Dormitory Study
(Continued from page one)
Tuesday JIFC meeting.
“I think that the Freshmen
Council will be interested in the
JIFC plan," Carothers told an
Emerald reporter following the
meeting. "However, it will be
necessary to refer the proposal to
the council before opinion can be
accurately ascertained,” Carothers
said.
According to the freshmen pre
sident all organizations where
freshmen live are represented on
the Freshmen Council. The coun
cil membership includes two re
presentatives from freshmen liv
ing off-campus in Eugene and one
representative from freshmen liv
ing in the Springfield area.
The Freshman Council will meet
at S p.m. today in the Student
Union.
In further action the JIFC
amended their constitution in re
spect to individual house repre
sentation. Under the amendment
each fraternity will be allowed a
senior and a junior member on the
council. The senior member must
be a sophomore in academic stand
ing and must not have been a
pledge for a period exceeding two
years. The junior representative
will be a freshman living outside
the fraternity.
A written criticism of JIFC
activities to be submitted by the
out-going president at the conclu
sion of each term was also approv
ed by the council. In other amend
ments the group established future
election procedure.
Red Cross Drive
(Continued from page one)
will be given to those who plan to
contribute $1.
Faculty contributions will be in
cluded in the University total,
which Miss Kuckenberg said Mon
day will be about $2,000. The facul
ty fund-raising drive will be handl
ed through a faculty committee.
This year’s Red Cross campaign
will seek to build up resources de
pleted by a year of extensive Red
Cross activities in fire, flood, and
cold weather relief, Miss Kucken
berg explained. In addition, the
Red Cross has played a consider
able part in relief activities for
xefugees of the Korean war.
The Lane County campaign will
seek additional funds to add to a
total which was taxed heavily by
the recent flood of the Willamette
River. The Red Cross supplied
food and shelter to many victims
of the Glenwood-Springfield area.
All the kids are glad that school
is out, despite the fact that, as
mother well knows, they haven’t
a thing to do.

Vets' Dorms Food Complaint
Hits Portland Papers in '49
By riiil Bi tten*
Complaints concerning meals
served in vets' dorms have appar
ently cropped up before, accord
ing to stories in back files of the
Emerald. A story, telling of some
present student dissatlsfiction with
the food, appeared in Monday's
Emerald.
On Nov. 25, 1949, a letter appear
ed in the Portland papers signed
by 397 residents of vets' dorms;
the students complained that the
food there was “ ‘sometimes ined
ible’ and generally of poor qual
ity," according to an Emerald ac
count.
'The letter brought out that less
than 300 of the 650 students in the
Veterans' Dormitories eat break
fast," an Emerald article, publish
ed Nov. 29, 1049, reported.
An editorial in the same issue
said that the students had gone
about registering their complaint
in the wrong way.
"If vet-dormers think the food
served them is bad, then they have
every right to complain to and
expect answers from the persons
in charge.
•'But the indirect method of
reaching these persons through
news items in state papers brings
nothing but bud publicity to the
University," the editorial stated.
Finally, nfter the letter had been
published in Portland, the Inter
dorm Council met with University
officials to consider what might
be done about the food situation
if one existed.
At the meeting, University offi
cials "expressed regret, .that un
favorable publicity had come to
the University as n result of the
recent criticisms of dormitory
food."
Glenn Winkleblectf, sophomore,
then president of Nestor Hall In
Vets' Dorms, wrote the controver
sial letter and, with two other stu
dents. presented it to the Portland
papers.
He said at a meeting Nov. 30,
1919 with University officials, that
“he would not have taken his let
ter.. .to the Oregonian and the
Oregon Journal last Friday if he
had known the response would be
•like this'," again quoting the
Emerald.
H. P. Barnhart, dormitory foods
director, said that Wlnkleblcck’a
letter contained mime broad Ktate
ments, which looked entirely dif
ferent when one geta down to facta.
Statistics ahowed that a weekly
average of 04',4 of the men in
vein' ate breakfuat.
And, the day after this meeting,
the Emerald came out with an
other editorial:
"It's gratifying and a little
amusing to hear that food has
markedly improved at Vela' dorms ,
the laat two daya.
“There waa ateak at the Com
mons Wednesday when Hendricks
and Straub had atew. Arid the
ateaka were reportedly very tasty
even under floureacent lights.’'
No Direct Action Taken
But, the editorial continued, the
writer "could find no evidence of
a formal Investigation being put in
motion. It appeared that the mat
ter had merely been turned over
to the food director nnd the busi
ness manager with the rut hoi loose
admonition that they do what
they saw fit." y.
There were letters to th-- P!r>ie
