'Wolf Ritual' Study
Newly Published
A monograph written by Alice
H. Ernst, associate professor em
eritus of English describing the
spiritual wolf ritual ceremonies of
Northwest Indian tribes, has just
been published by the University
Press.
Entitled “The Wolf Ritual of the
Northwest Coast,” material for the
monograph was gathered the sum
mer months from 1932 to 1940
from fieldwork along the North
west Coast.
Mrs. Ernst says the original
structure of the ritual of the
Wolves has now “weathered down
into an enigma for students of
primitive culture.”
“The present study, therefore,”
she says, “aims not so much to re
construct by theory a fugitive first
outline of the ritual, alluring as
such an attempt might be, as to re
i cord at first hand certain present
day customs in its observance
among those tribes still or recently
< practicing its rites, before these
quite vanish in the rapidly flowing
; wash of time.”
i Mrs. Ernst is the wife of R. H.
Ernst, professor emeritus of Ping- j
1 lish.
The first recorded suggestion ;
that the earth and other planets i
revolve around the sun is attribut
ed generally to Aristarchus, gn as
tronomer who' lived on the Creejc

Berreman Cautions
Against Coed Methods
The coeds’ technique of holding
men’s Interest will probably lead |
to a divorce court if the girls con
tinue to use the same methods
after they are married, according
to Joel V. Berreman, sociology de
partment head.
Berreman stressed that point at
Tuesday night’s Marriage and
Family series lecture in the Stu
dent Union. His talk, "Courtship
as Preparation for Marriage," was
the second in a series of four lec
tures sponsored by the YM and
YWCA.
Husband Won't Tolerate
Flirting, and attempts to make
a man jealous were cited as ex
amples of co-eds’ weapons, which
might work on campus, but which
a husband won’t tolerate.
Pointing out other errors in
courtship, Berreman said, “Too
often the basic motive in dating is
seeking those who have prestige
the BMOC's. Dating them be
comes a sort of competitive game,
an attempt to go out with the
’right people.’ ”
Sex and Idealization
Berreman explained that court
ship is hindered by this sort of
(luting, which is based on sex at
traction and idealization.
"This makes it difficult for the
person to perceive reality, or dis
miss the unimportant, which is j
necessary when contemplating
marriage,” he said.
The thrill type date was also
pointed out as a poor basis for j
marriage. Berreman explained that i
the sort of person who is a "scin- ]
tillating date,” is apt to be bad
marriage partner material.
Heads, Not Heart
Using your head, not your heart,
to simply find a person whom you
can get along with, is most im
portant, he said.
Tests have shown that traits
which insure the greatest degree
of happiness include:
In women Kindly toward
others; not easy to take offense;
cooperative; not seeing rivalry in !
social situations; altruistic, con- j
servative and conventional in poli- '
tics and morals, and methodical in j
their work.
Traits for HappnlesH
In men Emotionally stable; co- i
operative disposition; not feeling
superior; unselfish; showing ini
tiative; frugality; and being con
servative in religion.
Opposite traits, Berreninn said,
are found in divorced couples. Most
frequent complaints of this group
include:
Of wives Nagging; lacking af
fection; selfish; Interfering with
hobby; slovenly; complaining; con
ceited; insincere; and quick-temp
ered.
Of husbands The same.
There All the Time
Bcrreman pointed out that these
bad traits were not developed after
marriage, but were there all the
time. The people just didn’t take
the time and trouble to look for
them.
“They were too much in love
with love."
Berreman stressed the import
ance of analyzing the other per
son's personality, "seeking the
saiVie traits that you admire in
friends of your own sex."
Education Increases Chances

said. Only about one In six mar
rlages of college graduates will
end in divorce, compared to one
in three for the general popula
tion.
"Persons older then 20, with at
least a year's engagement, have
the best chance for a happy mar
riage,' he said adding tha tthero
is little hope for happiness for
those who elope without having
made a proper personality adjust
ment.

In Kitchen Now
OTTOWA, Ont. (U.P) A Yugo
slavian displaced person 1h living
a Cinderella story in reverse here
but hopes that it will have a happy
ending yet.
Libusa Cristianl, an outstanding
operatic singer in her notlve coun
trl, Is working as a domestic serv
ant for the privilege of becoming
a Canadian citizen. She has to look
forward to another seven months
of menial labor before abandoning
her pots and pans to resume an
interrupted singing career.
Miss Cristiani came here last
September. Under immigration
rules, displaced women must put
in at least one year as domestics
before taking up work of their
choosing.
The tall, shapely singer is con
sidered by Conductor H. Bram
well Bailey of the Ottawa Grand
Opera Company as prospective
Metropolitan Opera material.
"Miss Cristiani has a very, very
good soprano voice,” Bailey said.
".She needs little training; her need
is an opportunity to apply her tal
ent in opera. And, she must learn
English.”
Miss Cristiani, who won acclaim
in Trieste and Yugoslavia with her
full-bodied Voice, spoke no English
on her arrival In Canada.
Persona! Letters
Will be Needed
For Duck Preview
Lot's invito our senior high
school friends down to Duck Pre
view.
The above request, from Preview
General Chairman Jackie Wilkes,
is especially directed to freshman
men, she said.
Miss Wilkes asked that fresh
men contact high school seniors of
their acquaintance, either directly
on weekends or through personal
letters.
The letters could ask the seniors
to come to Oregon for Duck Pre
view weekend (Apr. 26-7) anil
mention some of the events which
will be featured, she explained.
Official correspondence from tho
Duck Preview weekend committee
is not allowed this year, so this
means of contacting the students
has been adopted. It is the sole
means of getting in touch with
them for the weekend, the commit
tee said.
Cooperation of all students is
hoped for, the committee stated,
but freshmen are especially urged
to contact prep friends, since they
are more familiar with them.
Oregon State college students
have been inviting high school sen
iors to that school's preview week
end by means of letters.
