One group thought that Communist China should be allowed to enter the United Na tions because they felt that once in the organization they could be "talked to" and this would lead to more understanding. l.’.N.

Reds Not Found In Universities. . (Continued from payc one) lercede with the committee han dling tlie bili, and that they, aided by cx-Governor Charles A. Kprague, now editor and publisher of the Oregon Statesman in Sa lem, succeeded In getting the bill tabled. “The passage of this act,” Byrne asserted, "would have been a ser ious step backward for higher edu cation in Oregon." Good People Needed in Government In discussing the government role before alumni, Byrne said we must have good people represent ing us in local, state and national bodies, since government is affect ing in many ways the lives of indi- J viduals. “I am deeply concerned right 1 now with the announcement of a i large number of our best state leg- j islators that they are not going to be candidates for re-election,” he i stated. Alumni Important in Politics He said he believes it is impor- j tant for alumni to participate in ' securing good candidates or in ac- j tually becoming candidates them selves. 4 nui uvL ar.ntiift Liitx c aiuiimi send to our legislature people who will vote higher appropriations for the University or the state system of higher education. Rather, I am emphasizing that a university should, expect of its graduates ac tive participation in government to the end that we may have good government at all levels.” Recruitment of Good Students Byrne said alumni should help to increase the now relatively small proportion of top intellects in high school to attend college. Regarding present alumni recruit ment of athletes, he said, ”1 still think that a good halfback, if he is also a good student, is a worthy object for the right kind of alumni encouragement. But I would like to see this role broadened into the recruitment of good students.” The chancellor said the encour agement didn't have to be financial help, but a "kindly discussion” with the students on the opportu nity before him, and, if financial help is needed, the alumnus could enable the student to use Univer sity facilities set up for aiding him. Ivory Tower Taboo Discussing institutions of higher education, Byrne said no institu tion can be gieat or successful “if it withdraws to an ivory tower to pontificate and philosophize." "Certainly,” he said, "(it) must be a leader in thought and blazing new trails, but it also must be alert to the needs and share in the dreams, the ambitions, the activi ties and the social and economic life of the people.” Byrne said Oregon higher educa tion institutions are reaching a maturity in their development which alumni could be proud of. He said he hoped the roles were not selfish ones, but responsibili ties owed to the University and the state. floh Op^U^UunitieA, For further information con cerning job opportunities, contact the graduate placement office, Kmerald hall.
