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. ·

Seating accommodations for 500

.. PRAGUE, August 5-If someone had told me only a . month
ago that I would feel the way I do about Europe, its problems and
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
city governments look like the
ideal in true democracy . It's a re
ligion of fear and poverty and it's
going great guns amo~ the peo

arguments other than dogma, and
dogma passes into limbo when
power comes into the picture.

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}>-.
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
that the Soviet Union is an abused Group Leader Program

group leaders have been writing

~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

student funds for sports in order Social Commissioner
to carry on a successful first sea

The Voyageur staff decided that
they could finance the book by

New Frosh and the Vet
At a time when the veteran seems to dominate the edu
cational scene, we wish to make a special welcome to you
high school graduates who are about to experience your first
year of college life.
Not unlike all colleges in the United States, our student
body is made up of an age group extending anywhere from
16 to 30 and over. No "type" exists here for Lewis and
Clark, aside from its reputation for beauty and growth, is
unique in many respects. Coming to the college this fall
are experienced teachers who bring with them many new
ideas and methods of teaching. Lewis and Clark doesn't use
the crutch of pre-war college patterns to fall back upon.
You will find that the vet has consigned his experiences
of the war to the past, and the luster of the "big wheel"
and the "BMOC" is dim. The vet regards himself as a vic
tim of circumstance and any talk of his isolation from other
students is nothing more than that. Many are married, have
children, so it is only natural that they will not think and
act as you do. However, you-the 18-year-old-will mold
the traditions and attitudes that will persist here long after
he is gone.
The change in college environment from the popularly
accepted attitude should be no surprise to you. Rest assured
that your first year here will be a memora~le one. filled
with many new interests-both academic and social.
Welcome from the Dean
I'm most happy to extend an official, as well as a per
sonal, welcome to each of 300 new students and 700 former
students for Lewis and Clark college.
This is the sixth year on our beautiful campus. You will
find a faculty of seventy and a thousand other eager students
as enthusiastic as yourself to make this a banner year.
Almost every depa~tment of the college is offering new
courses and expanded curricula. Five buildings, not on the
campus when college opened last year, will be in full use.
Our football team will be in conference for the first time
this fall and the other sports will be in their second year.
Debate and speech will be expanded. There will be four or
five full dramatic productions with numerous one-act plays
and short skits. In addition to our well developed music
activities there will be added a band and men's glee club.
The completion of the gymnasium, Little Theatre, and
cafeteria has provided space for the expansion of ~any
classes and college activities. The new Business Administra
tion building now being re-erected will provide added class
room and office facilities for faculty members and student
body officers. These new buildings will relieve congestion
and ptovide comfortable space for our expanded curriculum,
faculty ·and student body.
You may look forward with aspiration and confidence
that 1947-1948 at Lewis and Clark college will be a year
when friendships will be broadened and deepened, intellec
tual enthusiasm quickened and emotional and social compe
tance approached. Yes, Lewis and Clark college extends a
most cordial welcome to all of you.

At Well-~nown Women's Col~ege

By Charles Myers
"I think Lewis and Clark has
one of the prettiest campuses I've
ever seen," said Carmen Ogden,
special summer .student, who
has viewed Harvard, West Poini,
Massachusetts Institute of Tech
nology and has attended Welles
ley college for the last three
years.
She said Wellesley's campus
covers 400 acres of land, consist
ing of rolling green grass, wood
ed areas and a lake. The president
of the college is Mildred McMee
Horton, former Captain of the
Waves, and the student body i•
composed of 1500 women.
Carmen received a scholarship
to Wellesley , after graduating
from Jefferson high school in
1944. Her violin talent won her
a state prize while at Jefferson, and at Wellesley she is personal
ly instructed by Richard .Burgin;
an associate conductor of Boston's
symphony orchestra. She calls
violin-playing "My hobby" and
devotes most of her time to his
tory, her major at Wellesley.
When asked about the scarcity
of manpower at Wellesley, she
replied, "There's plenty of ac
tivity-Harvard and Massachu
setts Institute of Technology
aren't far away. Besides the iso
lation is very helpful for study."
Sororities are not allowed on
Wellesley campus but interest so
cieties are encouraged. Carmen
belongs to the Inter-Varsity
Christian F'ellowship there.
A special student here this
summer, she plans to return to
Wellesley in the fall as a senior.
Her ultimate interest is Biblical
archeology.
THE BARK-OF THE L·OG
Cigarette Machines
On CampWJ?
To the Editor:
During the last year Lewis and
Clark has advanced in both edu
cational and recreational fields,
but certain inadequacies still
exist.
Number one on the list of ob
jectives which should be accom
plished in. order to place this col
lege within the realm of the more
progressive institu_tes of higher
learning, is the sale of cigarettes
on campus. The prohibition ·of
cigarette macl}ines on the school
grounds merely constitutes an un
necessary inconvenience causing
the "bumming" of cigarettes by
students who lack forethought.
The incongruous location of our
campus makes the purchasing of
tobacco virtually impossible to
those students who have no cars.
Our bookstore ,i:to'another blotch
on progressive education. Sup
plies 11re sadly lacking in many
fields such as paper onlr being
sold in one size, and the variety
of books on sale is less extensive
than that of a country high
school. After observing the mod
ern texts and late literary works
being sold at Reed's book store
this becomes even more manifest.
If we ~re to conti.riue our ex
pansion, let us do it in all direc
tions.·
Duke Faus.
Who's going to keep minon from using the machines? Ours is
one of the few colleges in Oregon
which permi1s· smoking on the
campus, so why not acquire a lit
tle "forethought"?-.Ed.
N9 Raise for· Vets
To the Editor:
There is a harsh new wind
blowing across this campus. It
smells of politics and carrie as a
direct result of the blowhard 80th
·congress 'refusal to uphold their
congressional duties as specified
in Section 8, U. S. Constitution,
". . . to provide for the general
welfare."
That there was inaction on vital
issues concerning college students
is shown by the shelving of legis
lation to raise allotments so des
perately needed by _student vet
erans to keep pace with the rising
cost of living and still maintain
a full academic load unfettered
by debl ·
This was the bill so idealistical
ly proclaimed in last issue's edi
torial which energetically patted
our Congress on the back mistak
enly in advance for seeing fit to
invest in an eager-beaver student
veteran, who came to this and
other institutions of higher learn
ing throughout our nation, in hope
that it will promote a better way
of life for a better world. An er
ror of this sort will not happen
again.

subscriptions, the sales campaign
had to be carried out over a two
month period because students
failed to buy the books at mass
sales. They had to be met individ
ually in an office set up in the
old snack bar.
Many difficulties were faced in
decisions on which pictures we
were able to take. It was found
that it was impossible to take
such pictures as "the freshman
class." We not only lacked funds
and other equipment necessary
for individual pictures but found
there was no place · suita,ble to
take a group shot of 400 people.
. It was decided that pictures of ' all organizations on the campus
would include most of the stu
den~. ~-fee of $10 w~s charged
each group and they met this ob
ligation with splendid coopera
tion. The next step was naming
the people in the group pictures
and a statement of purptOse and
activities for the year was to be
included with them. In a meeting
called for this purpose, three

' . With a fall enrollment of over
a thousand , students and a large
wahing list, one can't help but
turn back the pages of time to a
school for small children i:n Al
bany. in the 1860's. The Presby
terian Board . of Christian Edu
cation sent a Dr. Gary to Albany
to see Mr. Wil'tiam-Montieth, who
owned the school for small chil
dren. Land for the college ·was
donated by .a brother of "profes-'
sor" Montieth, and Lewis and
Clark' was established as Albany
college under the auspices of the
Presbyterian . church in 1867 and
commenced classes in September
of that year. The inaugural ad
dress was given by President ,
William Montieth on October 22, -
1867:
The first issue of "Our College
Missive," 1875, listed such courses
as Greek, Latin, Mental Philos
ophy, Butler's Analogy (a domes
tic course, no doubt), McCorsh's
Institutions and Moral Science.
With, the inclusion of such courses
as Advanced Quantitative Analy
sis and Astrophysics in the ·pres
ent curiculum , the tremendous
strides 'Which have been made in
the educational field become even
more manifest.
Commencement exercises have
been vastly innovated throughout
the years, also. The second com
mencement exercises had such
features as "The Realm of Mind
-and Matter" and "Proof Armor
for the Battle of Life."
In those days one would find no
sororities and fraternities but lit
erary societies , which were called
Sigma Phi, Erodelhians, Phileze
tians and Aelioans. There were
no dormitories in those days, but
an eating club for men was estab
lished by Clara Perry, and the
women lived in private homes. The corner stone which may
be seen in front of the main en
trance of the 'Women's building
was laid at Albany in 1892 .wh~n
their new building was COJilplet
ed.
Way back in 1902 Albany col
lege won the· football champion
ship of the Collegiate A,ssocia
tion league of Oregon for the sec
ond time by defeating Portland
Academy (34-0), M on m o u t h
(15-6), Willamette (27-0), Ashland
(30-0), and fought to a scoreless
tie with the University of Oregon.
About 70 years ago the women
g r a d u a t e s were majestically
gowned in long-sleeved, high
necked formal dresses. It was
then the custom to present flow
ers to the "pin up" girls. During
the Spijnish-Americlm war, many
college men had left for the serv
ice, and on graduation day the
chair of one of the members of
the class who had left for the
Philippines was drap.ed with a
flag. In place of a commence
ment speaker, a valedictory was
given in Latin. The degrees were
also conferred in Latin.
' In 1910 the custom was for
all the members of the graduat
ing class to give an oration in
stead of having a main speaker.
This was followed by the annual
alumni breakfast. Other senior
activities included a dinner given
by the President for the members
of the class and a commencement
concert.
At present, it is the tradition for
the faculty to give the seniors a
breakfast. Caps and gowns are
worn at commencement which is
held on the east terrace of the
Women's building .
After 71 years -at Albany, the
college was moved in 1938 to
Portland where the classes were
• held in the Temple Beth Israel
Sunday school building on 12th
and Main streets. The college li
brary was in the basement of the
. Nazarene church and the gym
nasium facilities were provided
in the Turnverine, which is now
the Civic Recreation Center.,
Our present campus was pur
chased in June, 1.942, through
the generosity of the former own
er Lloyd Frank, and t.he in~iative
1_1nd foresight of Dr. Odell.
It was a memorable day when
classes began on the new campus.
The smell of fresh paint, the ham
mering of carpenters, the appear
ance of knowing upperclassmen
and the bewildered freshmen all
added to the general confusion.
There was truly great mental and
physical activity on the new
campus. These conditions will be
even more apparent this fall with
the new construction program be
ing pushed into high gear.
The first chapel was held on
the lawn with the terrace serving
as a platform. br. Odell, the first
speaker, welcomed the students
and spoke with enthusiasm about
the future of this college. It must
have been inspirational worship
ping out-of-doors with Mt. Hood
in view. The chapel was then a
tool shed open on one side and
joined by a 20-car garage, which
now contains class rooms.
During the past scholastic year
construction and classes have
worked hand-in-hand with an oc
casional lecture being interrupt
ed by a pneumatic hammer, and
in the ensuing year the same con
ditions are expected until the
completion of the construction
program . I shall end this by coin
ing and crudely innovating a Mil·
tonian phrase:· To learn is worth
ambition, though in turmoil. a verbal agreement with the
print%ng firm of James, Kearns
and I Abbott and received the
books when promised, no further
contract -was made. Here was a
fault of the editor which we hope
will be corrected in the future.
The printers, however, did a
landslide business in June and ...
·July and promises were broken,
and other publications went to
press whiie the Voyageur spent
a month and a halt in a desk
f drawer. Pressure was placed on
the_ P.rinter. and the Voyageur is
now receiving top prioriiy and
will be distributed as soon as hu
manly possible.
Many difficulties will be cor
rected in next year's publication .
Through the efforts of this year's
editor, the expense of the Voy
ageur will be met in the purchase
of the student body card. This will
serve a two-fold purpose; every
one who has a student body card
will receive a Voyageur . With the
expected publication of 1,000
copies, a bigger' and better book
is eminent. Also two months of
valuable time spent in sales this
year can be used to advantage in
?rganization.

College Training Officer Whipple SaYs
Vet Serious, ,. Grateful for Opportunity .
The majority of the student veterans regard their school work
very seriously, according to Robert R. Whipple, college training of
ficer for the Veterans administration.
Whipple said that most veterans are grateful for their opportuni
ties, and not abuse their G. I. Bill privileges. He feelS that it is
possible that veterans will become better citizens than non-veterans.
"Those who fought for ideals they hold sacred realize the meaning
of those ideals more than those who did not fight."
This summer the Veterans ad··
ministration requested all pro-.
fessors to keep a record of vet-r erans' absences. Whipple ex:-
plained that this request is .not
based on the fact that the veteran
is skipping too many classes, but
on the fact that subsisitence is
paid only for time spent in at
tending school o~ for periods of
authorized leave. Miss . Arnold Returns

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. ·

.. PRAGUE, August 5-If someone had told me only a . month
ago that I would feel the way I do about Europe, its problems and
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
city governments look like the
ideal in true democracy . It's a re
ligion of fear and poverty and it's
going great guns amo~ the peo
ple who have a chance ·of scrap

arguments other than dogma, and
dogma passes into limbo when
power comes into the picture.

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}>-.
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
that the Soviet Union is an abused Group Leader Program

~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

student funds for sports in order Social Commissioner

they could finance the book by

New Frosh and the Vet
At a time when the veteran seems to dominate the edu
cational scene, we wish to make a special welcome to you
high school graduates who are about to experience your first
year of college life.
Not unlike all colleges in the United States, our student
body is made up of an age group extending anywhere from
16 to 30 and over. No "type" exists here for Lewis and
Clark, aside from its reputation for beauty and growth, is
unique in many respects. Coming to the college this fall
are experienced teachers who bring with them many new
ideas and methods of teaching. Lewis and Clark doesn't use
the crutch of pre-war college patterns to fall back upon.
You will find that the vet has consigned his experiences
of the war to the past, and the luster of the "big wheel"
and the "BMOC" is dim. The vet regards himself as a vic
tim of circumstance and any talk of his isolation from other
students is nothing more than that. Many are married, have
children, so it is only natural that they will not think and
act as you do. However, you-the 18-year-old-will mold
the traditions and attitudes that will persist here long after
he is gone.
The change in college environment from the popularly
accepted attitude should be no surprise to you. Rest assured
that your first year here will be a memora~le one. filled
with many new interests-both academic and social.
Welcome from the Dean
I'm most happy to extend an official, as well as a per
sonal, welcome to each of 300 new students and 700 former
students for Lewis and Clark college.
This is the sixth year on our beautiful campus. You will
find a faculty of seventy and a thousand other eager students
as enthusiastic as yourself to make this a banner year.
Almost every depa~tment of the college is offering new
courses and expanded curricula. Five buildings, not on the
campus when college opened last year, will be in full use.
Our football team will be in conference for the first time
this fall and the other sports will be in their second year.
Debate and speech will be expanded. There will be four or
five full dramatic productions with numerous one-act plays
and short skits. In addition to our well developed music
activities there will be added a band and men's glee club.
The completion of the gymnasium, Little Theatre, and
cafeteria has provided space for the expansion of ~any
classes and college activities. The new Business Administra
tion building now being re-erected will provide added class
room and office facilities for faculty members and student
body officers. These new buildings will relieve congestion
and ptovide comfortable space for our expanded curriculum,
faculty ·and student body.
You may look forward with aspiration and confidence
that 1947-1948 at Lewis and Clark college will be a year
when friendships will be broadened and deepened, intellec
tual enthusiasm quickened and emotional and social compe
tance approached. Yes, Lewis and Clark college extends a
most cordial welcome to all of you.

At Well-~nown Women's Col~ege

By Charles Myers
"I think Lewis and Clark has
one of the prettiest campuses I've
ever seen," said Carmen Ogden,
special summer .student, who
has viewed Harvard, West Poini,
Massachusetts Institute of Tech
nology and has attended Welles
ley college for the last three
years.
She said Wellesley's campus
covers 400 acres of land, consist
ing of rolling green grass, wood
ed areas and a lake. The president
of the college is Mildred McMee
Horton, former Captain of the
Waves, and the student body i•
composed of 1500 women.
Carmen received a scholarship
to Wellesley , after graduating
from Jefferson high school in
1944. Her violin talent won her
a state prize while at Jefferson, and at Wellesley she is personal
ly instructed by Richard .Burgin;
an associate conductor of Boston's
symphony orchestra. She calls
violin-playing "My hobby" and
devotes most of her time to his
tory, her major at Wellesley.
When asked about the scarcity
of manpower at Wellesley, she
replied, "There's plenty of ac
tivity-Harvard and Massachu
setts Institute of Technology
aren't far away. Besides the iso
lation is very helpful for study."
Sororities are not allowed on
Wellesley campus but interest so
cieties are encouraged. Carmen
belongs to the Inter-Varsity
Christian F'ellowship there.
A special student here this
summer, she plans to return to
Wellesley in the fall as a senior.
Her ultimate interest is Biblical
archeology.
THE BARK-OF THE L·OG
Cigarette Machines
On CampWJ?
To the Editor:
During the last year Lewis and
Clark has advanced in both edu
cational and recreational fields,
but certain inadequacies still
exist.
Number one on the list of ob
jectives which should be accom
plished in. order to place this col
lege within the realm of the more
progressive institu_tes of higher
learning, is the sale of cigarettes
on campus. The prohibition ·of
cigarette macl}ines on the school
grounds merely constitutes an un
necessary inconvenience causing
the "bumming" of cigarettes by
students who lack forethought.
The incongruous location of our
campus makes the purchasing of
tobacco virtually impossible to
those students who have no cars.
Our bookstore ,i:to'another blotch
on progressive education. Sup
plies 11re sadly lacking in many
fields such as paper onlr being
sold in one size, and the variety
of books on sale is less extensive
than that of a country high
school. After observing the mod
ern texts and late literary works
being sold at Reed's book store
this becomes even more manifest.
If we ~re to conti.riue our ex
pansion, let us do it in all direc
tions.·
Duke Faus.
Who's going to keep minon from using the machines? Ours is
one of the few colleges in Oregon
which permi1s· smoking on the
campus, so why not acquire a lit
tle "forethought"?-.Ed.
N9 Raise for· Vets
To the Editor:
There is a harsh new wind
blowing across this campus. It
smells of politics and carrie as a
direct result of the blowhard 80th
·congress 'refusal to uphold their
congressional duties as specified
in Section 8, U. S. Constitution,
". . . to provide for the general
welfare."
That there was inaction on vital
issues concerning college students
is shown by the shelving of legis
lation to raise allotments so des
perately needed by _student vet
erans to keep pace with the rising
cost of living and still maintain
a full academic load unfettered
by debl ·
This was the bill so idealistical
ly proclaimed in last issue's edi
torial which energetically patted
our Congress on the back mistak
enly in advance for seeing fit to
invest in an eager-beaver student
veteran, who came to this and
other institutions of higher learn
ing throughout our nation, in hope
that it will promote a better way
of life for a better world. An er
ror of this sort will not happen
again.

subscriptions, the sales campaign
had to be carried out over a two
month period because students
failed to buy the books at mass
sales. They had to be met individ
ually in an office set up in the
old snack bar.
Many difficulties were faced in
decisions on which pictures we
were able to take. It was found
that it was impossible to take
such pictures as "the freshman
class." We not only lacked funds
and other equipment necessary
for individual pictures but found
there was no place · suita,ble to
take a group shot of 400 people.
. It was decided that pictures of ' all organizations on the campus
would include most of the stu
den~. ~-fee of $10 w~s charged
each group and they met this ob
ligation with splendid coopera
tion. The next step was naming
the people in the group pictures
and a statement of purptOse and
activities for the year was to be
included with them. In a meeting
called for this purpose, three

' . With a fall enrollment of over
a thousand , students and a large
wahing list, one can't help but
turn back the pages of time to a
school for small children i:n Al
bany. in the 1860's. The Presby
terian Board . of Christian Edu
cation sent a Dr. Gary to Albany
to see Mr. Wil'tiam-Montieth, who
owned the school for small chil
dren. Land for the college ·was
donated by .a brother of "profes-'
sor" Montieth, and Lewis and
Clark' was established as Albany
college under the auspices of the
Presbyterian . church in 1867 and
commenced classes in September
of that year. The inaugural ad
dress was given by President ,
William Montieth on October 22, -
1867:
The first issue of "Our College
Missive," 1875, listed such courses
as Greek, Latin, Mental Philos
ophy, Butler's Analogy (a domes
tic course, no doubt), McCorsh's
Institutions and Moral Science.
With, the inclusion of such courses
as Advanced Quantitative Analy
sis and Astrophysics in the ·pres
ent curiculum , the tremendous
strides 'Which have been made in
the educational field become even
more manifest.
Commencement exercises have
been vastly innovated throughout
the years, also. The second com
mencement exercises had such
features as "The Realm of Mind
-and Matter" and "Proof Armor
for the Battle of Life."
In those days one would find no
sororities and fraternities but lit
erary societies , which were called
Sigma Phi, Erodelhians, Phileze
tians and Aelioans. There were
no dormitories in those days, but
an eating club for men was estab
lished by Clara Perry, and the
women lived in private homes. The corner stone which may
be seen in front of the main en
trance of the 'Women's building
was laid at Albany in 1892 .wh~n
their new building was COJilplet
ed.
Way back in 1902 Albany col
lege won the· football champion
ship of the Collegiate A,ssocia
tion league of Oregon for the sec
ond time by defeating Portland
Academy (34-0), M on m o u t h
(15-6), Willamette (27-0), Ashland
(30-0), and fought to a scoreless
tie with the University of Oregon.
About 70 years ago the women
g r a d u a t e s were majestically
gowned in long-sleeved, high
necked formal dresses. It was
then the custom to present flow
ers to the "pin up" girls. During
the Spijnish-Americlm war, many
college men had left for the serv
ice, and on graduation day the
chair of one of the members of
the class who had left for the
Philippines was drap.ed with a
flag. In place of a commence
ment speaker, a valedictory was
given in Latin. The degrees were
also conferred in Latin.
' In 1910 the custom was for
all the members of the graduat
ing class to give an oration in
stead of having a main speaker.
This was followed by the annual
alumni breakfast. Other senior
activities included a dinner given
by the President for the members
of the class and a commencement
concert.
At present, it is the tradition for
the faculty to give the seniors a
breakfast. Caps and gowns are
worn at commencement which is
held on the east terrace of the
Women's building .
After 71 years -at Albany, the
college was moved in 1938 to
Portland where the classes were
• held in the Temple Beth Israel
Sunday school building on 12th
and Main streets. The college li
brary was in the basement of the
. Nazarene church and the gym
nasium facilities were provided
in the Turnverine, which is now
the Civic Recreation Center.,
Our present campus was pur
chased in June, 1.942, through
the generosity of the former own
er Lloyd Frank, and t.he in~iative
1_1nd foresight of Dr. Odell.
It was a memorable day when
classes began on the new campus.
The smell of fresh paint, the ham
mering of carpenters, the appear
ance of knowing upperclassmen
and the bewildered freshmen all
added to the general confusion.
There was truly great mental and
physical activity on the new
campus. These conditions will be
even more apparent this fall with
the new construction program be
ing pushed into high gear.
The first chapel was held on
the lawn with the terrace serving
as a platform. br. Odell, the first
speaker, welcomed the students
and spoke with enthusiasm about
the future of this college. It must
have been inspirational worship
ping out-of-doors with Mt. Hood
in view. The chapel was then a
tool shed open on one side and
joined by a 20-car garage, which
now contains class rooms.
During the past scholastic year
construction and classes have
worked hand-in-hand with an oc
casional lecture being interrupt
ed by a pneumatic hammer, and
in the ensuing year the same con
ditions are expected until the
completion of the construction
program . I shall end this by coin
ing and crudely innovating a Mil·
tonian phrase:· To learn is worth
ambition, though in turmoil. a verbal agreement with the
print%ng firm of James, Kearns
and I Abbott and received the
books when promised, no further
contract -was made. Here was a
fault of the editor which we hope
will be corrected in the future.
The printers, however, did a
landslide business in June and ...
·July and promises were broken,
and other publications went to
press whiie the Voyageur spent
a month and a halt in a desk
f drawer. Pressure was placed on
the_ P.rinter. and the Voyageur is
now receiving top prioriiy and
will be distributed as soon as hu
manly possible.
Many difficulties will be cor
rected in next year's publication .
Through the efforts of this year's
editor, the expense of the Voy
ageur will be met in the purchase
of the student body card. This will
serve a two-fold purpose; every
one who has a student body card
will receive a Voyageur . With the
expected publication of 1,000
copies, a bigger' and better book
is eminent. Also two months of
valuable time spent in sales this
year can be used to advantage in
?rganization.

College Training Officer Whipple SaYs
Vet Serious, ,. Grateful for Opportunity .
The majority of the student veterans regard their school work
very seriously, according to Robert R. Whipple, college training of
ficer for the Veterans administration.
Whipple said that most veterans are grateful for their opportuni
ties, and not abuse their G. I. Bill privileges. He feelS that it is
possible that veterans will become better citizens than non-veterans.
"Those who fought for ideals they hold sacred realize the meaning
of those ideals more than those who did not fight."
This summer the Veterans ad··
ministration requested all pro-.
fessors to keep a record of vet-r erans' absences. Whipple ex:-
plained that this request is .not
based on the fact that the veteran
is skipping too many classes, but
on the fact that subsisitence is
paid only for time spent in at
tending school o~ for periods of
authorized leave. Miss . Arnold Returns
