' . . ' Last ~eek whe~ the LC base-
ball team. journeyed to Corvallis
for a doi.tble· header with Oregon
State, the weather condiiionS for
playing t.\le favorite n;ltional pas
time. were probably as unfavor
able as Old Mother Nature could
produce. Until noon it was just.
another beautiful Oregon day, but
by game ·ti~e an· unnatural (?)
element in the form of rain had
begun to fall on that quaint col
lege town. Naturally, being true
sportsman to the core, both
coaches and players agreed that
even some attempt at playing the
game was better than none.
T~e pitching and' batting areas
were the only parts ·of the· dia
mond that had been protected by
canvas, and soon after the game
started pitchers Wright of the
Pioneer11 and Sauvain of the
Beavers were ·having a difficult
time. keeping their balance-let
alone doing the pitching.
However, the weather must
have . been mpre to the liking of
the Be!!vers,' since they swept
the doub~~ header 7-2, 11-1. War
re!l, ·~im~s •. the footballer, hand
cuffed the Pioneers with a beaut
iful two hit pitching job in the
seven inning night cap. In the
fifth inning of that game Virgil
"Hoss" Gross did get ahold of
one of Simas' fast ones (Gross
claims it was the longest ball he
had ever tagged), but UtJfortun
ately for LC, the center fielder
who had been playing deep made
a nice running catch of it. Hoss
clainu the guy wa~> tn another ball
park.) It was this same Gross
who gave the rain soaked spec
tators an -exhibition of how an
experienced catcher blocks the
plate_ when in ·thi third. inning .
Beaver rur.ner attempted to score
from: second on a sinl{le. He did
n't make it.
Po1·tland Netters
Defeat Pioneers
On Pilot's Court
PorUand university's t e n n i s
team defeated the Lewis and
Clark team, five matches to two
last Saturday on the Pilot's
court~ In the top singl ~s encount
er, B1ll Preble of the Pioneers
was edged out by Berry of Port
land.
The results:
SinglE;s-Berry (P). defeated W.
Preble (L-C), 6-4, 7-5; T. Preble
(L-C) defeated Pool (P), 6-3, 6-2;
Peterson (P) defeated Hudson (L
C), 6-4, 6-0; Geil (L-C), defeated
Thalhofer (P), 4-6, 7-5; Thorpe
(P3, defeated Stephens (L-C) 6-1 6-1. • • Pacific university spoiled the
debut of the Pioneers into
Northwest Conference baseball
competition last Tuesday as the
Badgers emerged a 10 to 9 vJctor
in a game marked by extra base
hits and costly errors. ·
Lewis and Clark started out
fast with a run in the first inning
on doubles by McCluskey and
Gibson, but Pacific came back in
the second stanza to score 3 runs.
The score was tied again in the
4th inning and in the 8th.
Wright went the distance for
the Pioneers and gave up 14 hits.
Pacific used two pitchers, Hud
son and Reed, who gave up 14
hits also.
Virgil Gross, Pioneer catcher
hit a home-run through the cen~
t& field fence in the 7th inning
with no one on base. Bill Mc
Cluskey also scored a run with
a four base error by the Pacific
centerfielder in the 4th inning.

Baseball coach Robert Math

The Orange and Black team
makes its first appearance . of
the season tomorrow against the
Willamette ·'University Bearcats
at Salem. Although handicapped
by a lack of participants in the
different track and field events
the Pioneers .have ·men who ar~
expected to finish strongly in
their respective events.
Few time trials have been held
because weather conditions hav"
made it difficult for the ~en t~
get into the proper condition .
The field events have been taken
care of already though. Art Bak
ke, former state champion pole
vaulter, went 12 feet for his best
effort so far. Harold Howard has
high jumped 5'10" in his at
tempts. The discus was thrown
125 feet by Bob Pollard, and
Leonard Forsgren threw the jav
elin 166 feet. Harold Ellmer ~.
sprint man, ran the 660 yard run
in 1:29. He was the state title
holder of the 880 yard run in
1944.
Others looking good are Archie
McCrae in the sprints and low
h~rdles, Dave Radmore, middle
distances, Harry Tindall, 220 and
440, and Dave Moore in the mile.
. Moore will not run against Willa
mette due to a sprained ankle.
Pollard is another doubtful start
er also because of his ankle.

Bearcats :

Mathews. Bakke, Taylor,

Forsgren.

Coach Fix's hopes for a team
victory suffered because the loss

was figured to win .the discus

Today's fhe Big Day
To the student who hasn't yet voted in today's student
elections, we suggest you hur.ry to the polls and exercise
your right of franchise. Today is your only chance to choose
the people who will represent you in college politics for the
next year. A vote of the majority of students is sure to pick
the right candidate .
Do not let social affiliation affect your choice. Your
vote is secret. J?on't be afraid to give your own opinion.
You have read the Presidential candidates' platforms;
you have seen the political pamphlets of some of the other
nominees. Think clearly before you vote, and by all means
VOTE! "-cLKL

Lewis and Clark, is five years old and has fewer than 1000
students.
Thanks to John Elwood, who made a name for himself
and the college at the Chicago . conference, the leaders of this
orglmization deemed Lewis and Clark worthy of represen
lation in Denmark.
Last week it looked as if the whole thing would have
to be dropped. The student body budget couldn't stand an
:manticipated $1300 expenditure. But Tuesday's assembl-y
proved that the LC student body isn't completely dead, and
the challenge of raising $1300 seemed not-'50-big when some
one suggested that $1.50 per person would swing. it ..
Organizations are also expressing their willingness to
rally to the cause. Tonight's student body dinner will pave
the first lap of the journey for the lucky delegate . We under
stand Alpha Gamma is planning a dance to benefit the trip.
We hope the carnival committee will see in this international
conference a cause worthy of their support .
We think the goal can be reached before the deadline.
The important thing is that we all push together, not for our
sorority, fraternity or service organization, but fq_r the name
of the college. We can't pass up a chancle like-this!

Campus Cleanup
The trustees of the College have embarked upon a
fund-raising program which is planned to raise $200,000
between now and the end of the year for the completion
of the present structures. This is part of a total effort to
secure some $500,000 in a construction program covering
this year and next year.
Most of the money will be secured from comparatively
few donors. The trustees and friends of the College will
be bringing these potential donors to the campus during
the next few :qt.onths in orde_r to let them observe what is
being done in the college. It is iinportant that such visitors
have a most favorable impression of the campus and stu
dentl!. Lewis and Clark college has no support from public
taxes and, must 'carry out i~ building program, as well as
a part of its general financing, through the help of contri
butions.
A littered campus and untidy rooms have a chilling
effect upon their enthusiasm, for it indicates an indifferent
student body. The best way that students can help is through
maintaining a clean campus. It is to be hoped that each
student will not only refrain from dropping paper and clg·
arette stubs here and there, but will also adopt a second
line attitude and pick up misplaced coke bottles andl bits
of paper. -C. B. PIONEER LOG Friday, April 25, 1947

~ THE ~ ~ . THROW ANOTHER LOG
ON THE FIRE ..... i FIFTH I '= ~ I COLUMN I
By Jim . Sherbert
Many are the people who have ICiicL ••If I were King." Eney·
one feel• cel'!ain thai he ~uldi administer someone else's jOb better,
quicker, and more efficiently. The fact of the matter is thai these
aspirants seldom are ·qualified for the roles they covet and thei.l'
propond reforms are probably unnecesaary, Ulogical, and have at
~me time in history been pro'Yen w'Ol'thlns, eyen if unknown to
these reformers.
At a ball game, for example, some '"J'aucous character in the
cheaper seals will be continually yelling down to the moundsman
what type of pitch •hould be delivered to the next batt81', when
in reality all the heckler can throw is his voice, and that's generally .
poorly pitched, too. It's really odd to note how many inc,Uviduals
believe they can improve on another'• endea?ors .when they, the
improvers. do not have the background. practice, or innate ability
to even maintain the standards already in operation. ·
However, if I were a mystery
story writer (which I'm not) I
think I could d4> a lot better by
using a yet unheard of source
of. material, the 'personal' col
umn. Now the way I would
write. mystery-stories is to pick
out a good lead from this back
page column and follow it up.
Andy, meet me at 8:00 p.m.,
Ethel. Did ~thel hear from Andy
at 8:00? Was either one of them
packing a rod? Does P.M. mean
post-mortem? Then again, may
be the whole thing's in code;
Ethel, the name of a gasoline- .
8:00, eight cylinders-Pril., Pon
tiac with motor running. Simple,
a bank-robbery.
Once upon a long, long time
ago a bridge collapsed and six
persons were dashed to their
doom. Merely a news item until
Thornton Wilder investigated
the lives of these people. The
resulting narrative, "The Bridge
of San Luis Rey", is a perennial
favorite. It was a v.ery well writ
ten book, but x' do b~lieve he
,should have -well, that's an
other story. · This does bear out· my· '1>6int,
though-~hat there is· more in-.
trigue contained in one column
of 'personals ' than in a complete
library of works by Rex Stout, E.
Queen, Poe, and the others.
What a fountain of suspense
and fascination. I never fail to
wonder what answer lies behind
such a query. as "Did Grand
mother get there okay, if so,
what happened to all the money,
and Geor.ge has been missing
since April 24th, so send bac~
th~ 'thing' or else. Ealth us."
My goodness , what an omin
ous note. To this day I don't
know whether or not Grandma
made the trip, and the money,
Geo., and the 'thing', have left
me annoyed and worried.
So in closing, I say, if I were
King,-no, excuse me, if I were
writing ·mystery-stories, I surely
wouldn't overlook such an easily
available ; and mysterious reser
voir of material.
(Meet me in the c:ity park to·
night. You'll Jmo~ : me. I'll be

John Savage: No. A person

Al Combs: No. He can do a
better job when he isn't elected
so frequently .
Grace Bingham: Definitely not;
you get to know your job and.

-S. B. B. Injustice
To the Editor:
:r'here is an injustice many of
us are committing, undoubtedly
carelessly. It is the conversing
and yisiting in the study rooms.
I have felt sorry for the libra
rians for a long time in that ev
ery day, they have to check
these violations. What harm
would it do those of us who do
th,is thoughtlessly ·to apologize?
Let's put. ourselves in the other
person's place and try to see his
viewpoint. The crowded and
distracting environment so many
of us have recently experienced
in the military service is one of
the reasons most ·of us· have so
little regard for our potentia]
study time.
Harrison Irvine Theri Aqain • • •
To the Editor:
We are now sitting on the
steps of Copeland Memorial
Chapel, where study conditions
seem to be more ideal than· they
are in the library. The strain of
constantly being watched for fear
we'll· speak once is too much
for us.
With our student government
such as it is, aren't students
capable of self-discipline in the
library? 'l'here seems to be a
strain of dictatorship about our
library that, rather than being
conducive to study, is a hind
rance.

my while," smiled Maxine Gibbs,
senior, English major, after
she explained that the greatest
thrill of her 15 months in the

with Dave Gibbs.
It was while she was working
in the Wac Recruiting Headquar
ters in Washington, D. C., that
she met Dave, who was also con
nected with the recruiting head
quarters there, Dave Gibbs grad
uated from LC in '46. • ....
As a Wac recruiter, it was Max
ine's duty to give a final testing
and screening of all prospective
recruits: She met people from all
walks of lite, some of whom were
foreigners just becoming citizens.
And since she worked in the vic
inity of the White House grounds,
she also was able to see many of
the country:'.s outstanding people
such as the late president Roose

another beautiful Oregon day, but
by game ·ti~e an· unnatural (?)
element in the form of rain had
begun to fall on that quaint col

sportsman to the core, both
coaches and players agreed that
even some attempt at playing the
game was better than none.
T~e pitching and' batting areas
were the only parts ·of the· dia

canvas, and soon after the game
started pitchers Wright of the
Pioneer11 and Sauvain of the
Beavers were ·having a difficult
time. keeping their balance-let
alone doing the pitching.

cuffed the Pioneers with a beaut

fifth inning of that game Virgil
"Hoss" Gross did get ahold of
one of Simas' fast ones (Gross
claims it was the longest ball he
had ever tagged), but UtJfortun
ately for LC, the center fielder
who had been playing deep made
a nice running catch of it. Hoss

Today's fhe Big Day
To the student who hasn't yet voted in today's student
elections, we suggest you hur.ry to the polls and exercise
your right of franchise. Today is your only chance to choose
the people who will represent you in college politics for the
next year. A vote of the majority of students is sure to pick
the right candidate .
Do not let social affiliation affect your choice. Your
vote is secret. J?on't be afraid to give your own opinion.
You have read the Presidential candidates' platforms;
you have seen the political pamphlets of some of the other
nominees. Think clearly before you vote, and by all means
VOTE! "-cLKL
Delegate to Denmark
T~e 1945 World Almanac lists almost 1000 senior coll~ges
and universities in the Uri1ted States. Of these institutions,
15 have been selected to send delegates to the International
Student conference next sumer in Denmark. Fourteen of the
colleges have enrollments of 15,000 or more. The fifteenth,
Lewis and Clark, is five years old and has fewer than 1000
students.
Thanks to John Elwood, who made a name for himself
and the college at the Chicago . conference, the leaders of this
orglmization deemed Lewis and Clark worthy of represen
lation in Denmark.
Last week it looked as if the whole thing would have
to be dropped. The student body budget couldn't stand an
:manticipated $1300 expenditure. But Tuesday's assembl-y
proved that the LC student body isn't completely dead, and
the challenge of raising $1300 seemed not-'50-big when some
one suggested that $1.50 per person would swing. it ..
Organizations are also expressing their willingness to
rally to the cause. Tonight's student body dinner will pave
the first lap of the journey for the lucky delegate . We under
stand Alpha Gamma is planning a dance to benefit the trip.
We hope the carnival committee will see in this international
conference a cause worthy of their support .
We think the goal can be reached before the deadline.
The important thing is that we all push together, not for our
sorority, fraternity or service organization, but fq_r the name
of the college. We can't pass up a chancle like-this!

Campus Cleanup
The trustees of the College have embarked upon a
fund-raising program which is planned to raise $200,000
between now and the end of the year for the completion
of the present structures. This is part of a total effort to
secure some $500,000 in a construction program covering
this year and next year.
Most of the money will be secured from comparatively
few donors. The trustees and friends of the College will
be bringing these potential donors to the campus during
the next few :qt.onths in orde_r to let them observe what is
being done in the college. It is iinportant that such visitors
have a most favorable impression of the campus and stu
dentl!. Lewis and Clark college has no support from public
taxes and, must 'carry out i~ building program, as well as
a part of its general financing, through the help of contri
butions.
A littered campus and untidy rooms have a chilling
effect upon their enthusiasm, for it indicates an indifferent
student body. The best way that students can help is through
maintaining a clean campus. It is to be hoped that each
student will not only refrain from dropping paper and clg·
arette stubs here and there, but will also adopt a second
line attitude and pick up misplaced coke bottles andl bits
of paper. -C. B. PIONEER LOG Friday, April 25, 1947

~ THE ~ ~ . THROW ANOTHER LOG
ON THE FIRE ..... i FIFTH I '= ~ I COLUMN I
By Jim . Sherbert
Many are the people who have ICiicL ••If I were King." Eney·
one feel• cel'!ain thai he ~uldi administer someone else's jOb better,
quicker, and more efficiently. The fact of the matter is thai these
aspirants seldom are ·qualified for the roles they covet and thei.l'
propond reforms are probably unnecesaary, Ulogical, and have at
~me time in history been pro'Yen w'Ol'thlns, eyen if unknown to
these reformers.
At a ball game, for example, some '"J'aucous character in the
cheaper seals will be continually yelling down to the moundsman
what type of pitch •hould be delivered to the next batt81', when
in reality all the heckler can throw is his voice, and that's generally .
poorly pitched, too. It's really odd to note how many inc,Uviduals
believe they can improve on another'• endea?ors .when they, the
improvers. do not have the background. practice, or innate ability
to even maintain the standards already in operation. ·
However, if I were a mystery
story writer (which I'm not) I
think I could d4> a lot better by
using a yet unheard of source
of. material, the 'personal' col
umn. Now the way I would
write. mystery-stories is to pick
out a good lead from this back
page column and follow it up.
Andy, meet me at 8:00 p.m.,
Ethel. Did ~thel hear from Andy
at 8:00? Was either one of them
packing a rod? Does P.M. mean
post-mortem? Then again, may
be the whole thing's in code;
Ethel, the name of a gasoline- .
8:00, eight cylinders-Pril., Pon
tiac with motor running. Simple,
a bank-robbery.
Once upon a long, long time
ago a bridge collapsed and six
persons were dashed to their
doom. Merely a news item until
Thornton Wilder investigated
the lives of these people. The
resulting narrative, "The Bridge
of San Luis Rey", is a perennial
favorite. It was a v.ery well writ
ten book, but x' do b~lieve he
,should have -well, that's an
other story. · This does bear out· my· '1>6int,
though-~hat there is· more in-.
trigue contained in one column
of 'personals ' than in a complete
library of works by Rex Stout, E.
Queen, Poe, and the others.
What a fountain of suspense
and fascination. I never fail to
wonder what answer lies behind
such a query. as "Did Grand
mother get there okay, if so,
what happened to all the money,
and Geor.ge has been missing
since April 24th, so send bac~
th~ 'thing' or else. Ealth us."
My goodness , what an omin
ous note. To this day I don't
know whether or not Grandma
made the trip, and the money,
Geo., and the 'thing', have left
me annoyed and worried.
So in closing, I say, if I were
King,-no, excuse me, if I were
writing ·mystery-stories, I surely
wouldn't overlook such an easily
available ; and mysterious reser
voir of material.

The Theta Kappa gals had
themselves a trip to Cannon
Beach last week-end. Loyal
members went ,because (1) they
like the ocean. (2) they. were
afraid of being torn to pieces by
the all-night gossip session i1'
they didn't go.
One feature of the brawl was
when pajama-clad candid cam
era fiends snapped their like
wise-clad sisters. These pictures

decided to deny a devoted Amer

The staff's feelings w~re sum-.
med up by "Diamond" Jim Har

the annual-blow that ten-spot

And someone asked, "But how

-S. B. B. Injustice
To the Editor:
:r'here is an injustice many of
us are committing, undoubtedly
carelessly. It is the conversing
and yisiting in the study rooms.
I have felt sorry for the libra
rians for a long time in that ev
ery day, they have to check
these violations. What harm
would it do those of us who do
th,is thoughtlessly ·to apologize?
Let's put. ourselves in the other
person's place and try to see his
viewpoint. The crowded and
distracting environment so many
of us have recently experienced
in the military service is one of
the reasons most ·of us· have so
little regard for our potentia]
study time.
Harrison Irvine Theri Aqain • • •
To the Editor:
We are now sitting on the
steps of Copeland Memorial
Chapel, where study conditions
seem to be more ideal than· they
are in the library. The strain of
constantly being watched for fear
we'll· speak once is too much
for us.
With our student government
such as it is, aren't students
capable of self-discipline in the
library? 'l'here seems to be a
strain of dictatorship about our
library that, rather than being
conducive to study, is a hind
rance.
Is it our student government,
our school, our libr&r7 -or
isn't it?

"Spending several months in Marshall, and General Dwight D ..
the WACs was certainly worth
my while," smiled Maxine Gibbs,
senior, English major, after
she explained that the greatest
thrill of her 15 months in the

with Dave Gibbs.
It was while she was working
in the Wac Recruiting Headquar
ters in Washington, D. C., that
she met Dave, who was also con
nected with the recruiting head
quarters there, Dave Gibbs grad
uated from LC in '46. • ....
As a Wac recruiter, it was Max
ine's duty to give a final testing
and screening of all prospective
recruits: She met people from all
walks of lite, some of whom were
foreigners just becoming citizens.
And since she worked in the vic
inity of the White House grounds,
she also was able to see many of
the country:'.s outstanding people
such as the late president Roose
elt, Harry Truman, George C.
