Inexperienced Athletes Are Unable to Cope With Beaver Veterans FOSTER HIGH POINT WINNER Snook Meets Defeat in 100 And 220; Abbott Wins 880; Bartlett, Discus Varsity Forfeits Relay Oregon lost the annual dual track and field meet meet with O. A. C. yesterday in Corvallis by a total score of 80% to 50%. Oregon’s inexperienced track men were unable to cope wth the exper ienced veterans of the Corvallis team. Captain Hank Foster was high man of the meet, and defeated the far famed Snook in both the 100 and the 220. Foster also registered first in the broad jump.

On a quiet Sunday afternoon it doesn’t take much to create a lot fo disturbance, but at a rally it takes real pep to make yourself heard above the multitude. Thursday evening Oregon’s masculine part of the student body gathered with wash boilers tin cans, base drums and husky voices to remind the dear public of the election tomorrow Far above the madding crowd as the line of rooters progressed down the street, was heard the screech of a siren. So much at tention was attracted by this scource of noise that the rally committee decided to award it first prize for creating the biggest disturbance, and fixed the quan tity of noise produced as worth precisely $10. Robert Belknap and George W. King were responsible for the siretn. It is rumored that gen erosity o nthe part of the fire department accounted for the fact that Belknap and King es corted the screeching mechanism down the line of march.

OREGON BEATS O.A.C. 4 TO 0; BERG HOLDS OPPONENTS HELPLESS Every Bingle Counts With Shy's Men; Aggie Subs Fail to Save Day REINHART'S HITS WIN (SANE Corvallis Makes Only 5 Scattered Hits; V. Jacobberger Gets Home Run Oregon lost the second game to the O. A. C. nine with a score of 3 to 2in a hard fought con test held in Corvallis this morn ing. Berg pitched good ball for Oregon allowing but five hits. Inability of the Oregon batsmen to hit the offerings of Keene, star Aggie twirler, when Oregon men got on bases, is given as the chief reason for defeat. As a result of today’s game Oregon places third in the Pacific Coast Conference and O. A. C. fourth. The two teams tied for individual honors in the annual four game series, each team winning two games. The Varsity baseball team did not give the Aggies a show in the first game of the series in Corvallis yes terday, which ended in a 4 to 0 score. The third inning was the be ginning of the landslide when Babb gave free passes to Berg and Mane rud. Bill Reinhart, the consistent slugger, banged out a two-base hit, that brought Fox and Manerud home. Again in the sixth canto Bill Reinhart repeated his artistic work and Lipd laid out a nice hit. Rein hart scored on Hubbard’s error. Vince Jacobberger made himself solid with the fans by bunting a ball that seemed to be made expressly for him into the outfield. The gardeners got in a quarrel over whom the call belonged to, allowing Vince to score a home run. “Shy’s"’ men won the game because they bunched their hits making every bingle count. Jimmy Richardson used several substitutes and pinch hitters, but they could not score.

Every student in the University will take part in the big rally to be arranged for Monday afternoon and evening. President Campbell is expected to return to the campus from Klamath Falls and Colin Dy ment from Portland, Monday. With the passage of the Millage bill regarded as certain, the University is preparing to spend Monday in cele bration of the event which will go down in history as a landmark In the progress of higher education In this state. The dream of “a Greater Oregon,” is at last to be realized for the voters have backed with their dollars their conviction of the worth of collegiate training. Arrangements for the student cele bration were nearing completion this evening, and a tentative plan for Mon day has been announced. It is the expressed wih of both student offi cers and faculty members that the oc casion be made something more than an ordinary "jazz rally”—Something worth while, and significant of the occasion. “The passage of the millage bill means a new era for the University,” said Karl W. Onthank, secretary to President P. A. Campbell. “It opens new possibilities for the development for higher education in Oregon. We feel that the University has accom plished much In the past, but with the addition of new equipment, new buildings and the augmenting of the faculty, it will be in a position to greatly enlarge the field of its ac complishments.” “I want to thank the students for : the loyal support that thye have shown in working for the passage of this measure,” said Stan Anderson, president of the associated student body.“Its success is in a large mea sure the result of the work of the students of the University, agricul tural college and normal school “Before President Campbell left for Eastern Oregon,” said Anderson, “he sanctioned the plan for a mon ster celebration in the event of the pasage of are millage bill. We are planning to make oMnday the big gest gala occasion ever witnessed at Oregon. It is to be a real festival in which everyone at the University it expected to take part.' PASSAGE OF MILLAGE BILL CERTAIN SAY LATE REPORTS As the Emerald goes to press at 9 o’clock this evening there is no doubt but that the millage tax has passed by a heavy ma jority, according to reports com ing to Eugene from all parts of the state. Late word received at the President’s office from Colin Dyment at Portland say that each new report that comes in is better than the preceding. This morning Mr. Dyment esti mated that the bill would carry by a majority of 40,0000 but it' is now his opinion that it may be greater. “It will at least carry by more than a substantial number,” said Karl Onthank this evening, “which shows that the people of the state at large ate in favor of higher education and awake to the needs of the state institu tions of higher learning.” VIVIAN CHANDLER WINS RACE FOR PRESIDENCY OF WOMEN’S LEAGUE Nell Warwick Is Vice President and Phoebe Gage Is New Secretary Vivian Chandler .President Nell Warwick . -Vice-President Phoebe Gage .Secretary Madge Calkins .Treasurer Marian GUIs Sergeant at-Arms Mildred Weeks ... -.Editor Even an enticing bargain sale wouldn’t have had a look in with the jamming, pushing, pulling, grabbing, yelling and all the other gentler femi nine arts displayed at women’s league elections Thursday afternoon.

HIGHER EDUCATIONAL MEASURE FAVORED BY VOTERS OF OREGON “Running a Little Better Than 2 to 1Says Member of Committee 'OREGON'S* SHARE $530,000 Success Crowns Intensive Kork of Campaign Conducted By Student Body That the millage bill will pass by a large marjority is the practically certain indication of incomplete re turns received from both the county and entire state on the results of Friday night’s election. The count indicates so far that the state vote will run about two to one in favor of the bill. A telephono message received at noon today from H. P. Vance of O. A. C., a member of the campaign committee in Portland, stated the "bill is running a little better than two to one and will run even strong er than the elementary educational tax measure.” Lane County Goes 2 to 1 The vote in Lane County is not as strong as it is indicated will be pre valent throughout the state. At one o’clock this afternoon returns from 61 precincts gave the bill 4,276 for; and 2,631 against. Reports earlier this 'morning from 36 precincts ran 2013 for and 1209 against. A wire received late this afternoon by Karl Onthank from Don Belding, Oregon graduate at Klamath Falls, says the bill passed in Klamath County by an 8 to 1 vote Colin V. Dyment, University of Oregon representative on the cam paign committee, estimates that the state majority in favor of the bill will run over 40,000. Due to the length of the ballot at the election, complete reports are not available. The millage bill, which is known as the higher educational tax act, provides for a tax of 1.26 mills for the support of the higher educational institutions in Oregon. The greater part of the $1,247,000 that it is ex pected to raise will be divided be tween the University and Agricul tural college. Support is also pro vided for the normal school. University gets $500,000 Increase The University of Oregon’s share of the total will be, on a three-to four basis as compared with the col lege, about $530,000. This will give Oregon a total of approximately $850,000 a year for maintenance and building. The University is now getting about $320,000. The bill was passed by the legis lature at its special session last Jan uary, but owing to the fact that it had already made appropriations up to the limit allowed by the six per cent tax limitation, the measure was referred to the people. A campaign for the passage of the measure was conducted by the three educational institutions which it af feted. Prof. Colin V. Dyment, of the University school of Journalism, was the Oregon representative on the headquarters committee.
