LEADS IN FIFTH Score 2 to 1 in Fifth Inning, Though Still Any One’s Game Many Errors Made. In the fifth inning Coach Lynch’s men are leading the Muscovites 2 to 1. Jamison is pitching for Oregon Robinson for Idaho. Idaho began in the first and by an error, stolen base and passed ball, scored once. In the third Roberts and Jamison scored on a bunt, an error and an other bunt by Chandler. The game is not as well played as recent Varsity contests though it is an exciting one and is being thor oughly enjoyed by the large crowd present. Up to date two hits have been made off both pitchers. The 0. A. C. track team defeated Whitman by a slight margin of four points. CANOE CARNIVAL PLANS TAKING DEFINITE SHAPE EUGENE BUSINESS MEN HAVE BEEN LIBERAL IN CON TRIBUTING PRIZES COLD WATER FORRIDS SOME EVENTS Others Have Been Substituted How ever, and Everything Points to Successful Regatta The long, continued inclement weather has made necessary a few changes in the program of events for the Canoe Carnival, but other wise arrangements are complete and every indication points to this new event being one of the most success ful in the whole Week-End program. Due to the cold water, it has been found inadvisable to schedule the events requiring long immersion in the mill race and for the mile swim and for the water polo and baseball have been substituted three events which are expected to prove equally interesting. These are high and fan cy diving contests and two short ca noe races. One of these races will be for men’s teams, distance 600 yards, and the other will be a mixed double race, 600 yards. The courses for both these, as for the ladies’ double, will be 600 yards. They will start at the judges’ stand, go down stream, turn in the slow water above the headgates and finish at the start ing point. Spectators will thus be enabled to see both the start and the finish. The prize for winning any event will be either a silver trophy cup or prize equivalent to $5.00 or more. This has been made possible by the generosity of the Eugene business men and Commercial Club. In addi tion to the six silver trophy cups prviously announced, the Eugene Commercial Club will donate $10.00, the Promotion Department, $5.00, and Mr. M. J. Duryea, president of the former organization, $5.00, individu ally. To absolve the winners from all charge of professionalism, this money will be in the shape of $5.00 orders on the local merchants. In addition, McMorran & Washburne will give a beautiful Indian robe. The complete lists of events and prizes is as follows: Tipping contest, $5 prize. Men’s doubles, race, cup. Men’s doubles, dash, GOO yards, cup. Women’s doubles, 600 yards, cup. Mixed doubles, 600 yards, $5 prize. Tilting contest, cup. Tub race, between classes, cup. Best decorated class float, cup. Best decorated bouse float, cup. Best decorated individual boat, $5 prize. 100 yard swim, $5 prize. Diving contests, $5 prize. Lances for the tilting contest must be provided. They must not exceed ten feet in length and must be gen erously padded to avoid possibility of injury and to pass the inspection of “Hippo” Gillis, who will be general referee of the contests. Provided that insufficient entries, are made in any event, the committee reserves the right to cancel the con-1 test. Entries must be made by Thurs- I day evening either to the committee by application or when the committee calls on the various houses. The morning events will begin at 9:30. The evening pageant at 8:15.1 Provision is being made to provide, VARSITY WOMEN MAKE BIG PREPARATIONS FOR PAPER The Women’s Edition of the Emer ald will be out Saturday evening at six o’clock. It will be an eighteen paged issue, and will cover more par ticularly all the interests of the wom en of the University.

Various departments—athletics, so ciety, editorials—will be in charge of the assistant editors, and will be giv en greater space than is usual. ONLY WAIT FOR CURTAIN “At Yale’’ Cast Promises to Produce College Play Second to None Next Thursday “At Yale” is ready and will be pre sented tomorrow evening at the Eu gene theatre to the students and their friends for criticism. The plot centers about a boat race between Yale and Harvard and the efforts of a commercially minded stu dent to make a “killing” on bets by keeping the Yale captain from enter ing the race. It contains many com plex and exciting scenes and the Dra matic Club is confident that it can meet the requirements of the play to the satisfaction of the most critical. The seat sale opened this morning and indicates the attendance of a large audience. The seats sell for $.50, $.75 and $1.00. The cast of principal characters is as follows: Dick Seely .Donald Lamm Mr. Clayton Randall .Wm. Beals Jack Randall .Harold Warner Dave Burley .Charles Robison Jimsey .

Miss Flora Dunham is at her Port land home with a slight indisposition. MAY NUMBER GOOD ONE Collins Outdoes Himself in Expiring Effort for His Last Issue of Magazine. The last issue of the Oregon Mon thly will be out in about two weeks, and will furnish a fitting climax to a highly successful volume. The mill race and the campus in their romantic aspect form the setting of all the features of the magazine, from the cover design by Lucile Abrams to the poetical triumphs of Dean Col lins; from ,Walter Bailey’s tribute to the late Midnight Doughnut” to Bar-: zee’s Abbreviated Biographies, the j closing number of Volume XIV em bodies the sentiment that is reflected from the Oregon Spirit borne away by the departing alumni. seating for any number on the bank of the race immediately below the en gineering building.
