TheHiroshima Exaibit offers us aglimpse of what the future mustsurely be unless the nuclear armsrace is halted . . . The politicalrights wer cherish, the freedomwe wash to extend, cannot be fur-thered by nuclear warfare: theycan only persih in the holocaust...

"Far from betokening despair,our sponsorship of this exhibitrepresents an act of faith faithin the reason, the courage, thecompassion of the men and wom-en of this country, as of all man-kind . . . It is our belief that.h,,e who see this exhibit willtake fresh thought on its impli-cations and, turning from vio-

lence, will determine, in thewords of the Memorial Cenotaphin Hiroshima, that "the errorshall not be repeated."

Dr. Gilkey and the OSU Art Depart,.rnent, kidder Hall is the temporaryworkshop and classroom of Jun-ichiroSekino, an internationally recognizedJapanese printmaker. 1krany of Mr.Sekino's works are in sueh museums asthe Chicago Art Institute, The NewYork Modern Art Museum, The BostonMuseum of Fine Arts, The Brooklyn MU-scum, The Seattle Art Museum, The Na-tional Modern Art Museum in Toyko,The Oxford University Gallery in Eng-land, and many others too numerous tomention here. Mr. Sekino's many workshave also been exhibited in Brazil, WestGermany, France, Canada, England,America, Italy, Yugoslavia, Spain andJapan.

This is Mr. Sekino's second visit to theUnited States. He was here in 1958 as aguest lecturer at the University ofWashington. His present stay in theUnited States is part of the Internation-al Relations Education program in thefine arts. According to Dr. Gilkey, "Thissort of exchange has great validity andvalue at a university."

An exchange of this sort is mutually

mportantbeneficial to the University and thevisitor. Mr. Sekine, while teaching stu-dents about printmaking (and Japan-ese culture) is, in turn, learning first-hand about our art and culture. In thincase, OSU is receiving a side benefit. Anexhibit of Mr. Sekino's work will beshown in the new MU art gallery fromFebruary 24, to March 15. A receptionwill be held for him there on Sunday,Feb. 24, at 3 p.m.

Au exchange of this sort is a good signthat OSU is "growing up" culturally.Oregn State College has long been anexcellent scientific and technical insti-tution, but Oregon State University . . .

well, the name "university" implies abroader range of interests than a college.We have long had an excellent curricu-lum offered in the sciences, in agricul-ture, in engineering, and in other fieldssuch as business and tecnology ; butappreciation of the fine arts has beensomewhat lacking.

Now that we are a university, weshould broaden our interests as an insti-tution to include the aestetic as well asthe constructive arta. Having suchpeople as Mr. Sekino here on our cam-pus, and such men as Dr. Gilkey work-ing to bring more fine arts to OSU areexamples of how we are earning thename "university."

Undergraduates regularly enrolled incolleges and universities under the ju-risdiction of the OSSHE are eligible toparticipate. Past academic perform-ance will be a significant factor in sel-ection. Personal qualifications as reli-ability, tolerance, and adaptability, spe-cifically the ability to live amicablywith others in a new environment willalso be considered.

Estimated basic cost per student is$2050. This includes $300 tuition, $150surcharge, $575 for round trip air trans-portation, $950 room and board, and $75books. Overall costs for the year shouldnot exceed $2600. Except for the trans-portation then, cost would be about thesame as the three terms at OregonState.

Students will use facilities at theUniversity of Pavaia. Pavia is a cityin Northern Italy near Milan. For thefirst year students will probably live ina hotel. After the program gets startedit is hoped that they will be able to livewith Italain families.

Courses offered will be in humani-ties and social science. Included will beItalian language, literature and his -tory; studies of the governments of Ger-many, France and Italy; contemporaryEuropean economic problems; philoso-phy and other studies of historical andpolitical problems in Europe. Full aca-demic credit will be awarded all stu-dents.

There is no language prerequisite butstudents without any Italian trainingwill be required to take a crash pro-gram offered in Italy during the first

Program director, Dr. Carbone andhis wife will be available at all timesfor consultation with students in Italy.A considerable degree of individual lib-erty will be granted each student. Eachgroup will elect a president and otherofficers to carry out the activities andto confer with staff members on admin-istrative problems.

Students participating in the pro -gram are voluntarily assuming a def-inite responsibility for representingtheir university or college, state andcountry.

Applications will be accepted untilApril 15 for the academic year begin-ning this September. Dr. Gilkey saidthat applications will soon be availableon this campus. All applicants must ap-ply for the full three terms.

Especially in socialscience classes, students see the captionon the board, reading: PROSPECTSFOR MANKIND, International Week,plus (this daisy drawing). Is the daisythe chosen symbol?

The program brochure this year hasa yellow cover. In comparison to the redcover of revolution last year, this yel-low color connotes an evident cynicism.Looking inside, the reason for yellow be-come apparent. "Population Explo-sion," "World War Ill" "Birth Control,""Religion as a Moral Code," "Science ofHumans," Does Y-Round Table lookfor the daisy to grow in the soil ofomnipotent topics like these?

pwith the emphasis lost ;Liter Feb. 23,111962. Another criticism is the crowd-listening-to simulated-seminar-type ofpresentation. It seems ineffective topromote ideas in a large group with lit-tle or no response.

There are better objectives although.The International Week Comenittee canproduce an atmosphere of awarenesswhich ranks above: 1. most big- namersfreighted in by the administration; 2.the senate reorganized. It also offers en-tertainment and the meeting of Foreignand American students on Thursday,Feb. 21. These kinds of relationships arevaluable although a somewhat daisy-like dream, the individual relationshipmay in the end mean the most. And ofcourse the "Liberal Exchange of Ideas"can be promoted. Perhaps this younggroup of idealists can add new meaningto this old line in International Week.

The Y-Round Table may have some-thing next week. The daisy may be theprospect for mankind. It's a good out-look. It's good program. We hope it'swell attended and students walk awaywith something in their heads.

Senate Committee MakesCigarette Tax Concession

SALEM (API Senate mem-bers of a conference conunitteemade a major concession on cig-arette taxes Thursday night, andhopes rose again for a tax com-promise that could leod to ad-journment.

But there was no certainty thisconcession would hold up. andthere was still disagreement onseveral major points betweenHouse and Senate members of thecommittee.

Hopes for agreement have risenand fallen since the first confer-ence committee was appointedalmost a week ago.

Sen. Glen Stadler. D-Eugeiie,said he thought the Senate mightpass a cigarette tax if it had a"one-shot witholding tax measurein reserve in case the cigarettetax were referred. (The witholdinmeasure would require employersto remit their witholding taxesmonthly instead of quarterly. Itwould bring in about the same asthe cigarette tax $13 million.)

Sen. Boyd Overhulse. D-Madras,the chairman of the Senate TaxCommittee and a member or thefirst conference committee. hadtaken a poll earlier that showedSenators were 1S-12 against thecigarette tax. The House passedthe cigarette tax 39-21.

This is the second committee totry to reach a compromise thatboth Houses might accept, in theeffort to raise the extimatedmillion of new taxes needed over

I the next two years.

The house passed an incometax increase with a flat tax of oneper cent on all income plus agraduated tax rate; and a cig-arette tax bill. The Senate didn'taccept either of these ideas, sothe conference committee was ap-pointed.

The first committee wound upin deadlock Tuesday night aftermeeting four days. It had ap-peared near agreement Sundaynight, but Rep. Victor Atiyeh

RBeaverton, retreated to a firmstand for a cigarette tax and aone per cent lax on all income.

The four members of the secondcommittee all are from LaneCounty. They arc Stadler; Sen.Donald Husband, II-Eugene Rep.Richard Eymann, D-Marcola, thechairman of the House Tax Com-mittee: and Rep. F. F. Montgom.cry. R-Eugene. the House minor-ity leader.

Both House and Senate con-ferees advanced plans Thursdaynight that would raise from $4to $48 million from the incometax and 512 to $14 million from acigarette tax. with the witholdingmeasure in reserve.

The major differences were inthe income tax plans. Montgom-ery held fast to the net receipts(flat tax) idea. But Eymann pro-posed modifications that he calleda "progressive receipts" tax. Hewould allow $1,000 deducted fromthis feature and would roake it

lei per cent for incomes over$16,000.

Ro al Highland Regiment

Black Watch to Perform at Coliseum Tomorrow NightThe Black Watch, the Royal

Highland Regiment, 100 mem-bers of which will perform inthe Oregon

State University Col-

iseum onThursday on their sec-

ond tour of North America un-

der the auspices of Saul Hurok,has had an historic career dat-

ing back to the early 18th cen-

tury.

In those days, no roads pene-traded the rugged highlands of

Scotland. Each glen had itsfierce fighting men, owing al-legiance to some chieftain;some of the MacDonalds couldraise 500 men overnight and the

Stewarts could summon up-wards of a thousand armed andready to fight anybody or any-thing.

In 1724, king George I ap-poted a new commander-in-

in Scotland, an Irish-no, General George Wade, and

1725 six companies were form-ed, three large and three small,cambering about 500 men.

They were stationed in smallgroups throughout the High-lands, acting as a police forcepreventing clan fights and;L:7 against the government.

They became known as theBlack Watch because of the latetours that they kept in keepinga vigil over the land and be-cause of the dark tartans theywore, in contrast to the bril-liant red uniforms of GeneralWade's regular soldiers.

Throughout the next coupleel centuries, the unit distin-guisbeei it se I f at battlesthroughout the world, receivingmany decorations from great-LI and impressed governments.The program that will be pre -

sented will feature the music,pipes and drums and victorydances which are still a partcf the co! -ru! and spectaculartradition of the senior highlandregiment of the British Army.

In Birmingham, Ala., 2,000trained young people are fight-ing for their rights. They wantthem fiercely and all the time."What's the use of an educa-tion if a person can't get achance to use it?" Chalmersasked.

Many southern state commun-ities are in the process of train-ing young people to fight forcivil rights. Recently thirty stu-dents from Stanford Universitywent to Jackson, Miss., to trainfor the mass required to pro-duce acceleration which yieldsforce.

Force equals mass times ac-celeration is an old formula that4ccomplishes many things ifapplied with guts and brains,Chalmers added to his talk.

Force is acquired throughpeople in the political powerstructure; the press which helpsaccelerate the mass; churcheswhich endure an enforcing ac-celeration; education; business-men who make an econom-ical choice to fight or gain prof-its; women) and voluntary or-ganizations.

These seven groups can moveinto a community and accom-plish many things, but gutsand brains are necessary andmust be present to fight, Chal-mers emphasized.

Book Drive to Aid Negro College;Y Round Table Formulates Plans

A massive drive to provide atleast 10.000 books for Miles Col-lege in Birmingham. Ma.. isgetting underway on the OregonState campus. Sponsored bythe YM-YWCA Round Table. thedrive will he held from Jan. 20through Feb. 2 of next term,according to Dennis Crawford.executive secretary of the or-ganization.

The plight of the library-poorNegro college was brought tothe attention of the Y-RoundTable by an article in TimeMagazine on Nov. 8. Miles wasdescribed as a shabby school,lacking accreditation. with 810students that can barely swingthe $4220 tuition.

At the time of the article, theschool was surrounded by"gun-toting guards" protectingnot just the plant itself, but the-pride of Birmingham Neg-roes." It is the only four-yearcollege available to the major-ity of the 2.000 students whograduate each year from the17 Negro high schools in thearea. Miles also produces 60 pervent of Birmingham's ....gmschoolteachers.

Support of the college hasbeen primarily obtained fromthe Christian Methodist Episco-pal Church. the Negro denomi-nation that founded the school.However, this year the church

think of what 10,000 studentsand faculty members at OregonState could do for us here atMiles College in the way ofbooks.

Your idea of collection ofbooks is not only plausible butvery desirable and would an-swer a great need here at theCollege. We need all kinds ofbooks, but particularly in theareas of the natural sciences(biology, chemistry, zoology,histology and the earth sci-ences), speech, English and lin-guistics.

Mixed Culture

In America,

Say StudentsBy GRACE BERGER

ReporterAmerica is a large country

with great natural beauty andvery friendly people, but haslittle culture that is character-istically its own, stated two for-eign science teachers who arepresently studying at OregonState University.

"Culture in America is foundprimarily in the museums," Lu-igi Navacchia of Italy explain-ed. "We have tried to find typi-cally American articles in thestores to take back to our coun-tries with us. but all we canfind are articles that say 'madein Japan.' "

Boqumet Habuz of Polandechoed this feeling. "Your gov-ernment buildings in Washing-ton D.C. are copies of Greekand Roman architecture insteadof being really American in de-sign," he observed. Regardingthe skyscrapers they had seenin Chicago, he commented thatthey were impressive buildingsbut that he would not want tolive there.

"Our hobby is to learn Amer-ican slang." remarked Habuzjokingly. Comments such as"See you later, alligator,"which the American studentsuse, have proved very confus-ing. To be chosen for the pro-gram of study in the UnitedStates, the teachers must beable to understand basic Eng-lish. but idioms and slang puz-zle them still, both men said.

'I had learned the words 'putoff.' stated Navacchia, "buthad never heard them used inthe sense. 'Don't put off untiltomorrow what you can do to-day.' "

High schools in America aredifferent in some ways fromthose in Europe, both menagreed. In Poland and Italy thehigh schools in which both mentaught were designed to pre-pare students for the universi-ty. Other students attend tech-nical engineering or agricultur-al schools. Students preparingfor the university take eight ornine subjects at a time and at-tend school six days a week,Navacchia explained. In bothPoland and Italy boys and girlsattend the same schools, butthere is a different kind offriendship between Americanboys and girls than in their owncountries, both men observed.

"Football games are very pic-turesque," commented Habuz."With the band playing, thecrowd screaming and the girlsdancing. it is very interestingto watch." They added thatthey must bring luck becauseevery game they have attend.ed this year has been won byOregon State.

"We want to thank all thepeople who have been so friend-ly to us." both men empha-sized. Navacchia held in hishand an invitation he had justreceived from a I a mil y.Friends In Corvallis loaned theteachers bicycles and radios,took them hunting and fishing,invited them to their homes tovisit and helped them in manyother ways. When they returnto their home countries, bothmen said that they will remem-ber the friendliness of theAmerican people they havemet.
