Oregon Given WinningOdds In Aggie Meet Possibilities Loom Big For Webfoot Track Championship ^ Four Clean Sweeps Seen as Possible Moeller, Prendergast, Hill, Lowry in Line for High Point Honors The track championship of the state of Oregon will bo at stake to morrow at 1:30 on Hayward field, and this year the Aggies are rated far inferior to Oregon. There is a glorious possibility of a complete sweep of all first places for Oregon, though such a thing is hardly probable. O. S. 0. made three more points against Washington in a dual meet this season than did Oregon, lout took only three firsts, if while Oregon took five. The only event that O. S. C. won from Wash ington that Oregon did not, was the 440-yard dash. Claire MeKennon, of Oregon, however, is giving some thing like a two to three chance of defeating the Aggie qunrter-miler. Moeller Conceded Firsts El Moeller is conceded an easy pair rf first places in the shot and discus. Tyrol! Lowry, 'Bill Frendor gnst, or Ralph Hill should run him a close race for.high point man. Teamed with Ilal HildrMli and Marion Hall in the shot, and with Captain George Stager, and Hildreth in the discus, Moeller should be able to lead tlie way to at least one shutout, in those two events. At Seattle during the Washington relay carnival, Ed Siegmund led the Aggie entrant to the tape in the 120-yard piigh hurdles. Harold Kelley and Bill Crawford have been making as good time as Siegmund, and actually beat him occasionally. Barring accident, these men should execute another shutout. Robinson Given Place In all probability, Bob Robinson has a cinch on the pole vault. He has gene 9 inches farther than O. 8. C.'s best mark. Don Maultby, Rob inson ’s partner in the event, has a fighting chance for a second. The only field event the Aggies have as much as a fifty-fifty chance in will be the javelin. Whitlock of O. 8. C. was at one time able to send the spear close to 200 feet, but this year ho has fallen off because of an injury to his throwing arm. Homer Dickson has a possible throw of 100 feet. If Ralph Hill runs both the mile and the SSO, he will in all probabil ity win both events. No Aggie man has ever run off from Ilill. Hill in Shape Again Clarence Hill has made a come back in the two-mile run. He has been slowed up ail season because of weakness in the log he broke last fall in a cross country meet. Ho will be teamed with Ed Jensen and Bill Winter. Jensen, however, will not be so fresh as Hill, since he will compete in both the mile and the two-mile runs. Aggies dope them selves as favorites in this event, but they left Clarence off their lists. Hayward is planning a surprise in the mile relay. The Aggies took this event in the relay meet and have great expectations of winning again.

Mrs. Roach is a member of Madame Rose McGrow’s class in opera -fundamentals. Soprano b. Much Praise In Vocal Recital Mrs. Buford Roacli Pleases Crowd in Well-Cliosen Voice Program . Adding to the laurels which she has already gained in campus musi cal circles, Mrs. Buford Roach de livered a splendid recital, character ized by sweetness and smoothness of execution and the remarkable ease with which she attained high tones without any appearance of ef fort er without losing any of the superb expression which she instills into her numbers. Mrs. Roach is an artist. One seems to instinctively sense it by the spontaneity and freedom of her voice which gives the listener the impression that she is singing not for the audience, not as a matter of mere routine, but because she loves to sing for the pure beauty and art of the thing. The program last night was care fully chosen and was interesting for the beautiful melodies as well as for the difficult technique involved. The program was as follows: I My Lovely Celia . .Arranged by Lane Wilson Child of the Earth with Golden Hair .C. E.

Collegiate Chaff : : By Ron Huhbs Editorial Comment on This and That Most students picture a major student body office as a perfumed bed of roses in which each and ev ery office holder basks in the glory rf popularity. This fiction is about as likely as Paderewski playing in concert with his mittens. There is sacVifice by the carload. A hit and miss education is about all they can expect. There is work. It takes time to run a student govern ment whose assets run up into hun dreds of thousands of dollars, and its student body numbers thousands. There is criticism. No rue individ ual can ruu things to suit the fickle populace. It's a tough job as those who are singing their swan song will testify. But the vexatious snarls have been patiently smoothed out. Ore gon spirit, the Oregana, the consti tution . . . these are but a few <{ the things that caused concern. Truly enough student government wasn't faultless. No government is. > But it was well done, and the re tiring administration is to be com mended for their effort, sacrifice, and most of all—success. The University of Oregon has its first real crack at a national team ( championship if the meet with the University of Texas is definitely scheduled. Oregon’s tennis*material warrants strong competition and an opportunity to try for the coveted honors. It is hoped that Coach Ab ercrombie’s prediction that “This year is Oregon’s turn,” will be al lowed to materialize. * *• * Hell week, motherless fraternities, cut-throat one week rushing—tho shades of the past fraters will have something to liven their musty graves when the grape-vine eaves droppers of the spirit world report that such ideas are about to. em bark for oblivion. The interfrater nity council is seriously considering abolishing all three of the “dear-to the-heart” traditions. Sort of a rude shock, but a change could hardly be for the worse. # Oregon Wins Return Match From Vandals Webfoots Take Game in Eight Innings by 17-7 Score Schoeni Pitches For Oregonians Team To Play Columbia Today in Exhibition Contest MOSCOW, Idaho, May 2X—(Spe cial)—After losing four conference games in a nnv, Oregon finally broke its slump a n (I hammered tlie linll all over tlio lot lioro today to de feat the Idaho Vandals 17 to 7.

They added two more in the third, five in the fourth and three in the sixth. Idaho drove Schoeni to the showers in the eighth with two runs and Baker pitched the rest of the inning. The game was called at the end of the eighth to allow Oregon to catch the train for Portland were they will play Columbia university in an exhibi tion game Friday. Bad luck followed Oregon around the six-game road trip. They lost the second game to Washington in Seattle in the ninth inning, dropped two to Washington State, 13 to 11 and (i to 5, on rallies late in the games. The fourth loss came when Idaho handed them a (i to 5 defeat in a ten-inning struggle. Oregon finishes no its session when it meets Oregon State May 31 and June 1.

Ac cording to Dean Rebec, the easiest way to meet his colleague will not be by returning to Eugene but by going north from New Orleans. The | dean says, “Because the train to take north from Edmonton, Alber ta, goes only once a week, there will bo a week of time to ‘in vest’ after leaving New Orleans; ac cordingly I shall probably stop off at Montgomery, Alabama and Nash ville, Tennessee, then going on to Chicago and from Chicago via Du luth and Winnipeg to Edmonton. Fr< in there I have to take a road that runs .'150 miles north to Water ways, right next to the old Hudson Hay Fort MeMurray on the Atha basca river.” In the meanwhile Burg will have launched the canoe, in which he and Dean Rebec are going to travel, a couple of hundred miles farther up the Athabasca river at Athabasca Landing.
