    ^Williams Offers Traffic Solution
For Amazon Flats Housing Area
In the past three and a half
years 12 children have been hit
by speeding automobiles in the
Amazon Flats housing area.
This information was given by
University Housing Director D. H.
Williams in an explanation of the
proposed placing of Amazon traf
fic violation jurisdiction in the
hands of the ASUO student court.
Bills Take the Upswing
(Continued from page two)
feature, and is not at his best.
The Mayflower is second
cheapest, and has second best
in entertainment value with
“Madame Bovary,” starring
Jennifer Jones. The saint to
sinner gal is in between in
this one, and is as capable as
ever.
Unfortunately Van John
son’s first murder picture
“rounds out” the bill—“Scene
of the Crime.” However, a
couple of months ago it would
have cost 72 cents to see each
¥ of these donwtown, and now
a lucky student can catch
them both for 55 cents.
“Prince of Foxes,” and
“Portrait of Jennie” are the
collossal productions at the
Rex. “Foxes” is notable for
its background scenes which
are supposed to be magnifi
cent because they were film
ed on actual location. Person
ally, this, doesn’t cpiite make
up for the picture which has
Tyrone Power looking de
bonair, Wanda Hendrix look
ing' beautiful, and Orson
Welles looking. In “Portrait,”
David O. Selznick’s last film
before moving- out of Holly
wood, Jennifer Jones and Jo
seph Cotten carry on a ro
mance that is difficult to un
derstand but interesting to
watch. Just when things are
getting along nicely the girl
leaves the boy for a vacation
at the beach, the screen turns
green, a larger-than-screen
size hurricane comes up, and
the girl, who wasn’t really liv
ing anyway, is drowned.
Sound effects are magnificent.
Miss Jones is something of a
■*"saint in this one.
The films at the Mac, “Da
kota Lil” and “Amazon
Quest”—ought to be good
for something, maybe for con
scientious popcorn fans who
don’t want to disturb anyone
else in the audience and can
time their chomps with shots
of the six-shooters and yells
of the jungle beasts.

“Luckily, none of the children
has been badly hurt or killed,”
Williams stated. “We are trying to
avoid the possibility of that hap
pening.”
Eugene city police are not re
quired to enforce speeding laws in
the Amazon area, Williams ex
plained. Up to now the University
has had no means of enforcement,
and speeding has been flagrant in
the district.
Williams plans to have the man
agers of the Amazon units depu
tized by the Lane- County sheriff,
if possible. These managers will
then issue tickets to violators, and
cases will be heard by the student
court at its regular Tuesday even
ing sessions.
Parking violations will also be
regulated by the court, the direc
tor added, but speeding is the main
concern in the area at present..
Members of the court, created
by the ASUO Executive Council
last year, are Dick Neely, chair
man; Steve Church, clerk; and Bill
Kirkpatrick, sophomore member.
A. L. Peiterson is faculty adviser.
The court now passes judgment
on student parking violators at its
weekly meeting, 7 p.m. each Tues
day in 6 Friendly.

Professor Talks
On Pre-Maritaf
Sex Relations
By KAREN TERRY
Does sex experience' before mar
riage prevent frustration?
“Probably not,’’ said Dr. Kir
kendall Tuesday night in the third
of his weekly “Marriage” lectures.
“But there is no one answer to the
question of premarital sex stan
dards.”
Many couples believe that such
experience will “cut down frustra
tion,” he said: however, more feel
that it increases it.
Frustration is lessened in two
cases: when it answers a “built up
curiosity concerning sex,” or when
the couple may continue to have
relations whenever they wish.
“When barriers are set up in the
way of continued sex relations af
ter the first time,” he said, “frus
tration seems to increase.”
Personalities Adjust
The notion that premarital re
lations will predict or assist mari
tal adjustment is based on the
idea that adjustment is physical
Kirkendall said. On the contrary,
he believes, it is an adjustment oi
personality.
“If a couple have freedom of
attitude and legitimate ideas, they1
will develop the proper technique
later,” he said.
Many psychologists, he said, be
lieve illegal sexual intercourse pro
duces neuroticism, for if such re
lations do build frustration, it is a
psychological, not physical, malad
justment.
“Sex urgency problems often
center around personality prob
lems,” he said.
Handling Sex Problem
There are several ways we can
contribute to a better handling of
the sex problem, Kirkendall
pointed out:
Better understanding of sex as
a part of the love relationship:
finding of ways in which matured
young people can marry earlier;
and more frankness in male-female
relationships.
Kirkendall’s last “Marriage and
the Family” lecture will be given
next Tuesday night under the
sponsorship of the campus YMCA
and YWCA.
