Last Chance Set
For Purchasing
1951 Oreganas
Last chance to buy Oreganas
begins today, Bob Schooling, busi
ness manager has announced.
Subscriptions will be on sale in
every living organization by Ore
gana house representatives. The
book will also be sold from 9 a.m.
to 5 p.m. in the Co-op and Stu
dent Union, and evenings in the SU.
“This is positively the last
chance for everyone to buy the
Oregana,” Schooling said. “Our
budget must be completed by Nov.
15, and the Oregana cannot under
take the possibility of ordering
books which will not be sold.’’
Schooling added that he would
like to continue sales on the year
book throughout the year, but the
gamble is more than the budget
of the Oregana allows.
The announcement by School
ing concerns only students who
have not yet ordered the Oregana.
Many students placed complete or
partial orders for the book dur
ing- registration. These orders are
not affected by the last chance
announcement, he said. The re
mainder of the money for partially
paid for Oreganas will be collect
ed during winter term registration.
Salesmen in living organizations
will receive free copies of the
Oregana.
Foreign Students
To Observe Polls
An opportunity for foreign stu
dents to “go to the polls” and see
how American elections are con
ducted is being offered by the
YWCA International. Affairs Com
mittee.
All foreign students interested
in this phase of American life are
asked to meet at 4 p.m. at Delta
Gamma. Girls from the committee
will serve as guides.
Besides the visit to the polls,
sample ballots will be banded out
and explained fov the student’s
benefit.
Osborn’s main experience in
housing and town building is on
the business side. He has been
concerned with the town plan, land
disposals, building houses, and
factories and shops in many lead
ing cities of England.
The expansion of cities and the
problems which face every large
city will be the general subject
of Osborn’s lecture. The New
Town Act of 1946, under which 20
towns are to be built with Govern
ment financing will be illustrated
in his talk.
The advocation of controlled
lands and its effect on modern
industrialism will also be explained.
Included in Osborn’s literary
contributions are, “Overture to
Planning,” “The Land and Plan
ning,” and “Green Belt Cities.”
Before his visit to Oregon, Os
born spoke at Harvard, Massa
chusetts Institute of Technology,
Columbia University, Cornell Uni
versity, Syracuse University, Uni
versity of Michigan and the Uni
versity of Chicago.
After his lecture here, Osborn
will speak at the University of
California, University of Southern
California, University of Georgia,
Atlanta University, and the Uni
versity of North Carolina.
Executive Council Hears
Report on Poor Progress
Of Red Feather Drive
he Executive Council heard an unfavorable report on the
progress of the Community Chest Drive at Monday night’s meet
ing in the Student Union.
Also receiving council action were :
1. Approval of four additional members be appointed to the
Rally Board.
2. An intramural championship “Sports Night” to be sport
sorea by the Executive Council.
3. Discussion of having students’
pictures on student body cards.
4. An Executive Council delega
tion to be sent to the Oregon Feder
ation of Collegiate Leaders at Ore
gon State College.
5. Amount of salaries for the AS
UO president and his secretary.
Barbara Stevenson, co-chairman
of the student division of the Com
munity Chest Drive said, “It’s go
ing to take about one dollar per
student to attain the $4,000 goal
that has been set. Many of the
living organizations have made
very poor donations—particular
ly some of the men’s.”
She said that the total collect
ed to date was short of the half
way mark and only two days are
left in the drive.
ASUO President Barry Moun
tain pointed out that the Rally
Board was too small to work ef
fectively. He suggested that more
members be appointed from the
sophomore and freshman classes
to help plan rallies a year ahead
and provide better continuity in
the organization.
“This would keep many of the
members over for the following
year, and make it possible to plan
in advance possibly for Executive
Council approval,” Mountain ex
plained.
The council approved the pro
posal. Petitions will be accepted
at the ASUO office through this
week. The appointment of four
new members will bring the total
of the board to nine.
The council favored the holding
of a “Sports Night,” sometime dur
ing winter term, that will be open
to the public. It would feature
championship teams and individ
uals in competition with those of
other schools. Proceeds will be
delegated to student organizations.
The machinery of the event will

Hands-off Policy Set
For OSC-UO Game
The office of student affairs has
announced the joint hands-off pol
icy between Oregon and Oregon
State regarding acts of vandalism
and other destruction of property
in connection with the annual foot
ball game.
Ray Hawk, director of men’s af
fairs at Oregon, and Dan Poling,
dean of men at OSC, made the
joint statement and said that it
would naturally affect both acts
on the Corvallis and Eugene cam
puses and actions in Portland
where the traditional rivals will
meet on Nov. 25.
The complete statement is as
follows:
“We approve of school spirit.
We believe that it adds not only to
the interest in, but also the values
to be derived from Oregon-Oregon
State, athletic competition.
But we believe that it is best
expressed on the playing field and
in cheering sections, and by justi
fiable pride in our institutions, and
not by destruction and vandalism.
Therefore, we urge our students
not to participate in raids or other
activities likely to result in pro
perty damage or personal injury,
and as a further deterrent, we
agree that:
1. Our students, individually and
collectively, shall be liable for the
costs of repairing damage at the
other institution.
2. We will suspend any of our
students apprehended in such pre
game activities.”
Voters Face
Long Ballot
In Oregon
Salem,—(JP) Some 450,000 pei
sons—the usual 60 per cent of
registered voters—are expected to
vote today in Oregon’s general
election.
They face a long ballot, choos
ing a governor, U. S. senator, con
gressmen, state labor commission
er, supreme court justices, local
judges, legislators and local offi
cers. They will also decide wheth
er to pass nine new laws or Con
stitutional amendments.
The polls will be open from 8
a.m. to 8 p.m.
Democrat Majority
The fact that this general elec
tion is the first in which the Dem
ocrats have had a majority of re
gistered voters has given the Dem
ocratic leaders more hope than
they have had in many years.
Governor Douglas McKay, in of
fice for two years, is a favorite in
newspaper polls to win a four-year
term. His opponent is State Sen.
Austin F. Flegel, Portland Demo
crat, who is a lawyer and form
er industrialist.
Flegel Charges
Flegel’s charges that that the
Governor is controlled by big busi
ness and by liquor and gambling
interests produced the major fire
works in the campaign. McKay
came back fighting with a charge
that Flegel told deliberate lies.
U. S. Sen. Wayne L. Morse, Eu
gene Republican who wants a sec
ond term, is considered a sure win
ner over Howard Latourette, Port
land Democrat who says he i'r
more conservative than Morse.
Latourette has the support, of
