Letters To the Editor (Coni in ilfii frinn />(/</:’_') play .several reactions to the situation apathy and confusion (ie, as witnessed by the long lines of glassy eyed students in the SU during registration) and/or revolt against “They” (ie., the faculty resentment against the stickers.) I am fully in sympathy with those faculty members and stu dents who eliminated the crude and vurgar symbol, but 1 think that it is pathetic and sympto matic that this is one of the few ways they could express their dissatisfaction It is interesting to wonder how the administra tion ("Kmerald Hall”) would have reacted to a more serious and meaningful revolt as for ex ample a mass refusal by students to fill out the objectionable per sonal information cards passed out during registration It is fine to "blow off steam" over parking stickers, just so nobody “wises up” and makes serious moves against “Kmerald Hall.” Bill l)rva!l Graduate in Sociology Ducky Sticker Kmerald Editor: Mrs. Robert Piper /"Letters” Oct, 4) asserts that the ducky parking sticker is a symbol "for the whole University commu fan of his epic career, knows that lovely Donald Duck, any pan of his epic career, knows that DD is all vital force, out raged virtue, maniacal energy, and in his race moments of calm, wholly charming. This University community, to my eyes, suffers from ataxia (general), outraged self right eousness (see Dean Hawk's pon tifical shortsightedness), and is, in its rare moments of calm, a collection of trees and buildings and football statistics. The charming duck deserves a better fate than to be covered with exhaust fumes and road slime He deserves a better fate than being the material repre sentation of the immaterial qualities of Rainforest t'niver siry.

Academic Orientation Emerald Editor: Relative to freshman orienta tion that is related intellectual ly oriented— The School of Business Ad ministration used a large portion of its Thursday evening time listing and discussing paper back books that are concerned with business and businessman and women. I believe the freshmen were stimulated and helped How ever the time available to the school was much too short to do the job we would like to do. In fact I believe the very ac tive intellectual ferment in busi ness thinking added to the im OKEGON DAILY EMERALD The Oregon Daily Emerald is published twice in September and five days a week during the academic year, except during ex amination and vacation periods by the Student Publications Board of the University of Oregon.

As international ten sions ease, this sort of attitude becomes less and less defensible Instead, research is vitally need ed to determine how such re sources can be best adapted to essential civilian purposes. A preliminary study of this reconversion problem, confined to black and white Duckies only, suggests the following: 1. From time to time it rains in Eugene. 2. Many Eugene cars, includ ing the writer’s are rusted through in places. 3. As rain flows through such rust holes, it tends to en large them. 4 Duckies are far more at tractive than large rust j holes. 5. Duckies are waterproof. 6. Duckies cling beautifully to the sound metal that often borders small rust holes. Should future research with colored Duckies reach similar findings, Oregon students with unrusted cars may have a real opportunity to both aid the less fortunate and to advance the I cause of Peace. Arthur L. Thomas Assistant Professor of Accounting • • • Koons (Continued from pwji’ 2) most passive nostrils flare The design, while obvious, is none, theless effective. The reader is unnerved. Here are students who know passion, who believe and who act. Horo witz repeats his message again and again: We, as students, have an obligation to question, to examine, and, if necessary, to change. That morning we went out to demonstrate against the House Committee we had other things on our minds: capital punishment, integration, peace, and all the issues in which our lives were involved and which we had begun, as students, to think about again.” STUDENTS SHOWS every sign of being hastily written. The style is awkward, the cliches sometimes embarrassing, and the narrative openly partisan Yet despite its serious failings, or perhaps because of them, the book has merit. Oregon’s student leaders would do well to read it, if only to discover that there can be something more to col lege life than “Junior Week end.” Poetry Writing Deadlines Told Deadlines have been announced for submission of manuscripts for publications in a pair of college oriented poetry anthologies. Deadline for the College Stu dent’s Poetry Anthology is Nov. 5. Jan 1 is the closing date for the submission of verse to the College Teacher’s National Poetry Anthology. Any student attending a col lege is eligible to submit his work to the former publication. Teachers and librarians are in vited to submit manuscripts to the latter. There is no limitation as to either form or theme. Shorter works are preferred because of space limitations. Each poem must be typed on a single sheet, and must bear the name and home address of the student, as well as the name of his school. All manuscripts should be sent to: National Poetry Press. 3210 Selby Ave., Los Angeles 34, Calif.
