Buck num held the fort and the frosh in the fourth and fifth, and in the sixth Chief McLean strode in from centerfield to take over the mound. McLean looked every inch a pitcher and he struck out. four batters in the two frames he worked. Hits by Lee Irwin and Jack Hay brought in a run off his delivery in the seventh, however.

This Truck Can Ski Just a big gadabout, which refuses to stop for any Kind of weather, is this freakish truck which the Russians call the “go every where” N ATI-3. It looks as if it would be a handy vehicle for some of the blizzard-beset communities in the United States, and it has proved its worth in Russia’s heavy snows this winter, with its front wheels. The truck, as shown here, can take a grade up to 38 degrees on Or,, ground and up to )io degrees on snow. f Lindgren, Webfoot Broadjumper Arne Lindgren, king of the Duck broadjumpers, is pressed hard this year by So weak Lloyd. Partitioning Starts on Second Floor of New Libe Partitioning work on the second floor of the infirmary was started yesterday. By the end of the week the second floor should be ready for the plasterers with all plumb ing and lighting conduits installed. Light weight gypson or plaster tile is being used instead of the heavier clay tile for the partitions because of the fairly light super structure of the building. Plasterers are at work on the hallways and other places where the bare cement walls are being plastered. Most of the interior has to be covered with metal lath be fore plastering in order to secure aa even surface over the re enforcements in the walls. Practically all sewer and water pipes have been installed. The cement block roof has been cov ered with a coat of taf paper, then a coat of tar and gravel to water proof it. A Venetian blind type of window has been installed in the window openings of the small cup olo on the top of the building. One of these top rooms will be used for a laundry room and the other for storage. Bricklayers are now working on the east end of the library. The west wing is practically finished on the outside even to the decora tive stone blocks on the top edge. All the concrete has been poured for the stack-rooms and most of the forms torn down. The upper parts of the walls were not poured until the roof slab forms were also ready. Scaffolding has been erected in the basement and the metal lath is being wired onto the supporting bars. On the first floor, workmen are still busy building the parti tions. Most of the walls are con structed of heavy red clay tile, but some of the rooms will be paneled, so these wall will be hung on a framework of two by fours. The ceilings of some of the rooms will be plastered directly over the cement while others will be lathed first.

SPORT CHAT By DAN CLARK it * 'T’HE major leagues teed off Tuesday before about 205,00(j fans, the largest aggregate turn out for one day the two top cir cuits have had in five years. New York turned out for the Giants Brooklyn game 55,590 strong to mark up the largest single gate. It looks like the game is coming back. Baseball is a pretty good thermometer of the condition of business. If the customers keep clicking the turnstiles in the man ner they did Tuesday it will be a hearty vote of confidence for good times again. The colorful figures of Dizzy and Daffy, Schoolboy Rowe, Bill Terry, Mickey Cochran, and others all have something to do With it. The loss of Babe Ruth hasn't helped. But, the pocketbook is what curbs or increases attendance, as well as the kind of team. * * * J INTEREST In Wei Mien's at belies on the Cdmpus hds been Increas ing lately. The co-eds ate follow ing the progress of their teams more closely, and are mote willing to participate, in past years the women’s organizations would en ter teams, but the most the rest of the girls heard abodt It, or cared, was a report at house meet ing. now there are more entries In tournaments and meets, and the living organizations are turning otit to cheer tHeir entries in the cbhtests. * * * 'J'HIS department has no wish to start a squabble with the Register-Guard sports staff, but we must fly to the defense of our own Anonymous field. Doesn’t France have its own uh 'knotvn soldier? Doesn’t America have a tothb for the unknown hero? Then why can’t the Univer sity have its mohument to the Anonymous athlete, that poor, un praised, unnoticed man who strug gles for His alma mammy, on the scHlb team ? ? We might even start an eternal flame burning in the pitcher’s box, something hot on the mound.
