Parking Rules Violated
The parking situation on campus is not particularly good, but
it is not so bad that violation of the rules should become com
monplace.
We might agree with the philosophy that those who illegally
park can do so because they are risking a parking ticket and
fine. But the weather seems to have been keeping the campus
police inside, not out looking for violators. Therefore, drivers
have been taking advantage of their ability to park illegally and
get away with it.
- The situation has been especially bad in the Fiji parking
lot. Latecomers, and others who won’t take time to hunt for
a parking spot or who won’t park two or three blocks off
• campus, have consistently been filling up the end spaces
reserved for passing from one lane to another.
Last Monday there was a red Chevie convertible, with license
number 495-787, parked so that another car coming into the lane
could not get through and had to back out. On Tuesday there
was another car parked in the same place; this time a green
Plymouth, 240-502, and there were a number of empty spaces
throughout the lot. On Wednesday things were getting worse.
A red Studebaker, 205-688, and a blue Chrysler, 779-795, were
blocking separate lanes.
These are specific examples of what is a daily occurrence.
We could go on to mention the green Ford, the blue Kaiser
and the black Dodge recently parked for more than “just a
minute’’ in the circular drive at the west end of the library.
The way to put a stop to premeditated illegal parking is to
pass out tickets every day. This is the job of the campus police
men. The way to observe the rules is to consider illegal parking
out of the question, whether tickets are handed out or not. (R.

Letters to the Editor
Expression of Gratitude
Emerald Editor:
We would like to take this op
portunity to express our grati
tude to Dr. Baldinger, Dr. Dull,
Dr. Willis and all others who
have made a considerable con
tribution towards introducing a
true picture of Japan.
The celebration of the Perry
Centennial did much to further
the understanding of the peo
ple of this area of the Japan
ese way of life. By 'their ef
forts, these professors did an
excellent job of satisfying the
people’s curiousity.
Dr. Dull's collection of slides
was most successful in illus
trating the poverty of the peo
ple. Probably most people know
that more than a thousand
pounds of clothes were sent, un
der his direction, to the people
of Okayama, his residence while
in Japan. We are sure that Dr.
Dull’s kindness and that of the
people who contributed their
clothes will make the poor peo
.ple warm, not only bodily, but
also in their hearts.
We certainly appreciate what
those peopje' have done for
our people.—
May we 'say again, “domo
arigato gozaimashita.”

Those Who Criticize
Emerald Editor:
To those in Corvallis who crit
icize:
Standing on the sidelines for
several days, I have watched the
arguments presented by our pa
per in regards to the past Ore
gon-Oregon State game accumu
late. Not wishing to bring my
self into it, I now feel obligated
to do so, not only for myself but
for our school and what we all
call our school spirit. We have
it and regardless of what is
printed or written by our North
ern Adversaries, they cannot
take it away from us.
They say that the game was
a hoax and that if their team
was given a longer game not
stalled out, as they put it,
victory would have been theirs.
This is a round about way of
informing us that they are
tops. Not only in athletic acu
men, but also in spirit. This
point was expressed in Tam
Moore’s letter published 1 r the
Emerald.
I’m not going to compare OSC
or tear them down, but to you,
the reader, I’d like to make one
point. If we here at Oregon are
bad from a spirit standpoint and
for making rowdy comments at
players, then Oregon State is
equally bad. Theirs is not the
perfect school, despite the be
lief that they seem to sanction,
I don’t think that many of
you were at the OSC-WSO
game larft Saturday, but had
you been it might have done
your hearts some good to hear
the “Sacred” Beavers booing,
yelling wise comments and in
general, carrying on much the
same as we here in Eugene.
OSC was no better than we
when you heard them hoot the
few goals made, and the fact
that they held a 20 point lead
didn’t seem to affect their sym
pathy. They wanted just one
thing — a crushing victory with
out competition. So they got it,
but their conduct was no better
than ours. Let’s wait and see who
wins the coming games before
passing judgement of the type
that appeared in Thursday’s
Emerald from OSC.
Dave Chambers
On 'Riding' Players
Emerald Editor:
After reading Thursday’s let
ter to the editor, I've come to the
conclusion that it takes no spec
tacular talent to rap one out. So,
after years of wanting to, here’s
my contribution.
It seems Mr. Tam Moore is
offended at our “riding the
players while they’re shoot
ing.” If my memory serves me
correctly there was some “rid
ing” of Oregon players at one
particular 0£5C game at Cor
vallis. As a matter of fact, it
looked more like bronco-bust
ing than riding. One of their
over-zealous beavers “rode”
Barney Holland right to the
floor, resulting in more than an
injury to his pride. I presume
they remember that, since
their new floor was spotted
with blood.
But do you suppose it strains
their memory, or perhaps con
science, to recall the great roar,
applause, and cheering that , rose
as Barney hit the floor? Could
it be that the sight of blood
arouses the great student spirit
OSC constantly boasts of? Won
der why their coliseum isn’t of
Greek architecture. They’d feel
more at home.
He also complains of pollu
ted air at Mac court. Coming
from an OSC man this seems
a little silly, doesn’t it? May
be Mr. Moore assumes none
of the “Country Clubbers”
have been in Aggie land where
fog is steam, and the atmos
phere puts Weyerhaeuser to
shame.
In short, if Mr. Mo.ore and his
FFA friends can hardly stand
it here, why do they bother? We
wouldnt miss ’em.

Five 'Eyesores'
By Lee Ramsey
Emtrald Fculur* Writer
With the completion of the new
Krlc W. Allen Journalism building
next fall, the main campus eye
sore , , . five quonsets between
Commonwealth and Deady hall...
will be removed to the area behind
the physlcnl plant.
After W'orld War II when a
large amount of veterans began to
enter tho college, new buildings
were needed to hold the suddenly
increased enrollment. As building
materials were still scarce and the
University did not have time to
begin any major building plan, the
problem was solved by erecting
several quonset huts until they
could be replaced with new build
ings.
In 1947 the majority of tho
quonsets were constructed and
were used for various classes in
cluding geography, geology and
several others. Not until last year
when McClure hall was dismantled
did the Journalism school take over
sole possession of four of them.
Another was taken for the Em
erald office.
In about 1951, the quonset by
Hayward field was constructed for
the 1401*0 department and later
another was built by the architec
ture budding for use by the bio
logy department for working with
hot or radioactive materials. No
plan for removing these is under
way.
The Journalism quonsets,
which are to be moved to the
physical plant area, will serve in
the future for storage or garage
purposes and it Is hoped, states
T. I. Wright, physical plant super
intendent. to put one of these to
use as a spray {minting building.
