FRESHMAN HOUSING PLAN
For the second time in two years announcement is made
at the University of Oregon of a change in the basic plan for
student housing which will place first years students under
direct supervision 01 the university, it will require dormitory
residence of all freshmen except those living with their par
ents in Eugene and those who are working in private homes
for their room and board. Its immediate effect will be to elim
inate freshman residence in fraternity or sorority houses.
Its long range results, judging from the experience of other
institutions of higher learning in which the plan has been giv
en a thorough trial, will be to provide a more gradual transi
tion from home to college life and, of chief importance, to
raise the level of scholarship.
It is a change which will have its social implications, too,
and the possibilities which these will afford are also, we be
lieve, for the better. If any degree of class consciousness orig
inates or is stimulated by the fraternity system and some
times this criticism is heard the fact that, in the future, all
members of Greek letter organizations will have spent at
least one-fourth of their undergraduate years in close as
sociation with non-members, should be potent in reducing or
eliminating it. It should aid in producing a more healthful at
mosphere in human relations as they develop on the campus.
A re-appraisal of values is another possible result. The
student, deterred from hasty entrance into membership in
one of the groups which we are discussing, may come to the
conclusion that it does not make any essential difference
whether his boarding house is designated by Greek letters
or not or whether he wears a distinctive pin and has ex
perienced ritualistic thrills. He may come to the conclusion
in his year of grace that it is quite immaterial whether
he can exchange a supposedly secret "grip." Perhaps, he
finds that he still craves such artificialties in group relations.
If so, well and good. Or he may agree with Ecclesiastes that
"all is vanity." Whichever his conclusions and appraisals
they will be made with a background of greater maturity.
Much of what is said here is a re-statement of our expres
sions of a year ago when the mandatory dormitory residence
plan was first announced, at that time intended to go into
effect with the opening of the present college year. Now that
the change is again proposed, we wish to bring" our approval
up to date and, at the same time,' to suggest that there should
be no further postponement.
THE FREMONT JOURNAL
Some years ago we ran in our news columns the portion of
the Fremont journal written by the explorer from the day
that he was preparing to leave The Dalles on his southward
journey until he went on out of Oregon into California and
Nevada. Each day there appeared the journal record for the
same date in 1843, the year of the exploration.
On the journey south the Fremont party crossed the area
that is now the Warm Springtj-lpdjan reservation and the re
cent opening of the highway across the reservation has sug
gested to us that there would be renewed interest today in the
journal. Hundreds of our present day readers were not here
to read the journal when it was first carried in our columns.
There are many who did read it, we are sure, who would like
to re-read it in the light of the Warm Springs highway
development. Accordingly, we are preparing to reproduce the
journal again and the first installment will appear in tomor
row's paper.
WASHINGTON COLUMN

(NKA Staff Correspondent)
Washington (NEAl The night
Admiral Denfeld was ousted from
his job as chief of naval opera
tions many friends came to call at
his home and sympathize. There
was confusion in the living room
and during the excitement fhe
admiral's dog, Frisco, nipped one
of the guests. . Denfeld asked 8
servant to put the pup outside.
The servant obliged but gave the
dog the following admonishment
In a very loud voice:
. "G'wan outside. If you must
nip somebody's heels, find Secre
tary Matthews and bite him."
The place rocked with laughter
for five minutes. '
At a recent meeting of farm
leaders In Washington a noted
social scientist predicted that at
the rate they were going now,
U. .S farmers would all have ra
dios and mechanical refrigerators
before they all got running water,
telephones and bathrooms in their
homes. This was attributed to
the postwar buying habits of the
American farmer.

Gilbert S. Underwood, a top
government architect, has jusf
returned from a series of confer
ences with European architects,
partly in connection with the Mar
shall plan. He reports that Nor
wegian public building designers
are faced with a brand-new prob
lem caused by the new Paris
dress styles. It has become the
fashion for worse women ro carry
their dresses to parties, the thea
ter, or restaurants, and put them
on after they arrive.
It's so cold outside the women
have to wear several layers of
woolen undies- But these undies
don't look good under the latest
style dresses, so at their destin
ation they park . their longies
while they wear their dresses, and
then change back when thay
leave.
Problem for the architects is to
provide dressing rooms for this
new custom. The conventional
powder rooms aren't! large
enough, underwood reports. Me s
glad Washington has a warmer
climate, what with the new styles
becoming popular here.
An editorial' in the United
Mine Workers' Joufnal takes 8
dim view of the new ,75-cents-an-hour
minimum wage law. It
says:
"At first reading it appears that
it should be labeled 'the 1949 law
yer's' employment act' since, In
the long run, the revised legal
aspects of the law may enrich
lawvera coffers to an amount
equal to the estimated $300,000,000
accruing to worKers."

Uncle Sam is conducting a big
drive to encourage American
farmers to go to Europe for their
vacations. One such tour oy u. .
farmers was arranged last year
and turned out to be a big success.
Reason behind the Plan is the
fact that farmers don't take their
vacations in the summer time.
Government hopes to reduce the
hlehlv seasonal aspect of U. S.
tourists going abroad, for the
benefit of the Marshall plan
countries.
After congress thought it had
liberalized the provisions of the
GI bill to permit more veterans
to take flight training, a veterans
administration official boasted
that the new provisions could be
administered in such a manner
that it would actually tighten the
veteran flight training program.
And that is exactly what has hap
pened. The first full month that
the so-called liberalized changes
were in effect there was a cut
in the number of applications
which were approved -by the VA.
For the month of September there
were 3756 applications, with only
48 per cent approved, mat was
a substantial drop below previous
months, -

Czech Students
Ponder Doctrine

While Czechoslovakia's reformed
universities were busy enrolling
students for the winter semester,
the Czechoslovak press warned
that the universities would not be
a place of refuge for those who
do not want to work. .
This year, qualified students
were enrolled after they had sat

Elbai has modest accommoda

get by on 12,200 to 1.800 lire ($2
to $3) a day for room and board
in clean and tastefully appointed
hotels. Good wines and cuisine
are available. ' ;
The sea is deep oiue enclosed

sandy beaches with clean white

Mount Capanne on the western

roads are htill good enough for
cars.

Piombino and Portoferraio, a 16

tourist travels first class for 330

VALID OBJECTIONS TO
THE CVA
(Astorlan Budget)
There seems to be a good deal
,of speculation on the political
implications of Sen. Wnyne
Morse's statement on the Colum
bia valley administration bill. It
is seen as a bid to retain the
republican vole In the primary
election in case a strong anil
CVA candidate seeks the GOP
nomination against him.
Whatever the political angle
may be, ben. Morse probably is
sincere in his objections to the
bill as It now stands.
Ho sees some good ideas In the
CVA proposal, but is fearful of
the power It would give the ad
ministrators.
Sen. Morse's objections coin
cide with the fears of many other!
sincere objectors to the bill In
the northwest people who are
not stooges of the power com
pany, as proponents of the bill
call all people who oppose It.
It Is too bad that the CVA plan
has become a poltical football. If
the administration backers of the
CVA bill would show some dispo
sition to compromise on the ob
jections made to it, rather than
blame all opposition on "selfish
Interests," the Issue could prob
ably be kept out of politics and
debates on its merits. FA.
