Colonel White said that under

The matter of taking theprint
ing contract of the Wallulah. yoa
book of Willamette university, ouj
of Salem, was discussed at length
A committee was appointed to in
vestigate the matter.
Tln contract was let to Dim 111
and Sons 6t Portland, for ?35y
less than any local bid. according
to Claire Geddes. student manag
er of the Wallulah, The item of
labor is said to account for the
difference. The piaim and Sons
House is a non-union shop, it is
said.
ft was held at the Ad club
meeting that members of tbe
Wallulah staff had. promised to
consult' local men Monday -,conr
cerning the letting of the con
tract. Instead, it was let Sat
urday, without giving further con
sideration to local men, it is said.
Claire Geddes gave as reason
for this that his staff was afraid
the low bid would be withdrawn
if they did not accept it at once, f
He admitted that taking the con
tract away, from Salem w-ould
probably tJicit some bad feelings
from local merchants.
' "But we will not lo from this
enough to offset the difference in
bids." he declared.
The Wallulah is hetter off fi
nancially than it has ever been
before, it is reported. Each stu
dent at the university is forced
under a new ruling to purchase a
copy of the book. Students upon
entering the university must pay
a S10 fee each semester to carry
on athletics, the Collegian, weekly
publication, and the Wallulah.
With about 500 sales thus guar
anteed, the staff is said to have
plenty of money with which to
work. Taking of pictures costs
nothing this year, it is under
stood, as Kennel-Ellis, is doing
i this work gratis.
