Relics of Ancient Race
Found Near Eugene
Eugene, Ore. Remains of an ar
chaic civilization, in existence long
before the coming of the white
man, have been discovered in the
Willamette valley In the vicinity of
Eugene by Dr. L. S. Cressman, uni
versity anthropologist, and during
the next few weeks Dr. Cressman
expects to do further investigation
which may lead to the discovery
that the civilizations may corres
pond to those in the North San
Joaquin valley in California.
The mounds, which have long ex
cited the curiosity of historians and
anthropologists, are located along
the Longman Tom, Willamette and
Calapooia rivers. They vary in size
from 40 to 130 feet in diameter and
from 2 to 5 feet In height. Trees
that have lived and died in these
mounds indicate the age of the
mounds is at least older than the
life span of the trees. From top to
bottom they are a mixture of soil
enriched by refuse and charcoal.
Remains of what Dr. Cressman
thinks was probably an Indian
"sweat house" were also discov
ered. This was a pit, over which
Indians piled brush for a hot fire.
The Indian cure for illness was to
take a sweat bath and then plunge
Into cold water, It was explained.

Relief in 1 933
ing and the flour cost the Red Cross
1735,000 from its treasury.
The last of the flour was shipped
by the Red Cross in June, and the
last of the clothing was distributed
in October.
Children were clothed for school
this autumn and their parents were
given garments to meet their needs.
This relief task was assumed by
the Red Cross in addition to its char
tered obligations In disaster relief,
aid to veterans, health and safety
education. Red Cross aid was given
In 117 disasters In the Unitod States
and her Insular possessions during
the year. This relief work is made
possible through the annual roll call
for members carried on hyRed
Cross chapters each year from
Armistice Day to Thanksgiving Day.

Editorial
Of late there has been much dis
cussion of the newly proposed
amendment regarding the number
of activities one student may head
at one time, and also what require
ments a student must have in order
to head any organization.
It is felt that a large part of this
discussion has been due to a mis
understanding of the regulations as
provided for in the proposed
amendment
For this reason, perhaps It would
be well to present the articles them
selves. They were written by the
student council after a week of
study, and read as follows:
1. No student shall lead more
than one class and one other organ
ization of activity at one time. This
means that a student may be a class
president and also head some other
activity, but no more than one oth
er. 2. No student shall head the same
activity or class more than twice
and these must not be consecutive
terms. In other words, a student
may not be a class president or a
club leader more than twice in his
time in the school and no one shall
be elected for two succeeding terms.
3. In order to head any class, club
or other activity a student must
have and maintain while in office a
total scholastic rating of three;
that is, a student may get lower
than a three in a few subjects but
his whole card must average a
three. If a club or class leader
should fall below this minimum
grade standing his duties will auto
matically devolve upon the vice
president or next lower official be
low the president until such time
as the average grade rating may
be regained. ,
4. The student body president
shall not be subject to the third ar
ticle of this amendment and he or
she may not hold any other office
while serving his or her term as
student body president except those
relegated to that office by the stu
dent body constitution.
These are all the articles of the
bill. As to the effect of the bill
It will do two things: first, by lim
iting the number of offices one stu
dent may hold, it will give more
students a chance to lead in student
activities.
Secondly, by giving more oppor
tunities to lead, more students will
receive that all important exper
ience of acting on their own initia
tive and of leading others.
Armistice Day Program
An Armistice Day program was
held In the school gymnasium last
Friday afternoon at 3:00 o'clock to
fittingly observe the day of peace
making. The program was opened
by the pep band which played sev
eral selections. This was followed
by group singing. The audience
sang some of the most popular war
songs, among them being "There's
a Long, Long Trail," "Keep the
Home Fires Burning," and "There
Are Smiles." Mr. Bloom told of
the origin of each of these songs.
The second number on the pro
gram, a poem, "In Flanders' Field,"
was given by Francis NIckerson.
The address of the day was giv
en by Spencer Crawford, a member
of the local American Legion post.
Mr. Crawford told of the horrors,
the heartaches, and sorrows of the
World War. He told of the Joy
and jubilance of the soldiers on
