    Club May Send
UofO Students
To Conference
Possibility of sending delegates
from the local International Re
lations club to the Northwest reg
ional conference to be held in Van
couver, B. C., November 21 and 22
was discussed at the club meeting
Tuesday.
Dr. Charles Schleicher, adviser j
for the group, expressed the hope!
that a way would be worked out j
soon to enable at least three or ;
four interested students from Ore- i
gon to attend the Canadian confer- j
ence. Topic of discussion for the j
two-day meeting will be “Can the!
split between East and West be!
Reconciled?”
Tentative plans for the program
of the meeting are centered around
three round-tables, each holding
three sessions during the two days.
Problems and information concer
ning the clash in United Nations
organization will be discussed in]
the first round-table. European j
trouble is the topic for the second,
and the third group will discuss
condition in Asia.
Last year’s International Rela
tions regional conference was held
in Portland, Schleicher commented.
Funds to sponsor the meetings held
annually in different parts of the
United States come from the Car
negie Endowment fund for inter
national peace, he added.
Following a brief talk by Eob
Allen, president of the club, about
the future of the local club, its
'Lost and Found' Items See Dust;
Students Seldom Reclaim Trivia
One-way traffic seems to apply
to the lost and found articles that
accumulate in the campus lost and
found department situated in the
physical plant post office. Every
day a variety of students’ possess
ions find their way thence, never
to be resurrected by their right
ful owners.
The AOPi house librarian (judg
ing from the library notice in the
pocket) is only one of the several to
be minus a coat. Not even the rain
can coax students to claim their
coats, jackets, bandanas, and hats,
it seems.
Books Stacked
A variety of text books are gath
ering dust on the shelves of the
lost and found office, including Don
Farnam’s E n gl i s h workbook
Glenn’s principles of accounting,
George Martin’s German text, and
Blucher’s algebra book. Notebooks
of all sizes, some with voluminous
notes, others with impressive dood
lings, or suggestive blank pages
are also awaiting reclamation.
Perhaps the person that went to
the trouble of administering a ser
ies of Wechsler-Bellevue tests
would like to know that his or
her folder of tests can be obtained
at the lost and found headquarters.
Could it be that the owners of
the many unclaimed pairs of
glasses cannot find the lost and
found office ? Whatever the cause,
the department has gathered a
carton of glasses and cases.
Donna’s Pin There
Lou Ann Parker’s letter from
Washington D. C. and a pin be
longing to someone named “Donna”
are among the conglomeration of
articles that appear to be “no soon
er out of sight, than out of mind.”
All of these and many others,
have wandered away from their
owners and are biding their time in
the physical plant post office, the
home of the lost and found depart
ment, until reunited with their
possessors.

Stinks, Too
Dissect this kind of verbal flub
dub and you find obscurity; some
times masquerading as technical
accuracy, sometimes as subtlety.
But lack of clarity, no matter how
learned, is not subtle. It is just
unclear.
There are also the classifiers.
Education texts are the worst off
enders here. First you find 14 “car
dinal principles,” then each prin
ciple has a certain number of
general objectives. Each general
objective, of course, has oodles of
specific objectives.
A Common 111
Speech texts go in for this, too.
There are five types of speeches,
seven helps toward learning, and
three methods of topic develop
ment. This is true regardless of
whether a student can speak or
not. Out of such stuff come 20
point questions on midterms.
If these offending authors would
state what they have to say
clearly and tersely, most of their
books would be mere pamphlets.
Maybe I couldn’t do better, but
I’m sure they could.
Plymouth Uub to Party
“Congo Club" will be the theme

trio, and other acts.
Refreshments will be served and
