If the situation is not corrected, the court decided that the fine will be tripled. The court received a letter of! protest from V. L. Hisly, head of j the Biology department, who con- i fended that tickets were being is- ! sued when the person who left his car in the lot was in the line of i duty. A reply is being prepared, stat-1 ing that any person who feels he ! received a ticket unjustifiably has I ■ the right to appear before the i court and appeal his case. Mike Adams, chairman of the •court, reminded students that all ! cars on the campus must have a \ parking sticker in the lower right hand corner of the front wind shield. The sticker is not for park ing privileges alone, but for oper- | ating the vehicle anywhere on ; campus. The possibility of scheduling : court sessions for winter was dis cussed. but action was deferred un til the next meeting, which is plan- j tied for Dec. 5. To Far East IMl. PALL S.

These have been the major roles of Sen. Paul H. Douglas (D-Ill. i. who will discuss "Problems Pac ing Our Nation Today" in Tues day's assembly at 1 p.m. in the Student Union ballroom. The Washington correspondents Yeomen Once Powerhouse In Campus Athletic Circles Saturday was more than just an ithcr Homecoming for Yeomen, nembers of the campus orgamza ion for Eugene city male students. Saturday was also the 21st anni 'arsary of the founding of Yeomen. The constitution of the group was ratified on Nov. 24. 1930, and Lhe stated purpose was the promo tion of student activities for inde pendent men. That first business meeting was followed by a talk by Dr. Hero Sasonn, who discussed "The Teu tonic Versus the Romantic Euro pean Cultures." Athletic Towers Although Yeomen were highly feared athletic powers during their early years, athletic deemphasis began in May of 1935 when one Esteb, a retiring president (no pun intended), suggested that the Yco nen concentrate upon social activi ties and no longer stress upon ath letics or politics. Whether intended or not, his suggestions were ultimately car ried out. That year the Yeomen were second in the final intramural total-points scoring for the second year in a row. They never again finished among the top three. The Yeomen were third in the final scoring in 1931, first in 1932. again in 1933, second in 1934 and second again in 1935. However, by 1938, they had dropped to 10th place, and last year they were 35th. Gone are the days when Yeoman would capture five of eight intramural team ! championships in one year (1931- j 32 i. In October of 1935, the Yeomen ' decided to publish a bi-monthly j newspaper devoted to independent j news, but there is no evidence that it was ever printed. In December of the same year. Yeomen received a c ip "for inspir ing interest in cross-country run ning." OSC Challenged The Yeomen won the intramural tourh football title in 1936 and challenged the OSC winners to a game, but the challenge was not accepted. Yeomen formed a men’s glee club in November, 1936. By 1937 the name "Yeomen" was popularly believed to be a con traction of “Ye Oregon Men," but it is now believed that this was not. the intention of the founders 21 years ago. Top t;r.\ Yeomen had the top men's GFA in 1943 with a 2.81. A membership, drive in 1945 1 featured the announcement that "Good fellowship is offered to any independent who is feeling the pangs of homesickness or general fed-up feeling.” The 1945-46 calendar of the group included dances, buffet din- ; nets, skating parties, hayrides and ! a ski.trip. They held an all-campus dance in February, 1916. named Douglas the outstanding senator in congress in a poll con ducted by Time, weekly news magazine, this year. The 59-year old freshman member of the sen ate has been prominently mention ed as a possible Democratic nom inee in the 1952 presidential elec tion. Busy Schedule Douglas, who will speak in Port land prior to his coming to the University, will follow this sched ule, according to plans: Press conference at 11 a.m. Luncheon at noon with the as sembly committee and faculty members of the economics depart ment. Assembly at 1 p.m. Informal coffee hour at 4 p.m. in the Student Union. All students and faculty have been invited by the Student Union board and Mor tar board, sponsors. Douglas, who graduated from Bowdoin college in Maine in 1913 and studied at Harvard and Co lumbia receiving his Ph.D. degree at Columbia taught at Chicago from 1920 until he took office in the senate in 1919. He has been professor of economics at that school since 1925. Served in Marines The freshman senator served in the United States marines from 1942 to 1946, rising from the rank of private (at the age of 50) to lieutenant colonel. Requesting overseas duty, he was sent to the South Pacific, where he fought in the campaigns of Pelelieu and Okinawa. He was wounded twice, the last time severely, and was awarded the Bronze Star for "heroism in ac tion", the Purple Heart and the Theatre Ribbon with two battle stars. He resumed his position on the Chicago faculty in 1946. In 1947 he was elected presi dent of the American Economics association, the top position in the national economic field, and in 1948 he was elected to the senate, having been defeated for the same position when he ran in 1942. Eventful Career The activities of Douglas in the fields of economics and govern ment have included: Chairman of the Board of Arbi tration for Newspaper Publishing Industry from 1925 to 1942, the longest term in this work on rec ord. Secretary of the New York Com mittee to Stabilize Employment. (Please turn to page three) Secretary Named To Phone Group; Others in Offing Dick Kading, now leading Ore gon's stand on the pay phone con troversy, named Ann Dielschnei der, a sophomore in architecture and allied arts, as secretary of the committee which will represent Oregon students at Tuesday's in formal meeting in Salem with Pub lic Utilities commission and Pa cific Telephone and Telegraph eo. officials. Kading said he will appoint dor mitory and co-op representatives to the group today. Kading was appointed to head the move by ASUO President Bill Carey. Carey plans to appoint a senate mem ber to the committee. The problem will be brought up in senate to night. The meeting was called by PUC?' in an attempt to iron out the prob lem without resorting to putlic hearing. Present at the discussion, slated* for 10 a.m. Tuesday in the PUCT hearing room of the public service building in Salem, will be PUC of ficials headed by Commissioner George Flagg PT & T represen tatives and students representing Oregon, Oregon State college, and Willamette university. J. O. Lindstrom. University busi ness manager, told Kading Wed nesday the basis for pay phones should be consistent—in all living organizations or none, in all state colleges or none and finally in all colleges in the ration or none. One problem complicating the issue, Kading said, is the differ ence between the situations at OSCf " and Oregon. The Oregon State business manager requested that the PT & T install new telephones in OSC dormitories: the company planned to install them in all houses. At Oregon, however, pay pnor.es were installed by the telephone company at its own volition, Kad j ing pointed out. State dormitories now have pay phones, as do all Oregon living or ganizations. Basis for the preven tion of installing pay telephones in OSC fraternal organizations was their claim that they are private, not semi-public: a PT & T ruling says pay phones may not be in stalled in private places unless re quested. Another factor mentioned by Lindstrom, Kading said, is that the University is saving neary $5000 ■ this year on the pay phones—mot having to pay wages for personnel I I’lcasc turn In pane three) ASUO Senate Faces Crammed Agenda First item of business for the ASUO senate meeting at 6:30 p.m. today :n the Student Union is a statement by the Honor Code com mittee.
