Letters to the Editor (Contmurd from page 2) with a charity drive for the nuke of charity to have a sign show inn the University goal and how much progress has been made toward achieving that goal. Pub licity in the newspaper and a large public sign give this drive the complexion of being another intramural, a new sport —chari ty! Yes, prove you are the most charitable and you will win a prize, a trophy. Who paid for the trophy and wouldn’t this money have been better spent as a charitable contribution? (living to help unfortunates because we want to give and are able to give is being charitable, but giving to enhance our public image, to prove we are more charitable than someone else and to build campus-community public relations is sacrilege. If we aren't charitable, if we don’t act like mature young adults, if our image is tarmished let’s admit it and work to correct it, not build a facade of money to cover up weakness. Past week hazing violation hit the public and made a bad impression. Giv ing to cover up mistakes or erase ill feelings is not an ethi cal solution but rather a feeble effort to bribe others to think as we would like rather than as their own knowledge dictates. For the reasons enumerated, the Chi Phi Fraternity will not contribute to Campus Chest. We believe in charity and have con ducted our own fund raising drive, the proceeds from which have gone to the Eugene United Appeal To give to Campus Chest would be a compromise of our belief that charity is for the ake of charity and not for hypocritical reasons posed by the Campus Chest committee When the Campus Chest phil osophy returns to truly charita ble goals we will Im? glad to par ticipate Until then we are in earnest and sincerity. The Chi Phi Fraternity On Foreign Students Emerald Editor: The conflict in which ASUO Senator Finkbciner is involved, has much deeper sources than appeared in your article in Tues day's Emerald Mr, Temu. lead er of the revolt to recall Fink beiner. expresses very well the '-hortcomings of his own group, by saying that the present Sena tor is guilty of both “apathy and lack of concern for the non European sections” of our Uni versity foreign students. It is •his very apathy and lack of concern of the “non European sections,” which makes it very hard for a Senator to represent these groups. Most of our University for eign students do not seem to un der,stand the reason why they are h-re. Many of us fo:eign students are here on exchange j programs; many are financially supported by our native govern- i menu. Bv selecting us as am bassadors, our sponsors expect j us to know our duties while staying in the United States. Why then, are the “non Euro pean sections” the ones that do not want to be bothered with at IMPRESS YOUR FRIENDS* “I)o it yourself and save" EMERALD LAUNDROMAT 17th and Pearl Behind Safeway Open all night Plenty of parking •WEAR CLEAN CLOTHES least an effort to help take away many misunderstandings that continue to exist among our na (ions? Why do they betray their countries by showing no initia tive. but a less than minimum interest in other people? Why do they THINK that everybody outside their group is against them? Temu's great concern for an International House is false when he says that this will be a place where they can meet Americans. What a beautiful expression of languor, We all know that we don't need an In ternational House to meet Am ericans. Of course, an Interna tional House will enable some groups to stick together better. Why do we expect that Ameri cans should take an interest in us, if we too often fail to re spond9 Arc we too busy study ing? What a poor excuse! For eign students on this campus must be better than average, otherwise they would not be here. It is not hard to criticize your Senator. However, it can only be fruitful if criticism is expressed by those who have shown what it means to be a foreign student; those who could do the job bet ter.

In some departments the professor discusses his class regularly with his assistant, he added, and in the English depart ment a visiting committee of professors checks graduate stu dent work. “Some departments would like to increase supervision,” said Clark, “but it is extremely diffi cult in departments which al ready have too heavy a load.” WATTLES FEELS more scr ious consideration should be giv en to the use of closed-circuit television for teaching large classes. "It is not equal to the use of small groups,” he com mented, “but it might be we could use it effectively.” “We have to explore possibili ties for stretching personnel,” said Wattles, since a “crucial need” must be supplied. “Wre must always very carefully weigh the teaching abilities of those we bring in.” Clark also cited new teaching techniques now in use, such a:: the use of TV in classes, the ex perimental study aproach in bio logy, the use of laboratories for foreign language instruction, and having English composition classes meet two days a week with special student-teacher con ferences. A >ir/i hud oi instruc tion recently suggested by Robert Summers, associate professor of law, is the Socratic method where the teacher acts as a moderator part of the class and participates in class discussion during the re mainder of the period. Summers said this method would work in classes of up to about 15G and is now being used by the Honors College and var ious teachers on the campus. Its main area of use is now in the Law school. Material which would be norm ally presented in a lecture would be mimeographed beforehand and given to students who would use it for discussion. “You’re like ly to get more out of it if its written,” commented Summers. LECTURING is a “sacred cow,” he said and does not accomplish as much as the Socratic method. juniors Injured In Auto Accident Two University juniors were in jured when their car skidded off the road Wednesday night near Junction City. Carl Finwall, Oakland, Calif., and Mike Valley of San Leandro, Calif., were enroute to Eugene from Corvallis when the accident occurred.

The latter should continue their projects at a high rate and the former may find it necessary to make personal 50 i cent donations or take the need ed amount from their social | funds." He suggested such money-rais ing methods as auctions of un wanted and lost and founds, sur prise breakfasts, firesides or des serts, athletic contests, fines and odd jobs, and icicle collecting contests.
