n Daily EMERALD Fifty-third year n\Publication UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, EUGENE, THURSDAY, AFRII, 21, l!).V> NI MlUJi 10-* Honor Code Gets Slim Majority Vote A Klim majority of students 2.0 per rant to 47.4 per cent of oters gave their okay to the Ore 011 honor code in WcdncHduy'B cferendum, leaving the next step indeeided until the code committee neats Tuc-Hday afternoon. However, it wax the consensus f niemberM of the committee, lHUO senate, administration, and ampus political candidates con acted by the Emerald that the iiajmity obtained was insufficient o JiiHtlfy adoption of the code at Irejjon. 't he committee has pre riously stated that a fairly sub Itantial majority would be neces sary before It would ask the sen ate to request the adoption by the faculty. Of the 2027 valid votes, 1060 voted "yes” and 961 said "no" to the statement: "I am in favor of the adoption of the honor eode at the University of Oregon.” The 2027 total valid vote is 51 per rent of the latest spring term registra tion figure, 3072 as of Tuesday. Approximately ten ballots were marked either both "yes" and "no" or expressed indifference in some way or another; these were thrown out. Ballots were not turned ill for some of the 10 am. closes in which most voting was conducted but voting at the Student Union booth, the other method, was fairly brisk during the 45 minutes the booth was open. Merv Hampton, chairman of the senate honor code committee, HaifJ his group will decide on what steps to recommend at its meeting Tues day, and will make its report to the senate next Thursday. "I'm very disappointed,” he said, "that more Oregon students didn't feel an honor code had merit enough to warrant a trial period.” Asked if he could express an opinion as to the likely fate of code, Hampton said the decision is up to the committee. Hampton, who is also ASUO vice-president, stated, "I do not believe, however, that the vote in dicates that students would not abide by and work for an honor code, A "no” vote did not mean that a student would fail to sup-1 port the honor code. Perhaps the negative expressions were an indi cation that many students feel we are not yet ready for an honor code." Here are the statmonts of other officials and political candidates contacted by the Emerald: K. (i. Khbighausen, faculty mem ber of the code commtitee and for-! mer chairman of the group "I do I not think that the percentage was I } sufficiently large so that the sen ate ought to petition the faculty for the code's adoption. I am not completely disappointed, however, | since we have only been working ! six months. I hope that next year's senate will approve the attempt to i continue the program next year. "It appears that a good many students are skeptical. But it seern*r that a good portion of the 48 per cent voting against would not cheat, but feel others would cheat under the honor code The majority is not decisive; it would be a mis take to start the code on the.basif* of such a slirn majority. But t don't think we ought to quit.” Don Collin, senator from the junior class, who has opposed the code, especially the committee's report "The only thing I have ever said was that the report wa» inadequate, that it didn't prove an honor code workable or applic able at Oregon. The 'no' votes coubV nd.

Townbee is not accepted by all his torians as one who will rank along with Edward Gibbon, Wright said, but he may be remembered along with siich men as Oswald Spongier. (Gibbon is remembered to a great degree for his “The Decline and Fail of the Roman Empire"; Spongier for "The Decline of the West.") Toynbee, Wright continued, is one of 20 or 30 men who "will stand out and have seen the meaning of history as a whole." He is, the pro fessor said, "a man of tremendous significance.” The eminent historian is per-1 haps best known for his six volume j "A Study of History,” though | others of his works have been pub-! lished both in book form and in magazines since 1920. The first three volume of "A Study of History," still not com pleted, were published in 1934, the second three in 1939 and an abridg ment tby D. C. Somervell) in 1947. A British subject, he has visited the United States several times. In 1946 at Bryn Mawr college, Mass., he gave a series of six lectures en titled “Encounters Between Civili zations." Toynbee has been Director of Studies in the Royal Institute of International Affairs since 1925 and is a research professor of in ternational history at the Univer sity of London. He served his government during1 both wars and was on the British delegation to the Paris peace con ference in both 1919 and 1946. From 1943 to 1946 he was direc tor of the research department cf the British foreign office. He was born April 14, 18S9 and attended Balliol College. Oxford. After a tour of Greece he returned* and was from 1912 to 1915 a tutor and fellow at Balliol.
