SOME TALENTED i The majority of women’s organi- i zations must remember Pete, the I ATO Collie-Shepherd. He went to ] the Bunion Derby with the boys. ] His outstanding talent is putting matches out, not by blowing but : by smashing them with his foot. Pete has a side kick, Blackie, who i invariably is seeking the warmest spot by the fire. Any professor who has had the misfortune to be tripped while lecturing to his class can undoubt edly place the blame on Pi, the Pi Kap Cocker Spaniel. Pi also enjoys , eating gum from the bottom of chairs. Three females are residing at . the Sigma Nu house. They are ; Ophelia and her two daughters.

With a great collection of accessories, a woman could wear the lame skirt and sweater or dress every day, and no one would know t—if she wore different accessories with the outfit each day.

She didn’t know -a thing about it until she read about it the next morning. “I almost fell down the front steps.” Barbara wants to be a career girl. She is taking courses in inter ior design here and upon gradua tion wants to work as an interior decorator. A native Oregonian, she lives in Salem and attended Willamette University last year. She likes Oregon, even the rain. The University of Oregon? She "loves it.” Especially the millrace. She goes canoeing often and com ments: “It’s a wonderful way to waste a Sunday afternoon.” Being a finalist is something new to Barbara. She had been a semi finalist in the Sigma Chi sweet heart contest at Willamette Uni versity and for the “W Club” (let terman’s club). BILL, CLAUSEN Bill Clausen, towering six-foot four high sheriff for the Whisker ino, laugnmgiy says uitu. aiuiuugu Joe College finalists are exempt from the shaving ban, he’ll prob ably get dunked anyhow. Bill appeared at the interview sans whiskers. He doesn’t look worried though. The. blonde liberal arts major graduated from University High School in 1946 and went directly into the Marine Corps. He spent two years in the Marines doing re creation work. His station was the Mojave Desert. He didn’t like it too well. He said he was not exactly fond of Oregon rain either, although he spent most of his life here. How ever, he thinks he’ll stick it out and perhaps stay here after he graduates. Bill played center for the Uni versity High basketball team and played on the district all star squad during his senior year. He started his University career as a physical education major, but changed and will look around for something else that interests him —perhaps law. Cancer kills more mothers of school age children than any other disease • . I • Once, not too long ago—Mom heard her prayers at night, dressed her in the morning and got her off to school. . . . But Mom went away and didn’t come back. No home is safe from cancer. Last year cancer killed more mothers of growing families than any other disease. Tragic—but even more tragic is the fact that many of these deaths need never have happened. Many of the mothers who now die could be cured—IF they learned to recognize cancer’s symptoms and seek medical advice immediately —IF sufficient money can be found for the cancer research needed to discover the causes of the disease, to perfect its treatment. The American Cancer Society, through its pro gram of public education and medical research, is dedicated to the conquest of cancer. Will you help?
