Brutality of Fascists (Continued from t>age one) quent, empty words she heard. “The war in Spain seemed a. much more personal thing. So many of us left Geneva to see what really happened,” she told listen ers. “There we found that people of the republic very often had only butcher knives and other kitchen implements to fight with.” She told of how close the war felt when almost every time they crossed streets in Madrid they would have to step over dead bod ies. Before leaving the Spanish fight ing area, she went into one of the front line towns back in the moun tains with another Norwegian war correspondent, Nordahl Grieg, one of Norway’s most promising- young writers before his death last De cember. They were the only two civilians in the military area, and they caused some consternation, but they did manage to get into town and see that the republicans actually held it. When the Germans entered Nor way, she explained, the people resisted longer than any other country which had been invaded previously. But when -the nazis gained control, they immediately closed all schools, and imprisoned or exported all university profes sors, without exception, to Ger many. “I hone l will not have to oo "Lassie Comes Home" with roddie McDowell — and — "The Texas Kid" The Andrews Sisters in "Always a Bridesmaid" — and — "Tarzan's Desert Victory" Johnny Weismuller Worker Lauds UO Red Cross i I “The Red Cross college unit here at the University has had a good start,’’ said Miss Elizabeth Robert son, Pacific area field representa tive, after inspecting the local unit April 3 to 5. “I wish to commend it for being the first organized one of its kind in Oregon, and now that it will be able to function inde pendently, there are a number of jobs the girls will be in a position to do.’’ Miss Robertson was especially pleased at the great response of the University students to the an nual Red Cross drive for funds, a drive which exceeded the quota and was a great deal larger than last year’s contribution. “The unit is too new to tell you much about it,’’ she said, “but the enthusiasm you have shown and are showing is tremendous. The flourishing nurses’ aide and the surgical dressing and water safety programs are really a credit to the school.” The Red Cross worker stated that there are numerous projects which the University Red Cross unit hasn’t yet started, but that additional activities are beginning very soon. After inspecting the other col lege units in Oregon, Miss Robert son is planning to come through Eugene again about April 20. back to the war areas, but if the war continues for some time, I may become a war correspondent again,” she revealed.
