'Petnembe/i Pea'll Jlanlto*' Defense Bond Sales Plans Completed; Oregon May Set Pace for U. S. Colleges By RAY SCHRICK ^^Possibility that the University of Oregon will set the pace for more than one million college and university students of the nation became imminent last night as ASUO President Lou Torgeson announced complete plans for a campus-wide defense bond and Red Cross drive to start next week.

Charles Sprague and E. Palmer Hoyt, head of Oregon defense bond sales. The plan presents a nation-wide chart of the organization. A com plete outline, showing direct “line of attack,” is now in Wash ington, D. C., and awaits final okay which would put it into op eration for every institution of higher learning in the United States. Russ Hudson, junior in business administration, has been appoint ed chairman of the University drive, Torgeson announced. He will be assisted by a committee of five, including Ann Reynolds, Marge Dibble, Martin Schedler, Steve Worth, and Ray Schrick. Buy a bond and build for the future could well be the theme as the campaign swings into ac tion, for each function enlisting student support will offer value returned through dances, carni vals, or other attractions. The bonds themselves will serve as in vestment to be cashed in at some future date. This campaign will touch ev ery student and every living or ganization on the University campus, giving each student an opportunity to play some part in national defense “speed up" pro duction. Exact opening date of the drive will be announced in Tuesday morning’s Emerald, Torgeson an nounced. Seniors Plan Free Ball senior Dance To Aid Drive For Defense The 1942 senior ball will be free.
