Gracious Words
rjHIE DAY after elections the Editor of the Emerald was
stopped by a student on the campus and congratulated on
the passing of the ,$5 perpetual fee' amendment, the student
saying that without the Emerald’s support it would have been
impossible to accomplish such a beneficial action. The Editor,
being human, accepted the compliment gracefully, both for
the daily and for himself, but he could not help feeling just a
trifle awkward while the sweet words fell upon his hungry
ears.
The reason he felt just a little foolish is simple. He knew
way back in the far recesses of his mind, where sits the Court
of Justice and where the bailiff has orders to bar the door
against the Ego, that the Judge was frowning all the time
whilst the student was saying his graceful words and all the
time whilst the Editor was modestly bowing thanks. After
a congratulatory handshake and a parting between the student
and the Editor, the Judge delivered sentence, to wit: “That
justice must be done, and imprisonment in the Cell of the Guilty
Conscience must be served, until the sin has been expiated.”
To be serious, the Editor wishes to express for the student
body of the University and for himself appreciation to Randall
Jones, Associated Student president, for the untiring, unselfish
and sincere work which has marked his participation in a far
visioned plan.
It was Randall who first proposed the idea and who worked
in the face of innumerable obstacles before he even gained
backing for the proposal, which he knew, if adopted would
mean so much to Oregon in the years to come.
When students crowd the tiers in the new pavilion, cheer
ing the Oregon basketball varsity or. to victory, they will also
be cheering for Randall, because it will have been he who made
that victory possible. When the Homecoming thousands sur
round i he gridiron, sitting comfortably in the big grandstand,
eagerly leaning forward as the two elevens fight for yardage,
it will have been Randall who was chiefly responsible for the
adequate provision for the spectators. When the students enjoy
the great benefits of the Student Union, and it has become a
reality some three vq>irs hence, instead of remaining but a far
off dream, it will have been Randall who transmuted that filmy
cloud into brick and mortar. „
The attainment of this one plan ranks as high or higher
than the achievements of any previous administration. As
building after building rises, with foundations resting firmly on
the solidity of this plan, they will be permanent monuments to
the vision of Randall Jones.
In closing, the Editor cannot refrain from telling who the
student was that stopped him on the campus the day after
elections. The student who stopped the Editor and so gener
ously attributed the attainment of the building fee plan to the
Emerald, was none other than Randall himself.
The University Accepts
JT IIAS just been learned that C. O. Peterson, proprietor of
the Eugene Excelsior company, and former mayor of Eugene,
has given to the University a strip of land between 30 and 40
feet long and two feet wide along theh south side of the mill
race. Mr. Peterson is owner of the mill race right-of-way, and
gave the land so tha* the curve could be taken out of the north
edge of the platform when it is extended. This gift comes as
a welcome addition to that of Frank L. Chambers, who has
donated the piece of ground now occupied by the bleacher seats
and extending some distance along the south bank of the race.
And the University is happy to accept the gift in the spirit of
the girer.

Communications |
Letters to the EMERALD from stu

worded concisely. If it is desired, the
writer's name will be kept out of
print. It must be understood that the
editor reserves the right to reject
communications.
CRITIC OF COMMUNICATIONS
HIMSELF CONTRIBUTES
Dear Editor:
In view of the fact that economy
seems to he the best bet around
the campus, I would like to ven
ture a suggestion.
Since news on the campus is so
scarce that the Emerald staff must
resort to a daily “wind jamming”,
contest of three or four columns to
fill the paper, why not make the
Emerald a tri-weekly and cut out
the communications column. It
costs money to print that stuff, yet
who can imagine that it is worth
even the time it takes to read it.
The column in guestion might be
considered good filler in a high
school paper, but is certainly dis
gusting in a University daily. Good
old “boiler plate” does not cost
as much and is at least as interest
ing reading.
