W. Blair 814 WILLAMETTE | EMILY VEAZIE ATTENDS I COLLEGE IN BORDEAUX Letters Tell Experiences of Former Student “How is Emily Veazie getting along in France?” This question, asked frequently by her numerous friends on the campus, is answered by letters received from Jier re cently. Miss Veazie, who was a graduate in English literature in 1923, was especially prominent on the campus on account of her splen did scholastic record. During her senior year she won a foreign schol arship and she is now studying at a college in Bordeaux, specializing in French literature. "I’ve met some of the professors, and they are as nice as can be,” she writes. “Our adviser (there is another American girl here) told us not to spend much time on books—• that we would learn more from the people! Can vau imagine a profes sor saying that? And no one cares whether you go to classes or not, and if you pass the exam all right without going to any, why go?” They don’t have any college sports here, the different ‘colleges’ are in different buildings around the city, with nothing resembling a campus, and each is quite inde pendent of the others.” On her way to France, Miss Vea zie stopped in England, and went through Belgium. The latter part of last September she sailed from New York for England, where she spent two weeks touring the cathed ral towns and visiting the colleges. Then she went through BeVjium and at last to Paris, where, with another American college girl, she spent her time going to the opera, sight-seeing, and purchasing Paris PATRONIZE EMERALD ADVERTISERS HARD TIME MASQUERADE SKATING PARTY —Tonight— Friday— SKATING 2:30 and 7:30 PRICE’S January Shoe Clearance Closes Saturday Night January 31 Only four more days to cash in on this remarkable shoe sale.
