advised Kiwanians that "we ap
ply the same standards of meas
urement to the coach as we do to
our professors, deans and the rest
of the lesser positions.
Dr. Newburn added that at first
he was going to apologize for
.'- "':en's background, too "He's a
philosophy major, and that sounds
kind of funny for a coach, but
knowing the background, of the
football situation here at Oregon,
we decided that being a philoso
pher would be a big help."
Aiken stressed the need for har
mony "in our own athletic family.
We must have cooperation and
loyalty here at Oregon. I don't
expect," he said, "to be the goat
of a sickly athletic association, and
if I am I'll fight like hell. I think
if we all pull together we can have
a fine team this fall. We have
spirit, the morale is high and
mean to keep it that way." '
Kiwanians stood and applauded
when Aiken finished his talk.
