Work Plentiful
At Alum Office
One of the hardest working
branches of the University is the
Alumni office, since its purpose is
to keep a record of all graduates
and ex-students of the University
of Oregon. This record includes all
U of O men who are in the service
and a list of decorations given to
them. The Alumni office also
takes care of all homecomings and
banquets given in honor of gradu
ates.
In addition to all this work, the
office publishes “Old Oregon,"
the alumni magazine. George Lu
oma is the editor and has a staff
of students as his assistants.
Federation, Too
Another branch of this office is
the Oregon Federation. Every
summer one woman, usually a
student, tours Oregon cities in
search of prospective students.
The Alumni office staff is as
follows: Miss Doris Hack, acting
secretary; Mrs. Gene Gary, Rec
ords clerk; Mrs. Setser, assistant
records clerk; Roberta Quigly,
secretary; Ruby Orrick, stenogra
phic worker for “Old Oregon,”
Ralph Stephens, runs the addresso
graph machine.
Ex-Marine, Swiss Wife
Enrolled in University
B.V DOROTHY CONRAD
Fascinating is the word for
attractive Hildegarty Buckett,
now attending the University with
her husband, Mark.
Speaking with a Viennese accent,
Hildegarde greeted this reporter
with a cordial, “Hello', do come in,”
and ushered yours truly into the
Buckett’s apartment on 14th
street. Upon being told she and her
husband Mark, marine veteran of
the Pacific, were to be featured
in the Emerald, she smiled and
said, “No, I don’t mind at all.”
Hildegarde claims Switzerland
as her birthplace and has traveled
extensively. The possessor of a
golden tan, long brown hair which
she wears in braids on the top of
her head, and a handsome hus
band, Mrs. Buckett is majoring in
psychology and German and plans
to write psychological novels.
Coming to Mexico in 1934, Hilde
garde moved to Napa, California
with her parents in 1936. She com
pleted high school in three years
and then attended Napa Junior
College. At this time Hildegarde
won a literary contest in the San
Francisco bay region with a story
entitled “Straightening of the
Cross."
It was in November, 1944.
Napa Junior College that Hilde
garde met Mark. And it was at
this point that Mark began to
monopolize her time. The newly
weds then told of their marriage
August 5, in Napa, the honeymoon
in Canada and their return to tee
Oregon campus. (Hildegarde was a
UO summer student). After com
pleting their education at Oregon,
the couple plan to take graduate
work at Chicago according to Mr.
Buckett who is a political science,
major.
Commenting on the color of bis
bride’s eyes, Mark smiled ad
said, "It all depends on her
humour.’’ Hildegarde was quite
certain, however, that her hus
band’s eyes were brown and that
he was Canadian.
She: Where's your chivalry?
He: Oh, I turned it in for a
Buick.
