Student Report Slams
Oregon Civil Defense
A group of students at Willam
ette University have released a
critical 86-page report concerning
the reactions of the communities
in Oregon to the Columbus Day
storm last October. The report
was published under the auspices
of the sociology department at
Willamette University.
THE REPORT was critical of
the role the Civil Defense opera
tions played in the storm, but
noted that the community at large
was ill-prepared.
“The state and local organiza
tions of Civil Defense did not per
form any outstanding roles dur
ing the crisis,” the report said.
The role of communications plan
ning was heavily criticized.
The report stressed the fact
that much confusion existed as to
the exact role of the Civil De
fense units. It continued to say
that the “chief problem with re
gard to civil defense is that this
organization was designed ch'efly
as a military arm, to be used in
the case of war.”
“IN PLANNING for this major
function, the Civil Defense organ
ization cannot be said to have suc
cessfully induced the people to
take its advice seriously or to
make preparations which would
have been effective,” the report
stated.
The Civil Defense played a min
or role, overall, according to the
report, stating that its chief use
fulness was "in being a whipping
boy on which to blame all the
lack of planning, preparation, and
co-ordination that the entire com
munity exhibited.”

LIFE WITH SLOGS
I doubt that many people on this campus realize what it is like
to live with Phil 'Slogs” Cogswell, the now dethroned editorial
editor of the Oregon Daily Emerald. I have strong doubts.
Well, let me tell you about it.
Slogs is characterized first and foremost by an overpowering
urge to re-write all the great poems ever written. For example, the
other day he composed the following:
I think that I shall never die;
To live forever I will try.
No grimmer thought can fill my head
Than that I one day will be dead.
‘‘This sums up my idea of life quite well,” said Slogs. “Although
I think you should attribute it to Robert Louis Stevenson.”
Another poem Slogs has revised is a sentimental old thing called
An Arab's Farewell to His Horse. It’s all about how sad the Arab
is, and how much he'll miss the horse and riding around the desert
and all. Slogs’ version of the several-page poem, in toto, is as fol
lows: “Good-bye, horse.”
ne aiso revises oia quoiauons. ne is iona oi saying irom time to
time, “If it’s not worth doing at all, it’s not worth doing well.” Oc
casionally, he quotes historical-sounding statements in totally dif
ferent contexts from those in which the statements were originally
made. For example, when I returned from my first National Guard,
I saw that Slogs and my other room mate Dave Sands (known simply
as The Ugly Canadian) had filled the walls with slogans.
“Any man is expendable.” was the first sign I noticed. Others in
cluded “C’mon you s.o.b.’s, do you want to live forever,” “We
march on the Little Big Horn today,” “Don’t give up the ship,” and
“All you have to give is your name, rank, and serial number.”
The piece de resistance, however, was the sign on the bathroom
door, which said, “Any spot is tenable if brave men make it so.”
Life with Slogs is also filled with trivia, as it were. For example,
when the Buel-Cogswell Mahar-Moran quadruvirate stepped out of
the Emerald office for the last time last night, only Slogs went to
the trouble to itemize what he had found in his desk as he was
cleaning it out.
The typed list he made included the following: four copies of
the ASUO constitution, an empty EWEB envelope, two valentines
(one from someone else’s fiancee), two winter term 61-62 time sched
ules of classes, three 1959 psych lab projects belonging to someone
else, a list of the things in his desk, a letter from Governor Hatfield
to someone else, a column the Emerald never used, 209 used campus
mail envelopes, a note from a student requesting that the Emerald
return his letter from Governor Hatfield which he had lent to the
Emerald, a label from the inside of an ROTC hat which said “Built
in smartness—lasts to the very end,” a poem which began “Don’t
forget something which should not be forgotten,” and three pic
tures of the editorial page editor, which he says can be obtained
upon request from the editorial editor.
Whatever can be said of life with Slogs, however, there is one
good thing in his favor: unlike another room mate of mine, he does
not bless the apartment with a fresh supply of kittens every nine
months.
Slogs also eats Dairy Queens. (“You can always tell a Dairy
Queen,” he says, “but you can’t tell it much.”)
You should eat Dairy Queens, too. They are good for you. Also,
while at the DQ store, you might just run into The Wandering Slogs
as he wends his way down to lay in a fresh supply of goodies. (He
likes to be called The Wandering Slogs. He has ever since he read
a book about the legend of the Wandering Jew. He likes to think of
himself as an old man with a long, white beard who lives forever.
He hasn’t had much luck with the long, white beard yet.) If you
don’t run into him down there, however, it’s still worth the trip.
