.The Bend AC
Did you ever hear of the Bend Athletic Club?
Well, neither djd anyone clue until Saturday.
It was Saturday afternoon that Dean Benson, the
ex-Lava Hear who has been Willamette's aee hurdler
; for the past three years, came into the office for a little
i(i "visit. We asked future plans for track meets this year.
It turned out that Willamette is sending him to
" the NCAA meet in Los Angeles this weekend, and that
. -was the end of the track season for Dean.
'"- What about the AAU meet in Boulder, Colo., the
Mt following weekend?
The Multnomah club had decided not to send any
" "one to that meet the last he had heard, so he guessed
..,that meet was "out" as fur as he was concerned.
- -: So the Bend AC was formed on the spot, to send
"Benson to the meet.
. Why is the AAU meet so important?
Because from the top hurdlers, runners, junipers
and weight men at that meet the AAU will pick four
teams to send on a European tour for the rest of the
summer. Benson, one of the nation's fastest college hurd
' filers this year, has an excellent chance to be on one of the
teams.
The boys who go on those trips get invaluable ex
perience, not only in their track and field specialties,
but also because they see all of Europe as guests of the
"countries they visit.
,y, Tha summer meets this year will, in effect, be the
"warm up meets for the 1050 Olympics, to be held in Aus-
-tralia. Benson is considered an excellent Olympic pros
. pect for Melbourne.
- Few people will be able to make these trips, fewer
"' than 150 in the United States. Dean Benson has an ex
ccllent chance, if only he can get to Boulder.
Membership in the Bend AC costs $5. You get not
one tiling for your ?5 not even a membership card
... excepting the knowledge that you arc helping a deserv
ing kid get an opportunity he should have.
First few paid-up members in order are: Bob
.'"Chandler, Hugh Cole, Frank Loggan, George Mirich, By
. ron Benson and Henry Fowler. Further names will be
found on The Bulletin's sports pages daily until the total
amount necessary is raised.
The club already has funds necessary to buy a new
track suit, with "Bend AC" printed across the front. A
ullow track nut, member Shorty Hofsledt, has promised
delivery in time for the trip to Boulder. Cost for the en
tire outfit will be under $25.
United Air Lines will haul Dean by air coach from
San Francico to Denver, back to San Francisco and then
to Bend we hope he makes the European trip and
doesn't need to come back for n few weeks for the
sum of $13-1.81.
The club expects to pay hotel and meal expenses
for Dean running to about $!)0, for a total of the three
items of $250.
Bill Bowerman of the University of Oregon, the only
honorary member of the club, will furnish coaching and
training services in Boulder.
The club needs 50 members at $5 each. Saturday
afternoon it had seven in !10 niinutus. The other Ui of
the members can send their money - or bring it in
to Mary Damon of The Bulletin's office staff, who is
acting as unpaid treasurer.
Byrne's Blast
A few days ago the outgoing chancellor of the Ore
gon System of Higher Education, Dr. Charles D. Byrne,
blasted away at the stale legislature because that body
had tied some strings on funds appropriated for the sys
tem during the next biennium.
It's apparent, on looking into it, that it's the system
the legislature uses which is wrong, not the matter of
legislative determination of policy and control of expen
ditures, Most of the controls seem to come via ukase from
the Ways and Means commiltco.
If they were to come as a result of a vote of the
whole legislative body the practice would seem to be a
sound one. There never has been an infallible adminis
trative body yet, and the Stale Hoard of Higher Kduca
tion does not seem to be the first of its kind.

WASHINGTON (NKA) The
battle between the railroads and
the motor trucking industry is a

In one rim? the railroads are try

It was on June 14, 1777, that the
Continental Congress adopted the
stars and stripes, and the govern
ment at Washington requested that
all public buildings float the fl ig
in honor of the day. The birthday
of the flag was also observed in
New York, where all government
and municipal buildings hoisted the
colors: in Boston, where appropr-
ate exercises were held, and in
Philadelphia. where programs
were given at Independence Hall

The first man to advocate mak

Molotov Making
To Hang on to Job for a While
By United Press
Cv.int nrelL'n Minister Vyach-
M. Moloiov is acting like a
man who expects lo keep his joi.
,or a wmle.
There were reports early this
month, during the Kussian pilgrim
,eo to Belgrade, that the veteran
.iolotov was on his way out.
D..t at thr. moment. MolotoV is
, his wav to the United Slates ti
attend the 10th anniversary meet
,ng of the United Nations in oan
r'rancisco.
There he will confer informally
with the foreign ministers of tin
united Slates, Great Britain and
France. The four diplomats will
make preparations lor me- out
.-,.,. mnniini' "at the summit"
which probably will be held in
Geneva, Switzerland, July lo.
There is no reason to believe
that Molotov will be replaced be
fore the Geneva meeting.
After President Eisenhower ana
h nther "Dimmit" leaders have
finished their talks in Geneva, the
Big Four foreign ministers are to
conduct prolonged negotiations on
specific issues.
In all, the way things arc shaping
im ihis seems to be rather an awk
ward time for any change in the
Soviet foreign ministry.
Molotov Celling Old
It is true that Molotov is getling
old. He is 65. It is true also that
Soviet foreign policy has found the
going rough these last lew monins.
But Moloiov pronnoiy is uie
