CHESS ENTHUSIASTS
PLAN0 TO FORM CLUB
Faculty and “Students May Or
ganize Team to Play With, °
# Other Colleges
A meeting of the University ehess
enthusiasts will be held Monday aft
ernoon to formulate plans for a com
petitive tournament to pick a team.
The time and place of the meeting
will be posted on the Bulletin board
in Villard hall Monday morning.
At Idaho this pastime has gained
much popularity and they are now
engaged in a tryout to determine lo
cal championship and if possible will
arrange to meet teams from other
schools.
The chess teams of the eastern
universities average from two to five
players, and while it might not be
possible for financial reasons to plS$i
faraway schools, each district would
have preliminaries and teams of at
least two players to decide the
championship.
Professors Howe, Dallenbach,
Conklin and Kempthorne are all opti
mistic over the future of chess at
Oregon and “Deac” Davies has prom
ised to resurrect several student ex
perts.

Department of the University of Ore
gon will be represented by a fast
oaseball team this season. Manager
Dwyer issued a call for practice last
Sunday morning. Dwyer is hopeful
of beating last season’s record of
aine victories and two defeats. Some
of the players who will try out for
positions are Borleske, Boynton, Kel
iy, Collins, Dudley, Nording, McKen
zie, Mulligan, Lund, Magius, Hardle
and Taylor.
Whitman College, Walla Walla,
Wash., March 8.—After a four days’
practice under Coach Childers, the
Whitman College^ baseball team will
play the first game of the year when
they meet the team of recruits who
have reported to Manager Bade of the
Walla Walla Bears, at Sportsman
park Monday afternoon. More than
two teams are out now every day
and Coach Childers is rapidly whip
ping the men into shape. A three
inning game played this afternoon
showed the merits of the material,
but as yet the coach is unwilling to
make any statements except that
Whitman will figure strongly in the
race for the championship of the
conference.
London, Feb. 28.—American
Rhodes scholars were successful in
several of the events in the Oxford
University sports held here today.
F. T. Adams of Texas won the ham
mer-throwing event, with a throw of
122 feet 3 inches. V. B. Havens of
New Jersey won his heats in the hur
dles and the 100 yard flat. N. S.
Taber of Rhode Island was second
in the one-mile flat race, being five
yards behind A. N. S. Jackson, presi
dent of the Oxford University Ath
letic Association, who broke the
track record. Jackson’s time was
4 minutes 22 3-5 seconds.
New York, March 7.—Twenty-one
colleges were represented at the an
nual meeting of the Intercollegiate
Association of Amateur Athletes of
America, held here recently. Four
weeks ago several amendments to
the constitution of the association,
framed by the advisory committee in
accordance with suggestions made by
the executive committee, were made
public, and all of them were adopted
at today’s meeting. Only one ^
them—that of increasing the awards
of points to five places in each event,
instead of four, as heretofore, caused
discussion, but it was finally adopt
ed. Under the new rule the points
for places will be as follows: Five
for first, four for second, three for
third, two for fourth and one for
fifth; a total of 15 points for each
event, instead of five, three, two and
one; a total of 11 points, which has
been the rule since 1898.
One hundred and seventy men are
out for track at Stanford. There
are 37 candidates for the quarter, 28
for the half mile, 23 for the sprints,
17 for the two-mile, 15 for the mile,
13 for the broad jump, 10 for the
pole vault, 8 for the high jump and
hurdles and 13 for the weight events,
if the material is as promising in
quality as it is in quality, Stanford
will have a championship track team
year.
Portland, Ore., March 8.—The
Christmas swim, one of Portland’s
feature sport events of the winter
season, which has been held annual
ly for the past five years under the
auspices of the Multnomah Amateur
Athletic Club, has been staged for
the last time. The Board of Direc
tors of the ‘‘Winged M” Club will
probably place the taboo on the event
at one of their weekly meetings in
the near future.
It is likely that the swimmers of
the club will protest the action of
the board in tabooing the swim, but
on account of the danger of some
one drowning there is little likeli
’ hood of the event being staged again.
In its pface a swimming meet, prob
ably for city titles, will likely be
, staged during the summer months.
Hereafter the editor of the Uni
, versity of Washington Daily will be
, responsible for al articles that are
, printed in the paper, as a result of a
recent action of the University Stu
dent Affairs Committee.
