On Three Counts
By JOB FRAZIER
Nows Editor
Democrats will havo to make
significant gains in IWki, or the
party will decline in Oregon, Hep.
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."

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.

Memorial Fund
For Appling Girl
A Beverly Appling Memorial 1
Scholarship Fund has been creat
ed in honor of Miss Appling, a
former University student who
died Monday as a result of an
automobile accident.
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

sophomore journalism major at
the University. He was riding
with Miss Appling.
She was a sophomore in his
tory and had pledged the sorority

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

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.

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. The play features
the University’s USO tour com
pany which will take the musical
comedy on a tour of the Euro
pean Command this fall.
