World Mourns
Soviet Leader
UNITED NATIONS, N.Y.-iAPi
Andrei Yanuarievltch Vishinsky,
the once obscure Russian lawyer
who became a foremost mouth
piece for the Soviet Union, died
Monday.
The Soviet deputy foreign min
ister. and Moscow's delegate to
the United Nations, would have
been 71 years old Dec. 10.
Kelco Van Kleffens of The
Netherlands, president of the
United Nations, announced the
Soviet diplomat died of a heart
attack.
In bad health for several years,
Vishinski remained in the thick
of diplomatic storms here to the
end.
UN Meetings Suspended
All United Nations meetings
were suspended for the day, and
thus debate in the UN political
committee on President Eisen
hower's ntoms-for-peace plan
was postponed.
A Soviet source said Vishin
sky collapsed and died early
Monday morning at Soviet dele
gation headquarters on Park
avenue.
He surrendered the top post
of the foreign ministry to V. M.
Molotov in March 1953 in the
Soviet government realignment
which followed the death of
Stalin, and he was appointed
first deputy foreign minister.
Last December, on his 70th
birthday, Vishinsky's services to
Kip Taylor Resigns
Kip Taylor, head football
roafh at Oregon State college,
and his three assistants sub
mitted their resignations to
the athletic board at OSC Mon
day night. The resignations
were accepted and will go to
the State Board of Higher Edu
cation, according to an an
nouncement by A. L. Strand,
president of OSC.
When contacted by the Em
erald this morning, Fred
Shldeler, director of informa
tion at OSC, said the resigna
tions were to be effective July
1, 1955.

day’s Emerald.)
the Soviet state were recognized
when he was awarded the Or
der of Lenin, his nation’s highest
award.
Ill-health ( atised Absences
Vishinsky, better known to the
world outside the Iron Curtain
than almost any other Soviet
figure, *>egan to suffer declining
health in 1949. His health fre
quently caused his absence from
important councils.
In 1950 he had to go to a
ANDKE1 VISH1NSKY
Prosecutor to Foreign Minister
Czechoslovak spa to recuperate,
but he was back on the job
when the UN was in session. He
arrived in New York only last
September at the head of his.
delegation to the UN assembly.
Vishinsky’s colorful and often
violent oratory dominated many
postwar international confer
ences but he was as renowned
for his wit as for his invective.
US Ambassador Henry Cabot
Lodge Jr. said he saw Vishinsky
as late as 11:15 p.m. EST Sun
day night at a dinner given by
Henri Hoppenot, France’s per
manent representative to the
UN, for French Premier Pierre
Mendes-France.
Lodge said Vishinsky was in'
"fine good humor, laughing and
talkative as always.”

Oregon students evidently took
the first victory of a Wrbfoot
football team over arch-rival
Oregon State. college in five
years in their stride Monday.
Nearly 44 hours after the vic
tory A few freshmen strolled
down Thirteenth street. A few
stopped to look at the lonely
janitor who was leaning on his
broom on the steps of Johnson
hall.
Freshmen Mill
A group of Campbell club men
and assorted fresfrmen milled
quietly in front of the adminis
tration building. A carload of
Sigma Chi’s went honking by.
Yell Leaders Tom Gaines, Larry
Kromling and Mai Scott arrived
| and started singing “Rally,
Rally.’’
This was a big rally. That is
what they announced at lunch.
They said there would be a big
rally at 12:30 in front of John
son and that there wouldn’t be
any afternoon classes. And
everyone could go out to Perkins
point and quell their spirits.
Sailors Abandon
Leaky Rowboat
Tired and disheartened, five
University students gave up a
plan to sail down the Willam
ette river to Corvallis Friday
night.
The five—Dan Lees, freshman
in business; Gary Jackson, fresh
man in liberal arts; Bob Kirk
wood. freshman in liberal arts;
Jeff Davis, junior in geology, and
Vance Taylor, graduate in busi
ness, left Eugene Friday after
noon in a small rowboat in hopes
of making it to Corvallis in time
for the Oregom-OSC football
game.
The boat, whiCh had several
bad leaks, stood the grind for
awhile, but before the halfway
point had been reached it was
leaking so badly that Lees and
Taylor decided to abandon ship.
The other three' sailed for ap
proximately another mile and
then also gave up the cruise, as
the leaks became worse.
In all. the boat traveled about
15 miles down the Willamette
before the men decided to call
the whole thing a lost cause.
Southern Uprising
Movies Scheduled
Movies of the Oregon-OSC
football game will be shown to
night in the Student Union ball
room immediately after the an
nual football awards banquet.
Line Coach Vern Sterling will
narrate the movie.
The latter part of the ban
quet, during which awards are
made, will be open to the public.
John R. Richard, vice-chancel
lor of the state system of higher
education, strolled down the
steps unrecognized and elbowed
hi» way through the growing
throng, which was chanting “we
want Wilson.”
Wilson didn't appear.
Halfback Walt Gaffney went
in after the University president.
He came back out, escorted by
the rally squad, leading Rock,
mascot of Kappa Sigma.
Football Flayer Ready
Out in front the crowd was
growing restless. A football
player stood by ready to cele
brate in his Hawaiian shirt, with
a striped towel around his neck
and a camera over his shoulder.
A man in an Oregon jacket with
an OSC button prominently dis
played on his hat went unnotic
ed.
Three uninspired renditions of
the "Fight Song” didn’t help.
More students gathered, waiting
for something to happen. By now
even the steps of Fenton hall
were filled with onlookers, bask
ing in the sun.
Dug Fight Starts Action
"We want Wilson,” they shout
ed.
"No, classes today!” they
pleadeil.
ad-n, we don t want to go to
school,” they yelled.
“Idaho did it, why can’t we,”
they questioned^
And still nothing happened.
It took a dog fight between
Rock and Dandy, mascot of Al
pha Tan Omega, to get action
started and the reluctant cutters
on their way to Perkins point.
But not very many of them did
even that—for awhile. About 100
milled around Thirteenth wait
ing for rides out to the picnic
grounds. And the rest of the ap
proximately 500 spectators quiet
ly wound their ways back to
Commonwealth and Friendly.
Parade Goes in Classes
They were interrupted less
than half an hour later by a re
newed parade of students going
through classrooms and yelling
“no class today.” Results were
30 to 50 more carloads of stu
dents headed for Perkins. The
rest took advantage of a coffee
break or unexpected study time.
An earlier demonstration at
tempt failed. At about 9 a.m.
Gaffney and Center Art Weber
led a throng of students through
campus buildings and succeeded
in breaking up some classes.
Students Passive
At least one instructor, Rob
ert Dubin, head of the sociology
department, let his class go. In
other classes students waved blue
books and. moved impatiently.
Demonstrators met with a
marked student apathy, com
pared with the spontaneous de
layed outburst following the up
set Southern California victory
a year ago. But then. Saturday’s
victory was to be expected.
The weather Monday was clear
and crisp. Great football weath
er, but not much for rallying.
