The late arriving delegates and advisors arrived at the University just in time to hear the opening remarks of United Nations General Assembly President Frederick Boland in an 8 p.m. address at McArthur Court, convening the first plenary session of the MUN General Assembly. Still not on campus were delegations from the University of Utah, representing Norway, and Western Washington College, representing Costa Rica. Living spate for all delegates now on the campus has been found, according to housing ■ chairman Mary Alden. Kirst "formal” session of the conference was a press delegates : conference with Boland and Ore gon Senator Wayne Morse, held in Allen Hall from 4 to 5:30 p.m. Receptions were held in the Stu dent Union prior to the press conference for ail delegates. BOTH Boland and Morse an swered delegates’ questions at the conference ranging from the Laos situation to political prob lems in Ireland, Boland's home. In his address at the first plen ary session Boland took a "birds eye view of the situation con fronting the world today ... in the belief that, if the problems and the dangers at present beset ting mankind are to be success 1 fully surmounted, they must be fared frankly and in a spirit of the most clearheaded realism.'’ On the effectiveness of the Un ited Nations he said, “It can dis ' cuss, it can make recommenda tions to governments; but it can not reach decisions binding on I governments, and therefore . . . : the world community is still to day a society without any kind of effective government.” SENATOR MORSE, who left immediately after the session to : resume duties in Washington, | D.C., introduced Boland. "You are about to listen to one of the world’s great statesmen. He personifies this altruism: ’In public service there is no substi tute for brains.’ ” Morse said. Also on the platform were Ore gon Gov. Mark O. Hatfield, Chan ! ccllor of the State Board of High er Education John R. Richards, Acting University President Wil liam C. Jones and ASUO Presi dent Steve Schell. PAUL WARD. Secretary Gen | oral of the Model United Nations | opened tbp session. He is a gradu ate student in political science at the University. During the late morning and early afternoon hours student delegates and faculty advisors converged on the Student Union (Continued on /'iujc $) New Committee to Get Bill SALEM (Special) — Monroe Sweet land's bill to appropriate ¥150,000 to be matched $1 for $9 made available under the Na tional Defense Act passed the state Senate Education commit tee Tuesday. The bill now goes to the Ways and Means com mittee. The problem now is finding funds which can be allocated. Chancellor John R. Richards, •it the request of the Ways and Means subcommittee on educa tion. has presented three alterna tive proposals for increasing the fee3 of out-of-state students. Clarence Barton, chaiiman of the Ways and Means committee, said Tuesday that he will rec ommend that out-of-state fees be increased by $15 per term. THIS MONEY-$236,000 per biennium, according to State Board figures — could then be used for more and larger schol arships and as NDEA matching funds, Barton said. Wednesday Chancellor Rich i ards explained the financial man euvering involved. ALLOCATION of funds for Sweetland's bill and increased scholarships could be made di rectly out of the state’s general fund, he said. Then the Ways and Means com mittee would probably cut the State System of Higher Educa tion budget by a corresponding amount. This would then force the State System to adopt the higher out-of-state fee schedule to balance the budget. Morse: TVS. Senator Wayne Morse Wednesday made a strong plea that the Oregon legislature take action to provide $150,000 in matching funds required under 'he National Detense Education Act. MOUSE said he made his plea "so that deserving young men and women in Oregon colleges during the next two years will not be denied the loans necessary if they are to obtain a college education.’’ State Senator Monroe Sweet land has introduced the bill in (Continued on Page 8) MUN Schedule 9:00-12.30 Committees Coun cils, Commissions Security Council 2:00- 5:30 ECOSOS First Committee Second Committee Third Committee Fourtii Committee Special P o I i t i cal Committee.

Mademoiselle Kaye Wiley, a 5'4" blonde sophomore from Oc cidental College representing France, was the star of an eye opening interlude at the MUN session in McArthur Court. The 19-year-old Gallic stand ard-bearer ascended the box at the floor microphone. F. Scott Nobles, president of the general assembly, won the plaudits of the assemblage as ho directed Made moiselle to walk the long aisle to the rostrum mike. As Mmc. Wiley exhibited u lov ely walk, necks strained for a better look at her form-fitting black suit and contrasting white pillbox hat and shoes. Nobles hastily explained his action as prompted by the desire for every one to hear the chic French dele gate. Not so noble of Nobles was his subsequent interruption of Made moiselle Wiley's address in her native tongue. Over protests of both France and Russia, she was replaced by a translator (male).
