It's 'Far Side/ but not by a long shot First of all, a big thank you to all those who called or dropped by to let the Emerald know their feelings about the loss of the Doonesbury comic strip. We also received numerous suggestions for replacement cartoons, as well as submissions by student cartoonists. We needed your opinions and appreciate the interest. . • • ■ .Unfortunately , it was unanimously Doonesbury that readers wanted back, and we are sorry to hear this . because Doonesbury has-become impossible for us to "obtain from UniversalPress Syndicate any longer. It’s no “communist plot”- on'out part- — just the simple fact that we now have to “look elsewhere" for a second cartoon. .Some readers said they read the Emerald just for Doonesbury, and while this may be. legitimate, we hope you wiU'still read .the paper. And. we hope that you as well as "non-Doonesbury” fans will enjoy Gary Larson's • "Far Side:".which receivedmany votes. The new strip will take a week most likely to secure, so until then Opus and clan wilt, have to do. '' . . Regarding the cartoonists who dropped by, Ross Martin and the staff are still reviewing your work and will get bkck to you. Your ambitious offers are impressive as a daily strip takes much work. ■ . Again,-thank you for your imput. We’re disappointed to lose Doonesbury, but problems with UPS literal - ■ |y beyond.our control brought-us to this point. (Note: the Oliphant editorial cartoons, also Which we dearly love and receive from UPS, will disappear soon. too. We have not yet decided upon a new editorial cartoon but should do so soon.
