Endurance Walkathon Waived;
Men Spared Traditional Corns
By BOB WHITELY
Some heel removed the Bunion Derby from the social
calendar!
Through no fault of Dick Williams or anyone else connected
with the educational activities office, the forced march and sprint
will not be held this year for ... of all things . . . lack of organi
zation.
This annual “meet the people” marathon has been a campus
tradition for years, and it is too bad
to see it discarded when the campus
is busting at the seams with new
students. A lot of the undergradu
ates, especially freshmen, haven’t
had a chance to look over the
current crop of coeds, and vice
versa, and the derby was always the
key to success. If the gal didn’t re

the derby” ... to which you had her
there.
Of course it is extremely doubtful
if some of the older single veterans
like Henry Cavanaugh, Frank
Bosch and Herb Penny could last
the required tour, but it would
broaden the scope of their limited
acquaintances. Ex-GI’s could corner
some innocent thing of 17 or so, and
in the fifteen minutes alloted to
each living organization could at
least establish a beachead, limited
as their facilities might be.
It’s too bad that we can’t show
the sore feet, the tired smiles, and
tne stacks of little black books that
are filled on Bunion Derby night.
Somehow it just ain’t fall tertn
without it. With all the other com
mittees floating around the campus
there could have been one to take
care of this campus tradition. For
the seniors and juniors it won’t be
missed so much, but for the under
graduates and new students ... you
don’t know what you missed.

Vet Meeting Set
For Monday Eve
According to an announcement
by Jack Caldwell, of the Eugene
chapter of the American Veterans
committee, the first membership
meeting of the group will be held at
7:30 Monday night in Room 105
Commerce building on the campus.
Caldwell said membership will deal
with the current AVC campaign—
"every vet a voter.”
At a meeting of the officers two
weeks ago plans were laid for the
chapter to be set up on the campus.
Paul Deutschmann, chairman of
the local AVC chapter, favored a
strong campaign at the University
for membership on a campus basis.
Plans for a local chapter in Eu
gene, in, conjunction with the cam
pus group have been underway
since last spring.
Caldwell urges that every eligi
ble veteran, male or female, includ
»
ing veterans of merchant marine
service, attend.

la a forum held Thursday eve
ning in the veterans’ dorm, a group
of about 50 veterans had a discus

Originator of the idea and presi
dent of Dorm AA, Bob Lovlien pre
sided at the discussion with the aid
of Jens Jensen, secretary. Patricia
Spencer, president of Susan Camp
be’l hall, and Dorothy Rasmussen,
president of Alpha Delta Pi, repre

in the men receiving invitations for
the coming week to speak at both
Susan Campbell hall and the Alpha
Delta Pi house on what they expect
from University women.

often forget this.
The party that faces the issues
with its back to the wind, the party
that resorts to name-calling and
false-labeling and cheap sensation
alism, will fool nobody but itself.

Musicians Lack
Practicing Space
Dean Theodore W. Kratt "ofThe
music school announced Friday that
the south annex practice rooms for
the music school should be ready
in about a week, but that the north
annex will not be ready for occu
pancy for three or four weeks, ow
ing to the shortage of materials and
workers.
Another problem with which Dr.
Kratt must deal is the matter of se
ff= —
curing pianos for each of the 2Q
rooms which the annexes will add
to the music school.
At present students who have
practice rooms in the main music
building are sharing their rooms
with those who have not yet been
assigned practice space.
