California. 1 his team has defeated both
Berkeley and Stanford twice and has
lost so far but one game, an eleven in
ning contest with Stanford.
'I his year Kelly will have a much lar
ger squad of raw material to pick the
Oregon team from than last year and if
he is successful in developing a right
handed pitcher from among the number
who are trying for this position will
turn out a team that will be hard to
beat.
Curtis Coleman who starred last year
with Tacoma, is in Eugene and will
be out in a suit during the next two
weeks, warming up with the Oregon
squad.

SOPHS CHALLENGE ALL
THREE OTHER CLASSES
Flushed with their recent decisive vic
tory, the sophomore class has issued a
challenge for a track meet with the
other three clases combined, to be held
on Saturday, March 28th.
1 he tinal score in last Saturday’s meet
was: Sophomores 70, Freshmen 30, Jun
iors 18, and Seniors 8. This gives the
sophomores a margin of fourteen points
over the rest of the classes. With Ben
Williams, Jim Neil and Wilshire Bris
tow back in condition, the senior class
will be able to annex a larger score.
Chuc Taylor, strengthened by two weeks’
training, would be able to take several
more points in the held events. This
leaves the possible outcome of the meet
very close, with the advantage appar
ently with the seniors, juniors and fresh
men.
In the meet last Saturday Bill Neill
won first in the javelin throw instead of
second as announced, and Chas. Olson
won third place in the high hurdles.
PRES. CROOKS WILL
JUSTIFY PREACHERS
President Crooks of Albany College
will give the second of the series of
Life Work addresses that are now be
ing carried on by the Y. M. C. A.,
speaking on the Ministry as a vocation.
Considerable interest has been aroused
in this series of meetings, and the ad
dress given last Friday evening by Pres
ident Campbell w:,s appreciated by all
who attended.
President Crooks is a quiet, earnest
speaker who can always be depended
upon to give an address of interest. The
subject that lie speaks upon is one that
does not appeal to most men, but he
will doubtless justify the claims that
the ministry makes on men considering
a life work.
It is desired that the members of the
Association especially be present for this
meeting because nominations for officers
for the coming year will be made.
As usual the meeting will be called
at six-fifty and will be dismissed prompt
ly' at seven fifty or earlier.
“CAPT. LETTERBLAIR”
PROMISES SUCCESS
Smi-weekly rehearsals for “Captain
Letterblair,” the senior play which is to
be given in the Eugene Theatre on April
9. are being carried on with enthusiasm
by the members of the cast, the actors
being already nearly letter perfect in
their parts. 1 he play already shows
great posibilities, and more are unfold
ing themselves with each rehearsal. The
cast tits itself well to the characters of
the play, and there is little doubt that
they will make the most of the rich
elements of dramatic force which “Cap
tain Letterblair,” places at their dis
posal.
CAR LINE TO LINKS
MAKES GOLFERS GLAD
I he University golf players are jubi
lant over the recent action of the Eu
gene City Council in sanctioning the pro
posal construction of the street railway
line out Willamette Street to the golf
links. Construction will begin soon.
Despite the long walk to and from
the city, the course is becoming more
popular each day; and with the advan
tage of street car transportation, it is
expected that fully tit’tv per cent of the
students will become converts of the
game. \t present there are fifty two
members signed up with the club.
