Friendly Canine Pal old Campus Standby Smokey is undoubtedly the most learned student on the campus be cause he has attended for at least 12 years. That should make him at least a Phi Beta Kappa with a couple of masters degrees besides. Smokey is a rather large police dog with a thick grayish black coat which he wears continually. Helen and Ed Bailey have known him for a long time as he has been a steady guest for meals ever since he came to the campus. Mr. and Mrs. Bailey live across from the Theta Chi house on Nineteenth, in the neighborhood where Smokey is seen most frequently. He has been the guest of nearly every house on Alder street for either eating or sleeping. His tastes seem to vary considerably as he fa vors certain houses at certain times. Alpha Gams and their cook, Mrs. “Perky” Perkins claim him as their special friend and he returns the friendship. Almost any after noon he drops around to the Side to see what’s going on and will ac cept bites of food with only a little persuasion.

Portland 7, Oregon “Photo Snaps” r fact that the hero of this story loves people and food. Before the war, Smokey spurned feminine companionship of any kind. He was given to the Phi Delts about 12 years ago by Lynn McCready and was inseparable from the fellows. When the boys were drafted, Smokey couldn’t tol erate a campus where women pre dominated. He was sent to a farm near Junction City, but rural life didn’t appeal to him so he walked back, only to be sent out again. After three attempts he finally stayed at Oregon regardless of a dearth of male company. Upon re turning, he always went to Tay lor’s because he knew Mrs. Vince Taylor would feed him. His hopes were regained when the ASTP fellows came to the campus, and one company stayed at the Phi Delt house. Smokey went to classes with that company. He could always tell the group to which he belonged. One day Smokey was leading his company around the circle by Gerlinger hall. He kept looking back to see that all the soldiers were in correct military order. If they weren’t, he gave a sharp bark, and-they imme diately straightened up. Things were looking black for Smokey one day. Captain Cable at Hendricks complained of several dogs barking and disturbing the peace. One of the offenders appear ed to be a police dog by the name ■ of Smokey, and the captain didn’t realize the importance of this pop ular canine.
