Oregon Mermen Make Records at M. A. A. C, Meet Conference Relay Mark Set; 100-Yard Swim Time Lowered Ducks Arc Heavy Victors In Portland Event Taking six first places, setting cno new conference record in the 440-yard relay, and breaking an old record in the 100-yard free style, Ihc Ihirteen swimmers of Oregon’s var sity scored an ensv win -over the aquatic stars of Multnomah (dub last Saturday iiVgtlt at the iclub pool in Portland. Never before had the Multnomah natators received such a sound drubbing by the Web footers. Notwithstanding the Heore, Cl to 27, several of the events were closely contested and furnished a fast exhibition for the spectators. Johnny Anderson, Oregon speed demon, set up a new mark for swim mers of the Northwest to aim for in the 100-yard free style event. TIo covered the course in 3 0:07 1-5, one fifth of a second better ‘than the former record held by Orville Peter sen, recent O. A. C. star. This was one of the fastest paced swims of the meet, Chet Floyd of Oregon barely getting a close second by nosing out Dana Thomas of the club squad. Webfcet Win First Race The Lemon-Yellow men started the winning streak in the first, race ■when Floyd, Sharp, Cook and An derson led the clubmen ' a merry round in the 200 yard relay, col lecting the six deciding markers after n.- close paddle. In the breast stroke event Mult nomah’s weak spot was obvious, and Fletcher and Newbogin collected an other eight' points without over ox eition. Johnny the Flash again showed Thomas his heels in the 50-yard dash, conclusively establishing his superiority in the dash events. Sharp ' of Oregon followed Thomas closely for the third in this number. The clubmen garnered six points I in the next event, the 440-ynrd free1 style, when George Horsfall took first, and Ilansen third, giving Ore gon i! points, with Silverman’s sec ond. The time for the event was slew, and hns boon constantly bet tered bv Silverman in daily prac tice*. He had been confined to bis bod for 'several days just previous j to the meet and was too weak to finish in first place, although lead ing for the first eight laps. McCook, of Oregon, flipped a de risive set of heels at Horsfall in the 220 free style for a quick first. Floyd of Oregon, was in third posi iton. Back Stroke Race Pretty Another pretty race was the 150 yard back stroke event which went to Multnomah club in the first place, but was taken by Bob Me Alpiiv, sad John Allen for the sec ond and third berths. , Oregon dosed the swim events with a. win in the .'100-yavd med ley relay. The winning trio, Sharp, crawl stroke man; Fletcher, breast stroke, and McAlpin, back stroker, were clocked at 0:41 in this event, tInis setting a record for this event in the Northwest.

Rook Game Saturday In the \game Saturday, part of the ragged showing was probably due to the team being off polor. This is especially true in regard to the shooting. There are a number of aceurate basket, loopers among the Oregon yearlings, but in the af fair with the Washington freshmen these men could not seem to loeato the basket with either long or crip ple shots.

It’s packed in a tin, the tin’s colored blue. Not only the smoking but the chewing kind too. Of course if you never are bothered this way, Just keep the prescription for some other day.
