Who are you?’’ Persons attending the annual Hello dance and president’s re ception Saturday evening in Mc Arthur court will wear tags bearing these words, Don Swink, ^general chairman, revealed Mon day in describing plans for the <dance. This tag featre is new, Swink said, and is designed to make it easy for new students to get ac quainted with each other and with older students and faculty. Art Holman’s orchestra will play for the annual dance, which, Swink emphasized, is especially for new students, although oth ers are welcome to attend. Kwa ma and Skull and Dagger, sopho more service honoraries, will aid the new students in meeting President Donald M. Erb and oth er campus officials. Traditionally the first all-campus social event of the year, the Hello dance will be an informal no-date affair. Winnie Green is in charge of securing patrons and patronesses, Kenny Bowes is in charge of the tags that dancers will wear, and Jim Carney will be in charge of the floor. DEFENSE AIDE George Godfrey, well-known director of the University News Bureau, is now working in Port land as a defense drive assistant. Cecil Snyder has temporarily taken his place. (Story Page 1.) DEAN STAFFORD (Continued from page one) He was a member of Phi Beta Kappa, Sigma Xi, and the Amer ican Chemical society, and was a fellow in the American Associa tion for the Advancement of Sci ence. He was immediate past president of the Eugene Rotary club, in which organization he had been active for a number of years. He is the author of several monographs and textbooks, among them the text that was used in his courses in first year general chemistry. He was a member of several important University committees. Dean Stafford was the son-in law of the late Dean John Straub, who served the University for more than 50 years as dean of men and head of the Greek de partment. Infirmary Opens Early for Anxious Student Boarders Using last year’s record of 1216 illnesses as an indication of what to expect, the University infirmary opened September 16, several days earlier than usual, this year. Nancy Ames proved the pre caution a good one when she registered as the initial case on September 17. Since her entrance into the sick ward eight other cases have been treated. Morris Stein, Gertrude Puziss, Pegge Klepper, Jane Owsley, Margaret Barrett, Florence Hamilton, and Mary Hamlin have all registered. Miss Hamlin was rushed to the Sacred Heart hospital for an emergency apendicitis operation last Monday morning. The hospital will remain open all Freshman week and students are earnestly requested to ob serve the visiting hours of 2 to 4 in the afternoon and 7 to 8 in the evening. The clinic on the lower floor will be open from 8 to 12 in the morning and 1 to 5 in the afternoon on week days, 8 to 12 on Saturday, and will be closed on Sundays. These visiting hours will be strictly enforced except in the case of an extreme emer gency. Last year’s number of 1216 sicknesses set a new high for the new hospital building, which has been open since 1936. The largest number treated in any previous year was 747 in 1939.

Members of the sorority plan to buy the house, and some day will build at this location. Mean while, much was done to the building this summer, and more improvements are planned for the near future. Since the occupation of their new home in the early part of the summer, members have had all the furniture re-upholstered, have had the house painted in side and out, and are planning to have the lawn landscaped this winter. Accommodations for 18 girls are available in the new house, which was used as a boys’ board ing house last year. This is a few less than their old building, but the girls believe the location of the new house is superior to the old. Zeta Tau Alpha formerly was located in Mary Spiller hall.
