Busy Life
For Ducks
A balanced schedule of study,
activities, and social life is what
every Duck in the know tries to
achieve, and hep students have no
trouble finding dozens of interest
ing projects to fill each term on
the campus.
Entertainment can always be
found downtown although most
Oregon students prefer to center
their life around the campus. Eu
gene is equipped with a year-round
ice-skating rink, roller rink, four
theaters, a playhouse, several bowl
ing alleys, two night clubs for din
ing and dancing, and many res
taurants for those special occasion
dinners or Sunday morning late
breakfasts.
On campus the millrace is al
ways crowded on warm afternoons
With canoeing coeds and men. For
those indispensable afternoon
cokes and between-classes bridge
games, everyone congregates at the
College Side Inn (to Ducks, just
the “Side”), Taylor’s the Siberian,
the Falcon, Doc’s, and Robinson’s.
Popular Picnics
All Oregonians are passionate
about picnics, if attendance at these
affairs is any indication. Weather
permitting, everyone puts roasting
weinies at the big fireplace at
Hendricks park on their must list.
Football and basketball games,
as well as rallies, will play a bigger
part in each Duck’s life this year.
There’ll be the thrill of more dates
• to college dances, and open houses
at living organizations and Wes
ley and Wesminister houses.
Student plays, recitals and guest
lecturers give Ducks a welcome di
version from books. It is expected
that again this year renowned
artists will be presented in con
cert in McArthur court through the
Eugene Civic Music association.
All Students Belong
Previously such artists appeared
under the Greater Artists Series,
but now the University pays a lump
sum for membership of the entire
student body. Eugene residents
will join the association this fall
in a drive extending from Septem
ber 17-22. After that membership
will close. Over 1800 Eugeneans be
longed last year.
Eight artists appeared in Eugene
last year under the program, and
C. E. Gaylord, president of the as
sociation, says that officials of the
association will attempt to equal
or surpass the balance, quantity
and quality of the 1944-45 attrac
tions, among whom were Rise
Stevens and the Don Cossacks.

they did last spring term, and men
students will live in three of the
units. The Kappa Sigma house will
be used by women students, and
Alder lodge will house men.
Frats for Dorms
Dean Onthank says that ar
rangements will be made to rent
other fraternity houses for student
dormitories if enough reservations
are received.
Two new sororities will be on
the campus. The Zeta Tau Alphas
have rented the Sigma Alpha Ep
silon house, and the Delta Zetas
have arranged for the Sigma Nu
house.
Dean Onthank does not believe
any of the fraternity houses will
reorganize this year, although it
is possible that enough fraternity
members from each house may en
roll fall term to make re-opening
possible.
Students interested in finding
rooms in private homes may take
advantage of the city YWCA’s
room registry service. A file of
available rooms now is being kept
in the Y’s office in the new Com
munity Center. Some Eugeneans
are willing to rent rooms to mar
ried couples.

There is a certain something about her manner... about
her dress... it's that Oregon look a fashion-wise Eu

We modestly claim to be experts at helping college
women choose their clothes, their cosmetics, their
accessories, even their linens. Why else would both
Vogue and Mademoiselle ask us to feature their
clothes?
P. S. This year we're adding REALLY dressy dresses.
