Dr. Quirinus Breen, assistant pro fessor of social science and his tory, wouldn’t miss being on hand to hear Russ Morgan and band swing out at the Soph Whisk erino tonight.

Going to Drop In “My nephew isn’t a very good correspondent,” he admitted rue fully. “However, his father wrote to say that Pearson would be in town with the band and will stop at the house to see us.” His nephew started in music early, Dr. Breen remembers. Nine years ago, when Dr. and Mrs. Breen last saw him, he was well along as a trombonist. Musical Career “He has always wanted to make music his career,” Dr. Breen declared. “He should do well, too, since both his parents are musicians.” DeJager was born in Grand Rapids, Michigan, and attended the University of Cincinnati. Dr. Breen estimates that he has been with Russ Morgan’s band about two years, “I wonder if he will remember us,” Dr. Breen mused.

DEANNA DURBIN in 'Nice Girl?7 with FRANCHOT TONE and WALTER BRENNAN Maguire Talks To Law School Portland Attorney Explains Workings Of Bar Association Robert F. Maguire, Portland attorney and president of the Ore gon Bar association spoke Thurs day morning before the law school student body and faculty on “The Lawyer and the Bar.” Dealing specifically with the functions of the American bar as sociation who sponsored his talk, Mr. Maguire stated: “The main good that the legal profession can contribute to mod ern life is the knowledge it has of the causes and principles which underlie stated rules of conduct.” He deplored the lack of inter est of many lawyers in not fa miliarizing themselves with all phases of laws. The American bar association is divided into sections covering all phases of law. Each group is composed of men whose specialty is a certain field of law. Meetings are held by these var ied groups for the purpose of an alyzing statutes, making correc tions in laws, and determining what legislative policies should be pursued by the association. The decisions are compiled and made available to all state and local bar societies. “Lawyers are the guides of any civilization. The bar association has undertaken the duty of at tempting to see that the funda mental rights of citizens are pro tected,” Mr. Maguire declared.

Some of them have been purchasing them to use as sport coats, but this is entirely wrong. Dinner jackets should not be worn before 6 o’clock, and then the only proper type is that with a shawl collar. White coats with out a shawl collar are appro priate only when worn as part of a white suit. Research Bureaumen Near End of City Job By FRED TIMMEN With a year and a half of work completed, 50,000 ordinances in dexed, classified, appealed and amended, the bureau of munici pal research and service is enter ing' its last year in codifying Portland’s 79,000 city ordinances. Under the direction of Herman Kehrli, director of the bureau, the work is being carried on in Portland. Thirty-seven WPA workers and five non-WPA su pervisors, three of them Oregon graduates, are handling the task. This is the largest number of ordinances and regulations in any of the 40 Oregon cities whose constitutions have thus far been revised by the bureau. “We have indexed 50,000 of the Inactive ordinances, those that are not regulatory, but dealing with past situations,” Mr. Kehrli said in a recent interview. Virgil Langtree, ’34; Tony Amato, and Eugene Niel, ’40, are supervisors on the Portland job. Charters of eleven other Oregon cities are also being revised and codified. Numerous outdated and out moded laws have been unearthed in the course of the five-year functioning of the bureau. For instance, an ordinance passed in 1900 in Seaside and never re pealed makes it illegal to ride bi cycles on the sidewalk without providing them, with a burning lantern. Social Chairmen Plan Organization Social chairmen of men’s living organizations made plans for a second meeting Tuesday and dis cussed campus social affairs at a meeting Thursday in the men’s lounge of Gerlinger hall. The group will elect officers at the next meeting at 4 o’clock Tuesday, April 22, on the third floor of Gerlinger, and make plans for a permanent organiza tion.
