PE Teacher Will Discuss Defense Play What is being done in the way of play for men in the army, navy, and air corps will be de scribed in a recreation seminar, led by Florence D. Alden, profes sor of physical education, Tues day, November 4, from 9 to 11 a.m. First hand information will be furnished by two famous stu dents. Kester “Mike" Hale, who deceived his master’s degree from the school of physical education at the University, and is now recreation coordinator in Astoria, will tell what is being done in his district. Don Orput, recreation representative of the federal se curity agency in Oregon, will de scribe the work being done by that national agency. “Anyone who is interested in hearing about these activities and meeting the speakers is invited to come,” said Miss Alden. The class, which is studying the way recreation leadership has tried to meet the problems aris Hg from changing times, visited the migrant farm labor camp at Dayton, near McMinnville. There they saw the homes, clinic, laun dry, and the nursery school. Frosh Daub At Alum Fete As an innovation during Home coming weekend, freshmen will skid down the yellow “O” atop Skinner’s butte on their paint splashed tin pants to precede the annual frosh guarding of the ^school landmark, Russ Hudson, Homecoming general chairman, announced Monday. Ordinarily this is done only during Junior Weekend, but it will be done this year, Hudson declared, to give visiting alums a more striking picture of the “O.” In charge of freshmen guard ing the “O” will be Vic Atiyeh, guard on the frosh football team, Hudson said. He will work with the Homecoming committee and the freshman class, led by Ted Yaw. The “O” will be painted a bright yellow Friday, November 28, and will be guarded continu ously until the alumni fete is over. Guarding will be done in shifts, with at least 15 freshmen present at one time to prevent mutilation by other parties. Last year the guard was circumvented and the “O” streaked over. The contest has covered a pe riod of three weeks during which two representatives from each women’s living organization on the campus have been invited to a series of desserts. Finalists were chosen October 27. Art Wiggin, social chairman, was in charge of the contest.

If it isn’t November . . . and the general feeling right about now seems to be something to the effect that “I don’t want to set the world on fire, I just want to start a flame in Dr. Noble’s grader-for-History- of- Modern Europe’s heart.” . . . Especially after seeing “Citi zen Kane” ... it was an ex cellent mo’om pitch, but it kind of gave us the ooks . . . and we certainly don’t want to set T.W.O.F. and have 60 mil lion like Mr. Kane. . . . Gee, 50 million would be plenty. . . . We also checked “Honky Tonk” . . . gwacious, such goobers! . In the midst of all this drivel we’d like to wax serious for a spell and extend condo lences to the Sigma Alpha Mus for the unfortunate thing that happened last week . . . from Mr. and Mrs. Newt and Patter and all the Side. Seen back at the U (among our souveniers, as usual) were Chi Psi Bob Haines, Pi Phis Winifred Wilhelm, Kit Ritter, and Marget Parker, Kappa Jayne Doyle, et all. . . . Haines dropped in at the law school jig, and not hearing any moosic, asked the closest available male when he was going to start playing his trombone. . . . The man turned out to be a law school prof. . . .Not very neatly.done. Come vittle time some Sun day, why not a Collich Side dinner. . . That’s putting it a bit blunt but they’re really good. . . . See you on the late shift. . . .
