Meeting of Oregon Alumni Highlight Newburn Trip Most Interesting Experience Of Trip Is Alumni Luncheon At the Roosevelt By MARYANN THIELEN A meeting with Oregon alumni in New York City was one of the highlights of President Harry K. Newburn’s recent 24 day trip to the east. He also met with college and library heads with a view towards finding a new head librarian. Dr. Newburn attended the American Library association meeting in Chicago; however, he could not divulge any infor mauon as ro wnat was accom plished. While in Chicago, the president also conferred with Dr. Harold J. Noyes, dean elect of the University of Oregon Dental College in Portland. A luncheon with Oregon alumni in the Roosevelt hotel in New York was arranged by Allen Eaton, graduate of the University and now with the Russell Sage founda tion, and was the most interest ing experience of Dr. Newburn’s trip. “1 spoke to the group about the University and was surprised at their intense interest in the stu dent union building,” the president said. He commented that there is a sizeable group of New York alumni who have formed an in formal organization that meets when the occasion arises. During his stay in New York, Dr. Newburn visited with Charles Hulten, associate professor of journalism on leave from the Uni versity who is now in New York and Washington, D. C. as deputy director of the information serv ice. He also had breakfast with Theodore Kratt, dean of the school of music, who had just arrived from four months in Europe and was enroute to the University. Dr. Newburn attended a meeting of the Association of American Colleges jn Cleveland where the problems of the returned veterans and the shortage of housing were discussed. Delegates from the United Nations Education, Science, and Culture assoi '. ition gave re ports to the gathering. While Dr. Newburn was in Cleveland, Mrs. Newburn and baby Mike visited friends in Iowa City, where the Newburns lived for 12 years before coming west. Personnel work occupied much of Dr. Newburn’s time as there are several faculty posts to be filled and other changes always occurring; however, he could not make any statements regarding these positions at this time. VETERANS TO TAKE (Continued from page one) There they made their “bow before royalty,” playing for the Norwegian crown prince and princess. In August, he tried his hand at real production, putting GIs and Norwegian girls into a musical review. ’’The Norwegian gals did pretty well with the stage trade tricks,” Edwards said with a grin, “although it was a little difficult to define for them some of the American phrases, such as ‘Get Hep!’ (which was the name of the review).” Before entering the service, Ed wards was prominent both in and around the campus in the pursuit of drama and music, tie took part in many University theater guild productions, including “Night Must Fall,” “Berkeley Square,” “As Husbands Go” and “Arms and the Man.” As dance director, he worked with Horace Robinson on “With Fear and Trembling.” In music, the talented pianist played Let Us Repair Your Shoes! white you wait PROGRESSIVE SHOE SHOP 75 \Y.

Jewelry for your VALENTINE fJrislowQ JEWELRY STORE 620 Willamette KKK Key Kept Carefully Quiet Maybe it’s the latest thing in the way of vitamins. Or does someone have a better solution to the KKK that popped up all over the campus overnight? If it is the Ku Klux Klan re-acti vated, they are certainly following an unorthodox course. At least the U. S. History books don’t credit the Klan with signs as a giveaway to their action in a territory. Public-spirited students suggest ed maybe the initials stood for Keep Kampus Klean—a good idea, in any event. Some one else pro claimed it could be nothing else but advertisement for the forth coming Coed Capers—Koming Ko ed Kapers. And with a wolfish gleam, one man-about-town suggested Kozy, Kuddly, Korners, or even possibly Kute Kuddly Koed's. The more cynical scoffed that probability off and suggested maybe Krazy Kam pus Koeds, or even Kuiet, Kuick, and Kareful. The originator of the latter really taxes his imagination. And yet the originators of the Patients Unhappy Over Visitor Ban Visiting the pill palace as usual yesterday afternoon, this reporter noticed the serenity of the place, the happy look on the nurse’s face, and the grouchiness of the patients, due, undoubtedly, to the visiting restriction set up by Dr. Fred Mil ler January 29. Infirmary rolls have dropped from 18 to 11, which could be due to lack of visitors, or just healthy patients. Those who are hoping the staff will |xterminate the “no visiting’’ banishment soon are Joene John son, Anne Weller, Molly Douglas, Mary Struve, Laurel Anderson, Lynn Smith, Ruth Schneider, Thomas Knapp, Ed Marshall, Earl Anderson, and Jim Cassell. KKK continue to stay out of the limelight, for no verified report has yet been offered as to what the KKK was really intended for. Do you have a KKK complex? Those army K rations could have done that, maybe.
