Newspapers iu the uni varsity city and a reporter in the ag college city are being censured for pub lication of news that reflect» upon th«? characters of the schools of their cities. The news of the rebellion of high school students at Eugene has gone over the entire ! country, and as a result there 1 has been some reflection upon the school«, but more upon the students who brought about the condition. In Eugene, it is understood, the attempt to muzzle the newspapers went so far that advertisers were asked to threaten to withdraw their patronage unless the news was suppressed. In Corvallis a college • K'fl dis- obeyed her instructor and i was mildly pun ¡she« I for so doing, The reporter on the campus who sent the news to a Portland newspaper was set upon by a committee of students and beaten. The result has been that the news of the beating given the reporter has gone out and it, liriH been necessary to repeat the fi rut story in order to explain the Hee- ond one.

Advertising is used be cause, of the business it li rings to the purchaser of space and he wants his advertising in the news- papers that are read, Readers want all the news, and especially news of the kind which it was desired to suppress nt Eugeno and < ’orvallis. There is also another side to »Suppression of the story. the new» of the rebellion of Eugeno high school students would have only resulted in making tin* stu- dents i feel that they were immune and entitled i to special favors, They would have been encouraged to continue < their rebellion and to stir up further strife. The publi city given by Eugeno newspapers has don«1 more to clarify the situa- tion in Eugene than all the acts of parents, school teachers and school board members. Even ra bellious students do not court the kind of publicity the Eugene stu- dents have been getting, nnd if the situation ip Eugene becomes satisfactory it nd remains satisfar- DRUGSTORK For Mother, Sister or Sweetheart !
