Two fraternity chapters are planning the reunions in honor of their 50 years on the Oregon campus and one class is holding a five-year reunion. Alpha Tau Omega and Sig ma Chi fraternities, both of which were chartered on the university compus in 1910, will celebrate the occasions with banquets and returning charter members.

Charter members will hold a dinner on Oct. 12, and on Friday night will join all returning members of the chapter for a banquet. Some 350 members are ex pected to return for the Sigma Chi reunion. This chapter was founded at Oregon in Novem ber, 1910, the second frater nity on the campus. The class of 1955, the first to hold a five-year reunion, plans a special post-game re ception. Presiding as master of ceremonies wil be 'Jim Light, Eugene. Don Roten toerg, permanent president of the class, will be unable to attend. Medford Tribune SECTION B MEDFORD, OREGON, TUESDAY, OCTOBER 4, 1960 PAGES 1 fi 8 West Berlin Said Corrupting East Germans With Music Fad Berlln-(UPD-One reason the Communists want to liquidate free West Berlin, in the opin ion of many observers, is to do away with what they call the "corrupting" influences of movies, cigarettes, and songs from across the border. "They've told us we won't be able much longer to cross over and see western movies and smoke western cigar ettes," a 21-year-old worker told a UPI reporter in East Berlin recently. As far as song goes, the lowly portable radio is a trai tor within the gates. Usually 'Decadent' Sounds It's hard to walk a block in East Berlin at night with out meeting a teen-ager wired for sound. The sounds are usually "decadent" western music from West Berlin sta tions. "Treacherous recor dings from the Golden West," the Communist Party newspaper "Neues Deutschland" calls them. East Berlin has only a few movies and these are crowd ed. Its few dance halls are sold out days in advance. So the youngsters stroll the streets aimlessly with port able radios tucked under their arms, or gather in small groups to tune in their fav- Quotes From the News BY UNITED PRESS INTERNATIONAL New York Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev, on United Nations "failure" to speedily effect a disarmament agree ment: "You arc unfortunately compelling us to build more rockets.

Some of the youth are ob viously hoodlums, others are students or workers who sim ply have nothing else to do in the evenings. Several months ago in Karl-Marx-Stadt (formerly Chem nitz), a "People's Policeman" chided a group of boys for sitting in a park listening to western music. One word led to another, and eventually to a riot in which park lights were brok en, glass strewn in front of police cars, and 23 youths ar rested. A similar incident occurred this week when a group de scribed as "rowdies" taunted police at a Dresden festival. Things are so serious that the "Neues Deutschland" this week devoted a long story to a fictional teen-ager named Bodo, who was pictured as a good tvorker during the day, but given to evil companions, motorcycles and portable ra dios after dark. Led to Errors His idling led him to such errors as "taking the freedom to run on about the lack of free speech among us," the newspaper said. His fellow workers had to decide "whether to educate him or kick him out," it said. "The problem was that he might either go to another job, thus shifting our respon sibility to the workers there, or might go to the West, and being directly under danger ous influence might even join the NATO Army," it said. Bodo's case was left open and the newspaper called for comments from readers. The Family Council Editor's Note: The Family Council consists of a Judge, a psychia trist, three clercynien, three editors and a women's editor. Each article Is a summary of an actual cose history. The Council reports on problems that have been dealt with by responsible acenciea and counselors. . Mrs. J. R. - Marian is too ambitious for her own good. Marian R, I have always resented being poor. Mrs. J. R. - I am the mother of five wonderful children. My problem involves in my eldest daughter, Marian, who I feel is just too ambitious for her own good. Marian is 20 and will be graduated from college next year. She has always been an excellent student. I had hoped she would be a teacher, which I consider a fine career for a woman. Instead, Marian has chosen to major in economics and wants to go into business. She says she wants to make a million dollars. My husband is a working man, ' but we have always been happy with the little we have. I don't know where she gets such ideas. She is already working part time in a business office and I feel she is losing her femininity. Marian P. ' Mv mnthpr! like all of them, I guess, is concerned about my getting married, ui course i want io marry and have a family some day. But i want to suc ceed first. Although Mother says we have alwavs been hannv with what we have, I have always resented being- poor, i HKe beautiful, expensive things and attractive surroundings. Maybe some girls would try to set their caps for a rich ma.i, but I have little oppor tunity to meet them. So I'll have to make my money for myself. Mnthor avs I'm Iosinz my femininity because I have no intorpst in clotnes or in aai- inn much. But that's iust be cause I'm so busy now. After I have worked for a few years, I'll be able to dress .nrl an nilt. Tha Council - Marian Is an unusual girl, but we do not think sne is necessarily on the wrong track. Few girls of her age are able to make such a simple, clear-cut statement of ambi tion and show the willingness to work to achieve them for themselves. The dream of making a million may be a bit up in the air, but as long as Mlirian isn't just sitting back and thinking about it, we feel there is little harm in holding it up as an ideal. In order to achieve a dif ficult goal, a woman may have to give up some of the characteristics commonly as sociated with femininity. She must learn to obey her mind rather than her emotions. She must become deeply in dependent and give up some of her sensitivity. We do not believe, how ever, that this calls for a to tal sacrifice of womanly at tributes. Many men admire such women and some marry them. Mainly, it depends upon how the woman herself feels about men and marriage. In any case, we do not feel that : wholesome ' ambition, backed by a realistic under standing of what it takes to achieve a goal, should be dis couraged in anyone (Copyright 1960, General Fea tures Corp.)

F. Hutton and Co. By taking his tax loss ahead of the pack, he has a chance of realizing a price for a "worry" stock that will be above the lows for the year, Hutton advises.
