Further plans were made for the coming bazaar. nounced that returning gradu ates, upon the payment of a $1 registration 'fee, would re ceive name-tags which would admit them to the entire week end's festivities including the Homecoming game. This would not include the ban quet for the alumni-dedication ceremonies for which registra tions in advance are required, Miss Murray stated. IPaDitpaDTraFiPtt 'The woman's vote is the pot of gold at the end of the political rainbow." So said a release which Potpourri re ceived a few days before election. The writer pointed out that the candidates who court the women's vote get elected, because there are almost 2 million more potential female voters in the nation than male voters. 'This is going to get worse or better, which ever way one chooses to say be cause women have the annoying habit of living longer than men. We had just about decided that women must have elected Mark Hatfield, because he is young and looks like a movie star, until this morning we ran down the list of figures on states which have mone potential women voters than men and discovered that Oregon isn't one of them. This state is one which still has more men of voting age. than women, 17,736. Only 15 states in the union are in this list. - The anonymous writer pointed out that women have been voting since 1920, have come a long way but that 1958 still finds men enthroned and wielding the political scepter. The road to political equality is cluttered with left over prejudices, outmoded customs and traditions. An example of this is the idea that women's interests are, or should be, confined to health, education, morality and delinquency, and that taxes, foreign affairs, agriculture and labor problems should be left to the men. A little bitter ly, she (it must have been a woman writing) said "because of this male notion, political hush puppies are still being tossed to women just enough to keep them quiet while they stuff envelopes and knock on doors to get out the vote." . And while we're on the subject of voters and figures, why is it this country lags so far behind in the percentage of eligible voters who do go to the polls? Tuesday only 69.2 per cent of the voters in Jackson county cast their votes.'- In such countries as Australia, New Zealand, " Italy and many more, the vote runs almost 100 per cent. . Reporters writing from London said that when Queen Elizabeth opened the fourth session of the 285th Parliament in Britain, it was a scene of "dazzling brilliance." Peter Lyne, Christian Science Monitor reporter, said he was an old hand at ceremonial functions such as coronations and royal weddings and accustomed to seeing "diamonds in the mass," but had never before witnessed such a spectacle. Why? Because for the first time the ceremony was televised and the 200 peeresses who attended were estimated to have worn 50,000 diamonds in tiaras, necklaces, brooches, brace lets and earrings. After all, weren't millions of people watch ing? The peeresses are seated separately from, their hus bands, who also presented a colorful picture with their scarlet robes, ermine capes and coronets. Queen Elizabeth, wearing magnificent royal jewels, ad dressed the assemblage, saying "Peoples in other lands will ment. Outwardly they will see state; but in their hearts they will surely respond to the spirit of hope and purpose which inspires our parliamentary tradition. In this spirit I pray that the blessing of Almighty God may rest upon your counsels." Some believed that good will come from permitting people around the world to see this ceremony, said to be little changed from the day of the first Queen Elizabeth. One foreign observer said this was "a fine strike for Western democracy-" " ' ' The Manchester Guardian took another tone. As a spectacle," reported the Guardian, "it was outstanding; as politics or government, it was irrelevant. The Imperial State Crown; the Cap of Maintenance, the Sword of State, the Heralds, the Lord Great Chamberlains and Earl Marshals, make up a beautiful charade, but if all were swept away tomorrow it would make not the slightest difference to the country's government. Not that they need be swept away; they are harmless relics, harmless, that is, so long as nobody misfckes them for anything significant. "The fear of timid publicists beforeUhe broadcast was that the words put into the Queen's mouth might give ad vantage to the party in power. The fear after the broadcast may perhaps be a related but different one; that .too many people may regard the theatrical trappings of the occasion as more important than Parliament itself. Abroad, of course, Britain's reputation as an old curiosity shop will be en hanced, and our tourist earnings may benefit; at home, any nno rhn was inclined to take refuge in the myth of an England great and glorious, the more." Newest Invention-The miracle paint industry, full of surprises lately, has come up with the ultimate, a paint which keens the lawn green. Lawn tint is a green turf color con centrate which, on mixing parts a natural green color to Three SOC Students Attend Conference Ashland - "Serve to Learn" was the theme of the annual conference of Region II of the Association of College Unions at Corvallis recently.

Of Child Irregular - Milwaukee IUPD A baby takes turns developing first one side of his body, then the other, reports the Better Vis ion institute. The baby will use his right hand, right foot and right eye in all his movements. Then he will switch to. the left side of his body for a few days or a week, the Institute said. It is normal for the eye not in use to go off at an angle. But the infant should learn to use both eyes together by three months or so, the Insti tute said. If he doesn't, the child may be cross-eyed, and a vision specialist should be consulted. - Quick Johnny Cake This recipe makes a quick hot corn meal johnny cake to delight all comers.
