UNIVERSITY OF OREGON The University of Oregon at Eugene, Oregon, admits its students B lander three plans. In addition to Boonformlng to one of these plans a I atudent who does not reside in the I state must also adhere to the re- I qulrements of the university of the I state from which he comes. The first plan by Which one can I be admitted is rather complex. It I Inquires that out of the fifteen units I which are required there must be j1 two majors and three minors. It oplains that a major is a subject which has been taken two years. Of these two majors and three minors either two of the majors and one of the minors must be from the Mbjects of English, mathematics, laboratory science, or social science. The second plan requires that out of the fifteen units, ten of them laould be selected from the above mentioned subjects with the addi¬tion of a foreign language. Tbe third plan requires but eight [fltt of the fifteen credits to be in tUMM subjects, but the student must Ibe In the upper quartile of the grad¬uating class and may also be sub¬jected to a college mental test in which he must secure a high rating CHARLES WOOD. ANCIENT HISTORY (Lesson No. 2) Note: This material is taken fromU ;he O. H. S. scrap book for the , /ears of '24 and '25.

It is aelieved that they have been bor¬rowed and that students have for¬gotten to return them. ; Yeah, I think they were stolen. 1 At meeting of the senior class today the following were elected council members: Ross Sampson, Mae Morrison and Clarence Clark. Well, who cares about that, any¬how? I The senior girls challenge tne senior boys to compete with them in a "student body ticket drive."

The school play was a great suc¬cess both nights that it was given. The house was practically full and everyone seemed to be enjoying the play immensely. The players had been working hard for a long time and as a result a good performance was given. The art department added materially by contributing the scenery for the acts. Whenever any scenery is needed the art depart¬ment can always be depended upon, Congratulations to all concerned. ASSEMBLY. Friday's assembly was most in¬teresting. Judge W. H. Reeder, Jr. gave a most instructive talk on "Western Trails." Much new talent has been discov¬ered. Who would have thought Helen Sessions had such a glorious soprano voice? The string quintet is getting bet¬ter all the time. The Holly Hop was effectively ad¬vertised. With the twelve extra minutes, some of us nearly arrived on time. OGDEN WINS. Our first game brought us vic¬tory at a score of 28-12. Payson was the defeated contestant and it gave Ogden's team a stiff battle. Ander¬son and Kinner were the big stars for the Tigers. If the first game was fair indication of what is to come we confidently predict a very suc¬cessful season. Our next game will be played with Davis. THAT'S THRIFT.

Hatch and Cannon were the lead¬ing scorers for the Glen Worthington machine. Coach Dick Kapple of the Tigers used two complete teams during the 'four period battle.

ANOTHER CHANCE In view of the fact that there has been so much criticism of the notes we decided to give the junior class a chance to help us out, and to com¬pete for editorship of the notes for next year. The system employed was that any juniors desiring to try out were to hand in their names to Mrs. Irwin and receive assign¬ments. The articles received were to be judged for clearness and in¬terest to students and such. There were only a few students interested and the turnout was dis¬appointing so we have decided to give you another chance. If you are interested hand in your names to Mrs. Irwin. THE CREDIT SYSTEM o gden high school has a record t since 1890 of all its students. This record is called the credit sys¬tem and it consists of all the neces¬sary information about the indi-viduals obtained from their registra¬tion cards and all the marks and credits earned by them during their four high school years. This record lis kept for each student of Ogden high school whether he is a member i for six weeks or four years. I The marks and credits are record¬ed on the cards every six weeks. This is a tremendous job as there are about 950 students each with an average of five marks. The records are then put in steel files and put in the school vault. BOBBIE KIMBALL. OLD STUFF From the records in the office: Arrangements have finally been completed for the organization of a radio club. There are 12 charter members and it is quite likely that the membership will be limited to that number. E. Wangsgard and E. Smith are the advisors. And that was the way "Ham And" got its start. Remember? Of all the men (or women) to be pitied the ones most to be pitied are the confirmed humorists. Once hav¬ing achieved the reputation for hu¬mor they must live up to it at any cost. Let that be a lesson to you, Chuck Wood and Louise Allen. A query for every student: What kind of a school would our school j be if every student were just like! me? If every student were just like me, we wouldn't have any school. BILL THOMPSON.
