Look around the campus of WIS and your curiosity should be satisfied. The halls are filled with in-between class snack remains, gum wrappers, candy papers, pop cups and other litter can be sighted in the halls, classrooms and In the parking lot. Previous editorials have brought this problem to the at tention of the students. It appears they were too Indifferent to heed and do something about the mess. It's time now to start taking on the responsibility of cleaning up after our selves. A school like ours should be a school to take pride in, not to use as a wastcbasket. (Editorial from the December 5 HehLsch). "Stash the trash" where It belongs ... the trash can! Sixth Grade Capitalism A new kind of grading system has been adopted by a sixth grade California schoolteacher. It is based on a point and Incentive system that pays the student, In imaginary dol lars, for good work and fines him when he falls down on the job. The teacher says the system works: ". . . It has done away with grades. I substitute academic dollars." At the beginning of the year, the instructor gives each pupil a $500 credit to start the semester. The nest egg ex pands or shrinks, according to the caliber of acaaemic work produced by Its owner. Students can build small empires. A superior student can acquire a firm that dispenses facts to those who were inattentive in class or didn't do homework. There are about a dozen other firms successful students can buy and operate. They also may earn academic dollars for helping slower students, for good work habits and for coop eration In class. Says the instructor: "You can't keep the kids at home. They come even when they're sick . . . The students are motivated to work." When parents criticize the idea of bringing capitalism into the schools, the teacher answers, "But I'm teaching the American way of life . . ." What Is wrong with capitalism? The imaginative California schoolteacher deserves praise. We need more like him. The Arlsona Farm Bureau Federation quoted a Wisconsin Industrialist as saying a new building should be erected on every college campus A WOODSHED. The Issue is Free Choice Efforts to organize U. S, agricultural workers drew nation al attention when union activities In the vineyards of Calif ornia extended to the point of imposing boycotts against re tail merchants handling table grapes. The real issue in the grape boycotts is whether U. S. agriculture must submit to compulsory unionism and wheth er retail merchants can be compelled to remove items from their shelves by the force of boycotts thereby depriving U. S. consumers of free choice in the marketplace. Farm groups all over the country have formed "Freedom To Market Commit tees" which have undertaken to correct the false images of the grape boycott and to uphold the right of consumers to buy in the marketplace. It is inconceivable that any single group in the U. S. should gain dictatorial powers over an industry as basic as agriculture. And yet, this Is what pres ent organizing efforts amount to. As the Chicago Tribune comments: "If the union is suc cessful In the vineyards it can move on to corral hundreds of thousands of workers in other crops as well. And with the power to strike at harvest time it would then have gain ed a dangerous degree of control over a significant portion of the nation's food supply. Congress should see to it that no union gets that much power." TO THE EDITOR Dear Editor: A poison ring maybe? Shades of Cleopatra? Ormond R. Bean, who served as City Commissioner for many years in Poitlatul and latt-r was with the Lang Syne Society of the Oregon Historical society is the owner of this mysterious piece of Jewelry. Mr. and Mrs. Bean spent about 14 months In Cairo, Egypt, In the 1910's and while Ihere he was intrigued with an Interest ing ring hand made of metal and on top of which was an enamel piece perhaps which came from Italy. On this enam el top Is a small picture of a tree. According to the merch ant who sold the ring it Is thought that under this tree Is tiny poison via! which will be released as soon as someone touches the hidden spring of the ring top. "Well," says Mr. Bean. "I have never opened the ring and what Is more I don't plan to." Mr. Bean represented the State Department In Cairo and while there he and Mrs. Bean visited the Holy Land and oht- er interesting places. At present he is retired and the Beans are living at Terw li nger Plaza. Mr. Bean had a brother. Dr. Harold Bean, who spent some- ime practicing in Heppner In the late 1920s.

Ricky and the baby were at the Heppner Christian Church. Paul is the son of Martin Clrak who preached here for several years in the early 1940's. Paul preaches In the First Christian Church in Vemonla. He showed films and talked on the Osaka Bible Seminary where his fath er serves. Martin Is now Presi dent of the Seminary. Much of hiss message was about the O saka Bible Seminary and its his tory. Some highlights follow. Mr. and Mrs. M. B. Madden, pioneering among the pepolc in Japan, envisioned a Bible Col lege In Japan about 1935. Mr. and Mrs. Harold W. Cole ac cepted the call to Inaugurate this project, and Osaka Bible Seminary was Instituted In 1937 ble Seminary training program in 1948 In temporary quarters. On Apll 23, 1950, the Martin Clarks began leadership of the school. Osaka Bible Seminary has its basic source of income from gifts and offerings of the Christ ians In the U. S. channeled through the missionaries whom they support or sent directly. After the film and message, a tape recording with a mes sage from Mr. Martin was play ed. Also several members spoke on a tape to be sent to Mar tin in Japan. At the conclus ion of the program Rev. Don Johnson presented a check for $227 to Paul who accepted the check for his father. This mon ey was a tithe of the Harvest Offering plus money designated June 7. 1945, climaxed the trag-1 for Martin.

Are they on the loose or are they some ones granddaughter? That has been the burning question at Terwilliger Plaza the last few days. Here one day a resident of the fifth floor stop ped In the Lounge and there laying on the floor was a dirty bare foot girl with filthy feet The lady was so shocked at the sight that she was speechless and went on to her apartment The girl was laying down be fore a case of magazines and was digging them out madly. Was she just looking for one or was she loading up for THE PAD" How did she get in? All of the outside doors are kept locked now except the front since they wander in now and then looking for a soft place to sleep (on the carpeted floors). It was only 39 degrees the day tne barefoot lass was on the move. When the Mahoneys were in Portland recently, Hazel saw them on the street and called them "welrdoes" (whatever they are). We used to sleep with un locked apartment doors, now they are locked and a chain on besides. We never felt afraid as all outside doors are locked at night.
