Speculation Begins For UO Ugly Man By Helen Jackson “Who do you think is the cam pus ugly man?" The Emerald ad portrayed five possibilities but they all looked like they had stepped from the pages of Tennyson's “Idllys of the King." Surely no Oregon man has that “medieval look"! But it seems that three people had opinions anyway. When asked "who do you think Is the campus male 'Nancy O the following had their ideas. Harriet Vahey. sophomore in liiieral arts—“Gee, I'd say Jim Loscutoff! I never did think he was ugly but he does resemble the ugly man third from the left in the Emerald ad. It's that profile that brought my attention to it. Course I haven't been lining the men up in the ‘ugly* category.” Ernie Baldinin. junior in political science—“As much as I'd like to say Bill Carey. Barry Mountain has it head and shoulders above the rest. I've thought about Barry in that capacity for sometime. Every one would agree if they could see him at eight o'clock in the morn ing—that is. when he gets up." Barbara Keelan. freshman in liberal arts—“Oh. I'd say Bill Carey. It's pretty hard to narrow the field down but Bill is pretty outstanding. He runs true to the character of the fellows in the ad. He s my choice." Of course, nothing is settled and the question still remains and the ad is still running. But it is inter esting to get opinions. Who is the ugliest man on the Campus? The only cattle in the Oregon county prior to 1837 belonged to the Hudson's Bay Company. rALLEN EDMONDS PffjHOIS OP I SHOES OP f They're right — from the mo ! rr.ent you try them on.

Soon the air above Howe Field will really be swarming with hard horse-hide covered spheres propelled through the energetic efforts of downs of sun-bronied youths, since the home season opened Monday. And who will l*e watching this spectacle. Drippv-nosed kids? Bleacher coaches? ( o-eds? Yes, they’ll all be there, but the most important on-looker will be that dauntless duck. Puddles. For Puddles, the University of Oregon's feathered mascot. Is the school’s most ardent fan and possesses an esprit de corps tar exceed injr niauv of the-ntudeiit* that hi* rcprcaentn. Puddles now resides at the home of Athletic Director I-eo Harris. The fearless fowl is at the present time regaining his composure fol lowing his return'from the OSC campus two weeks ago where he was held captive during the final basketball series between the Melifoots and the Beavers. Intimate reports trom sources close to Puddles indicate that t e battling bird is actually h homebody and quite content to remain In Eugene, contrary to information released by OSC students. At any rate. Puddles will Is- in there pitching for the Webfoots during the 1951 baseball1 season. WSSF Regional Official Tells Plight of Refugees “American students may. feel they are poor but they have no real value of money in terms of a refu gee student in Germany or Greece or Southeast Asia.” Mrs. Gladys Lawther, regional secretary for the World Student Service Fund drive, said Monday. Mrs. Lawther, who will be on campus until Wednesday, is help ing with the interpretation of what WSSF is and is distributing mater ial from the regional offices in Portland in preparation for the WSSF drive which begins officially Apr. 9. "It is frightening to see the apathy that has developed among student groups in meeting student needs throughout the world.” Mrs. Lawther stated. She also tied in the thought that although the military is spending tremendous sums of money, very little is being spent on the positive side, such as education, which will lead to world peace and understanding. An Oregon Alumna Being an Oregon alumna, Mrs. Lawther said “its a real thrill to come track and see how the drive is progressing.” In her' capacity as regional secretary, she visits cam puses in Oregon, Washington, Idaho and Montana and arranges speakers for WSSF drives. One of the particular aspects of the WSSF drive, according to Mrs. Lawther is that there is no quota. “To me the most dramatic illustra tion of the uselessness of a quota lies in the situation in Indonesia. There are 3,000 college students in a country of 80 million people with only 15 months of independence in its history./ How can you establish a quota when the need goes on and on?” -~ Assaiii to Get UO Funds Assam, the section of India to receive Oregon WSSF funds, faces a similar situation with the added tragedy of having the worst earth quake since 1897 striking the coun try last fall. Appeals have come into the regional offices from all over the world including Yugo slavia, Mrs. Lawther pointed out. The unique aspects of the Ore gon WSSF drive, according to Mrs. Lawther, Is the Vodvil show. "Many campuses have carnivals or some similar event but the Vodvil show is different. Many campuses do nothing beyond solicitations,’’ she said. In Both Capacities Mrs. Lawther will be acting in both her capacities, as regional WSSF secretary and as regional YWCA secretary, working with the solicitors and committees of WSSF in preparation for their drive be ginning Monday, and also meet ing with the senior and sophomore Y cabinets and the advisory board. Although Mrs. Lawther is not here to recruit staff members for the national Y, she would be glad to talk with interested students about that work, according to Miss Lois Greenwood, campus YWCA executive director. Appointments to see Mrs. Lawther may be made by calling the Y. This weekend, Mrs. Lawther was a featured speaker at the senior Y cabinet retreat.
