Drama Group
Plans Weekly
'Classic' Film
Alpha Psi Omego, national
honorary dram at i c fraternity,
opens this evening at 8:00 in the
college chapel, a winter series of
exceptionally fine European and
American films. Clair Roskam,
general chairman, announces a
weekly program of such cinema
classics as "La Belle Adventure ,"
"Scarlet Pimpern el" and "Shoe
Shine" is planned.
Business manager s Dick Paul
and Paul Metzger emphasized
that the purpose of the series is
to bring finer films to students
at reasonable prices, but if there
is a profit it will be used to add
equipment to the dramatic de­
partment. Vern Clark and Jim
Honey are in charge of publicity.
Tonight's opening feature, "Les
Miserable," starring Charles
Laughton and Frederic March, is
a dramatic Victor Hugo classic
which attacks the 18th Century
social system.
A limited number of tickets at
50 cents each may be purchased
in the book store. These will also
serve as admission to the candle­
light dance in 'the snack shack
following the feature, Joan Ston­
er, chairman, announced.
The next presentation will be
"La Belle Adventure" starring
the American favorite, Louis Jor­
dan.

men are Mazama members.
Don and his companions started
to climb about 1 a. m. Saturday.
Buscho was in the lead, Don in
the middle, and Alice bringing
up the rear as they entered the
chute.
Buscho didn't see Don slip but
heard Alice-call. Don had fallen
down the slope west of Crater

him while Alice started to the
lodge for help.

Death Takes No Holiday
Death has once again shown its great power.
Lives, whether good or bad, get no consideration from
this foe who claims his victims both young and old. It is
an extreme pity that a young person such as Don Welk
must be claimed so early in life.
This incident of a treacherous mountain looking on with
cool placidness as a climber fell, shows that life is too short
to put off pleasurable pass times and learning.
Don had presumably started on this ambition as his
life ·was taken while pursuing a sport pleasing to him. His
enrollment at this college showed he had plans for a useful
and full life in his chosen occupation.
Though one person was killed, a wave of relief is felt
that all three were not lost.
The new testament tells us that God shall wipe away
all tears and there shall be no death, sorrow, crying or
pain in days to come.
But 'till that time such regrettable accidents will occur.
F.B.C.
Cuts Cust Money
It's costing you money to go to college. Maybe it didn't
dawn on you but according to prominent campus. statis­
ticians an average course of 15 hours means each class is
worth 80 cents. That doesn't sound like much but multiply
that by the number of times you have cut, or slept through
and you may arrive at a sizable sum.
Legitimate excuses such as ill health or an accident

you are paying for it doesn't seem quite feasible. The
older veterans in college re.alize this far more than their
younger classmates.
College goes at a much faster pace than high school
and just one cut can mean a lot lost sometimes meaning
a failure in exams.
So remember what you are attending college for and
bear in mind it is later than you think.

• • • Where Free Speech Ends"
Judge Harold Medina's
charge to the Communist
trial jury which convicted
11 US Communist leaders
of conspiracy is reprinted
here from Time magazine.
It embodies an American
ideal. Judge Medina reaf­
firms our right to exercise
the priceless heritage of
free speech.
"I charge you that if the
defendants did no more
than pursue p e a c e f u 1
studies and discussions or
teaching and advocacy in
the realm of ideas you
must acquit them . . . Do
not be led astray by talk
about thought control, or
putting books on trial. No
such issues are before you
here.
"But tno one could sup­
pose nor is it the law that
any person has an absolute
and unbridled right to say
or to write and to publish
whatever he chooses under
any and all circumstances .
"Words may be the in­
struments by which crimes
are committed, as in many
familior situations; and it
has always been recog­
nized that the protection of
other interests of society
may justify reasonable re­
strictions upon speech in
furtherance of the general
welfare ....
"You mu·st be satisfied
from the evidence, beyond
a reasonable doubt that
the defendants had an in­
tent to cause the overthrow
or destruction of the gov-ernment of the United
States by force or violence
. . . as speedily as circum­
stances would permit it to­
be achieved.
". . . I charge you that
it is not the abstract doc­
trine of overthrowing or
destroying organized gov­
ernment by unlawful means
which is denounced by the
Smith Act, but the teach­
ing and advocacy of action
for the accomplishment of
that purpose, by language
reasonable and ordinarily
calculated to incite persons
to such action.
"No such intent could be
inferred from the open and
above-board teaching of a
course of principles and
implications of communism
in an American college or
university, where every­
thing is open to the scru­
tiny of parents and trus­
tees and !plyone who may
be interested .... That is
why it is so important for
you to weigh with scrupul­
ous care the testimony
concerning secret schools,
false names, devious ways,
general falsification and so
on, all alleged to be in the
setting of a huge and well­
disciplined organization,
spreading to practically
every state of the union
and all the principal cities
and industries."

Audience, Reviewer Like
'George and Margaret'
, By Fred Warner
The LC players under the di­
rection of Arthur C. Gray Wed­
nesday presented another play
r e q u 1 r 1 n g British dialogue.
Against a background of perhaps
the finest sets to date the cast
brought off a smooth performance
of the comedy, "George and Mar­
garet," although one might have
enjoyed less comic movement in
the action throughout.
In particular, Dan Campbeil
turned in a fine performance of
Claud, being well into the role
and maintaining the character
admirably. If the audience in-cljned to forget the Garth-Band­
er background of broad "a's," Dan
served to remind them of its ex­
istence.
To a lesser degree, Don English
served a comparable function in
a capable performance of Mal­
comb. Mona Perkins, who has had
a very real problem of voice, has
improved to an astonishing de­
sree in this her first major role. Robert Stoltze, assisted by , the Internatwna ongress o e

excellent. The audience laughed ·
heartily--a clue to tl;le success
of 'the play. At present, Stolze is working'
on two compositions. The first is
a symphonic poem based on the
verse, "The Bomb That Fell on
America," by Hermann Hagedorn.
The second is a trio for piano,

According to George Ennis,
dean of men, 225 have already
answered ~'yesJ'.
Despite the fact that job pla­
cements are sometimes hard,
Dean's office has placed 165 of
these applicants in steady part­
time jobs. The library and cafe­
teria combined claim one-third
of the 150 campus jobs. There is
a need, however, said Ennis, for
down-town jobs for students .
Approximately 20 odd-jobs such
as baby sitter, mowing lawns,
come into the college each week.
Anyone interested may con­

Reporter-Instructor Ron Moxness
Ranks Among LC 'Unsung Heores'
One of the least-known, but best-liked instructor s on the
campus is Ron Moxness, part-time journalism instructor and city
hall 1 eporter for The Oregonian .
Moxness , better known as "Moxie" or Ron, is in his second
year at Lewis and Clark. Class being at 8 a. m. Tuesdays and
Thursdays and having to go directly to the city hall doesn't per­
mit him to be very well known by the majority of the students,
although many may be familiar with his by-lines.
He has been on The Oregon-------------

"started in cold-just walked in terviewed Francis William s, pri­
vate secretary to Prime Minister and got the job." He was given

where he covered many murd­

Broadhurst in Eastern Oregon.
Then he became The Oregonian I
city hall.repo :·ter. He recalls
working "tremend ous overtime"
during the Vanport disaster. i
Ron was instrumental in the!
elimination of the "drunk tanks" :
of the city jail, in which many j
deaths were caused, resulting in I
the construction of an annex to
the jail. I
In his "spare tim.,," utlaet· than'

As he expresses it, "Anything
for a buck; I'll write for any
mag· that will pay me."
Previous to coming to Port­
land, Ron worked on the Ottawa
Journal and the Winnipeg Her­
ald, as a general reporter, fin­
ance reporter and for a time
was radio editor.
He was born in a logging
town in Canada on the Canada­

Ron is also an avid journal­

things "being equal, a reporter
who has college journalism will
be a better reporter than one
who hasn't," he predicted. "Also,
a very broad educational back­
·.round is needed, as schools of
journalism are becoming more

Chern Instructor Finds Russians Unbearable,
Flees Estonia With Family to United States
"The Russians will get you if you don't watch out," says Dr.
Leonid Enari, new chemistry instructor and displaced person from
Russian-occupied Estonia, bordering on the Baltic sea.
Enari arrived in this country last May with his wife, Helena,
and their seven-year-old son, Mark, aboard an army transport
plane. He fleYJ from New York, where he first landed, to Portland
to start his new teaching job at Lewis and Clark.
After being graduated from
the University of Tartu, in 1938,
Enari remained there to teach
chemistry. In 1940, just two
months after he had transferred
to the botany department, the
Russians marched into the town
and set up their communist gov­
ernment.
"Four years under the Rus-·
sians was all I could stand."
he said. "I saw 60,000 of my
countrymen arrested and sent to
Siberia and 400 of them massa­
cred in the streets of Tartu."
Enari, his wife and their then
two-year -old child, finally
escaped from Estonia and fled
through Germany to Austria.
There, at the University of Vi­
enna, he settled down and re­
sumed teaching. But, in 1945,
the Russians again moved in
and took over the country, forc­
ing the Enaris to flee again, this
time to Hunfeld , Germany, then
to Hiesbaden, which was then
under American control.
In Hiesba-den he was placed irf
a DP camp and soon became
camp commandant because of
his understanding of English.
The Enari family was moved
again, in 1947, to another camp
at Geislinger, Germany, where
they lived until arrangements
could be made to come to
America.
"I like this country and its
ideals very much," said ltiari.

ences and the present situation

I Freshman Art Major
All Around Athlete
An ex-Hillsboro high flash and all around athlete, Dick Vol!
began his college career this fall at LC as a freshman and is
majoring in commercial art, Dick stands five-feet-ten and tips the
scales at an even 160 pounds.
Voll originally came from Wisconsin, attended Hillsboro high
from 1945 to 1949 and participated in several sports and various
school activities . He earned two varsity letters in football being
quarterback for the Spartin elev­
en. In 1948 his te&m won the
league title and was runner-up
to The Dalles for the state cham­
pionship. Dick was named hon­
orary captain in his senior year
for Hillsboro and was voted to
the league all-star team.
He won two letters as a mem­
ber of the prep basketball team
in guard pasition. Last year the
Spartins won the league title and
advanced to the state tournament
at Eugene. His team gained the
sixth place berth in the finals.
He threw the javelin in his sen­
ior year for the track squad, but
doesn't claim to have broken any
league records with his tosses al­
though he came very close on sev-eral occasions.
In other high school 'actjvities,
Vol! belonged to the Senate and
lettermen's clubs. He was grad­
uated last June and during the
summer worked in a lumber
camp.
As a member of the local grid­
iJ;'on eleven, Dick alternates at
the quarterback post with rangy
Bob Pollard in engineering the
Pioneer attacks. If his studies
aren't too heavy next spring, he
intends to turn out for track. Voll

commercial artist after he com­
pletes the necessary requirements

Dance Classes Popular
Highlight of the recreation side
of department activity are the
folk dancing classes. A mixed
group of 60 students is busy
learnin the intricacies of folk
dancing.
''This type of dancing is more
difficult than modern social
dancing, but it is more enjoy­
able," Mrs. Turner states.
'I'o meet what Mrs. Turner
terms, "the great demand for

offer an expanded program. In­

President Morgan S. Odell will
represent Oregon's private in­

The committee was authorized
by the last legislature to investi­
gate the problem presented by
an expected doubling of the
state's high school grauduates by
1960. The establishment of junior
colleges is one Of the solutions
under consideration , according to
Dr. Odell.
,The committee composed of
state legislator s and educators

Ex-Charles U. Student •
Formerly a student at Charles
university · in Prague, Zikes made
his break for freedom 15 months
ago. He and two fellow students
crossed the closely guarded Czech churches.
Since coming to LC Zikes has
begun a cycle of speech-making
that has, he sa:~--s, left him sc¥tt
time for his English reading
which he declares, "gives me
some trouble."
Says LC Friendly
The thing that impresses Zikes
most about LC is the friendliness
and the social life. Czech schools
are non-resident and the social
life is distinctly separated from
the university, he points out.
Of his plans for the future
Zikes has a cautious optimism.
"If there is no war within five
years I will take U. S. citizen­
ship," lie says. But with a sad nod
of his head he qualifies , "I do not
like to make. plans. I have made
