On the whole successful, but un
fortunate in that luck seemed against
the team just when things should have
gone their way, was the annual Inland
Tmpire trip just concluded by the Ore
gon baseball team. '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.

CRATER LAKE NATIONAL
WONDER SAYS STEELE
Well Known Mazama Lecturer
Speaks To Students in As
sembly This Morning
l hat the splendors of Crater Lake
are magnificent enough to be of nation
al interest and that their obsecurity is
the result of retarded connection with
the outside world was the general
trend of Will C. 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

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. The game was played in a drizzling
rain which accoums lor the lack of sen
sational fielding and juggling stums
which have predominated in all the oth
er games of the Doughnut League. Fea
tures of the game were the pitchmg or

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.
FIRST STUDENT BODY
DANCE SET FOR FRIDAY
Will Probably Be Only Monthly
Dance Held by Students
This Year
The tirst of the informal student body
dances will be held in the gymnasium on
Friday night, April 29th. Because <d
the short time remaining, and other j
conflicting events, this will probably ,a.
the only monthly dance held this year,
but next year it is the aim of the stu
dent body to hold these parties regu
larly.
1 he dance Friday night is expected
to inaugurate in an appropriate manner
the long looked forward to events. A
committee has been appointed by Man -
ager Fortmiller to arrange for the re
ception of the guests. The gymnasium
floor will be in as nearly perfect con
dition as time and labor will permit.
I he grand march will start promptly
at 8:30 o’clock lead by Pres. Ben Wil
liams of the student body. To meet ex
penses 50 cents per couple will be the
charge at the door.
I he following ladies will act as patron
esses :
Mrs. VanZoll Clarke, Mrs. Wm. Hay
ward, Mrs. Ray Goodrich, Mrs. Allen
Eaton.
TENNIS TRYOUTS TO
BEGIN IMMEDIATELY
No Handicap Tournament Will
Be Held Because of Lack
of Time
The tryouts for the tennis team will
commence immediately on account of
the nearness of the conference tourna
ment, May 27th and 28th. I here will
be three preliminary tournaments. The
winner of these, together with the Var
sity men now in college, four in all, will
play a round-robin tournament to de
cide the team.
I he team this year will be composed
of two men, the singles representative
playing in the doubles. Drawings for
the lirst tournament will be held Thurs
day night, April 28th. Entries can be

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
