    irt Staff Pays Tribute
o Late Dean Lawrence
in recognition of the contribu
tions made to the University by
JtfcS late E. F. Lawrence, dean of
the school of architecture and al
lied arts, who died of a heart attack
Wednesday evening, the staff of
that school has issued the follow
ing statement as a tribute to his
memory:
“No higher tribute could be paid
to Dean Lawrence by members of
his staff at the University of Ore
gon, so they believe, than to quote
as peculiarly appropriate to him
the words with which he himself
once bore tribute to others, and ex
pressed the ideals which he per
sonally embodied:
‘Great leaders are usually humble
folk.. . Let us talk more about serv
ice than leadership, more about
understanding and thought and less
about knowledge. ..
No Compromise
‘No compromise where ideals are
at stake; intellectual integrity; tol
erance; frank and fearless utter
! . . To you the problem of the
University appeared to be the fine
art of living. . . In your work with
us something of the crusader’s
spirit gripped us. . . A leader who
stood for freedom, who demanded
of his staff and students that each
deliver the best account of his tal
ents; who made it clear there is
room on the campus for those only
who make the most of their oppor
tunities; who wanted his University
to be a living, vibrant thing . . . who
freely admitted error when error
was his. . .

‘Every real teacher has had an
insatiable desire for communica
tion. If he is a great teacher, his
consciousness is sensitive to his
own and others’ experiences. Ex
celling in abilities to communicate,
he weaves a kind of magic spell
and makes his students live over
those experiences and profit by
them as though they were their
own. . .
No Interference
‘He brooked no interference with
the teaching methods of any teach
er, because he was genuinely inter
ested in the teacher’s product, and
made known to the teacher that
appreciation, because he had elim
inated as far as possible in our
school the competitive motive.
‘Here on our campus thirty years
of experiment have been carried on
by our school They have been years
full of revolt, reform, research, and
result. They have left in my mind
certain things as proven. . . One is
that freedom of action on the part
of the staff and the students can
fix responsibility; and only so can
the best come from the teacher and
the best education be won by the
student. . . Another is that a short
coming of much of our education
consists in the effort to gain knowl
edge, rather than to find a normal,
natural place in the scheme of na
ture and society. . .
Duty
‘One of the rewarding obligations
that age and long service bring to
an “Old Dean’’ is the privilege and
the duty of passing on the torch
as best he may.’ ”
Dean Lawrence was stricken at
the Faculty club last Wednesday
evening and died before reaching
the Sacred Heart hospital. He had
been associated with the school of
architecture and allied arts at the
University since 1914 and had been
dean of that school since 1932.
Funeral services will be conduct
ed from Finley’s mortuary in Port
land at 2:30 p.m. Monday. A large
delegation of members of the art
school staff will attend.
AWS Auction
Offers Bargains
“Sold! One genuine mink coat
for $2i>!" Yes,'this and many other
unbelievable sales may be made
next Wednesday at 4 p.m. In front
of the Side is the correct place to
go, and in case you haven't
guessed, the occasion is the an
nual AWS auction of lost and
found articles.
The physical plant is the collec
tion depot for stray articles
throughout the year, and many at
tending the auction may discover
that lost history book or bandana
on the block.
Bobby Pearson is in charge of
the event this year, and auction
ing the items will be Betty Carl
son, Bob Moran and Ted Loud.
“Our auction will include most
everything from diamond rings to
popcorn,” declared Miss Pearson.
“It’s an occasion no one should
miss.”
Proceeds from the event will be
used to help provide scholarships
given by the AWS each year. The
money .from Coed Capers tickets
was not sufficient to meet the
scholarship need, Miss Pearson
explained. All students are urged
to attend.
Telling the Editor
(Continued from page two)
tire student body, and should not
be opposed only because of its
Greek origin. Jack Craig, ASUO
vice president and Independent
student, as chairman of the Uni
versity congress committee, did
much towards getting complete
agreement among the Indepen
dent and Greek members of the
committee in the writing of a con
stitution for the benefit of all Ore
gon students.
I feel that the ISA Senate, in
their action, is ’ not representative
of all the Independent students on
the campus that they are supposed
to represent, and is certainly not
representative of 1900 off-campus
Independent students who are in no
way affiliated with ISA.
We have an opportunity now for
genuine student participation In
our government. Let’s make the
best of this opportunity by voting
for the Student Congress.
An Independent Independent,
Clay Myers.
About Representation ...
To the Editor:
The proposed constitution will
put the responsibility of student
government on the shoulders of the
students. It will be their responsi
bility to see that their representa
tive represents them, and thus al
lows the whole student body opin
ion to be the voice of their govern
ment and promote student and
campus welfare. The present sys
tem of student government is in
adequate and this new plan is a
change to better ourselves indi
vidually and collectively. The pres
ent plan may have its faults, but
if it is accepted I see no reason
why we can’t make it work to our
own advantage.
Independently,
Allen G. Cutler.

Krupa Possibility
Rumor has Gene Krupa into
Jantzen Beach for a one-nighter in
the near future. Seems Harvey
Wells is going overboard for
names. Which, as we could have
told anyone eight years ago, isn’t
a gamble jack, it's a scratch in the
jug. With Gene maybe, if things
remain constant, Anita O’Day and
terrific tenorist Charlie Ventura.
Dick Carlton, alto-man, and Sue
Welch, vocalist, are being married
March 24, in Portland’s Grace Me
morial. Which lias been said before.
But what has not is a fertile little
idea, a real good little idea, about
invading the sanctity of the church
long enough to play about eighteen
well-chosen bars of "Yellow Dog
Blues” in place of Mendelssohn.
'Mental Health' Series
To Hear Dr. Bernard
Dr. Harold W. Bernard, instruc t

“Facing Disappointments.” Per
sonality development was discussed
last Sunday afternoon and Dr. Ber

certain goals to work toward and
how they can be worked into one’s
own philosophy of life.
All students and young marrk d
couples are welcome to attend at
4 Sunday and present questions for
the discussion period.
