Morse Return Speeds Work About Fenton The return last Saturday of Wayne L. Morse, dean of the law school, from the hearings on the longshoremen’s dispute in San Francisco has greatly increased the activities at Fenton hall this week. All first year law classes have been turned over to the dean and he is doing five weeks of advance work on his own classes before leaving for Washington, D. C., next Sunday evening to at tend a meeting of the war labor board. Although Dean Morse will fin ish his winter term work at the school of law there is a possibil ity that he may take a leave of absence spring term, depending upon the program of the war la bor board. West Coast Work It is also possible, said the dean, that much of his work with ard will be here on the west coast. At the time of his ap pointment the understanding be tween him and Frances Perkins, secretary of labor, was that he was at all times to be available for arbitration of longshoremen’s disputes. ‘‘No, this is not a job with a salary,” the dean said. “It is a war appointment, but we are paid for the days that we’re handling a case.” •*'''*■ Briefs and records on the case of the Crown flour mills vs. the cereal workers’ union involving a question on the vacation clause of their contract were studied last Sunday by Dean Morse, at which time he handed down a de cision on the case. Longshore Arbitration As the arbitrator for the pres ent San Francisco Longshore men’s wage dispute he is now preparing a report on that case, the longest hearing in his expe rience. Evidence in the case con sists of 2300 pages of transcripts, 250 exhibits, and several briefs, he said. O. J. Hollis, professor of law, who has been the acting dean during Dean Morse’s absence, willp^be recommended to fill that position again if the work of the labor board should necessitate a leave of absence, said Dr. Morse. In answer to questions about the near future the dean was not certain, but he did know that, “I will always make Oregon my home and Eugene my permanent residence.” He fully intends to , continue his thirteen years of i work at the University law I school. j Free Food to Lure Scribes to Dinners All Emerald workers of the business, editorial, news, and sports staffs who have signed the “intention-to-come” paper posted in the journalism "shack” I will attend a free luncheon or banquet tomorrow.
