During that time it great deal has happened to Oregon. For one thing the enrollment has increased more than twenty per cent. The physical plant has been increased by a library, a men's physical education plant, an infirmary, a half finished humanities building, and another mile or so of heating tunnels. The faculty has been increased by a new president, a num ber of professors, now coaches. The reputation of the University has been enhanced by a national basketball champion ship, a campus daily that rates with the best, a rifle team which is the champion of the nation, a symphony orchestra that has been gvien high praise by professional men. The Oregana has won high awards. Track stars have held world titles. Oregon students have won CPA honors, have passed law exams with living colors, hold high positions in the business world. The list could be continued indefinitely. The slate board is visiting a University, we feed, of which it can be justly proud. We consider ourselves fortunate to be associated with it. Look it over, members of the slate board. Under your administration it has grown and prospered. The future stretches before us full of promise. Onceover Lightly By PAT TAYI.OU and SAHA 1WITCHKIX A daisy to the freshman class for their fine job of decorating the Igloo for the Frosh tiler. We’ve never seen the old place so completely and competently camouflaged. The staged feudin’ at dance was a clever idea, lint t’warn’t nothin’ like flic* feudin’ that went on .oxer the Daisy Mae con test afore the dance. It was O.K. with Mary Graham, Hendricks halier, if her partner stepped on her at the Fresh Glee, but when, a 200 pounder whom she didn't even know stepped on her foot and bloke a bone in it, that was puttin’ it on too heavy. Footnote of the week: Virginia liogan's powder blue wooden shoes. Stepping into society last weekend was Ford Mullen, Oregon’s baseball and basketball star, who had pretty Jessie Steer down from Olympia, Side Show ... By GORDON’ RIDGEWAY Yes indeedy, 'tis quite a tussle free-thinking Americans are now having over this recurrent problem of isolationism vs. collective security. And it seems that the students at Oregon had just a taste of the struggle last week when the strike for peace ended with a dispute of its own. So now that the shouting has quieted down, it might do to look into that little struggle again, including the “bouts” of Farquharson vs. Epps and Drews vs. Harlow And of course we can't help mentioning a relevant criticism of the whole pro cedure last Thursday that with about one excep tion there was plenty of emotional appeal and not enough real analysis of the fundamental problem. Of those who spoke at the assembly, Wash ington’s Mr. Farquharson was about the only one whose appeal was couched in precise and matter of-fact terms. He plainly set for his opinion in favor of military isolation. He drew an analogy betv/een the present situation and that of 1917, pointing out that they were quite similar, and stating that he could not help feeling that the result wrould be the same. Everyone seems to agree now that the result of our entrance into the World war was bad bad for us and possibly for all Europe. Thus Mr. Farquharson wants to keep our military frontiers on this continent. It is regrettable that we can not say so much in praise of Oregon’s Mr. Epps. We find that his address rested for the most part on a personal appeal for support of President Roosevelt in any thing which he may do. Mr. Epps’ next plea was that America go over and ‘‘clean out” the European dictators. Again he seemed to forget that the last war bred and helped set up the present crop of dictators. And he passed over the fact that war-time conditions automatically suppress all the char acteristics of democratic government in this coun try. Finally, he at all times failed to show why the forces opposing “Hitler incorporated” should all be considered as forces for utopian good rather than movements to further individual selfish aims. Of course, pledges and expression of unanimous opinion are inspiring things. But they are seldom very rational, and may become dangerous tools. After all, hasn’t Hitler been approved by the German people by practically a unanimous vote? Washington. Jessie is the society editor of a news paper there. » « * Recent Comeback: Barbara Ward, Alpha Chi Omega, returned .Facie Coleman’s Sigma Nu pin. And it is rumored that because of a little difficulty IJetty lYfihic, Alpha Chi Omega, is not wearing Jack l.oehridge’s Fiji pin. * * :|s The return of rainy weather hasn’t seemed to affect the pin planting season. Last week found Kay Babcock, Kappa, wearing Lala Wintermute’s Beta pin, Sue foil, Alpha Phi, accepting Ralph Lafferty’s SAE pin, and Irene Yturri, Alpha Chi, taking Boh Clay’s Sigma Chi emblem. Then, too, Annette Ansley, I)G, came home the other day with Fred Ziegler’s Sigma Nu pin. Barbara Roberts was very much alarmed the other day over losing a diamond dinner ling which she valued at around $300. She found it a day later underneath her study table. See what can happen to girls who study. And box office receipts weren't the only nice thing about "With Fear and Trembling." Behind llie scenes Wilfred Roadman gave his DU pin to Janei Fames, Gamma Phi, who dances in tin1 show. And Lorraine Hixson's stage-door-Johnnie is Verity, Sigma Chi. Eugene townspeople are objecting to all the light romance—or should we say—lighted romance going on on the campus. Evidently they think too much light is being east on the subjects. Moral: Boys who kiss their girls good night Should avoid doing it under a light. Oregon Betas Double Victors Beta Rho, Oregon chapter of Beta Theta Pi, came away double winners from the annual spring conclave of Northwest chapters of Beta Theta Pi in Portland Satur day, which was attended by about three hundred and seventy-five members.

It is my understanding that my testimony is desired because of my judicial experience in the field of labor re lations.
