FDR Honors
Oregon Printer
By MARGARET BROOKE
“With gratitude to John Henry
Nash,” was the inscription signed
by President Franklin D. Roose
velt on the book “The Times Sup
ports Mr. Roosevelt” written by
Sheldon F. Sackett, publisher of
the Coos Bay Times, and present
ed to John Henry Nash, printer.
The paper used in the book is
hand made and has the water
mark of Mr. Nash.
Has President’s Letters
“I never met Mr. Roosevelt,”
sSTd Mr. Nash, “But I have had
several letters from him during
the past years. I am looking for
ward to meeting him some day.”
Mr. Nash was in Portland when
Mr. Sackett asked him to read
the book ovar. “I liked the book
immediately,” said Mr. Nash, “I
told him I would like to print his
book, and he told me to go
ahead.”
Rare Book
“It is a very rare book,” he
went on to say. “I printed only 15
copies. Mr. Sackett has four and
the rest are scattered around
among friends. Dr. Aurela H.
TJeJphardt, president of Mills col
lege in Oakland, California, sent
my copy to Mr. Roosevelt. I was
very honored to have him sign it
and return it to me.”
This book will remain in the
Nash collection in the library
with the rest of Mr. Nash’s col
lection of rare books.

Kappa’s cute Shirley Beller
pulled a hot one this week. It
seems that she comes from “down

with all these new American gad

downstairs floor, she didn’t even
know how to turn the darn thing
on! What’ll happen when she
tries to turn on the washing ma

The annual law school football
game is to be played today at the
intramural field' at 2 p.m. The
starting lineup for the third year

Leon Humpstead, M. J. Wormser,
Mr. and Mrs. Phipps, Steve Foul
check, and K. J. O’Connell, head
coach. The second year men are
paced by a line that averages 218
pounds. Carmackal’s weight has
never been accurately plumbed,
and “Uncle Bulgy” Meldrum is a
stalwart on defense. Marcus Win
kler, “Ulcers” Lowry, “Kremel”
Walker and Rookie Rodman com
pose the team. Hea coach is
‘£lunga Din” Morris, who will di
rect the plays by wire from Chi
cago. The game is due to take
at least three hours due to un
limited substitutions . . . that will
be needed.
The SAEs had a swell dance
last weekend . . . just exactly
like the Delts had two years ago
. . . even to the programs and
“gas masks.”
