is dead. One of the most teloved educators in the Pacific Northwest has gone to his reward after a half century of service in the interests of Oregon youth ! Oregon mourns his passing. To those who were fortunate enough to come into personal contact with him at one time or another during his long career, his death leaves a vacancy that will never be filled. Dean Straub's influence has made itself felt in educational circles of the entire Northwest where his name and personal ity are known to all leading educators, and to practically all the alumni of the University of Oregon. During his 52 years of service he held officially the posi tions of Professor of Greek language and literature, dean of the college of literature, science and arts, (1899-1920), and dean of men. He was retired at the beginning of the 1930-31 school year, but his contacts with the students were kept up until the very end. These bare facts, however, tell little of the story of the ''Grand Old Man of Oregon." They do not reveal his vibrant personality, his genial smile and charming wit, nor his appar ently inexhaustible capacity for friendship which won him the love of thousands of students and of the people of the entire state. Throughout his career he worked with the thought of the students constantly uppermost in his mind. Mention of just IP WHEW DAV IS DOME JUST DAY. e m wrmxsmvKX. ac beo u s pat. oft.

Wo also know thl. getting doOTi to some local fact. At leaat a dozen Eugene merchant have ahowed us letters from mftmtfa.ttirer. In cnrlwi. ' lines clothing, textiles, furniture. shoes, food stuffs, oils, soaps and whatnot. Every one of these letters reads something like this: "Dear sir: Please be advised that on and after Sept. IS our prices on all lines of ieo and sol will be up (10 or 25 per cent." Unless there Is some very serious and unforseen relapse, retail prices In Eugene will not be as low again as they are at this moment. Is It all political? If politicians had what It takes to regulate econ omics there would never be a panic lor course, this wasn t a panic, was It?) Permanent recovery depends on world-wide economic and social read justments which It will require years and perhaps generations of effort went into the very warp and woof of the university. He loaned money or signed notes totalling more than $2G,000 in order to help the students, and he never lost a cent. He was instrumental in the establishment of the present student loan fund. He was responsible for the first planting of trees on the campus, the careful arrangement of which makes it one of tho most beautiful spots in the west. He has greeted every freshman class from 1878 until 1929. He knew personally more university students and alumni than any other one person ever connected with the institution. And now he is gone! We envy his record. His was a lifetime full of sincere friendships, of wonderful achieve ments, of genuine humanity at its best. He must have met his Maker without apology and who of us could hope to do as well? LA GRANDE WINS AGAIN Apparently the Company E 186th Infantry rifle team is well on its way toward the establishment of Last Sunday the team of five which represented this city in the Eiistern Oregon contest, held on the range east of Ii Grande, won in competition with teams from Pendleton, Baker and Union, and by virtue of its victory retained the coveieu i-eare Uup for another year. mere are two very remarkable things about the rifle contests, iliey have been held for seven consecutive years, and every time the Company E team, from La Grande hiis emerged victorious. Pendleton, Baker, and Union all have splendid companies and have been strong competitors, but tho tciim from La Grande each time has overcome all opposi , tion. And the other factor, which makes the I-t Grande victory even more remarkable, is that tho winning team this year was not composed of veteran members. Probably because of the La Grande monopoly on previous victories, it was decided that this year every team entered must be made up oi men with less than one year's service. So this year every team had the same opportunities, with the single exception that the contest was held on the Iai Grande rifle range. This, however, is no great handicap to visiting teams, for targets are targets no matter where they are placed ; the distance is always the same and the character of the intervening territory is of no imxrtance whatever. But in spite of this action to give everyone an einial chance in the contest, tho La Grande team would not be denied its accustomed victory. A great deal of eivdit evi dently belongs to the officers or the company, who have supervised tho training of the men and have made it pos sible for them to have plenty of opxrtiiniUes to practice. Then again, wo are inclined to wonder if this is nut further evidence that l,a Grande is reluming to its one time win ning ways. Yesterday's Observer also chronicled the victory of the mixed drill team of the La Grande Eagles lodge at a meeting at Baker Saturday, and the victory of the Grande Horseshoe club in a contest with Pendleton Sunday. And just last week this paper told of the high ratings award ed tho Ii Grande American I-pfiim drum corps in state and national competition at Portland. Wc hope the 19IW Tigers of La Grande High school will live up to this reputation by showing their heels to their rivals on tho football fields of Eastern Oregon this fall.
