Take the case of the honor roll, for in stance. Fall term saw the honor roll shrink to a record low in percentage. In the face of the largest enrollment in history only 118 made the honor roll. Monday’s list, however, showed a far dif ferent picture. Witli not quite as high enroll ment as fall term—for winter quarter always shows a drop—there were nearly half again as many names as on the fall term list, while the four-point group only missed doubling itself by a gnat’s eyelash. HEN you stand up winter’s 165 beside T fall’s 118 it appears that things picked up very decidedly last term, in the way of studying at least. And 19 four-points this time is phenomenal compared with January’s 10. Last year only 186 made it, and the year before it was 143. * There are not many choices when it comes to explaining the rise. It is not likely that pro fessorial hearts softened. The only valid con clusion would seem to be that there was more application to the business of studying, and with better success. Winter term grades are always higher than fall, but not this high. So if honor roll figures are any indication, winter term grades were as extremely good this year as those of fall term were bad. Of course the honor roll represents only a few of the three and a half thousand grade-getters in the University, but the rise ought to be gen eral, for the honor roll usually parallels all school figures quite closely. # # # ^^TTH this most recent winter term’s record high mark in mind, fall term’s low grades would seem more of a boon than a calamity, for if the picture at the start of wdnter quarter had not been so black it might not have been so bright now. Extremes breed extremes. Present honor roll figures stand more nearly where they o^ight to be. The BAND BOX By BILL MOXLEY Spring Brings New Ones During the last two weeks the music business has greeted spring with a whole flock of new songs, many of which are already well on their way to be coming big successes. The “Broadway Melody of 1940’’ started the ball rolling with two swell songs: “I've Got My Eyes on You” and "I Concentrate on You.” Bob Chester comes forth with a couple of really smooth tunes in “With the Wind and the Rain in Your Hair” and “I Walk With Music.” Both of these dit ties have unusual lyrics ex pressed in a clever fashion. Glenn Miller’s latest discs in clude “Sweet Potato Piper” and “Too Romantic.” Rating: above average. Glenn also records one of the tunes from the forthcom ing picture "Buck Benny Rides Again”; the tune is “My My.” ‘Tuxedo’ Real Junction And of course “Tuxedo Junc tion” is still leading the parade of nationwide favorites and is well on its way to becoming a swing classic. Here is a bit of interesting info on this pagan rhythm number: it seems that it was named after an honest to-goodness trolley junction in the steel mill district of Bir mingham, Alabama.

CAMPUS SHOE SHOP 843 E. 13th - \ Behind the With JACK BRYANT This column’s weather fore casting department predicts more rain; and for two good rea sons, first, because more rain seems inevitable at the time, and second, it would be nice if we could be the perfect host and make our California guests right at home. Speaking of California, that SC (Trojan horse) basketball team turned out to be a Charlie horse as they get cleaned before they get out of the western playoffs. And those Cal guys said SC’s team was greater than our champs. The big difference between the two teams seems to be that our team got the points when they needed them. All of which brings back mem ories of the score of the OSC-SC game. SC edged out a victory by about 40 points over our country cousins, or do you remember? you Beavers. The John Day Rangers could have done better. But let’s don’t get down in the dumps, some of the good things are coming. Take the KKK for example. Very clever these hoys charging 99 cents for a brunette, 89 for a blonde and 79 for the committee’s gal friends. If it were possible the backers of the dance would probably put the Igloo on rock ers to add to the novelty. (May be that shouldn't have been sug gested.) But anyway, Friday night the best advertised dance of the year comes off with a full three hour course in Mus ical Knowledge spiced by a pro gram that even Clatskanie will want to tune in on.
