to have a campus orchestra back
again.
Big plans are being made by a
l&tle fella called Tin Elliott Wilson
who is looking forward to an easy
fortune by installing parking
meters at mighty Hendricks park.
Wonder who would be the best
customer—or would it just be a
case of dear Elliott spending his
own money?
Big happiness was sounded at
the Sig Kap house dance when
Jeanette Larson announced her en
gagement to Billy Murdock of the
fighting Navy.
Whats’ all this unhappy talk
about our feetsball team not buy
ing many bouquets for their coach
Tex Oliver? Coul dthis mean.that
mutiny is even possible on a foot
ball field?
Questions are being asked about
fonim Drugas and M. liakow of
the house on the hill. Just what is
the story this time?

Radio Wins Struggle
(Continued from page three)
been conducting radio classes here
at Oregon, and untH this fall has
been in charge of KOAC broad
casts originating from here. This
year, the actual broadcasts are
being produced by Mrs. Mary Sta
ton Krenk, wife of the afore
mentioned Marvin Krenk, so that
Mr. Wood can have more time to
spend with his prime interest,
speech pathology.
Mrs. Krenk
A comparatively light sche
dule of broadcasts is now in pro
gress with regular Tuesday and
Thursday broadcasts, and a pro
posed every-other-Wednesday
slot to be filled with a campus
varety show, one of which has
already been presented this year.
Classes are presented in the fun
damentals of broadcasting, radio
workshop, and radio play produc
tion, and a student staff of five is
aiding Mrs. Krenk with her KOAC
broadcasts.
The history of Oregon's radio
work has developed fairly well in
r ———
pace with the University develop
ment, and like the Universty, fu
ture plans are already in motion.
A proposed new and bigger studio
in a remodeled Villard hall with
better facilities is planned for the
very near future, with the more
distant future looking even rosier
for radio at Oregon.

Dear Emerald Subscriber:
I'or several weeks we have been receiving letters from sub
scribers saying they have not received their copy of the Em
erald regularly. W e are sorry to hear of this conditioji because
we know how much you want the Emerald or you would not
hav.e subscribed to it.
We are doing everything possible to remedy this situation
and hope you will be patient while we are trying to help you.
The subscripition list has been checked thoroughly and
found to contain the addresses the way vou sent them to this
office. If you have moved recently, please let us know. Be sure
you have indicated the proper street number, name and city
zone.
We checked with the Eugene post office and the superin
tendent of mails assured us the Emeralds were leaving the Eu
gene office. There is sometimes a day’s delay in sorting due to
the shortage of help since the war. They expect to be able to
do this more readily in a short time.
The best advice we can give you is to check with your
local post office and'see if they are getting the Emerald. There
is nothing more we can do than check our files when your com
plaints come in. All names in the records are sentEmeralds ev
