New Members Added to Moth, Science Group Six new teachers and a new de partment head complete the de partments of science and mathe matics this term. Heading the geology-geography department is Dp Samuel N Dick en, professor of geography. Dr. Dicken has taught geography at the University of Minnesota for 18 years and served as consultant to two blanches of the armed for ces during the war. In his work for the army air forces he visited the Oregon campus in connection with the air force's premeteor < logy group here. Later for the office of strategic services Dr. Dicken did research work on German caves which the army feared would become guer ula headquarters for the defeated Germans.

New men in the physics depart ment are Dr. Fred W. Paul and Eugene P. Cooper, both associate professors of physics, and Philip A. Goldberg, instructor of phy sics. Dr. Paul did his undergraduate work at Willamette university and received his masters a'nd doctors degrees from Massachusetts In stitute of Technology. Later he v, as assistant professor in the in stitute of optics at tlie University of Rochester, New York. During tiie war Dr. Paul did research in optics for the National Defense Re search committee.

Increasing Coffee Charges Bring Campus Controversy By JIM WALLACE Along with the campus-wide controversies concerning the long skirts and high-priced haircuts great feeling has been generated over the now universal ten-cent cup of coffee. Much was said and written about this matter fall term of last year but interest gradually died out be cause a small handful of the cam pus culinary outposts reverted to the traditional exchange of a five cent piece for a cup of coffee. But now all is changed. Even the las't strongholds of five-cent cof fee have fallen before the on slaught of the dime-a-cup group. With this in mind some of the lead ers of last year’s “Nickel Cuppers” were asked for their opinions on the matter. Linked Endangered One of the more prominent mem bers said that he felt that a strong link in the chain which goes to make up a liberal arts institution was being endangered by the new high prices. He maintained that the basis of a broad and liberal ed ucation was discussion over coffee cups. But he believed that the new prices would all but wipe out this important form of distributing ideas and opinions. For what col lege student, he asked, can spend much time over ten-cent cups of coffee ? A bridge-playing member of the Dr. Cooper was assistant professor of physics at the University of North Carolina and did research work for the navy. Goldberg got his 3.A."degree at Reed college and has done further work at University of Chicago and University of California. He has been in the navy. The mathematics department has one new professor, Dr. I. M. Niven, associate professor of al gebra. Dr. Niven got his doctor ate at the University of Chicago and has taught at the University of Illinois and at Purdue. T.S. Peterson of the mathema* tics department is on a year's leave of absence while writing a calcu las book to suplement his series of an intermediate and a college al gebra book for Harper’s. - - ... % Take advantage of the Eugene area's beautiful fall weather and go picnicing.

He admitted that several establishments now feature coffee and donuts for a dime but he insisted that the eating of do nuts was not at all conducive to good bridge playing. In fact, he even pointed out that it is definite ly frowned upon in all higher cir cles of society. Worried Sippers Those who study while they sip were just as critical of the situa tion. An econ major argued that all the theories presented in her classes seemed somehow to pale before the cold fact that the wait ress always inscribed her check with “cof . . 10c.” She held that the dime cups were just not consistent with the laws of supply and de mand . , . as she understood things, it was more closely related to the law of diminishing returns. Even the casual caffein addicts were protesting more than mildly. They were closely watching papers to see the outcome of buyers’ strikes on commodities such as butter and eggs. They admitted that perhaps coffee wasn’t abso lutely necessary to their lives, but they were the first to insist that a comradely cup was the best way to while away the time between a 9 o’clock and an eleven o'clock.

If someone down south would take the trouble to look beyond the corner of Hollywood and Vine he would find that all the women that men fall in love with are not rav ing beauties, that all of life’s bad men don’t have completely black characters, that virtue doesn’t al ways triumph. The producers will say, most em phatically, that in the first place they can’t produce frank and hon est movies because of censorship difficulties, and in the second place there is no market for them. The latter is the more important rea son to these men, and as a would be capitalist, I can sympathize with their point of view. As a ticket-buyer, however, I believe that theirs is a false prem ise. Who says that the public does n’t want or can’t understand adult and realistic film drama? And who says the public won’t support such pictures ? It’s a mat ter of financial record that movies like “The Informer,” “Make Way For Tomorrow,” “Scarface,” and many others have rolled up fine profits even after .some of them had bad starts. The word gets around that here, for a change, is a fine picture—one worth seeing. The word also gets around about absolute tripe like the recent “Dead Reckoning,” starring Humphrey Bogart and Lizabeth Scott. I imag ine exhibitors wept secretly when audiences laughed uproariously at Miss Scott’s dramatically pitiful deathbed line, “This is it. . .” One line from one pic'tufe—but such hammy sequences have been and probably will be repeated countless times on the screen. It’s pretty sad. Hollywood has all the equipment and talent'nec essary to put out honest pictures —and- doesn’t take more thau cas ual advantage. Even if Hollywood wanted to, it would have censor trouble.

A, Dahlberg with an all-time high re corded in both the number of par ticipating students and the number of speaking engagements filled. The total audience reached was slightly smaller than that reached in 1945-46 when symposium mem bers spoke before 13,000 people throughout the state.
