| Question cf Holdng Commence

‘!yiay Come up
Again.
! -
Faculty Decision Would Leave
Deserted Campus and
Little Interest.
(By a senior.)
With the facility decision against set
| ting commencement up a week staring
I them in the face, the Senior class is
| desolate. Every member is a committee
j of one to look around for possible help
1 in the situation. At present, however,
that help seems far away and the weeks
are growing fewer and fewer.
With no particular argument either
f for or against the recommendation tak
en in by the faculty committee that
commencement be set forward one
week, thus making it possible for the
seniors to be graduated while there
were still some signs of human life
on the campus, the recommendation was
turned down. As a consequence, mem
bers of the class have little interest
left in their graduation. particularly
since the latest training camp authoriza
tions will take a number of the already
| pitifully small crew of men which grace
: !ts ranks and tear up its class meet
) ings.
Would Upset Class Work.
The faculty reason for refusing the
request is that it interrupts the regu
lar routine of class work for the under
classmen, makes it necessary to make
out two whole sets of examination ques_
tions, and cuts the year for seniors
even shorter than it already is. It was
pointed out to the committee that
should commencement ceremonies be
held on a totally deserted campus, very
small interest would prevail even among
the seniors themselves, since practically
everyone is more than anxious to got
at work of one kind or another. The
mail carries diplomas just as it carries
checks from home. As for the girl's
viewpoint—many of them also will work
this summer, and commencement loses
its chief dignity and charm when it be
comes purely a personal matter.
Sunday Exercises Unpopular.
The changing of commencement ex
ercises proper for Sunday night is like
wise meeting with disapproval among
the class of ’IS. It was suggested in
meeting but was not discussed fully at
nil and on more mature thought the
seniors are seeing the disadvantage of
the idea. The number of relatives and
alumni in attendance will not be great;
the plan crowds a formal commence
ment and makes of it a high schoolish
affair; the next day will be “Blue Mon
day” and, after all, exercises held on
Sunday night will not greately facili
tate the departure of the seniors—that
is the feeling.
There is at present a tendency in the
class to bring the whole question up for
consideration again, and after confer
ring with various faculty members, it
is believed that some more satisfactory
arrangement can be found for the com
mencement ceremonies.
MO TRACK THIS WEEK-END
Plans for U. of W., 0. A. C.. and Dough
nut Meets Fall Through.
There will he no track meet this Junior
Week-end f )r the first time in several
years. The University of Washington
backed out of their contract to send
a team, pleading that they were so de
void of track talent ns a result of the
war that they could not find enough men
on the campus to make up a team. There
was some talk of another meet with
O. A. C., but this has been dropped. The
doughnut meet also has been abandoned,
ns there will be so i*iny visitors on the
campus that such a contest would have
little interest.
BHEK'SJP FIFTH
Pi4£steg Three Places Higher
than Last Year.
Bigbee, Former Oregon Star,
Not Regularly in
Lineup.
While Hugo Bezdek’s Pittsburg Fi
rates are at present occupying a posi
tion three places higher than they held
the most of last season they are a long
ways from the top. being fifth in the
race for the National League penant.
The season is still young and several
surprises may be sprung before the
championship series next fall, but th®
Pirates scorn to be playing no better
ball than they did last year.
The Pirates in recent years have been
a hard luck team losing the majority
of their games by a close margin of
one or two runs or having their pitcher
blow up in the last inning, when it
was too late, to save the game.
“Sheet" Bighee, former Oregon star
baseball mid basketball player, is not.
according to eastern box-scores, playing
regularly with the Pirates. “Skeet"
played a good game with the “smoky
city” crew last year but his old posi
tion in right field is being held down by
Stengl, former Pacific Coast league
star. Other Pacific Coast league men
now with Bozdek are Cutshaw, who is
playing second base, and Schmidt, catch
1 er.
[ Pittsburg has only five' regulars bat.
ting above two hundred which is not
much of a showing for a big league
club. Of these five only two are above
three hundred, they being Carey and
1 Mollwitz. Stengel who has taken Big
fljee’s place is only batting two tweuty
I two.
| The real trouble in (he Pirate camp
I seems to lie in their pitchers. Out of
I the twenty-one leading pitchers of the
| National league there is only one Pitts
i burg twirier rated, Hamilton, who has
i won both of his starts.
I "Boz” probably misses “Chuck” Ward j
1 at the short patch more than any of '
last year’s regulars. Ward enlisted in I
the navy last winter and his place has !
been hard to fill.
Bc/.dek lias declared himself to he '
on the market for pitchers but Unless J
he hurries and grabs a few dependable I
twirlers the Pirates will wind up r.a
i other season in the cellar.

in the whole battalion. He dreams of
seeing two squads of his men march
ing into the Presidio to show what real
Oregon spirit is.
Of the other men, four are from
Company D, counting Major1 Ray Couch,
formerly captain of that company; two
are from Company C and one is from
Company B.
It is expected that definite announce,
ment of the men who will go to the
Presidio will be made Friday or Satur
day, since the men will wish to make
brief visits with their families if pos
sible before leaving and since they must
be at the camp by May 14.
WOMEN WILL GIVE SWIM
Gymnasium Majors to Entertain with
Open Tank Friday Morning.
University high school and alumnae
women will be the guests of the wo
men’s department of physical education
Friday morning from 10 to-12, when the
swimming tank at the men’s gymnasium
will be open as a feature of Junior
Week-end entertainment.
Owing to the large crowd expected,
the department requests that if possible,
each woman provide her own suit, but
towels will be provided.

III CLOSEBITTLES
Games Friday and Saturday
May Be Real Contests;
Berg and Kruger to
Hurl in First.
Freshmen and Rooks to Meet
Saturday Morning- for
Struggle.
The Varsity baseball nine will meet
the O. A. C. aggregation for the last
two games of the eight game series
hero Friday and Saturday of Junior
Week-end. The games have been
ehanged from Thursday and Friday, as
they wore previously announced, (be
cause of the cancelling of the track
meet.
The O. A. C. team appeared to be
in better shape last week.end at f'or
vallis than they have at any previous
time this season. They may improve
sufficiently this week to give the Var
sity a real run for their money. The
game that, the Aggies won last week
was a loose uncertain affair, and it is
not much to their credit that they cap
tured the contest.
Kruger will have to improve about
100 per cent if he expects to win one
of the games here. He was hit hard
and often by the Varsity sluggers last
Saturday and he appeared to have
nothing on the ball. 4
Lodcll, Baldwin, Hubbard, and Sei
berts are the quartet of Aggies that
will bear watching as they are hitting
the ball hard. The weak point on the
Corvallis team is in their pitching staff |
and with the staff as it is, it is hard
to got a line on the true worth of the
other players.
Wilson Will Be Able To Twirl.
From present indications Iterg will
twirl the first \ for Oregon oppos
ing probable K ft. as they will save i
Coleman to work against "Chief" Wil
son on Saturday. Wilson has been i
sick for the past day or two but Dean |
Walker is of the opinion that he will
he able to twirl Saturday's contest.
The freshmen meet the Aggie rooks
again next Saturday morning and this
battle will probably prove to lie more
evenly contested than the Varsity. The
rooks have a good pitcher in Miller, the
drop ball artist, and the fresh will have
to go some if they expect to take his
measure. The rooks are working hard
for this battle as they want to make it
two straight.

military effect. The colors of the class
are red and white, so with the service
flags of theh different houses and of
the University and uIro the flag which
was on the battleship Oregon and the
two battalion flags, thej^rmory will be
a blaze of red and white color. Ilung

Between the fourth and fifth dances,
the Girl’s Glee Club will put on a pro

will be dressed in Japanese costume
and will imitate the Japanese Rteps.
Marion Coffey, chairman of the feat

the feature a dark mystery, but when
it leaked out yesterday to a select few
what the feature is to be, they shook
their heads knowingly and said it will
be good. The feature will he the eighth
