Obak’s Kollege Krier OBAK Wallace, Publisher L.L.J. Office boy and editor Volume 3SUNDAY, A. M. Number 15 Varsity Loses to Winged M Result of Swimming Meet is 43 to 23 State Record Made Diving Exhibition is Given by Kuehn The Multnomah club mermen bested the varsity aggregation yes terday afternoon in the women's tank by a final count of 43 to 23,! taking every event except the dives and the plunge. Peterson, of the club, was the high-point man of the matinee affair with 1114 points. He; took first in both the 100-yard and 40-yard dashes and swam the last leg of the relay, which was taken by the Portland swimmers. Not only was Peterson the high-point man of the meet, but he also suc ceeded in cracking the state record for the 100-yarcT dash when he swam the five laps in 1:00:4-5. The pre vious mark of 1:01 was held by Nor man Boss, former club star. Horsfall was the high man of the varsity aggregation, taking first in i the dives and second in the 220 yard dash. During an intermission, Louis “Happy” Kuehn, amateur champion fancy diver of the world, gave an exhibition which brought the crowd to its feet on several oc casions. Although Kuehn holds his title on the 10-foot board, he seemed to have .little trouble performing on the four-foot board. His repertoire included a list of plain and, fancy dives as well as a number of trick dives, in which he comically depicted the novice at the diving game. The results: 40-yard dash—Peterson (M), Burke (M), McCabe (0); time, 20 4-5 seconds. 100 - yard backstroke — Bushnell (M), Ringler (M), Yoran (O) ; time, 1:17 4-5. 100-yard breaststroke#-Egan (M), Sinclair (O); time, 1:18 2-5. 220-yard dash—Boggs (M), Hors fall (O); time, 2:40. 100-yard dash—Peterson (M), Burke (M), Palmer (O); time, 1:00 4-5 (state- record).

Rumors Heard on Graveyard Removal (Continued from page one) been sexton of the cemetery for the past nine years, estimated that two tliirds of the graves would be removed if the place were converted into a park. Expense would also be a large item. A removal of the graveyard would oblige those responsible for the move ment to provide new land, and to stand the expense of the actual trans portation. If two-thirds of those interred were removed, say to the new Odd Fellow’s cemetery five miles west of town, Mr. La Duke estimated the entire expense, including the pur chase of new land, would amount to approximately $50,000. This new Odd TVllows’ cemetery, established recent ly upon the safe of all available space in rue old cemetery, is forty acres in extent, and would provide ample ground for all the graves removed. The old cemetery, which covers ap proximately six city blocks, was es tablished in 1871, or one year before the founding of the University of Oregon. As to the possibility of the rumor becoming an actuality, one guess seems about as good as another. Mr. La Duke could offer nothing definite. He has heard the rumor for the past nine years. The University adminis tration is non-commital, except that it is hoped in the future to have the place changed into a memorial park, with perhaps a campanile as a single monument. There has never jjeen an organized attempt to secure the removal of the graveyard. Perhaps if the assistance of the townspeople interested might be secured, the project might be pushed through in the not far dis tant future.

KOLLEGE CLUB WINS BiC MEIN IN RACE The results of the Kamus Klique election for the most popular exklu sive men’s hang-out proved konklu sively that Obak’s is now and always will be the leader for genuine en joyment. The ballot vote is as fol lows on the various hang-outs in the contest: Kollege Klub . 973 Kollege Krawls . 247 Mill Race . 246 Grave Yard.245 Davenports . 30 Spencer’s Butte . 15 Klothes Line . 13 [Carlo, the Kake Eater Kal ol’ Kid: I'm getting a hot kick out of the low down I got on a real place to knock around in during my spare time. It’s Obak’s Kollege Klub, if you know what that means. It’s a swell place, plenty of pool and bil liard tables, a place to eat, and al ways somebody around to help you enjoy it. Better'n anything you ever saw at home. I’ve threw away my old pipe, on account of Obak selling me one that beats anything I ever puffed at. Any kind of tobacco you want he’s got, and when you want swell smokes for a Tux party, or reg’lars for use, he’s got them too. Say I got a real surprise for the old man coming up this month. You know so far reports of my grades have been pretty bum, but since I’ve been getting a little kick out of life, darned if studying ain’t coming sort of natural, and yesterday I got three II’g on papers I got back. That don’t sound like me, but its a fakt. Here’s my pitcher, Kal, that’s to go in the Oreganda, which shows how I feel since startin’ in to enjoy my self at the Kollege Klub. Yours till the Klub Kollapses, Karlo. Our Hall of Fame The Krier decided this week to deviate from the usual policy of just nominating one man for this depart ment. Thus several will be put up, and readers are asked to guess which one. The one getting the most guesses will be thrown in the mill race. 1. The young duke from Dufer who thinks that a Tuxedo outfit is a can of tobacco and a pipe; who thinks that the Pentathlon is a local eating fraternity; and who took an adver tisement asking for a job to the Ad building. 2. The pampered Prince from Port land, who cried when he got mud spattered on his golf sox; who is so bored with himself that he turns to women for diversion; and whose best joke is “A pear tree was made for two.” 3. The young man who came down here to get the most out of his col lege career and out of life; who stu dies hard and plays hard; and who, when he wants to give his brain a rest, comes into Obak’s Kollege Klub, and at the Bame time enjoys the cleanest livest recreation, a game of billiards or pool.

Without knowing it you turn over in your mind, his knowledge of values, his appreciation for service, his de light in beauty and the kind of a business man he is in general. €]J When the passerby sees a Nash in front of a home he recognizes the shrewdness and judgment that would characterize the own er. It places him by his choice of cars, as a man who would lead in affairs of life and not follow. Performance Counts Eugene Nash Company
