i WASHINGTON BEATS OREGON AT TENNIS Mort Brown Only One of Home Players to Take Match From Northerners The University of Washington won the tennis tournament from Oregon tak ing four out of five matches played. Oregon’s only win was scored when Mort Brown, northwest intercollegiate Todd. Washington won both sets of champion, won his set of singles from doubles and took two of the three sets of singles. In the last match of the day, Smith, of Oregon, went down to defeat before Barker of Washington in two straight sets, the score being 6-1, 6-2. Smith ap peared to be afraid of himself in his match this afternoon and failed to cut loose with any speed or spectacular work. Mortimer Brown, northwest inter collegiate tennis champion, held his own against Todd, of Washington, this afternoon and won the singles match, the score being 6-1, 7-5, 7-5. Brown played his usual smashing game taking every chance in the world and got away with it. Todd played a clever game and kept placing his returns at difficult corners of the court. Brown kept ahead of his opponent, but he was tired somewhat by the stress of the tray. Double Match is Long The Washington doubles team, Todd and Waller, won the final set in the doubles match this noon, taking the de ciding set from Beggs and Brown, 6-2. The scores of the first four sets, which were played last night, were 2-6, 6-2, 6-4, 4-6. Washington got an early lead in the first of the doubles jlayed yesterday afternoon, their team, consisting of Todd and Barker hung the Indian sign on the Oregon team, which was made up of Brown and" Smith. The visitors took the first two sets, 6-3, 6-3, before Oregon got going at all. Brown arid Smith then came to life and captured the next two sets, 6-3, 7-5, but lost the deciding set, 7-5. The Oregon team was slow in get ting started but after -thew did, they made things interesting for the visi tors. The last three sets of the doubles match were very cleverly contested and showed some good work on the part of the players. Brown Best in Conference ‘1 Mort ’ ’ Brown, Oregon’s only letter man in tennis, was in good form dnr ing the meet. Brown and Todd, are about the best that the northwest col leges can .offer, and the winner in their match has a just claim to the singles championship of the northwest confer ence. Todd has already defeated Hyde, of O. A. C., who is the Aggies’ best bet in tennis. In the singles played yesterday after noon Beggs, of Oregon, lost three straight sets to Waller, of Washington. Waller is a big left hander and, with his peculiar serve, had the better of Beggs. Waller took the sets, 6-3, 6-3, 6-2. ARMSTRONG WINS MEDAL Junior.

FRESHMEN HIGH POINT WINNERS IN FIELD MEET Continued from Page One) closest contests for individual score ever held on the University campus Evelyn Smith emerged with a score of 13 and Erna Jeppeson with a score of 12. Because neither of these high point winners were members of the Women’s Athletic association, the yew wood bow, trophy for archery, was awarded to Vivian Chandler, who was the nearest runner up. . Miss Chandler holds the highest score of the season for class work in archery. She has 156 points to her credit. The competing class teams had as their members Maud Lombard and Louise Wilson, seniors, Evelyn Smith and Elva Bagiev, juniors, Vivian Chandler and Erna Jeppeson, sopho mores, Grace Young and Elizabeth Mc Haley, freshmen.

The seniors then lost to the sophomores by default, caused by lack of time to finish the shoot. Class Gives Baseball Performance The last of the athletic events for the meet was the baseball game.

TEAM IN PULLMAN FOR TRACK MEET _ Washington State Best , Bet in Contest in North; Foster Is Oregon’s Hope Today the University of Oregon track team is entered in the Northwest Conference track meet at Pullman, Washington. The Oregon team, con sisting of Runquist, Foster, Afcbott, Belding, Anderson, Mulkey, Starr, Bowles, Hargreaves and Estes, is com peting against entries from Washington State College, the University of Idaho, and the University of Montana. The ten men who made the trip left Friday noon for the north. Only nine of the men will be entered, but ten were taken along. ‘ ‘ Bill ’ ’ Hayward left early Friday morning for Port land to officiate in the interscholastic track meet held there yesterday. He will join the team when it leaves for Pullman. It is very doubtful just who will win the Northwest Conference meet this year. The University of Washington and 0. A. C. were both privileged to enter, but as far as is known they did not do so. Dual Meet Dope Often Upset W. S. C. seems to have the edge on the rest of the colleges, according to dope. She won a dual meet with O. A. C. recently, and that gives her an edge on Oregon. Very little is known about Montana and Idaho, but as these col leges are smaller, they have a poorer chance for a showing. In a conference meet, howevef; the dope set by dual meets is apt to be up set. A great deal more depends on the quality of the first place athletes of a team, than upon those who can be ex pected to place second or third. W. S. C. is likely to be Oregon’s most serious competitor, and' it is probable that the fight for first place will be between these two teams, unless the Idaho or Montana contingents contain ‘ ‘ dark horses. ’ ’ Next week the Pacific Coast confer ence will be held in Seattle. This is expected to be a fast meet, with six coast colleges entering. Stanford, the University of California, Oregon, Ore gon Agricultural College, Washington State College and the University of Washington will be entyjred. Foster Among Best With regard to today’s meet,. “Hank” Foster will be the man upon whom Oregon must rely the most. He has proved himself to be one of the best sprinters in the conference, a^id can be relied upon to place somewhere | near the top in the sprints, hurdles and broad jump. A1 Kunquist, Oregon’s weight man, is likely to find hard sledding while at Pullman. A1 ’s ’ particular sport is heaving the discuss, and if he can place in the other weight events, he ought to take the discus. Stan Anderson and Don Belding are other strong men, who can be counted on for a few points. As so little is known of the ability of the repre- 1 sentatives of the other colleges, noth ing definite con be predicted, however, The men who are in Pullman are ex- j pected to return Sunday evening. STUDENTS URGED TO WRITE PARENTS TO VOTE FOR BONDS Continued from Page One) which is at present crowded into a few rooms of the University Power House, and it will cost approximately $100,000.” Tuesday at this election the Soldiers’ Sailors’ and Marines’ Educational Fi nancial Aid Bill will be voted on. Prospects of a light vote are very evi dent thinks Onthank, secretary to President Campbell, and there is a probability that the decision might be made by the students vote. ‘‘An af firmative vote for this bill means a square deal for our returning soldier boys and prosperity for Oregon,” says B. L. Eddy, chairman of the Oregon Reconstruction Campaign Committee. TENNIS MATCH CALLED OFF Willamette Has No Co-ed Varsity Tennis Team This Year Word from Willamette has been re ceived by Madeline Slotboom, tennis head, to the effect that Willamette does not have a woman’s varsity tennis team this year. This leaves the Vasity without any games scheduled unless some other college should ask for a game. o Let’s shoot a game of pool. The Club, 814 Willamette street.
