OREGON SPORTS TRACK MEET SATURDAY Oregon Stats college vt. Univer sity of Oregon In the annual relay carnival here Saturday on Hay ward field. Rivals Slated For Struggle In Dual Meet 4 Pre-Season Marks Are Even to Date Beavers, Webfeet Doped To Finish Close In Each Event If pre-season marks mean any thing the varsity relay teams of Oregon State and Oregon should be on even terms next Saturday when they line up on Hayward field for their annual dual relay meet. Although neither squad has had any conference competition to date, the times made by the cinder artists of both schools in early tryouts are almost identical. In the sprints Paul Starr, Paul Bale, and Art Holman should be able to hold their own against the Beaver aces, Ned Gleason and Skeet O’Connell. The Orange speedsters have turned in some good times this year, running close behind Charles Fyock, rook sprint er, when he raced the 100-yard dash in a campus meet at Corval lis a week ago in 9.9 seconds. Starr's best time to date is 10.2. Other possibilities for the teams in the short distances are fairly even. Quarter-MUers Good In the middle distances Oregon’s quartet of quarter-milers should come in good stead. Johnny Marrs turned in a 50.8 time in the 440 last Saturday, and his running mates, Art Holman, Chuck Dolloff, and Jack Rollwage, are capable of clicking off the distance in near this time. The Beavers’ crack run ner in this event finished in 52.1 seconds in his first competition. Distance runners are scarce and it is going to be hard to outfit a good ,four-mile relay team from either school. Bob Hunter, Oregon miler, turned in his best time last Saturday, when he won in 4 min utes, 35 seconds, just 3 seconds faster than Oregon State's best time to date, made by Gibson in the intramural meet April 9. League Fears Hitch In Armistice Efforts GENEVA, April 2Q-—(API—Un certainty about whether Japan will accept the league assembly com mittee's resolution calling on the Japanese to evacuate the Shanghai area “in the near future’’ caused some uneasiness today in League of Nations circles regarding the outcome of the Shanghai armistice negotiations. Foreign Minister Paul Hymans of Belgium and Sir Eric Drum mond, secretary-general of the league, received Haruichi Nagaoka, Japanese representa t i v e , aid sought to induce him to accept the resolution. Mr. Nagaoka replied he was unauthorized to do so but would query Tokyo. SVVEETSER ADDRESSES CLUB Albert R.

Rain Hampers Baseball Drills - By DICK NEEBERGER AS SOON as Joe Linfor, Francis McQuire and Dick Hayworth clear up minor scholastic irregularities and thereby attain eligibility in the “Big Ten” conference, all will be well at old Camp Randall this spring, where already Doc Spears has begun the task of bringing back the University of Wisconsin as a power in the football world. Bill Reinhart The three lads mentioned above are part, of a group of 17 lettermen which reported for the opening foot ball practice last week. That's plenty cf monogram-winners in any league, especially one that includes such formidable adversaries as Min nesota, Northwestern, Purdue and Onio State. In addition to the 17 lettermen, there also is a respect able-sized group coming up from the freshmen eleven and a fairly promising bunch of hold-overs. Doc Spears No one at Wisconsin appreciates the wealth of material more than Doc Spears. He already lias expressed himself as being pleased with the situation and satisfied with the material available. As Eu gene and Oregon well know, that's an unusual attitude for Doc Spears, for it certainly is not his nature to be optimistic. There must be plenty of snap and dash in those Badgers to stimulate such a cheerful outlook on the part of their new coach. The lettermen wlio answered Doc's first call were, by positions: Captain Gregg Kaliat, Don Cuthbert and Dave Tobias, guards; Frank (Moon) Molinaro, tackle; Dick Hayworth, Ralph Lovshin and George Thurner, ends; Joe I. inf or, Clair Strain, Bobby Schiller, Ncllo Pacetti, Francis (Mickey) McQuire, Kenneth Kundert and Paul Elliker, half backs; John Sclineller and Harold Stnilh, fullbacks; and Charles (Buckets) Goldenberg, quarterback. Notice that the majority of the monogram-winners are haekfield men? That was characteristic of any team coached by Glenn Thistle vvaite, who preceded Spears. He spent most of his time working with the bail-luggers and left the bulk of the line-responsibilities to his assistants. Such a situation will not be duplicated this year, for Spears is one of the best line coaches in the nation. Incidentally, one of Doc’s aides will be Fred Swan, who made a great name here on the Pacific coast as an all-American lineman at Stanford university. The most valuable recent acqui sition to Doc's team is Harold Smith, 1928 Wisconsin fullback, who was injured in the Purdue game that year. He returned to school last fall and will be eligible for participation this year. With Smith available, it is expected that Doc will move John Schneller up on the line. Schneller weighs 198 pounds and is 6 feet 4 inches tall. * * * One of the main immediate difficulties at Camp Randall is the failure of some of the lads to overcome their scholastic diffi culties. Besides Linfor, Hayworth and McQuire, the “book-learnin’ •’ list includes Harvey Kranhold, 200-pound tackle, and Ward Stout, his 240-pound understudy. Once this quintet gets back on the safe side of the eligibility margin how ever, Wisconsin expects to move onto the frortt line of the football sector, a position it has not been able to enjoy of late. Ill * ♦ Incidentally, eligibility rules are stricter in the "Big Ten” than on the Pacific coast, one condition or failure making a man ineligible for athletic participation until the mark is made up satisfactorily. As might be supposed, “Camp” Randall is not an actual camp, such as Camp Lewis, nor is it away from the city of Madison. It merely is the name given to the University of Wisconsin's elabor ate athletic plant. One school that awaits with in terest its first game against Doc Spears is Minnesota, where Doc coached so long before coming to Oregon. The Gophers also have a new coach this year in Bernie Bier man, late of Tulane’s champions, and they already arc demanding that he beat Wisconsin, just as the Badger fans are clamoring for a victory over Minnesota. What a game that should be! The Goph ers will have to step lively to beat the Badgers, but they have plenty of material and an “A” No. 1 coach, and will give Doc plenty to think about before the battle is over. While at Minnesota, Spears consistently defeated Wisconsin, but now he’d like nothing better than to reverse the situation. * * The present fluctuating state of weather is doing the tempers of William J. Reinhart and John J. O'Brien no good. Both those worthy gents looked out the win dows yesterday as the diamonds on ! which their respective varsity and freshmen baseball *nines should have practiced all afternoon were flooded by intermittent rain storms. April showers may make May flowers, but in the process they're doing Bill’s and Jack ., ball clubs ; nothing but harm. Rain forced 1 Reinhart to cancel his opening practice games with the Eugene ! lownies, and unless the weather ! clears soon it is possible that the W'ebfoots first conference encoun ter against Oregon State will be their season’s debut. It would be a novel, but unfortunate arrange ment, the only consolation being that the Aggies would be in the same boat. When it rains at Cor vallis it usually does the same at Eugene, and vice versa. * * Si E. H. Gregory, sporting editor of the Oregonian, had an interesting item on the Olympic club’s football coaches in his column yesterday morning. He pointed out, relative to the departure of Percy Loeey for Denver university, that Loeey is the second coach the San Fran cisco athletic organization has sent on to college circles. The first was Babe Hollingberry, who now heads Washington State's elevens. No successor to Loeey has been announced yet, but you can rest assured it will be a good one. Loeey and Hollingberry had too much success against St. Mary’s, California and Stanford for the Olympic club to be satisfied with a mediocre successor. * * * See where Roy Craft, sporting editor of the Eugene Register Guard, saw the opening baseball between Portland and the Mis sions, which the Beavers won 7 to 3. Roy, in his column in the Eugene Register-Guard last night, said there was as much delay as ever in disposing of the time-hon ored opening-day ceremonies and that even the crowd got disgusted when the field announcer insisted on repeating an oil advertisement over the megaphones. Which reminds me of the un usual incident that took place last year at Vaughn street, when the game was delayed even longer. That time it was no scheduled program, however, but an unfor tunate mishap that took place out in right field when long Ed Cole man stumbled into a mess of field spectators as he chased after a fly ball. The incident was forgotten until a few minutes later when a strap ping policeman emerged from a milling group of fans carrying a small boy who had been spiked by Coleman on his dash for the ball. When that happened the ball game was forgotten temporarily, even the newspapermen closing up their score-books as they hustled tc find out the name of the injured boy, whose hurts fortunately wer* not serious.

Football Lads To Get Theatre Party Tonight This is the night on which Ore gon football lads get their long awaited party at the Colonial thea xitr. x lie iinau wa3 to have been :or only the mem bers of the team that won the spring prac t i c c game be :ween the Dough boys and the Ma rines la3t Friday, but the boys formed a conspi racy on George Bill Morgan Godtrey, who is the host at the theatre party, and ended their game in a 14-to-14 tic, thereby making it imperative for George to invite all the players of both squads. The group will number approximately 60, half of whom will be football men. The other half will be their girls, Godfrey planning to give each player a tick et good for two. Five of the lads will go in style, for they produced points in Fri day's game. As an extra reward for their scoring activities, they will be given loge seats. The mem bers of this select group will be Pep Pelnjak, who scored both touchdowns and one conversion for the Doughboys; Bob Parke, who kicked one goal for the Doughboys; Joe Walsh and Stan Kostka, who each scored a touchdown for the Marines, and Bill Morgan, who twice converted for the Marines. In addition to seeing the feature picture, “Smart Women,” the foot ball lads also w'ill be guests to night at the Leap Week show of the women students. A revival of the old campus movie, “Ed’s Co-ed,” will be another feature. Dialogue for this presentation will be provided by Rush Hughes, the lively announcer of radio station Powell Arranges Sabre Tourney A ladder tournament for sabre wielders is supplying interest for the fencing classes under Warren Powell, coach of the bladesmen. Powell also hopes to get tourneys started in the other classes of fenc ing. Participants are warned that they must register with Powell in time to duel in scheduled matches. At present, Bill Anderson, Jim Blair, Joe Bishop, Siegfried Von Bertelsdorf, and Don Cross are on top in the sabre rivalry. Loan Charge Cut Urged As Substitute for Bonus WASHINGTON, April 20—(AP) —House leaders fighting the cash bonus movement today looked fav orably toward a large slash in veteran loan charges as a possible substitute for the $2,400,000,000 outlay. This plan contemplates restora tion, in part if not in whole, of the maturity values of bonus certifi cates that have been whittled away by unpaid interest on loans. Representative Hawley of Ore gon, ranking Republican on the ways and means committee, said he favors amendment of the inter est requirements. Gravel Walk To Replace Old Steps Near Goiulou Depression has finally hit the old wooden steps, on the east side of Condon hall. The favorite 11 o’clock haunt of spring feverish law studes is being torn up, to be replaced by a less pretentious gravel walk. According to George York, su perintendent of grounds, the whole field east of Condon will be grad ed down to the level of the side walk, sloping evenly back to the art museum bank. It will then be J seeded. Work was started yesterday in | preparation for grading. With j good weather, York stated, it would probably be completed by j May 7.

COLORADO Rain Finishes Frosh Game In 5th Inning Score of 8-1 Amassed By O’Brien Crew University High Succumbs To Yearling Team; Prouty Pitches A sudden deluge of rain in the last of the fifth inning of the Frosh - University high baseball game yesterday stopped a fresh mrti rally with the bases loaded, and the score 8-1 in favor of Jack O'Brien’s proteges. The downpour came as a welcome omen to the campus high squad, for there were no outs and another of the too nu merous frosh rallies was in pro gress. It was a walk-away from the start as O’Brien’s men swatted the horsehide to all corners of the lot for five runs. With these as a send-off, Prouty, left-handed frosh hurler, pitcher steady ball after allowing one run in the first as a result of two hits and an error. The freshman lineup included: Prouty, pitcher; Nicely, catcher; Linn, first base; Claussen, second base; Garbarino, shortstop; Fow ler, third base; McCully, left field; Gemlo, center field; Kostka, right field. Heyden and Thrift replaced Gemlo and Kostka in the third inn ing when they were forced to leave for football practice. , Yesterday's postponement was the second in two days. Tuesday's scheduled contest with Eugene high was not played on account of inclement weather. The next game on the frosh schedule is April 27 against Salem high on O’Brien field. Good news reached camp when the rumor that Bill Lake, star pitcher, was leaving school was spiked, with his return to practice Monday. This will leave a well balanced pitching staff in cluding Lake, right-hander, and Prouty and Kneeland, both port siders. The smoke you like... is the smoke she likes for you!
