Webfooters to Enter Relays Hayward Plaees Oregon Men in Three Events; Mile Strongest Ton Oregon trackmen will com pete today in the annual University ot: Washington relay ear »val at Vic Wetzel Seattle. Vic Wetzel, two year let term an and captain of the Webfoot ers, leads the team, which includes liuben Boss, Joe Standard, Ernest McKitrick, La Verne Pearson, Arlen McCarty, Clare McKinnon, Bobin Overstreet, Ed Thorstenbcrg, and Wade Butherford. The Oregonians will enter but three events. Wetzel will be in the shot put; Boss, Standard, McKin non, Pearson and McCarty in the one-mile relay, one of them acting as alternate; aVid k^cKitrick, Over street, Thorstenbcrg and Butherford in the two mile relay. Wetzel Expected to Place The Oregon-Oregon Aggie dual re lay meet held here last week tested the ability of the Webfoot team. The Beavers walked away with six tf the nine events on tlTe program. As a result .of the showing made, Hayward will not enter other relay teams. The Aggies took the four mile relay with nearly a quarter mile lead, easily defeating the best the Wcbfoots could muster for the performance. Wetzel is conceded a chance for points in the shot, although ho is not expected to better the mark of Hcrm Brix, Washington star. To date the Oregon captain’s best dis tance with the iron ball is 43 feet 1! inches. This wps made in practice. In the Oregon Aggie meet the best tr.ss which Wetzel registered was 4.1 feet 8 inches, and he hit this mark twice in three attempts. Mile Team on Par Until this season Oregon has been without many shot putters, but with two promising sophomores, Hay ward expects to have a trio that will account for points m dual moots. Homer Dixon and George Stadel man are the Inexperienced men, but both place the ball along with Wet zel. The Oregon mile relay team is just about equal to that of the Aggies. The Webfoots led in the first three heats in the dual tourney last week, but Sisson, Beaver star, ran ono of the fastest quarters ns anchor man and came within two paces of break ing the tape abreast of Standard. The Oregon athlete had a 30-yard lead at the start, but barely came in first. Sisson made a brilliant sprint to cut down the long advantage on the home stretch. 2-Mile Team Has onances Oregon’s two inilo relay team is not outstanding but stands an even chance to place. The combination which will compete against the col; leges of tho northwest today ran a close second to the Aggies in the dual meet. Tho Webfooters had a substantial lead in the first half mile but tho Aggio runners came ahead to win in tho final heats. Ruben Ross, Wcbfoot sprinter, has become one of the outstanding men on the team. For three years he had trained on the distance races, and it was just until recently that Bill llayward discovered Ross’ pos sibilities as a sprinter, lie now runs the 100-yahl dash in : 10.2, the 220-yard dash in :22.li, the -140-yard clash in :51.2, and the half-mile in 2:01.

It is always striving to master new problems; and when new problems are solved, it advances to others. It is never satisfied. For that reason we are constantly moving forward into new fields of discovery—insatiable, always demanding something newer, something better, something different. Nothing demonstrates this more remarkably than the advertisements you read. They cover the entire range of human requirements—from the absolute necessities of life to the most refined luxuries. Yet they are con stantly changing. This continual change means fresh material, fresh ideas, a stimulus to new endeavor. The moment you cease to find interest in the adver tisements of the offerings of industry, of commerce, of art—that moment you will begin to retrogress, and the world will slip away from you. Reading advertisements is looking forward
