FOUIMDEP 1691 EIGHTY-FIFTH YEAR Salem, Oregon, Tuesday Morning, June 11, 1935 No. 65 NEW PRESIDENT BE IS Dr. Baxter Pledges Efforts to Building Stronger University Here Seventy Receive Degrees in 91st Commencement; Big Crowd at Exercises Dr. Bruce R. Baiter was for mally installed as the 14 th pres ident of Willamette university here yesterday with simple but impressive exercises which were combined with the 91st annual commencement of the institution. Gathered in the Elsinore theatre where the new president assumed his duties, were 2000 friends and alumni of the school who applaud ed Dr. Baxter vigorously as he pledged himself wholly in the task of building a stronger institution. . Bishop Titus Lowe of the Ore gon conference of the Methodist Episcopal church, in a brief ad dress before Dr. Baxter spoke, de clared the university was assured of a great future under the new president's leadership. The bishop complimented the university also on the presence of Mrs. Baxter whom he asked to arise from her seat at the exercises. Subsequent ly Dr. Baxter honored his mother, visiting here from Los Angeles, by asking her to stand. Independent College Has Special Task The independent colleges of the northwest have a special task in emphasizing religion and the de velopment of self-control through good government. President. Ed ward H. Todd of the College of Puget Sound, declared in his wel come to Dr. Baxter.-He spoke for the independent schools of the northwest. On the platform as Dr. Baxter was received into office were a number of notables including Governor Charles H. Martin, Dr. Edward' O. Sisson of Reed col lege: Charles A. Howard, state superintendent of schools, Pres ident Thomas Bibb of Albany col lege and Mayor V. E. Kuhn of Sa lem. Education's ideals today swing between a study of the classical and the practical subjects, Pres ident Baxter declared in his in auguration address: "An Educa tional Conflict." "We have had a blind faith in education. We must realize that all life is an education," he aver red. "The forces before and after school are powerful in the forma tion of a life." While the classical courses had predominance 2 5f years ago, the influence of President Charles W. Eliot of Harvard and the growth of elective courses has brought practical, Job-preparation courses into popularity, Dr. Baxter said. Between the formalism of purely classical courses and the ex tremes of practical subjects which in recent years have been carried to extremely narrow fields, lies a wise course for educational in stitutions, he declared. The edu cated man today needs back ground and this can only be gain ed by a classical education cou pled with practical trainings Leadership Training Declared Essential He said the liberal arts school such as Willamette must teach - subjects to endow its young men and women with culture and cour tesy. The social sciences must be . stressed, he said, so the leader ship of the days ahead must bet ter understand how to divide and to share the products of our Tap idly improved mechanical skills. Education will not be complete without moral training, he added, (Turn to Page 2, Col. 1) in DEAL HERE Snags struck in negotiating terms of the federal court stipu lation In connection with, the pur chase of the water system by the city of Salem will be discussed today at a meeting of the utili ties committee of the council, the mayor, city attorney and Walter C.
