Visitors Stage Vicious Rally in Last Half But Fail to Head Freshmen Breaking up a desperate rally by the rooks in the last five minutes of play, the freshman basket shooters showed a burst of speed that earned them a 33 to 25 victory over their yearling rivals from O. A. C. in a rough and hard fought game in the men's gym yester day afternoon. Two field goals and three neat free throws by Deek Bryant in the last few minutes, together with some stellar guarding by Mautz and Hobson, saved the bacon for the frosh after the rooks had come from behind and made the score stand 26 to 25. From the opening whistle, the game was fast, close, and desperately fought. Bryant, frosh forward, started the scor ing, but two baskets in' rapid succes sion by Grider and Kolkana of the rooks gave them the lead which they held for five minutes of strenuous play ing. Bill Gosser then brought the score to a tie and the Oregon youths took the lead when Bryant converted three fouls. From then on the freshmen held the lead with the Aggie babes always threatening. Some playing of the sen sational order was pulled off by botli teams in this half. Because of the close guarding on both sides, neither sets of forwards could do much scor ing. Taking advantage of this, big Bob Mautz brought down plenty of ap plause when he dribbled down the length of the floor from his position at stationary guard and converted a goal in the latter part of the period. Hobson also featured with a couple of long shots in this half. The rooks were kept in the running mainly through the hooping of Kolkana, guard, who rang in several long ones. The frosh led 16 to 12 when the period ended. The Oregon lads also started the scor ing at the opening of the second half and held a comfortable lead when the rooks started a rally which seemed al most too much for the frosh. Coach Huntington inserted Stendall in the line-up for Scriptures and the Aggie rally was stopped. Both teams speed ed up in this half and the playing be came faster and rougher. The check ing on both sides was close and most of the baskets were of the long-distance variety. It was in this department of the game that the Oregon freshmen showed marked superiority, for the Ag gie babes showed poor shooting ability. Deek Bryant took the high scoring honrs with a total of 15 points. Nine of these were made on free throws. He had 12 chances to convert free throws. Osborne, the Aggie foul thrower, made but three good ones out of eight chan ces. Grider and Kolkana bore the brunt of the frosh attack, both on the offense and defense. Osborne, the oth er forward, failed to make a field goal until the second h,alf. The Oregon yearlings now have an edge in the four game series, with two games to their credit against one for the rooks. The final game will be play ed at 4:30 this afternoon in the men’s gym The line-up: Frosh—33 Books—25 Bryant 15.F.Osborne 5 Scriptures 6...;.F.Grider 10 Gosser 6.C.Baird Mautz 2.G.Theison Hobson 4.G.Kolkana 10 Stendall .S Referee, Pete Barton; umpire, Hold erman. FLOWER GARDENS ADDED New Beds to Be Placed Near Halls; Shrubbery Will Be Trimmed Two new flower gardens will soon contribute their fragrance to the cam ^b,Us atmosphere if the weather will stay '/ pleasant and allow the gardeners to work, according to H. M. Fisher, super intendent of buildings and grounds. One of these flower beds is to be lo cated in the sunken garden plot south of Susan Campbell hall and the other on the east side of Mary Spiller hall. The flowers grown will be of the annual variety, such as tulips, asters and others suitable for table decorations. Flowering shrubs will also be trans planted about the Y. M. C. A. hut as soon as the weather permits, as the soil is already prepared and everything is in readiness for the work. The old flower plots and shrubs around the campus will be trimmed and made to look more attractive, so that with all these improvements and the massage the lawns have been getting fro the lust; few days, the campus will put on an improved appearance by the time the spring term rolls around and the sun begins to shine in earnest. TOM MIX AT REX Whirlwind action, with bright spots of romance, marked the picture that started at the Rex last night, “For Big Stakes,” starring Tom Mix. It is replete with adventure. It has*a love story, too, of exceeding charm. The photoplay is a wholesome, worth-while tale of the way of a man with a maid. The sands and hills of Arizona, the clear skies, the outdoor life—all are here. The acting of Tom Mix—in fact, of the entire cast—is of the highest order.

NEW ART BUILDING READY FOR OCCUPATION Instructor’s Dream About to Be Real ized; New Edifice Ready for Classes Tuesday If Professor A. H. Schroff and Pro fessor Avard Fairbanks of the fine arts department are weeping, they are weeping tears of joy, for sculpture classes beginning next Tuesday at one o’clock will meet in the new art build ing. liver since the old sculpture building burned, all classes have been held in the architecture building, along with the life classes, and everyone has been con stantly handicapped for want of room. Now, although work will go on to the tuneful accompaniment of carpenters’ hammers, the students will at least have breathing space. The dream of the new building seems about to be realized. The office of Mr. Fairbanks is up a short fight of stairs where he can look down and keep an eagle eye on his own studio, the students ’ studio and the casting room alike. Also, the new modeling stands are high enough so that the students will have to stand up to model. “The students have sat down to their work for the last time,” said Mr. Fairbanks with a twinkle in his eye. CAMPUS 21 YEARS AGO (Continued from page one.) How big was the body, and how big wTas the class? In those days “Jimmie” Gilbert was a junior and on Friday, May 2, 1902, the junior class in oratory made their first public appearance. “Jimmie” Gil bert was about the third speaker. His piece began with: “I will lay on for Tusculum, and thou lay on for Rome.” The next number of the Weekly gave three inches of space to this speech. “BtTLIiDOG DRUMMOND,” HEILIG Does the average soldier, who ex perienced some of the horrors of lifo in the trenches, find it difficult to settle down again to the peaceful existence of the simple life? Or must he seek excitement to break the tedious mono tony? This is the question that con fronted Captain Hugh Drummond, the leading character played by Carlyle Blackwell in the sensational melodrama, “Bulldog Drummond,” which will ap pear at the Heilig theater.
