senate interim committee. Groes
beck replaces Herman Oliver, who
resigned to become a member of
the state highway commission.
Confirmation for the two will
probably be made when the inter
im committee meets Saturday.
Hoke’s daughter, Joan, is a jun
ior in English on the campus.
25 Years
A practicing attorney for the last
25 years, Groesbeck's first career
was in the field of education. Grad
uating from Arcadia college in
Louisiana, he attended the Pea
body college for Teachers, Nash
ville, Tennessee, and the Univer
sity of Nashville. After taking
graduate work at the University of
Chicago, he helped in the estab
lishment of proper grade and high
schools in Louisiana and other
parts of the south.
After retiring from the educa
tional field, he graduated from the
Illinois College of Law in Chicago.
Locating in Klamath Falls, he has
practiced there since.
Civic leader
Groesbeck has served as chair
man of the agricultural committee
of the Klamath Falls Chamber of
Commerce. He promoted and or
ganized the first potato school
there. He has served three terms as
president of the Klamath Chamber
of Commerce and is chairman of
the Klamath county library board.
One of the “charter members”
of the state board, Oliver has served
since the board’s creation in 1929.
His resignation leaves F. E. Cal
lister as the lone active member
of the original board.
Miss Smith Returns
Miss Janet Smith, employment
secretary, spent the spring vaca

business men there as prospective

165 on Winter Term
Honor Roll; 19 Earn
Straight 'A' Grades
One hundred sixty-five students made the winter term honor roll,
while 19 made "straight A grades,” according to figures released by
the registrar's office Saturday. The fall term honor roll was con

1940 Oregana
Sale Renewed
This Morning
Only a Few Copies
Of Yearbook Left,
Williams Says
The 1940 Oregana' goes on sale
today at registration with only a
limited amount of copies remain
ing to be sold.
Of the 2300 books ordered, Dick
Williams, business manager, states
that in all probability there will
not be enough to handle the de
mand, since the only books re-:
maining to be sold are those that
will be cancelled by various stu
dents that didn't return to school
after the end of fall or winter
terms.
Sell for $5.50
Those books that arex left will
be sold for S5.50. A down-pay
ment of $3.50 will order a copy of
the Oregana arid the remaining
$2 will be deducted from the gen
eral deposit.
Advanced reports reveal that
this year’s edition of the Oregana,
with distribution date scheduled
for Junior Weekend, will be a
worthy successor to the long line
of All-Americans that have gone
by in past years.
Pictures Dominate
Student and faculty pictorial
coverage is predominant through
out the book with sports and stu
’ dent activities receiving wide dis
; play.
Williams warns that to wait un
til Junior Weekend to order a book
I will result in failure to obtain a
copy. “Tomorrow, it is first come,
first served, and come early to as
' sure yourself of a copy,” was his
advice last night.
