Tryouts For
Track Teams
Today at 3:30
Cimler Prospects as Good
Or Better Than Last
Year, Says Hayward
Many Lettermen Will Turn
Out This Afternoon
Tryouts for the varsity and
freshman track teams will be held
at 3:30 o'clock this afternoon in-,
stead of Saturday morning, it was
announced yesterday by Bill Hay
ward, track coach.
According to Hayward, the var
sity is fully as strong as it was j
last year at this time. The weight j
men are exceptionally promising, |
but there is a dearth of candidates
for the half-mile. Hayward ex
pects Oregon to be stronger in
the pole vault, but because Orville j
Bredthauer did not return to
school, it will be weaker in the
broad jump. Bredthauer won the
northern section meet last year.
Oregon Seems Strong
Five candidates appear promis
ing varsity material in the dashes.
There is Tyrrel Lowry, a letter
man; Virgil Scheiber, sophomore,
who won the century against the
O. S. C. babes last year; Paul
Bale, another sophomore, who
downed the Corvallis yearlings in
the 220-yard dash; Jim Corcoran,
ahother sophomore, who was not
in school last spring, and Ivan
Anderson, who was a quarter-;
miler on the 1929 team.
Clare McKinnon, victor in last 1
year's northern conference meet,
quarter-mile race, is the outstand
ing candidate for this event with
Ivan Anderson, Ed Otis, sopho- j
more, who was not eligible last
year, Lloyd Huff, who won the;
quarter against the Rooks last j
year, Tom Johnson and Joe Gerot
as candidates for the remaining
places in this event.
* Hill Will Hun
Ralph Hill, Oregon’s great miler,
will enter in the half-mile with
Dick Jennings and Tom Moran
also entered. Jennings won the
half in last year’s Oregon State
freshman meet. Hill is a letter
man.
There are four candidates for
the mile and two-mile, three of
whom are lettermen in cross
country, and George Cruiekshank.
The three lettermen are Clarence
Hill, Leonard Steele and Pat Beale.
Ralph Hill will enter the mile but
not the longer race.
ltd Siegmund and Hal Kelly,
both lettermen, will compete with
Hubert Allen of last year’s frosh,
Nell Whisnant, Boone Hendricks
and Orville Bailey in the hurdles.
Allen won against the. Rooks last
year. Bailey Is a transfer from
junior college and is out this sea
son for the first time.
Captain Moeller Hack
Bob Evarts, a letterman, looks
to be the best bet in the high
jump. He will be jumping with
Hubert Allen, who won this event
against the Rooks last year. The
remaining candidates for the
jumps will be Captain Ed Moeller,
Orville Bailey, Pat McGinnis and
Gilbert French of last year’s var
sity.
Lowry and McGinnis are the
only experienced men out for the
broad jump. Bill Minsinger, Allen,
and Schieber are promising soph
omores, who will vie with the vet
erans for regular berths.
Bob Robinson and Don Maidtby,
both veterans, and Bailey are out
for the pole vault. Robinson is
improving daily and should do bet
ter than 13 feet before the season
is over.
Besides Captain Moeller, .liggs
Hildreth, Marion Hall, Bob Eek
man, and Homer Dickson are the
discus possibilities. All are let
termen except Eckman, although
the latter was on the squad last
year.
Dickson is tile outstanding jave
lin tosser. French and Carry
Thompson, a sophomore, also are
fighting for places on the team.

By Harry Van Dine
McEwan has real task ahead
of him at Holy Cross; An
derson and Laferty to com
pete in state meet.
nwHHwmmw
/AUK old friend, Captain John J.
^ McEwan, is hard at work
back at Holy Cross college of
Worcester, Mass., installing his
football system in preparation for
the 1930 campaign. Needless to
say, McEwan's many friends on
the Oregon campus were happy to
hear that he had landed the east
ern coaching berth. Cap is right
in his environment in the East,
as he has many strong contacts
ihere which he formed when he
was head coach at West Point.
* * *
McEwan will face a tough
schedule in his first year at the
Jesuit school, the bill calling for
ten games. Harvard, Brown,
Eordham, Rutgers, Boston college,
Catholic university schools like
these turn out some real teams
and McEwan will have to keep
his men hustling to make a good
showing against them. Incidental
ly, the game between Holy Cross
and Boston college is as tradition
al as the Oregon-Oregon State
battle.
Holy Cross has one record of
which it is highly proud—it has
sent more baseball players to the
big leagues than any other one in
stitution of higher learning in the
country. McEwan's big ambition
is to make it just as well known
in football. When he started
spring practice he found the men
rather small, compared to those
at Oregon, but very fast. They
ought to fit in well with his style
of play.
The Holy Cross officials seem
to be giving Mac free rein as
Gene Vidal, who served as assist
ant coach to McEwan for three
years here, will be his first lieu
tenant there. Gene knows his foot
ROTC To Benefit !
If Bill Is Passed
Enactment Would Allow j
Larger Enrollment
More snappy uniforms for all j
and an increase in the number of |
advanced course students in the •
K. O. T. C. here may be antici-,
paled if the bill before congress j
which will increase the appropria
tions^ for the R. O. T. C. from
to .j!4,000,000 passes, in
the opinion of Capt. C. H. Bragg,
of the military department.
“Of course, it is difficult to de
termine just what effect such a
bill would have on the local unit
because the money has first to be
apportioned among the various
corps areas and then subdivided
among the various units, but it is
quite probable that if the bill were
passed we would be able to enroll
more juniors and seniors in the
advanced course and also furnish
better uniforms to both those in
the advanced course and those in
the basic course,” Captain Bragg
slated.
There has been a delay atfect
ing all military legislation in con
gress, so it is rather uncertain
whether the bill will pass. The
delay was due, in the senate, to
the absence of Senator Reed, chair
man of the committee on military
affairs, who is attending the Na
val conference in London; and in
the house, to the absence of Con
gressman James, who has been se
riously ill for weeks.

When McEwan was dickering
for the job in the East, his many
friends out here sent a deluge of
recommendations to Holy Cross
authorities which landed him the
job. Writing to Sam Wilderman,
Mac stated, “I want to express my
appreti u for the splendid rec
ommendat try telegrams from Eu- !
gene. The / were a great help and
determinii g factor."
l
That might be said to have j
closed the book “McEwan at
Oregon" as everybody seems to
be well satisfied. Mac is hard at
work there incidentally he has
1100 men students at Holy Cross

Outdoor Range
Said Necessity!
Harvey Wright, Star Firer, ]
Discloses Need
An outdoor rifle range is what
the University of Oregon R. O.
T. C. needs most if increased gov
ernment appropriations such as
are provided for in the present
bill before congress would make
it possible for the local unit to
expand, Harvey Wright, star mem
ber of the rifle team, believes.
"The outdoor rifle range has
many advantages over the inside
range such as we have now,”
Wright said. "For one thing it
would not be necessary to have
artificial light, which is difficult
to shoot by. Then there would
be ground to brace oneself on,
which is very important. The at
mosphere in the outdoor range is
also much better. There is no
steam to bother a person,” he
added.
Wright also believes that a non
commissioned officer should be
provided for who would supervise
the shooting. With a man in
charge who had no other duties, it
would be possible to keep the
range open all day, while at pres
ent the range is open only part of
the time.
The annual Shakespeare birth-.
day festival at Stratford-on-Avon j
will commence April 21, and con
tinue for five weeks. The regu
lar summer festivals of Stratford
on-Avon will begin July 7, and
continue until September 13.
Officer I raining
School for Prison
Work Is Planned
College Men Wanted for
Service, Says Letter
To Dean Gilbert
Plans are being made to profes
sionalize the federal prison service
by enlisting high grade officers
and by establishing a system of
professional training and promo
tion cn merit, according to a let
ter recently received from the de
partment of justice by Dr. James
H. Gilbert, dean of the college of
literature, science, and the arts.
A training school for officers has
been established in New York City,
where the men enter service as
guards and take a four months’
course.
At the conclusion of the train
ing course officers are assigned to
one of the federal penitentiaries
or one of several prison camps
in various parts of the • country.
A man enters the federal prison
service with a base pay of $1,620
per year and allowances which
bring the total remuneration to
SI,860. Within the guards' grade
it is possible to reach a salary of
$2,100 a year, and salaries in ad
ministrative positions for which
one may qualify after experience
range from $2,100 to $7,000.
“College men with specialized
training for prison work have their
place in the progressive penal pro
gram laid down by the attorney
general and the superintendent of
prisons and embodied in bills now
before congress,” states the letter.
“An urgent appeal is made to the
undergraduates and recent gradu
ates of American colleges and uni
versities to consider entering the
federal prison service at this
time.”
