    Officials Survey
Activity Trends,
Says YW Prexy
The National Student Young
Women’s Christian association is
now celebrating the 75th anniver
sary of its founding at Normal, Il
linois, Laura Olson, president of
the local YWCA, said yesterday.
The founding of the campus Y
was March 18 when it celebrated
its 54th anniversary. When this
chapter was formed, the late Mrs.
W. G. Beattie (Willa M. Hanna) of
Eugene was the first president,
and Mrs. Frank Chambers (Edith
E. Brown), also of Eugene, was the
first secretary.
In observance of the anniversary,
national YWCA officials conducted
a survey to determine the trend of
student activity today, compiled
from detailed reports from Univer
sity organizations over the United
States.
"Today’s college woman faces
the years after graduation with a
realism and practical experience in
human relations which will well fit
her to combine the roles of mother
and citizen of tomorrow." This is
the consensus of the national or
ganization, basing the statement on
the reports submitted.
The University of Oregon was
mentioned in the report on the lo
cal YWCA's veterans' nursery lo
cated at the Fairmount Presbyte
rian church. Tlie material submit
ted may be used for special arti
cles for tlie Woman’s Press and for
release to several other women’s
magazines, Lois Greenwood, exec
utive director of the Y, said.
Activities of the YWCA on other
campuses was summarized in the
report, touching the topics of per
sonal problems, taking part in com
munity and international affairs,
volunteer work in school nurserys,
baby-sitting, information booths,
and extensive work in racial prob
lems on tiie campuses.

Frustrated Fans
File Bowl Suit
SAN FRANCISCO, April 28—
(UP)—Four football fans who
claimed they were “fraudulently”
prevented from buying tickets to
the Rose Bowl game New Year’s
day were granted the right yester
day to file suit in a Los Angeles
superior court.
The state supreme court order
ed the superior court to consider
their case against the Tournament
of Roses association in its June
calendar. The men asked $100 dam
ages each.
The ruling reversed the super
ior court’s earlier decision that the
case should be tried in municipal
court since the four fans had
asked damages of less than $1,000.
The men—Claude Weaver, M. W.
Kelly Kelso, Dustin Girton and W.
E. Long, all of Los Angelos—
charged they stood in line Dec. 23
when 7,500 public admission tic
kets were to be sold for the USC
Miehigan classic. They claimed
they had stubs which “guaranteed”
them a place in line and the right
to buy two tickets, but after 1,500
had been sold the box offices were
closed. They had to listen to the
game over the radio.
Co-op Will Accept
Used Text Books
A representative of Long’s Col
lege Book eo., will be in the Co-op
for the final clay Wednesday to
buy second hand text books from
students.
Texts need not be those which
have been used for classes on
this campus. Cash will be paid for
the books, according to the com
pany's representative.
Haddock now costs only 18 cents
a pound and a talented cook can
make it taste like $1,000,000.
Cockroaches Free
To First Comers
It’s Christmas at the Orphan
age!
A big present of a free box of
assorted cockroaches and tele
type rolls has been offered to the
first comer by Dean George S.
Turnbull of the school of journal
ism. The box can be found in the
corner of the journalism lab
room.
Journalism school theorizers
have advanced the idea that per
haps the beasties thrive on 'the
yellow teletype paper.

Draws Golfers
MONTEREY, Cal.. April 28—
(UP)—Top amateur and profes
sional stars of the west toured

terday as they prepared for the

Fritz, San Francisco star.

Best argument in favor of ree
dom of information is that murder
will out anyway.
