Free postcards will be distributed and information on the house of Representatives measure will be available at the booths. Addresses of congressmen from the various districts will also be supplied. The campaign is part of a na tional effort by AVC to bring the bill out of committee onto the house floor, where it was intro- I duced at AVC's request by Con gresswoman Edith Nourse Rogers, chairman of the house veterans affairs committee. Dorm Raises The local action has been given stimulus by recently announced in creases in University dormitory board ani: room rates. University officials h.x.c explained that these are necer '! ted by unavoidable higher costs. In testifying on the bill before a house su. :ittee, Chat Pat terson, AVC's national legislative representative, proposed that monthly allot -.ents be raised to $100 for single vet rans and $125 for married veterans. An over-all national survey by the organiza tion showed “basic living expens es” averaging at $104 and $152 for single and married students re spectively, he said.

Ann Curtis Wins SEATTLE, May 2 (AP)—Ann Curtis of San Francisco who this afternoon equalled the world’s record of .59.4 seconds in the 100 yard freestyle swam the distance tonight 1:00.3 to dethrone Brenda Helser of Los Angeles, defending champion, in the Women’s Nation al Indoor AAU swimming and diving meet. Nancy Merki of Portland was second and Miss Helser third in the final. Miss Curtis in her afternoon effort erased the American record set 16 years ago by Helene Madi son of Seattle and it was tall Helene—now Mrs. Mclver—who was on the awards platform t* congratulate her successor and present the award. full cost of eciucatron, and it is be lieved that this counteracts the original intent of congress when it passed the famed GI bill of rights. A number of non-affiliated vet erans have volunteered to join the A VC members in promotion of the campus campaign. Booths will be manned from 9 a.m.' to 5 p.m. Only 5 of the original cherubims in the New York cast of “The Green Pastures” remained small enough to last the first five years of pro duction. Eagle Screams for Local Men, Scores of Ex-GI's Get'The Bird' I y AL PIETSCHMAN Veteran students at Oregon are lucky. They get their checks, but in other schools throughout the nation pando lnonium reigns. J he vets in these schools have been caught with their sus penders unhooked. No checks, and thev are screaming, "Where’s the Eagle. Isn’t it loaded any more?” At California, like Oregon, a big prom is on the agenda. At east it was. But now wails of anguish emanate from women’s nving uigamzauons. iney can see the prom—no flowers, no dinner, no man. “What are we going to do?” asked one tearful Bear coed. “We were told in class that we couldn't live on love. Now we’re finding out.” Someone suggested Dutch Treats as the alternative for social life. And already veteran backers of this idea have announced a politi cal bloc. They are launching spec ial candidates. “Flat-broke dark horses” they call them, and they expect the third party to drag a lot of votes. An irate ex-infantryman made the best statement concerning the stink in Washington. “Its all a dirty capitalistic trick to get us GI’s back in the service. Them brass hats in Washington know we haven’t enough jack to last us and they need more suck ers. Yeah, they got it all figured out—no pay for us and we hobble back to the army and navy. Ha!” It’s tough all over these days for the hungry vets. All except here Fraternity Presents (Continued from />aiie one) L. B. Hopkins, Jr., ’42, Klamath Falls.

Deep concern for their fellow brothers was ex pressed by local vets on the cam pus as they shook out their blan kets and prepared for a Thursday j afternoon picnic. i The famous last lines from' ‘‘Casey at the Bat" were quoted by one collegiate paper in describing the situation. "Somewhere the sun is shining. Somewhere people are happy. But in Ann Arbpr (Michigan) the vets have been struck out!” EK1 ! -i • Replaceable filler in new Frank Medico Cigarette Holden, ' filters the smoke. • Cuts down nicotine. • Cuts down irritating tars. • In zephyrweight aluminum. • Special styles for men and women. • $2 with 10 filters, handy pouch and gift box. fcl'Iff I.H'I IJ.■ | I|JH!|[Il|IJ.| |IJLl^ . ?
