Quits Post... fConlinurd from paqc 1) the Emerald a statement confirm ing his opposition to Finkbein er’s continued occupation of the foreign student Senate post. Me called upon the opposition to Kinkbeiner, whom he identifi ed as Arnold Temu, Kurien Chacko, Maher Quaddumi, and Moto Inagaki, “to make public any statements that they have against Kinkbeiner regarding rec ial issues or any other issues.” “AS THINGS stand now, all these rumors are destroying his reputation, but are helping no specific cause,” lie added. Finkbeiner’s resignation clears up an issue which the ASUO Sen ate itself would apparently have been unable to resolve. ASUO vice-president Art Erickson told the Emerald Tuesday that the Senate 'has no right to act in this area” under the ASUO Constitu tion. ASUO PRESIDENT Neil Gold schmidt said Tuesday night he “wouldn’t want to make a state ment until I have a chance to talk to Finkbciner personally.” Goldschmidt said the regular Senate procedure would be fol lowed in naming Finkbeiner’s re placement. This involves a call for petitions and interviews with those interested by a Senate com mittee. Three finalists then ap pear before the Senate, which chooses the new office-holder. Sigma Chi Pledges Clean Up School The Sigma Chi fraternity made the Pearl Puck School an object of the fraternity's traditional “Help Week" last Saturday when iff members of the pledge class went to the school to clean and wax its interior. Work specifically done by the pledges was that of waxing floors, washing windows, cleaning and dusting the rooms and basement workshop and sweeping the walks around the school. Speaking for the group, Mike Brown who participated in the program said: “Not only did I have a good time and get a lot accomplished, but it gave me a more purposeful meaning to ini tiation " Charter Flight Correction The Emerald ran a story in Monday’s paper about the Oregon charter flight to Europe which contained incorrect information. The following information is correct. THE OREGON charter flight will leave New York for Amster dam on June 13 and return from Paris on September 8 The cost for the roundtrip Is $254 As was announced at the recent charter flight meeting, there is a possibility of a connecting flight from Portland to New York and New York to Portland, if there are enough people to fill this sec ond flight. The additional cost to those participating in the original flight will be $156, if the Portland-New York flight becomes possible The flight dates and cost re main the same for the New York and Paris departures PERSONS who are interested in th'* Portland High’ arc asked to contact the International Educa tion Center, 309 SlT at Ext 1838 between 3 and 5 p.m. Monday through Friday. Participants in the Oregon char ter dish' who ha«'c not made their tecond payment must do so this week. Studies Come Second to Snow Monday Night “The students seemed to foe hit with a kind of white madness!” said Miss Hilda Yec, head resi dent of Hamilton Hall, about Tuesday night’s snowfall. Mid terms and studying were ignored, as many students poured out of Hamilton and Walton Halls to engage in snowfighting, wash ing faces in snow, building minia ture snowmen, and just good snow fun. Miss Karmen Dammrose, head resident at Walton Hall, said there was no trouble with the students, just a general sense of enjoyment. However, Miss Yee said that a third lloor window was broken at Tingle Hall. The two girl occupants were both in but the curtains were closed, so neith er was hurt by the broken glass. According to the weather sta tion at Mahlon Sweet Airport, Eu gene has had approximately 1 inch of snow so far. Occasional snow is expected today, with a chance of freezing rain. High tem perature will be 32. The Univer sity Physical Plant employees have been busy cleaning off steps and walks, and had encountered no unusual difficulties (.or broken legs) as of Tuesday afternoon. Ratio Hike...

(Continued from Page 1) liquidating projects such as dor mitories and repay these debts with dormitory fees received. Over 33 million dollars has been borrowed and repaid in this man ner. State system estimates for con struction and renovation needed in the near future total 45 mil-\ lion dollars. THE LEGISLATURE defeated a plan similar to Montgomery's in 1961. “At that time neither ed ucators nor legislators anticipat ed the big enrollment increases which came in the fall of 1961.” he said. “The needs are more ap parent now.” “These bonds are extremely de sirable, interest rates are low and individuals holding them are not taxed,” he commented. Interest on dormitory construc tion bonds in 1958 went as low as 2.69 per cent. Interest on other revenue bonds has ranged from 3.145 to 3.784 per cent. “WE WILL ask the people if we can issue bonds with an inter est rate of about 3 per cent.” said Montgomery. “If it passes on the referendum, bonds could be sold by the end of March and money would be available imme diately.” university President Arthur a. Flemming has favorably com mented on the plan as a method of obtaining funds for state sys tem capital construction in a le gal and unobjectionable manner. Montgomery’s bill is now being put in final form and will next go before the Ways and Means com mittee, a joint House-Senate group. • Another plan, recently pro posed by Rep. Jon Mosser, (R Beaverton) and Sen. Alfred N. Corbett (D-Portland). would uti lize money to build classrooms which is already available under a program designed to pay for dormitories, student unions and smaller buildings. USE OF $16 OR $17 from each student’s tuition each term would be necessary to cover the repay ment of bonds. Some 48 million dollars in bonds is available for buildings under the present bond ing arrangement. Montgomery said this would j not conflict with his bill and | might be "kind of stretching a point too far.” The plan would mean an in crease in student tuition rates if j the state would not make the j greater money contribution.

(Continued from page 1) and Humphrey were long time personal friends of E. R. Lovell, president of Calumet & Hecla, which contracted in 1953 to sup ply some 146 million pounds of copper for the defense stockpile. BECAUSE A civilian copper shortage developed later and the contractor was shut down by a strike, Flemming said that both Weeks and Humphrey as well as Calumet & Hecla officials contact ed him numerous times urging a revision of the contract. Coburn, producing memoranda from files of both the copper firm and the government, contended that the contractor was given “special treatment” and “special concessions” after it was in de fault on stockpile deliveries. Flemming said this was true, but he insisted that his decision in July, 1955, to ignore past de faults and stretch out future de livery was proper as part of the effort to build up necessary sup plies of copper and other stra tegic materials. ...something a little less serious by ted mahar Advice to the Loveworn by Ted Goodheart In my never-ending efforts to help my fellow man, I have decided to help people solve their problems. This, as you will have to admit, is extremely nice of me. If you ever have any problems, just ask me what to do. Send them in care of the Emerald. And now to this week’s problems: Dear Ted Goodheart: My problem is that I am going with a married man. He has prom ised to divorce his wife, whom he hates, and marry me. He loves me more than life itself. He has told me so. My problem is that he has still not started divorce proceedings. He is so wonderful and kind that he does not want to hurt his wife. I know because he told me so. I realize that my problem is very unique, but I hope you can help me. I have been going with him for seven years. Esther Phester My Dear Miss Phester: You are right. Yours is a unique problem. I must admit that in all my years of counseling, I have not encountered such an unusual problem. My only suggestion is that you remain loyal to your lover and have faith in him. Faith is a wonderful thing. If you only have faith you will be rewarded. Stick by your man. He needs help in this time of emotional turmoil. It is a terrible thing to be driven by two noble, but conflicting motives. Dear Ted Goodheart: My husband s mother is constantly finding fault with the way I do things around the house. She lives with us in married students' hous ing and criticizes me for sloppy housework, even though I am an excellent housekeeper. In fact, I am constantly picking up after her. She also criticizes me for the way I am bringing up our daughter, even though she slips the child cigarettes when I am not looking. She also criticizes me for interrupting my husband’s study by talk ing, even though, through a congenital defect, I cannot raise my voice above a whisper. My husband takes neither side, but says we should work this out between the two of us. What should I do? Mrs. Simon Pure My Dear Mrs. Pure: The next time your mother-in-law starts picking on you, slug her with a flat-iron. It is the surest path to do mestic tranquility. Dear Ted Goodheart: My husband has been stepping out on me for seven years. It has been with the same idiot all seven years. He keeps saying she is a good kid and that he wants to let her down easy. What should I do? Mrs. Elsie Grunion My Dear Mrs. Grunion: Stick by your husband. Have faith in him. He is going through a period of emotional turmoil. It is a terrible thing to be driven by two noble, but conflicting motives. Dear Ted Goodheart: Where can I buy the best ice cream there is? Norman Vincent Sturdley My Dear Mr. Sturdley: I’m glad you asked me that question. It just so happens that the best ice cream you can buy is Dairy Queen. The Dairy Queen store is at 13th and Hilyard. Faith is a 1 wonderful thing.
