Thorpe: Tells Cause Of Yearbook Delay -4 Bored Fi-eshmen Attempt To Go , 'Back To Nature' By Virginia Giddens To get away from it all was the burning desire of four Everett dorm freshmen Philip Mack, Letcher Crawford, Willis Kimrey, and Ross Cary-Elwes. The bored cosmopolites thought it over, made a fifty-cent bet to close the deal, and Tuesday night pitched camp due north of the tennis courts. All modern conveniences graced the haunt of these intrepid adven turers: an extension cord pro vided the luxuries of a radio and a lamp, and beds carted out from their rooms added the finishing touch to the home-like atmos phere. "Every now and then we'd get up and dance. The radio sure was swell," said Philip Mack, spokesman for the group. "It woke us up the next morn ing ..." Their hopes for a modified ver sion of a nudist colony in Everett's backyard were soon crushed when "Tubby" Hinson, supervisor of grounds, informed them the fol lowing day that their hegira must come to an end. The boys were broken-hearted. "It was so nice and cool and, sort of peaceful out there. We all love Nature ... It was wonder ful," sighed Mack. "But I guess it's a good thing we had to leave. It looked an awful lot like rain the next night."

Engraving Company Responsible For Summer Delivery By Jesse Reese Following campus reaction to the PU board's action Wednesday to extend printing deadline of the Yackey-Yack to July 15, Editor David Thorpe and J. M. Lear, faculty advisor to the board, revealed yesterday that the reason for the delay in the delivery of the year book lies with the neglect of the Pictorial Engraving company in fulfiling their contracted schedule. The printer has not received the material from the engraver on time," Thorpe announced. "We have met all dates to the engraver, but the printer has not received the material from the engraver according to schedule." Labor Trouble According to the engraver's state ment his delay has been due to labor . trouble which he has had in his plant. This trouble came at the time when the company was planning to rush the work in order to meet the deadline, and thus the delay was caused. Lear knows of no clause in the con tract with the engraving company which refers to a penalty ensuing from neglect in meeting the deadline. "Even if there is a penalty clause, if the company shows that labor trouble interferred, I doubt if the clause could be enforced," he said. A large amount of the engraving material was turned over to the Lassi ter Printing Co. last Monday. Be cause the annual would have to be rushed in printing, and could not pos sibly be completed until June 10, the PU board has given an extension of time to the printer in order to insure a high quality printing job. Thorpe said that the plan now i3 to mail each senior and each student not returning to school his copy of the book. The PU board will do thja mailing. The remainder of the year books will be issued next year unless some action is made in regard to mailing them all. This would cost approximately $440. "No Control" "The Yackety-Yack staff has done all it possibly can do to get the book out on time," Thorpe stated. "Forces over which we had no control caused this delay." Lear stated that in regard to Editor Thorpe there was "never an editor more conscientious in getting material to the engraver on time than David." In 1935 the annual was late in being issued due to a strike in the printing company. The printer resumed re sponsibility then and mailed out copies to each student.
