TENNIS OUTLOOK BRIGHT
Eitrance Requirements to Club for
Women Stricter; But Twelve
Qualify.
The tennis outlook for the women this
yenr is 'brighter than It has been for some
tii,ne in the history of the University. In
spite of the fact that the requirements
fop entranco into the tennis club are
stricter this year than they have ever
been, twelve people have qualified so far.
Tlie members are Roberta Killam, pres
ident; Frances Baker, secretary; Adri-|
nee hipping, manager; Charley Fenton,
advisory member; Echo Znhl, Vivian
Pallett, Carolyn Alexander, Dorothy
Wheeler, Mary Murdock, Gladys Conk
lin, Helen McCornack and Mary Cham
bers.
Roberta Killam, Adrienne Kpplng and
Frances Baker liuvo all won tennis titles
before coming to the University, Miss
Killam having played on the Portland
Washington high school tennis team for
the last two years, Mms lipping during
high school having held the singles
championship of the mid-Columbia basin
for two years and the doubles champion-!
ship jointly with Miss Baker. Miss Ep- j
ping and Miss Baker were also the ten
niil team of last year.
In speaking of the tennis outlook for
this yenr, Alias Killam says, “The inter- j
eaf, taken in tennis by the women is more j
keen this year than usual. Tennis should j
be, the most important spring sport for
giils and it is gradually coming into its
own. I want to thank especially the
men, though, for letting the girls play
on the cement court. It is theirs by
rights, but they have been terribly nice
about letting us practice on it and giving
it up to us for tournameuts."
The tenuis tournament for the cham
pionship began this week. Schedules of
the tournament have been posted on the
tennis court, in the library, and in the
women's gym. All the women are urged
to get their preliminary matches played
off by Monday.
UNIVERSITY 01- MICHIGAN
The student council at Michigan has
decreed that no more college “pasters”
shall he attached to suitcases or other
baggage, giving us a reason that such
practice is not in accordance with pres
ent day ethics.

BUILDING PROGRESSES
_i
Construction Work on New School of
Extension Building Shows
Plumbing Nearly Done.
The new University of Oregon build
ing which has been under construction
on the Oregon campus for the past week,
will house the Education and extension
departments next September when the
University opens for the 1016-17 season.
At the present tiine Prof. H. D. Sheldon,
dean of the education department, holds
his classes in the library building, and
other educational classes meet at avail
able rooms in different buildings on the
campus. Next year the whole depart
ment will he conveniently quartered in
the new building. The extension school
which now occpies the small wooden
building at the1 back of McClure hull,
lias long needed more room for expan
sion than the present crowded quarters
permit.
At the present time the concrete base
of the building only lias been constructed,
with a force of eighteen or twenty work
men, excavating, mixing concrete, and
putting it into the forms. When com
pleted, the building will be three stories
high and of red brick and terra cotta.
The cost of construction, without fur
nishings or connections with the heating
plant, will about reach $41,000, according
to the estimate of O. It. Dean, local rep
resenative of Lawrence & llolford,
Portland architects, who made the plans
for the building. 1 The total cost is ex
pected to be $50,000, and the building
will he completed by the first of Septem
ber.
NEW LIGHTING AT LIBRARY
Brascolite System Costs Less and More
Satisfactory, According to Douglass.
_J__
A now plan of lighting the library is
being tried out by M. 11. Douglass, li
brarian, and 11. M. Fisher, superiutend
not of grounds at the University. The
plan consists of "Itraseolite" fixtures,
which use a system of indirect overhead
lighting.
Three of the new lights were Installed
Saturday, two in the western section of
the library and one near the entrance.
The light comes from -itX) watt nitrogen
lamps. "It is claimed thnL. eight of these
lights would light the library perfectly,
without the aid of the table lights,” said
Mr. Fisher. "Wo have been trying for
the past year to find a system that would
light the library satisfactorily, and 1 am
confident that the “Itraseolite" system
is what we have been looking for.”
According to Mr. Fisher, the cost of
installing table lights on the doxeu or
more tables, soon to bo added for study
aooommoodations, would be nearly as
much as the cost of eight overhead lights,
the entire library.
The two new lights in the western sec
tion arc above tables not equipped with
the smaller power| shade lamps, and ac
cording to Mr. Douglass, conditions are
much better for studying at these tables.
The light is sufficient but does not glare,
and is evenly distributed over the
tables. The center of all the table- in
other parts of ihj> library are poorly
lighted and the croae-light effect is bed.
SENIORS GET GOWNS
AND SEE PRENT BROWN
Graduation Garb Will Cost $4,
or Can Be Rented for $2.50;
Senior Play Junior Week.
You may not think it is anj' of Pren
tiss Brown’s business, but j just the
same he wants to know if somebody is
going to lend you a cap and, gown for
commencement. Speaking ott seniors,
of course. Yesterday in senior meeting
Mr. Brown announced that drders for
caps and gowns are to be taken immedi
ately, and that if any one will not need
them, he wants to “scratch
the name
off.’’ Gowns may be bought for $4 and
up, and caps for $1.50. The two may
be rented by the week for $2.50. An
nouncement will be made through poster
as to where orders and measurements
may be taken. But hail Mr. Brown and
tell him your plans.
Commencement invitations niay be or
dered for seven and one-half <5ents each
through Wallace Eakin. Seniors are
asked to find out how many they will
want and present the number jwith cash
to cover same to Mr. Eakin at once. The
time is short. i
The senior class will put on'a play at
junior week-end, it was definitely de
cided. James Mott, who staged “The
Fortune Hunter,” for the University
Players, will be hired to coach it. “Ari
zona,-” or “The Dictator” may be se
lected. “Green Stockings,” which Man
del Weiss, play committee chairman, had
tentatively considered, is to be given by
the Eugene high school. Merlin Batley
said that Mr. Mott considered “The Dic
tator” an even better comedy than “The
Fortune Hunter.” j
Because of the fact that therp was not
more than 50 seniors at the meeting, the
matter of a senior memorial was laid on
the table until the next meeting, which
may be called Wednesday.
A plan to leave an endowment fund for
needy students is being entertained. And
in that the whole class must take it up
willingly in order to make it a success,
a full attendance is necessary at the
next meeting, Another proposition is
that the class leave a tablet (i>n Deady
hall, the oldest building in thb Univer
sity group, commemorating ! this, the
fortieth, anniversary of the founding of
the University. Whichever : plan is
adopted, the memorial committe'e, headed
by Bothwell Avison, feels that no money
expenditure should be voted at a non
representative meeting of seniors. Come
out.

Varsity Team Receiving Finish
ing Touches. Experts to
Avenge Double Defeat
The varsity baseball team is now go
ing through daily rehearsals for the re
turn games with Washington, W|hicli will
be played in Eugene on April 2S and 29.
Special emphasis is being put on defens
ive work both in the infield and the out
field, wherein lay the chief bln rat for the
two defeats at the hands of the ^northern
team last week. The whole team is hit
ting in a fashion that would gladden the
heart of a conch in the face of any num
ber of defeats, for when the fielders
have received their share of the polish
ing that is coming during the next week,
the result should he an invincible base
ball nine, and every one of the' team is
already capable of better fielding work
than he displayed on the northern trip.
The lineup, for the present, ht least,
will remain the same ns formerly, Joe
McLean looks better in right fijeld than
anywhere else, but Jake Risley ip a close 1
contender for" the position,
Tuerck and Kathbuu will probably
have a monopoly on the pitching. Both
allowed comparatively few hits la'st week,
and with better support will probably be
able to win the majority of their games
from now on. I
Dick Nelson is now a fixture at first
base, and will not be used in tb<]» box in
any of the conference games. ^

CLUB TRAINING BEGUN
Y. W. C. A. Opens Class of Instruction
in Social Service Work for
Summer.
A social service class to train leaders
for Eight Week clubs was started at the
Bungalow at 4:30 today. The purpose is
to train University women to be able to
conduct clubs for younger girls in the
small towns during eight weeks of vaca
tion.
A very successful club of this sort was
conducted by Agnes Dunlap at Central
Point, in southern Oregon, last sum
mer. She told the Y. W. O. A. about the
organization, the hikes, classes, picnics
and parties of the club in her home town.
During Christmas vacation she found
the members very anxious to have the
club assured for next summer. Miss
Dunlap thinks that clubs of this kind
furnish excellent opportunity for
“Greater Oregon” boosting.
The Y. W. C. A. class will consider the
best methods of handling Eight Week
clubs and also formulate a schedule of
some kind which will help anyone who
will undertake the leadership of a club
next summer.
The class will l*>ld sessions in the
bungalow at 4:30 on Thursday afternoons
for a half hour each week. Any college
girl interested is invited to come.
BOOKPLATE PRIZE GIVEN
Design Is Typical Oregon Scene With
Pioneer Wagon.
A characteristic bookplate for the
Oregon collection of books at the Univer
sity library at Eugene was chosen this
morning by a committee composed of
Librarian M. H. Douglass, Allen Eaton,
and Miss Camilla Leach, acting as judges.
The dsign chosen by the judges con
sists of a typical Oregon scene, with a
pioneer wagon crossing a divide, with a
border of Oregon grapes. This design
was entered by Curtis Marshall in a
competition held among the students in
the school of architecture, in which six
teen designs were submitted. The de
sign entered by John McGuire featuring
the Oregon seal, the beaver and pine
cones won second prize. The prices of
fered by the library consist of $7.50 for
the first prize and $2.50 for the second.
Those receiving mention by the judges
are Joe Tominaga, first mention*; Walter
Church, second; Marie L. Allen, third,
and Clayton Baldwin, fourth.
Another eo’mpetition may be held next
year, according to Mr. Douglass, to se
cure designs for a bookplate for the gen
eral library.
