Of last year’s team Roy Peratrovich, guard, and Eldred George, forward, are the only ones on hand to claim their jobs and they are working hard. Ronald LeaSke is the most likely candidate at center although there are others who will give him plenty of com petition once they get started. Isaac Curley is one of them. Isaac Braveagle, who came here this year from Pierre, South Dakota, is the other forward who will likely be used in the first game. Isaac looks good and will fit nicely into our team if he learns how to teamwork. Clifford Meachem is the fifth man. Just at present he and Braveagle are being switched from forward to guard and from guard to forward in an ef fort to get them properly placed. Jesse Pretty man, forward, from last year, is working out, but like Curley, Levi Frank, Jesse Kipp, are among those who will not be able to get into the game until after Jan uary twenty-first. The Simmons brothers, Sam and Marcus, are both assets, but like the others are not available until January. What we lack in experience will be made up in quantity and willingness to work. Our first game will be played about the fifteenth and from then until the first of March we will average about a game a week. Unlike our football schedule, the most of our games will be played at home.

Miss Minerva Mecum, of the class of 1911, paid her alma mater a visit during the past week for the first time in seventeen years. She is now a linotype oper ator and is employed on The. Salem Statesman. She is getting along nicely in every way/' We old-timers were glad to see her. Robt. Peratrovich, a graduate of Chemawa but now a junior at the University, of Washington in Seattle, was a week-end visitor. Robert is making his grades nicely, he says, even though his course is a stiff one. He is a member of the university band and had the pleasure of a trip to California with that musical or ganization not long ago when their football team jour neyed south. He is the prossessor of a new Durant Six, which he declares to be a “ bear” on hills, and he had motored down here. Robert will most likely be here on another visit during the Christmas holi days.
