Wilson explained activities and plans of the Student Union stand ing committees and also present ed a recommendation by the direc torate that the SU resume check room service, j. . _ . Williams Rejects Proposal The recommendation was reject ed by Dick Williams, Student Un ion director, on the ground that the costs of maintaining that area of the SU required a reduction of expenditures. Check room service is now being provided for non-stu dent functions only, Williams said. These groups assume checking costs, he explained. Williams said the recent drop in University enrollment was costing the SU $3,000 and that by dis continuing check room service $2, 200 of this amount could be made up. , NIGHT STAFF Night Editor: Jean Asplund Night Staff: Sarah Turnbull, La Vaun Krueger, Connie Per kins, Phil Johnson If you think we need television comedians, you haven’t been pay ing much attention to some of the commercials.

(AP WIREPHOTO) Graduate Induction Postponement Now 'Legal' Says Headquarters Official word concerning the choice of service and the 30-day in duction postponement for gradu ates was received Wednesday by Ray Hawk, director of men’s af fairs, from the state, headquarters of the Selective Service System. This is the first information re ceived locally from official sources regarding the matter. Quoting a joint release of the Department of Defense and the Director of Selective Service, the state draft headquarters .points out that “The Secretary of De fense, General Marshall, issued an order officially rescinding, in the case of college students, the inter service agreement of Aug. 9, 1948.” Under this agreement no armed service would accept voluntary en listments after a man had been notified to report for his pre-induc tion physical examination. Groupings Reopened At the same time Major General Lewis B. Hershey, director of sel ective service, announced that he would “reopen, in the last month of the college year, the classifica Send Your Shirts With Your Cleaning tion of all students who were order ed to report for induction during the year, but whose induction was postponed” by an amendment to the Selective Service Act, ‘‘and who desire to volunteer by enlist ment in a service of their choice.” This action cancels all previous orders to report for induction, and renews the right of students to en list in any branch where openings are available. No Obligation Noted In making known his intention to reopen classifications Hershey “emphasized that no change in obligation of students to serve was contemplated.” Text of the telegram received by the state director of selective service from Hershey is: “Postpone induction for 30 days of all college students who are be ing graduated at this time and having their statutory postpone ments terminated for that reason. This 30 days’ postponement is to enable such graduates to obtain employment in essential industry. Upon showing of such employment local boards should be requested to reopen the cases of such regist rants and consider classification anew.” Business Manager (Continued from page one) through winter term, 1951, and to be paid: “a. A guarantee of $70, or “b. 8 percent of the first $1760 of advertising income, whichever is greater (a. or b.); plus 25 per cent of all collected advertising revenue from the Oregon Daily Emerald above the total of $1760; "With the provision that the pre sent advertising staff members of the Oregon Daily Emerald be con tinued in their positions at the pleasure of the Student Publica tions Board; with the understand ing that any person so selected by the Student Publications Board serve through winter term, 1951, unless earlier relieved, or not be paid any amount for his services.” By Marilyn Patterson On Jan. 28, 1950, a male figure could be seen beating his way through snow and wind. He was heavily burdened, and could hard ly keep his eyes on the lights of the train depot as he fought his way toward it. That was "Dad—Oregon's Man of the Half Century,” coming down to visit son pr daughter and the 299 other fathers for Dad’s Day weekend. In the depot, he met Hostess Bobbie Chambers and some Skull and Dagger men who took care of his luggage. Then off to the cam pus!
