Miss Ruth Benson, ono of the national secretaries, with headquarters j„ Seat tle, told of the growth of the Y W O A. work throughout the world during'the past year. A new department has been created with three secretaries who are supposed to become personally ncquaint in rvh.: i-00 for,'iR"ghLs 1,1 *•>.is in the I n,ted States. Their work is to establish a more friendly relation with rnese foreign girls.

"Loyalty tb friends ,s sh:'k"ig up for them.” and gracious ness is "when you want to show off not ■aving to put on.” These were defini tion given by these girls. Leadership Is Aim. “Leadership is the thing that we want to emphasize next year.” declared Miss , Ibnsdalc, secretary. Other countries need America, not only for food pro luets, but for the tilings that American ■vonum can give them. "When I think of he struggling little foyer in Italy with which I was connected, just learning the essentials of organization, it makes me want to have the girls here think of the fundamentals of Christian princi ples,” she continued. “Out of this association I expect these things to come and it is this thing that we must work for. We want to turn out leaders,” Miss Dinsdale said in con cluding. The different members of the cabinet made their reports for the past year. These repwrts showed the increasing numher of activities entered, and the much larger scale that the Y. W. C. A. is working on. “I am sure that we can make a suc cess of next year by just being friends,” said Eleanor Spall, * following the an nouncement of her election as president of the association. VARSITY TRACK TEAM PROSPECTS ARE GOOD (Continued from rage 1). University of Washington May 7. The second trip will be made to Pullman .Tune 4. at which time Oregon will enter a team in the Northwest conference meet there. Oregon should have a well-balanced track team this year, and some good men for the field events also. Five old letter men are back in college, 'and around this nucleus Hayward will have to build his team. In the tv<o mile event Oregon should be able to clean the coast with Glenn Walkley sack on the job. Walkley has had two years experience, one with the varsity last season and one the year previous with the freshman team. He may also York in the mile. Koepp will also try t'nj mile this year for the varsity. Koepp ran with the frosh track team in this event last sea son and was good enough to beat the O. A. C. rooks’ runners by a good margin. Blackburn, who ran distance races for the frosh last year is back. Several Candidates for Half Mile. In the half mile Oregon loses a good man this year in Leith Abbott, who was elected Inst fall to captain the team. He will not return for college however. Pel tier will probably do his first varsity running this season in that event. Wayne Akers may also run the half this year. Akers has been out for two seasons and is a good man. In the quarter Oregon hns a number of good candidates. Two Itiartcr mile letter men, Sundeleaf and Havyslip are back and the two best frosh men for this distance Collins and Lar sen are out as well. These men should make a good relay team for the Univer sity. Oregon is weaker in the sprints than in any other place so far. Oberteuf fer and Hemenway are the best bets now. In the hurdles Carl Knudsen should VEGA BANJOS We Sell Them The Banjo with the en dorsement of Clads, Colleges and Dance Orchestras. Perfect in construction and priced! reasonably.

In the field events Art Tuck will prob ably be back to do his part. Tuck is good for a number of points in any meet in the discus, shot and javelin. “Scotty ’ Straehan should be good for first place in the shot this year. He lost to George Powell of O. A. C. last year in the O. A. C. meet by three-quarters of an inch. Brown and Shields will also be out foi places in the weights. Don Portwood of last year’s varsity is again out for the pole vault. Phillips and Ingele will make him step this year to keep above them. Phillips did we!l last year and looks better this season. In the jumps Oregon will not show so much class. Nunn is fair at the high jump and l’.lack aby is good. [ The varsity will probably not send a (team to the Columbia indoor meet this year as it is to be held a week from Saturday and the men will not he in shape. It is probable that a frosh team may go. * POWELL TO REPRESENT WEST. Coach Walter Powell, of Stanford University, has left for New York City to attend a meeting of the National Rules Committee for the consideration of important changes in the rules gov erning American football. The meeting opens March 11 in' the Biltmore Hotel and will last several days. This will be the first time that the west has been represented at such a meeting.
