DIARY
— OF A —
College Girl
april 3 well, here it is the
end of the second week os
this here now spring
term i’ve been hearing so
much about and what have
i done about it.
nothing, no studying,
no strolling aimlessly
about in gay spring clothes,
no love even,
it just doesn't live
up to advance publicity
is all i have to say.
people all year have been
saying just wait till
spring term and will you
have fun.
but shucks it's just like
any other term except
there’s more rain.
what a disappointment.
i came back with a lot
of flimsy - or is it filmy
spring clothes and i haven't
been able to wear them
even except on easier.
and all i did then was
go to church.
but maybe things will
improve, maybe the sun
will shine, maybe i'll
fall in love, who knows.
other people do.
april 4 i surprised myself
today by going up and
polishing off a bit of
studying, the first
this term, too.
people tell me that
it's easy to make good
grades spring term, but all
i have to say is who says so.
it’s practically impossible
to make myself study
even when it rains.
what it will be like when
the sun shineH i shudder
to think.
april 6 well, things are

Virginia Emdicott Finds Time
For Manij Campus Activities
Tops in campus activities, and tops in the love of her heart, journal
ism that’s dark, capable Newspaper Women Virginia Endicott.
Virginia will be graduated this spring from the school of journalism,
after- four years of stellar campus achievement. Among these achieve
ments is four years of outstanding work on the Emerald, where she
served as reporter, and in various editolial positions.
Virginia has worked on the Oregana, and was for a time news editor

activities in which she has had a

sophomore years to presidency of

"O" for service on the paper, and

in fact they looked so
good today that i fared forth

literally soaked,
but i should care, it
probably wont be the

during one of the brighter
moments of the day i
walked over to the race
to meditate upon the
first signs of spring

time the thing really got
into my blood, i feel now
that perhaps all the things
i have heard about this

foundation in fact. ,
i look about with more eager
eyes and in my winter-worn
soul there stirs a longing
for adventure,
and why not ?
it’s spring!

was leader of the music group.
, Last year Virginia was a candidate
for presidency of AWS. She is af
filiated with Chi Omega.
Has Other Interests
Besides these varied activities,
Virginia is intensely interested in
many others. She loves music, and
plays the violin, though she admits
ruefully, she hasn’t had much time
to play in the last few busy years.
She likes sports of all kinds —
swimming, golf, skiing, and is an
enthusiastic mountain-climber. Tre
mendous vitality and dynamo-like
energy permit Virginia to carry a
heavy scholastic and activity
schedule and still find time to do
the things she enjoys outside of
school.
Virginia “Endy” to her asso
ciates in the Shack believes the
most important thing for a girl’s
enjoyment of her college life is
finding an activity that interests
her. However, she wains most em
phatically against useless ones
that waste time and energy, and
bring no returns.
Activity .Should Be Useful
“An activity that will have
some bearing on a girl's life after
she leaves school is the best and
most useful for her, and one from
which seh will get the greatest
benefit," Virginia remarked.
Virginia’s plans for her life after
she graduates this year are re
solved simply into one ambition
Asked what she wished to do, she
replied, with the infectious smile
that is as much a part of her eyes
as her mouth “I want to be a
newspaper woman.”
Reporting of any kind is the
field that appeals to her the most.
“L’ve been told that a newspa
per’s no place for a woman until
I’m tired of it,” she said firmly.

intend to, no matter how hard I
have to work.”
Virginia admits, however, that
the prospect of graduating, ami
leaving Oregon after four full and
happy years here, makes her feel
sad, and a little frightened.
“These years have been so
short," she sighed.
People We’ee Seen

By MARTHA STEWART
He was one of deep artistic tem
J perament. . . .an actor to be exact.
He had been in all the college pro
1 ductions of Broadway hits, and
t he had done nobly, if he did say
so hifnself. He'd played all the
j parts that are coveted by the ac.t
| ors of the world from buffoon to '
tragic figure, from juvenile lead to
aged King Lear. He’d run the
gamut of emotions from A to B. i
He'd played Hamlet in the bard's
immortal play. Campus wits pro
phesied that one day he'd be offer
ing to be “Mourning" in “Mourn
ing Becomes Electra.”
Like all great men his success
came from a small beginning. He
made his debut in a more or less
famous gang picture, playing the
part of one of the innocent by
standers shot down by machine
gun fire. He was the third one
from the left. The one with the
hole in the sole of his right shoe.
The applause was tremendous.
Now as a senior his desire to
become famous as an actor was
fulfilled. The campus was at his
feet. People pointed to him with
pride just as they did to the new
library or to the university peren
nial who had been an undergradu
ate for eleven years.
“See that man." they'd say, and I
his manly chest would swell with
pride. "He is the college Barry
more" And then they'd list his
theatrical triumphs.
He enjoyed it so much that he 1
sort of fell into the habit of j
prompting people just a little if
they failed to make some comment '
on his achievements when he!
thought they should.
Of course he was very subtle!

■'Tell me,” he’d beg "did you

ually a rather noncommital "yes."
"Wha,t,” he would ask then with
a strange tenseness, "What did you
think of my performance?” It j
made him feel swell when they j
invariably told him how good he |
was. “Colossal,” they would bab- j

endous," they’d insist.
It required such a little prod
ding to make people tell him he
was wonderful that he took to

"Oh by the way,” he’d say,

n’t understand why they didn't*
go.it used to bother him be
cause he remembered positively of
having seen some of those very
people in the audience. And yet
next day when he'd ask them if
they’d seen the show they shook'
their heads emphatically and hur
ried away.
“They’re missing something big
and fine,” he thought seriously to j
himself. “How sad." And so when I
people told him that they hadn’t1
seen his sterling performance in
his latest show he’d grab them
firmly by the buttonhole and say:
"Why that’s too bad. I play the
part of the lover scorned. In the
first act I.”
“You must have been wonder
ful,” they’d murmur helplessly.
"Collossal,” they’d insist almost
pleadingly. “Stupendous” they’d
repeat.
It made him feel all warm and
glowing deep inside. People adored
him. He was the campus equival
ent of a matinee idol. Definitely
he was an actor.
And then one day as he was
carrying his handsome profile
down the street he ran onto a
classmate, and he hailed him
heartily.
"Hello there. You're just the
man I want to see. Did you see
Destination' ?”
“Yeah.” his companion admit
ted.. "I saw it.”
“Well,” he insisted, “I want you
to give me your honest opinion.
A’hat did you think of it ?”

“or do you want me to tell you
what you want to hear?"
“Your honest opinion,” he in
sisted generously. "Just tell me
what you really thought of the
play.”
“It was lousy,” his classmate
said emphatically. The actor's eyes
popped out, and he gasped in
startled surprise.
“What,” he asked unbelievingly,
“did you think of my perform
ance?”
"It wras lousy.” His classmate
said for the second time. He gasp
ed again.
“W-what did you say?” he
stammered weakly.
“I said that it was lousy,” his
companion repeated.
"Lousy," he murmured. “Yes, 1
