Raiding Stupid; Is Local View On Foraging
(Continued from page one)
into the papers while more worth
while campus activities were par
tially or wholly ignored.
. . More Constructive Things . .
Miss Webb added that she’d
"hate to see it start here,” and,
from all indications, didn’t think
it would happen at Oregon.
“I think they (the men) could
find more constructive things to
do,” she concluded.
Lyle M. Nelson, the University’s
director of public services, said
that the panty raiding was “old
stuff by now” with “nothing new or
original in it."
Promotion Through Publicity
He agreed with Miss Webb, say
ing:
“It seems that some attempts
are being made to promote that
kind of thing by the amount of
puDiicity given it.
Ray Hawk, director of men's af
fairs, remarked that he "didn’t
think anyone on the west coast was
that juvenile.”
“From what I've heard, most of
our men seem to think it' is pretty
small-time stuff . . . and down
right silly,” he observed.
Ben Schmidt, president of the
Interdorm council, thought that
the raiding was “rather stupid and
rather expensive on the girls’ part
if they never got their ‘equipment’
back.”
"I know of no independents plan
ning one,” he said, “but it would- :
n't surprise me a bit if we had
one.” It seemed to him that, on
other campuses, the foraging had
been carried out in a spirit of "good
fun.”
Doesn't Want a Kepeat
Barbara Swanson, president of
Carson hall, said “it could hap
pen,” pointed to two occasions, the
pay telephone demonstration and
the junior weekend festivities, in
which men had gotten above the
first floor of Carson hall. But she
wasn’t very happy with the
thought that such a thing might
happen again.
“Everybody has to have some
fun, but this is definitely carrying
it too far,” she noted. “We’re here
for an education and there's too
much playing around already."
“Sometimes OSC and Oregon
have a tendency to go too far,"
she commented.
Little Chance
Dick Morse, vice-president of the :
Interfraternity council, thought
there was little chance of the OSC
feat re-occurring here.
“I don’t think it would happen
here unless as the result of a Fri
day or Saturday night beer bust,"
he said, adding that “most houses
are well-disciplined enough to com
bat it.”
Sarah Turnbull, president of the
Associated Women Students, “hop
ed it wouldn’t happen on the Ore
gon campus." Most students here,
she remarked, would realize that
such a stunt was “a kid's trick.”
The Emerald was unsuccessful in
its attempt to contact several other
student leaders and administrative
officials Tuesday night, including
Mrs. Golda P. Wickham, dean of
women.

so strongly controlled by the cen
tral government is nearly impos
sible," Inkeles stated.
He criticized the U.S. press and
U.S. officials—for the wave of fren
zy and hysteria created by "irre
sponsible reports” in the press con
cerning Russian military activity.
"The stories would contradict
each other from one day to the
next," he said, adding that there
was more of a war scare here in
America than in Western Europe.

engagement might keep them
away, did not attend.
In transmitting his challenge,
Cousins writes, according to the
Eugene Register-Guard:
“In effect, my letter tells Dead
wood Dave to put up or shut up . . .
(He) has been hitting below the
belt and it's time someone rapped
him over the knuckles."
OSC Men Fail

tacks on women's dormitories and
sororities.
Over 1000 men from New York's
Columbia university raided neigh
boring Barnard college last week
in an action which prompted Bar
nard's dean, Millicent C. McIntosh
to blame her girls for egging the
men on, AP reported earlier.
Across the Nation
One policeman was hurt in the
fiay and one student cited for dis
orderly conduct, it said, and simi
lar foraging parties — some of
which have resulted in fistfights,
overturned cars, bruises, citations
and jail sentences have been re
corded at Harvard and the univer
sities of Indiana, Florida, Nebras
ka, Iowa, Purdue, Denver and Ot
terbein (in Ohio).
