I Loyalty Oaths Result In Disapproval By Herb Voremlierg The loyalty oath as applied to faculty members has long been a controversial subject. When the University of California recently forced all faculty members to sign ; the oath, many resigned, and some were fired for not signing. The Emerald recently ran a column , composed of reactions to the oaths at other universities, so today s question is: “Do you think mem bers of the Uhiversity of Oregon faculty should be required to sign loyalty oaths?”. Norm Olds, junior in business: "Yes, 1 think they should sign the oaths. After all, what have they i got to hide ?” Patty McKy, freshman in liberal I arts: “No, i'think the oaths are j against all our democratic lights. However, action should be taken I against any professor who teaches communistic doctrines in such a way as to influence students to fol low these principles.” Don Paar, freshman in speech: “I really don’t think such oaths are needed. I haven't noticed any pro fessor yet with any socialistic or communistic tendencies.'' David Salholm, senior in busi ness: “No, I don't think so. unless there are specific instances where professors are teaching commun ism and encouiaging students to ‘join the party.' ” Keithe Stewart, freshman in lib eral arts: “No, I don't think it is right to question the integrity of private life of a faculty member, unless he allows his outside activi ties to influence his teaching.” Wayne Carothers, freshman in business: “I think that foicing these oaths here would be stupid. In the first place, asking a person if he is a communist wouldn t prove anything. If he is a commun ist he would only deny it. Secondly, I think a loyalty oath would only tend to drive any communistic action underground, which, instead of improving the situation, would I only make it harder to cope with.

The Order of the O discussed 111 i> question earlier this week, but the members failed to reach an agreement. A similar situation existed in the spring of 1947. Awards for golf and tennis were under consideration. It finally was decided to give no minor awards and to give letters only to those who demonstrate hard work as well as ability. Whether or not this policy will apply to skiing has not been determined. President Mountain recently stated that he had dis cussed the matter with the ASUO Executive Council and that? “we realize that skiing is in the embryo stage and in order to continue to make it a major sport at the University, the Execu tive Council is going to do all in their power to promote and en courage the continuance of the ski team." “One of the possible ways of encouraging skiing at the Univer sity of Oregon,” he added, "is to award varsity letters to those men who have proven themselves to be top skiers and qualifying as such for a varsity award.” Mountain concluded, “I know that they will be able to make a very fine showing this weekend at the Sugar Bowl in Califor nia ... and through their efforts in this meet, we hope that the decision of awarding letters will be made easier.” We hope so, too.
