Horowitz, deceased, vs. Walker D. Hines, director general of railroads, will open the court of the Trial Practice course in the University j law school Thursday evening. Every- i one, from the judge to the janitor, j is ready for the legal tilt, which is scheduled to begin at 7 o’clock in the law library in the Education building. Every procedure will be identical with cases in the regular courts. The jury paiiel will be posted at once, and the venire will include students from every department in the Uni versity, according to Ben Ivy, jury j commissioner. The members of the jury will he amply rewarded for their services, he continued, by being presented with movie tickets. Officials of the court will be Judge Edward W. Hope, City Clerk C. C. Clark, Jury Commisioner Ben Ivy, Baliff Miles McKey, Court Reporter H. J. Wells, and Janitor Fred Pack ward. Attorneys for the plaintiff are G.

He was discovered by Mike Harris, brakeman, employed by the defendant corporation. This clever man invented forthwith a de vice whereby he could hit the plain tiff intestate by bouncing an iron on the rail, the iron being attached to a rope held in the hand of the brakeman. These repeated blows dislodged the plaintiff intestate, who fell to the ground and was killed. The plain tiff, L. P Anderson, is sueing the defendant corporation for the sum of $75,000 damages. The class in Trial Practice follows the course in Moot Court, which has been given in the law school, and in which the filing of cases was made, and the cases brought to issue, but not argued.

CANOE IS CAPSIZED IN RIVER. 5 IN WATER DURING EXCITEMENT George McFaul And Helen Laughary Upset; Three Rush to Rescue The canoe accident on Sunday afternoon in which several Univer sity students braved the cold waters of the Willamette resulted in no injuries ,and probably brought out a better display of cool headedness on the part of the principals in the accident than of the spectators along the bank. The canoe capsized in the Willa mettte river just above the portage, according to George McFaul, who was paddling at the time it over turned with Miss Helen Loughary and himself. Both occupants were good swimmers and held onto the canoe until they had drifted to the head of the portage. Here they both struck out for shore, effecting a landing Just below the portage. McFaul could give no explanation for the accident, except that the canoe was in a small riffle. They were traveling upstream at the time and suddenly found themselves in the water. Both kept their heads and drifted till they reached a point closer -to shore. Several University students who witnessed the accident from the bank plunged in. in an attempted rescue. Leslie Perry, who was first into the water, became exhausted and drifted several hundred yards downstream before he was rescued by William Purdy. James Benedict also plunged in to assist Purdy, but was too late to aid in bringing Perry to shore. FROSH WIN FIRST GAME FUTURE LINE-UP GOOD, SAYS COACH NELSON Eugene High Schol Baseball Team Defeated on Varsity Field With 10-3 Score. The Frosh baseball team defeated the Eugene High School team on the Varsity field Saturday morning by the score of 10 to 3. This was the first game for the frosh and Coach “Dick” Nelson used many aspirants in order to get a line on the players who are out for work. The Eugene team also made many changes during the game. The frosh used four pitchers dur ing the fray, “Ducky” Holmes, He witt, Rol ' Grey, and Fent Ford. “Pink” Manerud and “Doc” Furry did the receiving for the freshman team. John Alexander was featured by his hitting ability and his base run ning. He held down center field; the other outfielders were Greer, King and Henry. In the infield Jacobberger showed up well at short and Kremel han dled himself in good style on first base. The others who played in the infield were Samuels, Staten, Dick son and Svaverud. Coach Nelson has a good line on his players and expects to have a strong aggregation on the field by the time the frosh meet the O. A. C. “rooks”, which will be in about two or three weeks. The hitting in the game was good but the fielding was rather ragged at times, The score: Eugene High Frosh . R. H.

He did not fail to explain, however, that the freshmen put forth their best efforts. While it is no longer news that the rooks edged out the frosh by a margin of two points, their respec tive scores being 17 and 15, it is not generally known on the campus that the O. A. C. varsity relay team slackened its pace in that event enough to allow the O. A. C. rook j team composed of Bailey, Hollinger,' Swartout and Cook to wine the race thereby adding five points to their score, four of which were necessary to give them higher standing in the meet than the Oregon freshmen. Oregon was not repersented in the relay. Owing to the poor physical condition of the men who were to enter, Foster said that he did not deem it worth while to make an entry after they had been tired by the other events of the meet. Tuck starred in the meet by nos ing out Snook of O. A. C. in the 50 yard dash with the time of 5 3-5 seconds.* He also took first place in the shot'put with a throw of* 40 feet, 8 1-4 inches and third place in the 200 yard dash. Altogether he annexed 12 of the freshmen’s 15 points. The other three were made by Scanlord Collins who took third place in the 440 yard run and Gay lord Peltier who came out fourth in the 880 yard run. The freshmen came home defeated hut not disheartened. The compari sons on which the meet threw light favor the freshmen, and prospects for their triumph over the rooks in the meet to be held here here May 15 be tween the two, were brighteend last Saturday rather than dimmed.
