OREGON STATE
COLLEGE
By MARILYN HILL
The nearness of the end of winter term came into full re
alization this week as students glanced at the daily newspaper
and found the ever-dreaded final examinational schedule. All
tests will be held during the week of March 13-18.
Staters expressed their disap-
proval of the long-standing, no-
dating-at-athletic-games tradi
tion in a close vote in a special
election this week. The election
results should bring to an end
the almost continual debates of
the past year on whether the in
formal bans on dating at athletic
events should be continued. For
ty-five percent of the student
body or 3028 students cast Bat
lots on the question, while only
2300 voted in the student body
elections last spring.
A convocation, banquet, fo
rums, and discussion groups will
be included in the Northwest
Peace conference, "World Peace
Laboratory,'' on the campus this
week-end. Delegates from north
west colleges will gather on the
OSC campus to discuss the prob
lems of world peace. Dr. Wilson
Compton, president of Washing
ton State college, opened the con
ference activities at a convoca
tion Wednesday. Forums, show
ing the students relation to peace
through chosen profession or so
cial interests, and the religious
basis for world peace will also
be considered.

of the junior class are now com
peting for the title of Junior
Prom Queen of 1950. Out of an

prom court. Mariann Bone
steele is one of the ten finalists.

arship, personality, poise, and
beauty were considered. The five
finalists for the prom of March
3, will be announced next week

the term, with nothing scheduled
on an all-school basis, became
one of the most active week

"There were 13,599 employees who were with the company in a non
management capacity in 1939, and who were still with us in 1949.... It
is noteworthy that 4,880 or 36 per cent of these employees had prog
ressed from the non-management into management forces, which em
phasizes the opportunity for advancement in the business."
from the Annual Report for 1949 of The Pacific Telephone and Telegraph Company.
The record of this ten -year period proves again that the op
portunity to advance is indeed unusual in this up-from-the-ranks
industry. More than one out of three went ahead to
management positions. All had the chance to progress. This
was true of women as well as of men.

There is big opportunity for advancement in the telephone
