Grant Explained By IDC President Bob Calverloy, Inter-Dormitory Council president, said Tuesday that money voted by the council to support the United Students Association was taken from the funds left over from last year, not from hall dues collected this year. Several dormitory men had pro tested to the council Thursday night, saying that the council's ac tion in voting $15 to support the United Students Association in the -ecent elections was "taxation with out representation." They said that, in effect, they were being taxed to support a po litical party which they do not be lieve in. since the council's money comes from dues collected in dor mitories. This year, many dorm residents are pledges of Greek houses in the Associated Greek Students. "The money we voted came from funds left over from last year," ( Calverloy said, "when the men in the dorms were independents. It did not come from money collected in hall dues this year." Oreganos Here For Non-buyers All uncompleted payments for the 1951 Oregana have been can-! celled, making some HO Oreganas available for the first comes, Busi ness Manager Bob Schooling an nounced Thursday. Students who failed to complete the Oregana payments under the | partial payment plan have for feited their original $3 payment, Schooling explained. Oreganas thus made available and those contracted for but still unclaimed will be distributed from 1 to 5 p.m. today in the Oregana office, third floor of the Student Union. Some 900 Oreganas, all paid for, are still unclaimed, Schooling said. The business manager urged any student who knows of friends who have ordered yearbooks and have left school to notify the Oregana office so that books can be mailed to them at their home addresses. «*.1-.,... ia!Onfy s ,c ,w.«3rs U co,,sl>tut/o„ re!7 ^at,0n e,i r,cfs »ie,n ncrsmp 10 social sororities. iraierniiics and "The group felt that the repre-, sentation provided the indepen-1 dents in such a party would defi-| nitely be in a minority, and that they would not be fairly repre- j Merited," said Bill Carey, outgoing AGS president. Comments made by delegates during discussion of the proposal ranged from "we have a strong, i unified party now, let's keep it that way" to "this is an opportu nity for us to strengthen the party in the eyes of the University." Several delegates felt that coali tion parties would someday be j present on the campus, and that1 New AGS Officers Larry Dean was named presi dent of the Associated Greek Students at a meeting Thursday afternoon. He succeeds the out going president. Bill Carey. Gerry I'earson was elected vice president of the group; the present secretary, Mary Gill i ham, was reelected by a unani mous vote. An assistant secretary will be appointed later by the new president. this proposal gave AGS a chance to lead the way. Other delegates pointed out that making this shift fall term would havf- been interpreted as a strictly j political move; however, waiting until after the political campaign was over and being the victorius j party in the ASUO elections—no such criticism could be made at this time. "The dorms are a loosely organi zed group -constantly’ shifting,” one delegate stated, “while the greeks have a consistent policy and organization. Doing away with AGS would make the party com parable to the United Students Association.” Larry Dean, incoming AGS i president, issued the following statement after the meeting: "Under the presen torganization! of AGS, we have a party that -we ; feel -is doing the best job possible | for good student government. We j feel that a change would be deteri- \ mental not only to us, but to good ; student government as well.” That the AGS would have to adopt a new line of thinking if j the proposal was adopted was; brought out during the debate by j one delegate. She pointed out that1 the party would receive a lot of criticism if it became a coalition party in name only. Party officers for next year were also chosen at the meeting. Turnabout Day On Tap Monday Monday will be "Turnabout Day" on campus in connection with the Mortar Board Ball. Women will relax for a day in pedal pushers, jeans, and slacks and will ask the men out for coffee and Coke dates. This day will be keeping with the Mortar Board Ball tradition with the women paying the bills and generally taking the part of the male. Betty Wright, president of Mortar Board, senior women’s honorary which sponsors the an nual ball, said that the men are bound to accept any invitations they receive. Also running around campus will be five prominent campus celeb rities who will be even more prom inent that day, according to Miss Wright. She refused to give further explanation. Rushing Topic Of IFC Confab An eijflit-nian committee was named Thursday night by Dick McLaughlin. I n t c r f raternity Council ]>resident. to make rec ommendations fo a “small fall term rush week for sopho mores" and for regulation of freshmen rushing until winter term 1952. According to the Oregon Plan as approved by IFC last week, freshmen rushing would be deferred until the second week of winter term. Some IFC members said that they did not realize they had voted for winter rushing when they voted for the Oregon plan. They were decidedly not in favor of deferred rushing. McLaughlin said that all IF J members need to know why a de ferred rushing plan is necessary, because it will not work without the cooperation of IFC. It was brought out that the de ferred plan allowed the freshme l time to get adjusted to college life before they begin making an ad justment to fraternity life. Ray Hawk, director of men' affairs, also pointed out that the deferred rushing plan gives the fraternities a better chance to pick men that will make their grades and bo of some good to the frater nities. Ray Karnofski asserted. “I don't see how you are going to keep fa I rushing to a mild roar unless we have good interfraternity coopera tion.'’ Hawk brought up a problem of many fraternities in that they have board bills owed them by their members and cannot collect. Some house have brought up the possi bility of getting administration help in collecting such debts. Hawk said that at some univer sities the fraternities' bills were collected by the administration. He added that he did not know wheth er the administration here would assume the added work, but that he would go “all the way in trying to get such a policy if the frater nities wanted it.” Hawk urged the house presi dents to inform their members that the new draft ruling does not allow college men to be drafted before Aug. 20. This is to give the colleges time to compute compara tive grades of students. He said that those men who don't get drafted in that month between Aug. 20 and the tinrn school starts will be able to go on to school for another school year. A clarification of a standing IFC rule was given by McLaughlin. He said that no pledge can be initiated until the term following that which he pledged. Emerald Burlesque To Appear Monday Here’s an exclusive: Monday’s edition of the Emerald will go to pot. As usual, the 1'niversity chap ter of Sigma Delta Chi, men’s journalistic fraternity, will put out its annual burlesque edition of the Emerald—complete with the “Daily ’E’ ” and the “Ore gon Lemon.” This edition, it is hoped, will not bear any resemblance to tho journalistic endeavor of any reg ular edition of the Emerald.
