..f es YE 1 CHA CELLCDR FREDERICK .HU TER Suffering from acute educational-experimental pains, Ore- gon's higher educational system took a change for better with the coming of Chancellor Frederick M. Hunter in 1936. This Phi Beta Kappa football letterman from the University of Nebraska has been president of the National Education Association, superintendent of schools in Oakland, California, chancellor of the University of Denver, and author of many books on edu- cation and numerous educational papers. From headquarters in Iohnson Hall, the smiling gentleman keeps the State Board posted on the latest developments and needs of the institutions.

Governor Charles A. Sprague is a versatile man. Beside being a good Republican, he has been a teacher, superintendent of city schools when only 26, bank organizer, and newspaper publisher. Since his coming from the Midwestern to the Northwestern states in 1910, it has been said that in the five cities in which Governor Sprague has lived he has built something into each one which is sym- bolic of his quiet energy and steadfast indus- try. Governor Sprague worked his way through Monmouth College at Monmouth, Illinois, by a part-time newspaper reporting job and two years of teaching. Prom his col- lege he won a bachelor of arts degree, a letter in intercollegiate debating and a letter in football. Last spring Governor Sprague took time off from official state duties to administer the oath of office to the newly elected execu- tives of the Oregon student body. In his first visit to the Eugene campus, this honored and popular personage left this brief message with the assembly of University students: Books and a faculty and laboratories equal a univer- sity, but a university must do more than that . . . it must interpret the mental climate of a specific generation and the future of a people. t ' if iv ,fflgff OVSIIIOI' PIB.
