NEARLY 500 WOMEN REGISTER EOR SPORTS; FACILITIES CROWDED Girls Crowded Out of Tennis, Swimming and Archery; 40 Out for Baseball With the greatly increased num ber of women registered in the de partment of physical education this year, accommodations for outdoor spring sports are taxed to the limit. Between 450 and 500 women are reg istered for one of the seven sports offered by that department. So many women have signed up for swimming that it will be impos sible to acommodate any more in that sport other than those who are taking it for the credit and those who are out for the meet with O. A. C., according to Miss Catharine Winslow. The pool in the men’s gymnasium, which is used by the women for three hours on Monday, Tuesday and Thursday, is used each of these days by about 110 women, or an 'average of about 19 each of the six one-half hour periods, into which the time is divided. Many Crowded Out of Tennis Out of 200 applications for places in tennis classes, Miss Emma Water man was able to allow only 135 in this sport. Five sections have been arranged for which will make it nec essary to keep all seven courts in use at the same time. To allow those who are not taking tennis use of the courts there will be no classes after 10 o’clock on Tuesday and on Thursday and none after 4 on Mon day, Wednesday and Friday. Miss Waterman said yesterday that the department would like to have a large number of upperclassmen out to practice so that there would bo plenty of material to select from for the tournament Junior week-end. On rainy days, the morning tennis class es will have folk dancing and the afternoon classes volley ball. Ninety girls made application for archery but this number was sifted down until only about 50 remain, the largest poslble number which can be accommodated, according to Miss Harriet W. Thomson. Each House to Have Team "By the end of next, week each house on the campus should have a team out for doughnut league base ball practice,” said Miss Waterman yesterday. Forty girls are signed for baseball. Because of the fact that the Uni versity owns but two canoes the course in canoeing was at first lim ited to beginners and only a few of those. Contrary to her previous in tentions. Miss Thomson will take out one canoes of advanced ennoers, in addition to the two canoes of be ginners. Two new classes, volley ball and elementary dancing, will be given this term to accommodate the over flow from the other sports. Volley ball will be played on the tennis courts and on rainy days in the open air gymnasium. The class Includes 11(1 women and will hold a few more. 'Phi' elementary dancing class was organized by Miss Winslow for the purpose of putting on a campus dance program and pageant near the end of the term. Almost any num ber run he in t ln> class, according to Miss Winslow. MOTHERS TO HAVE TWO DAYS IN THEIR HONOR (Continued from page 11 sermons will he preached.

POOH SHOWING MODE IN FROSH BASEBALL WEARERS OF GREEN FAIL TO TURN OUT WELL—TEAM TO TO BE PICKED SOON The frosli baseball squad reported for practice last Wednesday after noon, and although there is lots of good material in school, so far only 15 out of 75 signed up have showed up for practice, according to Dick Nelson, coach. Nelson is a former player with the Portland Pacific Coast league, who held down a berth on one of the Western Canada league teams last season. t This was a poor showing for the class of 1924 says Nelson, and as he is going to pick the team soon those not out for practice will be out of luck.
