The Pioneer Log· will be pub­
lished ..monthly, and in addition to
circulation on. the campus, will
be. sent to subscribers in the
Women'S League a'Sseciation,
Mother's club, and churches.
Copies will also be sent to men
and women in the services. News
.of special interest to these groups
will be published in each issue.
About 25 students have cooper­
ated in the publication of this is­
sue. Few of them had any pre­
vious journalistic experience, so
special training classes are being
held in which writing, copyread­
ing, proofreading and head writ­
ing are being taugh.t. Any stud­
ent interested is invited to join
the staff of the Log.
. Freshmen Score· High
On Enlra~ce Tesling
Several freshmen made out­
standing records in their entrance
tests, according to Dr. L. 0. Mc­
Afee. Compared with other col­
lege students, whose average
score is 50, many Lewis and
Clark students rated in the top
percentiles.
Barbara Beebe, Margaret Eat­
on1 Laurel Friesen and Marilyn
Johnson made superor scores in
a number of the tests. Scores
of 99 were obtained by ·Miss
Johnson in Mechanics of Expres­
sion, and by Miss Friesen in So­
cial and Economic Events; while
98 scores were earned by Caro-
. lyn Lazenby and John Little· in
Current Science and Medicine,
Miss Eaton and Miss Friesen in
Mechanics of Expression, Miss
Beebe in Vocabulary, and Miss
Eaton in Contemporary Art and
Music.
The Current Science and Medi­
cine test brought ten scores of
90 and above, which was more
than for any other section. No
student scored above 80 in the
mathematics test, while John
LitUe was the only high scorer
in natural science. -

Signs of Expansion
Once again the college is embarking on a program of
expansion, this time in connection with the new buildings
which some day w,ill make this a complete and beautiful
campus . The growth in enrollment this year and the work
in the field of music and home economics have brought
faculty personnel and new students as signs of the new
ways in which the college is developing. We welcome both
old and new students to this year of achievement .and growth,
with the hope that it will be a victory year not only for
our armed forces, but also in the solid establishment of
this college in its service to the Northwest.
Our congx:atulations go to the officers of our PIONEER
LOG. It, too, is a sign of expansion. May it have good
success.
Morgan S. Odell, President
Cooperation Urged
First of all, I want to thank everyone for the wonderful
cooperation this fall. We have a big year ahead of us with
wonderful opportunities for really making history.
One thing we. must remember is that an organization is
as good as the people who are in it. If all of us put every­
thing we can into whatever activity is taking place it can't
help being good.
There is plenty of work to be done, and though few of
us have any extra time, I'm sure any we do have can be
utilized . We know we have a beautiful campus, 1:1Ut it takes
a lot of work on odd jobs to take care of such a place.
These jobs usuatly are light and take very little time but
will be so greatly appreciated .
We have a basketball team developing. Let's .all give it
our 100 per cent support and put Lewis and Clark in the
headlines. These fellows have the makings of a real team,
so let's all show we are behind them.

was home on leave last week from ' Texas. Now however, he is in a
language school at the University
of Colorado at Boulder studying
Chinese for rehabilitation and
wfl(pr(?o!!bly be there for about
six weeks.
His wife, the former Barbara
Tuttle, who was a member of t.he
class of '44 for two years, has
been with him in Texas and has
now gone to Boylder. She was a
member of Alpha Gamma soror­
ity.
While in college, Les partici­
pated in all college sports and
was captain of the basketball
team.
Carl Hassold, who is now a
member of the armed forces, grad­
uated from Lewis and Clark at
the end of the 1944 summer ses­
sion. He was well known for his
outstanding activities and services
to the college. Outside of re­
ceiving the Faculty Honor award,
being President of the Alpha'
Rho fraternity . Carl's name ap­
peared Jn "Who's Who Among
Students in American Univer-
• sities and Colleges".
He is now at Camp Wolter,
Texas, in the A.S.T. going through
the early stages of his army ca­
reer. Although it's too early to
predict, Carl thinks he will be
be placed in a Chemical Engin­
eering Unit, whch fits in nicely
with his Chemistry major in col­
lege.
All of you will remember Rex
Thompson who was a freshman
at Lewis and Clark last year. He
was inducted into the army this
summer and is now at the Let­
termen hospital in San Francisco
studying dentistry after receiving
his basic training at Fort Lewis.
Rex says that San Francisco is
like paradise. Then too, he is
doing the work of his chosen ca­
reer .•
Rex hails from Glendale, Cal­
ifornia and was an active member
of last year's student body. He
was a member of the Sigma Al­
pha Sigma fraternity, the Science
club, and played on the basket­
ball team. Sparle's Parle
About' 80 years ago Mr. Wil­
liam Monteith started a school
for little children in the parlor
of his home, where. they were
taught their Three R's.
The fondest dreams of Oregon
pioneers were of education, so
the Presbyterian Board of Christ­
ian Educat{on sent Dr. Gary to
Albany, Oregon. The reason that
A~bany was chosen rather than
some other village was because
there was the Monteith family,
with land and money, and an
educational venture already un­
der way. Land for the school
was donated by a brother of
"Professor" Monteith, and Al­
bany Collegiate Institute was or­
ganized. The inaugural address
was given by President William
Montieth on Qctober 22, 1867.
In the first issue of "Our Gel­
lege Missive", the school paper,
published in 1875, courses of
study listed were: Greek, Latin,
Mental Philosophy, Butler's
Analogy, McCorsh 's Institutions
and Moral Science.
A prominent social event was
the Second Commencement ex­
ercises. Imagine listening to a
program containing features like
this: Essay, "The Realm of Mind
and Matter; Music, "Grand Fan­
tasia of ·the Mockingbird"; Ora­
tion, "Proof Armor for the Bat­
tle of Life;"· Oration, "Is the
World Retrograding? "
Another social feature of the
college, which we could have to­
day with an abundance of mem­
bers, was an Old Maids Society.
Whenever one of their members
left the group, they would
drape the door of their meeting
place with black crepe. '·
They did .not have sororities
and fratemitiE!s, but literary
societies, ·which were called Sig­
mll Phi, Erodelphians, Philozet­
ians, and Aelioans.
"Our College Missive" also in­
cluded jokes. Here is a sample
of their humor: During an ex­
amination a medical student w.as
asked: "When does mortifica­
tion ensue?" He replied, "When
you pop the question and the an­
swer is 'No>. (We do not force
the .. reader to laugh.) PIONEER LOG -------PERSONALITY OF jt

Connie Berkey, president of the
student body, has been one of the
most active students on the Lewis
and Clark college campus. Last ·
year, as a sophomore, she was
voted one of the three outstand­
ing women students and was
elected the first woman studen~
body president in the 78 years
of the history of the college.
Conscientious and dependable,
Connie has been secretary of the
student body, the Associated Wo­
men students, and Alpha Gamma
sorority. She is a member of Al­
pha Pi Mu, music honorary, and
a proctor of the dormitory.
One of Connie's main interests
is music. Last year she was a
member of the college women's
trio. She plays the bassoon in
the instrumental ensemble and is
talented on the piano and the
violin. -
Her major is business adminis­
tration, but her favorite subject
outside of music is biology, She
is especially interested in medi­
-cine and hopes some day to get
a Ph. D. degree.
Connie wears an Alpha Phi
Omega fraternity pin from the
University of Colorado . The man
is Alvin Foleen who has been
training in the navy V-12 pro­
gram and is stationed in San
Diego.
Her sparkling dark eyes and
lovely smile add to Connie's out­
standing personality. Red and yel­
low are the colors she likes to
wear most.
Connie's wide range of inter­
ests· and talents promises . to be
of much value in her career.
And with her determination and ·
ability she will go .f~r . Keep up
the good work, Connie, and may
you have a brilliant future. the name-plate. It's an
heirloom and a couple of puns.
For the benefit of the freshmen,
deans (i. e. Howard) and presi­
deqt, we shall explain: First pun,
obvious if you will note the above
profiles of Joanne Norman and
June Fisher. Second pun obtained
by slight tempering with the
spelling, and of course you re­
member that our colors are orange
and black, so we put the orange
at the top and by the time we've
peeled through to the end some­
body or other will probably be
black or maybe red since its rus­
sian week.
It's an heirloom cause we heired
it out of an old drawer in the
business office where it's been
ever since the college moved off
and left it, once the name-plate
of the Albany newspaper.

Sludenl Body Sponsors
Gel-lo-gelher on Campus
A weiner roast was sponsored
by the student body for "getting
acquainted" early in the fall
term.
Although several of the stud­
. ents were without coats, they
·all participated in the Treasure
Hunt amid the drizzle of that
well-known Oregon mist. Each
was given a ·clue, and after hunt­
ing for approximately 15 min­
utes, most of them succeeded in
finding their treasure of. either
a weiner, apple, or marshmallow.
Gene Westberg was Master of
Ceremonies and presented the
program in radio style. Richard
Moffett played Deep Purple and

Men at Dormitozy
With glistening candle lights,
and the fragrance of freshly
picked flowers, the usual ~uiet
dinner hour of a Thursday even­
ing was uproariously interrupt­
ed recently with the attendance
of four . men visitors on the .. "man-shortaged" campus.
A secluded table was sought
by these · fortunates and their
girls, and a delightful meal was
enjoyed by all. Be~ng wise, the
girls· had before hand cautiously
warned each of .their fellows of
the customary coll~e dinner tra­
ditions such as breaking bread
into four pieces, and waiting for
the hostess to begin eating, so .
with no flaws or errors the din­
ner ended successfully .
Believe it or not, we're a senti­
. mental group, for tears were
detected iri the eyes of a number
of girls as we all joined in
"Let Me call You Sweetheart",
complim enting the engagements
of Lorraine Metcalf and J eim
Strickwerd. Could be this
brought back memories?
Faculty Women Organ~e
The newly organized faculty
women's club will meet this Fri­
day in the women's building. Freeman's
·Fashion Flashes
Of course, girls, your skirts
and sweaters gave you a flying
start this fall as they did last.
But, have you noticed the in-
' creasing popularity of wool plaid
and wool jersey in sport dresses
and blouses? These soft, bright
wools are as ;warm as they are
smart. Perhaps you've noticed
Barbara Byrne's green jersey
blouse worn above her gray skirt
with gay flowered pockets.
We're all thinking more of
formals now, with our own fall
dance so near at hand. Taffetas
in colorful checks or bold stripes
hold the spotlight this year,
their crispness and brightness
lending a festive note to any oc­
casion. Jean Brose wore a strik­
ing example of the popular taf­
feta at the formal reception held
Sunday, October 29.
One eye on your pocketbook
and the other on the weather­
man-that's the formula for
healthy fashion. Wind your fads
around '"the weather. Mittens
furnish a good start. Take a look
at Karolee Dietrich's bunny
fluffs and Lillian Foleen's velve­
teen "boxing gloves". You can
bet those mittens do their duty

man's worse.

Since theory and harmony classes are being offered for
the first time, they are many experiments being performed.

Notes From
Women's League
The Women's league of Lewis
and Clark college, Mrs. Warren
C. Hunter, president, wishes to
blow its own horn for a few par­
agraphs with Mrs. Frank W. Alli­
sen, publicity chairman doing the
tooting.
The classes of '44, '45, '46, and
'47 may be interested in the fact
that a state wide group of en­
thusiastic women are in an all
out mood for further the plans
of the college.
The league's goal is for an in­
crease in membership, with 1000
One ·Hundred Dollar life mem­
bers its immediate concern. Mrs.
Morgan Odell bought the first life
membership this year.
One of the outstanding projects
for this year will be the purchase
and installation of an organ for
the campus chapel. Mrs. E. Vic­
tor Creed is music chairman .
The league gave a most suc­
cessful tea for new faculty mem­
bers and 65 delighted women from
Dunthorpe spent an afternoon on
the campus as guests of a league
committee whose purpose is to in­
terest outside groups in the col­
lege.
The league recently bought the
beautiful rug for the upper hall
of the women's building.

ing last week for the purpose of
taking in new members. Each
new member ,came prepared _ to

ered. We have many blossoming
composers in our midst, who
knows, maybe we have a Beet­
hoven, Gershwin, or Verdi in our
music department. ·
Each performer gave his musi­
cal background, and presented his
contribution. Two original com-.
positions were offered for approv­
al by Betty Ross and Lois Solie.
Ann Brooks, Gwen Rucker, Ros­
alie Blue, Joyce Ogden and Rich­

Faculty Members
In starting the new school
year, Lewis and Clark has been
fortunate in securing the ser­
vices of several new faculty
members.
Dr. Norman F. Coleman, form­
er president of Reed College in
1925, has become instructor in
upper division religion and phil­
osophy at Lewis and Clark. Also
teaching in the field of religion
and philosophy is Dr. Mervyn E.
Moss, assistant pastor of the First
Presbyterian church and instruc­
tor of lower division Bible at
the college.
The enlargement of Lewis and
Clark's department of music has
made possible the addition of
new instructors in this field.
Professor John Stark Evans,
who for 25 years was organist,
conductor, and instructor of mus­
ic theory at the University of
Oregon has become the director
of the department of music the­
ory, harmony, and applied music
in organ.
Also of the music department
is Mr. Karl D. Ernst, instructor
of public school music. As sup­
ervisor of music in the city
schools, Mr. Ernst will have
charge of the classes in public
school music and will super­
vjse the practice teaching of
students anticipating this work.
These are four of the twelve
new faculty members at Lewis
and Clark. We of the college
sincerely hope that the coming
year will be one of success and
s~isfaction for each one of them.
Fall Enrollment Shows
25 Per Cent Increase
Enrollment is 25 per cent
higher now that it was last fall,
with a 53 per cent increase in
new students.
Transfers from other institu­
tions make up nearly 15 per cent
of the student body, which rep­
resents 11 different states, in­
cluding New York, Mississippi,
Tennessee, Oklahoma, North and
South Dakota, with the largest
number from Washington.
The total enrollment is 120
students, of which 29 are men,
among them enlisted men pre­
paring for professional services
in the army, disabled veterans,
and ministerial students.
According to Dr. L. 0. Mc­
Afee, two thirds of the increase
is thought to be due to the in­
terest in the new music depart­
ment under the leadership of
Professor John Stark Evans.
Freshman enrollment has in­
creased from 49 last fall to 64
this term, while the senior en­
rollment has decreased to nine
now from 17 last fall.
Odell Speaks at Church
Dr. Odell spoke at Rose City
Presbyterian church· recently,
about the plans for the college.
The newly created girl's trio
consisting of Jean Brose, Joyce
Ogden, and Betty Ross sang
"Lift Thine Eyes" from Men­
delssohn's "Elijah".

new books obtaine<i through the
Doltz Memorial fund, given in
memory of Dr. Paul Doltz, re­
tired Presbyterian missionary to
the Philippin-e Islands, who died
in Portland in 1943. Dr. Doltz
spent 35 years as an evangelist
and teacher in Silliman Institute,
and in his memory, this collection
includes books on education and
religion in the Philippines, as well
as several basic works on Philip­
pine history.
One of these books, The Silent
Billion Speak, was written by an­
other former missionary to the
·Phillippine Islands, Frank C.
Laubach , whose unique system of
teaching illi.terates to read is
described in the September is­
sue of The Reader's Digest. Dr.
Laubach is scheduled to speak in
Portland this week.
Other · Doltz Memorial fund
books which may now be found
on the 'new book shelf' in the
library are Mother America, by
Carlos Romulo; CroiiB Winds of

and religion in the Philippines , a
selection which was made possible
by the Doltz Memorial fund.

Blue Ribbons To Roses
One-fifth of a formerly im­
penetrable forest of wild roses
has been converted into its
former state of orderliness. This
improvement is the result of
volunteer labor by Portland bus­
iness men under the leadership
of E. Victor Creed, president of
the Men's Garden Club of Lewis
and Clark college.
Over 260 roses have been
planted and room left for 400
more. Fertilizers and sprays are
supplied by interested people
and firms. ·
In the spring rose show, six
blue ribbons were awarded our
roses, while in the fall show
recently we won every prize
available in the division.
Roses which have recently
been developed are being test­
ed in our garden. Some of these
new types are Fantasia, Show
Girl, Mrs. Miniver and Gray
Pearl.
Mr. Creed expressed the
thought that students interested
in rose gardening as a hobby
are welcome to learn about._foses
during Saturday afternoons do­
ing actual work in the rose gar­
den.

"Pardon me, but can you tell
me where an alien goes to reg­
ister?" Honestly, the tables are
turned this year; it is we olcf
students who feel swallowed up
in all these new .faces. But don't
misunderstand ; we're·n t kicking.
In fact,. we're just bustin' with
pride to see our enrollment en­
larged so.
The situation proves a bit em­
barrassing, however, for those. of
us who "just can't remember
names." The difficulty wHh us
is in remembering the right faces
at the wrong times. So in the
future simply overlook it if some­
one bounds up and greets you
with "Well, hello-o ther-ub,
glub-Oh, I'm sorry, I thought
you were someone I know."
(AIJide to the men) "Glaad to see ya." You've saved us girls
from ·'the embarrassing situation
of explaining to visitors that ours
is a coed college.
Seriously ·, though, we can see
. a grand future. We hope you
newcomers will aCquire the same
feeling of love and pride for our
Ailna Mater that we experience.
Here we have a case of give
and take. Lewis and Clark has a
great deal to offer you if you'll
take advantage of it; and you, in
return, must pledge' your loyal
suppOrt to the idealS and tradi­
tions for which this college
stands. To a great extent the
cotlege b what we students make
it. Let's keep this a better-than­
ever student body.
rm sure all the old students
join tne in saying, "We lilfe you.
Welcome to Lewis and Clark." and Mrs. Jean Gordon Homer.

I ·By Norma YOU!lg
The eagerly anticipated advent­
ures of collegiate life were now
at hand as many of us freshmen
realized when we entered the
Lewis and Clark campus on that
first day of the otientation period.
In spite of our enormous green
ribbons and little freshie caps,
which were forced upon us, we
managed to have a good time and
get acquainted with the campus
during the tours, picnics, dances
and other activities.
A1J the faculty were fonnally
presented to us in a chapel meet­
ing and again when several of
the faculty members very in­
fol:ll"lally entertained us with the
can-can in the social hall, we
learned that the satisfaction of
good times as-well as the lifts of knowledge are enjoyed by all at
·Lewis and Clark.
we also discovered that a stu­
dent in this small college is not
considered as one unit in the
great mass of a student body,
but that each one of us has a
chance to become an individual.
While our college, like us, is
yet new," we know that it will
develop greatly . But may the
unique CQmbination of the sim­
ple, natural, wooded grounds plus
the traditional diJDity of the
orginal estate not be lost in the
growing process.
And u we continue our educa­
tion and go out into the world we
shall not only. be proud to say
"I belong to Lewis alfd Clark",
but "Lewis and Clark be­
longs I to me; I helped btilld her."
