CHANDLER KNOCKS HOMER
Game Is Wierd and Uninteresting—
W. S. C. Winner in Eastern
Division.
CORVALLIS, Ore., May 24.—(Spe
cial to the Emerald by J. Ward Ar
ney.)—By bombarding Welch for 13
solid hits and taking advantage of
Oregon’s four errors, O. A. C. won
today from Oregon in a wierd feature
less game. Welch had nothing on his
fast ball, and no control of his curves,
passing four men and allowing 13
hits. Culver pitched a nice game, his
teammates’ errors allowing Oregon’s
scores.
O. A. C. took the lead in the open
ing frame, when Smith and Shaw hit,
and were advanced when Loof was hit
by a pitched ball. Robins tripled,
scoring all three runs. Oregon tied
the score in the second inning on a
hit and three errors.
In the fifth O. A. C. drew two more,
the result of two errors and a base on
balls.
Oregon counted one in the fifth,
Chandler hitting and stealing and
scoring on Cornell’s safety.
Hits by Smith, Robins, Glazier, and
Bobel’s triple resulted in four runs in
the sixth, while five hits and base on
balls added five in the eighth.
Culver blanked Oregon until the
ninth, when with two men down,
Chandler rode one for a homer.

SOMMERS MAKES MISTAKE IN
DOSING PTOMAINE SDFFERERS
Acting Role of Samaritan, Freshman
Gives Castor Oil to Sick and
Well Alike.
Even if a man is a hero in times of
trial, he will sometimes make mis
takes.
Max Somers, the Freshman who
rendered “first aid to the poisoned”
during the ptomaine scare at the Dor
mitory, demonstrated this Thursday
night, although his intentions were
good.
Sommers, in the midst of the melee,
while on his good Samaritan trips with
various black bottles, found Elliot
Roberts, who does not board at the
Dorm, peacefully asleep in his room.
Presumably thinking him already
started on his “long sleep,” Sommers
wakened him with, “Here, take this!”
Down went castor oil, ginger tea, and
the et cetera; then Roberts recovered
his breath long enough to gasp, “What
for?”
“Aren’t you sick?” was the query.
“No, you boob,—get out!”

State Secretary Guy Needham, Dr. H.
B. Leonard, and Others, Speak
“After Dinner.”
Forty members of the University
Y. M. C. A. enjoyed a stag picnic
across the river on the lagoon yester
day afternoon. The boys left The
Shack at 4 o’clock, and spent the aft
ernoon in canoeing and swimming.
Four exciting races were held. The
first race was a double canoe race,
which resulted in a tie between Chas.
Collier and Lewis Bond, and Bill Hol
den and Don Pague. The prize of
four bars of Hershey’s was divided
among the two winning couples. Dean
Peterson took first in the single canoe
race and received the prize of two bars
of Hershey's. The second prize of
one bar was awarded to Bill Holden.
The feature of the day was a canoe
race in which the participants were
allowed no paddles, but had to use
their hands to propel themselves. Ed.
Bailey and Andy Collier repeatedly
tied for first place with Allie Grout

OREGON SECOND TEAM TIES WITH ROSEDORG
4-4- WARD ARNEY INJURES ARM IN TENTH
A tie game, 4-4, at the end of the
eleventh inning, when time was called
for dinner, was the result of the con
test between the University Second
Team and Roseburg, during the straw
berry festival in that city Thursday.
In the first inning, Hughes hit and
stole second, and third on Dobie’s sac
rifice. Arney reached first on a bunt,
scoring Hughes. Arney stole second,
went to third on a passed ball. Gor
man struck out, Arney stole home, and
Billings was out on first.
No more scoring was done until the
fifth, when Oregon squeezed m a tally
on Roseburg’s wild throwing. Oregon
in turn came through with a bunch of
errors, and Roseburg tied the score.
In the eleventh, with Tuerck on sec
ond, Hughes’ hit to the infield, which
was booted, and Tuerck reached home.
Tuerck eased up in the final half, and
Oregon’s errors filled the sacks.
Roseburg scored on hit to right field.
J. Pluv. Arney sustained the only
injury of the contest, a dislocated left
arm, with torn ligaments. Arney,
playing short, was covering second,
and his arm stretched out to stop a
wild throw, was severely jolted by
the runner stealing from first.
“Kaiser” Wilhelm was drafted by
the Roseburg bunch to play against
the O. A. C. Fresnmen yesterday
morning. Wilhelm made a hit with
the locals on account of his stick
work.
The team reports a first class time,
with plenty of free strawberries and
ten cent dances.

OREGON EASILY WINS DUAL
MEET WITH AGGIES TODAY
EIGHT EVENTS RUN OFF GIVE
THE UNIVERSITY A
LEAD OF 54
TO 14
QUARTER IS RUN TWICE
Walters Fouls McConnell—Aggies
Dispute, but Windnagle and Mc
Connell Again Best Him.
With eight events finished and the
score standing 54 to 14 in the favor
of the University the result of the
dual track meet with O. A. C. this
afternoon is no longer in doubt. Or
egon is taking everything in sight
at the time of going to press, but the
high wind which is blowing makes
records impossible.
The hundred yard dash, which was
run in the fast time of 9:4 was down
hill and with the wfnd.
Windnagle’s Performance Remarkable
The performance of Windnagle in
the half and in the quarter, which he
ran twice, for this race was rerun on
account of a disputed foul, was re
markable.
Walters Fouls McConnell
Oregon rooters showed remarkable
sportsmanship over the disputed foul
in the quarter-mile Irace. In (this
Windnagle took a ten-yard lead over
Walters on the far side. McConnell
had also passed Walters by two yards,
when Walters closed in, seized Mc
Connell by the hair, and threw him
to the ground while running at a fast
rate. The Aggies make the excuse
that McConnell had been put in the
race to deliberately box Walters, and
demanded that the race be rerun. To

BATH HOUSES 10 BE
BUILT ON MEL RAGE
Paul Bond la Installing Complete
Swimming Equipment Opposite
University.
Bath houses by the mill race is the
latest in water sports. Paul Bond an
nounces that he will build a bath
house for men just below the boat
house, and one for women about 200
feet down stream, where there is a
sand bar and where the girls may eas
ily learn to swim because of a grad
ually sloping shallow bottom.
The shore will be cleared of brush
and a walk made along the bank. At
the boathouse there is fifteen feet of
water, which will be cleared of snags.
A diving ladder, twenty-two feet high
will be erected at the corner of the
boathouse for the use of high divers
and later a “shoot the shutes” will
be put in. Spring boards are also
part of the equipment.
Dirt t<i fill up the depression and
make a good foundation for the bath
houses is already being hauled. The
houses will be constructed with tent
tops at first, but if the project pays,
more permanent structures will be
built and better fixtures will be put
in.
The girl’s bathhouse will be made
with compartments and lockers. The
boy’s house will have one large dress
ing room and lockers. Bathing suits
and lockers will be for rent. It is the
intention to have the houses ready for
use before Commencement.
MRS. E. H. PARSONS
IS AGAIN PRESIDENT
Eflie Rhodes, Mae Norton, Miss Up.
legger, and Flora Dunham
Receive Offices.
Officers for next year were elected
at the meeting of the Agora Club held
in the Library Building last Thursday
evening.
Those elected were: President, Mrs.
E. H. Parsons; vice president, Effie
Rhodes; recording secretary, Mae
Norton; corresponding secretary, Miss
Margaret Uplegger, and member-at
large, Flora Dunham.
This was the last meeting of the
Agora Club for this year.
The Agora Club was founded No
vember 21, 1912, immediately after the
passing of the Women’s Suffrage Bill
in Oregon. Its purpose is to educate
the women in their new rights as
voters, and to this end numerous
speakers have addressed them at
times in regard to work along political
and governmental lines.
When told of the plans, Dr. Bertha
Stuart said that it would be too late
to use the opportunity for instructing
the girls in swimming this semester,
but if the project is a success, a
swimming course might be started in
the fall. Canoeing under the direction
of Miss Thompson has been practiced
for some time, but so far no attempt
has been made to make canoeing
safer by teaching the girls to swim.
CO-EDS DEFEAT WASHINGTON IN
DEBATE BY UNANIMOUS DECISION
BARTENDERS DO NOT COMPOSE
FRISCO BAR ASSOCIATION
Professor Allen Berates Unsophisti
cated Students for Confusion of
Terms in Story.
"A Bar Association is Not com
posed of bartenders. A student, 18 or
20 years of age, who does not know
that, will probably never make a
newspaperman. I don’t know what he
will make!” This information was
bulletined for the information of the
one o’clock class in Journalism Friday
and expresses Professor Allen's opin
ion of the mental development of cer
tain of his students.
Wednesday the budding Watterson’s
were required to write up a news item
in which “The churches of San Fran
cisco, supported by the Bar Associa
tion, had invoked the recall on Police
Judge Weller. Some of the “dry”
members of the class were undecided
as to the exact relation of the Bar
Association to the saloon question,
and the criticism of the journalism in
structor was the result.

IN FOUR YEARS OREGON WOMEN
NOW BREAK EVEN WITH
WASHINGTON
TEAMS
0. HASN’T LOST THIS YEAR
Four Victories Give Oregon Complete
Championship of Western
States.
Oregon debaters were victorious for
the fourth time this year, in Villard
Hall last night, this time by the un
animous defeat of the women repres
enting the University of Washington
in the fourth annual Co-ed debate held
with the Northerners.
Upholding the negative of the ques
tion, “Resolved, That the Immigration
to the United States of Unskilled La
borers of the New Immigration, as
Classified by the Immigration Com
mission, Should be Prohibited,” the
three Co-ed debaters, coached by Bert
Prescott, who has made an enviable
record as a debate coach this year, met
every contention of their opponents,
and established their case that the ac
tion advocated was too drastic.
To exclude entirely all peoples from
Southern Europe would be to keep out
many worthy of citizenship, an act for
which there is no economic justifica
tion. The negative claimed that low
wages and standards of living were
not alone caused by the immigrants,
but by contributing causes as well.
The affirmative based their argu
ment upon the over supply of labor
that exists today, and the effect that
they have upon social conditions.
Representing the University of Ore
gon were Miss Beatrice Littlefield, of
Elgin, Miss Aldous Oberholtzer, of
Spokane, and Miss Cecil Sawyer, of
Brownsville. For the University of
Washington, Miss Marguerite Cook, of
Aberdeen, Miss Lois McBride, and
Miss Bertha Banks, of Seattle, spoke.
Dalzell King, a member of the men’s
negative debating team of the Univer
sity, presided.
The judges were Robert Aiken, of
Salem, Professor Horner, of the Ore
gon Agricultural College, and Dr.
William Parsons, of Eugene.
