Audrey Holliday, junior in psychology, vice-president of
i Kwama, 1942-43, and now president of Phi Theta, stated, “I be
i lieve that good always wins out in the end, but I’m learning
that the best way to play dirty pool is to play dirty pool better.”
In the three years that she has been in the University Miss
Holliday has covered a lot of territory with her interest in stu
dent atiairs. Audrey s curly brown
head has bent over council tables
ever since she started out as ser
geant-at-arms of the WAA as a
freshman, and from then on: mem
ber of AWS council, YWCA coun
cil, house activities chairman,
sophomore representative, and
then junior representative to the
ASUO executive committee, mem
ber of the Educational Activities
board, and the University budg'et
committee.
Reporter
As a reporter on. the Emerald in
her freshman year Audrey be
came thoroughly acquainted with
campus personalities and faculty
members. As a columnist later,
she interpreted her views of the
University. Recently Miss Holliday
commented, “The student attitude
is wrong in many cases. The most
important thing here is the Univer
sity in the broad sense of the word,
and too many people make the
mistake of emphasizing only one
aspect of it.
“I am very much in favor of the
Student Union,” she added, “It will
be a decided asset in so far as co
ordinating University group life.
This should be kept a live issue,
the committee must be alive, and
the machinery should be set up so
that the minute the war is over the
Union building can go up.”
the perennial Chesterfield you will
also be a picture on Easter morn.
Some ideas for your colorful dress
are: scooped, square, or high
necks; cap, slightly puffed, or slim
shirt buttoned sleeves; peplums
and shirred-line hips; modified
di rndles, unpressed pleats or soft
draping in your skirts. Short
length coats of the pea-jacket va
riety are very good for spring.
Boxy toppers in checks, stripes, or
plaids can also be worn with
dresses.

Miss Holliday is acquainted with j
the problems associated with the !
Student Union since she was a
member of the original investigat
ing committee out of which the
present committee was appointed.
As a member of the committee for
the investigation of student af
fairs, the constitution committee,
and appointed by Dr. E. M. Pallett
to serve on the committee for the
investigation of an ASUO booklet
similar to OSC’s and to that pub
lished by Stanford, Audrey has a
background reaching into nearly
every sphere of interest.
Fisher Woman
Trim, slender, 5 feet 5'i inches
tall, Miss Holliday is an expert
fisherman — especially when it
comes to mountain trout, steel
head, or salmon. She shot her first
deer when shfC was nine years old
while living with her father, who
was then a forest ranger on the
coast. “I used to go arrowhea.d
hunting up in the Horseheaven
country in Washington," she add
ed, with a sign of her sense of
humor coming to the surface in
her hazel eyes. Audrey is well
known in athletic circles on the
campus; in 1943 she was tempor
ary representative to the athletic
board; has been a member of the
University hockey team, and
played volleyball, basketball, and
softball in the intramural tour-1
neys.
December ~
Born in Portland, December 7,
1923, Audrey started in Gresham
high school when she was thirteen
years old and worked her way
through as fountain girl, telephone
operator, and various other jobs
while taking an active interest in
student activities. She was girls’
league president there, vice-editor
of the annual, and a member of
the student council and the girl
reserves. Entering the University
of Oregon on an Oregon Mothers’
scholarship, Miss Holliday has
worked her way through school.
Upon graduating Audrey, who was
a member of the debate symposium
in 1941-42, is planning to enter law
school and from there find a career
in government service.

“There are methods . . . then
there is madness . . . in writing
and receiving letters," our friend
Prunella proclaimed from Urn
depths of a box. Prunella was sort
ing various bundles of the tied
with-blue-ribbon variety.
“You know the fellow with the
blue letterman’s sweater who
meanders up Alder street every
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday,
Thursday, Friday, and Saturday?
He's the one who causes most of
the trouble,” she complained bit
terly, a large tear falling brightly
and plinking on the sharpshooter’s
medal pinned under her left arm.
Prunella went on to explain, “He
never arrives until two minutes
until nine, and Dr. E. C. A. Mus
tardseed hates to see me arrive at
9:12 a.m. every Monday and Wed
nesday,” She doesn’t have a nine
o'clock on Friday, and morning
classes are non-existent on alter
nate days for her. Amazing girl.
Amazing schedule.
Suspense
She finds it a fine art of sus
pense in meeting the postman. The
question . . . whether to find out
immeditely whether a man forgot
to write again, or go through ev
eryone else’s mail, and see who’s
getting bills for what.
Tuesdays and Thursdays Prun
ella devotes to methods and tech
niques of writing letters. She spe
cializes in brown ink, air mail sta
tionery, round circles over the “i’s”
and backhand, because a back
slanting handwriting indicates fine
perception and reserve, according
to a column in a newspaper Prun
ella read two years ago. She reads
the New Yorker first for a clever
inspiration, spins a platter, “You
Made Me Love You,” (to convince
herself) and sprays a fine dash of
Charles of the Blitz's “Passionate
Mood,” completing the scene.
Her other letter is written in
the last row third from the left of
Shakespeare, according to Prunie.
It is reserved for “Dear Mother,
Have you sent the money for my
new monogrammed Spauldings
yet?”
Whoops, there’s that blue letter
man’s sweater . . .
