Ole Ostracized
To the Editor:
May a new student of LC ask a
question? I'd like' to know why
a person in such a position as
the dean of men would write an
article such as the one in last
Friday's Log!' It seems to me
that he used a very juvenile
method-sarca stic or intellectual
mudslinging -to make a point.
In plain language, it doesn't be­
fit the title of a dean.
DQ... we try to compare Somer­
set Mi1Ugham with Robert Bench­
ley? What right does Ole have to
call the author of "Pioneer Pid­
dlins' " ignorant when the pur­
pose of the article is satirical, not
a serious editorial?
I don't think it gives a very
good impression of the school
when any member of the faculty
tries to be witty at the expense
of a student.

To the Mental Giants:
This is an open letter to the
cowards who haven't the 'courage
to voice their own convictions.
In last Friday's papet; I was made
the brunt of a childish prank
which gave a group of inferior students a chance to voice an
opinion of theirs without having
their names associated wit!) it.
This entire group is suffering
.from complexes ranging from ar­
rested development to introver­
tial apoplexy, The only answer I
c;an find for such behavior is an
extreme case of hero worship
(which I have always tried to
discourage). As a result of their
physical and mental shortcom­
ings they have developed terrif­
ic revolt complexes toward ath­
letes. The introverts of whom I
am speaking are Don Case, Ugh
Knutson, Dick Barton, Ken
Knudson, and George Hudson.
I would be the last person to
deride or criticize either our ath­
letes or debaters , simply because
we have an acute shortage of
both. I was shocked to find my
name affixed to the article last
week, but with a little investiga­
tion I found that the aforemen­
tioned were the cUlprits.
I would greatly appreciate it
if my "ghost writers" would' re­
frain from distracting me from
my real purpose in life; namely
research in the Economic History
of Roman :Sand Instruments. I
have no time to devote to such
trivial matters or I would certain­
ly sue for defamation of char­

composer, Villa-Lobos·, a Kabalevski sonatina
and Scriabines's nocturne for the left hand.
Mozart's well-known A Major sonata made
a strong impression through the· melodious
beauty of the composition, brought out by the
pianist's uncomplicated and sincerely musical
in~erpretation. The Brazilian work was surpris­
ingly familiar in idiom. Though the settings
did not reveal much of Lobos' individual style,
they seemed to express the spil'it of the words
as given by Miss Krasoff, who performed these
arrangements with charm and vigor. Of ~he re­
maining portion of th program the Scriabine
nocturne proved most popular with the large
audience. Six campus social fraternltles began pledging 42 men

eleven men, is pledging Robert Albrecht, Don Btolomaus,

Speaks in Chapel
On Christian Life
By Floyd Cummins
Man should build a life that
will live forever by its quality,
Dr. Robert K. Russell, Mt. Tabor
Presbyteria n church minister,
told chapel attendan ts Thursday,
March 17, at the 11 a. m. service.
Speaking on "Rendezvous with
Life," he said, "Life is like a
vapor. The gift of life is a pow­
er to share the eternal purpose of
th0 living God. Life cannot be
de~troyed because the soul will
never die. The destiny of that
soul lies in belief in the living
Christ."
Answering the question-What
is your material life?-negatively
Dr. Russell pointed out that be­
cause life is like a vapor, life is
not meaningle ss because scien ·
tifically a vapor is the most pow­
erful agency man knows and
"therefore our life can be pow­
erful in bringing others into the
Christian church."
"The ethics of the Christian
t·eligion," he said, "is that a ren­
dezvous with death has no terror
in the soul that trusts in God. If
a person does not believe in eter­
nal life, he does not because he i.;

Jerry "Crew-cut" Marks, the

have ever seen an anteater at
work you will know what I mean.
All the time he was digging in
the piles of lost items (and being
watched by another reporter), he

Dean of men George W. "Ole"
Ennis was arrested early last Sat­
urday morning in downtown
Portland on a charge of shoplift­
ing by city police.
School authorities along with
J. C. Copeland bailed the erst­
while dean out of the local bas-
tille early Monday morning so
that Ole would not miss any time
at sch'ool and thus keep the school
from getting its money's worth.
Speaking in his defense Ole
said, "I had just gone downtown
with some of the boys, namely
Al Coombs, David Fran~k, Si
Pomeroy, and Glenn Mickelson,
when the cops started picking on
me. Maybe we were a little
noisy but we weren't hurting

Student Grades
Must Reach 3.00
The question going around
the campus about why the in­
structors are "cracking down"
was answered -last week by Dr.
Morgan S. Odell.
In order that the student
body may prepare to defend
themselves here is the answer:
There are too many students'
on the campus, about 300 over
the prescribed limit according
to Dr. Odell. The popular be­
lief that LC is an easy-credit
college is erroneous according
to him. Anyone with a GPA
under 2.00 :will be dropped
from the college within one
semester if their GPA the. fol­
lowing semester is not above
3.00.

The bored of trustees have
asked the resignation of Presi­

night Saturday. Should he choose
not to resign, volunteers will be
chosen from guests at the inter-,

irregularities in parking. He has
stolen the ghinko tree.
N agrom Lledo, local campus
electrician, has been suggested
to fill the vacancy. Rumors of

Poppy Fields·Give
Students Kick
Miss Chrysanthemum is a thing
of the past.
However aspiring female can­
didates of the college may have
other titles to shoot at next year,
it was announced 'today.
According to word received
from President Morgan S. Odell,
the famous chrysanthemum gar­
dens will be uprooted and re­
placed with fields of poppies.
·The poppy fields will be cul­
tivated fot· the purpose of pro­
viding opium, which will be
doled out to unhappy, frustrated
or flunking students by the local
nurse.
"I hope, said President Odell,
that we may soon becqme as fa­
mous for our poppy fields as we
have been for chrysanthemum s./
"I want the students to get a
'kick' out of college."
Healhcliff Gives Birlh
To Six Bouncing Pups
Heathcliff, beloved campus
canine, gave birth to six pups
last week. Anyone wishing to
have one may do so by applying
at the registrar's office.
Formerly believed to be a
male, Heathy came through with
flying colors, but surprised fac­
ulty and students alike by her
achievement .
A local veterinarian, hastil)'
called to the scene, made th~
following statement, which will
be reprinted in natioMl maga­
zines next month:
The case of Heathcliff re Lewis
and Clark is definite proof 'that
American colleges need• general
sex education courses. Ignorance
and stupidity must go. We are
living in a modem age."
