It takes 17 hours of education, | including six hours of practice 1 teaching, with a bachelors degree to be eligible for a high school po i sition the first year. Certificate Requirements An additional nine hour require i'ment must be met each year then, ■ until the teacher has forty-five hours beyond the bachelors degree. This is the qualification for a five year teaching certificate. . Mortar Board To Entertain Here, from Ackerman jto Ziniker, are the potential feminine Ein steins of the freshman class.

Mortar Board Meeting A Mortar Board meeting has been called by president Marjorie Petersen for today. The meeting will be held at the Chi Omega house at 12 noon. This year, 342 students from Ore gon’s education school will enter the field. Mrs. Catherine Lauris, secretary of the education school, stated the minimum wage scale in Oregon has been $2,100 and $2,400 with a bachelors degree and two years experience. Conditions Improved “The public is becoming educa tion conscious,” Mrs. Lauris said. “Teacher’s housing conditions have improved' and school systems have modernized for greater enjoyment in the school.” Education advisors suggest that the student prepare himself in two teaching fields. A social studies teacher may have only those class es, but in smaller schools it is often combined with English. Science in structors may also teach math. Combination Fields “There were countless combina tions of teaching fields,” Mrs. Lauris said, “when a survey was taken three years ago. Some seem ed completely weird, but small i schools need teachers with general knowledge.” “The satisfaction in teaching de pends upon the individual,” said R. G. Langston, assistant profes sor of education. "It can and should lead to an enriched and interesting life. If the teacher lias the vitality and interest in society and life it self, she will be adding to the com munity and helping to cast the stu dent’s personality for life.” Spinsters Entertain The Spinsters’ Club, composed of 30 University students and al umni, today leaves for Roseburg where it will present a dance for patients in the Veterans Hospital there tonight. The affair is sponsored in con junction with the Red Cross unit in Roseburg. The club is a charity organiza tion made up mainly of students on campus living in Eugene. i age /, Fagg’s Smoke Dreams By BARBARA FAGG The gay Senior Ball weekend is over, but it left its mark on 'the campus, judging from the number of pins that changed hands. Skitch Henderson’s music must have been quite inspir ing. The DU’s seem to head the list, with four brothers parting company with their badges. Bev “Miss Oregon’’ Kreuger-now wears Willie Dodd’s pin, while Carson’s Mary Gribble and Alpha Thi Joan Wegman are the choices of Fred Van Horn and Bob Chamberlain. Bill Sloan has given his brass to Rebec's Clara Belle Roth, who’s transferred to Monmouth. Speaking of Rebec House, Carol Alzner and Carol Lipmann are proudly showing brand new diamonds. Carol Alzner’s is a Christmas present from Mel Bollsinger. “And she don’t use pep-so-dent.” Well, maybe, but the main problem the I ri Delt freshmen faced was to get their tooth brushes back. Seems the brushes ended up at the Fiji house and the girls had to entertain royally to insure their return. Back to the pin department, Sigma Kappa, Suzy Allen is wearing Bill Teufell’s sword and shield and Kathleen Stryker is sporting the jewels of Pi Kap Dick Thompson. Another Pi Kap to join the ranks is Phil Jones, whose pin now rests beside Ida Pack’s Alpha Gam badge. Two other Alpha Gams didn t make choices quite so close to home.

Pomeroy Writes Article An article written by Earl S. Pomeroy, professor of history, en titled “Wisconsin in 1847: Notes of John Q. Roods,” was published in the December issue of the Wis consin Magazine of History. The Wisconsin Magazine of His tory is a quarterly published by the State Historical Society of Wisconsin. AWS Board Face Coordination Problem In Women’s Activities Greater opportunity and effici ency in women’s activities is the goal of the new Associated Women Students Activity Board formed this term with activity chairmen or representatives from each wo men’s living oi'ganization. Efforts of the board are directed toward coordinating women’s ac tivities and bringing about better inter-house cooperation, so that participation in extracurricular ac tivities will be based more on per sonal interests than on organiza tional “pushing.” Positions 'Unlimited The board has accepted the rul ing by the AWS Council that no University woman can hold more than one major office at a time, ef fective with the coming women’s elections. Working in reverse order, the board approved the council’s plan for a six-week adjustment period for freshman women. Three board subcommittees now active are concerned with: 1. Investigating the merits and workability of an activity point system. 'i. Determining the feasibility of starting a file system of wo men and their activities. 3. Coordinating poster-mak ing, selling and soliciting, and flying speeches, not including VMCA promotion. Activity points are used in- other colleges and universities to en courage wider participation in ac tivities, Anne Case, AWS secre tary, explained. The file system, if put into ef fect, would be used as a reference in choosing committee workers and honorary members, Miss Case added. Publicity Organized Beter known is the coordination committee to apportion posters, flying speeches, and selling. This committee was formed so that when committees need post ers made or flying speeches given or tickets sold in the Co-op, chair men would contact committee (Please turn to page eight) ing- ana Jeaniiic Davis are wear ing ATO pins all the way from the U of W.

Jim Hay cox’s pin and Susan Boahlman’s Kappa key arc side by side, Mel McClean gave his pin to Chi O Phyllis Bladine and over at the Pi Phi house, Mary Margaret Jones, last year’s co-Junior Week end Queen, announced her engage ment to DU Warren Lovell, who is in medical school in the east. Remembering the old adage that "the quickest way to a man's heart is through his stomach" and to prove her domestic ability, Theta Melba Heyser &> Friends baited a cake for Hal Torkelson’s birthday. Quite a cake it was—complete with pink roses and "Happy Birth day Hal.” Things have really been busy around the Kappa house recently.
