'’KWAX' Likely
As FCC Nixes
Original Choice
It may be KWAX instead o:
KDUK.
This is the word of Jack Vaughn
station manager of the Univer
sity’s new FM station, who tol(
the Emerald Monday that the cal
letters KDUK have been pronounc
ed “unavailable” by the Federa
Communications Commission.
The station had requested th<
familiar letters KDUK, by whicl
the station has been known on th<
campus since last year. But per
mission to use the letters are uj
to the FCC.
“KWAX was our second choice,’
said Vaughn, “but until broadcast;
start winter term we cannot b<
certain of FCC approval on these.’
While rejecting the request foi
KDUK, the FCC has as yet no
given approval to any other cal
jgtters. KDUC and KWAC weri
’also listed by the station as call
letter choices.

Suspended for 15-Day Period
Taylor’s coffee shop and the College Side Inn drew 15-day sus
pensions of beer selling privileges after the Oregon Liquor Con
trol commission sustained reports from commission examiners
that minors were being sold beer in the two places.
The suspensions were ordered during a Friday meeting of the
liquor commission in Portland and will take effect within 10
clays.
The question of beer sales
near the campus of any college
or university in the state was
set aside by the commission for
later action. The policy-making
decision will probably be hand
ed down by Jan. 1.
In tabling the much-argued is
sue, the commission expressed the
feeling that it required further in
vestigation and study. Members
said it was necessary to confirm
the attitudes of the University
administration and authorities of
the city of Eugene before proceed
ing to establish a policy.
Evidence Discussed
The commission did, however,
discuss evidence collected at an
open hearing held in the Eugene
city hall Nov. 16. Commission Ex
aminer Richard Reed, who Was pre
sent at the Eugene hearing, told
, members that testimony given at
the hearing seemed to indicate that
■ the proximity to the University
campus of places selling beer had
little effect on the problem.
Reed compared the case of the
I Chat & Chew in which minor stu
I dents from the OSC campus, locat
ed 2V2 miles away, had purchased
I beer. He pointed out that distance
in that instance had no bearing on
the sale of beer to students.

Council pakes Action
On Rally Board Upset,
Misplaced Gripe Boxes
1 he Rally Board is being reshuffled again.
The resignation of Jim Fenimore. chairman of the Rally Board
was announced at Monday night’s meeting of the ASUO Execu
tive Council.
The council decided that:
1. Petitioning will begin for another rally board member.
2. Two suggestion Boxes will be olaccd on flip tUot*
students may easily voice their
“gripes.”
3. Future meetings of the
Executive Council will be held
at 7:30 p.m.
“The Rally Board is the only
group that has not been func
tioning to the fullest,” criticized
ASUO President Barry Mountain.
He went on to say that the board
would probably become “better or
ganized, soon” and admitted that
the board had been limited by time
for planning.
Navy Calls Fenimore
Fenimore is resigning because he
is going to get married and has re
ceived his call from the Navy, ac
cording to Mountain.
The council decided that this
new appointment should be limit
ed to an upper classman. Petitions
are open immediately and will
close at 5 p.m. Thursday in order
that they may be screened. Per
sons chosen to appear for inter
views at 7:45 p.m. Monday will be
notified by telephone. The council
suggested that all petitions be as
complete as possible to enable fair
evaluation in the screening pro
cess.
A new chairman of the board
will be chosen after this appoint
ment is made.
A report on the Oregon Federa
tion of Collegiate Leaders recent
meeting at Oregon State College
submitted by 2nd Vice-President
Eve Overback made mention of the
use of suggestion boxes for get
ting student’s comments.
This struck a responsive chord
in the mind of Virginia Wright,
junior representative, who said
that she had two in her closet
which were constructed last year.
