U. of 0. Symposium
Presents Program
Two vivacious blondes and a
pretty brunette representing the
j U. of O. spoke to the AHS assem
bly, Monday, M arch 20, on the
subject, ’Juvenile Delinquency."
Fay Pettis, freshm an from E u
gene, Alice H arter, Junior of E u
gene, and Louise F letcher, fresh
man from Portland, introduced by
Mr. R. B. C lark of the speech
and dram atic departm ent of the
university, presented three phases
of this very timely topic, how ex
tensive is this problem, how Ore
gon handles h er cases, and how
other com m unities are m eeting lo
cal situations.
’Less than 2% of Am erican
school children
become delin
quents”, stated Miss P ettis, "but
of this group 75% become adult
crim inals ” She continued by s ta t
ing th a t It is a misconception to
think of delinquents com ing from
below average groups of young
people. They do tend to come from
poorer homes as is shown by the
num bers in the detention home in
Woodburn, not because the poor
are delinquent but because pover
ty lends Itself to delinquency.
W ar and poverty ag g rav ate but
do not cause this situation.”
O regon's lack of facilities in
court procedure^, in providing a d
equately triin e d personnel, and in
planning for segregation of new
and old offenders w as criticized
by Miss HMrter. O ther s ta te s have
gone for ahead of Oregon in esta
blishing rehabilitation program s
ra th e r than detention o r punish
m ent program s for young people.
From Ashland this symposium
team is going to G rants P ass and
then to Medford. N early all sec

m e WAVES project was o u t
lined here recently by Ensign E-
dzaoeth Hili of the WAVES en
listm ent headquarters for Oregon
a t 735 S.W. Alder street, P o rt
land.
"Xhe United S ta te s has asked
the Oregon Federation of Wo
m en’s clubs for help in the vital
[ and urgent program for the en
listm ent of WAVES who replace
trained navy men for duty a t sea,”
said Mrs. George Moorhead, S al
em, president of the Ofegon F ed
eration of W omen's clubs in an
nouncing the state-w ide program
which will bring 150 clubs and
5000 women into the project.
“The Navy desperately needs
men. Thousands are required for
the w arships now com ing off the
ways and for the naval shore
establishm ents
which m aintain
tin- fleet a t its full fighting
strength. The num bers of trained
men available from all sources
are fa r sh o rt of the requirem ents
it our seven ocean navy.”
“Therefore, more women are u r
gently needed in the WAVES to
release the tra in e d men a t shore
stations for this serfice a t sea.”
Each club m em bers becomes a
WAVE recruiter. She has full in
form ation on the opportunities
offered young women, the 22
schools a t which she m ay attend,
and o ther details of th e WAVES
program . The individual quota of
each club m em ber is to help in
enlisting at least one WAVE. H er
WAVES m ay come from any
place in Oregon, Southw estern
W ashington, and Idaho - - she is
not lim ited to her own com m unity.

MORE GARDENS ON
PACIFIC COAST TO
BE SOUGHT IN ’44
Pacific coast fam ilies will have
a g re ater stak e in seeing more
victory gardens produced this
y ear than ‘hose of other regions
because of the im pending heavy
troop movements in this area, it
was decided a t the recent reg
ional victory garden conference
held in P ortland.
This conference, attended by
representatives of Oregon, W ash
ington, Idaho, California, Nevada,
and Arizona, was arranged by the
Extension service a t Oregon S tate
college as one of a series of sim i
la r conferences throughout the
nation sponsored by the U. S. de
p artm e n t of agriculture. Plans
were agreed upon a t the confer
ence for enlisting coordinated aid
of every public o r private agency,
club,- o r group th a t can help in
su re the continued and even in
creased production of home g a r
dens This year.
“Indications are th at w ar in
th e Pacific will likely increase,
bringing a g re a te r demand for
food in our region,” the food re
quirem ents com m ittee of the con
ference reported. “This will result
in a trem endous increase in de
m and for com m ercially grown
foods. Thus, it is up to civilians
to m ake certain of th eir own food
supply by raising their own g a r
dens.’’
