Barring Jupiter’s annual practical joke and the loss of the game, Homecoming was a success. The grads came back in far greater numbers than anyone had dared hope for; further more they appeared to enjoy themselves notwithstanding the umbrellas and the score hoard. Now the grads are gone and the students are attempting to catch up with their studies. According to common custom the proper thing now is for the students to forget the grad's for one year and for the grads to forget the students. After a year’s separation there will come another Homecoming and everyone will again play around in the rain. In the mean time, if precedent is followed, the grads will read in the various newspapers of the multitudinous activities. Perhaps they will receive an assessment in the gift campaign; or possibly they will be approached for a contribution for the Fine Arts building. At any rate their contacts will be distant; and few will take part in actual alumni activities. There will be exceptions. For instance, the Emerajd wagers dollars to doughnuts that before three weeks have passed vari ous members of the alumni will have blown the lid off the ath letic situation. Fair enough that they should. Dollars to doughnuts the students do likewise. It is the right of every properly informed member of the University family to express his opinions. But what a pity it is that active students and alumni can not work together when infinitely greater results might be gained if affairs were handled by student-alumni cooperation. Witness the recent blow-off in the presidential situation, when the students said one thing, the alumni of Portland an other, while the mass of alumni said nothing at all. Why not work together in order that results and not word fests might be achieved? As matters now stand the greater mass of alumni have no direct contact with the University; and it is only in Portland where the alumni act in a body with any semblance of regular ity. Small wonder then that when any matter pertaining to University affairs comes up for discussion, the reverberations therefrom sound like a dozen buzz saws eating through as many crowbars. A step in the right direction was made last week end when a visiting committee composed of one regent-alumnus, one fac ulty-alumnus and three alumni not connected with the Univer sity was sanctioned by the alumni council. The function of this committee will be to meet once a year and to make constructive suggestions for the betterment of University affairs. This will make an official contact for the alumni, but meeting only once a year, its value as an active link will be limited. This committee will probably lead to the establishment of .a permanent field secretary whose duty will be to cement this needed union between the alumni and students. As there appears to be little likelihood of obtaining this sec retary in the near future, any means, makeshift or otherwise, to hold the University family together will merit the most care ful consideration. For the University’s sake, let's work to gether. <3*-*-r Communications <*--<> (Editor's note: The Emerald is not printing any of the communica tions received yesterday pertaining to seating arrangements in Satur day’s game. As long as both sides have had their say there appears to be no advantage in carrying the controversy any further.) To the Editor: Now that the University has fur nWhed us with a brand now dispen sary, sonic of us are still dissatis fied. While we sit in the waiting room anticipating a red hot blast of spray up our noses and down our throats we do not feel much like studying, not are we content to sit idle. There are some old battered magazines at the dispensary, but they are so poor that we feel offend ed when we are forced to read them. With a plea for bigger and better magazines in the waiting room, I hereby petition everybody to bring around the mogazincs they would ordinarily throw away.

This nifty model that has just arrived from Her man’s Smart Shop for Men will go to the poorest boy in the Fiji house, a boy who has been com pelled to go around in the same suit for two months, shivering in the cold winter blasts and downpour of rain. It is even rumored that he had to borrow a pair of socks from his brother Fred. Because of our deep sym pathy for the plight of the poor lad, we give him this handsome bit of apparel, and as it is cut in tlie latest firemen’s style, we are assured that he will look hot.
