Kids can conform or run—Fearl
vjiiivcioh) pi UlCddUI OI
education Art Pearl leaned
heavily on adult evasiveness and
cited the need for political power
Monday night.
Speaking informally with a
group of 15 persons at the Eugene
Public Library, Pearl said,
“Children today are relying on
us—the adults—the request for a
better world, only we can’t give it
to them. We’ve become too ac
customed to running away from
our problems.”
The meeting was the seventh of
an eight-meeting series spon
sored by the University and
Community Project group ex
piormg tne problems of the
‘‘Generation Gap” Pearl’s talk
was directed to the problem as it
applies to schools.
•Kids are faced with three
choices,” Pearl explained,
“conform, fight or run. They’ve
been thinking about fighting, but
when and if they turn to that, they
know they’re going to lose.
“So really, they have only two
choices: to conform or to run.”
He said that, to the younger
generation, conformity was
usually unbearable and kids were
left only with the alternative of
running.
But the route of escapism, he
explained, although widely ac
cepted was still not an acceptable
choice. Education and politics
were named as two possible ways
to cure the running problems.
“You can begin to do things
about problems when you have
an educated population. And, like
it or not, the schools are the best
place we have right now to ac
complish that.”
Pearl explained, however, that
schools had a little problem
solving of their own to do before
the job of education could be
successfully accomplished.
He claimed, “The education of
people who think they are in
significant as individuals, was
the most frightening aspect of
schools.
“We've taught people—in our
schools—that they are in
significant for years,’’ he said.
“That’s a lie. You are significant.
Your voice matters.”
Project Director Armando
Laguardia. instructor in
education at the University said a
representative of Eugene's
school district 4-J will extend the 1
subject of Schools and the
“GenerationGap” at next week’s $
meeting.
Hitchhiker files suit
“No person shall stand in a roadway for the purpose of soliciting a
ride from the driver of any private vehicle,” the Oregon statute on
hitchhiking reports.
This interpretation has recently become the subject of a lawsuit
filed in Lane Circuit court.
The plaintiff in the suit is 26 year old Stephen Giardini, a third year
law student from Northeastern University, Boston, Mass. Giardini is
currently a law clerk in the office of Eugene attorney Charles Porter,
who is representing him in the suit.
The suit seeks a judgment to overturn State Attorney General Lee.
Johnson’s opinion of ‘roadway.’ The opinion issued by the Attorney
General states: “The ‘roadway’ is that portion of a street or highway
on which vehicles actually travel, including the adjacent ‘shoulder’
area which vehicles use for temporary and emergency travel.”
Johnson was named as defendant in the case because he issued the
interpretation, and Lane County District Attorney Robert Naslund,
whose duty is to prosecute violators of the law, has been named as co
ueieiiuam.
According to Porter, “the Attorney General erroneously extended
the power that was given in the law to give the police power to arrest
who they want to.” Porter also said that Johnson’s opinion is being
used as the basis for arrest by police and sheriffs all over the state.
In the opinion issued by Johnson, “the ‘shoulders’ of modem high
ways are normally improved portions of the highway.” Johnson also
stated, “Though not intended to be used for high speed travel, or any
travel except in special circumstances, the shoulder is nonetheless
intentionally designed so that it can be used, and is ordinarily used by
motorists for limited travel in emergency and other special, but
frequently occurring, cases.”
Giardni said that winning the suit in Lane Circuit Court would
have the effect of overturning Johnson’s ruling throughout the state.
Judgment for the plaintiff will also have the effect of making the law
clear to hitchhikers and the police, according to Porter.
Giardini said he originally started out driving to Eugene from
Massachusetts, but after his car broke down in New Jersey, ended up
hitchhiking the rest of the way. He said he has previously taken many
East Coast jaunts and still hitches regularly.
Giardini is in Oregon to help fulfill curriculum requirements for
Northeastern University. Part of the law program calls for two month
periods working as a legal aide to practicing attorneys.

Cartoon
BY WILT DISNEY
NEWMAN'S LAUGHOGRAMS
(1*25)
Disney's very first cartoons, never
before seen and only recently
discovered. These are political
cartoons which comment on the
evils of liberalism and the menace of
creeping socialism. Disney himself
appears in this uproarious com
bination of live action and
animation.
THE MICKEY MOUSE
TRILOGY (1f32-1934)
Next to Steamboat Willie, these are
unquestionably the classic Mickey
cartoons: MICKEY AND SIMON
LEGREE, GOLDRUSH MICKEY,
ROBINSON CRUSOE MICKEY
Each one illustrates a part of the
development of the Mouse character
that we all have come to know and
love as the years rolled by.
DONALD DUCK
THE MECHANIC (1933)
One of the very first that starred the
mad anarchist. In this one, Donald,
Mickey, and Goofy encounter the
villainous Black Pete.
DONALD DUCK
THE REPAIRMAN (1934)
Here Donald is on his own, trying to
cope with his fiery temper and the
machine age.
MICKEY'S GALA PREMIERE
(1933)
Disney's salute to Hollywood's
immortals. To the premiere of a new
Mickey Mouse cartoon at Grand
Grauman's theater come animated
characterizations of the stars:
Wallace Beery, Clark Gable, the
Marx Brothers, Marie Dressier, and
many more.
ALICE'S EGG PLANT ( 1927)
Don't miss this one! A rare gem that
is Disney's paranoid vision of
communism in the trade unions as
fomented by the l.W.W. High camp.
CHRISTMAS TOYLAND (1929)
A beautiful, sentimental vision that
was the forerunner of so many
musical cartoons.

CONQUEST OF THE POLE
(1909)

the evils of mariiuana and opium.

captures the perfection of an un
derwater world.
