Perhaps the greatest scheme yet advanced for advertising Cor vallis, OAC, and Benton Couuty as a whole, is the latest idea that has found lodgement in Lieuten ant Quinlan's fertile brain.

His proposition is to change "Cor vallis Day" from June 1 2th to the 15th. Then give one great excursion to Portland, taking all citizens who could go, together with the cadets.
