Entertainment co-c hairmen Refugee Plan To Miss Goal WASHINGTON (API — The head of President Eisenhower's refugee relief program expressed doubt Thursday that the program can reach its goal of 214,000 above-quota immigrants by Dec. 31, 1956. R. W. Scott McLeod, whose ad ministration of the plan has been under fire in Congress, told newsmen his chief problem is get ting assurances from American sponsors that the refugees will (1) be employed without putting an American out of work, (2) be housed without displacing any body, and (3) will not become public burdens. He said he favors changing the 1953 act to do away with the job and housing assurance require ments in cases of relatives in the United States. That would re mcive an administrative hind lance, he said. Making the goal by the dead line is possible, McLeod said at a news conference, if Americans provide the required assurances. But with the changes he sug gested, he raised questions about the situation on the other end of the pipeline. He said he doubts there are enough refugees who can meet the health requirements of the law and who are willing to leave an economically improving Eur ope to start a new life in the United States. Rob Roy and Darlene Leland re ported that their committee may plan the program around a Ham mond organ. The show will fea ture costumes and lighting ef fects with organ background i music. Freshmen talent ranging from dancers to comedians will ! perform during the intermission. Jo Eggleston, co-chairman of flying speeches, announced that ' speeches will be given in the freshmen dorms Monday eve ! n*ng. Eugene freshmen will be con tacted next week by a '‘sno-baH’’ phoning committee. Diane Raoul Duval, sub-committee chairman, said. Off campus freshmen bene fit from the dormitory posters ! or meetings, and sometimes do 1 not get the information. "An all out campaign to have 100 per cent attendance at the \ dance is the main goal of the publicity committee," stated Him ; Hilands, committee co-chairman, i “Since the dance is free and good entertainment is planned, , we shouldn't have much trouble getting all the frosh to come. YM to Visit Another in a series of YWCA ! sponsored visits to local churches | will be held Sunday for all in | terested students.

Transportation will be pro vided by the YMCA. Church a "handsome Junior Weekend program.” Junior weekend, an annual spring event, will of necessity be rearranged to accommodate the fete which planners envision as being the central part of the weekend In future years. Of two alternate plans, the Senate approved one which would schedule the Canoe Fete for Friday night of the Weekend with the Junior Prom to be held on Thursday evening and the all campus sing on Saturday night. This arrangement may neces sitate scheduling a day of no classes because of the many ac tivities of the weekend. The Sen ate recommended Friday of the weekend as a no-class day to enable full student participation in the various programs. The Senate approved a canoe fete committee headed by Bob Schooling and Jim Light to make arrangements for the fete, now scheduled for May 13. For this year only, both a float parade and a canoe fete will be held. In the future years the float parade will disappear as a Junior Week end tradition. The Senate committee empha sized that the available water space is sufficient for the page ant although it acknowledged that it will have to be of limited size, (about ten floats), for at least this year. In addition to the problem of rescheduling Junior Weekend to fit in the fete, the commitee also will have considerable difficulty in putting on an activity that has long been absent on the campus. Barges will have to be built, start ing problems arranged, and fi nancial resources evaluated. Another problem will be to limit the participating houses in the water show. Also, certain minor features of Junior Week end, such as the profusive award giving and the Sunlight Sere nade, may have to go. The fete steering commitee expressed confidence that all the difficulties will be ironed out and that Oregon will finally reestab lish, in Schoolings words, “the finest tradition that Oregon ever had. ’ Senate Meeting Lengthy, Varied The Senate met Thursday night in a session that if not distinc tive in the variety of actions taken, was at least noteworthy for its length. For four hours and ten min utes the Senate discussed and acted upon numerous proposals, ranging from the selection of a new Senate member through a re-establishment of an Oregon tradition to recommending an honor for an outstanding Oregon athlete. Anne Ritchey, junior in jour nalism, was selected to fill the senate vacancy created by the non-eligibility of Gary West. Miss Ritchey was chosen from an assembly of eight petitioners whose distinctive characteristics were high grade points, in a very long and tedious selection process that consumed one hour of the senate meeting. Other petitioners for the sen ator-at-large position were Kar en Kraft, sophomore in business; Fritz Fraunfelder, sophomore in pre-med; Carl Groth, sophomore in liberal arts; Shirley McLean, sophomore in liberal arts; Dick Beckman, junior in pre-med; (Continued on fugc eight)
