FRESHMAN NINE TO MEET ROOKS Contest Will be Played Here Saturday at 10 PROSPECTS ARE BETTER Baby Beavers Have Strong Group of Players The freshman ball tossers will receive the acid test this weekend when they meet the speedy Aggie rook nine here. The time and date of the game has been changed to 10 o ’clock on Saturday morning. The frosli and • rooks will play a four-game series with two of the contests here and two at Corvallis. Frosli Work Hard Smarting from the clean-cut de feat that was handed them by the Salem high team, the babes are working harder than ever to get in shape for the coming tilts with their rivals. In a practice game held Monday with the University high, the frosh batted their younger opponents all over the lot in a lop-sided contest. Their form was just the reverse of their showing last Friday, and if they continue to pound the apple as they did then, the prospects will look much better against the rooks. The baby Beavers are said to have a strong aggregation this year, and it will take a greatly . improved frosh squd to take the series from them. Shake-up Is Expected Because of the number of players on the squad who have become in eligible, and their ragged showing Friday, a considerable shake-up is expected in the frosh lineup before the contest Saturday. The loss of Kiminki at short, and the big hole on second has left the infield in somewhat of a bad way. Bex Adolph has been playing good ball on first, and Jones has lots of pep on third, but the other positions are more or less of a toss-up. West stands a chance to play second, as he can cover ground and is a fair fielder. Miller is a likely looking man for “the "short stop position. He is flashy and with a little steadying should make good. The outfield is strong, and the infield remains as the one division of the team that needs bolstering. A decided shift must be made here before the freshmen can be in a position to hand the rooks a wal loping. DR, A. E. CASWELL COMPILES SYLLABUS Booklet Changes Method of Teaching Physics A syllabus, said to be something entirely new, at least, in the sub ject. matter of physics, written and compiled by Dr. A. E. Caswell of | the physics department of the Uni versity, is to be used in the courses in general physics starting next , fall. “One of the principal fea tures of my syllabus,” said its author, “is that it is organized so as to get away from the dry bones of mechanics at the beginning of the year, and to get into facts and fundamental principles. ” Physics, depending half upon mathematics as it does, is a rather hard subject to present. It is very logical, and once one has begun teaching at a certain point he must keep up until the principle is thor oughly covered. The played-up point about Dr. Caswell’s syllabus is that it tries to lay down some of the fundamental principles first, and then goes into the dry bones of mechanics and mathematics, and so forth. The syllabus is designed to work in conjunction with the new library system to be installed in the physics department beginning next fall. Each student will be given a copy of the syllabus at ^ CLASSIFIED ADS^ ffc ; ? timsc, 60; 1 v-«eh, I! 26- t#n»t be limited to 6 lines: over this limit 6c per line.

UNIVERSITY WOMEN ATTEND CONVENTION Dean Virginia Judy Esterly, Uni versity representative to the 24th annual convention of the Oregon Federation of Women’s Clubs, and Winifred Graham and Maurine Bu chanan, delegates from Women’s league of the University, arrived in Oregon City Monday evening.

ME SISTERS TO BE SITE OF GEOLOGY CAMP Region Affords Excellent Study of Volcanoes The geological summer camp of the University will be held this year in the Three Sisters region from June 18 to July 16. The camp is open to all men who have a knowledge of the elements of geol ogy. The course will include 10 days of instruction in the elements of geological field methods and pane table surveying; two weeks in de tailed mapping of the geology in the vicinity of the Sisters - and short trips to nearby places of in terest; and a concluding trip from the Sisters to Bend, south along the eastern flank of the Cascades to Crescent, and westward over the entire Cascade range via Oakridge, to Eugene. According to Dr. Edwin T, Hodge, professor of economic geol ogy, this region affords one of the finest areas to study general geol ogy iu the state of Oregon. In addition to this, it secures a camp ing site amid ideal scenic and climatic surroundings. The area is unexcelled for the study of vol canoes, glaciers, lava fields, in ad dition to the fundamentals of geol ogy For the completion of the work at camp and a written report, seven University hours are offered. Expenses will not exceed $50. TWO OREGON ALUMNAE TO TEACH IN CANTON Tlie appointment of Miss Wave Lesley and Miss Gertrude Tolle to the college of arts and sciences at Canton Christian college, Canton, China, puts four members of the alumni of the University on that staff. Walter K. Belt and Miss Helen Hall are the other two mem bers who are at present teaching at Canton, and Miss Amy Dunn, former house mother, is. connected with the college in giving assis tance in the Overseas school. A recent letter from the assis tant secretary of the trustees of Canton college to Prof. E. E. De Cou reads in part as follows: “We are very glad to have so many representatives from Oregon, and we have been thinking that we should like to enlist the coopera tion of the University to start some move looking toward Canton Christian college as a center for Oregon-in-China. James M. Henry, vice-president of the college, re cently had an interview with Del bert Oberteuffer, in which they discussed such a possibility. "We know of the splendid ef forts of the students and the alumni in their campaign to help meet the needs of the University, and we are hopeful that in the near future their interests may be gained for the support of our work in China.” Get the Classified Ad habit.

Paul Patterson, Fred %Yhitaker and David Husted were witnesses for the prosecution. CONSTANCE MILLER'S RECITAL WELL LIKED Last Group of Songs Shows Soprano’s Best Work By E. C. The graduation recital of Con stance Miller, soprano, given last night at Alumni hall, was very well rendered and much appreciated. Her voice is very sweet and clear, and has a wide range with reserve power. She .appears to lack the confidence which comes with ex perience. The first two selections, Nina, by Pergolesi, and Care Selve, by Han del, were weakened somewhat by Miss Miller’s lack of self .confi dence. The last piece in the first group, A Pastoral, by Carey, showed to advantage her tone range, and she handled the various moods portrayed in the selection quite ably. , Her most difficult number was an Aria, “Here Is the Usual Place,” from Carmen, by Bizet. This was very well received, as was the French group, consisting of two of Dupare’s compositions, “Soupir” and “Extase,” and “Ariette,” by Vidal. The best-liked group, how ever, was the last—four English selections, on which she did her best work, and which were delight ful. These, were “Nocturne,” by Chadwick; “A Song of Thanksgiv ing,” by Allitsen; “The Wind’s in the South,” by Scott; and “Song of the Open,” by La Forge. Bernice Yeo, a senior in the school of music, accompanied Miss Miller, and presented Chopin’s Polonaise in A Flat. Her technique was excellent and there was a great deal of force in her execu tion of the difficult passages—the brilliant rendition of which make this selection so pleasing. Miss Miller is a student of John B. Siefert, instructor in the music department.
