painting; and David J. McCosh,
assistant professor of drawing

This is the second service proj

USO. The school has had other
requests for similar work from
the Tillamook blimp base, Camp
Adair, and other camps.
Students Awake
Professor Vincent commented:
“We feel the work is a legitimate
one at the time. The students are
keenly aware of contributing to
the war effort and are eager to
do it.
Work on the murals was con
sidered as part of the regular class
assignments in upper division
painting.
Good Taste Misplaced

LIZARDS, which we’ll bet you
never thought of! Neither had
one mild character who sudden
ly found himself confronted with
one of the beasts. It was large
(well, about nine inches), and it
bit its benefactor. Its benefactor,
slightly irked, squashed it.
After being treated for reptile
bite at the infirmary, the student
of nature lore trotted over to the
zoology department to find out
if he was going to live.
For the information of other
students of wild life, this indi
vidual reports that he was told
there are NO poisonous reptiles
in Oregon . . . EXCEPT rattle
snakes.
Duck Hurlers

trundled the 1942 champs one
season ago to again make life
miserable for the hapless Van
dals—and before a home-town
gathering. Right off the bat they
walked over Idaho pitching for a
15 to 5 victory, and then again
behind sparkling hurling on Beg
leries’ part, white-washed the lo
cal losers, 7 to 0 in the second
game.
But those are merely last
year’s records. It’s a brand new
season for 1943 . . . and those re
ports from Moscow seem to blow
in pretty regularly and convinc
ingly that the V-men are strict
ly out for blood this time.
Hitting for our Ducks in the
first two conferences conflicts
bordered on the erratic side.
Some of the veterans came
through wonderfully, in fact,
'way above expectation, but oth

grind on term papers or start to
add those finishing touches to
their theses, seniors should con

contest features prizes of $150,

outstanding senior orators.
Manuscripts should be submit

the speech offices in Friendly

department staff is eager to help
the speakers, according to Mr.
Dahlberg;. they will give encour
agement, aid in ironing out
faults, help with idea presenta
tion, and in any other way possi
ble.
Speakers in the contest, which
will be held in the music audito
rium, will dress in their com
mencement caps and gowns.

The water’s fine for bathing, and that’s
important. But it is even more impor
tant to wear the best looking swim suit
you have ever seen. Cole of California
has a perfectly scrumptious new style
in raspberry, powder blue and yellow. The blue has a glossy
sheen to it . . . beautiful lines . . . fitted jersey lining. I
can't say enough about them, you’ll have to see for your
self, at Russell’s.
