110 Student
Activities
With 110 student organizations
already approved by the Office of
Student Affairs earlier this week,
University officials estimate that
by the end of the year the final
number of recognized organiza-
tions will equal last year's record
of more than 150.
They pointed out that a few or-
ganizations, inactive this semester,
will probably be approved next se-
mester. In addition, they predicted
that several new groups will be or-
ganized for the first time this year.
LAST YEAR 36 new groups were
approved by the OSA. Of these, 11
were professional clubs, six politi-
cal, five service, four sectional
and four honorary.
To secure official recognition,
organizations must submit cop-
ies of their constitutions to the
Student Affairs Committee and
have eligibility lists of all offi-
cers and standing committee
chairmen filed with the OSA.
This year's list of approved
groups is again dominated by 38
clubs and undergraduate societies.
Running a distant second are the
16 representative groups, such as
the Student Legislature, Associa-
tion of Independent Men and In-
ter-fraternity Council.

LITTLE 'RED' SCHOOLHOUSE:
Magruder Says Houston
Book Ban'Unfortunate'

(.i

HOUSTON, Tex.-(/P)-Author
Frank Magruder said yesterday
the Houston school board's action
banning his "American Govern-
ment" civics textbook is an "un-
fortunate and unique experience to
me."
The school board banned the
book from further use in Hous-
ton's six senior high schools after
finding an objectionable para-
graph in the 1947 revised edition.
* * *
THE PARAGRAPH on capital-
ism described public free educe-
tion as an example of Commu-
nism.
In a telephone interview with
the Houston Chronicle from his
Corvallis, Ore., home yesterday,
Magruder said the paragraph
was intended merely as a philo-
sophic definition of Communism
and Socialism."
"I am not interested in Com-
munism, know no Communists
and have never voted for Social-
ism or Communism," he said. "All
of my books are opposed to revo-
lution. I even think our own rev-
olution never accomplished very
much."
* * *
"NONE OF THE editions of my
book have been banned before. The

FRIED SCALLOPS

lit

® FULL LUNCHEONS
AND DINNERS
* TAKE-OUTS

edition does not contain the para-
graph the Houston board objected
to because my publisher and I de-
cided it might be misleading if
taken out of context."
. Only one member of the board
voted against the ban. Mrs.
Olon Rogers said she thought
the board should not take action
before at least reading the en-
tire chapter in which the para-
graph was found.
She admitted yesterday she had
not had time to read the text.
Texas School
Board Action
'W T
Said Unwise
The citing of "socialistiti and
even communistic trends" in
American life by a civics text,
which resulted in its banning from
Houston high schools, was brand-
ed as "unwise" yesterday by Dean
James B. Edmonson of the school
of education.
The book might better have
said that the "services of the
state" are being enlarged and ex-
tended, Dean Edmonson con-
tinued.
* * *
PROF. O. W. Stevenson, of the
School of Education, declared that
there was some truth in the text's
statements. "Such ideas as the
more equal distribution of wealth
and federal aid to education
demonstrate this truth," he said
"But just because a writer
says this, does not make him a
communist or a socialist," he
added.
It seemed "absurd" to Steven-
son that "a thinking board of
education would ban a book for
telling the truth."
THE TEXT, written by a re-
tired Oregon State history pro-
fessor, Dr. FrankhMagruder, is
well known and has enjoyed a
good reputation, according to
Dean Edmonson.
He said that the book is not
used in the classrooms at Univer-
.sity high school.
Bus Ad Graduates
Win Scholarships
Three graduate students in the
School of Business Administration
have been awarded scholarships,
Prof. Russell A, Stevenson, Dean
of the School, announced yester-
day.
John Blankenship and Robert T.
Richardson will receive $100 each
for the fall semester, while Eliza-
beth Swift will receive a scholar-
ship covering the semester fee.
