Senate Trends
The ASUO senate got off to its usual rather slow start
Tuesday night, with the interviewing of petitioners and se
lection of various officers taking up most of its time.
We did notice a few encouraging trendB in the student
legislative body, that could mean a good year for student
government at the University of Oregon. The senate mem
bers seemed better informed on issues before the group than
they have in past years. Almost all the members took an
active part in discussion as contrasted to some of the do
nothings who have held senate seats in the past two years
Business during the more than three hour meeting moved
at a fairly fast pace, considering the amount of routine in
terviewing and selections that had to be done. ASUO Presi
dent Bob Summers had taken the time to prepare a complete
and informative agenda. Each senate member was presented
with a copy of the constitution, but it was obvious some of
them had never seen the document before. We hope they
find time to read it before the next meeeting.
Although Summers’ own party—AGS—holds a majority
on the senate, the group demonstrated that it did not intend
to become a rubber stamp body, which w ill blindly approve
anything he sponsors. Nor do we feel Summers u ants it that
way. In only one instance was voting conducted on a strict
party line.
Attendance was better than average, with only two mem
bers missing the entire meeting. There was a marked ten
dency toward tardiness, two of the senators missing over
an hour of initial business. Student representatives have a
clear and definite responsibility to attend all senate meet
ings, and to get there on time.
A good year ahead for the senate? We certainly hope so
and are willing to put our trust in the group ii they continue
to show the drive and energy that occasionally burst out in
their first meeting.
Spirit on Trial
What’s happened to Oregon spirit? We’ve been asked this
question by alums, older students and faculty members. The
question of the University’s new students seems to be: Is
there any Oregon spirit?
Students don’t attend rallies,, they sit on their hands at
football games, they don’t talk up Oregon. Most of the blame,
of course, is placed on a losing team. You can't make students
support a losing team, at least not at Oregon.
Or can you? Will Oregon students cheer their squad in
defeat as well as victory? Tonight might be a good time to
find out.
An elaborate rally has been planned for 7 at the SP depot.
Oregon will be on trial. Why not give the team a great send
off for the crucial California game at Berkeley? Let’s show
them we’re still behind them, win or lose.

ROTC Inspected
By Army Chief

structor group and the cadets in
the ROTC program," stated W.
B. Carlock in his first visit to

ing their junior and senior years

limited so selectivity may be
exercised."
