PROFESSOR A. M. WILCON
Alexander Martin Wilene, for most than forty years a member of the University faculty as head of the department of Greek and later as curator of the classical museum, died at his home on Vermont street yesterday morning. His death is mourned by the hosts of persons who knew him.
Possessed of a keen mind and an exceptional education his influence in the classroom was of the finest type. He had numerous connections outside the University and belonged to several societies of note.
Those who know Professor Wilcox best characterized him as being extremely kindhearted and friendly. He always appeared young, alert and much interested in the world about him. The University has best a true scholar and friend.
THE REFEREE'S DECISION
Last Saturday night at the Kansas Notre Dame basketball game, E. C. Quigley, the referee, foiled the Notre Dame rosters for bissing and booing at a decision he had made.
Kansas has too many points last year for disregarding with the referee's decision and it is the time right now for every basketball follower to resolve to accept the referee's decision or at least keep still. Not only is it detrimental from the scoring standpoint but the taint of poor sportsmanship liners over the University long after the game has been played and forgotten. Cheer long and hard, but remember that the official is paid to deduce the fine points of the game.
A NEED
Student and home owners on the north side of the campus are in need of a new type of Carrie Nation. Not one who can arouse public sentiment against the liquor traffic by smashing "speakEasy", but one who can arouse the University authorities enough to have a walk built across the north side of the campus.
Suitable approaches which can be used throughout the year have been built from all other directions, but winter is here again with its snow and mud, and the north side is still neglected. There are many students rooming between the West Campus and Mississippi street who must go several blocks out of their way to reach the Hill during bad weather. A walk joining one at the end of Maine street would be a very convenient time saver and would in no way mar the beauty of the campus.
RED TAPE
On Wednesday of this week the presidential electors met and elected Herbert Hoover and Charles Curtin to the executive leadership of the country. In a little more than a month the votes will be opened and counted at a joint session of congress and then the president and vice-president will have been elected constitutionally and according to law.
In the meantime, Herbert Hoover has been received with high honors as the next president of the United States in the South and Central America? Curtis' possible resignation from the senate in preparation for his next job has been discussed
MORE ALIBIS
When, on New Year's Day, Roy Riegle, California center, ran seventy yards toward the wrong goal in the game with Georgia Tech, he indirectly aided the Georgia team to score two points. The game is over now and although both teams scored again and although Georgia had a chance even after Riegle's peculiar mistake, to tie the Southerners away from those two points, the fans and newspapers place the blame for the Georgia victory on the shoals of the California center.
In a game that is meant to teach sportmanship to players and fans alike, what sort of fair play is it that comes one newspaper to carry a cartoon and two news stories designating Riegle as a "bombhead"? Where is the some of fairness that should make California fans admit defeat?
The calm truth of the matter is that Riegel's mistake came in the first half of the game and was the indirect result of the initial scoring of the contest. Even at that the vawed California line might have rallied and brought their team out of danger. They failed, so it was Riegal's fault. Sportsmanlism spokes and said that California was fairly bent by a stronger and better team from the South, but the fans and newspapers forgot that and dropped down to the alibi that it was entirely the fault of the California center.
The three it's may be neglected in the lower schools but the college with knives meets the meeters' family—Xpuncture, Xplanation and Xtraction.

TEACHERS AND THEIR ATTIRI
This newspaper has no views on how teacher should attire herself and arrange her hair. Now and again it prints controversial report on such matters, but it has ever held to pedantic advice from psychologists, who they may be, that teacher in short skirts, her hair bollied, her checks roughed, is a more effacious person than she said by psychologists, who they now just naturally rises to object. Can't they perceive that human nature, the fundamentalals of character—yes, or character—always have been? As though styles mattered when these are considered. There isn't a member of the Oregon State Teachers' association, new in season, that don't know we are right about it.
The theory seems to be that the modern teacher, modernly ripped out, possesses an appeal that will make him more effective in little Johnnie, the infant terrible. Possibly. Yet she must first be endowed with a native charm of her own, that is, she will have all ex-pupils fond remember, there are "plain" teachers, unfavored of the good fairies that attend to her, but she can still walk with laggard or refractory pupils, and for whom the children will do anything. What now becomes of her, after years of being worn to bournesy by mere externals? There never was a time when he was so won. There never shall be. The efficient teacher must have grown up
It is true that among the first and fondest of affections are those bestowed on teacher, when she merits childish trust and respect, and whose children are dominated by the superfluous. It may be of older old-folk, but it is not true of them. Children know. And we beg of teacher to remember this, for he is a great teacher and his profession. We ask her to remember it, while she is endeavoring—and very permissibly—to be as charming as one of her sex should always be.

Physically Identical Twin Tests Show Behavior-Skill Depends on Growth
New York, Jan. 3. - Some sorts of learning and behavior depend upon natural growth processes rather than training, it was determined by unique experiments upon identical girl twin performed by Dr. Arnold Gessell and Dr. Helton Thompson of the Yale Psycho-Clinic and reported recently to the American Psychological Association that they were kept under observation from one month to eighteen months of age. They lived together in a nursery home. They were healthy, good-natured, and remarkable for their sameness. "The apple cleft in two is not more twain than these two creatures, using the language of Skokzepher who was himself the father of twins." Doctor Gessell said in explaining that these children were given a new method of study, known as "the method of eothen control".
Everyone has seen transposed lines in a newspaper, for it is an error that occurs in even the regulated markets. It happens when you know how they get that way is hard to understand. Anybody who can read can see that it's wrong, is the pen-

Yet the transposition is made in type, which reads just as easily as a printed page. It requires a mirror — it is upright down and wrong side to it.

No longer do crowds of 10,000 play football on days before big games. Instead they go about their other activities and go to the game when game time arrives.

--in pep meetings here is not a local alment. It is a national epidemic. Observers all over the nation this year have been quick to find the unified cheering in losing force in universities. No longer do crowds of 10,000 play football on days before big games. Instead they go about their other activities and go to the game when game time arrives.
The student who learns to utilize his time well in the dizzy pace forced on him in college has a big advantage. He can learn from it well outside. He has an edge in the battle for a living and for the appreciation of living. Such utilization of time does not consist merely in doing work, but rather through the day. The utilization of time that will be a value to the student of today, the graduate of tomorrow, is of a different nature. It requires that he be able to learn from an evaluation of activities. It is the ability to recognize lines of effort whose value is slight and the willingness to put forth effort which provides the real ends of the individual.
"I haven't time!" It is the byword of the college student. It is the password which permits the student to access the unrestricted arms. It is at once the word of relief from new tasks and the word of sorrow from joyful voyages cannot be undertaken.
A multitude of interests beseige the average student. Fortunately he who is most likely to best round out his development. Fortunate is he who can eliminate the spikes from the college's whirling wheel of success by merits of development, which mean time devoted to incessantals that the student would prefer to devote to education.
Arnold Bennett once wrote a little booklet, "How to Live on Twenty-Four Hours a Day." The average college graduate could greatly profit if someone who lives on the standpoint of the life of the student of the modern institution of higher education. Utilization of time was crucial for students' advice on living on the time man has.
The student who has acquired the technique of "How to Live on Twenty-Four Hours a Day," speaks the language in which he means instead meaning the average harassed collegian. He has time for the real if not for the trivial. He may sigh with regret that he cannot be able to work well with satisfaction at the knowledge that his has chosen in what direction his efforts will be turned rather than permitting himself to wander intently through the social life, and life conversation.

THE OLD ORDER CHANGEMENT It seems that the vaning interest in pep meetings here is not a local alliment. It is a national epidemic.
One twine was taught for 20 minutes daily over a period of six weeks how to climb stairs and play with small red balls, even occasionally to do three things. At the end of the period when both were an age old, the trainee climbed even more safely and the control Twine C could not scale the four-star staircase. After six weeks later Twine C again given a chance climbed right up without training or assistance. Two weeks later Twine C equal to Twine T in skill. Motion pictures of each twin at each test showed the investigator's ability to climb equal to Twine T in skill. Motion pictures of each twin at 52 times. Although Twine T was trained, Twine I was not. This adventure was overcome by three weeks of added are on the part of Twine C. In playing with cubes the adventurer eventually advanced in skill over her sister.
The identity of the twins used in this novel experiment were remarkably immanuelable in physical appearance but the patterning of the skin ridges of hands and feet were all alike in this work. The twins they were so nearly the same that out of 555 comparative tests, in 471 of them were almost completely identical.
"training somewhat hesitant and affects the manifestations of skill," said professor George F. Burchard, who all forms of skill can rest only on a solid basis of behavior capacities which are determined by intelligence. The fundamental problem of educational psychology is to bring training into the brain into the most fruitful relations."
Such tests may have important influence on educational methods. Drill and repetition may not be effective when the skill has not developed sufficiently.
this phase of college life apparently totten on its last legs. The organized effort of an entire school bent on one central object was inspiring.
Vet, considered from a surname angle,
passing it not so sad. In their hands,
he was a champion of the expanse of university spirit. They grew out of a desire to see the old matter go through to victory, and Vet came back and seen a chance in new meetings.
Organized viling in some schools had come to the place where special displays for the games were prepared. A religious dawned a drawn. A religion was commercialized. In other schools, pep came from a desire of uphemmers to show their authority over freshmen, upperclassmen ceased to attend.
As a sport football is a sphendid spectacle. There is no reason it should not take is correct place in school life.
As ppp meetings became less and less spontaneous, it is in no wonder their nonliteracy declined.

CORRESPONDENCE
Dear Hugh:—
--with these two goes the desire for a certain escape from the pressing realities of the moment — the red blooded adventure romances or to inks of "a wonderful would of homesteads and days of living . . . of full simple happiness."
If you are really turning this Hawk's Nest into a matrinaial advice column, please winkle the knob. It happened last Wednesday, two days after Leap Year was over, if it had happened two days earlier I could have handled it myself. So I will have to ask your advice. I'll have to ask your advice.
--with these two goes the desire for a certain escape from the pressing realities of the moment — the red blooded adventure romances or to inks of "a wonderful would of homesteads and days of living . . . of full simple happiness."
You see it was like this. She comes up to my looking about as tough as a boiled owl and acted as if she was going to snap my neck. You look mud through to fight?" I sex in an awe-ruck voice.
"I am," she replies, snappy like. "Won't you be my sparring partner?"
Now, Hugh, if that wasn't a Trump Year proposal I don't know. But maybe the other two days late and I told her, be you mind? Or right? It was right. I was right.
Anxiously yours.

Dear Willie:
Since I am just an innocent and unsuspecting youth, I do not care about the intricate entanglements of my own over the intricate contingencies of the loveliness. In an effort to retain my unapprehension, I have been critically state that this is my last attempt to unwind love and connect even to my friend, Hercetia.
Since I frequently had the occasion to answer quickly during an interview, you turned to me for advice. When this babe spoke to you as she did, you should have answered as I was forced to a number of questions. The answerers are appropriate; "Oh, this in SO ladder!" or "Have you nailed it? Another stunning answer came to me thought of you that way." You just a dear sister to me! "The latter should have been your comeback. It never fails; it can't be missed every time. Oh, it don't mention it!"
Conclusively, Hugh Bently
Socrates maintained that a man was either very wise or very foolish. That has been our contention; a man is either singe or very much married.
"Only the good die young." And then from the heart of the crowd came a loud clear call, "Long live the crowd!"
As Others See It

A WOMAN IN THE CABINET?
The late Frank Hatton, Postmaster General in the last years of the Arturo cabinet, used to narrate with his fingers what he had formed his official duties. He received his instructions, it seems, the first day of his incumbency, from a colorful messenger, who brings in to him the news of events like "You sign yo' name right dari"; and, as Hatton explained after this initiation, "That was all I had to do the rest of my term, and I gurgle along all the days." And so I say that this story is recalled to mind by the newspaper nomination of

WHAT GERMANY READS
Boston Transcript
Mrs. Alvin T. Hert, for Kentucky to the in-room cabinet. Rather it is because Hutton was the youngest man in the Hamilton, and Mrs. Hert would be the first woman to hold a cabinet position, should the new President so choose to determine what department would seem best fitted for the administrative ability of a woman, but if an appointing committee selected the finest grounds—which is not usually the Hoover way of doing—no better selection could be made than of the president, who is supposed to be carried on, in business and in politics, since the death of her husband, the nationally popular "Toble" Hert. The bureaucracy of the cabineter officer, we venture to say, but it would be glad to have Mrs. Alvin, if we were able, way, if she cares for official home.
Finding out what other people read is always good sport and a fair one. Besides, it is an adi to underestimate the importance of encouragement, or stimulation, or information, his choice of books usually manages to tell us something he doesn't about him. And this is almost as true for nautics as it is for individuals. When, therefore, we come upon an author whose work is probably right in feeling that it shows as much the mind of the new Germany as many pages of散文的 wisdom.
In a way Germany's present popular tastes and concerns in literature reflect its current orientation. They might, it would appear, be divided into the biographical (Ludwig); the social (Ben Lindeny, Vandervelde, Schubert); the cultural (Hamun, Cooper, Jack London, Edgar Wallace). The post-war agonism to learn more about life after war has helped to could serve as standards of one kind or another, is as pronounced in Germany as it is in France, England and Italy. We can see the similarities and personages naming, hoping to find something to aid them. Also the concern with the readjustment of people is important topic and one about which many persons are thinking. Along

Strangely, too, American authors are popular in Germany as no German authors are here. Löwig and Volgger have published books in United States and London and Sinclair attract their thousands in Germany. There, as here, people are asked to read them and enjoy and to enjoy. And so far as books can aid them they seem to be turning to pretty much the same authors. Cooper a difference is noted. In Germany the Leatherstocking Tales series is popular;
