Swim ming classes swelled as instruc tors gathered a group in the glit ter and taught students how to wade gracefully. Porches Slightly Cold Fog fogged into sleeping porch es and beds turned from warm and comfy to damp and soggy. Profs reported an increase in stu dent snoozing as classrooms be came the ideal place to sleep as it grew too tiresome to wring the sheets out before going to bed. Those unfortunates who had eight o’clocks groped their wray across the campus as fog distort ed vision and visibility. Men took the opportunity to bump into that “blonde in econ,” promptly res cued her from the clutching hands of the dismal fog, and then wolf ishly licked their lips and asked for a date. Drizzle Accompanies It also rained a little. And the river rose a little. And Califor nians were late coming back. But the rain only caused a million dollars worth of damage in the Eugene area. Yes, it rained—a little. And then one morning eight o’clockers on the way to their nine o’clocks, gasped, and cried, “By gosh, it's the sun.” Some of the six year seniors muttered in their second cup (out coupon six) of coffee, that “it looks like an early spring which causes my corns to ache.” Coeds phoned home for their spring outfits, and males thought longingly of days when spring meant picnics with A cardless California converti bles, and of course, girls. Then high-country boys donned mackinaws and paraded uncon cernedly around the campus as other Webfoots drank coffee, chocolate, and even anti-freeze to keep moving and attend classes. Snow fell, and the far south del egates gathered in the open spac es to romp and play in the stuff which they occasionally see in the movies. So time marches on . . . while students wait patiently and some what fearfully for February 2 when the groundhog will first make his annual appearance, thereby deciding the spring term fate of some 2400 Ducks.

He attended Eugene grade and high schools and came to the University in 1937. In his fresh man year he was on John War ren’s frosh basketball squad. He was from early youth “air mind ed” and took pilot training at his first opportunity. He left Oregon in 1940 after being appointed to Randolph field where he won his wings. In 1941 he returned to marry Alice Giustina, ’42, of this city. Seen Much Action Since Pearl Harbor he has seen action on many fronts from Pa cific to Atlantic. His death oc curred as the last of many en gagements in which he partici pated. Taylor was promoted to the rank of major a few weeks ago. Mildred Wilson Spies (Continued from page two) North Pacific Dental college in Portland. He got the diploma— and a wife, Dr. Mildred Spence, a scant five feet of enthusiasm for children’s dentistry — and equal enthusiasm for Buck Bu chanan. Ten years of dentistry in Eu gene followed his graduation. Then Edgar and Mildred Buchan an moved to Pasadena, and as he put it, “We told everybody we were going to Pasadena so we could study more. We didn’t say what I was going to study, though.’’ What he went to study was dramatics. While seeking to en roll in the Pasadena Community Playhouse he is reported to have said, “I don’t know whether or not I’ll ever be an actor, but I’d like to be. And I’d like to study here. I can afford to spend the money even if it turns out to be only a perpetual hobby with me.” It appears to have been money well spent judging from his suc cess playing in major roles in such films as “When the Dal tons Rode,” “Arizona,” in which he played Judge Bogardus—and in “Penny Serenade,” with Irene Dunne, in which he portr^ed Applejack. More recently he ap peared with Barbara Stanwyck and Henry Fonda in “You Be long to Me.” Now that Edgar is under con tract to Columbia Studios, Mil dred has been managing a bit. They have bought a five-acre tract facing on a lake well stocked with fish, in Northridge, a section well-populated with mo tion picture stars. There their home is to be built.
