It's Little They Ask
On any number of occa
sions throughout this past
. school year, the editors of the
Emerald have been approach
ed by students with, ideas and
material for "a good editorial.”
In most cases, the "good
idea" turns out to he some
body's promotion — the re
quest being for the Emerald
to support the cause editorial
ly. That’s not always the case,
however. Sometimes someone
comes to the "shack" angry
or bitter about something,
wanting the editorial page to
help carry the torch.
Usually, we don't cooper
ate. But by refusing to go
along we have never meant to
imply that a cause was un
worthy.
As far as that goes, we’d
guess that any number of
news stories this year have ac
complished far more, just by
telling the facts, than we could
by suggesting, threatening or
imploring. Far from being om
nipotent, the editorial is just
another piece of news to the
reader, one with a point of
view. And we have ample in
dication that the Emerald can
not move mountains by de
manding that they get out of
the way.
Having of late, however,
been unusually uncooperative
in this respect, we would like
to make a short observation
about the current YMCA
YWCA clothing drive.
This group, which we look
on as one of the really liard
working organizations on
campus, is not asking for
money — jarset clothes (pref
erably woolen) that you no
longer have any use for. That
seems like a reasonable re
quest, when one realizes that
in many parts of the world
our castoff garments would
be, literally, a king’s garb.
We are a very lucky bunch
of people, we Americans, liv
ing better than any other na
tionality on the face of this
earth. Perhaps we have a right
to get irritated occasionally
when it seems like we’re loan
ing or giving money out faster
than we’re making it. But j
when it comes to old clothes,
it's a different story.
You would probably give
anything you could to the des
titute who came to your door.
Why not be just as generous
to the millions of poor and ill
kept just beyond the front
gate?

Veterinary School
Open to Oregonians
Prospective veterinary students
whose residence is in Oregon may
Hpply for admission to the Colorado
A and M. School of Veterinary
Medicine through the Western Re
gional Commission for Higher Ed
ucation, according to Chancellor
Charles D. Byrne.
Arrangements have been com
pleted to admit six Oregon stu
dents in Colorado A and M each
year during the next two years,
said Byrne, chancellor of the Ore
gon State System of Higher Edu
cation and member of the Western
Regional Commission. The state
of Oregon will pay $1200 for each
space and the individual student
will pay tfie in-state fee.
The program is one enacted by
the '53 Legislature for highly
specialized subject matter fields
where it is more economical to
send students across state boun
daries than to set up expensive
schools in each state. Oregon will
receive students in medicine and
dentistry.
For applications, students should
write: Commissioner, Western Re
gional Commission for Higher'Ed
ucation, Care of Chancellor's Of
fice, Eugene, Ore.
A selection committee appoint
ed by the State Board of Higher
Education will interview appli
cants and make recommendations
to the Oregon commissioners for
appointment.
Included in the criteria for ap
pointment is permanent residence
in Oregon, a grade average equal
to or above the all-student aver
age at the institution where the
applicant completed his pre-vet
erinary work, physical fitness and
a personal interview.
