Wickham, Dean of Women at the University, received the following letter from a Marine Corps Lance Corporal i stationed in Viet Nam: “Dear Dean: “This letter may seem out of the ordinary and indeed it is. I am a j Marine presently stationed in South Viet Nam at the Chu Lai i Combat Base. During my tour of duty overseas, since August, 1965, I have come to realize the importance of mail and news from the .states. “My mail is fairly sparse and I am sure that some of my fellow Marines receive very little mail at all. It is for this reason that I have written to you. “I am in the hopes that you could publish an article in the Uni versity’s paper requesting mail. I can guarantee a reply to every letter received and will personally distribute the mail to Marines who w&uld be very happy indeed to find someone to correspond with. “Any solution or assistance which you could offer would be greatly appreciated. My reason for writing to you instead of to some other person is self-explanatory, I believe. Letters from females seem to instill more of a motivation and increase morale than any other form of correspondence, if you see my point. . . .

Well. Tim Hagen, sophomore in general science, tried, and he really isn’t so sure. Ilagen ran the following ad in the April 25 Emerald under the Personal column: "SUPER INTELLIGENT, unbelievably beautiful superfemale who de sires to make me the center of her universe. To be native or resident of earth unnecessary; however, must be English speak ing humanoid. 746-4939 between 11:50 p.m. and 12 p.m. this evening.” Hagen got a few phone calls as a result of the ad, but none camp from a young woman meeting the qualifications tip de sired. Crank Call "One girl called in the aft ernoon who claimed to be super intelligent, and wo talked briefly but then I heard a masculine voice in the background and she hung up.” Hagen termed this a crank call. He also received calls from u girl he already knew, and from an Emerald reporter who as sured him she wus •'semi-intelli gent and not even beautiful — unbelievable, however.” Hagen is doubtful that such a girl exists, and ran the ud after discovering that this is what he described in complet ing an application for a com puter dating service. Claiming that ho Drat asked a girl out on a basis of physi cal attractiveness. Hagen aays, "I want a »• irl who is compat ible with me but I’m looking for a wife. Marriage Uncertain "I used to assume I would eventually marry, but after two years of exposure to University "females, I’m not so sure.” Me applied to a computer dat inn service, hoping to lind a com patible date 'What is such a service but u super coke date that saves a lot of time and money?" he asked. Hagen prepared a philosophy for the Kmerald’s use. but lack of apace prohibits its reproduc tion here If any girl meeting his specifications is interested, however. Hagen would probably be happy to explain it to her Photo Philosophy Title of Workshop Photography enthusiasts will have an opportunity to see, to develop a new awareness, and a new philosophy in photography while enjoying a vacation in the Oregon country when they take part in a photography workshop this summer at the University. “Philosophy of Photography" is the title of the workshop scheduled for two separate ses sions in August.
