Killing a Rumor a Day
(Editor’s note: The purpose of this feature is to repudiate
or verify rumors circulated on the campus. Information found
in this column is isssued by the student defense council.)
It has been rumored around the campus that junior ROTC men
would be called into active army duty next October 6.
This is not true, according to Col. R. M. Lyon, head of the
University ROTC department, and no official word to this effect
has been received here. As far as is known at present, juniors
will finish their school year.
House Heads
ToTalkBonds
At4:l5Today
All house presidents and man
agers will meet at 4:15 today on
the third floor of Gerlinger for
explanation of the defense sav
ings bonds campaign yvhich will
get under way on the campus
this week.
The meeting had been sched
uled for 207 Chapman, but was
moved to Gerlinger because the
“The Last Laugh,” a film spon
sored by the. educational activi
ties board, was slated for that
room.
The house executives will be in
structed in plans of the state rep
resentatives of the bond commit
tee, who are expected on the
campus within the next few days.
They will then call meetings in
their houses to ascertain the pos
sible amounts that may be
pledged. An all-campus group
will determine the potential re
sources of the entire campus.
When state representatives ar
rive on the campus they will ask
for pledges, not for the money
itself. The pledges will be
amounts from individual mem
bers, subscribed in the name of
the house.

Skull, Dagger
Reveal Plans
For War Jig
UO students will dance for de
fense Saturday night after the
Oregon-OSC game at a Skull and
Dagger sponsored dance in Ger
linger hall at 9:30, Bob Ballard,
chairman, announced last night.
"All profits from the dance will
be turned over to the faculty de
fense committee to use as they
wish,” Ballard said. “All-out co
operation of the entire stuclent
body is urged, because this is one
way in which every one can help
in a cause vital to America.”
Cancellation
The dance previously scheduled
for Saturday night in the Masonic
temple, will not take place be
cause of the defense dance, it was
said.
This is the first time Gerlinger
hall has been used for an all-cam
pus event since its employment
for student body assemblies was
banned last week by the Univer
sity defense council. Use of the
building for the defense dance
has been sanctioned.
Committee
Dance Chairman Ballard, ap
pointed yesterday by Frank Lock
wood, president of Skull and
Dagger, sophomore men’s service
honorary, announced the follow
ing committee members: Jim
Bennison, Jim Thayer, publicity;
Oge Young, decorations; Ran
Potts, patrons; Jim Harrison,
floor', and A1 Sellars, clean-up.
Orchestra and ticket price for
the dance have not yet been an
nounced.
Law Men Get
(Continued from page one)
members are “conservatively esti
mated” at 40,000. There are 62
men’s national social fraternities
and 34 women’s social sororities,
not to mention the almost num
berless honoraries and local fra
ternities, the report points out.
The plan deals with methods
cf contacting these organizations
for defense savings purposes. The
United States is divided into dis
tracts, and the districts into col
leges and universities. These are
divided into separate organiza
tions which might have funds
that could be converted to de
fense bonds.
Quotas
A quota system would need to
be established, and a program
would have to be worked out to
make college students even more
aware of the need for the funds,
the report says. Possible results
of a thorough campaign “would
be hard to imagine.” One of the
principal aims of the program •
would be to take advantage of
the "loose money” in the classes
and other organizations.
