Travel'Clamp ’ Unnoticed
Evidently easterners are being warned that a lot of red
tape will be involved if they come out west. 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.
OSC Dean

Workers signed cards pledging a

is to be purely voluntary under
