False Alarm
After the fire all the houses have
started
To take out insurance in manner
whole-hearted.
It will seem sort of silly, the work
they go to,
If the old law of averages only
comes through.

Employment Secretary
Plays Best Friend* Role
Independents
Discuss Future
Several matters pertaining to
the organization of all indepen
dent students on the campus in
the near future were discussed by
non-Greek presidents at a meet
ing last night at the College Side.
However, until official recogni
tion of the movement has been
received from the office of Presi
dent Erb no information can be
divulged, according to Wini
Green, chairman of last night’s
gathering.
Sanction of plans for the asso
ciation is expected within the

full details of organization and

was announced.
News!Docs Bedded
At (JO Pill Palace
Others occupying Health Ser
vice beds Wednesday were: Eve
lyn Lamb, Jean Spearow, Dorothy
Walthers, Patricia Mead, Shirley

Maurice O’Connell, Urgel “Slim”
Wintermute, Fred Karlson, Dan

Is it news when a doctor takes
his own advice? Dr. Lisle Wyatt
of the Campus Capsule Camp has
done it; he’s been gracing an in
firmary bed for five days. One
such case might be thought an
exception, but Dr. Marian G.
Hayes, assistant University phy
sician, confined herself for a
couple days this week, so maybe
it isn’t news.
STUDENT GUIDE
Miss Janet Smith, employment
secretary, and Edith Pierson,
assistant, are shown at their
desks at the student employment
service. Miss Smith is adviser to
the cooperative houses and friend
and helper of working students.
She also assists graduating stu
dents to get suitable positions.
Jumbo Rally
Set for 28th
As an innovation during the
1942 Homecoming festivities a
rally and mix will be presented
Friday night, November 28, cul
minating with a variety show and
informal dance. The variety show
will feature the best of campus
talent.
The snowball rally will make a
tour of the campus, picking up
various house members on the
way, and then proceed to McAr
thur court.
All persons interested in en
tertaining during the Home
coming variety show should
appear for auditions today at 4
p.m. in the alumni room of Ger
linger hall. Those unable to ap
pear should get in touch with
the committee chairmen.
Spotlights will be thrown on
the Igloo during the performance.
After the show students will go
to Gerlinger hall for an informal
dance.
Jobs for 852 students were
obtained this term by an effi
cient staff in the employment
secretary’s office. Secretary
Janet Smith plays the role of
“best friend’’ to all students
who come to her in search of
jobs.
The graduate placement of
fice of the University, al
though only five years old, has
rendered distinctive service to
Oregon students and alumni.
Figures computed during a
typical school year, 1939-40,
reveal a total of 3,802 jobs
filled, a total income of
$63,897 returned to the
workers.
Many of these were odd jobs;
all provided greater possibilities
for continuing educational pur
suits. During the same year Miss
Smiths phone rang 5.962 times,
and 8,391 callers presented them
selves at her desk.
Although a conference room
was added last year where em
ployers may interview prospec
tive employees, the office is still
housed in the campus YMCA
house where it had its founda
tion. According to an article
which Miss Smith wrote in Jan
uary, 1941, the present facilities
of the office are “inadequate.’
“Another drawback of the of
fice,” she wrote, “is that we have
to refuse many jobs because the
students who are graduating lack
experience.” All seniors are urged
by Miss Smith to file their ap
plications and letters of recom
mendation now for positions
upon graduation.
No jobs are handled through
the office that pay less than 35
cents an hour. The number of
students who earn part or all of
their way through the services
of Miss Smith’s office constitute
about 60 per cent of the total en
rollment.
