Photo by Pectsley Editor Robert Ruhl, Mail-Tribune, Medford, Oregon, Winner of a l934 Pulitzer award for jour- nalism, edited the sports section of the 1898 Owl. ft L Na LQTTHANGE, how some things stick in the mind. Although it is over 60 years ago, I remember as if it were yesterday, the day the editor of the Owl asked me if I would contribute an article entitled, Why l prefer to be a lunior, and the pride l felt in that request. lt was my first contribution to that now Venerable pub- lication .... The idea in general was to this effect: The lunior benefits by his experiences as a Freshman and Sophomore, yet un- like those of the Senior year must be clouded by the sense of the close of high school life. This, the lunior period, is the best period of ally one has bene- fited by the Freshman and Sophomoric periods, hasn't reached the final year, and therefore is in a position to get the maximum joy and profit out of life.
