    Senior V-7’s
May Remain
Extra Term
Additional plans for the forma
tion of the new navy V-12 classi
fications have been received from
Randall Jacobs, chief of naval
personnel by Dr. Carl F. Kos
sack, armed services representa
tive for the University.
Present V-7 students who, as
of July 1, 1943, have one term or
’ess to complete to meet require
^pients for a bachelor’s degree
may, if they desire, remain on
inactive duty at the college at
which they are now enrolled. En
gineering students may continue
in college as long as they keep
high grades, regardless of the
number of semesters they have
completed.
Extra courses may be carried
while in V-12 if they do not in
terfere with curriculum pre
scribed by the navy. Students
may participate in extracurric
lar activities, including athletics,
if they don’t interfere with reg
ular studies.
Reserve officers may join pre
viously organized' college organi
zations, including fraternities, if
they so desire, but the discipline
standards of the navy will be
maintained, the report empha
^ zed.
The navy will contract for
training, housing, feeding, and
medical care at selected colleges
and universities. The list of col
leges is now being compiled, and
will be soon made available for
publication.

Stars Don’t Twink
. . . They Blink!
Stars don’t twink—they blink.
Yawning away their span of
life, the vast system of stars are
undergoing a slow process of “re
laxtion,” according to a theory
presented by Professor Subrah
manyan Chandrasekhar of the
University of Chicago, and re
leased by the Associated Colle
giate Press.
The stars’ manner of relaxing
is different, to say the least. No
masseur's rhythmic pat—but the
traffic on the heavenly highways
slows down these stellar “bundles
of nerves.”
“Any given star,” Dr. Chand
rasekhar said, “because of occa
sional near misses while passing
other stars, gradually will lose
energy by deflecting slower mov
ing stars from their paths.”
The systems, he said, spend a
“lifetime” becoming relaxed.
Negro Singer Falls Prey
(Continued from page one)
came from New York, supposed
ly from NBC. Olin Downes and
Kirstin Flagstad, musical critic
and singer respectively, were as
sembled at the studio for a Red
Cross broadcast, the voice scold
ed.
Miss Maynor Flustered
They wanted to know why she
wasn’t there, too. Miss Maynor
was flustered', for she knew of no
engagement. Well, the voice con
tinued, everything could be put
right if Miss Maynor sang over
the telephone so that a record
might be made of her voice which
might then be rebroadcast.
The great singer sighed, took
a deep breath, and obliged with
Strauss’ “Zueignung,” while her
Utica audience filed back to its
seats and impatiently waited for
their soloist to return to the
stage.
The next day, of course, the
hoax was discovered, though the
proprietor was not. Miss Maynor
only shook her head and beamed
jovially to the effect that, “It’s
the price of a career.”

Aired KORE
One half-hour program of song
and dance will be presented each
week by Oregon students over sta
tion KORE as a result of a cam
pus-organized scheme to “dress
up the Eugene hotel,’’ which at
tracted the largest crowd Satur
day night since dances began in
February, according to Earle Rus
sell, co-originator of the idea.
Organized by Russell and fel
low-student Frank Bosch, the new
attraction is a campus troupe
which presented two intermission
programs at the hotel during the
course of last Saturday’s dance.
Featuring the quintet, “Four
Knights and a Dream,” composed
of Gene Cecchini, Frank Sardam,
Paul Beard, Don Bridenstine, and
Charlotte Gething, the troupe
was “an overwhelming hit” at its
first performance, Russell declar
ed, and will continue to appear “as
long as the army and navy will
let us.’’
In event of as big a success in
the 10:15-10:45 program over sta
tion KORE, the group looks for
ward to a possible Mutual Net
work hook-up. All entertainment
will be added to or alternated dur
ing the year, with the exception
of the quintet, which will appear
as a regular feature. “They’re
really terrific,’’ Russell comment
ed. “We estimate last Saturday’s
crowd at close to 300.”
Under the direction of Fred
Beckwith, master of ceremonies,
student entertainers will contin
ue to present two programs at
the hotel every Saturday evening.
The first, lasting one-half hour,
will be included in the broadcast,
with the second period of only 10
or 15 minutes coming later in the
evening. Main attractions will be
a conga line, led by Helen Holden,
University junior, who will also
present a dance routine.
Pomona college will train 200
high school graduates in pre-me
teorology.
