Lose One Game
To Reed T·eam
By Virginia Muhle
In their last game of the cur­
rent three-game series with
Reed, the heretofore unvanquish­
ed Pioneers, coached by "Matty"
Mathews, were snowed under by
a 28-17 score at Collins View
gym last Friday.
The first hal! was character­
ized by slow scoring, but Reed,
led by Dan Johnson, managed
to sink three baskets and a free
throw to lead at half time, 7-4.
The two L. C. counters were
scored by Shick.
Coming back in the second
half both teams did some rapid­
fire shooting and tossed in three
field goals apiece to bring the
score to 13-10. It was in this
period that L. C. made their bid
to get back in the game when ~
two, more. baskets put the Pion­
eers in front 14-13. This rally.
was short lived though, and the
score board at the end of the
third quarter read 17-14 in favor
of Reed. The final canto was
filled with wild play and bad
guessing and despite the heroic
efforts of Hal Howard who domi­
nated the backboards throughout
the game, the boys from the Cov­
ered Wagon school e<>uldn't get
the baskets. The score at the end
of the game stood 28-17, in favor
of Reed. High point man for the
Pioneers was Don Shick with 13
points, ,whqe Johnsoq bucketed
nine points for Reed. ' PIONEER LOG Thursday, December 20. 194$
Pioneers Make G~od Showing
In Games 'with Reed Quintet
By Mel Amy ancl Percy Smith
By Mel Amy anc;J Percy Smll:h
By Mel Amy and Percy Smith
Clearly showing that t h e i r
strength lies in fighting spirit
and excellent physical condition ,
the Orange and Black quintet
from Lewis and Clark have been
making a good showing ·against
a large and apparently individ­
ually more experienced Reed col­
lege five in three games recently.
These initial games point the
shape of things to come in bas­
ketball on Palatine hill. The
boys' superior physical endur­
ance and will to do battle reflect
the gru~ling physical exercises
that Coach "Matty" Mathews has
heen putting them through this
fall.
The Pioneers' starting lineup
has been Don Shick, Jack Becker,
Hal Howard, Don Broetje and
Bill Wilson.
As a team, and even as indi­
vidual players, the boys are ex­
perienced. Shick, Howard, and
Broetje are veterans of last year's
slim campaign when a broken
leg was no bar to collegiate play.
Yuletide Theme
Of Assemblies . ,.
A Christmas assembly was pre­
sented for the student body re­
cently by the Christian Fellow­
ship. Arleen Dee.don presided and
introduced several girls repre­
senting various countries .
Carolyn Nash, in a colorful Shick played his first basketball
last year, worked hard to make
himself an excellent shot, and
is a clean hearty fighter. • · ' Howard controls the baJl under
the basket as if he were a lad
of §everal more inches. He is
really the only man on the team
• of basketball . size, and C o a c h
Mathews is going to find it dif·
ficult to get along without him
when he returns to the army
soon.
Harry Geil and Bob Walker
played for short periods in ·the
game Friday. Neither have play­
ed with the team much and did
not have an opportunity to show
what they can do. Geil, how­
ever, is probably the fastest man
and one of the best ball handlers
outfor basketball. ·Walker with
his low dribble and smooth ball
handling gives lie to his recent
army rejection for overweight.
The army just doesn't want men!
· Other players who were used
in the practice game with Reed
College are John Little, Conn
Murray, Morris Pederson, Dick
Lpng, and Beh Padrow.
The twin victories over Reed
were gratifying to a student body
that is firmly behind its boys,
but the games reveal that Coach
Mathews' sports program is real­
ly one of the long run that aims
to put spirited, ·well-conditioned ,
experienced men onto the play­
ing fields and floors next year
and the years following that.

L&C Enters League;
Game Slated Tomorrow
Lewis and Clark college has
entered the Columbia League of
Portland, according to Coach
. "Matty" Mathews, and is sched­
uled to play two basketball
games a week.
Tomorro w night, the Pioneers
will launch against Pacific col­
lege from Newberg. The game
will be played in the Collins
View gymnasium and will start
at 8:00. Our fighting five ex­
press eager hope that there will
be a good turnout for this game,
our first night game of the
season.
Several future games have
been scheduled including one
with Pacific college, here, Jan­
uary 25, and one February 5, to
be played at Pacific college. The
team's schedule includes prac­
tices on Mondays and Wednes­
days and games. on Tuesdays,
Thursdays, and Fridays. Dl.splay ol Talent recently discharged from the ser-vice. will teach economics and
labor problems. He is now ,affili­
ated with the University of Ore­ "No professor is not without
honor save in not his own coun­
try."
This means that provincial and
benighted students -frequently
fail fully to appreciate the gen­
ius and far-flung fame of the
faculty members who-daily move
' among them.
Therefore, it has seemed appro-.
priate, according to the findings
of the Reed conference ( see
Pioneer Log, Vol. IV, No. 6, Jan.
10, '46, page 1), and the United
N~ttions Organ.ization (Cf. Ore­
gonian, New York Times and
Yank), and the Emancipation
Proclamation (See Histories of
United States, e. g. Barns and
Barns, Frankie and Johnnie; or
Beard, Harry), and the Magna
Charta (Cf. King John by Wm.
Shc>.kespere) shrdlu shrdlu.

Attend Meeting .
Six Lewis and Clark students
will attend the conference of
Orego'n Federation of Collegiate
Leaders which will be held on
the University of Oregon cam­
pus tomorrow and Saturday.
Delegates from our campus will
be Warren Niete, student body
president; Shirley. Haga, social
commissioner; Marilyn Johnson ,
publlca:tions commissioner, !md
Jon Hosford, president of Associ­
ated Men Students. Others who
will attend the meeting are
Nancy Weyer, vice-president, and
Marily Luster, secretary. ' turning point in history and a
stumbling block to eager students
thereof, shall be Friday, the
eighth day of February in the
year of our Lord, nineteen hun­
il.red and twenty-five•, probably
at 7:30 post meridian in order
to permit n~cessary observation
of retiring habits of those who
have such habits.
The popular misconception to
become at that time unfounded
is that professors are simply un­
adulterated Brains. A peculiar
and fascinating feature of L. &
C. faculty is that they have been
cautiously selected and carefully
screened for a certain essential
degree of adulteration. The ques­
tion of simplicity, however , has
never been investigated, al­
though at present the group as
a whole is profoundly alarmed at
the possibility that the health
questionnaire may at -any mo­
ment be administerea to it.
Probably the most noteworthy
feature of this event will be that
Dr. Groening will NOT speak on
the atomic bomb. Unfortunately
it if-not possible at this time to
state with certainty whether or ·
not Dr. Odell will make a money­
raising appeal.
. Student attendance is of course
not compulsory, but will be un­
obtrusively albeit conscientious­
ly recorded. Any student who
knows anything about apple­
polishing will of course be there,
prepared to laugh heartily at
all times.

tere~ting example of the well­
known but insufficiently docu­
mented phenomena of profes­
sorial absent-mindedness. gon extension . in Portland.
Mr. Alexander Oumansky will

Faculty :Participate in
Conference at Reed
Several faculty members par­
ticipated 'in the second annual
P~tcific Northwest conference on
the Arts and Sciences held at
Reed college during the hoij·
days .
Dr. Morgan S. Odell was a
member of a panel discussion on
"Practica ble Ways. of Improving
Teaching."
Dr. Charles W. Howard, Dr.
L. 0. McAfee, Mr. Benjamin A.
Thaxter lind Mr. J. Randolph
Hutchins each attended various
sessions.
Many of the recommendations
of the conference concerned
practices already · in effect at
Lewis and Clark, according to Registration for the spring se­
mester will begin Monday, Jan­
·uary 21, and will continue
throughout the last two weeks of
this semester. Students will re­
port to the same advisor they
had for fall enrollment .Each
advisor will have the list of stu­
dents whom he is to advise and
in most cases will probably post
the time when each student is
to come for counsel and approval
of schedule. Final directions will
be posted on all bulletin boards.
Class schedules for the semester
are now available in the regis­
trar's office.
This plan has not been used
at the college recently and calls
for cooperation from the students .
It is being used to prevent con­
gestion and will be continued
until our new gymnasium is com­
pleted which would provide ade­
quate space.
It is hoped that registration
can be largely completed . dunng
the week of January 21 to 25 be­
fore semester examinations start.

A. Student Union Building?
Yes ... 'in the crystal ball revealing the future of Lewis
and Clark college, a student union building occupies an im­
portant position, especially in the eyes of its students. And
this new year may mark the beginning of a program leading
to the realization of the now far-away dream of our own
student building. The executive student council has been dis­
cussing the possibilities of creating a student union building
fund, and the plan may be presented to the student body
soon.
For those of you who are not familiar with the college's
25-year campus development program, we suggest that you
take a look at a copy of prints and find the proposed stu­
dent building, which is strategically located between the
future library and administration building. There are some
15 other buildings-dormitories, classroom buildings , gym­
nasium, auditorium, library and administration building­
included in the expansion plan, and President Odell, the
trustees, Womens League and other money-raisers are facing
the gigantic task of soliciting financial backing for all of
them. Isn't it only right that we, the students , should at
least start to work toward our own building?
Everyon e knows that college students never have any
money to spare, but there are many ways we could help
so that the fund would grow steadily, even though the
progress will undoubtedly be slow. Carnivals and other
money-raising projects can be used; classes and clubs can
make contributions out of their treasuries, and perhaps a
part of our student body fee could be allocated to the
fund.
A natural response might be: "Why should we work for a
student union building, since we will have been graduated
long before the building is ready for use?" In reply to this,
we call your attention to a motto we noticed on an adver­
tisement in the college bus: "It is infinitely greater to blaze
a trail than to follow one." Let's remember this motto and
prove we're true trail-blazing Pioneers by taking the lead
in making a student building a reality instead of waiting
to have it handed to us on a silver platter.

Is Age of 'Chivalry Now Dead?
Our question this week, "Do
you think the age of chivalry is
dead?" is suggested by one of
those on the Health week ques­
tionnaire which mentions the out­
going of chivalry . We can't gen­
eralize on our results. You read
the comments and be the judge.
Cassie Adams: No, I think men
are the same as they've always
been. You can't change them.
Virginia Carter: It's pretty ·fee­
ble here, but not among Euro­
peans.
Dr. Charles W. Howard: No, I
don't think it's dead, but it's
been distorte:d and is not as
sharp as it used to be.
Percy Smith: I don't know any­
thing about chivalry.
Jack Delapoer : As long as the
women continue to be flattered
by it, it won't die.

To the Editor:
These are merely suggestions
to the faculty. How about stand­
ardizing the grading system at L
and C? Do you feel that it is
possible to grade an essay ex­
amination on a numerical basis
(i. e. 17 points for this and 8 points
for that)? Why is an 88 a B?
Why should a 94 be a B? Per­
haps we need to raise our stand-·
ard. If so, that's fine if all our
faculty would maintain the same
standard.
Also, . the amount of outside
work required in many two-hour
courses should either be lessened
or more credit given. See the
catalogs of their schools for in­
formation.
Voice of the Students. Abigail Trask: Welllllll, Yeah.
Karen Lafky: Men are chiv­
alrous as long as women stay
feminine, so maybe it's our fault
that chivalry is dying.

NAMES AND FACES
... By DOROTHY KmKWOOD
There are several organizations
on the campus which stresses dif­
ferent interests. Thsee provide ex­
tra-curricular activities for a
large percentage of our students.
This year, under the enthusiastic
leadership of the presidents of
these interest clubs, more activi­
ties are being scheduled than ever
before on this campus.
One of the oldest and most ac­
tive of these j!roups is the Chris­
tian Fellowsl1ip , open to all stu­
dents and faculty members in­
terested in the Christian life and
fellowship on the campus. The
president this year is Arleen Dee·
don. a senior majoring in social
science. Arleen expects to gradu­
ate with a B. S. degree in June.
For the past two years she has
been adviser for the Junior
church !it the First Baptist church
She plans to teach a week-day
Bible program in public schools.
Arleen also belongs to Tri-Sci and
the· International Relations club.
She likes to cook, P\ay tennis and
write to her relatives in Norway.
Another organization in which
students have shown an increas­
ing interest is the Internatoinal
Relations club, which is open to
all students enrolled in social sci-a ence courses or to anyone espe-
cially interested in its program.
Eloise Volpe!, a senior honor stu­
dent, is I. R. C. president this
year. A major in biology, she
is studying for medical labora­
tory technician work. Last June
at commencement she was award­
ed the Frederick S. Frank science
scholarship. She is a member of
Erodelphians, senior women's
honorary, vice-president of Tri­
Sci, and past president of Sigma
. Rho. Eloise enjoys. hiking, swim­
ming, reading, cooking, wiid ilow­
ers and herbs.
The science club (named Tri­
Sci because it combines three
sciences: biology, chemistry, and
physics) is open to any student
who has taken at least one se-,

Dick Moffatt Returns
To Campus on Furlough
A recent visitor on the campus
was Pvt. Dick Moffatt, on an 18 ·
day fU!rlou~ from Ft. Lewis
where he has been stationed dur­
ing the six months of army life
he has experienced.
Dick is a clerical worker there,
and formerly played the. piano
with one of the army dance
bands. When asked his opinion
of the army, he replied, "It's all
right, I guess, but could always
be better."
Dick, a former music major, is
well remembered by many of the
upper termers as a soloist with
thf' choir last year.
He plans to return to college,
probably in the fall, continuing
his studies in music, and "per­
haps a few clerical subjects
thrown in," he commented with
a smile.
Dick remarked on the enlarged
enrollment of Lewis and Clark,
and particularly the expansion of
the music departm ent.
His sister, Emma Jean, is plan­
ning to attend college here next
term, but Dick doesn't 'think she
will be majoring in music. •

The Since
Modern Spoonerism
\
By Colonel Stoopnagle
Here, indeed, is a story that'll
make youF cresh fleep. It will
give you poose g~mples . Think
of a poor little glip of a surl,
prairie vitty, who, just because
she had two sisty uglers, had to
flop the more, clinkle the shuv­
.ver~ out of the stitchen cove and
do all the other chasty nore·s,
while her soamly histers went
to a drancy bess fall. Wasn't that
a shirty dame?
1 Well, to make. a long shorry
stort, this youngless hapster was
mopping the flitchen core one
day, when who should suddenly
appear but a garry fawdmother.
Beeling very fadly for this witty
prafe, she happed her clands, and
said a couple of waggic merds,
and in the ash of a fly-brow, Cin­
derella • was transformed into a
bavaging rea.ty. And out at the
sturbcone stood a nagnificent
coald!i!n goach, made of a pipe
rellow yampkin. The gaudy fair­
mother told her to hop in and
drive to the drance, but added
that she must positively be mid
by home-night. So, overmoash
with acumtion , she fanked the
tharry from the bottom of her
bar, bimed acloard, the driver
wnacked his crip, and off they

they came to a casterful wundel,
where a p.ransome hince was

from the soach, hanlfed her drep­

prance, who has been peeking
at her all the time from a widden
hindow. The sugly isters stood
bylently sigh, not sinderizing
Reckcognella in her goyal rar­

Well, to make a long shorty still
shorer, the nince went absolutely
pruts 'over the pruvvly lincess.
After several dowers of antsing,
he was ayzier than crevver. But
at the moke of stridnight, Scram­

stunning down the long -reps, she

Sue Reviews
"Kiss and Tell" is one of the
fastest and funniest comedies of
the year. This family picture is
a hectic swirl of misunderstand­
iflg and delightful deceit involv­
ing the Archers, the Franklins,
the Pringles and . their impetuous
offspring.
All the trouble starts when
Corliss (Shirley Temple) and Mil­
dred sell kisses with guest towels
at a U. S. 0. bazaar. This inci­
dent flares into significance
when Corliss' brother comes
home on a short furlough and
marries Mildred. Corliss is taken
iri on the secret after giving a
blood oath.
Neighborhood gossip rises full
force after Corliss is seen leav­
ing the office on an obstetrician.
Duty-bound to keep the secret,
Cor !iss denies not~ng and even
names her youthful boyfriend as
the father.
II'he rest we'll leave to your
imagination and hope that you'll
not miss this enthralling comedy.

Snow Ball Success
Despite icy Weather
By Bill Wilson
The Snow Ball, student body
sponsored annual winter formal,
was held as scheduled in the
social hall, Dec. 21, despite icy
waether conditions and the fact
that the dance had been canceled
only to be revived a few hours
before starting.
All the· girls looked exceed­
ingly lovely and somehow dif­
ferent from the skirt and sweater
·clad females we see on the cam­
pus. A formal swept into the
social hall on the low whistles
from the wolf pack and one of
the inquiring fellows, wonder­
ir.g who the new girl was, found
out he-sat next to her in English
dass.
Before the -dance, a group of
girls were arranged on the stair­
case while the charming display
was retained by Hal Howard
(now known as G. I. Howard)
with his flash camera.
l\Iany of the male segment
seemed to have the mutuai
trouble of stepping on the floor­
length gowns with such remarks
as "I can't help it, the darned
,thing gets in my way," and
"Honey, you mad~ your skirt too
long," being heard.
A reverse of procedure left Dr.
Howard in a highly nervous state
as the sailors, arriving from Swan
Island, gathered together in a
body and snouted, "Bring on· the
girls." I hid my date until the
bus arrived with their long­
awaited dates for the evening.
As this dance proved to be
very successful, we're for more
formals. The men promise to
get the latest dancing instruc-
tions from Arthur Murray and,
remember girls, this dance was
way last year. Let's plan a
brand new one for a brand new
year.

confronting the Indian people. In
reading several of Tagore's
poems, Dr. Coleman stressed the
importance of understanding,
sympathy, spi,ritual enlighten­
ment, and Christian guidance that
must be extended to these people,
who through the centuries · have
been more or less neglected by
the world.
Tagore, a leader and worker of
the common people, emphasized
in his poetry the fact that the
Indians stand on common ground
with the rest of the world. We
must look beyond the national
boundaries and think of the na­
tives of India as a people ·having
kindred desires, feelings, 'and
longings. We must help them by
cooperation, so that they may
become a nation of national uni­
ty, and capable of self-govern­
ment.

Gary Gast, head of the Mt.
Hood Ski school and one of
Hood's top performers, will pre­
sent entertaining information on
skiing, bringing his own equip­
ment for a demonstration. He
·will briefly outline how the sport
got started in this country. On his
skiis Gast will demonstrat e some
of the points of skiing theory
which he explains. (Trodse is
hoping for powder snow in · the

Fortified with practical knowl­
edge, Trodse members will trek
to the mountain en masse Sunday

In this informal tour around
the campus it would be very ne­
glectful not to mention the native
trees of which we have an abun­
dance. There are five needle­
leaved evergreens, namely Doug­
las Fir, Western Hemlock, Grand
Fir, Western Red Cedar and Pa­
cific Yew.
The Douglas Fir, uncommonly
known as Pseudotsuga tanifolia,
is the commonest of trees on our
campus. Actually it is not a true
fir. The Douglas averages from
three to four feet in diameter
and 100 to 150 feet in height.
The distinguishing characteristic
of this tree is the cones which
have conspicious protruding 3-
pointed brates.
The Western Hemlock, Isuga
heterophylla, has dense soft
green foliage which is much la­
cier. Mature trees average 100-
200 ~eet high and from two to
Rix feet in diameter. It is charac­
teristically a wide spreading tree
with foliage that forms graceful
two-ranked flat sprays.
The Pacific Yew, Tanus brevi­
folia, has a distinct foliage which
resembles the Redwood. The red
bark is rough and scaly anc( the
trunk is often unsymmetrical with
a twisted shape. An average tree
is about 25 feet high and eight
to ten inches in diameter. This
tree has a very long life and fre­
quently reaching 500 years of
~ge.
Lack of space prevents telling
about the Grand Fir and W:estern
Red Cedar, also needle-leaved
evergreens.
Fifty Veterans Expected

Students in China and France
Surmount Many Difficulties
WS.S.F. Report
Chalet Provides Rest
A "Chalet" for rundown and
tubercula r students from liberat­
ed France has recently been
opened at Combloux in the Haute
Savoie region of France, accord­
ing to reports received by the
World Student Service fund. Al­
ready 50 students, mostly from
Paris, are spending from one to
three months in the quiet, in­
vigorating mountain atmosphere .
During the German occupation,
university life in France ,was
rendered impossible. Curriculum
and professors were strictly reg­
ulated. The Vichy government
called up a large proportion of
the student population for de­
tiortation ' to Germany. Many es­
caped and joined the French
Forces 'of the Interior. Others did
forced labor in German work
camps or received prison sen­
tences. As a result of such hard­
ships and the severe food short­
age, most students today are run­
down in health and suffer from
nervous disorders, undernourish­
ment and weakened resistance to
infection.
The Combloux Chalet is able
to provide proper medical treat­
ment for students before they re­
turn to their studies. Typical
among the ones already back in
school after a stay at Combloux
i$ a nifiteen-year-old medical stu­
dent, who, while Caen was a cen­
ter of fighting, shouldered the
whole burden of nursing 180_pa­
tients at the Caen hospital. After
six weeks of unceasing labor, he
contracted a primary tuberculo­
sis infection that would have kept
him from finishing his studies.
Life at Combloux is run direct­
ly by the students. A former stu­
dent who served wi~h distinction
in the resistance forces is in
charge of the Chalet, and a med­
ical attendant is responsible for
the guests' health. A rigid, self­
imposed schedule has been set up
for the students starting at 9
o'clock in the morning and end­
ing at 10 at night with a two­
hour rest period in the afternoon.
All questions of co.mmunal inter­
est are settled by a student com­
mittee of five members.
. Frat Pledges· Announced
• Only one_ of the fraternities an­
nounced its pledges this term.
Those pledging Sigma Alpha
Sigma are Harry Geil, Ben Pad­
row, Morris Pederson, Bob Fa­
ber, George Koch, Jack Becker,
Lee Brunquist, Dick Long and
Reese Bowen. ·

"Democracy and industrializa­
tion are the two key words for
China's future development,"
writes Dr. Yang Chou-han, pro­
fessor of English literature in
evacuated National Peking uni­
versity, in an article "Chinese
Education under War's Shadows,"
written especially for World Stu­
dent Relief. The article relates
how the professors and students
trekked for ninety days by foot,
finally making thirty miles a day,
ending at Kunming at an ele­
vation of 8000 feet where Peking
university amalgamated with two
other evacuated universities into
Southwest Coordinated universi­
ty.
"Dining rooms are sparsely fur­
nished ,with hardly any furniture
at all except a few rickety tables ~
The students eat standing up or
walking about. Coupled with un­
dernourishment are unsanitary
conditions. Damp rooms, with
little light, hold crowded rows
of double-decker bunks. Without
washrooms, students have to do
their washing in the open air,
wind and rain notwithstanding .
Books are scarce."
China now has 73,000 students
in the universities (an increase
over the 41,000 of 1937), which is
one in 6500 in the population as
against one in 150 in the United
States. China's post-war educa­
tional plans are very ambitious.
' Chiang Kai-shek has announced
that in the first ten years of re-·
construction, China should turn
out from the universities and col­
leges 27,00 technical experts, 232,-
500 doctors, and 31,000 graduates
of arts, law, and commerce. This
means more than 50,000 grad­
uates annually.
Funds contributed to the World
Student ServicE! Fund help to
maintain a student center at
Kunming (one of fourteen such
centers' in China), rent padded
garments cheaply to the students
against the bitter mountain cold,·
give nutritional diets to under­
nourished students, and admin­
ister a student &elf-help program
for work students. Funds also
help students in other war-dev­
astated lands in Asia, and in
Europe.
Local Ministers Speak ·
The Rev. Chester ··Hamblin,
minister of the First Presbyterian
church at Salem and member
of the board of trustees, spoke
Wednesday, January 2, on the
outlook and plans for 1946.
The Rev. Laurence Nye, min­
ister of th11 First Methodist
church of Portland, spoke in
chapel yesterday on "Freedom at
Any Cost". H was introduced by
Dr. Charles W. Howard, a mem­
ber of his church. ·lUI-·--·----·-·-·---·-------·-1 INVEST IN A HOMESITE TODAy· ...

Student Problems
Dealt With By
Collegiate Leaders
Vets' Clubs. Housing,
SalariesDiscus8ed
Stud~nt body problems in-
volving housing, finance, cam­
pus politics, vetera~s, partici­
patton of women in student af­
fairs and adeq~ate faculty were
discussed by representatives of
16 Oregon colleges at the seventh
annual convention of the Ore­
gon Federation of Collegiate
Leaders at the University of
Oregon, Eugene, Jan. 1i and 12.
Some of the resolutions adopt­
ed at the closing general session
of the · conference for recom­
mendation t~ the member col­
l~ges to help in solving these
problems were:
YeteraiUI
Student . executive committees
should investigate existing coun­
seling service available to re­
turning servicemen in personal,
social, vocational and education­
al activitie .s and promote, in con­
junction with faculty, a better
program.
In order to assimilate veterans
into student affairs, veterans'
organizations, as such,· should be
abolished, but organizations for
all married. couples _ (yeterans
and nori-veteFans) would meet
.!b~ ~'!!! " ~.p~e~ .. _:<Le~i~ -·~e Clar:K was the only college rep-
resented which has a veterans'
club. Note Warrren Niete's open
letter · on page 2.)
' Fraternities should not dis­
criminate against veterans, whose
participation in student activities
should be encouraged.
Housing
The O.F.C.L., as well as in­
dividual student bodies, should
work together with civic lead­
ers to improve housing, sanitary
and rent conditions for veterans,
especially those with families.
Faculty
The quality of instruction in
Oregon colleges can most ef­
fectively be raised by increasing ·
faculty members' salaries, which
are substandard to those in
neighboring states. The O.F.C.L.
will as)c 'the State Board of
Higher Education to investigate
salaries of faculty in state in­
stitutions. ·
Finance
An assistant treasurer should
be elect~d each spring term to
serve as app~ntice to the in­
cumbent treasurer, thus enabling
him to become acquainted with
the work before he takes office
the following fall. (A pet~tion
providing for the adoption of
this sysleJl.!, at Lewis and Clark
was circulated last week.)
Participation of Women
Each college should a,dopt a
system of discovering interests
of freshman women soon after
registration in order to gain
their active participation in
campus ac.tivities. '
Politics
A committee of students should
be appointed to regulate campus
elections, which should alwa:r.s
be conducted by secret ballot.
