CANADIAN TEAM WINS FIRST OF PRACTICE GAMES WITH VARSITY Moosejaws Score 12 to 9 Count on Huntington’s Ball Team RAINMAKER TAKES REST Wet May Postpone Few Contests This Week; Nightly Round Scheduled With Leaguers Playing their first game of the season, Oregon’s baseball nine met defeat at the hands of the Moose Jaw tosers in a fairly fast exhibition Saturday afternoon. Jupe Pluvius kindly consented to postpone his downpour long enough for the teams to get together for ohe game, al though the outlook is far from rosy for the indications of another game soon. The grounds were in poor shape Saturday but Coach Hunting ton believes in getting the practice when and where he can. Although the Canadians will be here for the remainder of the week, nothing defi nite can be given out as to how many games will be played. Both . Nines Need Practice The game Saturday gave Coach Huntington a fair idea of what tlie team needed in the way of getting into shape. Both nines showed the result of lack of practice and were slow in getting into action, which will mean some stiff workouts on the diamond when the weather does take a turn for the better. Oregon has an excellent team on offensive work and there was but one strike out in the Saturday’s game. This is gratifying to Coach Huntington, for a good hitting club will mean a great deal in the conference this season. There is still a good two weeks before the opening of the con ference schedule and this will mean that a great deal of the team work polish can yet be brought into play. The work of the squad in Satur day’s game shows them to be of bet (Continued on page four) R0BERTS6N QUALIFIES AS EXPERT RIFLEMAN SALEM SOPHOMORE MAKES 270 OUT OF POSSIBLE 300 AT 6 RANGES Charles G Robertson ,a sophomore from Salem, qualified as an expert rifleman during the target practice which was held on the R.

DAN ELY, FAMOUS ATHLETE, HOLDER OF WORLDS RECORD, DIES Made Fastest Time in 100 Yard And 220, Trained Under Bill Hayward SET 2 MARKS SAME DAY Performances at Olympic Games Not Up to His Work in Meets of Northwest Dan Kelly, one of the noted ath letes of the United States, for the past 14 years holder of the world’s record in the 10 yd, dash, and for mer University of Oregon track man died last Thursday in Fernie, British Columbia. Dan Kelly was develop ed and trained by Bill Hayward. Not only was Kelly a world’s re cord holder in the 100, but he also held lesser records in several other events. Kelly's record in the 100, 9.3-5, was made at Spokane in 1907. The record was made under ideal conditions, the track was in perfect shape. Bill Hayward is of the opin ion that a record made under such wonderful conditions will stand for some time. On this same day Kelly tied the world's record in the 220, running on a slightly curved track in 21 1-5; established a new P. N. A. record in the broad Jump, 23 feet 9% Inches; jumped 5 feet 10 inches in the high Jump; and finally, ran his lap in the relay in 49.1. Broad Jump Mark Set. This was a P. N. A. meet, and in those days the Oregon athletes ran under the M. A. A. C. colors. Seat tle, Victoria, and Spokane partici pated in the gKthering. In his first year at Oregon, Kelly established the coast record in the broad Jump in a dual meet against O A. C. held in fiugene His final leap was 24 feet 2 1-4 inches. Kelly won the National A. A. U. senior record in the broad jump at Jamestown meet, in Norfolk Va. Bill Hayward says that Kelliy was in bad shape for this meet. At the Olympic games in 1908, in London, Kelly placed second in the broad jump. His jump was 23 feet 4 inches, but Frank Irons of Chicago defeated him in the final leap by but a few inches. In Scotland after the Olympic gam es Kelly made 15,1 in the 120 yd. high hurdles. Early Experience in Baker The first experience Kelly had was In Baker high school. Baker, Ore gon. He also attended Columbia University, Portland. When he came to Oregon Kelly ran the 100 in 10.2, and Bill Hayward says he has never seen Kelly run the 100 in 10 flat, for the first time he ran this event in Eugene he made 9.4. Kelly never equaled his broad jump of 24 feet 2 1-4 Inches made in the dual meet with O. A. C. for his jump at the Jamestown meet was 23 ft. 11 inches, and in the Olympic meet he made only 23 ft. 4 inches in the broad Jump. He returned to Oregon in 1909, and that spring won many races, but never broke any records after this time. The parents of Dan Kelly are Mr. and Mrs. D. M. Kelly of Baker, Oregon. -j— GRADUATES TO VISIT HERE Frank Scaiefe and Mrs. Gallagher to Spend Summer In Eugene Frank Scaiefe, graduate of the University with the class of 1917. and his sister, Mrs. Hugh P.
