‘TINY’ SHIELDS ON ROAD
TO RECOVERY
Of considerable interest to stu
dents of the University is the re
cent word received from the south
that “Tiny” Shields, former Oregon
grid captain, is now recovering
from an injury of the back receiv
ed while playing football 'several
years ago.
As the result of a benefit foot
ball , game played -last Christmas
the entire proceeds going into a
fund to aid “Tiny to secure a new
back,” “Tiny” Shields is now at
Camp Kearney and is finally re
covering from the injury which has
kept him flat on his back for many
months.
Camp Kearney is near San Diego
and is a United States army hos
pital. The doctors there are giv
ing “Tiny” a sunshine treatment,
supplemented by violet rays. As
the result of this care, his back is
rapidly healing and there is a strong
chance for his complete recovery.
A fund of $5038.71 was raised by
friends of “Tiny” Shields through
out the state, University, and many
contributions came from all over
the United States. The students of
the University played an impor
tant part in the success in raising
the fund, by contributing over
$1100.
“Tiny’s” turn for the better is
evidenced in the extract from a let
ter received by C. O. Chatterton,
treasurer of the Tiny Shield’s fund,
from Shields on Monday; it fol
lows:
“I have been getting along pret
ty well, although complications
have arisen which may keep me in
bed a while longer. However, I
am gaining in strength a little
every day.
“I wish to thank the other mem
bers of the committee and your
self, and all who helped in that
Christmas-day game and who
bought tickets for it, for everything
they have done for me. My mother
is here with me and will stay un
til I can get on my feet again.”

“RED” GRANGE RECEIVES
MOVIE OFFERS
The movies began calling to Har
old “Rod” Grange, football star
and hero of American boyhood, ac
cording to reports sent out from
filmland. “Red”, who was the
outstanding gridiron star of the
past season, has submitted to mov
ies tests and in the parlance of the
professional registered with a
“wow.” A “wow” in the movies is
the old time “howling success.”
It is rumored that the all-Ameri
can quarterback as offered $300,
000 for four pictures in which he
would be starred as a gridiron he
ro. Now “Red” comes out with the
statement that he contemplates
finishing his studies at Illinois be
fore deciding on a career other
than that of the gridiron.
Grange expects to work as an
ice delivery man during the summer
vacation. At present he weighs ap
proximately 175 pounds, five
pounds over his football weight.
The star quarterback also is sup
erintending his younger brother’s
debut on the gridiron. Garland, a
freshman at Illinois, according to
“Red” is an even faster man than
he himself is.
Whether or not Grange will
again be able to set the pace
when fall practice starts.
WAYNE MUNN DROPS
FROM LIMELIGHT
Wayne “Big” Munn, who held
the world’s wrestling championship
for three months, has dropped from
the limelight about as fast as he
came to the front. Since Munn
lost to Stanislaus Zbyszko, the 55
year old Pole, the former collegian
has not participated in a match.
Now word comes that Joe Steeli
er, scissors artist, and Zbyszko) the
present heavyweight wrestling title
holder, will meet at- St. Louis,
Decoration Day, May 30, for a $50.
000 purse and the title under terms
of articles which were drawn up.
If “Big” Munn had de
feated the Pole he would have been
in line for several $50,000 matches.
He was matched with “Strangler”
Lewis for a big purse but the bout
fell through after Munn’s defeat.

COCKRANE SUCCESS
AS CATCHER
Gordon “Mickey” Cockran> former
student of Boston university, who
was a catcher for the Portland team
of the Pacific coast league, is a
“howling” success with Philadel
phia of the American league. Cock
rane, who is gathering his share of
hits, has added new pep to the
team and Connie Mack’s aggrega
tion is now leading the American
circuit.
During his college days Coek
rane was predicted to be a star in
the big leagues and he was dis
covered by Tom Turner, who at that
time was scouting for Portland.
"Micky” played for the Beavers
last year and he was ready for fast
! company this season.
Cockrarie’s success may be partly
1 due to his college spirit and pep.
! Although Cochrane is not a finished
j catcher he has been able to beat
j Perkins, one of the best catchers
| of the league, out of hf5 berth.
! More null probably be heard from
I “Mickey” before his playing days
! are over.
! COUSINS’ MATCH REFEREED
BY UNCLE
For the first time since the event
ivas started 70 years ago the recent
inter-varsity racquet match in
singles between Oxford and Cam
bridge, played at London, 'estab
lished a record in that the contest
ants were cousins and the referee
an uncle of the two rivals.
The two contestants were C. S.
Crawley, of Oxford. and L. G.
Crawley of Cambridge, while the
referee was H. F. Crawley, one of
the leading racquet and tennis
players of his generation. C. S.
Crawley won the match by three
games to one. The only game
which he lost was the first after
he had what seemed a sure winning
advantage of 13-3, his cousin stag
ing such a rally as to pull out a
victory at 16-13. Thereafter, how
ever, the Oxford Crawley always
held the upper hand, winning three
straight games, 15-8, 15-3, 15-8.

Idealistic Opera House

of seating over three thousand peo
ple, and has, beside the main floor,
two balconies and a gallery. There
are no stairways, but inclines that
lead to the different floors, so that
in case of a panic no injuries would
result. There is an entrance hall
that leads to the main floor and
first balcony, and another for the
second balcony and gallery, so that
they will never be over-crowded.
| Also for each floor there are beau
! tifullv decorated lounging rooms,
; with brass Buddhas, burning in-!
| cense and richly embroidered hang
| ings.
I On the outside of the building on
either side and overlooking the
gardens below, are towers where
tea is served between acts. The
entrance is four-doored, with broad
marble steps leading up to it, and
is' guarded on one side by a huge
statue of a four-toed dragon, on
the other by a queer dog-like lion,
The plans for the opera house,
which are painted in water-colors,
are hung in the gallery of the
architecture building, with the
other plans of the city.

GROUND MEN PRAISE
FISHER’S EFFICIENCY
No one has been obtained as yet
to succeed H. M. Fisher as super
intendent of grounds for the Uni
versity. Mr. Fisher will leave dur
ing the first part of July for Oak
land, California.
“I have enjoyed mv work at the
University.” he said, “But have
been here for so many years that I
reel l must nave a change. 1 have
not decided what I will do in Oak
land, but intend to locate there.”
STARS FROM QRCHESUS
Grace Sullivan Takes Part
Of Pierrette's Lover
Besides the two dramatic inter
vals, “A Night’s Mardi Gras” and
“The Lake of the Swans,” a series
of solo and group dances will be
presented at the Dance Drama Wed
nesday evening.
Much of the dance talent for the
Drama has been taken from Orch
esus, an advanced dancing group.
Neva Service, whose solo numbers
will interpret the death song at the
close of a swan’s life, is a member
of the organization. Augusta Ham
ilton, another member of the Orch
esus group who is also well known
on the campus for her powers of
mimicry, will appear as the irre
sponsible Pierrette in “A Night’s
Mardi Gras.” Pierrette’s lover,
whose white costume stands out in
vivid contrast to the blaze of many
colors worn by the Mardi Gras
crowd, is perhaps the most strik
ing figure of all. Grace Sullivan,
famous on the campus as a star
athlete, has the part of Pierrette’s
lover. Having discovered in her
last year of college that she pos
sessed a natural talent in interpre
tative dancing, this appearance
Wednesday night will be both Miss
Sullivan’s debut in the dance world
and her farewell appearance in
University events.
The few reserved seat tickets for
the Tri-Art event left at the Co-op
will probably not last over today.
General admission tickets may be
had at both Laraway’s and the Co
op.
Track Meet With 0. A. C.
At 2:30 to Display Fight;
Aggie Squad Determined
(Continued from page one)
wind doesn’t come up on the
straight, speed personified will be
the order, of the day.
Chick Rosenburg, captain of the
varsity, in a workout last night
regained partially his old form in
the pole vault. He has been vault
ing near 1.1 feet and he hopes to
do nearly that well in the meet.
“Chick” will probably be high
point man of the meet with good
places in the javelin, pole vault,
and broad jump which he has sel
dom failed to make.
The 440 is going to be the ter
rific yard eater of the afternoon
with Big Jim Kinney, versus Barn
hart of O. A. C. A sprint from the
pistol crack to the tape and the
best man wins. Price and Ager will
be close on the heels of the leaders.
Trio is Formidable
Watch that trio of sprinters. Kv
tra, Flannagan and Westerman.
They are flashes of no mean caliber
and this is the first year of var
sity competition.
Walt Kelsey took a light work
out last evening after five days
in the infirmary. He’s still -un
steady but it is probable that he
will enter the hurdle Taces. He will
not enter his other events. Pen
Wilbur is ill with a cold and will
be out for the meet. Ivan Houston,
his last chance to compete for the
varsity, wrecked by a bad leg, is
unable to enter the half mile. Bill
will announce the third man in the
event today. The man to take Wil
j bur’s place in the relay will also
be given out today.
I Proc Flannagan will be compet
I ing for the first time this season
! on the excellent pits on Hayward
| field in a conference meet. It’s
hard to tell how far lie will jump
| over his mark of 2.1 feet 10 1-2
inches at Seattle on rather soft run
ways. Flannagan looks to be the
best broad jumper on the coast this
year.
Relay Team in Two Races
That record breaking four-mile
| relay team will be running in the
two distance races. Clayton, Mason
and Butts against Tetz, Neider
meier, and Jeffries. Keech and
Bell will enter the two-mile against
Holder, Keating and Barnes.
The hurdles will probably be fast
on the fast track. Cleaver, Kelsey,
Carruthers, Tuck and Staley will
hold up the honors in both stick
events.
All students attending the track
meet must present student body
tickets for admission.
