Block Out the Circle (Continued from page two) university to prepare its stu dents for adult citizenship, which includes political ac tivity, we strongly recom mend that the Student Af airs Committee recognize the right of its students to orga nize into any legal political groups. Very truly yours, Young Progressives The recognition of political groups is not a new problem to the Student Affairs Com mittee. The committee is at present working on methods of recognition for political groups, and, according to Donald DuShane, may take action at next week’s meet ing. The Young Progressives have every reason to be in dignant about the run-around the group has been given. We certainly hope the Stu dent Affairs Committee is able to take definite action next week, to avoid similar situations in the future.— Editor.

Current problems and possible solutions of delinquency were brought up, including the Eugene ordinance passed Dec. 13, 1949, which makes parents responsible for the delinquency of their chil dren. Attending the luncheon meeting were H. R. Taylor, head of the psychology department; Leona Ty ler, professor of psychology; E. H. Moore, head of the sociology de partment; Jack Parsons, professor of sociology; Keith Jones, Eugene chief of police; Lewis Sherman, chief juvenile officer from Lane county; and Harold Barton, field secretary of the State Mental Health Association. From the Municipal Research office were Herman Kehrli, direc tor; Deane Seeger, and Ray Un derwood. “Inquiries to the research office show that the delinquency prob lem is widespread,” Underwood said. He added that as a result of the discussion, it was apparent that some further studies needed to be made. Specific suggestion of the meet ing was that a group representing the different agencies responsible for juveniles in the community meet regularly to discuss particu lar problems that should arise. Such a group should strive even tually to make definite recommen dations toward solutions of juve nile delinquency, it was decided. OpeningsMade In Army Here; 45MenNeeded Several openings in the enlisted ranks of Headquarters and Head quarters Company, 426th Trans portation Truck Battalion, were created recently by a Sixth Army order, according to Lt. Col. Charles F. Ziebarth, unit commander, and professor of business administra tion. The Sixth Army’s order changed the designation of the local organ ization’s headquarters unit from a detachment to a full-fledged com pany, thus opening its table of or ganization to at least 45 more en listed men. Men in the organiza tion receive one day’s pay in grade for each meeting attended. “We are particularly interested in attracting members into our or ganization who have an interest and some background in truck transportation operations and maintenance,” Colonel Ziebarth said. “However, previous experi ence is not required since men will receive training in the unit.” All openings are above the rank of private with the following spe cific grades vacant: 2 master ser geants; 1 sergeant first class; 9 sergeants; 15 corporals; and 18 privates first class. There is also an opening for one company grade officer in the commissioned ranks. “These openings should appeal particularly to students interested in gaining some practical training in transportation as well as some additional funds,” Colonel Ziebarth said. Men who are interested in be coming members of the organiza tion may receive further details by contacting First Sergeant C. B. Rufkahr, assistant unit instructor of the Eugene Organized Reserve Corps, or by appearing at the com pany’s next meeting on Feb. 6, at 7:30 p.m. at 1450 West 12th street.
