The Passing Parade By DOC HENRY Well, here we are again, every one I hope has recuperated from the strenuous weekend. Last Fri day night I attended one of the finest rallies that has been held on the campus. Congratulations to the Order of the O, Joe Gur ley and the Jr. Weekend commit tee, but I still think that Gene Brown takes the cake for tieups. At exactly 8:20 a.m. Sunday morning after the Easter sunrise services ROY VERNSTROM, Delt, planted his pin on BETTY MAE LIND, and ROY has always been the bachelor of the Oregon campus. Don Hicks, another Delt, who led their victorious song group goes to the infirmary with the measules after the song contest. Pat Sutton, Irene Bloomer and Jan (Spam) Spann, Gamma Phis, go bicycling. Yvonne Torgler, Alpha O, is this column’s nomination for the gal that really gets around— Sunday she had a breakfast date with a Phi Psi, tea with an SAE, and then an evening date with a Sigma Nu—whew, quite a stren uous day, I’d say. One sure sign of spring is the Phi Delt phonograph blaring forth the latest Boogie Woogie from their side of the porch, you can hear it clear over to the li brary, of course no one goes there anyway during the spring term. What happened to Bon Caw ley's Kappa Sig pin Saturday night, his gal would not tell him, and he couldn’t find' it. We won der . . . The Jr. weekend queen and her princesses are apparently well tied up as all of them either have pins or are going steady. E.g., Annabelle Dow and A1 Silvernail are going stady; Jean Burt has Jim Carney’s Sigma Nu pin; Hel en Angell is wearing a Sigma Chi pin donated by Jeff Kitchen; Barbara Todd is going steady with Porky Andrews, and Bobbie Neu has Norm Foster’s Delt pin pretty good for a bunch of'queens. The Steers twins, Howdy and Hank, Sigma Nus, seen at the Lemon squeeze, in their first so cial venture of the term, squir ing a couple of beautiful rushees. . . . this social life is great, isn’t it, boys? ? ? Joe’s Shine (Date) shop was so crowded with fellows trying to get their shoes pretties up that I couldn’t even get in to read a magazine Saturday evening . . . almost every body was getting ready for the rushees .... Les Steers, Sigma Chi, drops his pin to Marge Hosfeldt, Gamma Phi, nice work, Les. J. Hervin Collects Insurance Prize Jason Hervin, Laura Hughes, and Wilbur Osterloh were first, second, and third prize winners in the annual life insurance sales contest concluded in Portland Wednesday, April 2. The Life Managers’ association of Oregon awarded the winners a total of $35 in prize money. The three winners won the right to compete in Portland in a campus preliminary and per formed Wednesday noon in the Congress hotel before members of the association. A staff statistician report.3 in the Whitworth college Whistle that “there are only three clean saddle oxfords on the campus and two approximately clean.” LUCKY CBS Peggy Knudsen was graduated from a mid-west finishing school, but decided on an acting career. She appears in {lie CBS radio feature, “Woman in White.” International (Continued from page four) concentration camps, ail in the name of rulirg class morality. So far so good, you say, but where does Gene as a potential fascist come in? Right here. Mill says despotism is a legitimate mode of government in dealing with barbarians, provided the end be their improvement and the means justified by actually achieving that end. No Liberty for Dumb-bells “Liberty, as a principle, has no application to any state of things anterior to the time •when man kind has become capable of be ing improved by free and equal discussion,’’ writes Mill, continu ing, “Until then, there is nothing for them (mankind) but implicit obedience to an Akbar or a Charlemagne, if they are so for tunate as to find one.” Now Gene sends me to Mill for enlightenment, so I assume Gene has read Mill, understood him, and agrees with him. If so, and if he still thinks that “the great mass es of human beings are not fit to govern theipselves,” then it fol lows that it is all right for an Akbar or a Charlemagne, and by extension even a Hitler or a Sta lin to govern them “for their own good.” But if he thinks despotism is a legitimate government for the “stupid masses” of today then Gene is at least a Tory, and if he thinks it is all right for Hitler to govern the “German barbarians” then of course he is a potential fascist. Q.E.D. Chappel to Speak At Spring Banquet Bert V. Chappel, department of finance, Portland, has been chosen speaker at the spring term banquet of Beta Gamma Sigma, April 22, at the Eugene hotel. His topic will be “The Day Is Coming.” FRED’S CAMPUS SHOP Men’s Haberdashery by Wilson Brothers Across from Sigma Chi Cleaning Ph. 3141 In Time With the Tunes By RUBY JACKSON Music, as an activity, is giving pleasure for the present and fu ture to a surprising number of students on the campus. Contrary to the opinion of some, music as a hobby is not confined to dull intellectuals. Here’s proof. Thetas Virginia Swearingen, Marge Dibble, and Mary Booth like music and have record collec tions to prove it. So have Lillian Davis and Barbara Todd, Alpha Chi Os. The Kappa house boasts a “house collection” of records, and Mary Clear supplements that with her own. Music Library The Sig Eps possess an excel lent music library, according to the Gamma Phis, who say they like to borrow it for firesides. Gamma Phi Mary Earl should be able to help out with her fine group of recorded piano concer tos. In the Chi O house Robin Nel son, Lee English, Harriet Seiple, Laurie Wraith, Nancy Allen, and Peggy Lou Doxsee all collect mu sic, while Pi Kap Wally Heider is reported to have over 1200 records of all sorts. Their Favorites Pat Vandeneynde, Pifi, likes Strauss waltzes, and many of her records give out this lilting mu sic. Don Treadgold’s collection is representative of music through the ages. Don Eva likes songs. Ann Reynolds favors works of Tschaikovsky in her collection. So it goes — with collections that may specialize in anything-, but which almost invariably in clude Tschaikovsky's Fifth sym phony. There are countless stu dents who have record collections at home, and still more whose collections I don't know of. Maybe Chances are that there is some one in your house who has some good records.
