Hayward Comments On Stanford Track Conditions Notable Achievements of Former Athletes Recalled by Mentor BY WEBSTER JONES “Stanford has the best balanced track team I ever saw down south. If one man fell down in an event there was always someone there to take his place—they just couldn’t be beaten,” said Bill Hayward, var sity coach, upon his return from California, where he refereed the premier track and field event of the Pacific coast in the Stanford California track meet. Bill was chosen on the recommend ation of Walt Christie, California coach, and Dink Templeton, Stan ford coach, as the best man to ref eree the affair. In the past, there has been great difficulty in getting competent judges, but the decisions rendered by Hayward last Saturday produced no squawking for the first time in many years. Hayward’s 25 years at Oregon anl his experi ence at four Olympic games ably qualified him for the job. “The greatest race of the day was probably run by Richardson, of Stanford in the half-mile, which he won in 1:53.8,” said Hayward, “The way Richardson won this par ticular race was contrary to all rules of running and if he had run it as was usually figured he would prob ably have lost. Richardson, a rath er slight man with an unusually long stride, was running fourth with Boyden, of California, leading at the 660-yard mark. But on the turn, instead of waiting to sprint on the straightaway for the last 100 yards, he opened up and passed all four men like a flash and was down the track sprinting just like a 220 man for the full 220 to win by a margin of eight yards. “Richardson is easily the greatest half milcr ever developed on (lie coast,” he continued. “It is doubt ful whether or not ho will be able to repeat for it is usually the case that some men are only good for one big race like that a season. Ho is a better runner than Ray Hodge but not ns powerful. “How does ho compare with Ted Meredith?” Bill was asked. “I saw Ted Meredith break the world record at Stockholm in 1912 with the time of 1:52.1, and that was a wonderful race when the great half-miler was at the top of his rac behind him that day was Mol Shep pard and although I do not think Richardson could boat Meredith I think ho could beat Sheppard. “Before I saw Richardson run, I thought that Charteris of Wash ington would beat him but now I think the Washingtonian will come in behind. “The greatest half-miler we ever had at Oregon, while we are on the subject of hnlf-milers, was Wal ter McClure back in 1912. McClure ran the half in 1:55 but never ap proached the record closer than that., lie ran in the Olympic games and placed ninth in a field of 16 run ners. “Another great race of last Sat urday’s meet—but they wore all great races—was the hurdles run by West. The California man was leading the field until 50 feet from the finish when with a phenomenal sa NIMROD INN 6N the McKenzie river Good Food-Correct Service — Pleas ant Surroundings.

Parkhurst, Vida, Oregon. burst of speed West of Stanford broke away and almost sailed over the rest of the sticks for a 15:0 in the event. It was a wonderful race. “The reason coaches have such wonderful track teams in the south is the spirit of competition. Where several good men are in one event, it makes all of them fight to get any place in it—just like the hurdles this year at Oregon where the com petition is particularly ken. Bill Hayward also refereed the freshman meet between the Stan ford and California teams, in which several dual records were broken. “In placing the teams in the south, I would place the University of Southern California to win in a triangular meet, with Stanford sec ond and California third. But I confidently think that Stanford would win over either team—in a| dual meet on account of their won-1 dnrfully well-balanced team. Track ns seen by Bill Hayward at the southern schools has taken a rapid rise. It is highly probable that western men like RicliardBon, Charteris, Sweet, Grumbles, House, and a host of others will hog the track honors of the country at the big intercollegiate meets at Phila delphia and Chicago this spring. The most powerful track teams and the future outstanding athletes will pome from the Pacific coast slopes, if present strength can be judged. Questionnaire (Continued from page one) benefits all through life, many years after rah rah-ism has wilted away. With the activity bug rampant, as the questionnaires have demon strated, one might easily assume that students have been forced in to these activities against their own wishes. This is not the case, j however, and we must assume that love for the extra-curricula is in nate and strictly American. Only four per cent of the student body has been forced into student acti vities' against their own wishes. Fraternity Life Considered Enlightening figures have been revealed concerning the effect of fraternity house living upon stu dies. In answer to the question, “Would you study more less or the same, if not living in a fraternity house,” 20 per cent reported that they would study more, 24 per cent said they would study less, and 56 per cent believed they would study the same. Here, then, is somewhat of a bombshell into current beliefs. Gen eral opinion has it that fraterni ties are a detriment to studies, maintaining that social activities and other distractions take the fra ternity person away from his les sons. General opinion may be right, but in the minds of the fraternity folk, it is wrong. Deciding the question is another matter. Esina Freeman, Louise Mason and Sara Rorer drove to Newport last week-end.

Complete Summer School Catalogue Off Press Today Post Session Course Will Open August 2 for Four Weeks Prof. F. L. Stetson, ^director ‘of, .v v ... •. V.' ’ summer sessions atVthe , University> of Oregon, announces thaf the com plete summer school catalogue will be off the press today, and will be available at the registrar’s office and at the extension division. Copies will be mailed to all those who have requested information, and to cam pus instructors. The catalog contains 40 pages and carries complete announcements re garding the work to be given at the Eugene and Portland sessions. It also contains a description of the courses to be offered. Twenty-two schools and depart ments will be represented on this campus, making a total of 95 cours es. There will be 20 schools and de partments at Portland, and a total of 60 courses. Courses in educa tion, English, history, sociology and psychology will be featured at each session. The course in coaching which will be given at Eugene is an especially attractive one, and a large enrollment is expected. Ma rine zoology and field geology will be taught at the Eugene session only. As a new feature this year, there will be a post session, offering four weeks of additional work, from Aug ust 2 to August 22. This makes it possible for students to complete the equivalent of a term’s work.

His father was pro fessor of Greek, and an extremely capable man and really a great teacher. His mother was equally capable in the same line, and fre quently took her husband’s class if for any reason he could not. “Professor and Mrs. Hall were not merely ancestors, they were parents of the very highest type and reared a good sized family. They were both fine intelligent friends, and lived as fine Chris tian lives as I have ever witnessed. I knew Arnold B. Hall in his boy hood personally and since that I have followed him in print.
