Frosh to Vote
On Constitution
The new constitution drawn up
by the freshman council was vot
ed on by freshman residents in all
houses and halls Monday night.
The proposed constitution was pre
sented to each group by the coun
cil representative. Results of the
vote are still indefinite.
Designed to cover any problem
which might arise in the school
year, the constitution has been
ratified and approved by the coun
cil. If the constitution meets the
approval of the majority of the
class it will go into effect immedi
ately. Standing committees will be
selected to begin work on various
class functions, such as the frosh
picnic.
Council members will return re
sults of the voting at their meet
ing Wednesday night.
Oregon Library
Receives First
New Paint Job
The old section of the Univer
sity Library is now being repaint
ed for the first time since it was
built in 1937, I. I. Wright, super
intendent of the physical plant re
ports.
Thus far the physical plant
workers have painted the reserve
reading room, the reference room,
first floor and basement, the future
reading room in the basement, and
the circulation room.
Ceilings have been painted off
white to aid in the general light
ing, Wright said. The walls of the
phone booths have been painted
black in an attempt to keep people
from scribbling on them.
Within the coming year the
physical plant expects to repaint
the second floor of the library.
Some changes in the lighting in
the building may also be made,
Wright concluded.
Federal aid is simply a system of
taking money from the people and
making it look like a gift when
you hand it back.
Needle-shy Donor Ogles
Nurses as Blood Spills
By Bob Thalhofer
Idle thoughts of one of the Red
Cross’s sacrificial lambs.
. . . .Twenty-one? Well, I guess!
Yes, I filled out one of those cards.
.What’s the tag for I wonder?
I hope they don’t expect any
trouble. Maybe they use these tags
for expeditious handling of the re
mains. . . .Say, aren’t these girls
in the white sweaters and skirts a
bunch of cuties though. And look
at those Pepsodent smiles!
_Take off my jacket? How
could she know it was my shirt ? I
guess it does look like a jacket at
that.
Girls Again
. .. .Oh, boy, a chair and girls
again. . .That guy better not horn
in. I’ll let him know what I think
about line buckers.. ..
Name and address. Wonder how
many times they ask you that
around here? Gads, imagine that
25 years old... .Looks like they’ve
got all the top brass from the RO
out this morning. There’s the Lt.
Col. and Major Palm. Just for
kicks I’d like to ask them if those
suspenders were GI. .. .
I wish they’d take this thermo
meter out of my mouth. How long
does it take to check a tempera
ture anyway ? Ninety-seven point
six and 62 on the pulse. That girl
thought she was pretty funny with
that crack about me not being
alive.
Have to Wait
Holy smokes, you mean we real
ly have to wait for all these peo
ple? Chairs again. I’ll be worn out
by the time my turn comes with
all this hopping from chair to
chair. At least they are warm. I
think I’ll fool them this time and
wait two moves before I hop again.
That skiing is taking its toll
Why there’s that St. Vincent nurse,
wonder how her brother is doing
in the Air Force?... .Why don’t
they let a person answer all these
questions by himself? Must think
we’re all stupid. . . .
Gee, that band is tight on my
arm, and here comes the needle!
Well, it wasn’t too bad consider
ing that I’m getting more needle
shy every time. . . .Look at that
smile on the redhead. She really
must enjoy leading us to the
slaughter... .
Apple Juice!
More tables and more chairs. .. .
Apple juice! They really do this
thing up right. Say, this is good.
No, Major, this isn't my second
cup, I coddle my drinks-Why
must they have use sitting here
where we can see those people ly
ing on those cots? This waiting
is bad enough without that. Look
at that girl, is she pale.
Why, there’s my RO company
commander, what’s his name, any
way ? Say, this is really a great
place to meet people.
Woops, it's my turn to go where
the blood does flow. . . .1 must say,
that everyone is certainly friend

ly around here. This nice old lady
makes me feel like somebody’s
father the way she’s leading me
around... .They could use a little
more padding on these tables if
you ask me, and a little more
length wouldn’t hurt.
Use A Bed Rail
If that woman from Springfield
wants a pillow she oughta rest
her head on the bed rail. I’ve seen
worse. First time she’s ever been
in the SU, huh. It sure is a swell
place all right....
So this cute little nurse is from
Providence! Looks as if I missed
a good deal by not doing a little
more operating out there. St. Vin
cent grads all over.Novacaine!
That’s new. Don’t remember them
using that the last time I went
through this. But the last time
they jabbed me four times, too!. : . .
There’s that cute little girl from
the ski trip. Gee, they’re tapping
her on both sides.. . .And all the
time I thought that I was a blue
blood.
Blue Blood
Half a pint to go... .Heck, no,
I don’t need the stool to get off. . .
More old ladies leading you around.
. .Woops, better not step on that
fella. He really took a dive.
Ah, hah, a cot, no less....
I can’t see staying here for ten
minutes. I feel fine. Gotta get borne
to eat, too. .. .Now, I have to sit
for five minutes. Whatta system,
whatta system!.. .There’s that cute
AOPi. What’s she doing with the
Red Cross uniform?...
Too bad tnese aren’t the two-for
fifteen donuts. .. .Hmm, I never
knew she was a counselor at Hend
ricks. Nice little group we have
herd.Ob, oh! That girl just
keeled over out of her chair against
that fella. Guess I had better get
home to lunch. J
World's Fate Our Problem-Case
(Continued from page one)
the dying soldier who was shown
the theory that “you never give
up the things that make life enjoy
able; but you take them with you,”
Dr. Case demonstrated that it is
within man’s power to answer
these questions and to “become
great by answering life’s ultimates
unafraid.”
“Now is not the time to settle
back, for there is no ease in sight.
But this is a time filled with -pos
sibility,” Dr. Case concluded his
address. *
David Seaman, director of Wes
ley Foundation, introduced Dr.
Case.

If
You admire this kid, don’t you? He’s got
guts enough to stand up for his pitcher
against the whole opposing team.
But this kid has more than guts! He has
grasped one of our very oldest American
traditions—that men and women have the
right to be judged on the basis of their
individual merits. Being “foreign” is noth
ing against an individual—nor is his race—
nor is his religion.
It’s up to each of us to keep disunity
from our families, our community and our
country.
Make sure that you are not spreading
rumors against a race or a religion.
Speak up, wherever you are, against pre
judice, and work for better understanding.
Remember that’s being a good American
citizen.
