Indeed, doctors and nurses were heard to exclaim with shak ing heads over the state of af fairs which prompts people to break in new pedal protectors during registration week. Other ills, treated with a char acteristic “nothing new under the sun" attitude by attendants were poison oak, slivers, insect bites, appendicitis, and colds. Despite coughing which has characterized all gatherings about the campus, the service states that along the cold front business is much as usual. Pome No. 170 To you who see the football films, films, Do not rant and roar. It makes no difference what you yell, It will not change the score. —J.W.S. Oregon Instructors Attend Salem Talks Dr. Hugh B. Wood and Mr. Hugh M. Shafer of the school of ■education attended the central and sub-committee meeting of the state central curriculum in Salem September 30. Represen tatives from al! parts of the state attended the all-day session. The committee promotes im provements in curriculums of the schools, advises new courses of study, and encourages growth and development in better teach ing courses. By-Laws Committee Ignored; New Petitions Not Accepted; Cards Necessary to Vote By BOB FRAZIER The Class of 1945, meeting* last night in a packed Villartf assembly, adopted the 50-cent class card as a prerequisite to voting and holding office. Recommendations of the by-laws committee were not hon ored by the assembled freshmen. The committee, which met Wednesday, went on record as approving the free class card for voting, and the subsequent selling of an activity card, in a plan parallel to the present ASUO activity card system. No nominations by petition will be accepted as valid unless certification of the candidates eligibility and intention to run had been filed with Torgeson prior to last night’s meeting. Nominees are: For president: Burdeen Day Ted Yaw For Vice-President: June Hitchcock Hal Locke Win Kelker For Secretary: Gerd Hansen Dorothy Patterson For Treasurer: Jim Dahlquist Stan Hager Lou Felshiem Kenzo Nakagawa This certification and filing of intention provision last night halted numerous nominations from the floor. As the constitu tion provides, only those persons who had filed such eligibility with Torgeson prior to nominations would be accepted as candidates. Explanation of this technicality was printed in the Emerald Thursday at Torgeson’s request. He hoped, he said, to have the legal aspects of such an asesmbly made clear before the meeting, so as to prevent possible dissatisfaction on the part of any classmen, because of a misunderstood legal point. Persons voting for officers, probably the end of next week, and persons running for office must have class cards, which will go on sale tomorrow or Saturday at the educational activ ities office in McArthur court. Bob Morrison and Fritz Giesecke were nominated for presi dent, but their nominations were not honored because of their failure to file eligibility certification and declaration of inten tion to run with Torgeson. > Giesecke, contacted last night, said that his declaration of intention to run was in the mail, but that he did not know if Torgeson had received it. He had not, however, filed a scho lastic certification, he said. At Torgeson’s suggestion he was empowered by a vote of the assembly, to appoint a second by-law committee to draw up further by laws to be submitted to a meeting of the class at some future date. This suggestion was made because of the time the classmen were taking in adopting the by-laws. The meeting, originally scheduled for the music auditorium, was shifted to Gerlinger late yesterday afternoon, after it was discovered that the music auditorium would not be available. All men’s and women’s living organizations were contacted by phone and notified of the change. Persons reporting to the music auditorium were sent to Villard for the meeting. Only possibility of action taken at last night’s meeting being declared invalid, is a decision to that effect by the ASUO judiciary committee, Torgeson said late last night.
