Song Leaders Appear at Rally The appearance of the five new song leaders sparked the rally Thursday afternoon in front of McArthur Court, which heralded the departure of the football team for Saturday’s game with Idaho at Moscow. An automobile parade through the campus from 11th and Hilyard to McArthur Court, preceeded the rally, which was held at 3:45 p.m. The parade began at 3:25 p.m. Although a much larger crowd than the estimated 150 was ex pected, delay in announcing the rally was blamed for lack of at tendance. The team left the cam pus at 4 p.m., and the rally board was unable to schedule a rally which would match previous ones held in the Student Union ball room. The five new song leaders par ticipated together in public for the first time in a routine set to “Mighty Oregon.” The yell squad, headed by Ron Symons, led the assembled students in some pre departure yells.

Some delay in making the decision was due in part to a desire by the student attairs coimnit tee to consider any action the Board of Deans might make in regards to the effect such a pro posal would have on Saturday morning classes. Although the approval was giv en without hearing from the Board of Deans, committee members ex pressed little doubt that the new closing hours would seriously ef fect attendance at Saturday class es. Home Fires to Burn Donald M. DuShane, chairman of the committee, stated that the most persuasive argument for ap proving the program was that it would keep students on the cam pus throughout the weekend. DuShane said that there had never been any serious objection to the plan—outside of the effect on Saturday classes—but that some members of the committee felt action could be delayed for a few weeks with no harm incurred. However, DuShane declared that the new system should work as well as the old one. “The mere matter of forty-five minutes should make no difference to any one.” Calendar More Satisfactory Satisfaction with the new hours was expressed by Barbara Steven son, AWS president, who declared that the new hours should make the student social calendar much more satisfactory. “We now have two nights to work with,” Miss Stevenson declared, “and can ar range a social calendar to handle the problem of engaging name bands for dances. House dances can now be held on one night, and student dances on other nights. It nearly doubles the possibilities for a social program.” ASUO President Barry Moun (Please turn to payc cif/ht) UO Reserves 1,500 Tickets For OSC Game Fifteen hundred tickets for the Oregon-Oregon State game in Portland Nov. 25 have been reserv ed for winners of Wednesday’s ticket drawing, Athletic Director Howard Lemons announced Thurs day.

Johnston, a former University of Oregon stu dent now vacationing in Eugene, explained that there are few of ficial titles on Life, but his work deals with the foreign scene. Over coffee at the Student Un ion—with which building the form er Webfoot was much impressed —Johnston explained something of the way Life covers the world, and discussed briefly foreign af fairs. Merchandise Democracy “In our relation with the coun tries of the Far East, we must try to merchandise our product, whjch is democracy,” he said. “Wc must talk to, and listen to the people of these areas, rather than trying to hand them ready-made governments. Particularly, in Ko rea we should do more than just tell the Koreans to take President Syngman Rhee back.” Johnston, a student here in 1937 and 1938, feels that the U. S. has on occasion put itself in ridiculous positions through “following the Communist line—in reverse.” He hopes for adoption of a positive policy. “We should look for allies who are democracy, rather than just against Communism,” he stated. Explains Life Organization Explaining Life’s setup for in ternational picture and news cov erage, Johnston noted that the magazine keeps photographers spotted about the world, so that “there is usually someone pretty close when something breaks.” Does the magazine ever get ad vance tips on where a “break” i3 likely to occur? The answer is “sometimes.” A small group of staff members for example, was alerted before the amphibious landing at Inchon in Korea which probably was the turning point of that action. A correspondent will often ac company the Life photographer, but Johnston remarked with a grin that suggested personal ex perience, “you usually wind up carrying the photographer’s equip ment.” The start of the Korean war found him working on Life’s pic ture record—376 pages worth—of (Please turn to paye eiyht)
