In view of many rumors of cases of contagion in Eugene, the University Health Committtee, consisting of Pro fessor 0. F. Stafford, Dr. Bertha Stu art, and Professor A. R. Sweetser, is sued tie following statement yester day: “The University Health Committee wishes to call the attention of the Student Body to the existence of a number of cases of smallpox in Eu gene. The situation is not one to cause alarm, but at the same time, everyone should exercise reasonable care in the matter of coming into con tact with strangers in street cars and public places. The committee believes that all persons at all times should have the protection secured by vacci nation, and in view of even the remote possibility of infection, those not pro tected in this way might well be vac cinated now.” VARSITY CO EDS UNITE UNDER WOMEN’S LEAGUE ELEANOR McCLAIN PRESIDENT OF NEW ORGANIZATION Meta Goldsmith and Faye Ball Chosen as Vice Presidents for Association. The women of the University, at their mass meeting Thursday after noon in Villard Hall, organized the Women’s League of the University of Oregon, the first organization of its kind in the State of Oregon. The officers elected were Eleanor McClain, of Silverton, president; Meta Goldsmith, of Eugene, first vice presi dent; Faye Ball, of Astoria, as presi dent of the Women’s Athletic Associa tion, was automatically elected second vice president. Hazel Tooze, of Sa lem, was elected secretary; Minnie Poley, of Ashland, treasurer; Evelyn Harding, of Oregon City, editor; and Ethel Van Valkenberg, sergeant-at arms. Candidates were nominated by ' a committee of the Women’s Council, under whose auspices the mass meet ing was held. Norma Dobie, of Eu gene, for president, and Meta Gold smith, also of Eugene, for secretary, were two other nominations made dur- 1 ing the meeting. Prominent Women Speak. Miss Mae Norton, as president of the Council, presided. She called upon Mrs. M. H. Parsons, Mrs. Eric W. Al len, and Miss Harriet Thompson, for 1 explanations of the work, nature and 1 character of organizations of similar leagues at Michigan and Wisconsin. These were fully explained. Mrs. Par- ' sons and Mrs. Allen confined their re marks to the moral and democratic in fluences that such organizations have, and declared that they tend to coun teract the narrowing influence that college life seems to have upon the 1 women when their activities are re stricted to a few. The operation of 1 the league at Michigan, Miss Thomp son explained in detal. To Miss Florence Cleveland, ’13, 1 fell the honor of making the motion ;hat there shall be a league in the Uni versity. The motion was put, and carried with a strong acclaim. The nominations made by the nominating committee were announced, others ■ were called for, and the election taken. Details Worked Out.

It will slip quietly iway from the campus sometime in ;he afternoon of the above mentioned lay and come back when it gets ■eady. Details * are very obscure— ‘sub-rosa,” whatever that means, is ;he word to cover the situation. With memories of the lottery dance still lingering, the members of the :lass, which is digging up $11 per for :aps and gowns, have planned a pic ric—a real rah rah sylvan repast 'that’s what one of the seniors called t) out in the real woods along the janks of a real river on a real spring ifternoon and evening, all looking for i real time. Arrangements have al ready been made for four hayracks vith four horses to each to spirit the :lass away.

OREGON DOWNS WILLAMETTE IN FAST GAME BT SCORE OF 3-0 BAIL REFUSED IN CASE OF CITY OF EUGENE VS FATIMA ET AL Sigma Chi Mascot, Impounded by Dog Catcher, Will Stay Until $5.00 is Paid. Fatima, the Sigma Chi mascot, is in the city “pound,” the place where lit tle doggies go that have no collars, and for whose keeping no license has been paid. For two whole days he has been in carcerated with other beasts that can’t boast of such a pedigree and name. F'ive dollars is the amount required to obtain his release, and in the ab sence of that sum, all of the fraterni ty’s efforts to even bail him out have been futile. The University of Washington Won the crew championship of the Pacific Coast by defeating both California and Stanford on San Francisco Bay last week. The Washington shell fin ished about twelve lengths ahead of Stanford who second place. dougIueh PLAY TWO THRILLERS AltNY SAVES SICMA NU HIDES FROM PHI DEBT’S Dorm and Kappa Sig Hand Out Com edy of Errors and Call it Tie Game. (By J. Ward Arney.) Shakespeare never staged a better Comedy of Errors than did the Dough nuts when they presented to Univer sity fandom the Dorm-Kappa Sig skit. From curtain to curtain it was a wierd mixture of boneheads, boots, and freak plays. After seven innings of baseball that would bring tears to the eyes of a wooden Indian, Umpire Shockley called time, with the score even up at 7-7. Ken Reed was the whole Dorm team, stricking out 13 Balognies and nailing two of his ream’s six hits. Anson Cornell was on the rubber for the Kappas and aside from a strong tendency to poke the ball in some one’s ribs, threw a nice game, deserv ing to win with proper support in view of the Dorm’s slips. The game will be played to a finish in the near Future. Getting away in the opener with a lead of four runs, the Phi Delt’s seemed to have copped the woolen be longing to the Sigma Nu’s in the second game of the morning, but the under-dogs fought out of the hole, winding up the contest with a squeeze hit by Arney that brought the total to five runs. “Ivory” Miller and “Sky-line” Speck took the leading roles, the lat ter suffering from a fearful case of lapsus noodle in the initial frame that should have spelled defeat for his teammates, but like all interfrat games, there’s many a slip ’twixt cup and lip. Hughes, Chandler and Wal ker starred. MANY OREGON STUDENTS TO ATTEND BEACH CONFERENCE Six Oregon students have signified their intentions of attending the Stu dent’s Conference of the Young Men’s Christian Association at Columbia Beach next June from the fourteenth to the twenty-second.

These conferences are annual affairs and are always held at Columbia Beach. ANUNSEN AND BIGBEE FEA TURE IN STONEWALL INFIELD OF VARSITY BIGBEE ALLOWS BUT 3 HITS Chandler, IVlctschenbacher, and L. Bigbee Hit Drake for Singles. (By J. Ward Arney.) Zip! Boom! Bang! Everybody was doing it! They all picked out their favorite pet shilalah, took a big healthy crack ait the ball and the scorer marked down an assist and an out. From start to finish the game was full of hard hitting, very little of it being of the safe vdriety, and fast snappy fielding, and although it was the Varsity’s game all the way, yet it never bordered on the lop-sided, as the final score of 3-0 shows. Neither Drake nor Bigbee, the rival slabsters, disposed of a record num ber via the strikeout route, but both were hard to hit in the pinches. Drake allowing the wearers o’ the green four bingles, while Bigbee yielded but three to the swings of the Salemites. Drake, however, was generous with his issuance of free transportation, passing five men, two of these figur ing in the scoring. l«ood Yielding Exhibited. Both teams put up wonderful field ing exhibitions, nearly every out be ing gained by corraling a hard driven ground or fly ball. The speed ait which that Oregon infield is traveling promises a stone wall defence to back up Messrs. Bigbee, Welch and Tuerck. A one-handed ^pear of a line drive, by which Buck Bigbee retired the side in the second inning and Anunsen’s stellar stop in the eight frame fur nished the features. Oregon scored in the first inning when, after Cornell had succumbed to the wiles of three twists, Mount worked Drake for a walk, annexed second a la Jimmy Valentine, and counted on Chandler's drive into right. The captain then emulated “Beany’s” example by stealing second, but died there, Fenton and “Buck” grounding out. In the second inning, Drake stuck a fast one in Anunsen’s ribs, Dutch going to first. Billings forced him aft second by a fielder’s choice and scored a moment later on a single by Mot sehenbacher and an error by Lund, the husky backstop following him in on Lyle Bigbee’s sharp drive for a safety. Umpire (lets Roast. Only once did Willamette reach as far as third and then a decision of the raw order robbed them of this ad vantage and the possibility of scoring, the Umps deciding that McRae, who (Contined on last page.) OREGANA IN TWO WEEKS Editing of Year Book Finished and Copy in Hands of Printer. “My part of the work on the 1914 Oregana is now complete," said Editor Don Rice yesterday. “All that re mains now for the completion of the book is some of the advertising. However, the book will be out by Jun ior Week-End.” The 1914 Oregana contains over two thousand cuts, which are printed on a lighter paper than that used in last year’s Oregana, but of better quality for half tone work. The bopk is printed throughout in brown and green ink. The cover is different from any ever used before, being of new black leather. All of the work was done in Eu gene with the exception of the cuts.
