Minister Sees Jap Relocation By JEAN LAWRENCE • “Sooner or later we’re going to have to solve the problem of how our American doctrines of freedom and fair play relate to other races,” stated Rev. Mr. Wesley Nicholson, of the First Congregational church, during his talk of “Loyal and Disloyal Jap anese” at the Joint AAUW and YWCA-sponsored program Wed nesday afternoon. Rev. Nicholson was a mem ber of the Pasadena Civilian Defense committee at the time of the American Japanese evacu ation, and is a member of the na tional committee of the Congre gational church on the relocation of the Japanese. Japs Adjust to U.S. “The history of the Japanese on the west coast is one of large scale exploitation on the part of the white people and one of very difficult adjustment on the part of the Japanese,” Rev. Nicholson said. “This struggle for accept ance was almost won at the time of the evacuation,” he continued, “which came largely because the Japanese were huddled together in a few small areas, one-fourth of the entire American Japanese population being centered in Los Angeles county alone. “If the government has its way, the disloyal Japanese will be sent to such camps as Tule lake while the loyal Japanese will be relo cated all over the country, thus relieving the congested areas.” However, Rev.

Emphasis still is being laid on offensive combinations and ball handling in order to offset the disadvantage of height which will probably be apparent when the two teams meet. According to advance information received, the Fee’s squad will average well over six feet. Tall Firs Backbones of the independent aggregation will probably be Carl Burtch, 6-foot, 4-inch cen ter, who starred for Pacific uni versity, Bob Rankin, a member of last year's Bradford Clothiers, who won the Oregon AAU cham pionship, and Eldon Gregg', star last year for Byerly's Sporting Goods. Portland National league champs. The Fee’s team is coached by Len Yandle, one-time star for Gonzaga, who also coached at St. Martin's college, in Washington. According to Hobson, Yandle is a cagey and basketball-wise fel low, with lots of experience be hind him, and we may expect to see plenty of smooth working ag gressiveness from his men. Med School Game Saturday night the Oregon five meets the Medical school quintet. They have a team well braced by several college stars, according to advance data, and are expect ed to be in top condition. An add ed incentive for them will be the fact that it is always a feather in the Med school’s cap if their team can slip one over on “big brother.” Both games will start at S p.m. Capers Rehearsal All participants in skits for Coed Capers are asked to come to Gerlinger at 7 p.m. tonight for a final dress rehearsal. Council NamesMary Bentley To Representative Position Harry Skerry, recently appointed senior representative on the executive council, was elected first vice-president of the ASUO at the executive council meeting Wednesday afternoon. Previous to Skerry’s election, it was decided by the council to select someone from the council or from the nominations handed in for the position of senior representative. Skerry will replace Oglesby Young, junior ROTC man, who resigned be Sail Lake Flyers Try UO Upset The Salt Lake City air base team will invade the campus Fri day morning preparatory to the game to be held on Hayward field Saturday afternoon with the G.I. Ducks. The game is scheduled for 3 o’clock. Sgt. Don Galbreath, former Oregon State man, will bring with him 38 men who are mostly former college stars. Bob Ingalls, 1941 all-American from Univer sity of Michigan, will be the cap tain out on the field. Gil Thomp son, a 210-pound right tackle, played pro ball for Milwaukee; John Sambrough, quarterback weighing 180, another all-Ameri can; Bob Perugini, all time Penn State guard, tips the scales at 195, and Ed Dusek, fullback from Texas A&M, are just some of the fellows the ASTU team will be up against. With a few other players of about equal caliber the line comes in at 195 pounds and the back field drops to 180. Although this will be the last game of the season for the ASTU team, Lt. R. G. Davis says, "This will be the most colorful game since the UCLA game. Our team is ready and raring to go and will be playing a lot smoother and faster game than any of the pre vious ones.” (Please turn to pane four) Ducks Ponder Way Home For Yuletide Vacation By COURTNEY SWANDER With the end of final exams on December 16 the biggest quiz of all for Oregon students will begin—how to get home for the Christmas vacation. The holiday season this year comes at a time when transportation facilities are overtaxed carrying the load of a nation at war. Thousands of soldiers and sailors will be using the trains and buses to return to their homes for Christmas. Men en gagecl in production and supply are traveling in the interest of the war effort. More Hiding Trains Cuts this fall in gasoline ra tions are forcing many more peo ple to ride trains and buses than ever before. Under these condi tions approximately 1600 Univer sity students will leave Eugene the third week in December. On the bus situation, Pacific Greyhound agents said all buses are traveling to capacity and any great increase in travel coming suddenly could not be taken care of. No reservations are required, all space being first come, first served. No Extra Buses Although extra buses are not now available, Greyhound men said that if students report their day of departure and direction (Please turn to page four) cause ne out not reel He had time to fulfill the duties of the office.

Last night thirty coeds from Laurel lodge crept through the grass on the butte, using commando tactics to avoid the reservoir guard, and with a gal lon of sunshine paint and a pair of hands for each girl they did a real job of covering the glaring orange coat put there by Oregon State rooters from Corvallis. The revenge task completed, the girls marched down the butte and up Willamette street chant ing the glory of Oregon with tho Alma Mater victory songs.
