Sen-Ices of Southpaw Giencke, temr porarlly at least, are denied the Portland Northwestern League club. Manager Williams received this decree Saturday night by message from J. H. Farrell. secretary of the National Baseball Com mission. It appears, according to See-. retary Farrell. that Giencke is the prop erty of the Adrian, Mich., club. According to Giencke, he signed a con tract with Adrian to pitch for that club last year and at the end. was to be given his release. Now Adrian has put in a claim for him and Secretary ar rell sees fit to declare that he Is the property of Adrian, Inasmuch as the na tional Baseball Commission aoes not rec ognize side contracts, the head under which Giencke'a case is decided. Adrian finished third In the Southern Michigan Association pennant race last year, with Lansing and Kalamazoo tied for first place with an average of .626. Adrian's percentage was .506. Giencke pitched in 84 games, winning ib anu losing 14. In four others ho neither won nor lost, finishing up for another man. This gave him an average or .ooa. He emerged from these games with a batting average of .208. Williams still aspire to his services and has not. given up hope of getting him.

More than 100 girls took part In the exhibition, which con sisted of marching and drill work, club stvlcglng. fancy dancing by the mem bers cf her dancing class, and basket balL ' Dr. Stuart, coming from the Uni versity of Michigan last year, took charge of the department of physical training for women In, the University of Oiegon, and In the two years in which she has held this position has con-plctely reorganized it, and has built up among the women of the col lege a keen and active Interest In all branches of athletic work open to ihm something that had been to a great extent neglected before her coming. With th opening of the new mens gymnasium last Spring, the old gym nasium building was remodeled and turned over unconditionally for th use of the women of the university, who had been allowed access f th gymnasum only two days a week prior to that time. This year Dr. Stuart instituted a series of basketball game between teams from the different sororities, ar.d fully 100 candidates played In the games that were held during the sea son. This Spring the athletic work is to be carried on out of doors as much as possible by means of a series of inter-sorority and handicap tennis tour naments, whVh will give almost all the university women an opportunity for outdoor training. Three tennis courts on the campus have been given to the girls, while five others will be open to them for a limited tlnTa each day. . . in addition to actual training. Dr. Stuart has a number of classes In the theory of teaching physical culture, and many of the women of the uni versity are taking major work under her with a view toward entering posi tions as physical directors In women's schools after the completion of their college course. 7 OREGON 'tJ' PLAYS WEDNESDAY Varsity- Will Open Season Against Whitman College.
