pledging early in winter term.
♦ ♦ ♦
Following the agreement for fall
term men's rushing reached Tues
day by the Interdormitory Council
and Interfraternity Council, ASUO
President Barry Mountain released
the following statement to the
student body:
“I am most happy to report to
the student body that through
close coperation by IDC and IFC
a sincere program has been work
ed out for the whole year, con
cerning pledging, loyalties, and
cooperation between all groups
concerned.
“In the past there has been
much discussion concerning the
ability of the Independents and
Greeks to be able to work together.
This action should dispel any
doubts that Oregon students can’t
work together when they wish.
“The true success of this pro
gram will fully depend upon the
spirit with which both groups in
augurate it. The final result of a
successful program will do more
to knit the student body of the
University of Oregon into one
group.
“This should be a signpost to
the Administration and to the stu
dent themselves indicating that
no student problem is too great
that it can’t be settled agreeably
by student government.”

GOP Sweeps
Tuesday's Elections
(Continued from page one)
hot campaign between Dirksen and
Lucas, with bigwigs of both parties
personally stumping for the can
didates.
Millard Tydings, Maryland’s
Democratic senator, was upset by
John M. Butler, Republican.
Taft Wins
“Mr. Republican,” Senator Rob
ert Taft of Ohio, won his seat
back again in the Senate, despite
the fervid opposition of organized
labor.
In California, Governor Earl
Warren smashed his Democratic
opponent James Roosevelt by more
than 800,000 votes. For U. S. Sen
ator from the same state, Demo
crat Mrs. Helen Gahagan Doug
las was snowed under by Richard
Nixon, Republican, who piled up
a lead of more than 300,000 votes.
Heavy victories in their own
states enhanced the chances of
Taft and Warren for their party’s
presidential nomination in 1952.
Biggest discussion among the
Democrats was who would succeed
defeated Illinois Senator Scott
Lucas as the administration’s ma
jority leader. Among those men
tioned for the job are Wyoming’s
O’Mahoney, New Mexico’s Ander
son, Arizona’s McFarland, and
Georgia’s Russell.
New York Results
Gov. Thomas E. Dewey was
swept into office, but he couldn’t
drag the rest of his ticket with
him. Democrat incumbent Senator
Herbert H. Lehman defeated
Dewey’s former lieutenant gover
nor Joe Hanley, with Republicans
and Democrats splitting the state
legislature seats evenly. The Re
publicans formerly had a three
seat majority.
Another upset came in New
York, where acting Mayor Vincent
Impelliteri, running on an inde
pendent ticket after being snub
bed by the Democrats, defeated
both major party nominees to win
the post of mayor.
In Oregon:
Senator Wayne Morse, Governor
Douglas McKay, and other Repub
licans rode the crest of a tidal
wave of Republican victories here.
Stunned Democrats, confident be
fore the election because they had
the lead in voters registered, could
only gasp “wait until next time.”
All four Congressional districts re
turned their incumbent Republi
can congressmen.
Liquor Measure Fails
The proposition to prohibit pro
motive advertising of liquor—one
of the most controversial on the
ballot—was roundly defeated by
over 150,000 votes. Voters also de
feated the legislative reapportion
ment proposal, and approved the
remaining seven with many pre
cincts still to be heard from.
In local elections, Portland’s
civil rights ordinance seemed
headed for defeat. The controver
sial measure, fought by hotel and
restaurant men, was being beaten
by a close 6,000 vote margin, with
only half the city’s precints re-j
porting. I
