Bill Estimates Character
and Recommends Effort
to Secure Good Grades
“We haven’t any natural track |
stars,” Bill Hayward said, “so we
are going to work this winter to
develop some.” And to that end
Bill has had his inventive powers
working overtime until he has de
vised enough apparatus to fit out
a one-ringed circus. He is going to
establish his county fair in the main
section of the outdoor gym; so next
term the athletes will have an op
portunity to train under the shel
ter of a roof for the first time for
years.
Bill has managed to secure a can
vas sack from somewhere which he
claims requires 11 bales of hay to
fill. This isn’t a bed for an ele
phant, but is a mat for the pole
vaulters to light on, and that isn’t
all the equipment for the jumpers
—a long rubber running mat has
been confiscated and Bill has built
a great wooden block with cork
cleats to hold the pole at the take
off.
The shot-putters will really have

Stage Set for Basketball
Barnstorming Contests
The stage is all set for the grand
opening of the 1923-24 basketball
season, with Coach Reinhart busy
putting the finishing touches on his
squad of basketeers, getting them
in shape to take the regular barn
storming tour during the Christmas
holidays. The material which he has
to work with this year is most en
couraging and points toward tho
prospects of having a very strong
aggregation built around the nucleus
of letteianen ^ptufning from the
fast team of last year and the
large number of promising candi
dates which have turned out for
the squad.
Bill has had a squad of some fif
teen men working out regularly dur
ing the past threo weeks and has
devoted the majority of the practice
to the necessity of securing a
thorough knowledge of the funda
mentals of the game. As a result, in
the scrimmage of the past week,
the men have shown a vast amount
of improvement in their floorwork,
and have developed considerable
skill and accuracy in their passing,
dribbling, pivoting and shooting.
Having mastered these details, more
time can be spent by the coach in
developing the framework for the
plays ho will use and perfect during
the barnstorming trip.
The close of the doughnut seasoif

Failure of Oregon to Win
Track Meets Is Due to
Scarcity of Material
STARS ARE NOT NEEDED
Hayward Wants Men to
Place Second and Third
in Championship Events
Football material for future Ore
gon elevens is in demand. With that
point settled, that we need material
hero to build lip winning machines,
wo might turn to track and glimpse
the situation. At present wo have
no football coach. We have a track
coach and a track coach with a repu
tation for developing teams, yet it
has been somo time gince Oregon
throw cinders in the eyes of another
team and took a meet.
Is that Bill Hayward’s fault? We
don’t think so. In fact we’re certain
of it You can’t blame the man who
won track meets in the past and de
veloped, men like Kelly, McClure
Payno, Nelson, Boylen, Tuck, Loucks,
Fee, Muirhead, Foster and a host of
other stellar cinder performers. These
men . used to win track meets for
Hayward.
Just a few short years ago Bill
Hayward had Hank Foster in a track
suit. With a handful of lesser lights
and Foster, Hayward went out and
won his meets. Hank was always
good for two or three firsts and may
