EQUIPMENT ARRIVES FOR FENCING CLASSES Again the words “Parry and Thrust” can be heard coming from one of the upper rooms of the men’s gymnasium, as fencing will come into its own this week. Classes in fencing will be resumed this week after a number of weeks absence. Fencing was stopped about the middle of the winter term because of the breakage of equipment. Eight new foils have been re ceived and more are on the way so the ancient sport is being revived again. Classes in fencing will be held on Monday, Wednesday and Friday afternoons at 4 o’clock. Rudy Fahl will have charge of the classes and will be assisted by Davidson and John Bell. Classes will be held in the wrestling room because of the large accommodations. Men wishing to sign up for fencing may do so at the office this week. ANNUALGEOLOMP WILL BE NEAR ASHLAND Outdoor Course to Allow Seven Hours Credit Have you the vision to see ro mance in rocks? Are you inter ested in history as read in stones? And have you ever tried map mak ing? Lastly, if these things sound interesting to you, why don’t you come out for the geology camp of fered this summer under the direc tion of Professor Packard? The area, to be studied lies with in the Ashland quadrangle, Oregon, and includes the region of the easternmost range of the Siskiyou mountains, and foothills of the Cas cades. The camp will be located within the headwaters of Bear creek, about ten miles from Ash land. Mount Shasta, Crater Lake, and the Oregon Caves are all eas ily reached from here, and one or more of these localities will be vis ited before the end of the season. The field offers many attractive unsolved problems as well as an un usual variety of interesting geol ogic features. Geologic maps will be made, fol lowing the study of plane table surveying and area mapping, and a field report will be made on the basis of speciments ejected and data secured during the summer session. Although the camp is de signed for upper division and grad uate men in geology, those having one year of work in General geol ogy are invited to present their credentials for consideration. The expenses include transportation to Ashland, the summer session regis tration fee of $12.50, and mainten ance at camp, which, as it is esti mated now, should not exceed $30. The satisfactory completion of this outdoor course g?ves seven hours of credit. ' How does that sound to you who usually labor long hours in stuffy laboratories for a similar reward? And it isn’t officially announced, of course, but we understand that smoking is per mitted on that campus. VIRGINIA JUDY E STEELY WILL SPEAK IN GRESHAM Dean Virginia Judy Esterly, dean of women, left fast Sunday for Gresham, Oregon, where she will speak before the high school stu dent body.

COUNTIES VIE HISTORY CONTEST THREE IN Extension Division Offers Prizes for Essays Lane, Jack, anti Douglass are three counties in the state already aetiyely participating in the local history contests being conducted by the University extension division, according to Mozelle Hair of the di vision who is directing the contests. The contests will close on or about June 1. “The contest really has two ad vantages,” said Miss Hair. “In the first place it stimulates an inter est in local history; while in the second place it teaches the young sters how to write.” Prizes are offered for the best essays in each county. The move ment was started last year, and in dications are that next season it will get over big. The prize win ning essays will be printed in a special issue, of the extension divi sion Monitor—to be known as the local history number. * The extension division is hoping that the interest in local • history will soon develop this into a state wide contest. This will mean that the cream of the essays written on local history in the several coun ties of the state will be pitted against each other. And by a pro cess of selection the prize winning essays of the state will be selected each year. These essays will appear annually in a special number of the Monitor devoted to that pur pose.

Hale, Master Craftsman, Will Speak And Exhibit Handiwork (Continued from page one) mauve sapphires,Indian moonstones, carved Chinese camelians, Mexi can cherry opals and many others, and he has in his exhibit, work not only of his own, but that of other master craftsmen also. A rare combination of a master worker and an interesting speaker, Mr. Hale carries his audience into the intricate realm of the jewel er’s art—the fascination of preci ous and semi-precious stones and enamels, the various metals and their combinations. Letter Praises Speaker A letter from the secretary of | the American Federation of Arts ;says: “I feel that such lectures as 1 Mr. Iiale gives should be of the ut most benefit, inasmuch as he would speak from a craftsman’s view point, and brings to bear upon his 1 subject knowledge bred of experi ! ence, together with the viewpoint of one who both through tempera 1 went and association is sensitive to and aware of the best in art.” Mr. Hhle who has made an ex tended American tour and deliver ed lectures for museums, clubs and colleges from Boston to California, has been making artistic jewelry and enamel since 1907. He was awarded the medal of the Boston Society of Fine Arts and Crafts in 1915. He is at present the Dean of the Craftsmen’s Guild of Mar blehead and vice-president of the Boston Society of Arts and Crafts. The lecture is open to the public and in the evening there will be an exhibition of Mr. Hale’s work in the auditorium. Rainy Weather Damps Baseball Outlook for Oregon Varsity Team (Continued from page one) tion of the possible "swatting” power of the Oregon nine. One of the amusing features of Monday’s practice was the hitting of Susan Campbell hall with a long straight drive from the stick of Lynn Jones. The ball hit between the second and third stories and was one of the longest hits of this year registered b'y an Oregon man. Positions on the varsity nine are fairly well taken care of, with one man for each position. On first base, Rex Adolph has the call .over the other candidates. Adolph, be sides doing a creditable fielding job at first base, is one of the heavy hitters of the squad. How ard Hobson has second well cared for. Hobson is fielding in a regu lar “league” manner and hitting with timely regularity. West Shows Well Fred West appears to have the edge over Troutman at short, and is slated to do the heavy part of that work. West gained consider able experience during his fresh man year and should handle short in varsity style. Either Sam Cook or Lynn Jones will start at third. Should*Cook get the call Friday, Jones no doubt will be shifted to the outfield, as his hitting power is a valuable as set to the team. Behind the home place, either George Mimnaugh or Jack Bliss ilill don the mask for the opener. At present it is about a toss-up as to who will start. From present indications either Williams or Brooks will take up the twirling duties for the Pacific contest, with HAIRCUT? SURE!
