UNIVERSITY OF OREGON
VOL. XII.
EUGENE, OREGON, WEDNESDAY, MAY 3. 1911.
No. 50.
6__0 IS BRIEF TALE OF TODAY'S
’VARSITY BASEBALL
VICTORY.
JAMISON FITCHES SHOT OUT BULL
Only Once Did the Visitors Reach
Third Base with Chance
of Scoring.
Oregon 6. W. S. C. 0, briefly
tells the story of this afternoon’s
baseball game.
Homer Jamison was called in from
first base' to the pitcher’s box and
not only pitched shut-out ball but
held the visitors who have a league
wide reputation as batting phenoms
to 4 hits and kept any of them from
reaching third base.
The score board presented a series
of zeros until Oregon opened up the
jack pot in the lucky seventh. Beany
Mount made first on an error, stole
second and made third on Taylor’s
clean single. He scored on Annusen’s
hit as did Captain “Chuck”. An
nusen came home with the third run
a moment later when Schweitzer, the
W. S. C. outfield left field threw
wildly.
In the eighth, Ben Chandler beat
out a bunt, stole second and scored
on a hit by Word, who by the way
picked up everything around second.
Tommy scored on Taylor’s slow one.
The latter stole second and third
and scored a minute later on a bad
throw.
Pllman’s forlorn hope came in the
ninth when one of the visitors reached
third with two down. Jamie, how
ever, blanked the batter and all was
over.
Considering the conditions of the
field and the inclement weather the
game -was remarkably fast and free
from error.
Hits: Off Jamison, 4; off Patten, 6.
STUDENT BODY DANCE
AN ENJOYABLE AFFAIR
ere have been many dances more
an a iciously designed and more elab
01 j dy carried out, but for a genial
crowd and a general good time, the
■ student body dance given last
S; : 'day evening in the men’s gym.
will for some time be remembered
as very pleasant affair.
Kennedy, with his cohorts, had
’ or in splendid condition and the
U: complaint of sticky floor was
U] ' "d. The music was poor but
11 punch was good and kept the
taste out of one’s mouth.
Mrs. Prescott, Mrs. Pennell, Mrs.
1 hell and Mrs. Stearns acted as
messes to one of the most enjoy
parties the student body has
given.

Missionary Athletes Gave up Spring
Vacation lo Work Out Twice
A Day on Track.
While the Oregon athletes were in
California taking part in the All
Coast meet the Whitman track men
made hay during the brief respite of
sunshine and passed up their spring
vacation to train for the meets with
Oregon and 0. A. C. The greater
part of their track team remained
over and hit the cinders twice a day
under the watchful eye of Coach
Tilly.
The Whitman paper quotes Trainer
Tilly as reporting his men in excel
lent shape for their trip and expect
ing to spring some surprises upon
the Oregonians. Their first appear
ance will be on Kincaid field next
Saturday and as there are no records
so far this year their strength is
more or less an unknown quantity.
Bill, with his customary reticence,
declines to say just what he expects
the Oregon men to do with the Wash
ingtonians and says “Come out and
see the meet. You don’t know what
Oregon can do yet this is their first
appearence at home this year, and
it is the only chance to get a line
on the men and to find out what they
will do in the Tri state.”
Many Are Called But Few Chosen
to Join Co-Ed Tennis Club—
Another Tryout
Only three names of the ten who
tried out for the Girls’ Tennis Club
were submitted to the club for ap
proval at the meeting held Tuesday
at 4 p. m. in Prof. DeCou’s class
room. The successful ones were
Norma Graves, Frances Adams and
Hazel Rader.
A second tryout will be held the
Monday and Tuesday following Jun
ior Week End. Those wishing to
enter at this time, including those
who failed to meet the requirements
of the first tryout, are invited to
sign the schedule for practice posted
on the door of Miss Perkins’ class
room.
A Beginners’ Tournament will be
pulled off in about two weeks for
which the Tennis Club offers a silver
trophy cup. This tournament will be
open to any girl in college not in the
club.

individual photographs of the entire
Junior Class which is publishing the
volume. All the college clubs and
organizations are well represented,
especial attention being paid to the
allied colleges of the University lo
cated in Portland.
The book was printed and b #und
by the Portland Printing House and
due to the haste with which the
printing was done, some of the cuts
are hardly up to standard but this
is a small detrcaction and does not
figure in the general attractiveness.
Editor Chester Moores, Manager
Wendell Barbour, and the efficient
staff particularly and the whole
Junior Class generally are to be con
gratulated upon the early appearance
of a book so well qualified to repre
sent the University of Oregon.
Will C. Hurn, ex-’13, and Miss
Greta Maude Williams were married
at Klamath Falls recently. Mr. Hurn
who is a member of the local chapter
of the Alpha Tau Omega fraternity,
is engaged in business with his fath
er at Klamath Falls.
