Rick- ; Ptts, a freshman in pre-law, felt i it was up to the administratoin to ' weed the Communists out of the faculty and that it should be done 1 without loyalty oaths because the i "administration should know who they arc." Any Man Has a Right . , . Marc Delemme, special student I from France, felt the University , should not require the oath be- j cause he felt that “any man has a i right to belong to any political party he wants, so long as he does not interfere in the freedom of other people." A senior coed in English also disapproved of the | oath because “it is trying to con- ! trol thought, which is against the basic principals of the Constitu tion." Sue Fuller, freshman in sociol ogy, thought the oaths were a I good idea, but a junior in political science was very opposed to them, saying, “I don't think they are nec essary at Oregon nor, should they be necessary for a professor to i keep his Job." A junior in journalism agreed i with the political science major by saying that she thought the oath w'as a mere formality with no! sense behind it. "It sounds good in these days when anti-Commu- ; nist feeling run high, but actually ; f don t think it would wrork in practice." Nickel Coffee Back GREENVILLE, S.
