The show has an air of excite ment about it in its pre-filmtime advertising and write-ups—segre gated audience, the registered nurse in attendance, the hygienist who will lecture, the provocative illus trations accompanying the ads, all lead many to expect something other than what they get. But few peope who pay their 70 cents admission to find out what’s going on in the Lane will be dis appointed. If not an entertaining evening as some may have hoped, it is at least an interesting exper ience. The show has been playing to full houses. Women can get into the picture at 2 and 7 o’clock showings; men can see it at 9 o’clock. The story is of a sweet, intelli gent high school girl, Lois Marsh, who had never been told about sex by her parents. She has an affair with the boy to whom she is en gaged, and discovers after he has left for college that she's going to have a baby. She can never get courage up to tell her parents even that she is engaged, since they consider her still a little girl, but she does tell her boyfriend that she’s going tc be a mother. He gets killed in an automobile accident when driving back from college to marry her. Lois is naturally worried and confused; and finally gets reluct ant advice from an older friend who gives her money and the ad l (Please turn to page seven) “By the end of this month, we will have a University civil de fense program so organized as to enable us to take action within 24 hours' notice if necessary," S.

To Name Officials “Officials from the faculty in charge of housing, hospitalization, emergency building repair, food, sanitation, and communications will be named soon,’’ Dean Little said. Certain buildings on the campus offering most protection and ade quate space will be designated as atomic radiation shelters.

UO to House Evacuees Fraternities, sororities, dormitor ies—all campus living organiza tions will be used for housing evacuees, as necessity demands. In emergencies such as housing, the University and city of Eugene will exchange facilities, "Heat, food, electricity, water-, and other utilities will probably be supplied by the physical plant,’’ added Dean Little. A secretariat will be organized to handle statistics. Tentative plans call for the location of official gen eral headquarters to operate from the speech department, communi cation facilities there being super ior to those of other campus build ings.
