-Mrs. Bryant Finds Job Thrilling, Broadening Being a housekeeper, mother, adviser, program supervisor, and hostess is all a part of a day’s work for Mrs. J. D. Bryant, who, with her husband, directs the activities of Westminster house. She is likely to be called from a job of dishwashing to greet a visitor from some church. Or she may be ironing when she is required to advise a committee on a proposed plan. And just as she is ready to sit down and read a paper, a student may come dash FBI Again to Conduct Annual Police School University of Oregon students should be on their best behavior when the Federal Bureau of In vestigation descends on the cam pus for a week during the fall season.

Then Stop at the POLAR BEAR for a cup of HOT CHOCOLATE • THE POLAR BEAR 99 W. at Moss mg m ueiween uiasses leu uci some insurmountable problem that is weighing on his mind. Mrs. Bryant, however, is calm and meets all these situations with poise and understanding. She likes her many-sided job because * it is a “wonderful developer” and keeps one’s mind more agile than most occupations. She and her husband are in their tenth year as resident di rectors of the Westminster house. Before that time they were en gaged in community organiza tion work which led them to Eu gene. But just as they were ready to start activities in connection with the University the depres sion changed their course. The most thrilling part of her work, Mrs. Bryant declares, is to watch the students grow in their sense of values and see them form life philosophies. She likes the “home” part better than the “program” phase of her work— the association with the student age group and the sharing of their ideas and viewpoints. When questioned as to what she would like to see changed in the present Westminster set-up she replied that the one thing she desired was to acquaint more students, no matter what their church preference is, with the many and varied activities spon sored by the Westminster group.

Wounded RO TC Cadets Gallantly Carry On* By TED GOODWIN The sight of wounded men trudging before the ROTC drill shed Thursday bore grim evidence that it doesn't pay to try to get out of military with an infirmary excuse. One freshman stood draped between his crutches while his best red toes curled limply from a plaster cast. Still another was wearing a shoe on one foot and an iodine saturated bandaee on the other. According to Dave Knox and Bernie King, cadet officers in charge of the convalescent class, there were 25 “sick, lame, and lazy" victims in their care Thurs day. In order to enroll in this class, a student must have an excuse from the infirmary stating that he is physically unable to par ticipate in active drill. Instead of drilling in their regular com panies, these students hear a lec ture on what is going on outside. Those that possibly can try to put the theories into practice. Cases typical of the class Thursday were recent pneumonia recoveries, an ingrown toenail, wrenched knees, broken legs, broken arms, intestinal flu vic tims, and one student who couldn’t wear a uniform because of a boil on his neck.
