By NORMA TREVORROW We dreamed of spangled banners And singing, marching men, Of plunging bows, and cannons And shudders from stern to stem, Of burning skies, and whites of eyes Of vigils, long and tense. We didn’t know we’d also Pick walnuts for defense. Probably, at the very moment you read this, some poor little SAE is being bonked on the dome by a bad old, awful old, dirty old walnut. Yes, another picking party started out l!!litl[!l!l!IU!lll!!ll!l!llUl -—' ~ wiio muiliuig Via, CliC | '^)dea of Milton “Dutch" Schultz | and Clinton Childs. It includes the whole of the SAE house, cozily crammed into a truck and a trail \ er and, with shining, happy young faces, they went booming off for eight hours of picking. It’s hard i work, no doubt, but still sounds like a heck of a lot of fun. Agriculture Department Under what better conditions could any' living organization work—not only for the war but for a few funds for the rest of that banister or a front door of sumpin’. Ruth Collins is in charge of the agriculture part of our war effort, so when you want to plan a picking party, see her for in formation. We see Nelda Rohrbach’s The ta Chi, Chuck Putnam, fresh from pre-flight school at St. ^clary’s in California in his hand some navy blue uniform with gold stripes, heavy trench coat, and hat, nonchalantly walking about the campus while the girls take one look, dash off on their hands and knees, swing around on the trees a while, pulling out tufts of hair, grab a boulder, bury their faces in it, and si-i-gh-h ... It makes us feel just like Thursdays -—a little before one. Dressing Uniforms Speajting of uniforms, the fe males, too, cut a pretty figure in their supervisor uniforms in sur gical dressing. Incidentally, this chapter is certainly an excellent example of how successful cam pus war work can be. For the Oregon coed, this Red Cross work is a real opportunity to do con structive good. Bandages will be &lneeded soon in great numbers— and now is the time to help. If you’d rather sew, the work is just as pleasant and impor tant. It can be found in the same place, the second floor of Chap man. There’s no reason why ev ery girl shouldn’t do her part right here on the campus. You with your nimble fingers and quick mind you can see that this is your appropriate war job. Stitch Sessions Don’t forget that both Red Cross divisions, surgical dressing and sewing will hold their ses sions this weekend on Friday from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m. and from 9:30 a.m. and 10 a.m. to 12 on Saturday. It’s nice to learn that half of 4^. the profits from Coed Capers and w the Nickel hop will go to the service scholarship fund, soon to make its debut on the campus. Watch for it in the headlines. It will be big and exciting and help ful to the war, to .the school, and, guess who—to you. Recorder Marries The former Grace Griggs, re corder in the registrar’s office for the past 12 years, was married last week to James Blackford in Walla Walla, Washington, it was revealed when a letter from her was received at the registrar's office.

Dune Wimpress Between the Lines (Continued from page two) fell in line, and took her out for a coke. His being Milt Gumb'ert, the son of a Portland furrier, may or may not have prompted the mistake. And So On At and rate, Schwan, who did n’t realize that the girl who left was the girl he had booked for the evening, felt that he had been stood up, so returned to the house. Milt took the girl to the Igloo Saturday night. Friend Schwan went to Portland for the weekend. Another Pi Kap, John Todd, is about to plarjt his pin—on a girl, too—but he hesitates at the thought of being mill-raced, be cause he can’t swim. His girl can, and he wonders if they could throw her in, instead. No Hair Now Kappa Sig Jim Snyder former ly sported a Hollywood hair cut.
