'1 he final result ot the intereollegiate games was four de feats and three victories. 1 li,is leaves Oregon in second place, her only superior being the University of Washington, which, however, jhas not as yet played enough games to gm, any certain claim to superiority. An other game was played on the trip with the Spokane club of the Northwest Pro fessional League and lost by a score of nine to nothing. Coach Kelly’s men played good ball against the leaguers, however, and won the hearts of the Spokane people by their plucky light. Clarke and Taylor both hit above live hundred on the trip and the Cap tain played sensational ball in every way. Jamison, at first base, proved himself to be the best infielder in the Conference and the whole team batted unusually well. Washington Starts .Hoodoo. I he trip began with a hoodoo game against Washington. Henkle, who had been pitching phenomenal ball at homo and who was looked upon as the hope of the Varsity had an off day and was batted out in the opening chapter. The great Southpaw lost two of his games out of four and his work in the others fell below standard. Travelling appar ently does not agree with him. I he first Washington man walked, tlie next picked a double, and then ev ery man up took his choice of passes, two and three baggers. Henkel’s mow up sent all the infield but first sky wards, the game being hopelessly lost before they got together again. Word took charge for two innings, but, as there was then no chance to recover the loss, Kelly sent Dobie in and saved Word for Friday. I he Oregon men say Washington is no better than they and promise to turn the tables on the home grounds. \ lie final score was 14 to 0. I lie Spok me team the next day wem "lit on the field to slug out a big score, but Word, far from asking mercy, kept them fairly safe.. I he boys report that a new umpire trying to make a hit with the league gave Spokane three or tour runs and was so rotten the crowd hooted him.

Steele’s illustrated lec ture on "Lake Chelan and Crater Lake” in assembly this morning. Mr. S'eele announced his purpose as that of awakening an idea of the tradi tions, possibilities and prospects of Crater Lake and of the surrounding country and the vast area drained b> the Columbia river and its tributaries. 'I his area, according to Mr. Steele, comprises a territory of about two hun dred fifty thousand square miles in which every raw product in use in the United States, except cotton, is raised; in which the value of 25,000,000 horse power is wasted annually, more than double the entire amount used in the United States. This power if utilized would outweigh the importance of the Pennsylvania coal fields and would drive sufficient factories to supply the Orient with products which now are furnished through European trade routes. Aside from the commercial advan tage of this region, however, said Mr. Steele, there is another, the import ance of which the people of Oregon do not realize. The reason for this lack of interest, acocrding to him, is the in sufficient advertisement of this wonder (Continued on last page.) TAWAHS WIN HUMOROUS GAME FROM DORM CLUB In a game replete with errors, old fashioned clouting, and wierd battmg work, the Tawah Club baseball nine took the Dormitory aggregation into camp, Mondav afternoon by the score of 13 to 7.

PULLMAN GETS NEW COACH FOR BASEBALL Pullman, April 24—F. B. Sanger, who coached the W. S. C. baseball team last year, has been elected to fill that posi tion again this spring, in place of Kien holtz, whom the regents relieved of all charge at their last meeting. The boys in the dormitory struck last week for better hoard. As a result, one of the leaders was discharged from his place in the kitchen. The boys imme diately walked out and refused to return until he was reinstated. This was done, and all trouble now appears to be over. Professor Frink gave his major stu dents a party last Friday evening.

ANOTHER BANNER GOMES OREGON WINS MEET FIFTH CONSECUTIVE TIME, BUT LOSES RELAY Kay and Hawkins Defeat Berg man in Sensational Races—Men Fight Hard for Every Point Another Oregon track team lias gone to the Columbia indoor meet and an other championship banner has been brought to the University. This time the score was 46 for the Varsity to 33 for O. A. C, the nearest competitor. But although Oregon had the lean throughout, the meet was far from a walk-away and was full 01 excumg events and surprises from first to last. In the 50-yard dash O. A. C. walked away with all three places. The Var sity came back with a vengenace in the 200-yard dash when Ersel Kay, Oregon’s fast freshman, showed his heels to the much touted Bergman in a manner that caused the O. A. C. men to gasp in dis may. Bergman was not at all satisfied with the outcome of this race, and when these two men come together in the dual meet on May 21 it is expected that the lire will fly. Sid Henderson brought joy to the hearts of the Oregon supporters by' winning the shot-put from Keck and Endberg. McClure showed up unex pectedly well in the distances. Jumper Johnson, after a few swallows of Hay ward's celebrated spring water, showed surprising form in the high jump, win ning second place with a spring of 5 feet 4 inches. In other events the Oregon stars performed in their usual manner. In the 440 Johns was an easy winner, while McDaniel, after drawing the worst place in the field, passed his twenty odd opponents and secured sec ond place. Bristow outclassed all other broad jumpers with a leap of 21 feet 2 1-2 inches. In the pole vault Williams and Sweeney proved to be too much for Burdick of O. A. C., and won the event at the easy height of 10 feet. Sweeney showed good nerve by vaulting after he hadhurt his side. The most interesting contest of the meet was the 50-yard high hurdles, in which Hawkins, of Oregon, was pitted against Bergman, of O. A. C. Both sides had claimed the victory in ad vance, and a close contest was expected. But Hawkins, for the fourth consecu tive time, defeated the Corvallis stai witli ease. Latourette pressed Berg man closely for second place. Riddell, Oregon’s premier miler, was badly out of form, but finished an easy third. This was a disappointment, for it is certain that he can beat the time made. Howtever, his teammates are still confident that he can show his heels to any miler in the Northwest. At any rate, he will have a worthy colleague in freshman McClure, who came so near to winning the mile that the judges were unable to decide the race for some time, Garrabrant did splendid work in the two-mile, running the last mile after he had been seized with a severe cramp (Continued on last page.)
