Holiday Gives Chance To Invite Dads Down J. Lockridge Suggests Letters for Students Not Going Home; 3 Days' Festivities Students who are not, going home for the Thanksgiving vaca tion are asked to take advantage of the holidays and drop a line home to dad, inviting him down for Dud’s day, December 3-5, it was stated last night by Jack Loch ridge, chairman of the Dad’s clay promotion committee. “Those who go home will have even a better chance to invite their dads,” Loch ridge said, "because they can contact him personally, and that’s exactly what we urge everyone who goes home to do. Hand him a program of the week end and tell him the campus will be all his for three days, December 3 to 5. He’ll enjoy Dad’s day with you.” Lochridge and his committee have distributed special Dad’s day stationery and programs to every living organization, where repre sentatives are on hand to give them to the students. Supplies of both programs and letterheads are available to independent students at the Co-op store. Plans for the weekend are pro gressing rapidly, according to Bill Cummings, general chairman. At a meeting of the banquet commit tee yesterday, final arrangements for the Dad’s day banquet were made, and it was announced that Chancellor Frederick M. Hunter will be the main speaker. The com plete program for the banquet will be announced later. Dramatic Program To Be Aired Friday In connection with non-credit cor respondence courses in drama pre sented by the WPA through the general extension division, Miss Madeline Goodall, who was grad uated with honors from the Uni versity in 1929, will conduct a dramatic program over KOAC Fri day. The program, designed to inform correspondence students how plays can be produced in groups for amusement or for making money, will include discussion and presen tation of a scene, probably from Jane Austen's novel, “Pride and Prejudice.” Reporting Classes (Continued from pai/c one) Mr. Hulten hands them to the re porters. After covering and writ ing the stories, the reporters turn them in directly to the paper, and a carbon copy is submitted to Mr. Hulten. Types of stories written have in cluded sports, speeches, club meet ings, city council meetings, con ventions, and municipal affairs. Frequently they cover a beat for one of the papers’ regular report ers who has been sent out of town. The papers cooperate with the pro gram, often giving by-lines in recognition of the students’ good work. Mr. Hulten admits that he began the new idea with some trepida- I tion, but students and the down town papers have worked so well together that the plan will un- i doubtedly be continued in the fu ture, he reports. Iron Lung Will Be Shewn on Campus During Next Week — University of Oregon students will have an opportunity to see the Kugene “iron lung” on the campus, according to a decision made by the Kugene “Iron lung” | committee Monday night. The lung will he placed in one of the rooms of the new library on Wednesday and Thursday, December 1 and 2, where stu j dents may examine it. The campaign for funds is still being carried on by the committee with the intention of providing a permanent endow- I ment for maintaining the “lung" and of buying for oxy gen tents, one of which will be j placed in the University infirm ary. Two of the tents will be placed in the Sacred Heart hos pital, and one in the Eugene hospital. Cost of the four tents is estimated at $1000. The committee will appeal to ' the University for further aid J in the project. Students con tributed approximately $394 to ward the purchase of the “iron j lung” when an appeal was made I at one of the football games in Hayward field. Drainage Ditches Grace Landscape West of New Libe WPA workmen proceeded yes terday to move landscape at var ious points of the campus, in spite of the continuous downpour of rain throughout the day. Most conspicuous of the opera tions were those at the west end of the library, where a system of surface drains is Ijeing laid. This type of drain consists of a ditch dug at sufficient pitch to allow drainage, with driunuge tile laid for permanence. Other men continued on land scaping around the remodeled men’s natatorium, where grading i" be^ig done. The grading has re ceived atention from time to time since the completion of the build ing, but is still unfinished. Following the grading, the ground surrounding the pool and on the west side of the infirmary will be seeded for grass. * He sumrt in n IM'.M BKIjIj Sweater ! The latest sweater fashion !

Soph Informal Price Cut To Card Holders In keeping with the policy of giving sophomore class card hold ers “their money’s worth,” co chairmen Chuck Skinner and Phil Lowry announced a reduction to card holders for the annual all campus informal December 4. The reduction will be 25 cents of the one dollar admission, the co chairmen said. Plans for Maurie Binford and Gus Meyers to furnish a two-band musical setting for the dance fell through last night, Skinner said, when Binford said he was playing for the Sophomore Cotillian at Oregon State December 4. The co-chairmen have contacted Dan Flood and Gil Evans in Port land and Johnny Mercer at Cor vallis. Consolidated Radio Artists have also submitted bids for the dance, they said, offering Fletcher Henderson or Clyde McCoy.
