IFC, Dorms Approve
(Continued from page one)
Shane was reached off campus.
Present at the dinner meeting of
the IDC were all the dormitory
counselors, James D. Kline, direc
tor of freshmen counseling, Donald
M. DuShane, director of student
affairs, Tex Goodwin, advisor to
the Interfraternity Council and
Mountain.
Three Hours of Discussion
The adoption of the program by
the IDC came after nearly three
hours of discussion by dormitory
presidents and the dormitory coun
selors.
Bill Clothier, president of the
IDC told the Emerald that full
agreement and a discussion of all
problems involved in a new rush
ing program must be had before
the program was adopted by the
IDC.
Clothier invited Goodwin, Du
Shane and Mountain to attend the
meeting of the IDC to answer any
questions the members might have.
Interferes with Counseling
Interference with the Univer
sity’s freshman counseling pro
Sim was presented as "a major ob
tion to any rushing during the
freshman year. In addition, the
problem of divided loyalties arose
to hamper final settlement of the
plan.
Speaking for the counselors,
Walt Freauff, counselor of Mc
Chesney Hall told the group that
inability to have freshmen in the
dormitories in complete contact
with the dormitories would serious
ly hinder the counseling program.
Freauff also pointed out the
problem brought on by open rush
ing, which will be allowed under
the adopted program. Freshmen,
said the counselor, should settle
down after Thanksgiving to study
for finals. The temptation of at
tending fraternity functions, con
cluded Freauff, will probably be
too much for the freshman pledges.
No Control Over Loyalties
Clothier, however, pointed out to
the group that under the present
rushing program, dormitories
would have no control whatsoever
over either the loyalties or the time
of the freshmen.
In the matter of divided loyal
ties, Clothier pointed put that no
one can force freshmen to support
dormitories. “You can’t legislate
loyalty,” the IDC president added.
The group asked DuShane to ex
plain the position of the Adminis
tration in the entire rushing pro
gram. DuShane told the group that
the compromise of last year under
which the University is presently
regulating its rushing and living
program was reached after the IDC
and the IFC failed to reach an
Agreement on when rushing should
take place.
Explained Need for Compromise
“At that time,” said DuShane,
“I explained to the groups that
some sort of compromise must be
worked out which would be satis
factory to both groups. If the IDC
and the IFC were unable to reach a
settlement then the Administra
tion would be forced to take ac
tion.”
DuShane added that the present
program was admittedly unsatis
factory. “It was a compromise, and
I would not want it to be made a
pattern for future years,” the direc
tor of student affairs added.
Agreement on some sort of pro
gram now, Clothier told the group,
would end the present mistrust of
the IFC and the IDC.
Expect to Cooperate
“We can’t automatically assume
that the Interfraternity Council
would conscientiously attempt, to
wreck the counseling program or
the living-in plan. If we adopt this
program we expect to cooperate
with the IFC in carrying it out. We
must assume that the IFC will give
^us the same cooperation.”
Asked to explain why the "hands
off” policy of the IFC failed, Good
win told the group that the IFC
was “naive” last spring when the
program was adopted.
“We do not contend that the
program is working. However,
solving the problem brought on by
the ‘hands off’ policy cannot be
done in any short time.”
In general, IDC leaders expressed
satisfaction with the adopted rush
ing program. On the basis of the
present program, Clothier commen
ted that the dormitories will get
the loyalty of freshmen for the
entire year, instead of being forced
to give those loyalties up after the
sixth week of winter term.
Oregon Re-elects

publicans.
The fourth Congressman, Rep.
Lowell Stockman of Pendleton, was
leading 16,894 to 12,062 at 2:30 a.
m. over State Senator Vernon D.
Bull, LaGrande Democrat, showing
a decisive lead for Stockman.
The Republican margin was sur
prising because Democrats led in
registration for the first time in
the state’s history.
Latourette Concedes
Democratic candidate Howard C.
Latourette conceded the election to
Morse at 10:30 p.m. after Morse
gained an early 3 to 1 lead.
Returns from 1,201 of the state’s
2,018 precincts at 2:30 a.m. re
ported 146,464 votes for Morse,
48,694 for Latourette, and 5,332
for Harlin Talbert, progressive
party candidate.
One of the most heated issues
between Latourette and Morse was
over creation of a Columbia Val
ley Authority—which Morse op
posed.
Named consistently among the
ten top Senators by Washington
newspaper correspondents, Morse
has often crossed party line to vote
for what he calls “principle above
politics” and the “sane liberalism
of Lincoln.” At present he is a
member' of the Senate Armed For
ces Committee.
Morse, former Dean of the
University of Oregon School of
Law, in 1945 became United Sta
tes Senator after 20 years of teach
ing experience. His home is in Eu
gene and he is associated with a
local law firm. A daughter, Nancy,
19, is now enrolled at the Univer
sity.
Latourette, former Speaker of
the House of the Oregon Legisla
ture and Democratic National Com
mitteeman for Oregon, is from
Portland.

Democratic Loss
(Continued from page one)
Republicans seated nine other gub
ernatorial candidates, while the
Democrats captured eight posts.
GOP leaders were making no
outright claim that they would con
trol the new Congress, but they had
succeeded in capturing three Sen
ate seats formerly held by Demo
crats.
The score board at 3:30 a.m.
(EST) showed that in the fight for
Senate control, the Democrats had
elected 14 of their candidates. This,
with 31 holdovers, gave them 45
seats, four short of a majority.
They had upset no Republicans.
The GOP had elected 14 of their
men. These, with 29 holdovers,
gave them 43 seats, six short of a
majority.
All told, 432 House seats were at
stake. The Republicans took three
seats in Maine in September.
In the House, Republicans had a
net gain of seven seats shortly after
•3:30 a.m. (EST).
They had elected 112 members
to 191 for the Democrats. Many
Republican victories were in the
usually solidly Democratic South.
The GOP was leading in 45 still
undecided contests, and trailing in
30 others.
To win control of Congress, they
needed a net gain of 49 seats in the
House and seven in the Senate.

Some of the highlights of the
measures are:
The Legislators' Compensation
bill will increase the salaries of
law-makers from §400 to $600 with
a travel allowance.
The state hopes to save $1,200,000
with passage of the measure on
Tax Credit for Educational Build
ings. This would be done by substi
tuting general obligation bonds at
a lower interest rate for self-liqui
dating school buildings.
The Oregon War Veteran’s Fund
will establish an increased loan
fund for veterans’ home and farm
loans.
The Basic School Support Fund
will provide an additional $30 per
student for educational purposes.
This will be provided in excess of
the present six per cent limitation.
Veterans may be supplied with
war bonuses if the Veteran’s Com
pensation Fund passes. This will
include all bona fide Oregon resi
dents who enlisted from Oregon
and served over 90 days. The limit
is $600.
The Legislative Reapportionment
measure will give more representa
tion to heavily populated areas
with the stipulation that no dist
rict may have over 25 per cent of
the seats in the House.
“I worked hard in the campaign,”
Flegei said, “and have no regrets
at running. We were simply caught
in a national landslide.”
600 U.S. Airplanes
Bomb North Korea
SEOUL UP)—American air power
blasted Red positions near the
northwestern Korean border Wed
nesday in the second greatest air
attack of the Korean war. Moie
than 600 planes were used.
The big raid against cities, towns,
bridges and Red positions came as
the Tenth Corps on the Korean east
coast announced the arrival of ele
ments of the U. S. third infantry di
vision at Wonsan port of the Sea of
Japan.
There was no indication of where
the third division would be de
ployed.
Close to Soviet Border
The big air strike was flown
through cold, blue skies. The attack
ranged all along the Manchurian
frontier, almost to the Soviet Si
berian border. Pilots had orders to
make certain their bombs fell south
of the Yalu River boundary and not
in Red China’s Manchuria.
The main target was Sinuiju,
near the west coast. B-29s and B-26
bombers set out to flatten the town
with explosives. Sinuiju is a major
supply and transportation center
for the Chinese and North Korean
Communist forces.
Many of the Sino-Reds fighting in
North Korea crossed the Yalu River
at Sinuilu.
