Y Activity Day
For Boys Due;
Meet Tuesday
All boys from nine to twelve
years ol age are urged to attenj
a meeting in the "Y" office in the
armory Tuesday, June 13, at 10
a.m. At this meeting it will be de
cided how often the "V activit'v,
called "Day-Camp' last year, will
be carried on.
Marlen Yoder, "Y" secretry, ex
plained that it would not be called
Day-Camp ' this year as the pro-1
gram is really mote of a exercise, i
fun, and excursion type of affair.
Yoder added that last year the
boys took excursions through the
fire hail, Coca-Coia Bottling Co.
plant, Umpqua Dairy and the
News - Review. Afterwards they
went to Umpqua park and played
different types of games. They
were told some stories by different
pastors in Hoseburg, also.
This year Yoder said croquet
would be played and probably a
tournament would be held. Several
other new activities will also be
started. In this activity the boys
usually meet at 9:30 a.m. and re
turn about 3-30 p.m. Lunches are
taken, and Yoder said more cook
ing could be done this year due to
the addition of stoves at Umpqua
park.
All boys interested in taking part
in some of these activities are
urged to be at that meeting next
Tuesday. As an added interest,
Yoder said there would be a prize
given to the boy that suggests the
name to call this activity this
summer. The boy has to attend
the meeting to give his suggestion
and receive the priie.

'Every-Othtr-iW
Eyed For Rosa Bow)
OLYMPM, June S.t.Pt-racitic
Coast conference officials may
agree to limit conference teams to
every-other-year -appearances in
the Rose Bowi.
H. P. Everest, conference presi
dent and University of Washington
faculty representative to the
PCC, said yesterday the ruling
has been discussed. It would be a
compromise with the Big Ten
which now prommts one of its
teams from appearing oltener than
once every three years.
Coast schools, fcverest said, will
have no truck with the three-yeir
rule. Some, however, favor the
two-year stipulation on grounds
that teams making consecutive
bowi appearances are inclined to
"let down" tht second year.
Everest said the PCC commit
tee which met with the Big Ten
to study renewal ot the Rose Bowl
agreement wouid report to the
PCC's spring meeting in Victoria,
