*}#fXixiK9 TRefronex Salary Boost Due Profs, Students Say By Helen Jackson It’s too bad, for professors, that Oregon students don’t make up the State Board of Higher Education. Every single student asked the question “What do you think of the faculty request to the state board for a 20 per cent pay raise ?” seemed to think it was “the thing,” although for varying rea sons, Charlotte Alexander—senior in speech—“I think there should be a definite increase in pay, because it would give the Oregon campus the opportunity to bring profes sors from other colleges to this faculty. Also it should make those here more willing to stay.” Bev Ostrum—junior in English —“I think it’s a very good idea because they aren’t getting enough pay as it is.” Phil Johnson—sophomore in pre law—“I believe it’s an excellent idea .The cost of living increases necessitate additional income for instructors.” Jim Owens—sophomore in busi ness—“The cry is out for profes sors, and how do we expect to get them if their present pay does not meet the rising cost of living?” Gerry Pearson—sophomore in English—“I think it’s just fine in that it might draw some better professors, perhaps from Eastern colleges. The amount of effort that some of them put into a class doesn’t correspond with the amount they are paid.” Carina Ferguson—freshman in pre-med—“I think they should have it. With everyone else getting pay increases it’s only fair that they too should get larger salar ies.” Joanne Bohmann—freshman in liberal arts—“I think they should get more wages, because often both the husband and wife usually have to work to keep the family going.” Eight Men Pledged By Law Fraternity Eight men from the first year law class were recently pledged to Phi Alpha Delta, national profes sional law fraternity. Pledges were Robert A. Boyer, Thomas B. Brand, Milton O. Brown, Wallace R. Casebeer, Duane Craske, J. Kelly Farris, Herman L. Lind, and Robert C. Snashall. LET'S GO TO CABLES (DRIVE IN) Square Dance Class Meets Seventy-five people met for two hours of square and folk dancing Wednesday night in Gerlinger annex. Miss Rosamond Wentworth, associate professor of physical educa tion, called dances part of the evening. Miss Bettie Owen, instructor in physical education, led the “Kentucky Running Step,” a folk dance from the Appalachian mountain area. In future meetings of the group she will lead more folk dances that have originated in the southeastern region of the United States. The square dance group will meet as usual in the Student Union ball room next week. Power Failure Halts DE Presses A power failure early Thursday morning “stopped the presses” and prevented delivery of the Emerald to most campus living organiza tions. Electricity went out and the press rolled to a stop after only a few copies of the paper had been printed. When service was resum ed, the papers were run off and delivered to the Co-op, Student Union, and other centrally located points for pickup by students. A Eugene Water and Electric Board workman said the Univer sity Press was probably involved in an outage caused by the mis take of another workman in mani pulating some seldom-used equip ment. Never having had occasion to operate that particular switch be fore, the workman believed he had closed the circuit, which remained open until the error was discover ed. Sutton to Appear John Sutton, sophomore in busi ness administration, who Wednes day morning locked himself in-his car when Eugene police stopped him on a charge of violation of the basic rule, was released from jail Wednesday on bail posted by Ray Hawk, director of men’s affairs. Halted by police early Wednes day, Sutton refused to accept a citation, rolling up the windows and locking the car doors. Officers forced open a window and carried Sutton to their patrol car. Sutton was booked at headquarters on charges of disorderly conduct and violation of the basic rule, and then placed in the city jail. According to Hawk, Sutton “felt that the officers were abusive so he crawled into his car and locked; it.” Sutton has been requested to ap pear in court at 8:30 a.m. today to answer charges.
