An amend ment to the constitution was passed re quiring the words to he counted by the member of the executive committee from each college, the exact number to be written by him across the top of the first page. And it was specifically pro vided in the amendment that lie should count "little words”—“A's and “the’s.” I he trouble w is caused by the mis take of H. J. Rounds, the Oregon ora tor, in failing to count these words in his oration, in consequence of which, it was about one hundred words over the limit. The constitution provides that one per cent shall lie deducted for each additional word. Had this pen alty been enforced, the best place he could have received would' have been fourth. What saved Rounds was that three of the other orators had made the same mistake, and a majority of the execu tive committee were in favor of sus pending the rule. The delegates fol lowed this recommendation and allowed all the contestants to go in as the judges had already marked them. 1 bis action brought forth violent op position from McMinnville and Pacific Colleges, whose delegates insisted that some penalty be imposed. Inadvertent ly, however, Roy Fitch of Pacific Col lege, the secretary in whose hands the orations had been placed prior to their submission to the judges, admitted that their representative had also exceeded the limit, but that he had allowed her to revise her oration. Curiously enough, too, the final position of these two col leges,, the one first and the other next to last, would not have been changed if the penalty had been imposed. An amendment was also proposed by Oregon to have one committee of judges instead of two; but it was summarily voted down. The bitterness engendered y the previous altercation was largely responsible for this. 'I his amendmen was voted down last year the same way. O. A. C., Pacific University and Ore gon favored it. OREGON LOSES LAST GAME WITH 0. A. G. Through superior basket shooting hbility, the O. A. C. team won from Or egon in a clean, fast game, on the Cor vallis floor last Saturday night. The fact that the Agrics were far surer of of hitting baskets than the Oregon men recounts for the difference in the score; for the University team displayed con sisten team work and had fully as many chances at baskets. I he game was fast and remarkably free from roughness, very few fouls being called on either side. The Oregon men were treated with courtesy through out their entire stay in Corvallis, and the best of feeling prevailed. For Corvallis. Reed played star ball, while for Oregon, Jamison, Walker and Klliott did the finest work. Friday night the University team will play the high school basket tossers at the dedication of the town Y. M. C. A. building. The expected game with Wil lamette has been cancelled, so that game will probably be the last of the year. There is a chance, however, for a game with Ashland in that city some time next week.
