E*TRY Mixup Occurs in Awarding of Prize; Oregon Representative First Thought to be Loser Fred Coley, of the University of Oregon, is the final winner of the Fri-state Oratorical Contest as a re sult of the reholding of Frilay’s con test last night. A summation ■ of points gives Coley two first and a second on composition .and a first and two seconds on delivery while Kenneth Cole, of the University of Washington, secured two firsts and a second on delivery and a first, sec and and third on composition. This puts the Oregon man one point in the lead and gives him the prize. Owing to a misunderstanding on the part of the chairman, who figured on a percentage basis instead of hy straight points as is the custom, it was given out last night that Cole had won. When the points were checked up, however, it was found that Coley was the rightful victor and as the Washington man has re turned to Seattle, steps are being taken to inform him of the final result and keep him from collecting the cash prize of $100. First Meeting Friday The contest was re-held last night because Cole failed to appear last. Friday night as a result of a mis understanding of the date hy his manager. He arrived Saturlay and in order to give him a fair chance arrangements we^p made to have the deliveries judged again. R. R. Bres-,, hears, of the University of Idaho, was eliminated from the competition by the decisions of the judges Fri day so Coley and Cole were the only' speakers last night. The percentage basis is used only in the event of a tie in points be tween the contestants. A tie oc curred last year and when the re sults wer efigured from the percent ages gives by the judges Joseph Boyd, of the University of Oregon, was found to be the winner. The use of this basis to settle the tie last year gave the chairman last night to understand that it was used all the time. $100 Goes to Winner A dispute will probably result as to who is the winner of the prize of $100, which is offered by the Honorable E. F. Blaine, of Seattle, but the summation of points gives Coley a definite lead over his com petitor. The address given by Coley was entitled, "Call no Man Common,” and that of Cole was, “Theodore Roosevelt” Coley is a senior in the University and is a major in the sociology department. GRACE YOUNG MAKES RECORD IN ARCHERY Miss-Thomson Pleased With Early Trials In Distance Shooting; High Mark 423 Feet The first records made at the Uni versity for flight shooting, a new phase in archery being worked up in Miss Harriet Thomson’s classes in which the archer shoots for dis tance rather than for the target, were made on May 27, when E. Grace Young established the best record, shooting a distance of 423 feet 8 inches. Frances Moore ,was second with,401 feet 5 inches. Anna Hill shot 392 feet six inches and Mabel Smith 346 feet. The greatest record in flight shoot ing made by men is a distance of 900 feet, made with a 60 pound bow. The bows used by Miss Thomson's classes average about 28 pounds and the distances made are almost half as great as those made by men with stronger bows and much longer prac tice.

This afternoon the Delt and Kap pa Sig doughnut baseball teams willl play, also the Phi DeltS and Friend ly hall. Then with the playing of the Fiji vs. Oregon club game on Wednesday afternoon at 4o’ftlock, the first round of doughnut baseball will be completed, and the schedule for the semi-finals will be arranged. No fooling the Owl club vs. S. A. E. game was a pippin, and the wise boys carried off the big end of the score, 8 to 4. Jimmy Ross, who covered short stop on the Owl club team, performed with suclt ability that much comment has been .caus ed thereof. Ross covers the field like an army blanket on a cold night, and knows how to segregate the balls from strikes. Roy David son did considerable work with the club in whanging out a two and a three bagger. The S. A. E.’s were short on hashers, and they used two; but with out avail for the Owl clubbers merci lessly knocked them wherever the old coach told them to. Both Liebe and Greer toiled for the Sig Alphs in an attempt to stem the onrushing defeat, but the newer club was Im penetrable Owl Club May Surprise The Owl club team is one of ,the unaccounted for prospects for the championship. They look like a mighty good outfit, and may pull the old Jo surprise on some of the "sure” champions. The lineup was: Owl club: Fuller, c; Greer, Liebe, p; Ford, 1st; Beck, 2nd; Liebe, ss; Harper, 3rd; Tuve, rf; Rouslow, cf; Littlefield, If. S. A. E.: Say, c; Taylor, Evans, p; Meador, 1st; Campbell, 2nd; Sum merville, 3rd; Ross, ss; Walker, Bell, rf; McArthur, If; Davidson, cf. Where i8 Cup? It is about as hard to get any dope on who will win the doughnut championship as it is to find out who the president of Mexico is. The Delt-Kappa Sig game will be the best contest of the preliminary round, as both houses has fast, snappy teams that will make a big yell for the cup. Cup? Yes, where is it? The teams winning for the last two years Phi Delts, and Oregon club, have not received the cup to which they are entitled; because of winning the championship, and because each or ganization pays two dollars to the inter-fraternity council to buy the cup. The mystery is: where does the money go, and if there is a cup where is it? 1000 1000 1000 1000 Dean Fox is Speaker Dean Elizabeth Fox is attending a convention of the state Federation of Women’s Clubs at Enterprise this week, and will address the assembly there. The convention will last un til the last of this week. President Campbell in Portland Pr3sident P. L. Campbell is speak-' ing this evening at the annual Medi cal School Alumni banquet in Port land.
