AWS Elections ■ ■ a (Continued from page 1) more cabinet; and Carol Chris tensen and Nancy Erland, secre tary-treasurer. All candidates will be intro duced at the election campaign assembly today at 4 p.m. in the Dad's Room of the SU. The following is a list of vari ous candidates and a brief state ment from each. AWS candidates for secretary j are: Margot Noall: “In addition to fulfilling the duties of secretary, I would like to clarify and make known the women's rules as well | as try to increase the personal contact between AWS legisla-1 ture and cabinet and the women students so that the opinions of these women can be carefully considered.” Sharon Lay: “As president of Alpha Lambda Delta (freshman women's honorary), I served on AWS legislature and know the problems and potentialities of AWS. As secretary of my senior class at South Eugene High School and as secretary of my pledge class. I know the duties of secretary and would like to handle them for AWS.” Kafka, Camus Topic of Lecture By BARBARA CHANTRY Emerald Women’s Editor “The incomprehensible remains < incomprehensible” in the works of Franz Kafka and Albert Cam-; us” said Heinz Politzer, pro fessor of German at the Univer sity of California at Berkeley, in h i s lecture yesterday entitled, “Kafka and Camus.” In comparing the two authors, Politzer drew from the works of the two authors, primarily The Trial, by Kafka and The Stranger by Camus. In these works he cit ed the common element of crime and punishment. But this crime and punishment is dealt with dif ferently. In The Trial, K., the principle character, is guilty be cause he is unable to recognize his own guilt, while in The Stran- j ger a crime is truly committed, j but set off by forces beyond the chief character’s control. Politzer opened his lecture with a discussion of Friedrich! Nietzehe and the problem which he faces, that God is dead. Polit zer noted that this search for j God is a 20th century search, one found in the writings of both Camus and Kafka. But whereas Kafka negates God conditionly, Camus re-establishes the human relationship in a universe without grace through human tenderness. The figure of the physician as a saviour, according to Politzer, has become a leading character in the post-Freudian era. The image of this figure contains hope and promise for mankind. The importance of the physician as a saviour can be seen in Camus’ The Plague, and Kafka’s, The Country Doctor. It is also a re occuring theme in the works of Thomas Mann, and Boris Paster- ' nak. Politzer noted that it was interesting that both Paster nak and Mann won Nobel Prizes for their works which dealt with this subject. Politzer was bom and raised ; in Vienna and came to the United States in 1949. He receiv ed his Ph.D. from Bryn Mawr and has taught at both Bryn Mawr and Middlebury College. He has published 14 articles on Franz Kafka and is considered to be a foremost authority in the U.S. PATRONIZE YOUR • ADVERTISERS • Sue Goodnight: “In addition to the set duties of treasurer. I hope to be able to aid the AWS cab inet by means of the contacts I have made through participating in activities on campus both in dormitories and sororities.” Sharon Raynor: “I feel that I have the time necessary to devote to this job in order to do it prop erly. One of my main objectives would be to make the women on campus more familiar with the functions of AWS and how money is spent by AWS.” Shirlene McMichael: I would like to see the WRA program strengthened through more pub licity, including more public re lations contact with the students, infoi-ming them of the complete WRA program. Incoming fresh men should receive a handbook during the summer concerning WRA activities. Marianne Foster: “WRA at the University is a growing and functioning organization. Parti cipation has improved in the last year, but it needs to be expand ed to all women's living organiza tions, both on and off campus. WRA offers the needed exercise and activity which is so lacking among University women.” Judy Drais: “I have worked on YWCA for three years and have served on -YWCA cabinet, and I have been membership chairman for the last year. I am well-acquainted with the YWCA problems, the most important of which I feel are membership and publicity. I will endeavor to work in these areas to serve the YWCA.” Gladys Kafoury: "The Y pro gram was set up to serve . . . not only all women on campus, but the world, through the Chris tian philosophy of love and un derstanding of others. I would make the student body more aware of the program, have a membership drive, and integrate all girls on campus through an active program.” I Oregon a Petitions Due March 6 Petition* for Oregana editor and business manager are being railed for.
