Charles Delzell Gets
Stanford Scholarship
Charles Delzell, graduate as
sistant in social science, received
a Switzer scholarship to Stanford
university last week. The schol
arship will give him an opportun
ity to work toward his thesis and
master's degree in modern Euro
pean history, next school year.
Mr. Delzell's thesis topic at the
University of Oregon involved
the spread of fascism in France
after 1930. He is not certain
whether he will continue in this
subject or not while at Stanford.

Fifth-Column Attack
Staged on ROTC Drill
Stiil riled at the anonymous
caller who almost sabotaged their
drill period Thursday by tele
phoning campus houses and an
nouncing to unsuspecting fresh
men that the drill had been can
celled, angered officers of the lo
cal ROTC staff continued their
relentless hunt today for the
phony ’phonist.
The unknown culprit, accord
ing to unimpeachable sources
whose identity can not be re
vealed for military reasons, called
nine fraternity houses Thursday
noon and, after falsely identifying
himself as an ROTC sergeant,
told the freshman who answered
to announce in his house that the
drill had been cancelled because
of “weather conditions” (it was
raining bad as anything). Suspi
cious upperclassmen, how'ever,
uncovered the hoax by calling
the ROTC office to verify the re
port, which they were wont to
disbelieve. And that is why the
ROTC staff is angry.
“It doesn’t bother us too much
if a few of the boys don’t show
up for drill, especially in wet
weather,” said an officer. “But
when telephone calls come pour
ing in at the rate of four a min
ute for twenty minutes, that’s go
ing too far! My right ear is still
ringing from listening to that
same line: ‘Is there a drill to
day?’ In fact,” he said, as two
large tears rolled over his cheeks,
“if that happens once more I’ll
resign!”
If anyone tries this little trick
again, we ain’t responsible for
what happens.
