Airtight Ball; Jacobson
Hurls Three.
The double-header baseball game
played Saturday morning between the
varsity and O. A. 0. resulted in an even
break. Oregon taking the first contest.
•1-2, while the Aggies came out on top in
the final game, the score of which was
:"-4. Berg and Knudsen were the main
factors in the Lemon-Yellow victory,
while “boots” were the prime cause of
the loss of the second game, in which the
Oregon defense crumbled in crucial mo
ments.
In the initial set-to. Art Berg, for the
University, allowed but five scattered
bingles, and counted out nine of the Cor
vaTlis batsmen on strikes. Carl Knud
sen, heavy hitting right fielder, put the
game on ice in the first canto when he
pickled one of Bert Babb’s fast- ones for
a circuit clout with two men decorating
the sacks. Kundsen’s homer ended the
varsity scoring but the three runs brought
home the bacon, as the Aggies could get
but two runners across the plate.

In the first half of the first, the visi
tors started things with a bang. Noonan
and McKenna opened on Berg with sin
gles but their hits went for naught when
the big fellow retired the next three of
the batting order on strikes.
Berg found himself in a bad hole in
the fifth. Tasto hit a long fly to the
outfield which was misjudged and which
went for two bags. An infield bobble
put Babb, next man up, on first, and ad
vanced Tasto to third. Knudsen saved
the day when he made a beautiful run
ning catch of Noonan’s liner and caught
Babb off second for the third out.
The O. A. C. tallies came in the ninth.
Two glaring errors and a walk filled the
bases. Gill laid one down the third base

“Spec” Keene crossed the pan a moment
later on Hartman’s sacrifice fly. Zim
merman, Oregon left fielder, made a
beautiful running catch of this fly, and
throwing as he fell, stopped further scor
ing. Berg retired the side a moment
later by retiring Tasto for the final out
of the game.
Berg Fans Eight.
Berg started the second game, which
immediately followed the first, and lor

he worked, Art struck out eight men. al

balls, and was responsible for none of i
the three counters which the Collegians
amassed.
The Aggies started proceedings in the
first inning, when two errors in the in
field netted a tally. Berg ended the
frame by striking out “Spec” Keene and

DUCKING AND ROOTING
RESULT IN SUNBURN
Frosh President Develops Prize Case;
Also Suffers From Loss
of Voice.
It began Friday morning, when, just
on general principles, the senior oops
dipped him head first into the cooling
waters of the fountain.
Friday afternoon he did much rooting
for the frosh tug-of-war team, and im
mediately thereafter plunged into the
cold millrace, which helped it along still
more.
At the ball game Saturday morning he
yelled for Oregon and shouted defiance
to the O. A. C. rooters, which was the
beginning of the end—
And to cap the climax, he went to the
track meet Saturday afternoon and sat
in the burning sun of the bleachers with
no protection except a rooter s cap
Fntil now, the president of the class
of 1924 has one of the most beautiful
cases of sunburn that has appeared on
the campus so far this spring, and in
addition to that, he has lost his voice, **
practically so, for lie is unable to talk
above a whisper. But Claire should wor
ry, for the luck is all his when the reci
tations are oral.

the bindery, at the Junior class play. At
the banquet: Saturday evening speeches
were made by Steele Lindsay and Merv

LETTERS BRING GUESTS
Junior Week-end Publicity Attracted
Preppers to Campus,
The 500 letters and 300 posters which
were sent out to the high schools of the
state to advertise Junior Week-end were
partly responsible for the great number
of guests on the campus, says Art Kuhn
liausen, chairman of the publicity com
mittee for the week-end.
Many of the visitors have told him.
Kuhnhausen says, that they were made
eager to see the University by these
letters, by the posters and by stories of
the plans for the week-end which ap
peared in most of the newspapers in the
state. The Greater Oregon committee
also sent out invitations and descrip
tions of the plans for the week-end, aud
every high school in the state was
reached somehow, Ixuhuliausen saj s. Ilis
assistant on the committee was James
Say.
PROFESSORS HOLD QUIZZES.
Miss Mary Perkins and Or. E. S. Bates
were in Portland Thursday and Friday
to act on the examining board for the
English majors at Reed college. Every
major is required to write a thesis and
take an examination, the same thing that
Oregon requires of a student wishing to
take honors in a subject. The examina
tions will continue throughout the next
week also.
Dean of Physical Education
Declares Work Here
Is Excellent.
FACILITIES OF MANY
UNIVERSITIES NOTED
Intramural Sports Is Latest
Movement; All Colleges
Need Money.
After a survey and study of physical
education work as it is carried on in the
schools and universities of the east. John
F. Bovard, dean of the school of physical
education, who has just returned from
an extended tiip through the country,
declares that there is no place like the
University of Oregon. “The farther you
get away from home the better it seems
to be back here,” he declared.
“The Oregon organization of physical
education work was highly praised by
people in the east.” he continued. “Of
course, Oregon is a comparatively small
school, but its facilities are excellent.
It is one of the few schools in the coun
try to train both men and women ns
teachers in physical training, and it has
a right to be proud of this work.”
Many Schools Visited.
Dr. Bovard visited California, middle
western universities, Columbia, Harvard,
Chicago University, and the University
of Illinois. He studied all these schools
to find out what they had that he could
bring back to Oregon. The University
of Michigan has practically the same or
ganization as Dr. Bovard is working but
here, and he was interested to note all
the details of its system.
“The chief movement which other
schools are carrying on;” he 'sai<l, “is that
of intra-mural sports. I was particu
larly impressed by the fact that Oregon
had such a good chance to build up this
kind of sport, since there are such large
fields close to the campus that may be
used for tennis courts, baseball dia
monds, handball courts and every otheg
sport which the students at this growing
University would be interested in.” He
stated that all the schools he visited were
rather strapped for money, so they could
not fully carry out their program of
recreational facilities for everyone, but
that they all had definite aims along this
line.
Baseball Popular In East.
In spooking of tho facilities offered
by other universities he told of the
splendid opportunity which the students
ut. the University of Illinois had to play
baseball. “At times there are ns many
as 18 games all going on at the same
time. Everybody plays,” he said with a
smile. Harvard has a great number of
tennis courts, and all the men play,
which Dr. Bovard claims in the reason
why most Harvard graduates are such
tennis sharks.
“One thing I took special pains to see
in every college I visited was ^hoir wo
man’s building, and I can truthfully say
that our Woman’s building stands up
favorably when compared with any other
of like character in the country,” Dr.
Howard said, with an air of pride. He
compared it with the woman’s gymnasium
and club house at the University of Chi
cago. That building, while it is very
large, beautiful, and expensive, is not
any more satisfactory than ours, he
maintained. Whereas we have only about
550 girls to accommodate, and they have
over 2000, we have five gym floors, which
are usable at all times, while they have
only one. *
Wellesley’s Schools Noted.
“Something they have at weiiesiey,
which we do not have, are playing fields,
where the girls taking up various sports
in the gym classes can practice,” he went
on. “On the other hand, they have prac
tical^ no outdoor gyms in the east, but
armories with dirt floors. A stadium is
being planned at the University of Illi
nois which is to cost three and one-half
million, and just recently the student
body there has raised $640,000. which is
an average of $100 per student.” The
plan of these stadiums is to make them
n great recreational center for all the
students.
Dean Bovard also investigated the stu
dent health service and obtained all the
latest ideas on how the health of the
college student should be safeguarded
which ideas he expects to use at Oregon

Follow In Order.
SMITH-WESTERMAN
TEAM RANKED HIGH
Lemon-Yellow Drew Third By
Good Luck and Skillful
Playing.
California, Stanford, Oregon, O. A. O.,
S. ('. and Washington. That is the
way the standing of the Pacific coast,
conference tennis tournament read, ac
cording to Professor Sam Bass Warner,
official scorekeeper of the tournament.
Although Washington placed last, her
team was probably superior to (). A. C.
and W. S. C. and would have given Ore
gon a hard run, according to local tennis
fans, and the placing was due largely to
the results of the drawing. Oregon was
fortunate in this respect and this bit of
luck combined with excellent, work of
Smith ana Westermnn gave the Lemon
Yellow an excellent standing.
Next to the home team, the Califor
nians were easily the favorites among
the fans, both Bates and Levy being true
sports as well as whirlwind players. Da
vies, the Stanford man who came out
ahead in the singles finals, also' was
popular. •
Large Crowds on Hand.
When the tournament started Thurs
day afternoon there was a large crowd
on hand to -welcome the visitors. Old
man Jupe was there, too. and after Ore
gon had defeated W. S. C., and Cali
fornia had defeated both Washington and
O. A. O., in the first part of the singles
preliminary, he turned on the mist and
the affair sfwppped for the afternoon.
Friday the sun came out winner and
so did Bates and Levy, of California,
who with their wonderful drives and care
ful placing took everything in sight.
One of the interesting features of the
day was a hard-fought battle between the
Sun Dodgers and the Bears in which the
former, although losing, showed class
that gives them a third or fourth place, in
the eyes of the fans.
Bates is Fast.
Terrific playing and increased crowds
were features of the last day’s finals.
Bates, of (lie Bears, and Davies, of Stan
ford, fought it out to a finish, with Da
vies coining out winner. In the rapid
fire doubles, the tables were turned, and
the Blue and Gold of California tri
umphed.
Both teams expect to go cast, almost
immediately, to take part in eastern
tournaments. Oregon and the other
northern schools wish them luck and join
in hailing them as champion tennis play
ers and mighty good sports, according to
tin* concensus of opinion, expressed at an
informal meeting of the teams, immedi
ately following the close of the finals.

sented last Saturday night to liemey Cox

ed every year, according to Dean John

for her personality and loyalty, said Dean
Elizabeth Fox. It was given four years
ago by Mrs. George Gerlinger, of Port
land, a member of the board of regents.

college affairs during the past year. lie
was a leader in the fight, for the passage
of the njillagc bill, upon which the school
depended. He is, at present, head of (he
forum, and forensic manager. He has
taken much interest in debating and has
been a member of the varsity debating
team for the past two years, ('ox was
also a member of the Oregaua staff this
year. Another factor which had to do
with the decision was that he has made
his own way through college.

her average for the year being 2.45. She
has been active on student body commit
tees and on musical organizations, being
a member of the glee club, Mu Phi Ep
