We Cant Scold
Booing usually isn't considered “proper.” And editorials fol
lowing an exhibition of booing like that we heard at the \YSC
games usually are of the scoldng variety.
But we saw that game and somehow we can't scold.
Not that we condone poor sportsmanship, but we think the
officiating was bad too. Not that it gave Washington State
an unfair advantage—it was impartial in its “badness.”
Most of the booing came from the men's section. Men. after
all, go to games to watch basketball not to "rally, rally.” And
when the game is plagued with consistently bad calls against
both teams, they're bound to get mad.
And we can’t just say, “Be good and stop booing, men. It
isn’t nice.” That might be all right for high school, but this is
college and supposedly we pay to see a high caliber of basket
ball.
If the players are good, don't we have a right to expect a high
caliber of officiating too?
We think so.
However we would like to mention the noise that goes on
when an opposing player is trying to make a free throw. It's not
his fault that the call was bad and it's just plain poor sports
manship to make the noise that the Oregon crowd did whenever
jWSC attempted a free throw in Wednesday’s game. (JAY.)
A Matter of Opinion
We received a clipping of an editorial from the Corvallis
Gazette-Times in Friday’s mail from somebody up in Aggieland
■who wants to make sure the Emerald knows just how Corvallis
felt about the Oregon-OSC game down here a week ago.
It sounds like sour grapes to us. After all, we know it’s pretty
bard to take a defeat like that, watching a team that was highly
touted as a national winner in pre-season forecasts go -down in
defeat to an Oregon team, which played some of the most skill
. ful basketball we’ve seen in a long time.
The Gazette-Times says, “We were among those who at
tended the OSC-U of O basketball game in Eugene Saturday
evening. We wished we hadn’t gone—not so much because we
lost the game, but because we get irritated every time we go
down there.” -
The editorial then goes on to complain about University
sportsmanship. Such actions as booing an opposing team,
cheering when your side gets a foul shot, and calling players on
the opposing team “names” were listed as Oregon „student
boners in the field-of sportsmanship. It sounds as if those poor
Beavers are getting awfully thm-skinned.
Organized cheering doesn’t seem to satisfy the Gazette
Times either. “Not that it makes any difference to a visitor,
but the organized cheering at the University can’t compare
■ with ours. The men are more than lackadaisical except for in
dividual remarks and booing. Pact of the time the yell-leaders
don’t even bother to lead the men because the men won’t co
■ operate.” ■ —;yy • ' ' \
[ How about that men? From.where we sat, Oregon had one of
.- the; best “white shirt” sections, this year at the OSC game. And
Tom Gaines is putting a uof more pep in the rally squad than
’ Oregon has seen in quite a while.
, Those spectators, packed in Mac, court came to see basketball
and, iirour opinion, they saw reat basketball. Everyone seems to
' agree with that.except L. H. Gregory and a few Beavers up at
| Oregoa. State. * .1
TheyGazette-Times doesn’t, like the facilities we have at
Mac court. Well, we don’t either. It’s old, it’s too small and
somebody- sold too many tickets for the big contest.
But we’ve also gone up north and sat in the aisles of beautiful
Gill coliseum to watch basketball. Even if the coliseum can’t
burn as the Gazette-Times boasts, the aisles still make uncom
fortable -'sitting.
We’re sorry a little thing like an OSC defeat gets Aggieland
so upset Sof when they come down for a return engagement in
ai. couple weeks, we not only have to beat them to retain the
Northern division lead—but we have to try to make them like
it. Right?
They Try!

Judith Joyce Ellefson:
Great Love Was Theater
By Toby McCarroll
Emerald Columxiit
It would be difficult to esti
mate how many sections of our
University have been affected
by the untimely death of Judy
Ellefson. The members of her
house, and the professional or
ganizations to which she be
longed will find her absence a
tremendous loss. The many peo
ple who were acquainted with
her sparkling smile and kind
eyes will not easily find a sub
stitute for her personality.
But the great loss will be
felt in that section of our com
inunity where
she gave so
greatly of her
talent, all of
the areas of
entertainment.
Hers was a
noble concept ,
of the theater
which was
wide enough
to include all |
forms of tne
musical and dramatic arts. She
was raised in a family whose
primary concerns were music
and drama. Her younger years
were filled with innumerable ac
tivities in the fields of her de
votion.
During these three years at
the University she worked al
most unceasingly in many types
of entertainment. She was a
member of the University Thea
ter executive board and she par
ticipated in many musical con
certs.
Her talents were not limited
to the University. She fre
quently appeared in various
cities and communities in this
area; one such appearance
took her to the army camps in
Washington. She appeared in
two plays here and she showed
herself to be a fine actress,
with more feeling than one
would believe she could have
accumulated in her twenty
years.
Hers was a great love for the
theater and for the audience, this
love will not be easily replaced.
