    Fiji Aquatic
Aces Triumph
In Donut Meet
Winners Take 27 Points
S.A.E. ami Phi Dells ;
r Tie for Second
_
Gillett, Sigma Nu Flash,
Wins Two Firsts in
I
Free Style Events
By CIIAL NOOK
Tho donut ivatcr-wings go to the
Fijis; they won the intramural
swimming meet yesterday afternoon j
in the men’s gymnasium pool with j
27 points. Sigma Alpha Epsilon and
Phi Delta Theta were their nearest
competitors with 22 markers each.
“A Fiji in every event” won the
meet for Phi Gamma Delta. They
took points in each race and in the
dives, but did not take a single first
place. Bill Gillett, Sigma Nu mer
man, took the individual honors with
a first in tho 40 yard free style
^ and first in the 100 yard free style.
Gillett swam tho 40 in 21 seconds
flat, bettering last year’s record
of 22 4-5 seconds held by Vic Wet
zel, Plii Dclt star. The 100 yard
splint was completed in 1 minute 5
second 4 No previous intramurail
record is recorded for this event.
Record Lowered.
Bob McMath, Delta Tau Delta,
breasted 40 yards of water and won
the breast stroke in 28.2 seconds,
which also lowered the existing do
nut record of 29 seconds established
by Baker, Phi Delt.
It may be some time before the
intramural 40 yard back stroke rec
ord of 25 4-5 seconds held by Bob
McAlpin, Dclt, will be smashed. Ivon-j
igshoffer, A. T. O. hoiie, made the j
distance in 28.5 seconds and took
first place. lie was second to Mc
Alpin last year.
Servers Repeats
Bill Seivers, S. A. E. low-board
artist, repeated. He won the div
ing event last year and yesterday
h afternoon took a closely contested !
match from McDonald, Fiji. After j
each of the divers entered had had |
their four dives, including their op
tional, Coach Abercrombie, who was
judging tlie event, discovered that1
Stivers and McDonald had the same |
number of points and were heading j
the list. An additional optional dive |
was granted these two men to elim- [
inate the tie. Stivers chose a one
and a half front and slid in the
water nicely. A back jack-kife was '
McDonald’s choice. The previous
wettings must have caused the jack
knife to rust for, although he closed j
up in good shape, he failed to open
in the same excellent manner.
Phi Delts Take Relay
Vic Wetzel and his cohorts took j
the relay, with Phi Gamma Delta
pulling up in second place. It might
have been a slightly different story
if the anchor man of the Sigma Nu
team had not lost track of his team
mate and waited for another man to
touch the cement before he plunged !
in. Sigma Nu was leading in their
beat up to this time and, although
I they might not have taken first,
they would have been around the
top.
The races were run in heats, with
a stop-watch on every swimmer. The
mail with the.best time won.

arc as follows:
40 yard free stylo: Gillett, Sigma
Nu, first; Hendry, A. T. O., and

Frosli Diamond
Aspirants Called
Leslie To Meet Men at
3:30 in Igloo
The duckling pigskin artists have
had their fling, the'duckling casaba
experts have cut their swath, and
scon the duckling liorsehide pum
melers arc to have their inning.
With spring approaching the base
ball “tingle” lias begun to permeate
the atmosphere. It won’t be long"
now. Spike Leslie, freshman base
ball mentor, is expecting a big sea
son for his yearling diamond aspir
ants.
At present it is doubtful, accoscl
ing to Leslie, whether he will call
practice for the freshman nine be
fore the opening of the spring term,
but before anything definite is de
cided on this matter the freshman
coach wishes to get in touch* with
all duckling baseballists—catchers,
pitchers, infielders, outfielders, hits
men, batsmen, waterboys, and what
nets, so long as they are freshmen
and have the “itch” to play ball.
The best method that Coach Leslie
has hit upon to bring this contact
about is tq call a big freshman base
ball pow-wow in McArthur court,
Monday afternoon, at 3:30 o’clock.
Some of the purposes of this frosli
baseball get-together, is to learn the
approximate size of the squad to bo
expected out in the spring, that suf
ficient equipment may be provided
for, to get the names of the players,
what they have played, the position
they intend to try for, and possibly,
the feasibility of holding practice
before next term.
A few duckling hinders have been
using the Igloo in sporadic, work
hut sessions during the past two
weeks. It is time for all the frosli
Cobbs, Ruths, Hornsbys, and such,
to begin to condition themselves for
the coming season, says Coach Les
lie. He implied that it would lie to
the advantage of all aspirants to be
on hand at the scheduled “indoor”
session Monday afternoon.
Prospects Bright for
Freshman Golf Team
With twenty-seven signed up for
freshman golf, prospects for a suc
cessful first year team and for a
supply of varsity material'next year
are looking bright. Some outstand
ing aspirants who have considerable
prestige as amateur golfers are
signed up. They are: (Se-orge Will,
Don Moe, and Wilson Johnston, all
of Portland.
Present plans include the sched
uling of tournaments with other
schools.
Those signed up are as follows:
Harold Dolf, Norman Eastman, Bill
Whitley, Billy Knox, Art Ireland,
Ed Latourette, Jesse Douglas, Wood
ward Archer, Clayton Ilojberg, Pete
Hollowell, Ford Smith, Kit Miller,
George Will, Chandler Brown, Ed
ward Fisher, Bob Hammond, Wilson
McCook, Don Moe, Francis Andrews,
Frances Heitkempcr, Wilson John
son, Dick Marshall, Charles Barker,
Don Johnson, James Dezendorf, and
Jack Wilson.
AGAIN—Today and Saturday—
It continues to hold Eugene with its powerful ap
peal such as few pictures have ever done.

Track Teams
Clash Todav
Intramural Meet Will Be
Fast Affair,. Says
Bill Hayward
The trial events of the first in
tramural track meet will bo held j
this afternoon at ;i:30 on Hayward !
field. The final
heats will be run
off tomorrow.
Races scheduled
for today are the
75 yard dash, 220,
440, SSO, ami the
mile. Prospects
are fair for a
clear day and a
dry track, and,
considering the
times made during Bill Hayward
winter meets in McArthur court,
some fast events are expected.
More interest lias been shown in
track at Oregon this year than has
been the case for' many years. This
is ifue to the foresight of Bill Hay
ward, track coach, in arranging for
the series of indoor meets in the
pavilion.
Keen competition has been dis
played among the men’s living or
ganizations, and consequently some
piomising material has been brought
to the front. From these meets,
Hayward hopes to stimulate enough
interest in track to strengthen the
varsity team for the conference
campaign.
Heretofore the Wcbfoot track
stars have been inactive during the I
winter months, but with the con
struction of the indoor track, prac
tice has been continued ail year.
With the regular season close at
hand, however, practice will bo
changed to Hayward field.
Today’s meet will have the same
touch of color and spirit as any
intercollegiate clash. Four organi
zations, the Independents, Sigma Al
pha Epsilon, Beta Theta Pi, and Phi
Delta Theta, are favored to carry
eff the trophy cup.
Football
(Continued from pane one)
ward Archer and Leon Steen, both
160 pounds. All of these will need
considerable seasoning before be
ing ready for varsity competition. It
will be the wing positions where
MeEwan will probably do most of
his experimenting next, term and
early next fall. La Selles Coles, I
member of the super-varsity as a j
halfback, is also being groomed as
an end. He has shown considerable
promise in this position. There is !
also some talk of trying out Everett :
MeCutehan at end. MeCutehan won
his letter ' at tackle last fall but
was not out for this "term’s practice.
This _ experiment would be well
worth trying as MeCutehan has
plenty of speed. Couple this with
his heighth and his light and ho
would be plenty antagonistic to op
posing backfieldmen.
* * #
There will be plenty of weight in
the tackle position* it' any of the
freshman candidates are successful
in landing a varsity berth. Austin
Colbert, 185-pound tackle and for
mer Eugene high star, is showing
much promise. If lie is successful,
George Christenson, 225 - pound
tackle, will have the honor of be
ing the heaviest player on the Web
foot team next fall. After a slow
start with the yearlings last fall,
Christenson found himself and
proved to be Billy Ileinhart’s most
consistent line performer. Marion
Hall, 200 pounds, and Kalph Bates,
218 pounds, are a couple of other
heavyweights.
* # #
Guard and center reinforcements
will come from .Terry Lillie, 180
pound guard; Ted Bark, 170-pound;
Norman Jesse, 195, and Kormit
Itagain, 200 - pound guardsman.
George Chappell, regular 1927 frog
man center, shows more premise of
being George Stadolmau’s under
study at center than any other
gridster.
* * *
John Kitzmiller and Jolm Dono
hue, 175 pounders, are good pros
pects for halfback berths. Both
showed considerable line plunging
ability with the freshmen last fall.
Ed Moeller is a good prospect at
fullback. Bill 1’arke is an aspirant
for quarterback and Don Kelly and
Cecil Gabriel are two move prospects
for halfback.
Students Bombarded
By Coach Edmundson
UNIVERSITY OF WASHING
TON, March 1— P. I. P.—While
G000 University students were bask
ing in warm sunshine Tuesday morn
ing at 11, one-sixth as many Wash
ingtonians at the A. S. U. W. as
sembly heard their leisurely brothers
outside bombarded in fiery language
for lack of devotion to Alma Mater.
Coach “Hoc” Edmundson, the tra
ditional stormy petrel of activity
assemblies, was the first speaker
to break loose in denunciations of
1ho' neglect and lack of true Wash
ington spirit displayed by those who
were sunning themselves outside the
walls of Meany hall.
Darwin Meisnest, graduate man
ager, in a short talk, emphasized tiro
need of students excelling in but
one activity, rather than taking part
in too large a variety, thus keeping
ethers out of the same fields.

Wrestlers May
.Compete Again
College Grappling May Be
Put on Sports Bill
The possible revival of intercol
legiate wrestling teams hero is a
rumor resulting from the announce
ment that O. 0. and Oregon
wrestlers will meet in an ‘‘infor
mal” tournament in the men's gym
nasium tonight at 8 o’clock.
The meet is an arrangement be
tween Chet Newton, (). M. e
coach, and Karl W'idmer, who is in
charge of wrestling here. None of
♦ lie decisions will be published but
nil students are invited to witness j
the matches.
There will be eight bouts at dif
ferent weights of 10 minutes dur
ation each. In case a fall is gained
before the tilin' limit this fall wins
the match. Olympic, rules will be
observed in all bouts. In these
regulations the scissors holds are
barred, making a change which the
Oregon wrestlers have not expected.
The bouts will be speeded up as
much as possible, according to
“Dutch” Widmer. Considerable
stalling has been resorted to in for
mer bouts.
The names of the O. S. C. wres
tlers have not been received here
but those who will compete for Ore
gon were announced yesterday by
Widmer.

Tobacco for
the Tropics
October 6, 1926
Larus & Bro. Co. •*
Richmond, Va., U. S. A.'
Gentlemen:
Most all well-known tobaccos smoke
well in a cold or temperate climate,
but very few in a tropical climate.
They are mostly too heavy, don’t seem
to be blended right—at least that is
my opinion gained from practical ex
perience.
However, Edgeworth is the same in
any climate. Again that is my opinion
gained by practical experience.
I cannot get the same pleasure out
of any brand of tobacco that I can out
of Edgeworth, and I have tried many
—and paid fancy prices, too. It costs
real money to smoke imported tobaccos
here; the import duty is very high.
Anyway, we cannot have everything
we would like in these countries, so we
hold on to all the little pleasures possi
ble. Now you know why I smoke
Edgeworth.
Yours respectfully,
R. C. Rigg
