Seers, Questors Of Intellect Rate High on Emerald Miller, Editor, Comments On Achievements Of Year An entire year and not a single honest-to-goodness fight. This is the unsurpassed record of the Ore Edward Miller gon waiiy emer ald during the past year. The B. O. T. C. boys were on the verge of taking up their rifles and sur rounding the place after the appearance of an editorial on De cember 4, but at the crucial mom ent Old Saint Nick came along and at the end of Christmas v a ca tion, all tnougnts or vengeance naa disappeared. Some may say no fights mean a mark of timidity on the part of the paper, ■while others declare that it is a mark of good sense—Edward Miller, the editor, hints that, per sonally, it has saved him. a great deal of trouble. Financially, the Emerald has had a very successful year, in the opinion of Frank Log gan, manager. The staff all through the year has been exceptionally dependable, loyal ana enter prising, the editor said. “In some ways I am sorry we have not had a few fights this year, because the Emerald regimes are remembered1 by their fights and nothing else,” the editor said. “However, the Seven Seers, under the diree Frank Loggan tion of Phillipa Sherman, has been the Emerald’s contribution this year. Wo started out the year with the ambition to provide#a laugh for every reader, every morning, aeiordingly the Seven Seers were invented, a«d they have, I believe, filled the function reasonably well. The Seers also have provided a splendid means for the -members of the editorial staff to get even with their enemies.” One of the outstanding things this year which was accomplished through the direction of the Emer ald was the distribution and compil ing of more than 1,400 question naires filled out by students on University affairs. The results of the questionnaires were received with favor by the faculty and stu dents. The student report on intellectual activity of the University is another achievement which has been accomp lished under the Emerald’s direc tions. W. A. A. Sees Year Of Transition Under Retiring Officers The past year has witnessed a new period in women’s athletics at the University under Janet Wood, president of W. A. A., or, rather it would be more accurate to say that the year has been one of tran sition. At the end of last spring term the girls volun tarily voted to supplant the old order of doughnut sports of competi Janet Wood tion between the houses with color teams, placing sports on a volun tary basis. This year class competitions were the big factor, with those girls who failed to place on first, second, third, fourth, or other class teams, forming the color squads. Under the new system the awarding of points for athletic achievement was extended to the color teams and a larger number of points was award ed for second, third, and other teams. The first fall sport to receive rec ognition this year was volley ball, and judging by the number of girls that came out each evening to play the ball back and forth across the high net, the return to sports was more than welcome. The sophomores took the final honors in volley ball. During the winter term basket ball and swimming occupied the wo men’s sporting instinct. The junior class secured the coveted rung in the hoop event and the seniors proved themselves to be the best amphibians. As always, the greatest array of sport activities comes during the spring term—hockey, tennis, base ball, archery, canoeing, horseback riding, and track.

It is an oblong pen and ink sketch in black and white. The words, “University of pregon,” are above it and “Semi-Centennial” below it. The design for the invitations has not been completed, but the idea for it is being worked out by Bolf Klop, a junior in the fine arts de partment. The designs for the gen eral program and for the dedication of tho memorial to late President Prince L. Campbell will also be fin ished in the near future. The rapid growth of the Univers ity from a student body of 100 to 3,000, the continued addition of buildings, and increased interest in athletics and non-scholastic activ ities are factors that figure in the I Grease and IT DOES GET ON YOUR CLOTHES Dump your dirty clothes in a bag and call for our delivery— Phone 252 Domestic Laundry Phone 252 143 W 7th St. Graduation Gifts Silverware Fountain Pens Set Rings Belt Buckles Compacts Necklaces Wrist Watches Novelties A.

Wetherbee-Densanore’s have the best display of feminine apparel which would be most ap pealing to any sweet girl gradu ate. Advise you to look in on them this week end if you are down. Summer felts are poking their brims into sight and X>etitia Abrams has the smartest ones in the balcony of Wetherbee-Dens more’s. One ean hardly realize that felts are really here already. » # * You have undoubtedly heard me mention Tom, one of brother’s best friends at Harvard. Well, I had the most marvelous surprise the other day when he came through and took me to luncheon at the Anchorage. They had the best lunch menu with strawberry short cake on the regular order which is quite unusual. Tom liked the Anchorage a great deal as he said it reminded him of eastern tea houses. * I must admit the day he came was a red letter day for me. I had just gotten a cheek from home and gone directly to see Bnth Oyrus, Cfcas. T. Berg’s representative at 1360 Bast 20th street. She had the dearest two piece afternoon dresses of georg ette and each one distinetivo. And you know Berg’s are fam ius for hose—she has them, too. You must think I have become quite attached to the barber shop as I mention a cut in every letter, but the truth is I have a policy of a trim a week keeps the hair cut away. The Co ed barber shop have good barbers and are conveniently close. They are putting in another chair next year. Helen and I wandered into the Aladdin Gift Ware Shop yes terday and could hardly get away. They have the most fas cinating things I have seen any where—all sorts of antiques and barbaric looking jewelry—im ported pottery and even candy. Raup’s are the best florist in town as proven by the beautiful basket of flowers they arranged for me to present to a friend of mine for graduation. If they do it once they always will be your florist. Shouldn’t eaj^ candy, but when I pass McKillop’s I can’t resist dropping in to see what their bargains are for the week-end. This week-end they are my favorite English Toffee at 49e and butter scotch wafers, 32c, and lovely fluffy divinity fudge that not the sternest person in the world could resist for 42c. Was up a stump as to what to get a friend of mine for a P. G. (that means parting gift in case you don’t know) but that prob lem was easily solved when I discovered some brass candle sticks that will be just the thing. The place of discovery was the Art and Gift Shop. I have mentioned Underwood Elliott’s to you often and told you of the delicious foods and their closeness to the campus. Well, another point especially noticeable about their store is the speedy delivery service and their obliging clerks. This will be the last you will hear from me this year, so read all. Yours, CAROL.
