I am just dead but it has been a swell day! Studied this
morning. Went downtown with George and Adele after lunch. We got Mom a present.
Tonight was our spring formal. I wore my new pink formal and George likes it.

University of Oregon, Eugene - May 6. U. O. Plans Ready for Junior Fete
Plans have been completed for the combined Junior week-end - Mothers day celebration to be held on the campus of the University of Oregon May 12, 13 and 14, it is announced by George Hibbard, Portland, general chairman. Beginning with the campus luncheon Friday noon events for students and visitors will fill nearly every hour of each day from morning to midnight.
The campus luncheon, to be held on Friday from noon to 2:30, will be enlivened with several events. Friars, senior honor society for men, and Mortor Board, senior women's sociey, will file about in caps and gowns, "tapping" those seniors selected for membership in these select groups. The university band will play and other entertainment will be offered. Queen Margaret I, Miss Margaret Wagner of Salem, will also be crowned queen of junior weekend at this time.
A baseball game, Oregon versus Linfield, a tennis court dance and a tea for the mothers will all be events on the program for the afternoon. The annual junior prom, which this year will have a number of new and unusual features, will bring the entire campus together in McArthur court for the evening.
Saturday morning at 8 o'clock the Oregon Mothers executive committee will meet, and the freshmen will arise at this hour and paint the huge "O" on Skinners butte. At 9 o'clock the freshmen and sophomores will have their annual tug-of-war across the mill race, and from 10 to 12 a water carnival with swimming, fancy diving, canoe tilting and water polo will be held. Mothers will also hold a mass meeting at 10 o'clock to transact business.
Saturday evening from 5:30 to 8:30 the annual Mothers Day banquet will be held and preparations to take care of more than 500 mothers and as many sons and daughters have been made.
The Canoe fete, one of the most colorful and unusual events of the year, will take place on the historic mill race at 8:30. Early sales of tickets indicate a record crowd for this event, and due to improvements in the millrace, the best fete on record is expected.
Sunday morning the newly elected executive committee of the Oregon Mothers will meet and at 11 o'clock all churches will hold special Mothers Day services. Each living organization will honor mothers at dinner on this day also.
Assisting Hibbard on the committee for arrangements are, David Eyre, Salem: Ed Field, Sheridan; Virginia Hatje, Caroline Card, Helen Burns, Geraldine Hickson, Julius Rehall, of Portland; Crossing Salem; Marshall Wright, Honolulu, T. H.; Don Caswell, Eugene, and James Ferguson, Pendleton.
