Mac Court 'Inquisition'
They warned us they were clamping down. And Saturday
night, Oregon students had to present more identification to
get into Mac court than to win passage into the most select
cocktail lounge or tavern in the state.
Students who neglected to bring proper identification—social
security card, birth certificate, press card or driver’s license—
were grilled as to certain aspects of student life at Oregon.
■[What’s the name of the paper? Where’s the cemetery located?
Simple questions that any university student should be
able to answer. Probably the “FBI” approach didn’t hurt
anyone, but it irritated a lot of innocent students who were
n’t prepared for such demands and took up a lot of time prop
erly belonging to the Lane County Sheriff posse.
We don’t like it.
First, we don’t like it on principle. So, the athletic cards are
non-transferrable and some students abuse the privilege of
using them by loaning them out to non-students. But does that
justify the negative approach of considering all students guilty
unless they can prove they are who their cards say they are.
Second, digging up all the memos establishing your person
ality takes a lot of time and holds up lines in an already over
crowded Mac court. And identification can be as easily bor
rowed as the original athletic card.
If the problem is as serious as the Saturday night approach
indicates, then let’s start eliminating it by doing a little plan
ning in advance.
How can you most easily identify any person? Finger
prints, but that takes a little more complicated procedure
than Mac court is equipped for. The next step is your pic
ture—your face belongs to you and nobody else and, thank
heavens, everyone’s is different.
If pictures were printed on athletic cards, your necessary
identification would be there, on the proper card which admits
you to the game. A quick .look couid usually establish if the
faces and picture coincide.
Let’s eliminate a little of this heavy-handed treatment of Ore
gon students, establish a definite policy of handling athletic
cards and stop this “inquisition.”
Poooor Beavers!
Hot dog! Hot dog! Hot Ducks! We showed ’em, we did, we
did. Lots of credit to “small” Max Anderson for outscoring
“big” Swede Halbrook and leading Oregon to a magnificent
>vin over the Mooo-men.
There aren’t many complaints on the sprit or the turnout at
Saturday night’s game at Mac court after Friday night’s fiasco
up at you know where. The rally girls shook their hips effec
tively, the men bellowed with their usual rumble and the girls
jvere wonderful in their normal pitch.
The only thing missing Saturday from the night before was
the flustered little duck and the men with the mops.
It was mighty good to see the Oregon rooters who found
themselves in the OSC section standing and singing “Old Ore
gon” with the best of them. Did you ever try to do that with 80
pairs of eyes glaring at you? The alums and friends of.Oregon
who were singing and cheering in the balconies also deserve a
big hand.
. One last thought on Saturday night’s game before we break
into a mighty cheer. We’ve got a man who can stop all move
ment like a camera, merely by holding a basketball on one hip.
Pose Mr. Holland.
Now let’s show Bazoo Botts a thing or two. ('R.M.')

Pto«*y Eugene, Oregon
Tom Hardy, who received his
masters of fine arts degree in
sculpture here in June, 1952, was
given an appraisal by Alfred
Frankenstein of the San Francis
co Chronicle in the latter's weekly
art page on Sunday, Jan. 17.
Along with his comment on Har
dy’s importance in sculpturing,
Frankenstein added that all of the
Oregon grad’s work is quite re
markable and each sculpture was
remarkable in a different way.
“Hardy produces astonishing
range of effect within the frame
work of a limited subject matter,”
Frankenstein continued.
Hardy, who is now a free-lance
sculptor in Eugene, is currently
exhibiting some of his animal
sculpture at the Robert M. Kasper
gallery in San Francisco.
The University of Oregon grad
uate uses the welding torch me
dium in his sculpture, cutting
through sheets of iron and rust
ing them in heat. The torch is the
latest tool to be added to the
sculptor’s methods of techniques,
but up to now it has been used for
only non-objective forms.
Hardy, according to the Chron
icle writer, uses the tool for nat
ural forms and forms of the high
est emotional impact.
Some of the sculptures employ
massive sheets and some are open
line. “But all of them somehow
manage to present the animal
character,” Frankenstein contin
ued, “no matter how far they
may depart from street descrip
tion. They all have a touch of dig
nified antiquity about them des
pite the modernity of their idiom."
