OPENS NEW SHOP Inlaid jand Veneered Furniture Finished by Students; Smith Hughes Act Gives Assistance. Oregon Agricultural College, Cor allls. May 15. Phonographs are now being manufactured by students at O. Ai C Nine high grade phonographs are part of this week's program for the students In the Industrial arts department. These Instruments are not the cheap, stained talking boxes of a few years ago, but are modern, up-to-the-minute designs, highly t finished just the kind you would select 'at the music store for your parlor. , TEJTEEBIIfO.YrOIlK DOKE Intricate inlaid and veneered sewmg tables, Morris chairs, china cupboards and library tables may now be produced In quantities at the college, since the new course In miUwrlghtJng has been offered. ;' O. A. C. is the first institution on the coast to offer such work In con nection with its regular manual training. A dosen .typewriter desks have just been completed by the students. - " . ZICBASGE JOBS Each! man is given a certain part of the instrument to make," says Pro fessor II. C Brandon, director of the IUU1WI no iu shops. ."Every day or so the men change Jobs, which gives every one a chance at making the furniture. V A long, bright room, lighted by win dows the entire length on both sides, known as 1 the woodshop,M Is where students do their work. Two students may work at each of the 24 benches. Each bench Is equipped with a patent rapid action vise and two sets of hand tools, consisting of rip saws, planes, chisels, .marking gauges, try squares, hammers, dividers and oilstones. HODEH2T EQUIPMENT The shop is equipped with modern ma chine equipment. There are 15 wood turning lathes, an Iron saw table, a ' 24-inch surface planer; a belt sander built by v the students, and grindstones. Men who receive training here, in tended' to be Intensely practical, are qualified, and may become instructors in manual arts under the Smith-Hughes .act The federal government, through the Smith-Uughes act, promotes these lines both in the schools of the state and in .teacher training. v . - TEACnEKS TRAILED Conditions of receiving federal fnnds Include setting up certain standards, in- suring .practical legislation, and match ing the federal aid dollar for dollar. Consequently. O. A. C is turning out scores of teachers for the vocational subjects. And as a direct result; thou sands more Oregon boys and glcls may receive1 vocational training, because ade quate support by the etate secures the . federal fund for this training, and pro duces a greater number of instructors.

The attempt of university students to ' war neat, serviceable rather than dressy clothes Is a success, according to outsiders who have witnessed the stu dents in every phase of college life, from military drill and regular campus activ ities to dances and teas. Most of the freshmen and sophmore men, who are required to drill every day, wear heavy shoes, spiral leggins. khaki trousers and a coat usually from last year's suit. ' Junior men wear corduroy trousers according to class tradition. Athletic heroes wear sweaters adorned with an "O" and shirts with soft collars, while any presentable coat is considered proper by the others. Caps are worn mostly by both Juniors and sophmores. The senior man vars a wide sombrero and any clothing that is old enough to be comfortable. Neatness is Insisted upon in all classes and those careless in this respect find Chi Omega Winner Of !U. of 0. Junior Prom Canoe Fete University of Oregon, Eugene, May 15. Chi Omega sorority, with "the May Basket, won the silver cup for its canoe fete float Thursday night. A mammoth basket with human flowers sailed down the brightly lighted millrace . past the throngs gathered to witness one of the biggest events of Junior week-end. Kappa - Kappa Gamma, presenting a float called "A Chinese Junk," won sec ond prize of $10. Honorable mention went to Alpha Tau Omega's 'The Vik ings," Sigma Nu's "Oregon Spirit," a huge canoe with windows through which could be seen the spirits of football, basketball,' track and baseball, and Phi Gamma Delta, with a large shoe, rep resenting University of Oregon, - out of which flowed the excess number xf stu dents for whom there was no room. Prizes will be awarded tonight at the Junior Prom This is the third time Chi Omega has captured the canoe fete cup. T i m H e a 1 y , Giant Policeman, Unversed In i Dog Knowledge i ' . ' . Tim Healy, Portland's giant- police man,' knows that be knows nothing about dogs. It is the privilege of a dog to sit down- on a street corner if he wants to, but Healy did not know that when he saw a big Airedale squatting ou the curbing apparently intent on watching a, mark that ' the 'policeman could not kee- Zn llealy's residential neighborhood dogs seldom sit, so Healy says, for whenever he sees them th'ey are either romping over somebody's garden or chasing a cat. " But this particular dog preferred to themselves in disfavor in their living organizations and with their classmates. The girls in warm weather wear ging ham dresses, white skirts, middies and any kind of light colored cotton frocks. SDrlns- dances afford the girls ample op portunity to wear light fulffy summer clothes in place of silk or more pre ten tlous clothing:. Shoe repairing In Eugene is said to be one of the greatest industries of the community on account of the large num ber to be mended for university stu dents. Already : the shoe shops an swamped with last year's white shoes for rejuvenation. During the winter dark skirts and a dark lacket with patent leather belt was almost a regulation costume. Woolen stockings are worn, not for a fad. but for comfort. ."I have never 6een the girls more be comingly dressed than they are now,1 said the wife of a faculty member, "and they are well dressed because they are suitably dressed." - sit statuesquely on the . crowded thor oughfare, and when the big policeman told him to "move on." the dog blinked bis eyes sagely and refused to budge. "I ,fear th, dog is hurt or has the rheumatics," Said Healy to a passer-by. "I can't move him, and he has been 10 minutes in this one spot. ' Til call the Humane, society." - Healy started for the telephone. Be fore he had taken half a dozen steps the os got on his fonr feet,- yawned. stretched his legs and, waving a salute with bis bobbed tail, calmly trotted on about his business. "Wouldn't that beat you V said Healy in astonishment. . Honor Fraternity . For Women Adds . Chapter at 0. A. C. Oregon Agricultural College, Corrallla, May 15.

Effective evidence of the local reach of the great "melting pot" of Americanism will be shown in the Multnomah county district court June 19, when a large class of can didates for citizenship will be pre sented before - Circuit Judge John McCourt by J. B. Easter, naturali zation deputy to the county clerk's office. A total of 106 applications for final citizenship papers will be submitted. Included are 59 applications for first papers ; 47 applications which have been continued from time to time will come up. - " - ' fo "alien enemy" cases will he called. but it is anticipated that all such eases now pending; in Multnomah county will be disposed of within the following two or three months. EXCEPTIONS ABE UXXLT. Those who have shown a .clear record before the department of Justice will doubtless be sriven the "presidential ex ception from the governing naturaliza tion act of 1813, and which has not since that time been radically amended. This provides that no alien shall be admitted to citizenship in the United States at any period when this country is in war with his own country, .The act restricting citizenship on this line waa originally passed In 1802. and In UU it wag made even more rigid. - At present there are pending applica tions from 171 persons who have to be classed as "alien enemies." These in clude 96 natives of Germany and 75 na tives of Austria or Hungary, Many of these applications were filed previous to the entry of the United States into the world war. Some have been filed since America entered the war. In order to receive favorable action, such applicants must make individual application, through the department of Justice, for the "presidential exception." APPLICATIONS HELD VV v In numerous instances the man mak ing application for citizenship is a na tive of a country not at war with the United States, but his wife is a native of Germany, Austria or Hungary, and as conferring of citizenshp would also be stow this boon upon bis wife, the appli cation is held up. In the list now on file there are such Instances among men who are natives of France, Switzerland. England, Russia, Sweden and Norway. The granting of citizenship to the head of a household also confers citi zenship on the) wife and all minor chil dren. As a rule, the families of aliens are larger than those of - the native American citizen. Naturalization bureau records show an average of five mem bers of such families. This means that should the 108 applicants to be present ed on June 19 be granted citizenship, this act will increase the American citi zenship of Multnomah county approxi mately 530 persons. ? . . SIGHT CUSSES FREE , The publio school system maintains a citizenship school, free of charge, three nights a week, at room 204 in the court house; and the T, M. C A. has recently instituted .night classes in cltW itenship at its headquarters at Sixth and Taylor streets. This work is in charge of J. B. Dinsdale, and the instructors are Edgar E. Piper and Johnson Wilson. These classes meet two nights a week. : The average monthly presentation to the court for final citizenship papers is 89. This has so . ranged for the . past three years, although before the war the " number considerably exceeded this figure. When the ban on ,alien ene mies" is raised, it is expected that fig ures will, again show a decided increase. Region at Quinanlt Lake, Accessible to Automobile Tourist 1 Quinault lake, in the southwest corner of the .Olympic national forest,; about SS miles from the Washington v coast line, is a beautiful place even for Port landers, says M. I. Merritt, forest ex aminer, who has Just returned from a trail and road inspection trip Into the lake country. A good automobile road extends from Hoquiam and. Aberdeen to the shores of the lake Itself. The Olympic highway, which wfll eventually encircle Mount Olympus, is being extended west of the lake; 1 miles, : including the section with the bridge across the Quinault river, says Merritt. On the south side of the lake the county is building 1 miles, which will connect the highway with the road to the valley above. Ten miles farther tip the valley the settlers have cleared , out miles of new - road, replacing a section of the river washed out. and . the county and the forest service are cooperating to finish. the Job. " " A new trail is being built rtranrngylO miles up - Plnley ridge. This, will be extended north so as to give ' a good ridge trail connecting through with the head Waters of the Elwha river, which flows from the Olympic mountains northward to a point near Port Angeles. Work will commence on the ridge trail as soon as the snow is off.
