Hayward Picks
5 Webfoots As
Olympic Hopes
Track Mentor Forecasts
Seattle Tryouts
Starr, Holman, Edwards,
Allen, McCoy Chosen
To Win Places
Ey DICK NEUBERGER
Colonel William L,. Hayward,
who has been to the Olympic
wars four times already and ex
pects to go again
this summer, sat
down in his office
at McArthur
court yesterday
and selected the
30 men he thinks
will qualify in
the 10th Olym
piad tryouts at
Seattle tomorrow
ana Saturday.
The colonel made Col. Hayward
the usual dope-reversal reserva
tion in announcing his list, but
said the two-score and ten ath
letes he had chosen were the out
standing representatives the Paci
fic Northwest had to offer.
On his list Hayward named
five members of the 1932 Oregon
track varsity, and three Webfoot
graduates. The present student
body members he selected were
Paul Starr, Hubert Allen, Mason
McCoy, A1 Edwards, and Art Hol
man. The alumni were Ed Moel
ler, Ralph Hill, and Bobby Robin
son. He also chose Warren De
maris, supple-armed javelin throw
er on the Oregon freshman squad.
Prep Athletes Included I
Two high school athletes were
included among the group. One
was Bobby Grayson, the “Touch
down-kid” from Jefferson high in
Portland. Grayson is figured to
place in the 100-meter race. He
covers the 100-yard stretch in
:9.9. The other prep luminary
Hayward selected was Fiser,
rangy high jumper from Olympia
high in Olympia, Wash.
Colonel Hayward believes Starr,
Rebel Bledsoe of Washington, and
Grayson will be the chief conten
ders in the dashes. He thinks Al
len and McCoy and Holman will
be favorites in the hurdles, with
the latter also figured in the
longer sprints. Broad-shouldered
Ed Moeller is regarded as a cinch
to qualify in the discus. His
chief competitor will be Paul Jes
sup, ex-University of Washington
giant.

Students Going Long
Way by Car ISeed O. K.
Most of the students have be
gun, or at least should begin, to
think about going home, for spring
term will be over in only two and a
half weeks. How to travel by
foot ? by train ? by auto ? or possi
bly by aeroplane?—is a question
that must be considered.
Students who have long distanc
es to travel are reminded that they
must have permission from their
parents to return home via auto.
Does this hold good for aeroplanes, |
too? We presume that it does, I

for legislation to begin work on
the huge $185,000,000 power and

After Representative Hawley

Civil war’s raging in Wash

If you don’t believe it, pick

Minnesota vainly tried to get

Fraud Charges Bring
Call for Re-Vote
Error in Clierking Appears
Cause of Election
Fiasco
The sophomore class will go to
the polls again tomorrow to vote
for class officers for the coming
year, it was ordered yesterday by
the executive council, governing
body of the Associated Students.
The election will be supervised
by the same board that took

87 Too Many Votes
A new vote was made necessary
when the counting board for the
first election, held on Tuesday, dis
covered that there were 37 more
ballots cast than there were names
checked on the polling fists.
In announcing the decision the
council issued the following state
ment:
“In investigating T u e s d a y’s
sophomore class election the exe
cutive council ha| found no evi
dence of fraud, but has found that
certain mistakes were made in the
conduct of the election. Since the
error would influence the results
in three of the four offices, it has
been found advisable to have a
new election under outside super
vision.”
Officials Appear
Alvin McKelligon, president of
the class, and John Kendall, chair
man of the election, appeared be
fore the council and stated the
facts of the case. They were
questioned by several members of
the council.

Smoldering political passions in
the new Prussian diet broke out
in hand-to-hand fighting between
national socialists and communists

services of the police several days
