TRUCK TRYOUTS
ARE WEDNESDAY
Varsity Team Will Meet
U. of W. This Week
FRESHMEN TO GO NORTH
Coach Hayward Predicts
Hard Competition
Tryouts will be held Wednesday
afternoon to determine both the
varsity and freshmen members of
the teams that will represent Ore
gon this weekend in the two track
and field meets. The varsity team
will meet the University of Wash
ington men here; while the fresh
men will migrate to Portland for
a two-day competition with the
Rose City high schools.
Coach Hayward stated ho was
well satisfied with the showing of
the Oregon men at the relay car
nival at Seattle Saturday, and,
from the showing made by the
northern school, predicted a hard
meet for bis team this weekend.
The Washington squad is especially
strong in the distance races.
Captain Ferry Coming
In the quarter-mile, there are
throe men who are credited with
Tunning that distance in slightly
over 50 seconds. Captain Ed Ferry
of the Washington team and his
Tunning mates, Tupper, Applegate
and Hathaway, were the competi
tors who nosed out Oregon’s mile
relay team in the meet last Satur
day. With the Oregon men on
their home lot and in a dual meet,
the boys will give them keener
competition, to say the least.
Washington also has a pair of
two milers in King and McGinnis,
who have proven themsolvos dis
tance men of first class caliber.
King is also a miler. In tho
weights, Washington has a man
who, in the light of Hartranft’s
achievements down at Stanford,
does not rate so high, but will give
any of the shot-putters of the
northern schools real competition.
Egtvedt has heaved the shot
around 44 feet consistently in his
competitions this spring; he per
forms about as well with the jave
lin and discus. Washington has
four half-milers who took second in
this event last Saturday; O. A. C.'a
highly touted quartet won, while
Oregon took a third. Time: 8
minutes, 5 5-10 seconds.
Washington Weak In Sprints
Washington is weak in the
sprints and hurdles; but then Ore
gon has no outstanding men for
these rnces, consequently, compe
tition will be about even. Wash
ington has a crew of milers who
are making around 4:115; Oregon
has men in Keating, Totz and Me
Coll, who, if they are right, will
be ablo to give these men a work
out—although a two-miler or two
muBt be picked also.
In the jumps and polovault,
Washington has no men who are in
the champion class, so with Spea
row, Roseuburg, and Eby working
right, the Oregon team has a
chance to pile up a few points.
Meet Is Opening One
This is the opening meet for the
varsity crew and will givo the
followers of track an opportunity
to see tho Oregon athletes perform
ing under fire. With the practice
gathered from the weekly meets
held during the last two terms, the
men should not suffer from stage
fright. Sixteen men will bo al
lowed to compete from each school.
PROF. E. E. DeCOU IS
HEAD OF COMMITTEE
Professor E. E. DeCou, of the
University mathematics department,
has been selected chairman of the
highway beautification committee,
appointed by the Eugene chamber of
commerce to improve tho appearance
of the county highways. Three Uni
versity alumni are also serving on
tho committee. They are Judge E.
O. Potter, Mrs. E. E. Beau anil Rob
ert E. Prescott. Ttr.U .S . Kent, a
physician of Eugene, is tho fifth
member of the committee.
A survey of the county to deter
mine where the improvements shall
be started will be the first work of
the committee. Removal of unsightly
buildings, fences and sign boards is
the first part of the program. The
cooperation of the University in im
proving eertuin parts of the campus
on the highway will be asked, Pro
feasor TfeOou stated yesterday. The
program of beautification will prob
ably include the planting of tree*
along the highway later.
TRANSIT OF PLANET
MERCURY TO BE SEEI\
On Wednesday of this week
there will be a transit of th
planet Mercury. According t
Prof. E. H. McAlister, head of th
University astronomy department
Mercury will be between the earth
and the sun. It will appear to
cross the disk of the sun. The
planet, of course, merely goes
around the center of the solar
system.
“These transits are more or less
important events in the astron
omical world,” said Professor Mc
Alister. “A proportion between
the transit of Mercury and Venus,
and Mercury and the sun, is one
way of/ measuring the distance
from the earth to the sun. This
method formerly' was used almost
entirely in measuring the distance,
but since later discoveries havo
been applied, astronomers have not
used this transit method of meas
uring the distance from the earth
to the sun.”
The sun is so bright and Mer
cury is so small that it will require
special astronomical equipment to
see the transit from Eugene.
