    kuto Club Picks New Name,
nlarges Business Activities
(The Campus Automobile Club,
>gun locally spring term, has re
;ntly changed its name to the
ational Campus Club and is ex
mding into fields other than auto
obiles, according to Lewis C.
Nickerson, local manager for the
Btudent cooperative.
The club has recently signed a
contract with the Club Cleaners at
filth and Oak and has contacted
pother businesses in Eugene. Some
businessmen are waiting to see
Blow the Club Cleaners profits be
kore joining the national coopera
tive.
STARTED LAST YEAR
Begun last year by Gordon L.
{Ness, a journalism student at
Stanford University, the club has
broadened to a national concern
jWith over 500,000 students on 175
campuses, Nickerson said. Harvard,
Tulane, Northwestern, Oregon, and
Washington are some of the schools
that have been organized. The club
is run entirely by and for students.
Business establishments having
contracts with the NCC agree to
give discounts ranging from 10 to
20 per cent to student members of
the group.
“We have a problem of convinc
ing the merchants that they can
benefit by giving students special
rates,” Nickerson said. “They can
make a profit just as much as stu
dents can save money by joining
the cooperative. In return for a
discount, we promise that all mem
bers of the cooperative will trade
with the merchants.”
The club has approximately 1400
members at the University of Ore
gon.
Membership cards cost $3 a year
and are good at any CAC or NCC
store in the United States, accord
ing to Nickerson.
A partial scholarship program is
being' set up with the money re
ceived from fees. Members unable
to finish school because of finan
cial difficulties will be assisted.
Nickerson emphasized that the co
operative is a non-profit organi
zation.
An Emerald poll of businesses
near the campus indicated that
they would not sign agreements
with the NCC. As one merchant
put it, "I am open for the students
nine months of the year. The other
three months, I take a beating. I
can’t afford to give a discount and
still give high grade service.”
Dr. V. P. Morris
Speaks in Coquille
Victor P. Morris, dean of busi
ness administration, addressed
members and guests of Coquille’s
Rotary Club Wednesday at that or
ganization’s annual “Competitor’s
Day” meeting.
Each member brought a strong
competitor to the noon meeting,
emphasizing good-will among the
city’s business men.
Morris spoke on the “Econ
omic Outlook,” stressing today’s
economic and political framework,
and its effect on business in the
next two decades.
Oregon Holds
Scoring Record
The University of Oregon broke
an all time high score record in 1920
for intercollegiate football in the
Northwest by walloping the Uni
versity of Puget Sound 114 to 0.
The scoring system was different
then, touchdowns were worth only
five points. Captain Taylor was the
spark of the team. This record has
never been reached by any school
while the touchdowns were worth
five points.

Apples will be sold in classes

national women’s advertising fra
ternity.

a Spitz,” the Hood River grower
wasn’t too sure. But they’ll be red

Apple vendors, dressed in plaid
shirts and jeans, will also set up
booths at the Co-op, Side, and Li

Women! Looking For a Man?
OSC Offers Abundant Supply
it s true. Oregon State College
has one advantage over the Uni
versity of Oregon, speaking strict
ly from the girls’ point of view.
In fact the advice might be
given, “To get your man, girls, go
to Oregon State.” Each girl at OSC
is entitled to three and one-fifth
men, and discounting a few who
are married, that is a pretty good
percentage.
A girl at the University of Ore
gon can only fairly claim 2.3 men,
for there are 4078 mean and 1755
women. OSC records this fall show
5146 men to 1617 women, a bigger
ratio of men to women than at
any other institution of the State
System of Higher Education.
Coeds at the Colleges of Educa
tion have between one and two
men as their share. At Southern
Oregon are 485 men to 275 women
(ratio of 1.8 to 1); Eastern Oregon,
325 to 245 (1.3 to 1); and Oregon
College of Education, 318 to 274
(1.2 to 1).
Five years ago the ratios were
the direct opposite, for most of the
men were at war. Oregon State’s
was 3 to 1, with women outnum
bering men 1541 to 468. But the
115 women at OCE didn’t have a
chance. The six men enrolled each
had 19 women from which to
choose.
Every woman always gets just
what she wanted for her birthday
—and can hardly wait to get down
town and exchange it.
