Seamen's Merger
Into CIO Discussed
SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 18.—An
attempt to merge 100,000 seamen
into one large union of CIO mem
bership was launched today as the
east coast leaders pledged their ef
forts towards putting the plan
through.
■ Joseph Curran, leader of the Na
tional Maritime Union said, “As
maritime labor goes, so will go ev-1
ery labor union in the nation.” Only
one group of sea-going laborers did
not attend the meet, the Sailors Un
ion of the Pacific, which declined
two offers to attend. The confer
ence elected Curran as president of
the unity meeting.
Extension Aid
Helps Novelist
Gain Success
After 12 years of correspond- j
ence courses from the University
of Oregon general extension divi
sion and many more years of writ
ing on her own initiative, Mrs. A.
F. de Lespinasse, of Hubbard,
Oregon, has gained material suc
cess as a novelist and as associate
editor of the Women’s Home
Companion.
Records in the extension divi
sion tell briefly but graphically
the story of Mrs. de Lespinasse’s
career as a writer. Beginning her
correspondence study in 1917,
when her first child was three
years old, she continued taking
all courses in creative writing of
fered by the extension division. As
one of her assignments she wrote
an autobiographical sketch of
herself which was published in the
“Extension Monitor,” a little bul
leton now extinct, published by
the extension division for their
correspondent students. When
the University of Oregon’s facili
V- ties for such study Were exhaust
ed, Mrs. de Lespinasse took
courses from Columbia university.
Meanwhile, while acting as lo
cal correspondent for Willamette
valley papers, raising a family,
and keeping house, she found time
to write a novel, “Bells of Hel
mus,” which was published in the
fall of 1934. Now, as visiting edi
tor of the Women’s Home Com
panion, Mrs. de Lespinasse has an
article in the current issue of that j
magazine, telling of her years of
study and work with the exten
sion division.
Sleepy siuaes uoze

subject responded with an entirely
different view. “Poor ventilation,”
says he. “Once in a while students
might sleep in class because of lack
of sleep, but in my opinion the real
j( reason is because the various build
ings on the campus are so poorly
ventilated that even the most am
bitious student could not keep from
drowsing at times.”
Professor Huffaker pointed out
that many of the rooms which are
equipped for an average of 45 stu
dents are overloaded with 80 stu
dents thus increasing the need for
more ventilation. But in the educa
tion building as in many other build
ings on the campus, windows furn
ish the only means of ventilation.
The Heat Element
In answer to the question, “Why
do students sleep in some lectures
some days and in other classes oth
er days?" Professor Huffaker rea
soned that this is caused by some
class rooms' being warmer than oth
ers. When asked how it felt to lec
ture to a group of drowsy students,
-^he replied that, “It doesn’t bother
me; if they can sleep through the
classes and get their work as ac
curately as they do, more power to
them."
“It might be that they sleep be
cause they are bored, but I doubt it,
because if they were that bored
they wouldn't be taking the subject
in most cases,” he said.

Graybeal's name appears on the
list. Also, that the name of one
Bill "Hardroek'' Raeli is in evi
dence. Rowe promises action at
a near date.
^ Though things have been pret

the past few days, Rowe says he
and his colleagues expect a gen
eral pick-up soon. Who will be
first?
Communists Decline
To Make Decision
Immediately
PARIS, Jan. 18.—In its fifth day,
the longest French cabinet crisis
since the world war came to an end
tonight with Premier Camille Chau
temps’ success in forming a new
government. His cabinet is com
posed mostly of radical-socialists.
Socialists who participated in
Chautemps’ preceding government
did not take places in the ministry
again, but their support of the new
cabinet was assured. Previous min
isters of foreign and military af
fairs have been reseated, however,
giving evidence that policies of
those departments will remain un
changed.
Communists Hold Out
Communist members of parlia
ment are reserving judgment of the
new government until some definite
program is outlined. Chautemps
appeared sure that he can gain a
majority without the communist
support.
Chief problems facing the pre
mier are in capital-labor difficulties,
and stabilization of the franc.
The new cabinet became number
103 since founding of the Third Re
public.
Pierce Forecasts
Public Ownership
WASHINGTON, Jan. 18—Rep
resentative Pierce of Oregon in a
radio address today explained
that the government power de
veloped from the Bonneville and
Grand Coulee dams would devel
op a “strong sentiment” for pub
lic ownership of northwest power
utilities He said that cities should
start immediately to take neces
sary steps to ascertain the value
of privately owned municipal
power distribution.

ing regulations, sounds almost un
believable but such a place exists
in Sweden at the Universitas Regis
Upsaliensis, founded in 1477, ac
cording to Gustave Eliot Henschen,
former student there, now attend
ing the University of Texas.
“Students working their way
through the Universitas are almost
non-existant, because of the num
ber of scholarships and the fact
that a student may borrow 1,500
crowns from the government with
out interest. Tuition is free, fees
are low, and the students can us
ually make enough money to repay
the government during the long
summers,” Henschen said.
There is practically no class dis
tinction on the campus, he said.
Students are classified mainly ac
cording to the faculty under which
they study and their geographical
origin. These groups are called
“nations.” Each nation has a house,
often pretentious, for its headquar
ters.
Both sexes belong to each nation.
Often both live in the same house.
There is no regulation on how late
a person stays out, or how many
nights a week he or she may have
dates. '
The students in Sweden must de
cide on their life work about the
age of 14. Then they have to pre
pare five or six years ahead for the
entrance examinations to the Uni
versitas.

as well as possibly providing space
for a cafeteria, the Co-op, and liv
ing quarters.
The dean of personnel sees in
the rapidly increasing proportion
of unorganized students, a threat
to the University morale. Effec
tive organization of this portion of
the student population would re
sult in an increase of purpose and
a finer college spirit, he believes.
Dean Onthank added a. note of
warning to his endorsement of the
movement when he urged caution
in planning the program. “It is
dangerous to go too far on bor
rowed money. Many schools go too
heavily in debt, and in period of
depression when enrollment fails,
they are met with difficulties.” he

“Beef” will reign supreme
Saturday night with the revival
of the annual Order of the O

Saturday night in Gerlinger hall.
Headline attraction will be a
“gigantic” intermission spec
tacle in which neophyte wearers
of the block lemon “O” will strut
their stuff in a red hot demon
stration of tumultuous dance
steps including everything from
the Susy Q to the Big Apple, if
the floor holds out.
Among the apprentice “O”

filled with an oily surfacing ma
terial, and workmen were yester
day digging up the walks leading
to Thirteenth avenue preparatory
to putting in the filler on which
concrete will eventually be poured.
On the walks leading to Thir
teenth only a narrow lane will be
left for use until the whole will be
covered by concrete, according to
Fred A. Cuthbert, University land
scape architect in charge of the
project.
Since the beginning of the term
WPA men have been engaged in
laying 180 feet of heat pipe line
from the library to the museum
line. The ditch for this is already
dug and all that remains is the
connecting and' insulating of the
pipe. This new line is the old type
in use before the adoption of the
modern tunnel system, and will be
an emergency line which is part
of a circuit embracing the whole
lower campus.
First of the projects to receive
concrete will be the horseshoe.
Landscaping will be seeded where
necessary.
i rum on nypnotism
dividual differences in suggestibil
ity is still obscure.
The first symptom of the sub
ject's responding to sleep sugges
tions is the fluttering and closing
of the eyelids. Breathing become;
deeper and slower. The subject re
laxes.
"At Lhis stage all of the majoi
hypnotic phenomena can be dem
onstrated. The subject may be tok
that his left hand is insensible, fol
lowing which it is possible to drav
blood with a sharp instrumen
without any noticeable reactions o
pain. Or he may be told that he i.
blind, that he feels a red-hot in
strument. that water will taste bit
ter. that his arm is becoming rigi<
and he cannot bend it, that he can
not pick up a coin in front of him
and the suggestions are execute*
in a methodical way."
A subject may be awakened fron
I a trance by telling them to wak
I up. Often, leaving the room for i
I short time will cause the subject b
j awaken, unless he is specificali;
told not to.
Other belief which are found t
be wrong are that only abcorn u

today as Japan moved towards es

Peiping. This act confirmed Japan
ese refusal to no longer recognize
the regime of Kiang Kai-Shek.
Reports that Germany had offered
to mediate the conflict were con
firmed in the foreign office, but the
cffer was rejected, the department
explained. The disclosure revealed
that German Ambassador Herbert
Von Dirksen had informed Japan
that the Chinese government was
ready to consider peace terms.
Premier Prince Fumimaro Kon
oye declared that the Peiping re
gime, under the protection of the
Japanese army, would provide for
“peace and culture in the orient.”
Meanwhile, Chinese and Japanese
forces were reported in bitter battle
along the Yantze river. Each side
claimed to have inflicted the great

been entered against her.
Maxim Litvinoff, Soviet minis
ter, told Hull that the long-missing
“Donald Louis Robinsons” had
been under virtual arrest since De

with false passports'. American
authorities have proven that the
couple received their American
passports on the basis of falsified
birth certificates.

Silver Victim
Of!Foul 'Play;
Visitors Man y
A victim of ‘foul’ play, that is
chickenpox, Oregon's stellar for
ward, Dave Silver, is residing in
the University infirmary and
seems to be attracting, as visitors,
only those who are able to depart
from their visit leaving cartoon
autographs on the door of the
victim’s “isolation" room.
Proving to be quite the popu
lar inmate at the infirmary, Sil
ver’s quota of two visitors is
filled very shortly after visiting
hours are opened. A virtual sign
board, similar to that scene in oc
casional scenes in “Gasoline Al
ley,” has been made on the pa
tient’s door and would-be car
toonists take advantage of the
seemingly humorous situation to
depict Silver as he appears at
tired in his hospital garments.
Summer School Art
Scholarship Given
Two acceptances of scholarships
to the University art school summer
session have already been received
by Dean Lawrence. Twelve of the
22 invitations were sent out recent
ly, and the rest will be issued as
soon as selections can be completed.
One hundred twenty-five final ap
plications and nominations have
been received so far, the dean said.
The scholarships are given to art
teachers through funds provided by
the Carnegie Foundation. The
amount available this year for
scholarships is $4,050. This is $450
less than previous grants. The rea
son for the decrease in the grant,
Dean Lawrence said, is because a
small art center has been estab
lished at the University of Pennsyl
vania.
Altogether 125 teachers, repre
senting over 100 schools in different
parts of the country, have received
instruction since the grant was
given to the University eight years
ago.

Studying Is Muscular
Job Research Shows
By DOROTHY MEYER
Recent discoveries made at the
Indiana university, revealing that
when mental work such as studying
is done, muscles all through the
body are called into action, was pro
nounced "very interesting,” by Dr.
Lester F. Beck, assistant professor
of psychology.
“It merely substantiates mate
rials collected from numerous other
observations that mental activity is
not divorced from bodily activity.”
Dr. Jacobsen of the University of
Chicago, he said, found that indi
viduals can be taught to such an ex
tent that all mental action disap
pears.
Only in work with hypnotism
have any similar discoveries beer
made at the University of Oregon
The inability of an individual tc
realize what has transpired during
hypnotism is found to be caused b>
the change of muscular attitude
The instructional film, "Hypnosis,’
recently prepared by Dr. Beck
shows results of various experi
ments and is at the present tinu
used in psychology classes at the
University.
The film has been available foi
sale for three months, and has beer
purchased by the Massachusetts In
stitute of Technology, Carnegie In
stitute of Technology, University ol
Mississippi, Colgate University
Dartmouth college, and others.

Red and Black Ike
Team in Wilderness
Jack Lewis and Eddie Hearn,
the rollicking Red Ike and Black
Ike of “Roadside;” are again
teamed in the University theater
production of “Ah! Wilderness,” by
Eugene O'Neil.
In this play they take the roles
of the*MilleTbrothers"! Richard and
Arthur. Richard, played by Jack
Lewis, is the central figure around
which the play revolves. He is a
high school senior who is sensitive,
idealistic, and full of the brand of
radicalism current in 1906.
Arthur, played by Eddie Hearn,
is a sophomore at Yale, and is a
thorough going example of the
1906 Joe College. It is his conten
tion that the cure for Richard’s
radical notions is to send him to
Yale.
Box office sale for “Ah! Wilder

Remember tlit’ game? A handkerchief over your
eyes . . . your bauds searching for someone,
feeling blindly over features your eyes could
so easily know. It seems foolish—deliberately
to blindfold yourself and go searching. You
wouldn’t blindfold yourself deliberately when
you start out in search of purchases that help
make life a game.
If you can read I lie advertisements first you
are spared the doubts and mistakes. Adver
tisements take the handkerchief off of your
eyes. They equip you with keen vision. They
lead you direct to the shaving cream that will
give most shaving comfort, to the most current
styles in clothes, to the quality services that
you seek. They put in your hands familiar
good things guaranteed to please.
You can’t afford to buy under a blind man’s
buff. Read the advertisements to avoid the
blindness—amt the buff!
