This iJS the opening of the seventh year on the campus

and the erection of a student center and a speech workshop
and the development of better library facilities should make
our life on the campus much less crowded and more satis­
factory.
We welcome both old and new students to a fellowship
which si:wuld be characterized by scholarly interests, while
being marked · also by those activities and enthusiasms which
make for the growth of the whole person. No education is
complete if it produces only clever people. To intelligence
there must be added personal integrity, human concern, and
a faith in the great causes which have made OUI' heritage
rich. and strong.
In this year of international tension and national de­
bate may we be mindful of those long range judgments
and plans which will produce a nobler people and a wiser
world.
Many cordial good wishes to all of you.

Log Policy
In the July issue of Nieman Reports, published by the
Society of Nieman Fellows, is the rather surprising expose
that "canned editorials" are being used by a large number
of neWlSpapers in this .country .
Nieman Reports found that a single ·editorial was car­
ried by ·59 newspapers, with a 'circulation of 390,000. Also
only one of the 59 papers acknowleged the source of the
editorial. Moreover the report found that the 1'canned edi­
torials"· were prepared by a company in Portland , Oregon.
The danger. of such stereotyped writing which meets
the American public is very evident and such things only
serve the power interests in their own way. It is the duty
of all studuents and citizens alike to be alert to such hap­
penings.
We will attempt in the LOG this year to be very alert,
and moreover to be free from any kind of st~reotyped
thinking. This paper will heartily welcome any suggestions
which will serve this purpose. bucks we throw In the hat each subject matter fields. show, the frills of the music de-term?" From the way I observe In the first place, then, over­

days or weeks and then sit down

visited Mexico for six weeks,
lived in two private homes, had
teen-age tutors for three hours
every afternoon ; went to the
"modern" cinema and to one
"not-so-modern," and visited the
finest swimming pool in tpwn, as
well as irrigation reservoir which
does for those who haven't the
money for the other. I still don't
know very much about Mexico.
I didn't see any of the famous
group of Mexicans who think
that people from the United
States should be barred from
their country. Neither did I see
any of the supposedly vast num­
ber of communists . Perhaps a
"North-American " student does
not exactly invite such confiden­
ces from "foreigr-ers" of such
short acquaintance, but I did get
in some conversations which had
much political · tone-even the
possibly touchy subject of the
Mexican War.
Mexico is very iJ;~teresting­
even fascinating , in some ways.
It has a strange hodge-podge of architecture: seventeenth-centu­
ry buildings and those which
might have been planned by Bel­
luschi or Harold Bell Geddes. A
wealthy Mex1can in a 1948 Buick
might easily pass a middle-class
countryman in a 1934 Ford and
have a stop for a peon in white
pajamas leading a burro loaded
with maguey (a plant from which
tequila is made and which we
know .as the Century plant).
The people are people. They
are no more "greasers" or any
of the other names by which we
know them than are all North
Americans from Brooklyn, the
Pan-handle or Hollywood. Maybe
the poor are poorer than· our
poor-I don't know. I've never
seen the worst slums of New
York, Chicago nor the. parts of
the South which are described
by .Erskine Caldwell. I did see
the huts that were built of stray
pieces of tin and luJVber that
used to be under the Union aven­
ue bridge over Sullivan's gulch.
In Mexico I saw no tramps-­
or at least didn't recognize them
-but know of huts which are ·not
much worse where people live.
They are made of adobe and are
often partly carved into a cliff.
There is usually a picket-type
fence, made of mosquito twigs,
surrounding the hut which serves
to hold a few sCrawny chickens ,
goats, maybe a burro and a few
children in the yard.
(Continued Next Week)
' partment, students going to con­
ferences on your money; even
THE LOG is or shall I say, was a
waste of time and money. Now,
let me throw one over the plate.
Those who have squawked the
most are those yoa found in the
Snack Shack playing cards while
others stood up to eat or those
who cried about selections made
by student committees for cer­
tain honors but never bothered to
vote. Sure, those persons are and
always will get gyped. But be­
fore you start your beefs, why
not do a little systematic inquiry
into the matter. For example, the
college has to raise on the out­
side, approximately one hundred
dollars per year for. each student
in attendance in order to keep
the place going. Twelve hundred
students, twelve thousand bucks.
Fund Distribution
As yet, the college hasn't found
the tree that produces that kind
of fruit. On the ojther side, I
would advocate strongly a more
even distribution of funds for
events which will meet the needs •
of many students . who do not
care for a dance once a week.
How about puttlng out some
money to drau,o big-name lec­
turers for the intelligencia; how
about inviting some ·of the out­
standing artists to the campus
with something more than just a
"thank you"; how about a rental
library where one can get some
of the "must read" books? Yet
we have a set-up this year for
dances and that is about all be·
cause several meetings were held
last semester to determine what
the social affairs of the campus
should be and only those turned
out who wanted dances every
week. I take that back, Ben Pad­
ro was there but even Ben had

·As Opening Fray Saturday
By John Hoefling
Lewis and Clark's football team-1948 edition-will be un­
veiled this coming Saturday night when Coach Joe Huston's
charges tackle the Missionaries of Whitman College.
J effersdn nigh school field wilt be the scene of the first game
of thE! seasoh for the Pioneers who are rated as a darkhorse in
the forthcomi~ Northwest Conference title race. Last year Whit­
man held the locals to a 6 to 6 tie at Walla Walla.
After two weeks of intensive training on Fisher field under
the watchful eyes of Coaches Huston, Eldon Fix, and Warren
Smith, the local squad is rounding into shape. The return of 16
lettermen plus many promising newcomers has greatly strength ­
ened the chances of the Orange and Black.
The Lewis and Clark football------- -------­
ers, operating out of the T for­
mation installed by Huston last
year, promise to have a well-bal­
anced attack with both ground
and aerial offensives.
Competition for the starting
berths is so keen that Huston has
not yet listed the probable line­
up. There will be a depth though
in each position that has not
shown up in the last two years.
Heading the list of returnees
is Hal Ellmers, the Pioneers'
leading ground gain~r and scorer
the last two years, and Bob
Sweet, stellar guard for the past
two seasons.
Monahan Back
Besides Ellmers at halfback,
there are lettermen Jack Mona­
han and Bill Preble. Also show­
ing up well are Jerry Monahan,
Clarke Anderson , Francis Cox,
and speed boys M~rlin White and
Dick Walker. Others listed are
Herb Williams and Bob Misley,
savvy.
Dick Nemyre. 189, returning
letterman at this spot . . . good
kicker and throws sharp clothes­
line pass.
Ed Paul, 174, lettered at half
last year . . . will see enough
act'ion . . . good hands and spots
pass receivers well.
Left Half
Clarke Anderson. 176, trans­
ferred from Oregon State . . .
showing plenty in pre-season ...
good pass snarer.
Dick Walker, 165, former
Washington prepper who will be
Pioneer break-away. threat ...
very fast in finding the open
field.
Jack Monahan. 141, the reg­
ular jackrabb it of the outfit . ,.r
lightest gent on field and danger­
ous at all times.
Righi Half
Hal Ellmers, 146, senior, all­
conference last year . . . back for
his last year and boomed for
Little Al!-American . . . tough to
bring down.
Bill P11eble. 162, went great as
a line-backer last year ... hard
~o,ker.
Merlin White, 187, has been a
savage tackler in scrimmage . . .
very fast for big man.
Jerry Monahan. 143, brother of
Jack, and transferred . from P. U.
. . . a defensive standout.
Fullback
Cla11ence Baisch, 198, "Rube"
was a sensation at times last
year . . . runs straight up-and­
down at all times and strictly a
power runner . . . tough as they
come, ready for any rough going.
Stan Blair, 181, a terrific
ground gainer last year who
made his own holes in the oppos­
ing line . . . backs up the line in
great style.·
John Farber, 175, a good run­
ning back, but look who he has to
beat out. Larry Barbour and Jim Haskett.
At fullback there is letter win­
ner. Rue ben Baiscli, hard hitting,
fast, and one of finest fullbacks
in the conference last year. Also
at that position is Stan Blair, last
year's varsity halfback now
moved to full, and John Farber,
inexperienced but with great
possibilities.
Transfer Aids Backs
Quarterback finds three play-' ers vying for the starting posi-
tion. Dick Nemyre and Ed Paul
are returning from last year.
Both are good passers and ball
handlers. Nemyre did the punt­
ing' for LC last year. One of the
finest new prospects on the team
is Fred Wilson, transfer from the
U of 0. He is ep. excellent passer
and kicker, is smart and has the
ability to spark the team.
Bob Pollard leads the center
list, followed by former jayvee
Guy Gerber, Rans Sprinkling and
Dale Tomlinson. ·Pollard lettered
at. end in 1946 but his fine de-­
fensive work and size makes him
ideal for a T formation center.
Sprinkijng is a former all-city
center from Grant.
Wcrlker Moves to Guard
Bob Sweet heads the guard po­
sition with his all-around good
play. Backing him up are Bob
Walker, moved to guard after let­
tering at center last year;
Bob Brending , Bill Taylor, and
Norm Cramer from last year's
jayvee team. Nowcomers stand­
ing out ai:e Jim King and Bob
Post and Miles Edwards.
Lettermen Cliff Wells, Eldon
Stender, and Roger l!usband are
returning tackles. Also at tackle
are Wencil Blazek, 286 pounds,
Don Hagen, Ray Cramer, and Bill
Cox.
End positions are blessed with
good def~nsive and offensive
players. Slated to see action are
"lettermen Bill Bell, Art Bakke,
and Pete Hahn. Others figuring in
the team's plans are Lee -Miesen,
Dick Larson, Bud Hosford, and
Chuck AHen. Allen is a place-.
kick'ing specialist.

Of Cash Need
Veterans attending school or
college this fall under the G. I.
Bill are remindecl by the Veter­
ans administration to be prepared
to finance themselves f r om
45 to 60 days before they receive
their first' subsistence checks.
The VA explained that heavy
fall enrollments · and the large
volume of work in setting up nec­
essary records will cause some
delay in the issuance of first sub­
sistence checks to student-veter­
ans.
In most cases, veterans will get
their first subsistence checks
from VA on November 1. In a
few instances, however , checks
may be delayed longer. Initial
VA payments will include all
subsistence due, retroactive . to
date of enrollment. -Mu Phi Epsilon, women's mu­
sic honorary, represented by Pat
Gillam, and the Amphions, with
Otto Roth as manager will be
regular participants in t~e radio
series, as will the Drama and
Sp~i:ech departments. Warren Da­
vis, a regular on former pro­
grams, will act as announcer.
Production plans are still be­
ing made, and there is still time
for those students who wish to
obtain practical experience in
script ~riting, rndio production ,
and radio acting to contact either
Mr. Bishop or Mr. Burlingame
and help with the first program.
