A letter from Miss Merl Clasey, who teaches at the University during summer sessions, enclosed the following article from a Minneapolis, Minnesota, newspaper: “If you happen to be heading west soon, take with you such items as your birth certificate, lodge or association membership cards, anything for complete identification. Military officials are clamping down Miss Clasey, a special teacher with the Minneapolis city schools and teacher in remedial reading at the clinical school at the University in the summer, was puzzled by the article and asked the reason for it. Oregonians wonder too. Thus far, the “clamping down” has not been felt to any great extent.
