Cerf to Discuss Changing
Styles of Humor Tonight
By Adeline Gabardino
The amazing Bennett Cerf will talk at 7 :30 p.ra. tonight in Mc
Arthur Court on "Changing Styles in American Humor.-’
A reception for students and faculty honoring Cert will he
held after the speech, at 9:15 p.m. in the 1 fads’ Lounge of the
Student Union, sponsored by the SI Board and Mortar Board,

writer, jmlilislicr, compiler of
anthologies, and current col
umnist. Hennett Cert" continues
to amaze all who know him
with his remarkable ability to
keep so many irons in the pro
verbial fire."
Corf began his career as a hum
orist early in life. As editor of
“The Jester,” humor magazine at
Columbia University, he enlivened
its pages considerably through his
ability.
"A supersalesman is one who can
sell a man with a Ffii Beta Kappa
key a double-breasted suit,” said
Q*rf who found himself upon grad
uation from Columbia in 1920 a
member of Phi Beta Kappa as well
us the possessor of a journalism

degree.
After his graduation Cerf work
ed at the same time as a reporter
on the New York Herald Tribune
and a clerk in the Stock Exchange.
He came into his own as a pub
lisher when he bought the Modern
Library Series. Later he founded
Random House. As its president he
read the manuscripts for "Guadal
canal Diary,” decided to publish it,
and contracted for the manuscript
within eight hours.
Twenty-seven years of work with
books and their authors have given
Cerf a comprehensive view of the
literature of the times.
In the last few years, with the
publication of his five books of
humor, Corf's name has become a
by-word in American homes where
readers have chuckled over his col
lections of humorous stories: "Try
and stop Me,” “The Pockctbook of
Jokes,” "Anything for a Laugh,"
"Laughing Stock,” and his latest,
“Shake Well Before Using.”

second meeting ended with a
motion passed unanimously,
with all hut three houses be
longing to the party in attend
ance.
The first meeting was held at
4 and the second at 6:30 p.m.
In explaining his reason for call
ing the special meetings, Carey
said that Millard Kinney, president
of Phi Kappa Sigma, had request
ed that he do so after learning
the sentiments of his fraternity.
Carey said that Kinney felt a
two-week waiting period until the
next scheduled AGS meeting would
lead to "repercussions in his house,
so he asked for the special meeting.
Kinney later gave reasons for
the fraternity's move, saying Phi
Kappa Sigma was "dissatisfied
with the work of USA," and that iH
wholly approved of the "clean-up ’
of AGS, and its policies and pro
cedures as set up in its new con
stitution.
He also added that his house
felt “all Greeks should be united on
the campus in as many ways a.
possible."
When asked if he understood the
provision in AGS' constitution that
prohibits houses from having can
didates for ASUO offices for one
year following their readmissio 1
into the Greek bloc, Kinney said
that the constitution had been dis
cussed in Monday's chapter meet
ing.
Senior AGS Representative Merv
Hampton said. "Then it's clear that
this is not a move calculated for
political expediency.’’ Kinney
agreed.
Phi Kappa Sigma was one of
eight Greek houses on campus that
withdrew in May 1948 from the
Affiliated Students Association,

Co-educational Living
Suggested to ASUO
By Larry Hobart
Co-educational living will be
established on the University of
Oregon campus and the entire
ASl’O Executive Council will be
impeached -— if suggestions found
in the ASUO suggestion box are
carried out.
The novel plans for the improve
ment of campus life were revealed
Monday evening when ASUO pre
sident Barry Mountain presented
the student notes to the Execu
tive Council.
Donald DuShane, director of stu
dent affairs, spoke briefly on the
proposed co-edueational living pro
gram in connection with deferred
living. The student suggestion de
clared that plan would “benefit
all students.”
One irrate student suggested
that the "John and Marcia" record
in the Student Union be smashed
so that he could study in the Soda
Bar.
Practical suggestions offered by
members of the student body in
cluded the building of a new swim
ming pool to replace the 50-yeai
old structure now in use, a central
location for turning in petitions
for campus jobs, orientation meet
ings for petitioners, and the resum
ing of coat-checking services in tho
SU.
Concrete suggestions were given,
to council members by Mountain
for more detailed checking as to
their plausibility.
