Richard Kennedy told campus Young Democrats Thursday night He said although Oregon back ed Johnson, and elected Straub as State Treasurer in 1984, Dem orrats were not elected in many crucial areas. He said the "Republican-domin ted" Statehouse has not done what it should to solve three pressing problems. • Pollution. Kennedy charged one of the problems major poilu-1 tion problems, the Willamette riv- ■ er, is still dirty because Hatfield's major campaign contributors in clude a plant **. . , that dumps 40, 000 tons of waste a month . . j into the river. • Education "The Republicans last session did much for higher education, but they did not do enough There are still students living in motels on this campus because there is no dorm space The student teacher ratio will not be 19-1 this year, but closer to 25-1. At Portland State the ratio will be around 35-1 due to in creased enrollment. • Fire Danger. A decision to close or to postpone the hunting season due to the extreme fire danger should have been made, he said. "Gov. Robert Holmes had the courage to make the closures in 1958 and it cost him popular ity. The situation is twice as crit ical today as it was then. "If another Tillamook Burn develops out of the situation, it will be due to the inability of the governor of this state to make basic decisions." Index Sports pages 4 5 | Classified page 6 page 8 Page 8 Kennedy said one of the rea sons the recent Democrat-con trolled legislatures were unable to make much progress is that the margins of majority were too small, usually one or two. He attributed the large number of bills passed in Congress this session to the large Democratic majority, and said many of them would not have passed with a smaller Democratic advantage in Congress. He said Young Democrats could do a great deal to up party fortune in the 1966 elections, which, Ken nedy said, has been called ex tremely important by many other prominent Oregon Democrats.

In a letter to Pat Powers, presi dent of Alpha Omicron Pi soror ity, former Oregon Secretary of State Howell Appling, Jr., noti fied Miss Powers of the fund in memory of his daughter and asked that any funeral contributions be made as donations to it. The fund will be administered through the University Develop ment Fund. Miss Appling died five hours after the care she was driving went out of control and was struck by another car at 8:15 p in. Sun day on Delta Highway, north of Eugene. Also killed in the crash was Stephen Terrel, 18, who was a sophomore journalism major at the University. He was riding with Miss Appling. She was a sophomore in his tory and had pledged the sorority Friday. ta .-.—.-- Editorial _ - _ The Conduct Program There is no editorial page in today’s Emerald. Instead, we are publishing the complete text of the Uni versity of Oregon Student Conduct Program on pages 9, 10 anil 11. This is the July 1, 1965, edition of the Conduct Program which was mailed to all new students during the summer; no changes in this version have been made to date by the Student Conduct Committee. The Emerald feels that this text, incorporating the Code of Student Conduct, the Administration of the Code, and the Rules and Regulations, has become somewhat of a revolutionary document among American colleges and universities. It has also had a somewhat turbulent two year history. The underlying assumption in the Conduct Program at the University is that college-aged individuals should be allowed a large measure of self-government. But, unfortunately, this principle has sometimes been used to distort the intentions of the program, often by persons displaying very little acquaintance with the document itself. For this reason, we believe that every student, faculty member and administrator in this University has a strict obligation to read and study the entire text of the program. It is long, almost twice the length of the original document, and it is wegihty—too weighty just to glance at over morn ing coffee. So we encourage you to save the text and read it now and then with intelligent understanding. Without such an understanding, the thoughtful principle behind the program can mean very little when put to a practical test. UO, Dutch Institute Begin Student Exchange Proa ram By DAVE BAKONTI Staff Writer Thanks in part to a not-so chance meeting, the School of Business at the University and the Netherlands Institute for Foreign Representation have each concluded a successful search. Both now have a brother insti tute willing to participate in a joint student exchange program with their schools. Mark R. Greene, professor of business administration, on leave in The Netherlands last winter, tracked down Professor W. Grad er of the Institutes, and the two ironed out the details. This fall. Professor Grader has 19 of his students at the University study ing commerce; and 17 University business majors are at the N.I.F.R. Grader and the Dutch students involved related some of the val ues of the program at a press con ference held yesterday in John son Hall. The most important benefit em phasized was the specialization of the University’s business school. “At the institute.” said Senior Jan Mueldi, “business majors must take much more general courses, including at least four or five languages. Here, we can con centrate more on our major.” All but four of them plan to remain at the University for an other year. Many hope to even I *s X. HERE are the first signs of “Quack Tracks,’’ theme of Homecom ing 1965. Suggesting that students “Watch the Ducks” (who now have a 2-0 football record), this sign is an advance reminder of the Oct. 30 date. A U.O. vs. Idaho football game and a Victor Borge concert will be the big events of “Quack Tracks.” Gov. Scranton, Sen. Fong May Speak at University By ANNETTE BUCHANAN Staff Writer "There is a good chance Gover-| nor William Scranton of Penn sylvania will speak at a meeting of the University Young Repub licans later this term,” announced chairman Don Powell at Thurs day night’s meeting. He went on to explain that the Political Union at the Univer sity of Washington had extended Scranton an invitation to speak in Seattle. If he does accept he will probably come to Eugene UT Cast Member To Join Audience One member of University The ater’s USO “Guys and Dolls” Eu ropean tour company, Tom Fore man, won’t be in the play. But he may be in the audi ence. Foreman was nabbed by the Selective Service boys Sept. 20 and is now in U.S. Army basic training. University Theater dis closed Thursday. Foreman, a graduate in music, was to have played the role of “Sky Masterson.” The role will now be played by Gerald Jacob son, a drama major. The 18-member cast has been filled out with Donald Hackstaff, a graduate transfer from the Uni versity of Nevada. also. Senator Hiram Fong of Hawaii is planning a trip through the western states sometime this term and will probably speak at a YR meeting. Speaker of the House Monte Montgomery, an unannounced candidate for governor, will speak at the October 7 meeting. Limited debate on club resolutions is also planned. Clay Myers, assistant to Secre tary of State Tom McCall, an other unannounced candidate for governor, will speak on his be half at the October 19 meeting. State Senator Anthony Yturri, (R-Ontario), an announced guber natorial candidate, will speak later in the term. Last night’s meeting, attended by approximately 75 persons, featured speakers Fred Van Natta, Executive Director of the Lane County Central Committee, and Mike Ragsdale, Chairman of the Lane County Young Repub licans. Van Natta asked for volunteer help with the party programs in Lane County, looking forward to the May primaries. Ragsdale hopes to work closely with the local precincts to con tact new residents and present them with a packet of GOP ma terials and information on voter registration. As county chairman of the (Continued on fage 3) tually work for American firms in Europe or Dutch firms in the states. ‘‘This experience is tre mendously valuable toward that goal,” said Grader. As a school, the all-boy N.I.F.A. is unique because it is the only school in Europe specializing completely in commerce, primar ily international. Students there must go to a factory in a foreign country each January in their junior and se nior years for a month of practi cal study. A large number of the 350 students enrolled eventually do graduate work outside of Hol land. Specialization Boys enrolled can expect to be in the class some 45 hours each week, though it normally takes less than 30 minutes to prepare for those classes each evening. Consequently, the change to the University’s style of education is quite radical. Nearly every student, let it be known, when asked, that he was having trou ble keeping up wth his 40 pages or so of reading each night — though each felt that he would eventually get used to it. And, though they haven’t much time to enjoy it, they indicate there is much more social life at the campus. The only social gath ering place at the institute was a small bar room where all the students were expected to gather. Grader indicated that he is re turning to The Netherlands next spring but that in the next few years the Institute will continue 1 to exchange students with the University. Benefits Reported He reported the benefits Dutch students would have in studying the American civilization and learning the language. As an ex ample he invited Edwin Beal, Uni versity professor of management who came back from Europe aft er two years’ study "more Euro pean than American.” Marketing instructor Dan Remington is quick to point out that this is not a cultural ex change program, but one which is specifically designed to aid the students. Everyone Pays Everyone, he said, is paying the equivalent of $2,000 for the benefit of this experience. He added that the University stu dents will have a much better background in foreign business, an area in which America is un questionably deficient. The University students at the Institute are taking a program which includes four business courses by an American professor, a language, the customary field trips, several N.I.F.R. courses, and a month-long work study pe riod in a foreign establishment. Forty days of free travel time will also be provided. 'Guys and Dolls' Adds Performance An additional performance of “Guys and Dolls” has been an nounced for Sunday at the Uni versity Theatre.
