University Bands
Affected by War
Among other student activities
affected by the war are the Uni
versity concert band and the
ROTC band.
“In the ROTC band we have
three sophomores,” declared John
Stehn, director. “All the rest are
freshmen. The enrollment of the
concert band is 35, the smallest
in years.”
Quality if not quantity is be
ing maintained, Mr. Stehn ex
plained. He went on to say, “The
freshman class gets better every
.year. It used to be that students
were juniors before they were
good enough to play in the band.”
Mr. Stehn also pointed out that
there were probably as (many
/good players on the campus who
could be in the band as those al
ready enrolled, but that the re
serve corps and subsequent heav
ier course requirements keep most
of them out.

Law and order will be kept on
Hallowe’en even if it is neces
sary to call out civilian defense
workers, according' to city Po
lice Chief C. F. Bergman.
“I am going to call captains
of the various areas Of Eugene,
and see if there are enough civil
ian defense trainees ready to
take over the job without calling
on the police reserves,” Berg
man said. “We don't intend to
have another Hallowe’en like
, those of the past three years.”
Bergman believes that the atti
tude of students who have here
tofore been pranksters has
changed, and that they are bound
to be more serious this year.
“Some of the Hallowe’ens we
have had, have been too much
for any citizen to bear,” he said.
“Some of them have been almost
as bad as bombings.”
