During' the war he was a stu dent at the University of Amoy in China. He told of countless stu dents who came to college out of occupied China—many on foot. “These students came unable to pay even for room and board,’’ he said. "WSSF gave them the money. In return they did work and re search for the University." Shyun was a supervisor in China for the Social Educational Serv ice. He taught in a prison. He lived with the poverty of his people. “In war-torn countries the stu dents do not have money to go to school,” he said. He urged that “in this land where students do have opportunity they will contribute their aid and efforts to those in need.” A graduate student in political science, Shyun has been at the Uni versity of Oregon for two years on a scholarship from the National Student Relief Committee in China. Malayan Toh Lee Tan, soph omore in liberal arts, also spoke of the hardship of students in her na tive land. "Unless you have money,” she said, “you cannot go to school in Malaya. The number of students permitted to attend is very limited. The young people are eager for more education, but it is too ex pensive.” Miss Toh is studying here on a foreign student scholarship. Last year she attended a Quaker school in Iowa. Faculty Passes On Incompletes, Degree 'Musts' Faculty members Wednesday passed two motions concerning the removal of incomplete grades and requirements for the bachelor’s degree. The new legislation on incom pletes states: "To remove an incomplete, a student must complete the course within his next three terms of resi dence in the University, or at such earlier date as the instructor, dean, or department head may specify." An amendment which would have changed an incomplete to F after the following three terms of resi dence was defeated. Also approved by the faculty was the repeal of the requirement that students must have minimum of 45 hours after obtaining the Junior Certificate before being granted a bachelor’s degree. In defense of this motion. C. F. Weigle, who presented both mo tions, said that although the pur pose of the rule was desirable in relieving pressure on the Academic Requirements Committee, the pen alty imposed was too severe. Weigle is chairman of the special Committee for the Study j of Academic Regulations. Men Wanted ... Desperately needed: men! No mad rush, please: the men are needed for stage crew work at j the All-Campus Vodvil show Apr. 14, and must know something! about lighting.

Do You Know a Rumor—j when you hear one?J Daring the war we knew enough to mistrust rumors and particularly knew how dangerous it was to spread them. We knew then that rumors affected our unity, and unity was vital to winning the war. But perhaps we don’t know that rumors are just as dangerous today as they were during the war. Because — rumors about other groups, other religions and other races always threaten our national unity—without which we cannot hope to survive. Be an active citizen—help keep your country strong, united and secure—a good place in which men can live together, prosper together and pursue happiness together. Make sure that you are not spread ing rumors against a race or reli gion. Speak up, wherever you are, against prejudice, and work for f better understanding. Remember that’s being a good American. Accept or reject people on their individual worth
