■ 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.
A short subject will be shown
along with the main feature.
Everyone is invited to attend the
movies which are sponsored by the
Student Union.
Autumn approaches the year’s
little breathing spell between the
hay fever and the cold.

News Analyst Swing Claims
US. 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. Millican, pro
fessor o f advertising, disclosed
Tuesday.
The week is being sponsored
throughout 11 Western states by
the Advertising Association of the
West. It affords clubs and other
media the opportunity to present
to the public the advantages of
advertising.
Alpha Delta Sigma, men’s ad
vertising fraternity, and Gamma
Alpha Chi, women’s advertising
fraternity, will participate in the
program at the University.
Committees are being formed at
the present time, and tentative
plans call for speakers, posters,
editorials, and news stories head
ing up the value and potency of
advertising.
lated by indifference.
“It’s enough to scare the life out
of you,” he stated.
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.
