Ski Club Meeting Scheduled Tonight Ski club members have been asked to bring in their Ski Oregon license tags or the money from their sale to the Ski club meeting at 7:30 tonight in room 105, Ore gon. The club has issued an urgent call for all racers in classes B and C to attend the meeting, since the club wants to form a team to com pete in two coming interclub races. All others interested are welcome. The University of Oregon ski club team will enter the Lewis and Clark-sponsored open intercollegi ate club meet at Mt. Hood this weekend. Those participating will be Saul Zaik, Gordon Malafouris, Paul Livingston, Stan Arthur, and John Meyer. Financial Picture Bright (Continued from page two) which is awaited with great inter est in all of France. Americans attempting to secure Italian visas for that period have been refused, which might indicate that some violence is expected. The leftist press here, of course, is certain of a Communist victory and even Paris-Presse, the DeGaulis't paper, has expressed the same opinion. It is generally conceded, however, that the French Communists will not make any move until after the elections there, although there have been recent demands by the Com munist-controlled labor union, the CGT, for a raise in wages. But the non-Communist union, Force Ouvriere, has agreed to await for a bit to see if the govern ment price program will have any effect. If the present price condi tions continue, however, the Force Ouvriere has indicated that it will demand wage increases also. In my stay here I have had an opportunity to get fed up with at least one place—Switzerland. This may be personal prejudice on my part but on the other hand I can testify that my opinion is no dif ferent than that of the majority of American students who have had contact with the Swiss. A recent edition of the Paris Herald which had a large supplement devoted to Switzerland, proclaiming it as “the friendly nation serving Europe,” was met with concerted groans from the group of students meeting at our favorite cafe in Grenoble. What I must label the “money mindedness" of the Swiss is the chief stumbling block to establish ing cordial relations there. To not so-rich students the Swiss seem willing to “serve Europe” only if there is a profit in it for Switzer land, a charge that is frequently made here by Communists con cerning the United States and the Marshall plan, but which I trust is false. In innumerable petty ways the Swiss seek to make a profit on serv;ces which are generally free or no services at all. The price of hotel room, for example, seldom in cludes the price for heat, etc. added to the bill. The difference in price of train tickets bought at the sta tion and on the trains is consider- 1 Tennis Team Defeated Oregon’s inexperienced tennis team was defeated, 7 matches to none by the Oregon State netters at Corvallis yesterday.

In general, the man of modest means is not made to feel welcome in Switzerland, in distinct contrast to France. The Easter season is a time when the Parisians go to the provinces and visitors, like myself, come to Paris. It is a delightful time, a time for spending hours talking with friends over aperitifs, a time for discovering old streets and landmarks that one has long heard about but now grows to know and love. France is, perhaps, at the present time a grim place 'to live, but I have found it, for all that, a lively place too, a country that is always beautiful, always young. How simple little bottlenecks clog traffic can be understood by any citizen whose dog likes to sleep in the middle of the corridor. “Things refuse to be mismanaged long,” says the sage, but he doesn’t say how long.
