*Sofdituttote Wudom. And They Seek Light (Continued from page two) ■ myself, and everyone should have their own interpretation.” You will probably end up with your own interpretation, all right—a highly original one, at that. To add to all these sorrows, this is the time of year when your old drinking buddies turn to coffee and milk; when your girl disappears deep into the library, never to be heard of again; when people go quietly mad and begin chewing on the living-room rug. For this is the time of the year when the body withers, the mind grows dim, and the soul cries out: If finals come, can death be far behind ? Next week we will talk about indi gestion or something a little more pleasant. Vet's Dorm Cars Need Stickers Parking in Vets’ Dorm lots by non-residents will be curbed through use of parking stickers and patrolling of the lots, it was decided at a recent meeting of the Council of Men’s Dormitory Presi dents. Parking stickers will be issued to car owners in the dorms by house presidents. Men from the halls will check the lots each night. Cases of persistent violators will be turned over to the Office of Student Affairs. Guest stickers will be issued to visitors for use while they are in the dorms. The council also named a com mittee to confer with Mrs. Gene vieve Turnipseed, director of dor * mitories, concerning a blanket fire insurance policy for personal be longings of Vets’ Dorm residents, a protection which saved dorm residents at Washington State College much money in a dorm fire there this fall. Grapes of Wrath “Grapes of Wrath,” a movie starring Henry Fonda, will be shown at 7 and 9 p.m. tonight in 207 Chapman. The story, based upon the novel by John Steinbeck, involves the life and hardships of a migratory-worker family in Cal ifornia in the Dust Bowl days of the middle 1930’s.

May Lose European Power me American public is showing such disinterest in United States dealings in Europe that this coun try will eventually concede its European power. American people feel that they are not seeing enough results from American money now being spent in Europe, Raymond Swing, news analyst and jounalist, explained at an informal discussion yesterday afternoon in the Faculty Club. He also spoke last night at Eugene High School. Questioned aiid heard by a small group of faculty members and stu dents, Swing recently returned from a five-month trip to Europe. Swing expressed a pessimistic out look on today’s international situa tion. “Marshall Plan money, on the whole, has been spent well,” he said. “But it will not bring a suffi cient dollar balance to Europe by 1952.” Germany has increased its war potential, the U. S. is not strength ened by such movement, and the American public is becoming iso U.O Jo Observe Ad Week Jan. 8 “Advertising Recognition Week’’ will be held at the University from Jan. 8 to 14, R. D.

A nationalist Germany will be in German interests, he felt. To think it will be subjugated to American interests he termed “self kidding.” On the Russian situation, he be lieved “we’re just as much under a threat of the atom bomb as the Russians—or will be in two years. We must enormously increase our standing military power.” “You have to fall back on the power technique if you've got noth ing else,” he felt. “And we have nothing else.” Also needed is a genuine effort on both sides to settle the issues of the cold war. ‘‘No one will win any war to be fought in the future,” he declared. He expressed favor toward a limited federal world government which would include no sovereign powers. Differences would be set tled by arbitrations and by police courts. This would be one way to help regain the moral leadership which the U. S. has been losing since 1946, he claimed. f Cavallero Band Show Booked At Park Dec. 7 Carmen Cavallero, who will ap pear at Willamette Park Dec. 7, owes his rapid rise to fame in part to the immediate popularity of his first recordings.
