Hit-Run Accident Presents Problem By Marjory Bush A hit-and-run driver who left behind a hub cap, bumper grill, skid marks, and other miscellan eous articles was being sought Friday afternoon, following an “accident” in the Johnson Hall parking lot. Also remaining was an ancient model gray Pontiac, with no front wheels and dangling head lights. More than 30 officers could be seen investigating the scene, taking measurements, and collecting evi dence. However, it is doubtful if the culprit will be found, for the evi dence consisted of parts of vari ous cars, and the entire accident had been set-up by Sgt. Vern L. Hill, of the department of State Police, as a part of the Oregon Police Officers’ basic training school. Student officers were confronted with this practical accident prob lem to apply knowledge gained from their classroom work. The annual week-long school held in Johnson Hall, was conclud ed Friday. Keith L. Jones, Eugene chief of police, presented certifi cates to 32 officers who completed the program. Raising Cain (Continued jrom page tivo) mar because of inherent hat red for innocent, struggling freshman. Instead, they are language historians who study the great authors to determine how these artists of the writ ten word imprisoned lofty thoughts in inspired prose. Keeping this discovery a secret (the book had never been opened before) our her oine decided to return to her unregenerate ways of writing when she was-free of her tra dition-gripped college. When she finally confessed this dark design to her in structor, he opined that she would be a successful writer only in the criticism of.maga zines that nobody but the contributors and staff under stood and read. The gentle reader might expect that the instructor was correct, but for a certain ubiq uitous fashion mag a z i n e which selected our heroine to help “edit” their college issue. Once in the storied big city’s word factories, our young and lovely was in her element at last. She compos ed advertising copy so beau tifully and incomprehensible that, in the words of law pro fessor Charles Howard her “description of an a n v i 1 brought tears to the eyes.” Years passed, long femi nine hairdo's were succeeded by the feminine version of the crew-cut. The now aged in structor who predicted that our heroine would come to a bad end, as a writer, of course, now boasted of his early in fluence on the Gertrude Stein of the advertising world. Asks for Volunteer Help Campus entertainment groups are asked to contact Georgene Shanklin at the Alpha Gamma Del ta house if they are able to travel ! to Roseburg to entertain at the ■' Veterans hospital there. Chief Appoints 30 to Oregana Editorial Staff Oregana Editor Larry Davidson yesterday released names of 30 ap pointees to the editorial staff of the 1950 book.

C. Stovall, professor of climatology and geography, said yesterday when discussing Eu gene’s unseasonal early morning cold. This disruption of nature’s sched ule, he said, is due to a massive high pressure area which has come down from Canada, bringing with it clear skies and cold air. It has pushed the low pressure area, which is Eugene’s usual condition, south to California (which means that rain will probably be on tap for today’s game in Los Angeles). Prof. Stovall added that Wed nesday night’s 24 degrees was the lowest Eugene temperature ever recorded in October. Normally, a high pressure area is deflected east to the Great Plains by the Rockies, he said. But this mass was so great that it came straight south. When you feel the first warm breezes coming off the ocean, you’ll know that the low pressure area has come back home, and can look for rains again. on layout; Barbara Earl, seniors; Barbara Fagg a.nd Florence Han sen, schol clubs and honoraries; Jeanne Hoffman, activity clubs and honoraries; Gerald Berreman, re ligious organizations; Margaret Edwards, concerts and lectures Gretchen Grondahl, publications; Helen Gatewood, ASUO and class es; Ray Freauff, speech and fine arts; Jeanne Hoffman, women’s sports; Jack Leitheiser, men’s houses; Sally Beckett, women’a houses.
