    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.”

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.

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.
