Waldos Don't Fade Away
We see that Waldo has not failed us. lie’s a tradition again.
^We knew the big black and white monster would take over
tWSC and the Pullman butcher shops without any delay.
• He has a way of taking over most everything.
But poor Waldo is mourning (or should it be mooning) for
Snowbelle. At least that’s what the WSC Daily Evergreen
says. We wonder. Knowing Waldo we doubt that he’s eat
ing his heart out over any one girl. Waldo, we think, likes to
play the field.
Maybe we're wrong. Maybe he does truly love the big Saint
-Bernard. If so, we hope she ll write to him. After all, it’s the
least the girl can do.
And have you noticed what’s happened since Waldo left? It’s
ithose squirrels. They're getting downright uppity. Wander
around as if they owned the place. The other campus dogs
make a try at chasing them, but it’s not like Waldo. Really dis
gusting—they’ll be taking over the campus any day now.
It is a shame he had to leave. We miss him. (J.W.)
Improved Postal Service
The postman that operates between Eugene and Corvallis
seems to be really getting a work-out these past couple of
weeks. Take a look at our letter column today and you’d almost
conclude the Emerald has more readers in Corvallis than we
<do at the University. .
We hope the Senate accepts Don Foss’s excuse for missing
the meeting scheduled last week and that the .two groups do
manage to get together sometime this spring.
"Whenever we have an opportunity to meet with students
from other Oregon schools, the point again brought home that
Oregon and Oregon State are the only two schools of similar
size with similar problems in the state. We think a lot could be
accomplished by such meetings, planned to compare mutual
student government problems and possibilities for solution.
Concerning our Corvallis readership, we’d appreciate it if
we received theBarometer a little more regularly so we could
keep up on all the news and views from up North. At the
moment we feel as though the correspondence is entirely
one-sided, and we aren’t able to express our opinions on some
of the weightier issues at Oregon State. We’d appreciate it
if the Barmoeter exchange issues would stray down this way a
little more often.
Incidentally, if Aggie Land keeps such a close eye peeled on
.our edit page, they might try browsing our news columns on
occasion also. W’e ran the story front page on the OSC leaders’
visit with our senate twice before the meeting. It should have
jarred Mr. Foss’s memory enough so he could have let us know
what happened.

Letters...
.•.to the Editor
Emerald Editor:
Open letter to the ASUO senate:
Yes, we stood you \ip last
week! On behalf of the senate
of Oregon State college, I would
like to offer my sincere apologies.
The fault lies entirely within j
myself; I forgot to write down I
the occasion in my little black
book.
Of course, this Is no excuse
for missing this important
meeting, but I would like to
make it clear that we are still
very much in favor of holding |
such a conference, and believe
that much value can be de
rived from it. I especially
think It would be wise for us
to plan to meet in the spring
just after our new officers ;
have taken over, tha't Is if the
OSC senate can be counted up
on to attend such a meeting. |
Again, please excuse us and
good luck in any projects you
may undertake the rest of this!
year.

Emerald Editor:
The editor, like Tom Paine,
can very well conclude that [
"these are the chimes that try j
men's souls."

education for journalism.

Allen Memorial fellowships for
outstanding journalism students at
the University, finances practical
research projects for specific bene
fit to the newspapers of Oregon, j
and brings professional journalists
as guest speakers before the Uni-;
versity journalism classes.
The fund also supports the
ieminars for newspapermen which
bring reporters and editors back
to the campus for brief school
sessions and adds to the journal
ism library facilities at the Uni
versity.
Last year's Allen lecturer was
Henry R. Luce, editor in chief of
