FROSH TUNING UP
TU MEET ROOKS
Yearling Quintet to Battle
Without Westergren
AGGIES GAINING SPEED
Tight Tilts Expected When
Teams Meet This Week
There are only three days left
for the freshmen to take up any
slack that may be present in their
fighting togs before they play the
O. A. 0. rooks in the first of their
two-game series at Corvallis, Fri
day afternoon. In the previous
meeting of the two teams here, the
frosh took both contests by sub
stantial scores. The rooks are re
ported to be a much improved ag
gregation both on the offense and
the defense, however, and their
main purpose is purported to be to
hand the freshmen a thorough trim
ming when they meet over there
February 30 and March 1.
The babes will be without the
assistance of “Swede” Westergren,
their scrappy little forward, who
has been out for the past two weeks
with a broken bone in his foot.
However, the rest of the squad
should be in fairly good condition
for the initial contest with the baby
Aggies. The defeat the frosh re
ceived at the hands of the Ashland
high school quintet shook them up
a bit, and since that time they have
taken their training more seriously
in order to be in shape for the com
ing series.
Fast Subs Available
To replace Westergren, at for
ward, it is probable that Coach
Evans will use either Okerberg or
Chiles. Both the lengthy Okerberg
and the speedy littlte Chiles are
comers, and if they are “on,” will
afford their opponents no little
trouble. The rest of the squad will
probably remain unchanged, with
Westergren at the other forward
position, Flynn at center, and
Kiminki and Reinhart at. the two
guard positions, with Hughes ready
if needed. Flynn has been a con
sistent performer at, center and
should do well in tjio rook game.
Kiminki and Reinhart form a
smooth working combination at
guard, and have proved themselves
among the most valuable men on
the team both because of their
checking and their ability to sneak
down the floor for a ringer now
and then. The flashy Westerman is
playing good ball at forward and, if
he is at his best in the coming
games, should bo sure of several
counters.
Must Show Top Form
All in all, the yearlings this sea
son have a good team, but they
will have to play the best brand
of ball they have put up all season
to keep their slate clean against
the new rook combination, which is
said to be a much faster aggrega
tion than opposed the locals here
before.
STUDENTS FEEL CHARM
OF ‘COVERED WAGON’
(Continued from page one)
—and of getting an appreciation
of the early days that no amount
of reading and only a close asso
ciation with one of the original set
tlers of the Oregon country could
bring.
It was as if a generation moving
rapidly away from the hardships of
the early days, in a period when
there is much gild and sham, were
allowed to breath again the air of
tbe forties and perhaps to learn a
few forgotten lessons from the hero
ism of the men who fought and
died that Oregon might be settled.

TENNIS, AS A COLLEGE SPORT, SAID
TO BE MAKING RAPID STRIDES
IN ALL PARTS OF COUNTRY
■Veiv York City, X. Y.— (t\ S.
Tennis association)— Tennis, as a
college sport, is making rapid
^ strides tliroughout all sections of
j the country. Botli as an inter
j /arsity competitive sport and as £
means of recreation for undergradu
j ates, the court game is assuming
a popular place among the leading
I intercollegiate athletic activities of
| the day. Reports received from
every section of the country indi
! cate that this popularity and acti
| vity is growing apace on the
Pacific Coast, in the South, the
I Southwest, the Central section of
the United States and along the
Canadian border, as well as in the
blast.
Data collected by the Intercol
legiate association in conjunction
with the United States Lawn Ten
nis association has developed a
mass of interesting information
bearing upon this development. A
(juestionnaire was sent out to the
leading universities and colleges of
I the nation' requesting replies to
1 specific queries. Replies have been
! received to date from 102 insti
tutions.
Of these, 27 report that tennis
is a major competition. In six other
I colleges it is classified as a minor
sport carrying the award of a minor
j varsity letter. Reports from some
eight universities indicate that the
athletic board of control, or similar
; governing body, are considering
■ proposals to make tennis a major
sport. Six institutions report the
presence of tennis coaches, whose
J duties include the instruction of
tennis team candidates in the finer
points of the game. Almost with
| out exception, all these colleges
| and universities state that they
have tennis teams consisting of
| from four to ten players who en
gage in intervarsity team competi
tions and in one or more sectional
or national intercollegiate cham
pionship tournaments.
These statistics regarding the
spread of tennis as a college sport
may be taken ns a testimonial to
the splendid qualities and appeal
of the game. In addition, they also
place in a prophetic light a state
ment made more than four years
ago by Julian S. Myrick, then vice
president of t.he U. S. L. T. A., who
said in a discussion regarding the
desirability of fostering tennis as
a college sport:
“That brings us to the point which
is of fundamental importance in con
sidering this whole question, and
which sometimes is overlooked namely,
that of all the sports which appeal
to those of school and college age,;
tennis is the only one that can be
learned early in life and kept up for
many years. Baseball, track, foot
ball, rowing—all these have their
place, but at best that place is limit
ed by considerations of time and op
portunity. No matter how good an
athlete may be in college, in the vast
majority of eases his chance to enjoy
such sports ends with his graduation.
The average man can count on the
fingers of one hand the men in his
acquaintance, five years out of col
lege, who take any active part in
such games.
“Therein, lies their fault, in the
opinion of those qualfied to speak as
experts as regarding present condi
tions of business ami homelife. They
do not stay with a man during the
years when they could do him the
most good, and that is why the men
who know the possibilities of tennis
are so keen to spread its gospel.
Anyone can play it, without expensive
ec|uipment or great outlay of time and
money. Wherever a man goes, in the
civilized world, he is likely to find
tennis courts, as it is the one game
which seems to be known everywhere.
Tf he begins as a youngster he will
have a means of health-giving exercise
and recreation which possesses a de
finate value to him, because he can
play it anywhere, any time.”
Tennis was also the topic of con
siderable discussion at the annaul
meeting of the Society of Directors
of Physical Education in Colleges,
held at Atlanta in December in con
nection with the annual meeting of
the National Collegiate Athletic asso
ciation. At that time a score of
physical directors reported that the
game was growing so rapidly in pop
ularity among the students of their
colleges that it was almost impossi
ble to supply a sufficient number of
courts and other facilities necessary
to meet the demand. William H.
Coer, director of physical education,
in an article relative to the applica
tion of exercises of Harvard stated
that tennis was second in popularity
among the freshmen of recent year
classes who enrolled for exercise.

‘OLD OREGON’ TO HAVE
HUMOR DEPARTMENT
Prizes of $2.50 Will be Awarded
for Ten Ber.t Pieces Turned
in Before March 5
The March issue of “Old Oregon”
is going to have a department of
humor, the material for which is
to come from the students. Prizes
of $2.50 are to be awarded for the
10 best pieces of humor, either with
or without art work. So far, sev
eral bits of art of a rather high
class have been turned in, but more
is needed. March 5 is the deadline
for submitting contributions.
Suggestions are wanted by the
editor, Grace Kdgington, for a stu
dent to edit the new department.
Several opinions have been ex
pressed, but Miss Kdgington pre
fers to hear the sentiments of a
larger group of students.
The pieces of humor may be
jokes and anecdotes, and do not
have to be local in content. How
ever, the college point of view is
desirable, for the magazine is read
largely by students and alumni.

TESTING MACHINE HAS
INTERESTNG HISTORY
Steel for War Use Tried
by Valuable Apparatus
The two hundred thousand pound
testing machine, to be used by the de
partment of mechanics and astron
omy in its new laboratory, has an in
teresting history, according to a re
cent story told about it by Professor
E. H. McAlister, head of the depart
ment. At the present time the ma
chine is stored in one of the
University’s store rooms, but soon it
will take its place as a concrete
testing machine in the laboratory
work on strength of materials.
The machine was purchased by the
University in 1905 for use in the en
gineering school. It has been used
several times since its original mount
ing, serving mostly in the capacity of
a useless knock about.
“Realizing its immense value,”
saiil Professor McAlister, “the gov
ernment was able to use it during the
war. It was shipped clear back to
Pennsylvania and used in tesung the
steel which went into war use. It is
said that steel was tested on "it 24
hours a day.
“After the war4t was shipped back
to the caftipus and restored. And
now, after several years of storage,
it is to be mounted once more and
put into usage.
“This type of machine is scarce,”
he said. “The fact that the govern
ment shipped it so far across the
continent illustrates that point. The
classroom work will be to use it for
testing the concrete beams made in
the laboratory course in the strength
of materials class.”

will improve your shave in three ways:
First, the lather is heavier and holds the
moisture in against the beard. Quicker and
more thorough softening of the beard results.
Second, the razor glides more easily through '
the Williams -softened beard because Williams
lather lubricates the skin. Lastly, an ingredient
in Williams keeps the skin in good-condition
no matter how heavy your beard nor how
