    Arthur Burg Awarded
'Medical Scholarship
Aithur W. Burg, pre-med student, has been named winner
of the Kenneth A. J. Mackenzie scholarship to the University
of Oregon medical school, President Donald M. Erb announced
Friday.
The newly established memorial fund was made possible by
a $250,000 bequest to the University from the will of Mrs.
Mildred Anna Williams, millionairess of New York, Los An
geles, and Monte Carlo. In her
will she stated that the Univer
sity “trustees” could use the
money at their own discretion.
Although Mrs. Williams died in
August. 1939, her will, made at
^Monu C&rlo, was not probated
until Inst March in New York.
The man for whom the fund is
named was the late Kenneth A. J.
Mackenzie, first dean of the Uni
versity medical school in Port
land. It was therefore decided to
establish a $1000 scholarship to
the school for University pre-med
students and a professorship in
surgery at the Portland medical
center.
Later, after the recommenda
tion of Dr. Richard B. Dillehunt,
dean of the medical school, and
President Erb, the scholarship
was broken up into five $200
—^awards. Since this is the first
year there have been awarded,
four of them went to outstanding
students of the Portland school,
one from each class.
The four students named by
David Baird, assistant dean of
the medical school, to receive
these scholarships are James
A. King, Marion Wietz, Clarence
G. Peterson, and Gordon McGow
an. Students to whom these schol
arships are awarded must keep

up the level of their work while
in the Portland school or forfeit
the honor to the currently out
standing member of his class.
Each year a faculty committee
will pick the outstanding pre
med student in Oregon to benefit
from the Mackenzie fund. The
committee this year was com
posed of the following professors:
Dr. Albert E. Caswell, Dr. Har
old Croslund, Professor King,
and Dr. Harry B. Yocom.

ment if the individual happens to
be of a shy nature. The friendli
ness and interest of the Oregon
boys made me forget, very easily,
the dollar lost on the UCLA
game.
The Greeks’ Word
And so it went. A few of the
experiences obtained from the
fraternity houses will long be
remembered. Did you ever hear
the Phi Delts sing ? Call them
“bathless” if you will, they’re
still good! They’re not so bad at
other things, too. They’ve con
tributed a great deal to the Air
Corps and many of their boys are
now flying our very best Air
Corps planes. You shouldn’t miss
the “Keep ’Em Flying!” trick of
the ATO. It starts out with the
shout of “Keep ’Em Flying!!!”
and the plane itself goes all
around the table and where it
goes nobody knows but there’s
no doubt that it went.
If a boy will attend classes be
fore school starts in the morning
and after it stops in the after
noon, you’ve got to hand it to
him. This is just what the boys
(and a girl in each class) are do
ing in the CPT programs, direct
ed by Mr. Frank Sherwin, and
they’re doing all right, too. You
can be sure of that.
Women Okay, Too
Last, but by no means least,
was “The Sweetheart of Sigma
Chi.” It always was my favorite
fraternity song but the way the
Sigma Chi boys sing it, well, one
could never forget it. The Sweet

hospitality committee on the
housing of Oregon alums during

chairman, announced last night.
“We are very grateful for the
assistance offered by the alumni
directors,” Russ Hudson, Home
coming chairman, said last night.
“The fact that all Eugene hotels
and motor courts are already
booked for the weekend makes
the housing of returning alums a
serious problem, and we appre
ciate the alumni directors’ ac
tion.”
The Lane county group will
canvass Eugene to find possible
places for alums to stay. Visiting
with cars by members of the
alumni will be met at the station

heart herself looked mighty pret
ty to me. Betty Anderson, I think
her name was. There’s no doubt
the fraternity boys have excel
lent taste.
The only regret I have in com
ing to the University of Oregon
is that I couldn’t visit more of
the organizations.
The board will be back again in
February of next year to give en

looked like a nice quiet little
game. But the little party of Fri

rough, for ’round 3 p.m. Ken
Jackson staggered into the Pill

Beta pal Andy Jones. The little
blade had run hi mthrough his
shoe, and stuck his foot.
