' A ·Salute to Senator Morse
The Congress-approved Senator Morse bill to rais'e the
amount of subsistence for veterans can be considered the
best piece of legislation to come out of Washington this year
for the many student veterans here, who despite the shackl
ing effect of a rising cost of living are doggedly struggling
up the path of higher educatjon in hope that it will lead to
a better way of life.
The bill allows for the cashing of terminal leave bonds
after September 1st, which will make it possible to those
who need the ready cash for school to enter this fall, or
those who have graduated to go into business without' going
further into debt, and raises subsistence payments of single
veterans to $75, married veterans to $105; and married vet
erans with children to $120 per montq.
. This ·form of encouragement came at a· crucial time
when hard-pressed student veterans could not see how to
make ends meet and still carry a full academic load. That ·
they ·h~ve proven themselves worthy of such a nati~nal in
vestment is shown by their excellent record here as active
and straight-thinking participants in the whole campus life.
To see that a policy maker of such a calibre as our Sen
ator from Oregon still believes that a well-educated youth
is the real wealth of a nation is reassurin~ in these rugged
days when optimistic action is a precious thing. 1

Re: . "Do Student
Vets Think?"
To the Editor.
ln laking ' a sta!ld upon the
ques .ti~~ ' , "Do G. I. students
think?" as presented by Dr. Odell
at a recent chapel period, our
editorial writer (July 11) vigor
ously declares that they excel
in this field anl;i offer.s as con
clusive proof the ten-m-inute
breaks between classes and the
midnight "bull sessions" in the I • dorm. .
• I have been a rather diffident
participant in a few of these
scholarly sessions, but as yet have
been unable to make any practi
cal application of -the amazing
knowledge imparted the1·e, by
reason of the mores of the ;lay
which militate against a tamily
man taking an · interest in the
contours of co-eds. However, it
is not to be inferred that such
a pastime is anything but a. pleas
ant and ~onstructive one.
Our writer invites us to look
at the "local scene" and then of
fers a few heart-rending ac
counts of what I presume to be
personal disappointm.ents at the
hands of certain professors.
They are familiar examples
that can be heard at the rate of
forty•per-ten-minute break on
any given day. The towel is
passed around as each member
of the group impatiently awaits
his tum to make known the cun
ning way in which a professor
got even with him for disputing
some point several weeks before.
Students who are intellectually
unquallfled for ·these pseudo
professorial groups, our writer
excuses on the grounds that they
are not only Inhibited by the
professors but are persecuted by
the public in general. ''The whole
country is looking down the vets'
throat ready to pounce on the
ungrateful whelp who is using up . . its money to go to school"
And· then, o£ course, we find
the usual references to. the "mud
of Italy," "the vermin of the
S,.outh Pacific," etc., until the
reader is ready to rush down and
purchase another war. bond. Or
pe_rhaps the reader is just fed up
with this paranoic attitude and
writes a letter to the editor.
I submit that the opinions of
the Dartmouth student, as they
appear in the June 30 issue of
"Newsweek" are substantially
correct and base my acceptance
of them on two years of observ
ing the "psychological law of
Parismony" dominating the ef
forts and activities of the stu
dents on this campus.
As the Dartmouth student cor
rectly asserts, few students are
attracted to liberal ~rts subjects
as, for example , a foreign lan
guage, history of economic
thought, astronomy, etc. It seems
that they have been admonished
as to the difficulty encountered
in mastering such a subject and
are further· advised' that no prac
tical use can be derived from such
a study. Of the resolute number
who defy these a4monitions,
roughly . 50 per cent quit, 30 per
cent might' as well not be there,
and 9 per cent consider it a waste
of time.
Now just what is responsible
for this attitude? The underlying
cause can probably be found in
the perfunctor y' type of educa
tion we were exposed to in the
past,. where learning by rote was
considered the only ·effective
method, and true intellectual cu
riosity was not fostered.
· However, as our inimitable
Professor Morgan has emphatical
ly stated, "You can't win on a
negative I" _
We can't profit by seeking out
the causes fo our plight in order
to vindicate ourselves.

Students_' Opinions Vary On
Quest~ori-~'~'Do Vets Think?"
By Clif Bennett ..
In the last issue of the Log, an editorial entitled "Do Student
Vets 'l:Qink?" was published which prompted several students
to express their views.
There are three differing schools of thought concerning the
subject. However, all agree that veterans do· think.
First, there is the Jim Alexan
der school of opi'nion, based on cerned with knowledge gained,
and grades are merely indicators
of knowledge.
The third school, the Fred War
ner, subdivides into two classes,
"materialistic thought and · "ethi
cal thought." Warner's colleagues
are 0Bill Preble and Lou Holmes.
Preble believes that vets think
mostly II)at,erialistically. Holmes
says that s·ome think materialis
tically and an equal number,
ethically- · their motives depend
ing on service experiences. Frid:lrJ, August 1, 1M7

la Oeck agrees, saying that the
vet has a more mature and ana

The opinion of Warren Chale is
that veterans must first lgok out
for themselves; therefore, their
thinking is restricted to things
yielding symbolic rewards. Rufe
Gardner asserts that students'
thinking is restricted because
the school takes an objeetive

--By Duke Faus
While leisurely sprawled in an
easy chair with a highball -in one
hand and a copy of "Life" (July
14, 1947) in the other, my eyes
fell upon what "Life" perported
to be an example of Oregon's
beautiful women, as submitted
by the "Oregonian."
The recent fire at· the "Oregon
ian" apparently caused a shuf
fling of the cheesecake and old
matron files. The dizzy feeling
in my head was either cau,sed by
gazing upon the local "beauties"
too long, or the bat9-tub gin in
my drink:
After several cups of black
coffee to calm my shattered
nerves, I decided to take 11 per
sonal survey to decide'whether or
not Oregon's fairer sex had been
grossly misconstruea. With pro
tractor, compass and slide rule
·I proceeded to Broadway and
Washington to compile geometric
figures on figures.
My firs~ endeavor was quite
successful up to a point; the point
being her address an.d phone num
ber. The next prospect-a lovely
red head-was, however, more
cooperative . I managed to get
her 'phone number, but in the
excitement of the moment neg

from an irate husband (the four

As to make-up, ninety per cent
of them looked like Indians with

would' never think of using that

Scollish Bagpipe Artist
Entertains Music Class
A bit of old Scotland invaded
the campus last week when Dun
can MacKenzie of Portland, com
plete with kilts, bagpipe, tunic,

Mrs. Frances Turrell's music ap-• preciation class in the chapel .
MacKenzie ; who learned to
play the bagpipes from an old
Scotchman in Port 1 and, ex
plained the structure of the in
strument. Before learning to use
the mouthpiece, he said, one must
study the chanter for at least a
year. This reed, which is maniptt
lated with the fingers, has only
eight ·notes, none of which are
sharps or fiats.
Dressed in his ftoya~ Stewart
tartan kilt made from seven
square yards of material, Mac
Kenzie marched back and forth
across the stage playing "The
Seventy-ninth Regiment's Fare
well "\o Gibralter." Other Scot
tish pieces offered for students'
enjoyment were "The Highland
Laddie," "My Love, She's but a
Lassie Yet" ·and "The Road to the
Isles~" a traditional Scotch fu
neral piece.
In variation, he played the
American tunes "Over· There,"
"Yankee Doodle" and the Marine
Hymn.
The music appreciation class
was able to obtain Mac_Kenzi'e's
services .through Sam Stewart,
junior li is t or y · major, who
brought him to the .campus as

Make Highest Grade Point Averages
Grade point avera1es of veterans, particularly married veter·
ans, were found to be significantly higher than those of non-veterans
in a study of grades earned by 535 Lewis and Clark students for
the fall Hllle&ter of last year. The study was mac¥ by Marilyn
Johmon, senior journalism major, for her paper in ~cholOIY
seminar under the direction of Volney E. Faw, utistant professor
of psychology •
' (Continued from Column 3)
"Yes, I'm familiar with them. Among the men students, the·
married veterans had the highest
average G. P. A., 2.67; unmarried
veterans were second with an av
erage of 2.59, and non-veterans
third with 2.47.
The average G. P. A. of the 18
women veterans studied was
found to be 2.80, and that of the
average woman non-veteran 2.69. . In fact, I kno_w them well enough
so they're completely frank with
me. They oppose European re
cpnstruction because communism
thrives on hunger.''
Most of these differences in
average G. P. A.'s were proved
to be , too slight to have much
significance, but the difference
between the married men vet
erans and the unmarried men
non-veterans did show consider
able significance. This would in
dicate that marriage and servtce
experience are desirable factors
in making a high grade point av
erage. Of the 397 men included
in the study, 242 were unmarried
veterans, 99 married veterans and
65 non-veterans. 'The average age
of the married vet is 25, the av
erage single vet is 23 and the
average ,non-vet is 21.
Although the differences found
in gredes among veterans . and
non-veterans were not cqnclu
sive, results of the study indicate
that in general lhe factors of be
ing a veteran, being married and
older all operate toward im·
proving one's ability to ·attam
a high,er grade J)oint average
than do the opposi,te factors.

In principle, the LC fioor is a replica of the removable sur

In fact, according to Cliff Miller, who is foreman on the -gymna.tiium
construction job,· the architect who made the LC plans had copied
the Washington blue prints to the letter. In the LC gym the top
part of he fioor is composed of 4 by 8 foot section of plywood

the 2 by 4's are laid on a dirt fioor instead of stringers, and the
four by eight sectiohs are bolted to the strips so that they may .. be
removed conveniently. . . ·.
"Floating fioor" is the correct terminology for this type, siiice
the fioor as aforementioned is merely laid on the. supports.
By not having the floor bolted to the supports, there is an
avoidance of what is called "dead spots" on the floor. In this type
of surface there is also a great deal of "give" which will tend to
save the legs of the athletes from weariness and tightening.
Visiting basketball teams to LC this winter may find some
difficulty in getting accustomed to this "floating _ flo~r" .. A basketball
when bouncing on this court does not have the mclmat10n to bounc_e
as high as it ordinarily would on other types. Since the bas~etball
schedule calls for LC to play its opponents on a o;ne game home
and home basis, the visitors may ,po81lbly be thrown off their
game for one night. ·

with what I myself termed left wing tendencies. I still consider
myself· a liberal, but if you don't mind I'll remove the left wing tag.
I'm convinced that the communist brand of corruption would
make even some of our ~erican

ideal in true democracy . It's a re

One-Sided Freedom of Press
Yesterday a young Czech, apol
ogizing· for an insult which had
ap_Peared in a Czech student pub
lication directed at Algiers, said
that it could not be avoided in a
country that had a free press.
In a sense his statement was true.
The press· is essentially free,. l;mt
no pul:ilica:tiol:l could have pu}>-.

S. S. R. As -a matter of fact mild
criticism of Russia cannot be
printed. It's a one-sided freedom.
These students are little inter
ested in sports· or in student life
in general. Their great interest
is the political effect of the stu
dent. They spend much time in
preparing resolutions calling upon
American students to protest the
'imperialist actions of their gov
ernment.' I'm not too proud of
some of my government's policies

would be a review of the activities of the 1947

The following is not wriU~ aa an excuse tor
delay, in distribution . It is rather a statement of
fact for the inability .of the editor and his staff to
meet the deadline set for distributiOJ;I .
The primary fault lay in th.e organization of the
book .The journalism department of the college
had no active head last year, and, alii 11 ~esult, MiiiB
Adena Joy graciously accepted the position of
advisor for the year's publication. Her work. for
Bill W"lllon the year was in the speech department , and she
was unable to give the necessary time and advice on questions and
policy that arose throughout the year. The secondary reason was the
inability of the editor to select people who would fulfill the respon
sibilities they accepted as staff members .

The Voyageur staff decided that
they could finance the book by

' A ·Salute to Senator Morse
The Congress-approved Senator Morse bill to rais'e the
amount of subsistence for veterans can be considered the
best piece of legislation to come out of Washington this year
for the many student veterans here, who despite the shackl
ing effect of a rising cost of living are doggedly struggling
up the path of higher educatjon in hope that it will lead to
a better way of life.
The bill allows for the cashing of terminal leave bonds
after September 1st, which will make it possible to those
who need the ready cash for school to enter this fall, or
those who have graduated to go into business without' going
further into debt, and raises subsistence payments of single
veterans to $75, married veterans to $105; and married vet
erans with children to $120 per montq.
. This ·form of encouragement came at a· crucial time
when hard-pressed student veterans could not see how to
make ends meet and still carry a full academic load. That ·
they ·h~ve proven themselves worthy of such a nati~nal in
vestment is shown by their excellent record here as active
and straight-thinking participants in the whole campus life.
To see that a policy maker of such a calibre as our Sen
ator from Oregon still believes that a well-educated youth
is the real wealth of a nation is reassurin~ in these rugged
days when optimistic action is a precious thing. 1

midnight "bull sessions" in the I • dorm. .
• I have been a rather diffident
participant in a few of these
scholarly sessions, but as yet have
been unable to make any practi
cal application of -the amazing
knowledge imparted the1·e, by
reason of the mores of the ;lay
which militate against a tamily
man taking an · interest in the
contours of co-eds. However, it
is not to be inferred that such
a pastime is anything but a. pleas
ant and ~onstructive one.
Our writer invites us to look
at the "local scene" and then of
fers a few heart-rending ac
counts of what I presume to be
personal disappointm.ents at the
hands of certain professors.
They are familiar examples
that can be heard at the rate of
forty•per-ten-minute break on
any given day. The towel is
passed around as each member
of the group impatiently awaits
his tum to make known the cun
ning way in which a professor
got even with him for disputing
some point several weeks before.
Students who are intellectually
unquallfled for ·these pseudo
professorial groups, our writer
excuses on the grounds that they
are not only Inhibited by the
professors but are persecuted by
the public in general. ''The whole
country is looking down the vets'
throat ready to pounce on the
ungrateful whelp who is using up . . its money to go to school"
And· then, o£ course, we find
the usual references to. the "mud
of Italy," "the vermin of the
S,.outh Pacific," etc., until the
reader is ready to rush down and
purchase another war. bond. Or
pe_rhaps the reader is just fed up
with this paranoic attitude and
writes a letter to the editor.
I submit that the opinions of
the Dartmouth student, as they
appear in the June 30 issue of
"Newsweek" are substantially
correct and base my acceptance
of them on two years of observ
ing the "psychological law of
Parismony" dominating the ef
forts and activities of the stu
dents on this campus.
As the Dartmouth student cor
rectly asserts, few students are
attracted to liberal ~rts subjects
as, for example , a foreign lan
guage, history of economic
thought, astronomy, etc. It seems
that they have been admonished
as to the difficulty encountered
in mastering such a subject and
are further· advised' that no prac
tical use can be derived from such
a study. Of the resolute number
who defy these a4monitions,
roughly . 50 per cent quit, 30 per
cent might' as well not be there,
and 9 per cent consider it a waste
of time.
Now just what is responsible
for this attitude? The underlying
cause can probably be found in
the perfunctor y' type of educa
tion we were exposed to in the
past,. where learning by rote was
considered the only ·effective
method, and true intellectual cu
riosity was not fostered.

Students_' Opinions Vary On
Quest~ori-~'~'Do Vets Think?"
By Clif Bennett ..
In the last issue of the Log, an editorial entitled "Do Student
Vets 'l:Qink?" was published which prompted several students
to express their views.
There are three differing schools of thought concerning the
subject. However, all agree that veterans do· think.
First, there is the Jim Alexan
der school of opi'nion, based on cerned with knowledge gained,
and grades are merely indicators
of knowledge.
The third school, the Fred War
ner, subdivides into two classes,
"materialistic thought and · "ethi
cal thought." Warner's colleagues
are 0Bill Preble and Lou Holmes.
Preble believes that vets think
mostly II)at,erialistically. Holmes
says that s·ome think materialis
tically and an equal number,
ethically- · their motives depend
ing on service experiences. Frid:lrJ, August 1, 1M7

vet has a more mature and ana

The opinion of Warren Chale is
that veterans must first lgok out

--By Duke Faus
While leisurely sprawled in an
easy chair with a highball -in one
hand and a copy of "Life" (July
14, 1947) in the other, my eyes
fell upon what "Life" perported
to be an example of Oregon's
beautiful women, as submitted
by the "Oregonian."
The recent fire at· the "Oregon

fling of the cheesecake and old
matron files. The dizzy feeling
in my head was either cau,sed by
gazing upon the local "beauties"
too long, or the bat9-tub gin in
my drink:
After several cups of black
coffee to calm my shattered
nerves, I decided to take 11 per
sonal survey to decide'whether or
not Oregon's fairer sex had been
grossly misconstruea. With pro
tractor, compass and slide rule
·I proceeded to Broadway and
Washington to compile geometric
figures on figures.
My firs~ endeavor was quite
successful up to a point; the point
being her address an.d phone num
ber. The next prospect-a lovely
red head-was, however, more
cooperative . I managed to get
her 'phone number, but in the
excitement of the moment neg

As to make-up, ninety per cent
of them looked like Indians with

Scollish Bagpipe Artist
Entertains Music Class
A bit of old Scotland invaded
the campus last week when Dun
can MacKenzie of Portland, com
plete with kilts, bagpipe, tunic,

Mrs. Frances Turrell's music ap-• preciation class in the chapel .
MacKenzie ; who learned to
play the bagpipes from an old
Scotchman in Port 1 and, ex
plained the structure of the in
strument. Before learning to use
the mouthpiece, he said, one must
study the chanter for at least a
year. This reed, which is maniptt
lated with the fingers, has only
eight ·notes, none of which are
sharps or fiats.
Dressed in his ftoya~ Stewart
tartan kilt made from seven
square yards of material, Mac
Kenzie marched back and forth
across the stage playing "The
Seventy-ninth Regiment's Fare
well "\o Gibralter." Other Scot
tish pieces offered for students'
enjoyment were "The Highland
Laddie," "My Love, She's but a
Lassie Yet" ·and "The Road to the
Isles~" a traditional Scotch fu
neral piece.
In variation, he played the
American tunes "Over· There,"
"Yankee Doodle" and the Marine
Hymn.
The music appreciation class
was able to obtain Mac_Kenzi'e's
services .through Sam Stewart,
junior li is t or y · major, who
brought him to the .campus as
part of his term project.

Make Highest Grade Point Averages
Grade point avera1es of veterans, particularly married veter·
ans, were found to be significantly higher than those of non-veterans
in a study of grades earned by 535 Lewis and Clark students for
the fall Hllle&ter of last year. The study was mac¥ by Marilyn
Johmon, senior journalism major, for her paper in ~cholOIY
seminar under the direction of Volney E. Faw, utistant professor
of psychology •
' (Continued from Column 3)
"Yes, I'm familiar with them. Among the men students, the·
married veterans had the highest
average G. P. A., 2.67; unmarried
veterans were second with an av
erage of 2.59, and non-veterans
third with 2.47.
The average G. P. A. of the 18
women veterans studied was
found to be 2.80, and that of the
average woman non-veteran 2.69. . In fact, I kno_w them well enough
so they're completely frank with
me. They oppose European re
cpnstruction because communism
thrives on hunger.''
Most of these differences in
average G. P. A.'s were proved
to be , too slight to have much
significance, but the difference
between the married men vet
erans and the unmarried men
non-veterans did show consider
able significance. This would in
dicate that marriage and servtce
experience are desirable factors
in making a high grade point av
erage. Of the 397 men included
in the study, 242 were unmarried
veterans, 99 married veterans and
65 non-veterans. 'The average age
of the married vet is 25, the av
erage single vet is 23 and the
average ,non-vet is 21.
Although the differences found
in gredes among veterans . and
non-veterans were not cqnclu
sive, results of the study indicate
that in general lhe factors of be
ing a veteran, being married and
older all operate toward im·
proving one's ability to ·attam
a high,er grade J)oint average
than do the opposi,te factors.

glanced out his window which

of our talk consisted of how much

Summer· Sp.orts Slants New-Gym ladividaal Toameys End·
By DEAH SEMPERT Ready-for Use For Summer .Sports Season
Comment has been going rampant lately about the playing fioor
of LC's new gymnasium.
In principle, the LC fioor is a replica of the removable sur
face which is in use at the University of Washington pavilliOn.
In fact, according to Cliff Miller, who is foreman on the -gymna.tiium
construction job,· the architect who made the LC plans had copied
the Washington blue prints to the letter. In the LC gym the top
part of he fioor is composed of 4 by 8 foot section of plywood
whch are bolted to thin strips to make the sections a unified
whole. This completed section is laid (not bolted) on 2 by 4's, which
In turn, are bolted to stringers which run the width and length of
the gym.
Washington has two differences from this arrangement in that
the 2 by 4's are laid on a dirt fioor instead of stringers, and the
four by eight sectiohs are bolted to the strips so that they may .. be
removed conveniently. . . ·.
"Floating fioor" is the correct terminology for this type, siiice
the fioor as aforementioned is merely laid on the. supports.
By not having the floor bolted to the supports, there is an
avoidance of what is called "dead spots" on the floor. In this type
of surface there is also a great deal of "give" which will tend to
save the legs of the athletes from weariness and tightening.
Visiting basketball teams to LC this winter may find some
difficulty in getting accustomed to this "floating _ flo~r" .. A basketball
when bouncing on this court does not have the mclmat10n to bounc_e
as high as it ordinarily would on other types. Since the bas~etball
schedule calls for LC to play its opponents on a o;ne game home
and home basis, the visitors may ,po81lbly be thrown off their
game for one night. ·

its politics, I would ha.ve laughed long and loud. I came over her-e
with what I myself termed left wing tendencies. I still consider
myself· a liberal, but if you don't mind I'll remove the left wing tag.
I'm convinced that the communist brand of corruption would
make even some of our ~erican

ideal in true democracy . It's a re
ligion of fear and poverty and it's
going great guns amo~ the peo

One-Sided Freedom of Press
Yesterday a young Czech, apol
ogizing· for an insult which had
ap_Peared in a Czech student pub
lication directed at Algiers, said
that it could not be avoided in a
country that had a free press.
In a sense his statement was true.
The press· is essentially free,. l;mt

lished a similar insult. to the U.
S. S. R. As -a matter of fact mild
criticism of Russia cannot be
printed. It's a one-sided freedom.
These students are little inter
ested in sports· or in student life
in general. Their great interest
is the political effect of the stu
dent. They spend much time in
preparing resolutions calling upon
American students to protest the
'imperialist actions of their gov
ernment.' I'm not too proud of
some of my government's policies
either,-but I'm surprised . to find

~arly Autumn Distribution -Promisea
In the last issue of the Pioneer Log, it was promised that there'
would be a review of the activities of the 1947

body.
The following is not wriU~ aa an excuse tor
delay, in distribution . It is rather a statement of
fact for the inability .of the editor and his staff to
meet the deadline set for distributiOJ;I .
The primary fault lay in th.e organization of the
book .The journalism department of the college
had no active head last year, and, alii 11 ~esult, MiiiB
Adena Joy graciously accepted the position of
advisor for the year's publication. Her work. for
Bill W"lllon the year was in the speech department , and she
was unable to give the necessary time and advice on questions and
policy that arose throughout the year. The secondary reason was the
inability of the editor to select people who would fulfill the respon
sibilities they accepted as staff members .
At the beginning of the year, ---------- ---
the student council found that If orma Wallace Made

The Voyageur staff decided that
they could finance the book by
