As befits campus supportinq nationally recognized pub- lications, the Oreqon student body has become critical in its analysis of the Oreqana and the Emerald. It is conscious not only of the technical quality, but also of the Worth oi the subject matter contained. Keeping this criti- cism always in mind, it has been the effort of the Oreqana staff, irorn editor to tlunkie, to endeavor to put together a yearbook that would please the students.

Business Manager George Luoma deserves all the praise that comes his way for his business-like handling of the profits department of the Oregon Daily Emerald this year. Withoui question, this has been the most successful financial year ior the daily in all its career-and the credit is due Mr. Luorna. He has managed, coaxed, and cajoled his oversize staff to super- human efforts, With the result that in all departments-from circulation to promotion-the paper is over in all its budgets. at t t i Part of the 75 Emerald business staff members who have worked in the various departments of selling, national advertising, layouts, merchandising, promotion, special accounts, office, and circulation.

There's more goes into a yearbook than just pictures and copy. Although it doesn't show much in the finished product, the biggest part of a yearbook is hard Work. And it is the kind of hard Work that has no glory and very little recognition. The students who do this Work deserve a greater amount of credit for loyalty and perserverence than they ever receive. F or theirs is a long, hard routine of paste and check and get those facts right -with no daily bylines nor any of the pleasure of seeing their ideas in print. To all of the 20-odd students who put in long hours Working on the Oregana, I express my grati- tude. Your rewards--if any-are mighty small for all that you have done. Thanks, too, to the professional men-I. W. Teter, Ed Turnbull, Art Markewitz, Bob Black -for their guidance and their time. But it is to the student staff members that the bouquets really belong. To Wilbur Bishop and Laureta Christoiferson goes the joint title of the hardest, most consistent workers . Artist Kay Chin comes in for honorable mention for his excel- lent incidental sketches and end pieces. For a good job in each of their departments-and on time-go a package of posies to Editors Marilyn Ashley, Clint McGill, and Bob Berghan, Writers Nisma Banta, Claire Lyon, and Ted Harmon did the big Work on the copy, augmented by Freshmen Elizabeth Ann Harrison, Spencer Weills, Bob McKinney, and others. Always on the spot when he was needed was George Prince, Whose chief duty was layout and art work. It is not possible to put everybody's name down here, but-named or un- named-the last thing l have to say is, my regards to each of you for a good job. Geo. Knight, Editor.

For a second year of campaigning and collecting, Business Manager Mr. Dick Williams receives the affection of all concerned. Oregon has always been high man in yearbook circulation, and 1940 was no exception. Witness the 2300 books Ctotal number printed? sold by Mr. Dick out of a University enrollment of 3700 at the beginning of winter term! But all the roses are not for Dick, tor, according to his statement, his boys and girls did the work. All he did was sit in his office and keep tab. More power to you, Dick-to you and your staff. lt's results that count-even in college-and it's organization and hard Work that get them for you. The editor may have some pretty fancy ideas, but it takes the cold cash oi big cir- culation and strong student organiza- tion support to make a book of them.
