YWCA Ice Cream
On Sale Today
Members of the YWCA fresh
man commission will manage the
traditional spring term ice cream
sale, slated on the campus May 9
and 10, as announced by Charleen
Browne, committee head for the
1944 sale.
Venders stationed at the Co-op,
between Commerce and Oregon
halls, at Friendly, the library, and
the Side will be on duty between
9:15 a.m. and 5 both days.
Cash raised in former successful
sales has gone to Seabeck camp
and other worthwhile YWCA
funds.
Poll to Decide
(Continued from page 1)
“ballots” and a box will be placed
in the Co-op for the use of students
who are not affiliated with living
organizations.
Space will be provided on the bal
lot for checking whether the stu
dent is a man or a woman, civilian
or soldier, in order to determine the
difference in opinion.
Conklin stressed that the student
should check the items that he be
lieves are most needed in the build
1
ing, rather than making a list of
what he would like to have there.
We’re coming closer and closer
to the actual realization of the
building, and it may be necessary
to pare down expenses a lot, so we
should .have the most needed items
for the building on top of the list,”
he emphasized. *

Regarding the libraries, Chair
man Moll said, "It is pleasing to
note that a lot of the entries were
made by freshmen which indicates
that the notion of gathering to
gether a library began early in their
college career.” He also commented
on the quality of the books as being
high and said the judges were
pleased to see a generous number
of books on philosophy, history, and
general science.
Miss Bernice Rise, librarian in
charge of the contest, remarked
that the libraries were larger this
year than ever before, especially
Miss Collins' collection of 400 books,

Versatile Midwesterner
(Continued from page 1)
Midwest Background
i As a high school girl back in
! Creston, Iowa, Margie was not as
j sure of her field as she is now. She
was born in Seattle, Washington,
but moved with her family to the
Middle West as a child of two. She
was educated in middle western
schools and her interests varied
from playing on the girls’ basket
ball team in interscholastic games
at Fontanelle, Iowa, to playing the
piano for the choruses and gl se
clubs and traveling all over the mid
west as kettle drum player in school
band contests. Margie is essentially
a small-town girl; Eugene is the
largest city she has lived in, and
she carries with her the friendly,
hi-neighbor attitude which charac
terizes so many midwesterners.
San Francisco Calls
However, Miss Robinson is a big
girl now and the calls of Market
and Geary streets in San Francis
co are beginning to make them
selves heard here in Eugene. So
Margie plans to leave school in June,
siesta for a month, and then set her
range finder on the towers of the
Golden Gate.
She hopes to get a job on one of
the large newspapers in the Bay
area. Her ambitions are not hitched
to planets yet because she thinks
that, “you have to get your feel of
the 14eld first; you can’t tell what’s
in store for you,” but bright-eyed
Margie has no sympathy for disil
lusioned youth with the increasing
ly popular fatalistic philosophy.
“I think something constructive
will come out of this war and some
thing better will eventually emerge.
This need not be another so-called
generation of lost youth if we all
make use of our potentialities,” she
said.
Mothers Give Aid

money, President Hollis said, “Such
a gift indicates your interest in the
welfare in the youth of Oregon.
There is no investment that can be
better made than an investment in
the youth of our state.”
New officers named for the Ore
gon Mothers for the coming year
were Mrs. Perry Dolph, Portland,
president; Mrs. Harry Winkler,
Portland, vice-president; Mrs. R. R.
Huestis, Eugene, treasurer; and
Karl W. Onthank, executive secre
tary.
A resolution of condolence to the
Donald M. Erb family, sent to the
family of the late University presi
dent, was read at the meeting.

in Utah, was the scene of a history-making event
on May 10, 1869—the realization oi a great
American's dream. It was Abraham Lincoln who
visualized the vital need for uniting, by rail, the
East with the Pacific Coast, and who authorized
the building oi a transcontinental railroad.
The Union Pacific struggled through lean and
troubled years but, like oiher pioneers, it had
faith in America s future. Edward H Harriman
had unbounded faith in America. His guiding
genius — and the iaith of the leaders "from the
ranks'’ who followed him, gave strength and
vigor to the railroad.
America always has offered unlimited opportu
nity and ample reward as an incentive for hard
work and individual enterprise, That's why it's
such a great country. It's our job to keep it
that way.

This year marks the 75th Anniversary—th6
Diamond Jubilee —of the driving of the Golden
Spike, the completion of "The Strategic Middle
Route.'' Union Pacific commemorates that his
toric occasion by continuing to exert every
effort in the transportation of materials and troops
so that victory and neace mav soon be ours.
