P:erilous to Life and 'Limb' The dust has settled on what· many have termed "the
best student election this school has seen." 737 students
voted in the election. A new record. Great. Nietzche Finds Shack
What we'd like to know is what happened to the other
553 members of the student body. .With one of the most
promising campaign build-ups and best publicity efforts
ever put forth on the campus, even the most introverted
bookworm couldn't fail to know what was going on. And
somehow we doubt if all those 553 students are bookworms.
Bob Duncan and the other student body officers of this
year, as well as the many behind the scenes workers, are
to be praised for the fine planning and execution of the
elections. It was a good show and a close race. So close
that we wonder how many of that 553 are kicking them
selves today for not taking that extra minute to vote.

There's a new addition to the
canine family on campus-a light
brown, short-haired, compara
tively small mutt. He's (we'll call
it a he just for convenience)
tagged "Nietzsche ," after an ex
tinct German philosopher . . .
On one of his first excursions
in the shack, he was innocent
ly sprawling on the floor be
tween a couple of tables when
Bud Bradley came along and
tromped on his tail. Result: two
yelps (one from each). Bud,
overflowing with apologies,
said he thought it was a banana
peel ... Nietzsche hasn't been
seen in the shack since.

In general, recommendations
advanced .by faculty members
state that freshmen on probation
at mid-semester would be ex

indexes. An ineligibility would
be removed at mid-semester or
at the end of a semester if a
~tudent is taken off probation,
If he has raised his index to the
required class figure or if he
has the approval of the dean of
his college.
Dean H. 0. Burdick pointed
out that there were two issues
to be considered in this prob
lem of exclusion: 1. How much
time was taken from the stu
dent's academi¢ work by extra
curricular activities and how
much time does a student spend
in actual study; and 2. the fact
that through extra-curricular ac

Tomorrow's cinder meet should
mark the first' real competition
for Fix's. cfiarges this season. The
outcome, Fix stressed, shttuld be
very close-possibly not ten points
separating the two.
Close races are forecast in the
sprints, the mile and two-mile ' and in the shotput. In times 'this
season Portland thinclads have
shown an edge in all these events
but the two-mile.
The only cinch first for the Pio

Three hundred eighty-four col

the contest, in classes ranging
from dailies of any enrollment
to monthlies. Of these only 83
made All-American.
The papers entered in the
contest are rated on news values
and sources, news writing and
editing, headlines, typography,
makeup and department pages
and special features. Minimum
score for All-American rating is
950. The Log's 970 was well
above this figure.
Twice a Year Contest
The bi-yearly contest is run
by Associated Collegiate press,
through the journalism depart
ment of the University of Min

for that semester covered by
the contest are entered, and two
or three are picked at random
for the rating. November 11
and December 9 issues of the
Log were used. '

Bull Tells Science Meet
Africa Key to u.· S. Defense
By Fred Weymuller
The trouble with Americans is that they don't know their
way around the world, H. 0. N. Bull, L-C geography professor,
told the Oregon Student Science conference last Saturday in Bo
Dine hall. "Are the heirs of Great Britain to be run out of the
world by prospective enemies such as Russia, China, Germany or
Japan?" So Mr. Bull prefaced his talk on the importance of
Africa in geopolitics. Unified Program

A unified and correlated pro
gram of mathematics skills de
signed for the major and the
casual student as well comprises
the dual task of the Lewis and
Clark college department of
mathematics .
Small in· physical size-one of
tae smaller academic units on

in m a t h e m a t i c s specialties.
Teaching this wide range of
courses are only two full time
and one part time staff mem-.
hers. The department is head
ed by Profess Oil Katherine S.
Arnold.
Numbers Small
Approximately 150 persons are
enrolled in all phases of the
mathematics department pro
gram, Miss Arnold reports. Five
mathematics majors will gradu;
ate in June and another will
·finish the bachelor's degree in
August. '
"There is no general college
requirement in mathematics,''
Professor Arnold points out, in
explaining the comparatively
limited number of students par
ticipating in the program. mathematics, which is correlat
ed with the education depart~
ment. The tool subjects are
covered by courses in special
and advanced courses.
Growth has characterized cer
tain phases of the department's
work, Professor Amold points
out.
Growth Reported
"Eighteen students are now
registered in the course in the
teaching of mathematic s which
is three times as many as when
the course was first offered
three years ago," she states.
In addition to Miss Arnold,
Assistant Professor Elvy Freder
ickson has full time teaching
chores in the d e p art m e n t .
Dwight E. Loomis, instructor in
radio, teaches a course in me
chanics and · differential equa

Men predominate in the math
class sessions, Miss· Arnold re
ports. Of her 50 students only
three are girls, she reports.

P:erilous to Life and 'Limb' The dust has settled on what· many have termed "the
best student election this school has seen." 737 students
voted in the election. A new record. Great. Nietzche Finds Shack
What we'd like to know is what happened to the other
553 members of the student body. .With one of the most
promising campaign build-ups and best publicity efforts
ever put forth on the campus, even the most introverted
bookworm couldn't fail to know what was going on. And
somehow we doubt if all those 553 students are bookworms.
Bob Duncan and the other student body officers of this
year, as well as the many behind the scenes workers, are
to be praised for the fine planning and execution of the
elections. It was a good show and a close race. So close
that we wonder how many of that 553 are kicking them
selves today for not taking that extra minute to vote.

On one of his first excursions
in the shack, he was innocent

Bud Bradley came along and
tromped on his tail. Result: two

said he thought it was a banana

In general, recommendations

state that freshmen on probation
at mid-semester would be ex
cluded until they raised their
indexes. An ineligibility would
be removed at mid-semester or
at the end of a semester if a
~tudent is taken off probation,
If he has raised his index to the
required class figure or if he
has the approval of the dean of
his college.
Dean H. 0. Burdick pointed
out that there were two issues
to be considered in this prob
lem of exclusion: 1. How much
time was taken from the stu
dent's academi¢ work by extra
curricular activities and how
much time does a student spend
in actual study; and 2. the fact
that through extra-curricular ac

hurler John Nauman to the

Tomorrow's cinder meet should
mark the first' real competition
for Fix's. cfiarges this season. The
outcome, Fix stressed, shttuld be
very close-possibly not ten points
separating the two.
Close races are forecast in the
sprints, the mile and two-mile ' and in the shotput. In times 'this
season Portland thinclads have
shown an edge in all these events
but the two-mile.
The only cinch first for the Pio
neers seems to be in the pole
vault. Art Bakke has yet to taste
defeat in this event in college
competition except in a national

On the basis of times posted to

Three hundred eighty-four col

The papers entered in the
contest are rated on news values

and special features. Minimum
score for All-American rating is
950. The Log's 970 was well

The bi-yearly contest is run
by Associated Collegiate press,
through the journalism depart

Bull Tells Science Meet
Africa Key to u.· S. Defense
By Fred Weymuller
The trouble with Americans is that they don't know their
way around the world, H. 0. N. Bull, L-C geography professor,
told the Oregon Student Science conference last Saturday in Bo
Dine hall. "Are the heirs of Great Britain to be run out of the
world by prospective enemies such as Russia, China, Germany or
Japan?" So Mr. Bull prefaced his talk on the importance of
Africa in geopolitics. Unified Program

Small in· physical size-one of

Numbers Small
Approximately 150 persons are
enrolled in all phases of the

mathematics majors will gradu;

"There is no general college

Professor Arnold points out, in
explaining the comparatively
limited number of students par

covered by courses in special
and advanced courses.
Growth has characterized cer

work, Professor Amold points
out.
Growth Reported
"Eighteen students are now
registered in the course in the
teaching of mathematic s which
is three times as many as when
the course was first offered
three years ago," she states.
In addition to Miss Arnold,
Assistant Professor Elvy Freder
