EQ THE OREGANA a University color, the editor prophesied that the new name would meet with immediate favor. The Oregon Monthly discontinued publication in 1912 and the Emerald changed to a thrice-a-week, six column paper, its present size. al 4: 4' 'P Oregon first began the publication of a year book in 1901, and these publications also throw interesting light upon University life during the past seventeen years.
