Cinder Artists Get
ISetc Silken Panties;
Paul Starr Through
Those who have read the papers
from the San Francisco bay region
in an attempt to follow the pro
gress of Paul Starr .who was to
run with the Olympic club will
have that same feeling of some
thing lost that the writer had when
they learn that Paul probably will
never wear the spikes on the cin
der paths again.
While working out in prepara
tion for running with the club he
broke the achilles tendon in his
ankle. There is some chance of a
pull healing up so that an athlete
can run and compete again, but
when the tendon is completely sev
ered there is little hope for run
ning and there is a possibility of
permanent disability. Starr has
had his leg in a cast for the past
six weeks and by the time this is
before the readers he will know
whether or not he gets around un
der his own power.
One of the big sporting events
of the week is over, and no doubt
there were many tears of joy and
sorrow wept into the beer last
night. The student body is assured
of student body officers and con
gratulations are in order to Joe
Renner, Bill Berg, Cosgrove La
Barre, Bob Miller, Nancy Archbold,
and Elizabeth Bendstrup.
Oregon also has a new versatile
man. Bill Berg, who is to captain
Oregon’s basketball team next
year is the students’ choice for
vice-president of the A.S.U.O. and
he will be of real assistance to the
student body president. Berg is
the type of athlete who is not
flashy but is so dependable and
consistent that he is seldom no
ticed.
His dependability earned him a
position on Bill Reinhart's basket
ball team for two years and finally
he was accorded the team captain
cy by his fellow team mates. His
activity in student life has been,
not sensational but always an act
ive interest that has won the con
fidence of his fellow students so
viva Berg! May he shine in the
executive council as he has and
will on the maple court.

When Oregon’s track team takes
off their heavy green warm-ups
Saturday to run against the Ore
gon State men, the fans will be
treated to the sight of a flash of
silk, yes white silk with a dash of
green trimmings. Those new run
ning trunks assure the fans of see
ing the latest in cinder styles, and
the Oregon runners of victory in
their races. Those new pants are
so smooth that a fly can’t land on
them. They are the latest thing in
cutting down the wind resistance.
In Vogue these new pants would
be dwelt on summarily; these
trunks are lower, have fitted
waist lines with darted bodice ef
fect, bias cul lines with godetted
fullness at the hemline, clinging
silken affairs with a touch of
spring's foremost contrasting col
or, brilliant hunter’s green.

As Race Ends
Playoff Matches to Start
Next Monday
Undefeated Sigma Alpha Mu and
S.A.IC. Nines Will Meet
In First. Battle
The new schedule for donut .soft
ball, drawn up by intramural
sports supervisor Earl E. Boushey,
provides for a two weeks’ playoff
to determine the league winners in
the first two leagues by elimina
tion matches and to find the cham
pionship softball nine by a six
game, round robin series between
the four league leaders.
At the present time League 1 is
in a two way tie between Sigma
Chi and Theta Chi. Both teams
have won three games and lost
one. Sigma Chi has scored 44
runs in four games played. Theta
Chi has scored 46 against the same
four opponents. In their first
match Sigma Chi won. But Theta
Chi swamped the Pi Kap nine who
in turn beat Sigma Chi. The two
teams should meet at scratch.
Three Teams Tied
League II is in even a deeper
muddle than the first league. The
Yeomen, Phi Gamma Delta, and
Alpha Tau Omega nines are all
tied for first with three wins and
one defeat each. The A. T. O.s
have beaten the Yeomen, who have
beaten the Fijis, who have beaten
the A. T. O.s This leaves the old
dope sheet a complete blank.
The Sigma Alpha Epsilon soft
ball stars have been left unscathed
in League III and thereby hold the
undisputed lead of this league.
Sigma Alpha Mu has almost as
good a record in League IV with
four wins and one loss. These two
teams have been paired to meet in
the first round of the winner’s
round robin playoff on Monday.
Sigma Chi and Theta Chi will
also stage their epic battle for the
leadership of the first league next
Monday, the diamonds and time to
be announced later. The A. T. O.
and Fiji donuteers will be in the
third game Monday, when they
will take the first step in breaking
the three way tie in League II.
Tuesday the Yeomen will play the
winner of this game.

Batik Making Needs Ideas,
Ambition9 Says Art Maj
or
Note: This is the fifth of a se
ries of interviews dealing with
the various departments in the
art school.
“Did you ask how to make bat
ik ? Well .before I explain,” saic
Margaret Litscher, senior in nor
mal art, “I'd like to say that it’:
an attractive way to add charming
color notes to one’s spring ward
robe and to the walls of one's
room.
"Kquip yourself with ambition
ideas .patience, steady nerves, anc
filially, the necessary materials
Silk crepe .georgette, or pussywil
low, a form of pure silk, are the
best cloths to use, and be sure tc
get enough cloth. A pot of was
and an alcohol lamp for heating
the wax are needed. Buy or beg a
tjanting, which is the native Jav
anese tool for making batik.”
The tjanting is an instrument ol
thin copper, shaped like a smal
oval cup with a slender, curvet
spout projecting from one end, am:
a reed handle at the other end. It
is used to apply hot wax to the
material.
Specially prepared dyes for bat
ik, are mixed with acetic to make
them more durable, are also need
ed. Cloth-covered frames into
which is pinned the material so
that it may be kept from the sur
face of the table while the hot wax
is being applied are a necessary
part of the equipment.
After all the materials and
equipment are collected, the batik
is begun. There are four general
steps: designing, waxing, dyeing,
and removing the wax. The design
is drawn and tried in different col
or schemes on paper; then it is
traced lightly with pencil onto the
material. The material is then
pinned into the frame and is made
ready for the waxing process.
"It is very important,” contin
ued Miss Litscher, "that the wax
be kept at just the right tempera
ture .because if it is too hot, the
wax spreads or blurs at the point
where the tjanting touches the ma
terial. On the other hand, if the
wax is too cool, it refuses to pen
erate the fiber of the cloth, and
in either case ragged outlines re
suit. However, one soon learns to
handle the wax.”
There are two methods In mak
ing batik: the “painting-in,” which
is the quick western method, not
the true Javanese, and the "dip
ping” method. The beginner isj
usually advised to start with the
former, so that he may become
better acquainted with his tool and
dyes.
If a scarf of many bright colors
in small areas is being made, the
method of outlining each color
spot with wax and painting in the
dye with a small brush is the one
to use. When the wax is removed,
a line of the original color of the
I material will surround each paint
! ed-in color.
In making a wall hanging for a
room, the “dipping” method should
be used, because close color har
monies can be secured and the
larger areas can be dyed more
smoothly. This method is a pro
cess of waxing with the tool and a
small brush all the parts of the
design which are to remain the
original color of the fabric. The
whole article is dipped in the light
er dye, dryed, and then the areas
are waxed to remain this color.
This procedure is repeated through
the color scheme until the darkest
color is dyed. A process called
“crackle" makes an interesting
"cobwebby" pattern all over the
design or on certain areas and may
bo used if desired. Just before the
last dipping the waxed fabric is
gently crushed, which allows the
color to penetrate the cloth, giving
it this crackled appearance.
"The last step in making a batik,
the removal of the wax .has now
been reached," concluded Miss Lits
cher. "The removal is done by ap
plying a hot iron and then by
washing the fabric in gasoline, (or
better still, by sending it to a spe
cial cleaner so that it may be put
under high pressure steam to set
the color). The hanging is then
lined with a harmonious color,
pressed, and hung on an appro
priate background to complete the
color harmony of a room."

Riflemen Win
Second Place
In Wire Meet
!
Harlan Thompson Takes i
Individual Honors
Oregonians Score Three Fewer
Points Than Victorious
Washington Squad
The University of Oregon five
rr.an rifle team came through with
flying colors in the Hearst trophy
national championship telegraphic
matches for senior R.O.T.C. units
by placing second to the Univer
sity of Washington outfit. The
Webfoots scored 951 points out of
a possible 1000, while the Washing
ton representatives rang the tar
gets for a total of 954 points.
Further laurels were added to
the Webfoots’ crown of glory when
Harlan Thompson placed second in
the individual shooting, scoring 96
out of a possible 100. He suffered
a bit of hard luck, as his score was
sent in for 97, the same as the
winner scored.
Each team member will receive
a silver medal, and the University
will be presented with a shield. The
team members were Thompson,
Horace Neely, Harold Price, B. J.
Cross, and Harlan Atterbury. The
results of the national ten-men
championship matches are not yet
known.
Although disappointed that the
Webfoot riflemen were nosed out
Sergeant Harvey Blythe, coach,
stated, “Coming so close to the
championship has given the boys
new spirit, and we plan to bring
next year’s championship cup to
Oregon. Only four out of the 15
highest shooters will be gone. Al
though losing Neely, the most
consistent sharpshooter on the
squad, we will have Thompson back
to lead the marksmen. This is
only the beginning.’’

Marketing Class
To Go to Portland
Dr. N. H. Cornish, professor of
business administration, is sched
uling a marketing trip to Portland,
Friday and Saturday, May 4 and
5. He will take his students in
marketing through Swift and com
pany, Jantzen Knitting mills, Hud
son and Duncan, and Lipman,
Wolfe and company.
B. C. Darnall, sales manager of
Swift and company, will talk to
the students on the marketing
methods and policies followed by
his company; J. S. Adams, sales
manager of Jantzen's, will discuss
present marketing problems in the
knitting industry; J. H. Duncan,
sales manager of Hudson and Dun
can, will describe his sales organi
zation and its functions: and Har
old Wendell, president of Lipman,
Wolfe and company, will discuss
the buying methods and policies1
followed by that retail institution.
Thirty-five students have al
ready signed up for the trip. All
other students desiring to go on
the trip with Dr. Cornish should
leave their names with him some-j
time this week. The trip will term
inate Saturday noon, May 5.
Psychology Students
Conduct Experiment
Three students in the psycholo
gy department are conducting an
experiment on the measurement of
steadiness as a follow-up to the
recent experiments made by Dr.
R. H. Seashore, associate professor
of psychology, in steadiness in ri
fle shooting. The three students.
Brian Heath, Norman Winslow, and
Harry Roberts are trying to devise
simple equipment for the testing
of steadiness that can be made
standard laboratory equipment.
The apparatus used by Dr. Sea
shore in his rifle shooting experi
ment was far too complex for stan
dard laboratory work with stu
dents.

Golfers to Meet
Columbian Team
At Country Club
Olsen, Boyd, P. Mulder, J. Mulder,
Sillier, and Meissner to Be
Today’s Lineup
The University of Oregon golf
team, led by tis long driving cap
tain, Don “Gooseneck” Olsen will
meet Columbia university of Port
land at the Eugene country club
at 9:30 this morning when the
first of the best ball matches will
start. Individual matches are
scheduled to begin at 1:30. Little
is known of the strength of the
Cliffdwellers’ aggregation, except
that it is made up of some of the
best young private course players
in Portland.
Coach Tom £toddard of the Ore
gon team announced the following
men and positions for the matches:
Captain Olsen, number 1; Johnny
Boyd, number 2; Phil Mulder, num
ber 3; Jack Mulder, number 4; Bob
Miller, number 5; and Bill Meiss
ner, number 6.
Since the Washington Huskies
gave them a trimming here two
weeks ago, the Duck golfers have
been steadily improving with Ol
son, Boyd, and the Mulder broth
ers touring the difficult country
club layout in consistent par or
sub par rounds. All four are ex
ceptionally strong in every depart
ment of the game, while the older
Mulder, Phil, and Olson, are noted
for the strength and accuracy of
their wood shots. Miller is a con
sistent golfer, yet lacks in tourna
ment experience, as does Meissner
in number six position.
The Duck green artists will
journey to Portland next months
for a return match with Columbia.

Bear Story From
Corvallis Campus
Favors Oregon
Word comes from the Oregon
State campus that the Ducks will
be favored to win the relay meet
held here Saturday afternoon.
Oregon should win such events
as the 440, the sprint medley, and
the distance medley, where there
is a good chance to set new rec
ords. Any concession on the part
of Oregon State or Coach Grant
Swan may be termed a bear story
because Oregon State’s best men
will be saved for the other events
in an attempt to win a meet vic
tory by taking Colonel Hayward
by surprise. The other events will
be very close and it will be the
ability of the Oregon runners to
run in more than one race that
will decide the meet.
Wright Receives
Report on Road
A detailed report of the condi
tion of the Pan-American highway
from Laredo, Texas, to Mexico
City has been received by Dr. L.
O. Wright, professor of romance
languages, in. response to requests
of several students for information
concerning the highway.
According to the letter, 300 of
the 763 miles from Laredo to Mex
ico City are paved, 400 are gravel,
and the rest are in poor condition
or under construction. The letter
also stated that the price of bonds,
necessary to take a car into Mex
ico, has been greatly reduced, now
being only a few dollars.
Accompanying the other infor
mation, was a profile map of the
highway, showing the various al
titudes of the road, which vary
from nearly sea level in the north,
to the highest point, at Rio Frio,
a few miles south of Mexico City.
Infirmary Has Five
Rain may be good for many
things on the campus but it is not
good for the students’ health. As
a result of the stormy weather
five patients are in the infirmary.
They are Frances George, Jill
Madsen, Ralph Prigmire, John
Derbyshire, and Russell Wood*
