Tlie hig All-Coast meet is dead ahead.
In a short two weeks, Trainer May
ward’s proteges will be defending the
Oregon colors aginst the best athletes
the whole Pacific Coast can produce.
This meet is a big thing, by far the
most important event on our schedule,
for, though some of our meets may he
of more local consequence, it is this
California meet which is coming to he
taken as the true criterion of the dif
ferent colleges’ athletic strength. In
it we are under serious and unavoida
ble handicap, due to material condi
tions, such as our late training season
and our great distance from the seat of
events, hut (lie other Northwest col
leges are entering, and unless we are
willing to confess ourselves outclassed,
we must he represented.
Py the very nature of the Oregon
spirit, participation in any event im
plies that we acquit ourselves with cred
it. To do this we must offset our nat
ural handicap by the intensity of our
efforts. We must compensate for the
size of our college by greater individ
ual effort and interest.
I his means that each and all of us
must pay more attention to spring ath
letics and make their interests our con
cern.
I hose who arc in the fraternity hous
es ran help materially hy seeing .hat
all the available material turns out and
sticks to training jurseveringly. Also
the fraternities can help hy seeing that
training rules are strictly observed.
Training that lapses as soon as the
trainer’s eye is turned avails little, and
though the numbers of trained athletes
can testify that Bill’s eye is sharp, be can
not be watching them all at the same
time. ’I hey should help him out and in
sist on a strict observance of training
rules
We will not win the All-Toast meet,
and probably will not even take see
oml place, but Captain Hawkins’ men
are in good sh me—better than usn d.
Bill says—and re certain to make a
creditable showing Otherwise we had
better withdraw as a tacit ackno vledg
nient that we are outclassed—but that
isn’t the Oregon way.
1 be subtle intricacies of feminine log
ic are always difficult for the mere mas
culine mind to fathom, but they tire
rendered doubly obscure when the worn
on in a co-education;il college go so far
as to exclude the men from such exer
cises as 1 Imrsday’s gymnasium drill.
I'he strong stock argument feu- co-edu
cation has always been that it makes it
possible for men and women to mingle
on the same intellectual plane, in a
spirit of good fellowship and cotnrad
eric \\ lien the women draw the sex
line so strictly, it is equivalent to a
tacit acknowledgment that the theory of
co education is impossible, and that the
sexes should he segregated in colleges
To he consistent, the women should ta
boo men’s basketball games and track
meets.
Oh. Inconsistency, tin name is Wo
man !
The Kappa \lplia Thetas are to be
to be commended upon their resolve
to interdict carriages tit their party this
evening A word from a woman is a
most powerful aid to any reform, and
a stand like this, by several of the
stronger sororities, would completely
overthrow a custom which is helping
to divide the students into classes based
upon financial ratings.
GERMAN CLUeTpRESENTS
SKETCH TUESDAY NIGHT
The German Club will present the
one-act comedy, “Gunstige Verzuchen,”
in Villard Hall next Tuesday evening.
Miss Naomi Williamson, of dramatic
fame, has the part of Brunhilde, niece
of Rillberg (Alfred Skei). Miss Mabel
Zimmerman will appear as Karoline,
Rillberg’s daughter, and Mr. Fowler as
Holdhaus, suitor for the hand of Brun
hilde.
The plot hinges upon a case of mis
taken identity. Difficulties are added by
the stern nature of the father, Rillberg,
who refuses to let his daughter marry
a poor suitor. Misunderstandings cause
comical situations throughout the play
All interested in German, in the town
as well as in the University, are cordiall
ly invited. No admission fee will he
charged.
STUDENTS FIGHT OVER
CO-ED—NEITHER WINS
Philadelphia, Apr. 3.—(Special) —
After a quarrel, supposedly about a
young woman, two University of Penn
sylvania dental students fought for half
an hour in the dormitory triangle, and
after pounding each other most ener
getically were interrupted by a proctor.
Neither being satisfied with the re
sult of the fight, they arranged to con
tinue it on Franklin field under “rough
and tumble” rules.
Charles Ruddy, 23 years old, of Brook
lyn, and William Roache, 23 years old,
of Newcastle, Pa., were the combatants,
and though the former is small and the
latter is a six-footer, Rudyd was getting
the better of the fight when the proctor
arrived. The name of the girl is not
public today.
