Article by f Student
To Appear in Diaest
The Reader's Digest will publish
in its November issue an article by
Kenneth Holmes, graduate assist
ant in journalism. The article, en
titled “Your Next 12 Hours,” wa3
originally printed in This Week
magazine, the Oregon Journal
supplement.
Holmes, who was pastor for the
, American Baptist convention in

Oregon to “brush up on my writ
ing," has been writing for many
years as a hobby.
The article consists of nine
■things to do each day to make
life a little better for the individ

( mula for a happier life."
Living in the Amazon flats with
'■ his wife and two sons, Holmes is
making a study of magazines
printed in Oregon up to 1875. He’s
found 20 of them so far and hopes
to complete his work and receive
his masters degree in June.
Every Sunday he delivers the
sermon at the Westfir commun
ity church, 40 miles southeast of

PLANNED EXPENSE
ASUO Budget Gets
150-Dollar Increase
me asuo budget, approved by
the senate at last Thursday’s
meeting, shows a total of $1990
in planned expenses for the com
ing year.
This represents an increase of
$150 over a normal budget. The
extra amount was allotted to the
Honor Code committee for the
printing of the booklet “The Ore
gon Way” which was distributed
to freshmen during the new stu
dent week. The amount had been
requested last year, but the books
closed before it could be obtained.
The biggest single item in the
1953-54 budget is under fixed ex
pense, the salaries of the ASUO
president and his secretary. The
ASUO president gets $600 per
year, the secretary $250, for a
total of $850.
Under set reserves totaling
$550, Dads day and Mother’s day
are budgeted for $75 each, the
Oregon Federation of College
Leaders conference expenses are
set at $50. The National Federa

Student Seats Moved,
Number Stays Same
Despite lack of seating facili
ties at Saturday’s game, there has
been no reduction in the number
of students’ seats at Hayward
field, according to the athletic
department. A change has been
made* however, in the student
seating arrangement.
Last year students were seated
In the mtadle of the east grand
stand in sections N. O. and P.
Reserved seats were on each side
of the student section.
The new student section has
been shifted about 30 feet to the
south to sections O. P, and Q.
This places the students between
the 50 yard and goal lines.
The reserved seat section has
been shifted to the north half of
the stands, sections L, M, and N.
332 Men Pledge
As Rushing Ends
Figures released Saturday by
the Inter-fraternity council show
that 332 men pledged fraternities
during rush week. Approximately
390 men went through rush week
this term compared with 170 last
winter term and 131 the year be
fore.
The final official list of pledges
will not be released until this aft
ernoon, but tentative figures show
that the largest pledge classes are
Sigma Nu with 34 men; Sigma
Phi Epsilon, 32; Alpha Tau Ome
ga and Sigma Chi, 30 each, and
Phi Delta Theta, 24.
The number of men pledged dur
ing the first fall term rush week
in four years is over twice the
number pledged in either of the
two previous winter term rush
weeks.
Theater Tickets
Remain on Sale

processed this weekend and the
new orders will be done during
the week. All season tickets will
be mailed out about the 10th of
the month, said Mrs. Gene Wiley,

According to the athletic office
the advantages of the present ar
rangement are that the reserved
seats are all in one section and
that the student rooting section
is stronger. It also provides bet
ter seats for the donors to the
grants-in-aid p r o g r a m, season
ticket purchasers and faculty tick
et holders.

Drama to Open
EUCMA Year
First presentation of the Eu
gene-University Civic Music as
sociation 1953-54 season will be*
Paul Gregory’s production ct
“John Brown's Body,” to be given
in McArthur court Mondav, Oct
19, at 8 p.m.
Starring in the performance will
be Tyrone Power, Anne Baxter,
Raymond Massey and the Walter
Schumann choral group. Director
was Charles Laughton, who also
worked with Gregory in his earlier
production of George Bernard
Shaw’s “Don Juan in Hell,” play
ed by the First Drama Quartette
in 1951.
“John Brown’s Body” ig an
adaptation for the stage of Steven
Vincent Ber.et's epic poem cf the
war between the states. It is de
signed, through the actor’s read
ing or “reciting” the lines, to
place emphasis on the poet rather
than the stars.
Each of the male stars reads
the lines of five principal char
acters, and Miss Baxter represents |
the "point of view” of seven fem
inine characters. The chorus, as
was originally done in ancient
3reek drama, takes the role of
forwarding the action cf the stciy
rnd that of fate, or destiny.
University students will be ad
mitted to this and following
EUCMA presentations on their
student body cards.
