I was out wan dering around Hayward field yes terday afternoon, and the meet that is to be held at Corvallis Sat urday afternoon was all over as far as some of the Oregon track team was concerned. Don’t get the idea that I am trying to run anybody down, and I ain’t gonna mention any names. J do know of a track meet that was held with O.S.C. two years ago, when Oregon should have scored at least 80 points, which is enough to have a very comfort able lead and the meet cinched. Yet some of tire boys were a bit over-confident and lost ‘out here and there and the meet slipped between their fingers. Mr. Chuck Fyock of the I5eav ors is going f« be a very diffi cult man to beat. He lost out by not over three inches to Idaho in a 0.8 hundred, and l’!l ' defy the Oregon sprinters to do better than 9.8. Oregon State has a fine hur dler in Prahl, and he will be gunning for MeCoy and Now land. Two very fine distance men are Gug-gisberg and Nelson of the Orange team. They take a back seat to no man who thinks he has things in the bag. They are competitors. Enough on this, but let any track man who has already counted up his five points, count his change again Saturday aft ernoon. * * * It is about time for another weather prediction. I understand that the student players are put ting on the “Taming of the Shrew,’’ by Bill Shakespeare. They are going to play out in the open. X watched them work out night before last and they are pretty foxy. I liked that part where Petruchio and Katherine w-ere in the midst of one of their move ments and the fox-terrier rushes onto the scene to save the wench. But to get back to the weather, I am in league with Jupe Pluvius and he says “to hell with the stu dent players.” I personally shall pull the chain just as the curtain raises for the first act. I wisli to retract a statement that I made when I first went out for track. This gets back quite a Swim Trunks at DeNeffe’s We Feature the F amous G. & M.

(Special) The University of Oregon's mad dash for the northwest baseball pennant was abruptly and rudely halted here this afternoon by a fast, hard-hitting Vandal nine, 8 to 7. Oregon scored six runs in the second inning, then Anderson, a sophomore, took up the hurling du ties for Idaho, and held the Web foots to one run, in the fourth. Wally Geraghty started the Vandal scoring spree, when he hit a circuit blow in the first. Cy Geraghty fol lowed with another home run in the third. In the fourth canto, Shodde hit a home run with two on bases. Later Wheeler hit an other four-bagger. Going into the fifth trailing by one run, Idaho evened things up when Katsilometes reached first on an error, stole second, reached third on another error, and tied the score on a sacrifice. Shodde came across with the winning tal ly on a squeeze play. Anderson checked any further efforts on the part of Oregon. Summary: R. H. E.

T wandered out on Hay ward field and the old Colonel •says, “What can you do, Bower man, throw a javelin?” I re marked that I can't even throw a baseball, whereat the Colonel in timated that I was a quarter miler. So I got the idea that hard work was good for me and fell off 30 pounds and remarked that anybody that ran anything over 440 was a bit mentally imbal anced. That included the half niilers, and longer distance men. I have remarked often that they even acted queer when they were off the track. Let me say now that such a statement was entirely erroneous. They are not mentally unbal anced. On the contrary, they have minds of the highest order and l.tj.’s very near to the genius. ;\Ve shall not make an actual survey but that Is my personal opinion.) No sir, I can think of nobody any smarter than a 830 man. And do not think for a minute that the pos bllity of my running in the half mile had had anything to do with my alteration of opinion. I can't help but dwell for a bit on the Northwest track meet that is to be held here in Kugene, June 2. Anybody that doesn't take ad | vantage of this chance ought to 1 be branded mentally incompetent and put through the process which has been suggested for the better ing of the human race in the gen erations to come. By gosh, some, in fact every event will be so closely contested that students will be well repaid by the sight of one event, and those who have to make an extra cash outlay will get their money's worth in one race. It is the chance of the student lifetime. The Northwest is held here once in seven years, and those who do not see it this time will probably never have a chance I to see the pick of the athletes of J the Northwestern states, perform | ihg in competition to win the right | ti compete in the National inter j collegiate.

EXECUTIVE COUNCIL OF A. S. U. 0. MEETS (Continued l'rom Page One) has no power to make gifts in the form of fee refunds. “2. In answer to the second question enumerated above, it is the opinion of the judiciary com mittee that the executive council lias no authority to refuse to ac cept payment of fees tendered by legisterod students. A registered student in the University of Ore gon. having' complied with the present requirements, is entitled to all of the privileges offered by the University of Oregon, its student organizations, and institutions un der the supervision, direction, and control of the University or indi rectly connected therewith. The judiciary committee finds nothing in the constitution or by-laws of t Ire associated students that pro vides for the expulsion of members and no other requirement for mem bership other than a person must be a registered student and pay a $f> fee. Therefore, the executive council seems to have no basis upon which to refuse to accept payment of a fee tendered by a registered student." The minutes of the meeting of the finance committee were read and approved "Patronize Emerald Advertisers."

Duck, Beaver Track Teams Rated Even Squads Meet Saturday At Corvallis Hayward Will Use Same Lineup; Oregon State Athletes Have Improved i _ . The University of Oregon track and field team journeys to Cor vallis Saturday for its final meet before the Northwest track classic | to be held here Saturday, June 2. The track team from Oregon State has improved with leaps and ; bounds since its overwhelming de feat at the hands of the Univer | sity of Washington. Doc Grant Swan's men will be given an even j chance to take the University | team. Swan has developed some of his 1 men so much in the one season that he has been at O.S.C. that i they are real threats for first place in the conference meet. Bronson Fast Stepper Bob Bronson, in the 440-yard event, has bettered the track rec ord at Corvallis in nearly every meet he has competed in this year. In the 880, Will White is cutting his time down by the seconds and is favored over Oregon’s George Scharpf. Colonel Hayward will take prac tically the same team to Corvallis that took 8l/2 first places to Wash ington State’s 6]/2 In the javelin, Bob Parke will be the class with his consistent throwing of better than 200 feet and his breaking of the record in the meets that he has thrown in. In the broad jump Oregon has Arne Lindgren, who was nos^d out by Parke at Pullman. They will be competing against S k e e t O’Connell of Oregon State. Lind gren is improving with every day’s practice and stands a fine chance of taking the State jumper. Nowland Favored Hurdlers for Oregon will be Ma son McCoy and Fred Nowland. Nowland will be the head man in the high jump if his competitive ability that placed him first against Washington and Washing ton State holds out. The pole vault pits Ken Wood; consistent first money man of Oregon, against Prahl of the Beav ers. Oregon has Howard Patterson in the 440 and is a toss up for first place. Patterson beat Nich ols of W.S.C. and will press Bob Bronson all the way. In the sprints Oregon will be favored by the running of Bud Shoemake and Walter Hopson, but Chuck Fyock of the Orange team stands a good chance . of nosing the Oregon men out. The distances will be anybody’s race. Luddington and Guggisberg will be competing in the mile. Bob Wagner may find plenty of com petition from Oregon State’s two miler, who won handily from Idaho. ■ -_ Upperclass Breakfast Will Be Given Sunday At the junior-senior breakfast which will be held in Gerlinger at 9 a. m., Sunday, May 27, the hon ored guests will be Mrs. E.

Digestions League Cup Goes To Barefoot Alpha Hall Nine By BILL McINTURFF This morning, when the Alpha hall boys came down for break fast, they were welcomed by a flashing, silvery cup reposing on their mantel. They won this cup by trouncing the Zeta hall soft ball team last night, 9 to 3, for the championship of the dormitory Digestion league. This same team (then living in Friendly hall) also won the cup last year. “A good big man is better than a good little man” was once a pet slogan of mine, but last nfght I had it exploded. When the Zeta and Alpha teams were lined up in the field they had about the same ratio as Tusko and Mickey Mouse, and yet the midget Alphans wal loped their beefy opponents. By the third inning the Alphans had put the skids on the Zeta club. Fred Hunt, Zeta rooter and fielder, was pacing the sidelines, shouting out the news that the barefoot boys from Alpha were leading by the discomforting score of 6 to 1. His pep talk seemed to effect his teammates and they played a bet ter brand of ball in the next few innings. In the fifth frame, however, the Alpha team initiated a regular old tent meeting batting spree and soon filled the bases. Then bare footed Mike Chrones took an un derhanded swing and lobbed the grapefruit into the left field area. Zeta fielders Andy Morrow and Fred Hunt leaped for the ball and crashed like a couple of twin loco motives, in mid-air. The ball rolled idly to the ground and lay there as Chuck Fahey, Alpha run ner, bounded home. Bill Ito had kept the game in the palm of his twirling hand for the first of the game, but in the sixth the Zeta batters ran amuck. With two down and two on bases, Roy Vander Zanden plopped out a baffling Texas leaguer to score Roland King and Hunt. Alpha allowed only one man, pitcher Dutch Clark, to get on base in the last inning. And when Ito had fanned the last batter, the championship Alpha team tottered off the field to the raucous cheers of their loyal supporters. Pictures of Mayan Pottery Received A collection of photographs of Mayan pottery of the later era is on exhibition in the southeast I room on the second floor of Con >don hall. The collection was pre pared by James E. Carter of Cleve land, Ohio, and sent to the Uni versity for inspection. The collection will not be pur chased for the anthropological mu seum, as it represents only the lat er period of Mayan occupation. This race of people lived in Central America up to the time of the com ing of the Spaniards. With one or two exceptions, the pictures give no indication of the pottei’y of the first empire. Two methods of decoration were used on this early pottery: paint ing and sculpture. The sculpture consisted of either building up the figure desired, or obtaining it by incising the design upon the jar. Remarkable likenesses of dogs and bears are shown on some of the pottery as well as clear designs of human beings. The exhibit is open from 8 to 5 and will be open to visitors until the end of this week. It is free of charge. Yeomen Club Officers Installed at Conclave Officers of the Yeomen organi zation for next year were installed at the regular meeting of the group in the Y hut last night. Vir gil Esteb, president; Don Farr, vice-president; Ernest Savage, sec retary; and Ted Giesecke, treasur er, received the oath of office. Plans and policies for the com ing year were discussed and re ports from various committees were read at the session. Dean Rebec Speaks George Rebec, dean of the grad uate division, spoke on the work of the graduate division Tuesday evening over Corvallis radio sta tion KOAC. We thank you—the stu dents of the University— for your business during the past year. Also, your many courtesies to us are appreciated. It has been an enjoyable privilege to serve you. KENNELL-ELLIS STUDIO Tennis Coacli Lists 12 Men For Awards Letters, Numerals Asked For Players YVashke Thanks All Netmen Who Turned Out; Prospects For 1935 Good The same six varsity net men who defeated Oregon State Tues day, and the same six Frosh who played against the Rooks have been recommended by Coach PauL R. Washke to the athletic council to be awarded letters and numer als.

"Every single man will be back next year,’’ he declared. ‘‘Pros pects for a winning team are good. But if the sport is going to really develop on this campus as I feel it deservedly should, more money to support it is greatly needed.” Results of Tuesday's match are as follows (Oregon men named first): Varsity Tom Mountain defeated Lench itsky, 6-4, 6-1; Cosgrove LaBarre lost to Leidig, 4-6, 2-6; George Economus defeated Moe, 9-7, 6-0; Harlan Thompson lost to Brandt, 6-4, 2-6, 3-6; Norman Winslow de feated Miller, 6-4, 6-3; Mountain and LaBarre lost to Lenchitsky and Leidig, 3-6, 4-6; Economus and Fred Fisher defeated Moe and Brandt, 6-8, 9-7, 6-4.
