Librarian Expects
Many Contestants
Entry Blanks Available
For Annual Competition
Expecting greater participation
in the Student Library contest this
year than ever before, Miss Ber
nice Rise, circulation librarian, an
nounced that entry blanks may be
obtained at the circulation desk or
in her office on the main floor of
the libe.
Students are encouraged to en
ter their personal libraries on the
basis of quality of subject matter
rather than quantity. Cash prizes
amounting to $25 will be awarded
the three most outstanding collec
tions.
Miss Rise had charge of the first
contest, held in 1939 for under
graduate students. In 1941-42 the
contests were opened to graduate
students as well, but in 1943 the
contest was once again limited to
undergraduate students, since the
aim is to create interest among
students who need guidance or who
might otherwise neglect personal
ownership of books.
The contest is sponsored solely
by the Friends and Patrons of the
Library, although the Co-op store
co-operated in 1943-44. The House
Librarians are working actively
in stimulating interest among stu
dents in living organizations.
Fourteen libraries were entered
in 1939, and since then interest
has gained momentum with each
contest. Last year, 32 personal li
braries were entered, and 26 ac
tually displayed. Kenneth Lode
wick, senior in arts, was first prize
' winner. He will display his library
again this year. During the contest
history, more awards have been
given to men than women, Miss
Rise reported.

IRREPRESSIBLE
(Continued from fiaae one)
Princess Luoma
Princess George Luoma, who
vigorously campaigned for his op
position immediately after his own
nomination, first expressed doubt
as to the honor attached to his
position, but was later heard to
remark that he rather liked it.
“After all,” he is quoted as say
ing, “you’re an important person
to be rated a BWOC on the Ore
gon campus'.”
Princess Luoma’s normal stature
is causing no difficulty for the
j royal dressing committee, but the
I royal hair designers are becoming
frantic. Luoma, who ordinarily
wears his hair combed back in
long flowing lines, insists that he
will not permit it to be braided for
\ the May 4 occasion.
The controversy was partially
solved last night when the hair
designers wired Arthur Hay for
his opinion. It is expected in time
for the festivities.

Art Student Sculps Faces
To Launch Nightmares
By Hans Wold
For the sake of those who have

visions of the “great stone face,”

Hagstrom Revisits
Campus Friends
Leonard W. Hagstrom, San
Francisco, journalism graduate
with the class of 1929 and for four
years Univeristy editor, paid a
visit to his old campus haunts Fri
day.
Hagstrom is assistant sales
manager for the Silklin Paper
corporation, a Zellerbach affiliate,
for the western states. Up to six
months ago he had been in the U.
S. navy for 38 months and had
risen to the rank of lieutenant
commander.
Personnel Work
His work was in connection with
personnel, information, and public
relations, and for a time he had
charge of public relations on an
aircraft carrier in the Pacific,
sending stories of the activities of
the men, with their photographers,
to their hometown papers.
“So, you see,” he said, “my jour
nalistic and photographic training
has not come amiss.”
Wrote Scripts
Before joining the paper com
pany, in pre-war days, Mr. Hag
strom spent a year as secretary
to a script-writer for the movies
and lived in Los Angeles. To
gether they collaborated on “Six
Months to Live” and some other
screen stories.
The Oregon grad visited several
of his old-time associates in the
administration and the school of
journalism while on the campus
Friday.
campus, among them Florence A.
Godfrey, who created the “face.”
The “face” is approximately 10
weeks old but looks older. As far
as can be discovered she has never
been formally christened, and Miss
Godfrey informs us that any re
semblance to particular persons,
living or dead, is purely uninten
tional.
In spite of her anonymity, no
one who has ever known her would
accuse the “face” of lacking per
sonality. Actually, she is just bub
bling over with character. Sha
seems to gaze out of her big red
dish brown eyes with a sort of
sardonic humor on the world at
large. Sometimes she looks a little
cynical.
At first one hardly notices her.
But she grows on you.
Some people feel a sort of good
natured affection toward her. She
irritates some people, perhaps be
cause her head is three times as
long as it is high. A few sensitive
souls actually bear her a sort of
morbid hatred. They avoid her.
They would walk blocks out of“'
their way rather than meet her
stony stare.
The “face” is also suffering from
a cracked spot in the back of her
head.
