    Rally Board Hears
Studenf Opinions
Sirap)£C..X£lJs, fewer house pair
Tngs.-and a-regular locution for all
rallies these WETS' the -recommen
dations made-by the rally board at
a..special meeting' Wednesday.
In order to get the opinion of
student leaders, the athletic de
partment, and local alumni, the
board met with Tom VVrightson.
ASUO president; Hollis Ransom
and Bob Summers, candidates for
ASUO president; Donald DuShane.
director of student affairs; Bill
Berg, president of the Oregon
Duck club, and Bill Bowerman,
assistant athletic director.
Forced Fairings ‘No Good’
Members of the group felt that
house pairings forced students into
rallies, a condition which was not
healthy for student spirit. In or
der to help solve the problem of
participation at rallies, Bowerman
felt that all rallies should be held
in one location.
In other discussion, the group
decided that simple yells would be
better than ones which required a
great deal of action, time and
words. Yells would be distributed
to students early in the year, so
that all students would be familiar
with them by the time of the first
game.
Portable Bonfire
Another suggestion made at the
gathering was for -the students to
Reed Editor
Talks onRussia
Z. The two ideologies of American
ism and Communism can co-exist
peacefully today. Dave Barney,
Reed college editor, emphasized
in a talk Thursday on his travels
in Russia.
Barney was one of six Ameri
can, cdllege.editdrs selected to visit
Russia three months ago. The
group made a three-week, 5000
mile tour of the Soviet Union.
In his speech. Barney said the
Soviet people want peace as much
as Americans. He described the
Soviet people as “literally being
saturated with peace talks.”
Barney said a foreign exchange
student program between the Uni
ted States and Russia would be
very good for promoting peace;
but the U. S. McCarran Act makes
this type of exchange with Russia
nearly impossible. ‘
-There is an air of optimism pre
valent among'the Soviet people,
he said, and contributed this to
Malenkov’s pledge “to promote
greater abundance for the Soviet
people.” Campaigns to “crush all
obstacles in the way of progress,”
and "against the production of
shoddy and inferior.goods,” are a
result of this optimism.
The most surprising fact about
Russia, Barney stated, Was. the
extra - ordinary efficiency which
comnrnn ownership and coopera
tion of schools, factories and
farms allowed. He commented up
on the elaborate system of “re
wards” the 'Communists use, for
promoting incentive among the
people.”
The Russians take great pride
in their educational system, and
their claim pf 100 per cent literacy
is “fairly correct.” Barney said,
“A .college education is guaran
teed to all who can qualify scho
lastically. The Russian universities
grant scholarships to about 90 per
cent of their students.”
^Barney also showed films which
he took in Russia. The lecture was
sponsored by the University Press
club, International Relations club,
and Pi Sigma Alpha, political sci
ence -honorary.

learn the complete words to the
fight song. Berg commented that
the verse of the alma mater
sounded fine at games, but that
the students should also learn the
chorus to it. The board also discus
sed the possibility of singing the
Oregon pledge song at the end of
each game.
Other items which were consid
ered by the group included a port
able bonfire machine, special ral
lies for the Oregon State games,
continuation of the white shirt
section on the present basis and
the possibility of making each
freshman take a duck call whistle
to each game.

ITS ALL A MATTER OF TASTE
^iSSt'SfUicVaSt^'
Rarfcara Bennett
V/hen you come right down to it, you
smoke for one simple reason... enjoy
ment. And smoking enjoyment is all a
matter of taste. Yes, taste is what counts
in a cigarette. And Luckies taste better.
Two facts explain why Luckies taste
better. First, L.S./M.F.T.—Lucky Strike
means fine tobacco... light, mild, good
tasting tobacco. Second, Luckies are ac
tually made better to taste better...
always round, firm, fully packed to draw
freely and smoke evenly.
So, for the enjoyment you get from
better taste, and only from better taste,
Be Happy—Go Lucky. Get a pack or a
carton of better-tasting Luckies today.
