UNKIIS UNITE ONE BUREAU FOR RECREATION SERV Oregon and Washington Des ignate Worker Here to Represent Extension Work. NEWS AND REVIEWS: FROM UNIVERSITY AND COLLEGE (Continued From Preceding Page.) was a design for the American em bassy in Rome. A distinct innovation in the admin istration of American universities was effected last week when L. II. Weir of Portland, field secretary for the north west of the Playground and Recreation Association of America, was appointed director of the bureaus-of recreation and social service for both the Uni versity of Washington and the Uni versity of Oregon. Ordinarily a university is a separate unit in Itself and the combination of departments of one Institution with a similar department In another under a common director Is . radical depar ture. Recreation and social service In the two schools will be taught by exten . sion, that is, -by field workers, who will visit or teach by correspondence the several communities of the states. The bureau for the University of WashinRton will be located at the University of Seattle, while the bu reau for Oregon will e at Eugene. Each will serve the interests of tta state. Mr. Weir, however, will have general charge over both, with general offices in Portland. The establishment of the bureaus In question mark the first official rec ognition of ., the importance of public recreation and of organized play-time for all the people, according to Mr. Weir. "Universities have been placing all due emphasis on industrial, commercial and general education," said Mr. Weir yesterday, "but up to now they have failed to give an active atten tion to organized play and similar so cial work. "Of course our plans are as yet un shaped, but we hope to have eventu ' ally a four year course for the train ing of recreation and social workers to reach the people through lectures, Harvard University. An Important change in the club system of the college was brought about recently by agreement among the XI most important social organizations In the college, to go Into effect next year, by which all election and pledg ing of freshmen to clubs will be done away with. The first month of the sophomore year will be the "open sea son," in which undergraduates may be pledged and elections may take place after the fourth week in sophomore year. The new order was favored by President Lowell and the administra tive officers associated with 'him. Foremost among the 11 organizations thijjt have entered the agreement are the seven '"final" clubs, which are mu tually exclusive; the other four are the so-called "waiting" clubs, from which elections to the final clubs are made. The seven final clubs are the A. D., Delphic, Dlgamma, Fly, Owl, Porcellian and Zeta Pel; the four waiting clubs are the Iroquois, K'alumet, Phoenix and Sphinx. It is expected that the exam ple set by these leadinir organizations will be followed by the various minor j organizations. The new .plan will do away with the 'social unrest among freshmen, and will be an indirect Influ ence in the development of. the fresh, men dormitory scheme.
