J. E. NAIL SENDS PAPERS
Emerald Receives French Publications
From Former Students
A copy each of The Stars and Stripes
The Viola and La Petite Gironde
have just been received at the Emerald
office from J. E. Nail, ex ’19, who is
in Bordeaux, France, attftiding the
University of Bordeaux. Nail is a
second lieutenant in the ordnance de
partment. lie is a member of Alpha
Tau Omega fraternity. He majored
in chemistry and did some work in
journalism while at Oregon.
In a letter to The Emerald he says:
‘ ‘ Here are some samples for your his
tory collection. You aro of ijourse
familiar with the Stars and Stripes,
the official newspaper of the A. E.
F. The Viola is a weekly published
by the American students, about 300
in number, at the University of Bor
deaux. Some of the characteristic sido
issues of American college life have
made their appearance. Athletics,
glee clubs and publications are among
the activities. The third sample copy
shows you how we get our daily news
served up to us here in Bordeaux. The
Petite Gironde issues this special edi
tion daily, with the leading stories in
English on the front page, and w?th
the less important items and announce-J
meats in French on the back.
“ There is a serious paper shortage;
in Europe and each publication is
limited in its supply in accordance I
with its circulation. Even the leading
dailies of Paris are very meager spec
imens now. One very noticeable thing
about all French publications is the
scarcity of advertising matter.
“Sometime, along in the next gen
eration 1 expect to get out of the
army and come back.’’
