Representative Criticizes UniversitySpeakerChoice “The roster of scheduled speakers being presented by the Associated Students and the In ter-Fraternity Council at the University of Oregon is shock ing,” Clackamas County Rep resentative Leo Thornton told a house group last week. In a letter to Dr. Arthur S. Flem- • ing, President of the University, Mr. Thornton said, “I consider most of the speakers listed to have demonstrated to the Amer ican public a lack at social responsibility and integrity.” An article appearing in the Oregonian on Jan. 25 headed, “Oregon University Students Book Speakers Covering Full Range of Social Ideas was the cause of Thornton’s concern. In his letter to Dr. Fleming Thornton said, “First, I will differ with the title at the ar ticle, which I know is not die responsibility of the University but even so I do believe thé listed speakers in the article do not represent a “Full Range of Social Ideas.” The list of speakers included in the Oregonian article are Stokely Carmichael (coordina tor for the Student Non- Violent Coordinating Commit tee), George Lincoln Rockwell (head of the American Nazi Estacada Lions To Get Charter The Estacada Lions Club will receive their national charter at ceremonies to be held on Satur day, Feb. 11, at Estacada High School.

The Clackamas County Rep resentative who was elected to the House last fall is a de scendant of a pioneer Oregon family.
