    Fall Completion Date
Set For Wesley House
Methodist students at the Uni
versity of Oregon will have a per
manent modern home of their own
when they move into their $85,000
Wesley Foundation house next
fall, Charles Howard, chairman of
the Wesley Foundation corpora
tion, revealed recently.
The new building will be the
first religious center done in mod
ern architecture on the campus.
Bids for construction will be called
for in December, and work will
begin in March of next year. The
building will be complete by next
September, Howard said. The
present building may be removed
to a new site if it is not demolish
ed.
The floor level of the building
will include a chapel, offices for
the director and a social hall. The
basement will have accomodations
for student officers and a recrea
tion center Howard said.
Howard, a professor of law, has
been chairman of the Oregon
Campus Church Relations com
mittee of the First Methodist
church since the committee was
inaugurated in 1928.
“Methodist students on the
campus had been using several
buildings on the campus as their
religious center since the Wesley
Foundation was founded on the
campus in the early twenties,”
Howard said.
During the first ten years, they
had to meet in the church parlor
downtown, he said. Their first
building on the campus was rent
ed to them by the owners of the
Johnson property at Agate st. The
building is now part of University;
house.
During the war, Wesley Foun
dation was housed at 1258 Kincaid ,
st., where the Swedish Smorgas
bord now stands. After the war,
it was moved to the Hall pro
perty at the corner of Onyx and

Survey Indicates
Married Students
Number Growing
Married students may outnum
ber single students on the campus
in a few years. They could, if the
present trend .keeps up.
“When I was an undergraduate
here, I was probably jhe only mar
ried student on the campus,” re
called Mrs. Golda P. Wickham,
class of 1930 and now associate
director of student affairs.
Actually there were many more
married students then, but they
were about 4 per cent of the total.
Today, married students make up
21 per cent of the students.
According to the records of
Clifford L. Constance, registrar, in
1936, 114 married students were
enrolled, comprising 4.2 per cent
of the student body. In 1940, 6 per
cent of the students were married.
Between 1945 and 1946 a big
change occured. Constance pointed
out that in 1945 the veterans were
here but unmarried, but in 1946
many veterans got married. The
jump was from 11.1 per cent in
1945 to 18 per cent in 1946, when
some 1028 married students were
on the campus.
In the last three years the num
ber of married students on campus
has increased, although in 1951 !
there were more than 660, and in
1952, 590.
This year there are more than
845 married students. Of these 715
are men who are not affiliated
with fraternities and 130 are wom
en.
