COON graduation will ring down the* curtain on another school year at the University of Oregon. In almost every respect, this year, which is about to become a part of the Uni versity’s record, has been a great one. Through the efforts of Chancellor Fred erick M. Hunter, all higher education was spared drastic budget slices. At Oregon, the new infirmary was opened fall term. Winter term saw the new physical education building in service, while the recent completion of the library climaxed an almost phenomenal build ing program. similar story is that of the associated students.| In athletic activities, under the new split program, success was particu larly outstanding. The football team held up its end. Basketball was an oitystanding suc cess—second only 1o the fact that the team made a wonderful showing and tied for the northern conference title was the heavy finan cial gross of $K,000. Atop the northern division standings at present is the Oregon baseball team. It has just completed the greatest “northern invas ion” of any team in recent history by sweep ing every one of its six games. It is almost safe to say the Wobfoots have 4hc title vir tually clinched, even in the face of the old diamond curse which falls on a team counting the number of outs or putting away the bats before a game is ovex 'J’MIE educational branch of the association has presented the strongest concert pro gram in its history and the new setup has “made good.” A progressive plan for the election of student body officers and a move to put appointive power in the hands of a capable and neutral body indicated a greater interest in student government, at least among campus leaders. Minor phases of the student activities pro gram have not been neglected, although many of them still need aid before they can be ex pected to establish themselves as self-main taining. These can be made to pay, with pro per promotion. # What About the Future pUIi tin- AKUO find (he II of 0, ltKIG-37 can be marked down in Ihe records as a year of achievement. However, ball games, beyond a certain point, are seldom won “out, of the records" or in the past; neither are student body cards sold for many terms on past per formances. New students do not select uni versities and colleges on past glories alone—■ Oregon must continue to offer the same fine educational program and must extend it. Her the University must not be blinded by its own glory, must not sit back, figuratively, fat and contented, satiated with its own suc cess. Kvrry college and university in the north Avcst is literally moving out. Idaho has an increased enrollment and is constructing u fine stadium which will, it hopes, seat 20,000, including Wallace Rccry. All over the confer ence there.is a budding— not of twigs and grass alone but of increased spirit, increased enrollment, increased drive and all the other things which make for academic and institu tional greatness. * * * 1 year s eoneerl series is a great one, the equal of this year's. The football team is going to be better if the annual serim mage practice was any indication. The Lemon Yellow and (ireen grid squad will include more capable reserves and the team will play a more open and interesting type id' ball. Oregon s basketball team should be even belter in comparison to the strength of the rest of the team in the league. The baseball team will be strong, alotlnigli both of these ^ftrlegations lose their captain, John Lewis. These things indicate a banner year. With the state and the northwest and every college expanding, this is no year to retrench or to attempt to save ‘‘pennies’’ which we have now. Such savings, no matter how impressiC? they may appear on paper, are hoarded at the expense of dollars in the future. * * # 'plUS is no time to stand pat and to rest on the institution s laurels. Oregon must continue to build for the future. On the one side is a brilliant future for Oiegon. On the other is the oblivion of second position. The University deserves a better fate. The Last Roundup rJ"'IIlS is not a swan song, not a summary or a review of the Emerald for the past year. Lest it be mistaken for such because this is the last Emerald, its purpose should be de fined before its gets well under way. My tenure as editor has been too brief to permit me the liberty of reminiscence. This piece, then, is in part a prospectus of the year to come, a prologue at the end instead of an epilogue. This it is but chiefly it is a small attempt to give recognition for faithful and inspiring service, a Weak testimonial to the worth of three people who with retiring edi tor Fred Colvig have formed the nucleus for the Emerald. * «• jgY its very definition, such an editorial is very limited in its appeal. It can mean little to tin; campus at large that the Emerald next year will attempt to maintain the high standards which Fred Colvig has set. It seems hollow to say it will strive for universal coverage of all University activities, large and small. It, is a small audience indeed which is interested in the statement that the Emerald staff next year is going to bend every effort to make a better paper but without warping nary a journalistic ethic. The readers who find these statements sig nificant are journalists. It is for them that this is written. Only this small audience can fully appreciate this statement of apprecia tion of services, for though merit and effort are everywhere recognized, few persons out side the school of journalism realize just how much of these things go into the making of 1.J0 papers each year for four years. Clair Johnson JT is perhaps to Clair Johnson that the Em erald’s debt is greatest. To express my personal appreciation for his assistance and guidance would be to understate his worth, for guide and aid he has been to every mem ber of the staff and to the paper as a whole. There is no need to enumerate the long hours Clair spent as managing editor or to list the other positions he has held. It has always been the paper first with Johnson. Possessing wide influence on the campus, lie lias defended it warmly and intelligently against the legions of critics which attack any newspaper attempting to hold up its head and fight for what seems right. Even more valuable than Clair's defense of the Emerald against enemies of the moment his been his defense of the paper against itself. He has been the check, the balance—in more than several instances, the one man who looked ahead. Virginia Endicott 'T'HE brilliant record which Virginia Endi cott has made on the campus seems a small thing to me in comparison with that which she lias hewn out for herself on this pa lie r. b’or lour years, Virginia has never been too busy or too tired to do something which really needed doing. Iler work has not only been rapid, it has been brilliant and accurate'. If ever there was a born reporter, it is Virginia. Moreover, she has extended the staunchness of her friendship to include everyone who has worked with her on the staff. Robert Lucas, editor of t wo years ago, once elmracterized her as “the best man on the start’.” If I mens erred in his statement, it was on the side of recalcitrance. # # Mildred Blackburne JJAINSTAKINU, eonseienlinns, so depend able slio lias often put tin* rest of the staff to shame has been Mildred lllaekburue. foe tour vears it lias been evident that if you wanted a tiling done well, you should do il yourself; if you wanted it done perfeetly, you should turn it over to Mildred. Millie has made mistakes in her four years on the hinerald—lor three of them 1 have watehed her and she never made the same error (wire. Her work has been more than inspiring. To anyone who wanted to learn, she has been the ablest and most willing teaeher, patient in explaining mistakes atul relentless in turning them bark ueross the eopy desk. * * * fl’’ anyone not on the luuerald staff or in the sellout of journalism has read this far and been bored, he or slm must admit that they '"’,,re warned. The\ eannot imagine how empty the shark is going to be next year without Millie fussing around the desk, with out hndieott nodding seriously over a type writer, and without t lair explaining this or that just isu t the thing to sa' or the wav to say it. 1 lie I'.meraId is going to suffer through the loss of their sendees. Were it not that they have been such an inspiration and a sort ot "taeult\ for younger workers, it would be almost impossible for it to earn on. It s going to be damn lonesome and lough sledding around here next year without these three people. Their personalities and sendee will not be forgotten. LliKUV MATTLXULY.
