Students Sought
PETITION IS SIGNED
Graduate Manager’s Office States
Medical Students Do Not Pay
Kegular ASUO Fees
The University of Oregon medi
cal school yesterday petitioned the
graduate managers of Oregon and
Oregon State to allow medical
students the usual student privi
leges at Saturday's game, claim
ing that medical students are an
integral part of the University
student body.
The complete petition signed by
SI students of the school follows:
“In view of the obvious fact that
we here at the University of Ore
gon medical school who are duly
and legally enrolled as students
of the University under the Ore
gon state system of higher edu
cation, we the undersigned do
hereby petition the graduate man
agers of the University and Ore
gon State College, namely Hugh
E. Rosson and Carl Lodell, for
student body recognition in the
form of admission to the Oregon
rooter section at the game to be
played in Portland November 11,
1933, between the University and
the College, for a due and reason
able consideration.
“We feel entitled to this privi
lege because we were given it in
the many years past and this year
were allowed to go under the same
impression regarding this year’s
game until this late date. Also
the opportunity for the purchase
of suitable reserved seats has been
allowed to pass due to the late
notice which has set us aside. We
therefore feel entitled to a con
sideration.”
Copies of this petition were sent
to the University and Oregon
State college.
In commenting on the petition,
the graduate manager s office said
that the medical students do not
pay the regular A. S. U. O. mem

Frances Brockman’s Violin
Recital Enjoyed by Audience
By GUY WERNHAM j i
Frances Brockman, accompan- '
ied by Theresa Kelly, was heard i
in a recital of violin music Monday i
night at the music auditorium. She '
played to a large and enthusiastic "
audience. i
The program was divided into
three parts, of which the first, i
Handel’s well known sonata for
violin and piano, was decidedly the
highlight of the evening Miss i
Brockman’s performance was char
acterized by that technical facility i
and musical understanding for
which she has already been so fre
quently applauded. Furthermore, <
her rendering of the slow move- i
ments of the sonata was refresh
ingly devoid of sentimentality.

230 Additional
Student Names
Put on Petition
Demand for Resignation
Of Nelson Increases
TOTAL IS UP TO 1250
Committee of 50 Prepares to Send
Signatures to Governor,
Board Members
A total of 230 student names
yesterday was added to the peti
tion first circulated over the cam
pus Monday asking Roscoe C. Nel
son to resign as chairman of the
Oregon state board of higher edu
cation. These additional signatures
ind the total Monday of more than
1000 names brought the number
of University student protestors
igainst Nelson's statements to
more than 1250.
The committee of 50 named
Monday by Tom Tongue, president
of the student body, met yester
lay afternoon to consider future
action and to arrange for prepar
ing the petitions for presentation
to Governor Meier and members
Df the state board of higher educa
tion.
Reasons Stressed
Tongue emphasized the fact
that this group was formed with
out any thought of the revival of a
feud with Oregon State students.
He declared that the two reasons
for the creation of the committee
should be emphasized.
The first of these is to inform
students of the University of all
the events leading up to the pres
snt crises so that they will have an
understanding of the problems
now facing them and to keep them
informed about the progress of
events.
The second objective is to pro
vide the leadership so necessary at
this time in order to prevent un
warranted outbreaks that would
reflect discredit on higher educa
tion and to ask that expressions of
students' opinion be made only af
ter careful and level-headed con
sideration of the issues involved.
Investigation Due
In a meeting of the directors of
:he Eugene chamber of commerce
yesterday, to determine its policy
in the present University contro
versy, Stanley Stevenson, president
of the board of directors, appoint
ed a committee to investigate the
responsibility of the chamber in
the selection of Dr. W. J. Kerr as
chancellor of Oregon higher edu
cation. No agreement was reached
on the policy to be followed.
Tongue announced the person
nel of the Committee of 50 in full
last night. He is chairman of the
group, and Jean Failing is secre
tary. Members of the executive
lommittee are Sterling Green, Jack
Cate, Otto Vonderheit, Dick Near,
ind Glen Hieber.

In Paying Installment
All students, unless they had
an extension, must pay the 25
cent per day late payment fee
if they failed to pay their final

matically suspended from the
University and may be rein
stated only by payment of the
fees and penalties due with an
additional penalty of $2 for re

Chairman Declares
'Single Course Open
To Me’ in Statement
Portland Believes New Board President
Ready to Resign Position and
Expects Formal Action
Reports from Portland late last night gave every indication that
Roscoe C. Nelson, newly elected president of the state board of higher
education, would soon resign.
The rumors were largely based upon a statement from Nelson
ending “but a single course is open to me.” This final statement was
regarded as indicating his intention.
No formal resignation had as yet been handed to the governor,
it was said.
Full text of Nelson's statement follows:
“Many have called on me to say ‘keep up the good fight' and to
advise ‘don’t resign under fire,’ ” Nelson said. “But my integrity is
not impugned In this matter, so this 'under fire’ angle is nut uu ele
ment. The personal abuse, added to the tremendous work of the job
University Fine
Arts School Will
Furnish Displays
Artists’ League Chooses Evolution
Of Art Theme for Portland
‘Festival’ Exhibits
Displays from the University
fine arts department will be sent
to Portland for the art week and
festival there, sponsored by the
Oregon Artists’ Professional
league, November 12 to 20.
The exhibit will trace the various
linos of evolution in art from the
pourteenth century to the present
period..
Exhibits of three phases of art
will be featured during the week.
The fine arts, painting, sculpture,
architectural landscape, architec
tural sketches, and architecture;
the arts and crafts, weaving and
pottery, metal, jewelry and glass;
landscape gardening and associat
ed arts, garden sculpturing, tiles,
pottery, and garden designs; and
fourth group, including photogra
phy, advertising art, public school
art, and window displays, useful
arts as textiles, costumes, and in
terior decoration will be shown to
stimulate interest in Oregon’s cul
ture. Art is expressed with nature
forms as gardens, fruits and flow
ers in window displays of the flor
ist and grocer shops.
I The aim of the exhibtion is to
further the ideals and practice of
art and to bring before the people
the comprehensive scope of the
varied art activities within the
state.
These exhibits will be on display
in merchants’ windows, in the art
museums and studios, in public
schools, banks, chamber of com
merce, library, hotels, tea rooms,
private gardens, and at the talent
workers bazaar.
A lecture on art will be held at
the artist’s dinner at the Heath
man hotel November 11.
1 itself, makes the position on the
board quite unpleasant. I am not
an office holder in the usual sense
of the term, so might not be ex
pected to take such abuse and like
it. I can never express my grati
tude in appreciation to the legion
of persons who have called, writ
ten, or telephoned to plead for the
interest of the state and the Uni
versity itself, for that matter, with
me not to resign.
“Among these are scores of Uni
versity alumni. I hope when I
reach a final decision in what I
conceive to be the best public in
terest, these friends in the same
spirit of kindness they have shown
* now, will believe that I am not
actuated by any motive which was
fringed with rancor, bitterness, or
even resentment, but only a deep
and sinoere regret. But a single
course is open to me.’’
This latest development was re
garded as nearly the closing chap
ter in the brief history of one of
the most tumultuous uprisings in
the history of higher education in
Oregon. Last Thursday Nelson in
addresses on this campus and in
Corvallis attacked the portions of
the University student body which
were antagonistic to the chancel

and Tuesday.

Women Lose Sophistication
In Rush for Football Tickets
“Women’s tickets for the Ore
gon-Oregon State football game
will be exchanged for student body
cards at a booth between Oregon
and Commerce buildings beginning
Monday morning at 8 a. m."—
Emerald.
A quarter of eight! Student
body cards waving, women hurry
ing, moans of “No breakfast," and
“I have an eight o’clock,” Monday
morning, as women plunged down
the campus to exchange a student
body card for a free round-trip to
Portland and a. ticket to the foot
ball game.
Forgetting their college sophis
tication many a college woman
rushed around the person in front
of her, and ran for the space be
tween Oregon and Commerce,
where the ticket booth should have
been. A surging crowd surrounded
the spot designated for the booth.
Men stood on the corners laugh
ing at the agitated cries of the
football-mad co-eds. As the ridic
ulousness of the situation dawned
on some of the more timid souls,
small groups crept away with
sheepish looks upon their faces.
Behind them a mob, oblivious to
the humor of the picture they pre
sented, milled around the spot of
the absent booth.
At 8:30 the crowd had dispersed
and the ticket booth arrived in
silence and dignity. When this
news had traveled, 100 women,
tackling, blocking, kicking, and
straight-arming members of oppo
site tongs, made end-runs and for
ward passes to make their first
down, a small blue ticket.
