The Federal Courthouse in downtown Eugene is officially named the Wayne Lyman Morse Federal Courthouse, in honor of Oregon's longtime United States Senator. Wayne Morse served in the United States Senate from 1945 to 1969, and was actively campaigning to return to the Senate at the time of his death in 1974. During his tenure in Congress, Morse was known as a courageous and independent leader who was a Republican, an Independent, and finally a Democratic member of the Senate.
The name is a little long on the tongue though. So we are looking for a nickname. Some people have already suggested "The Blue Whale." What do you think?
