Boxing Bouts,
Cock Fighting
Bring Thrills
Multnomah Club Fencers
Win at Smoker From
Oregon Swordsmen
Abramson—Malcolm Tilt
Lacks in Gore
The men’s smoker held Saturday
night resulted in a wide variety of
entertainment, ranging from fenc
ing to a burlesque boxing match,
and including cock fights, horse and
rider contest, and some fast box
ing exhibitions.
In the curtain raiser, the Mult
nomah fencing team earned a double
victory over Oregon representatives
by winning in bouts, 5 to 4, and in
points, 36 to 32. Cuts, touches, par
ries and thrusts came thick and fast
on both sides, and the result wa*S) in
doubt until the final encounter. The
men in the iron masks for Oregon
were Buchanan, Wilhelm and Oaley.
The club line-up included L. Pcs
znecker and Isherwood.
Three Rounds Torrid
Irving Pelz of Oregon drew with
Ole Hanson of O. A. C. in the head
line boxing event. These boys went
at it hammer and tongs throughout
three torrid rounds' and got a big
hand from the crowd for their ef
forts.
Hanson out-boxed Pelz in the
opening stanza, landing a hard
right that staggered the Oregon man
just before the whittle, but the lat
ter came back strong in the two
remaining chukkers and milled his
way to a draw by a two handed at
tack to his opponent’s body.
The highly advertised Abramson
Malcolm contest was somewhat of
a dud as no gore was spilt and no
stretchers were needed. One Round
Sol, armed with a typewriter, en
tered the arena and typed some
scathing righst and lefts to Mal
colm ’s vital spots, but desisted
when a baseball bat found its way
into the president’s corner. The
round ended with tho boys in a fond
embrace, after having dono their
boxing with a hammer and nails.
Quartet wins Applause
Tex Nowby and Frank Buchter
drew in the opening fistic contests,
and were followed by A1 Smith,
Paul Peek, Ted Larsen and Fred
West, who dispensed harmony to the
delight of all assembled.
Mel Green and Beldon Babb
slugged their way through a spirit
ed bout foaturod by a knockdown
apiece and Morrie Collings took a
clean cut decision from Bill Bamber,
having his opponent on queer street
in the second canto. Charley Daw
son, former Oregon boxing instruct
or, refereed all the matches.
Battle Royals O. K.
The battle royals afforded the
most action of the evening. In the
first, Ray Jo0t and Merrill Hagan,
Dolts, hammered their way to a
slashing victory "over Mervyn Bolin
ke and Art Hamilton, Sigma Nu’s.
Behnke was the first to hit the
floor, and when .Tost and Hagan
combined to pummel Hamilton, ar
biter Muntz mercifully called a
halt.
Roily Wilson and Ted Pope, A.
T.O.took two out of three knock
down and drag-outs from Street and
Winters, a fighting duo of game
cocks from Sigma Chi house in the
second encounter.
The heavyweight match between
Trving Flegol and George Burnell,
of the Betas, and Tony Greer and
Carl Klippel, Kappa Sigs, furnished
■enough excitement and action to
please the most exacting. The Kap
pa Kigw took all three rounds, but
the platform was extended to stop
the big boys as they crushed to the
canvas.
McCulloch wins Cup
Ttalpli McCulloch, A. T. 0„ took
the cock fighting championship ami
the accompanying silver cup by
downing Clal DeMott, Sigma Nu, in
u challenge match after he had sur
vived the eliminations. The Beta
team composed of Jack Jones and
Jerry Gunther won the horse and
jockey competition, successfully
downing all opposition.
The smoker was greeted by a
large attendance, and those in charge
p’in to make it an annual affair.
Frank Riggs, promoting the box
ing matches, lined up an excellent
card on short notice.

The committee reconvened a high
tuition for out-state undergrad
uate students.
The committee adopted a number
of resolutions expressing its appreci
ation of being permitted such close
contact with the University’s im
mediate problems, of the assistance
and co-operation of the faculty, and
the entertainment accorded it, and
the co-operation of the University
in setting the coming Semi-Centen
nial celebration in conjunction with
Homecoming at the wish of the al
umni.
Visit Held Valuable
“The visit of this committee really
starts something interesting and
worth while, for it brings into close
contact a disinterested body of peo
ple who are yet greatly interested
in the welfare of the University,”
declared Jeanette Calkins, secretary
of the alumni and of the visiting
committee. F. Harold Young, presi
dent of the association, also ex
presses himself as greatly pleased
with the venture and its success.
Committee Members Listed
Members of this year’s commit
tee were: Mrs Charles W. Robison,
of Astoria, representing the alum
ni from western Oregon; Henry N.
Fowler, Bend, as the member from
eastern Oregon; Dean Alfred Pow
ers of the Portland Extension di
vision as a faculty representative;
Vernon Vawter, who was away on
business had been appointed from
Multnomah county, but Fred Fisk,
member of the board of regents,
served in his place and F. Harold
Young, ex-officio member by virtue
of his presidency of the alumni asso
ciation.
While on the campus the commit
tee held conferences with some of
the most prominent students, was
host to the deans of schools at Ho
tel Osborn, dined with a number
of the faculty members at Hendricks
hall and attended assembly.

Two composing that 'old race horse,
Spark Plug, gave the cops under An

into the dressing rooms of the gym

silver to wheedle Mildred Onslow,
who wore the balge of the chief
of police of Eugene, into letting
them stay for the performance.
The judges, Mrs. Tsterly, Mrs.
George Gerlinger, Miss Gertrude
Talbot and Miss Maude Kerns, were
the kids of the party with their
knee socks and riohjns in their
hai.\
Although all the mon»y from the
door receipts and sale of Dixies has
not been turned in, Annette Heck
man, treasurer of Women’s League,
estimated the amount realized from
the affair at $275. This money will
be applied to the foreign scholar
ship fund of the League.
Government
(Continued from page one)
ty of private investments, while ex
pressing honeyed words on the sanc
tity of Haitian independence and
our moral obligations to the Hai
tian people is a piece of sheer hypo
crisy unworthy of the American
nation and calculated to lower still
farther American prestige among
the Lntin-American states. That
such conditions exist is generally
unknown to the American people,
due to the press censorship in Hai
ti, the unwillingness of the Senate
to listen to appeals, such as a paper
from a prominent Haitian citizen
presented by Senator King a few
weeks ago, and the official attitude
of the government, which, in answer
to criticisms, (mints to the official
reports of General Russell, who is
of course a government, official and
concerned with the justification of
acts during his reginre.
Thus are the blessings of Ameri
can democracy distributed among
our unwilling neighbors.

Freshmen Commence
Practice for Baseball
First call for freshman baseball
practice was_ issued yesterday by
Harry Ellinger, frosh baseball coach.
The first practice is to be held on
the new freshman field which is
located just behind the varsity field.
It has just been completed and
should be in good condition as soon
as the ground settles. Practice will
be held there every afternoon at
3:30. Coach Ellinger and Don Park,
major in the school of physical edu
cation, will direct the practice.
Until yesterday about thirty men
had registered for frosh baseball
ond others are expected to turn out
for the practice today. There is
plenty of room for competition for
the positions on the team.
The schedule of games to be
played is being arranged. Games
are to be played with the varsity,
the Rooks and probably some other
outside teams.
Classes to Nominate
May 10, Elect May 13
At a meeting of the various class
presidents and some of the class ad
visors held in Dean H. Walker’s of
fice recently, it was decided to hold
the class nominations 'of officers of
the freshman, sophomore and junior
classes on the same day, and hold
the election on 'one day. This 'will
avoid the confusion of three sep
erate elections.
The class nominations will be
taken verbal on Tuesday, May 11;
and the election will be by ballot
on Thursday, May 13. The polls will
be open from 10 to 2 'on * Thurs
day in Villard hall.
Secretaries Asked
To Send Officer List
Secretaries of clubs are asked to
send in promptly a list of the new
officers of their respective organiza
tions, to facilitate the keeping of
up-to-date records in the Dean of
Women’s office, by Miss Georgia
Benson, secretary to Dean Esterly.
The constant change of officers of
the various clubs, said Miss Benson,
makes it very difficult to keep ac
curate records in her office.
HOW about 'a creamy
waffle served with gtold
en butter syrup, and a cup
of piping-hot coffee? —
Sure good.

foot-two chorus going through their j
play from the kick-off to the touch

not go alone, should get their dates j

INTRODUCED IN

BY GRAHAM’S
TJJELLSTERN OF PARIS introduced
these unique sandals, and every smart
Globe Trotter en route to the Riviera
packed them away in trunks labelled for
the Azure Shore.
They were quite the sensatiom at Deau
ville. New York soon imported them for
Florida and Cuba, and now Graham’s in
troduce them to Eugene, just about to
break out into golf, tennis and the other
Summer sports.
Minnehaha in her soft moccasins never '
felt mtore lithe than the wearer of these
new sandals. In leather, cleverly fashion
ed with woven leather throngs across the
toes that give with each step, then imme
diately slip trimly into place. A cut-out
back, an ankle strap and a low heel com
plete this engaging sports shoe.
In Natural Leather for Women $7.00 !
For Men $7.50
