TRUCK ATHLETES ARE TO COMPETE Field Meet Will Start After Frosh Game With Rooks NO DELAYS PROMISED Six Events Are Scheduled; Green Men to Enter Athletics predominate in the re creation program for this week and regardless of the fact that most of the available time is scheduled the track meet will be run off this afternoon immediately aftei the basketball game. Bill intends to rush the events through so that the men can get back in time for the wrestling meet. To facilitate starting the meet, Coach Hayward asks that the track men get into their suits before the Frosh-Book contest, then hustle out to the field immediately after the close of the game. Ho promises to run off the events as speedily as possible. Meets Considered Essential Coach Hayward feels that these meets are absolutely essential in conditioning the men and prepar ing them for the grueling contests scheduled for the spring term. It also is his only opportunity for se curing a record of individual effort under competition. These are be ing recorded after each week’s work and a graph made of the pro gress of the teams. Since the invention of the rub ber-topped hurdles Bill has been able to uncover some latent mater ial that promises to strengthen Oregon’s chances in an event which she has been weak for the past few years. The return of Jack Hunt, who won his letter leaping the high sticks last year, to regular practicing has added to Oregon’s hopes of offering real competition in this event to the in vaders who will come next spring and attempt to trike away the few laurels Oregon has managed to maintain through the last two dis astrous seasons. Oregon’s track prestige is going to take an up ward trend in the next few months, if sincere effort on the part of the coach and the faithful training of men may be taken as evidence. “It is the training you do now,” Bill told his men, “that is going to determine the scores in the big meets next spring. Any Event May bo Entered There will be six events today and those signed up are expected to take part; also, says Coach Hay ward, in these meets any man out for any event may enter any of these scheduled for this afternoon. It will give a number of the green men a chance to try out and dis cover the thing for which they be lieve themselves best fitted. The events to be run off this afternoon are: mile, 220, discus, 2 mile, 880, high hurdles and javelin. EASTERN ARCHITECT EXPECTED TO VISIT David Knlckerbacher.

O’Neal, literary editor if the p^ipier. Stories about Oregon writers, or feature material of any sort with a book angle, particularly if it can be localized, is especially desired. The purpiose of the page is to stimulate interest in the real workers and to encourage th.ose who have talent, in addition, to applying readers, who are inter ested in book news, with the sort of hings they wish to read. Mr. O’Neal states in a letter to Sidney Thornbury, concerning the lesire for material, that short para graphs to be inserted in the weekly ‘Writers’ Notes” column, or onger feature stories, from 500 to 1,500 words, or perhaps over, if en thusiasm in irrepressible, |are re ceived at any time, in exchange ’or his heartfelt literary blessing.” Although no recompense can bo iffered, this presents a chance for imbitious writers to get in some plendid practice.
