Sod Being Put On Hayward Field by WPA Gridiron Got* First l»it Of Grass as W o r k Enters Final Slaves of Project Green, grassy sod is actually br ing laid on Hayward gridiron! After weeks of qidet work checking the drainage system, plowing, fertilizing, discing, and harrowing workmen have reach ed the point of sodding Oregon's football field. It is only a small area, about go feet square, on the northeast corner of the field that has been sodded, but with a little imagina tion one can already picture what the rounded grass field silghtly raised along the middle and gently sloping down to the sidelines, will look like when Oregon tangles with Stanford next fall. Groups Come to Rescue Lifesavers in the pinch were the Sigma Nus and those interest ed in financing the project. Sev eral groups of people have donated help in the work. Babb's hardware has furnished the tractor that WI’A men have been running for three or four weeks. Dick Reed, end coach of the Duck football team donated 80 tons of bain fertilizer from the high class stork of his dairy farm, Manerud - Huntington fuel com pany furnished trucks for trans porting the manure, and members of Oregon’s football team gladly donated the brawn for shoveling the stuff on and off the trucks. Besides the actual sodding there is much more to do yet. The con struction of an irrigation system, for one. Also a thin layer of rich loam will he spread over the sod, and on that will be seeded a hardy grass, also to be donated by a friend frum Portland, that should make a tough playing gridiron. Romeo Dunks Love (Contiiniril from f>tuir one) new portable victrola to the bottom of the race. At the present time Devers is asking Martin for $100, damages incurred to clothes, loss of portable, etc., while rescuing Martin’s girl. But the wily Willy just doesn't care and doesn’t intend to “fork over” any $100. He has retained as at torneys Harry McCall and Arvin Robb to defend him tonight, and according to Heartbreaker McCall he can’t lose, having retained the best attorneys (excuse) in the country. Prosecuting attorneys are Bill “The Terrible” Davis and George Birnie of the silver tongue. Both sides intend to shoot the works tonight. Anything goes, within reason, and there may be some ear-batting. Judge Hollis must keep order, of course. Incidentally, while defense at torneys McCall and Robb have been sweating the past two weeks, pre paring their case, George Birnie has been much in evidence at the Side. After all, there's nothing quite like confidence. ATTENTION C1NDKKMEN Notice — Truckmen concerned with next week’s intramural truck meet may see about their shoes at the Igloo today.

Decision Asked Sophomore class President Har ry Weston asked the judiciary board to render a decision on the petition contesting the results of the class election last Thursday. A petition was filed with Weston by Bud Burnett, campaign manag er of the losing party bloc, follow ing the hectic argument over the results of the election. Disputes arose following the counting of votes when three mem bers of the counting committee tried to withhold from publication the tabulation of votes, the com plaint says. After the sheet disap peared, a recount was ordered to obtain the counts. Proxy Questioned A long dispute over the legality of the proxy votes, run in during part of the election, kept the re count from being made till three and one-half hours following the election, when both parties agreed to abide by the count, pending a judiciary decision.

Nominations for class officers may be made from the floor, and elections are scheduled for early next week, probably on Tuesday, | Benson said. V Dirt - Mongers Seek Abductor Of Green Lucy Lucy is gone—kidnapped. Lucy the Goose that is—the know-all see-all, tell-all goose that docs the dirty work for the Sigma Delta Chi pledges in gath ering dirt for the scandal sheet that bears her name. Lucy was stolen away in the dead of night. All efforts to get in touch with the kidnappers have failed. Not even a ransom note has appeared. But I here are whisperings in the air that Lucy will be re venged. Lucy— a cross between green and yellow Oregon duck and a jeep, has rare telepathy powers. But telepathy is not yet per fected, and the message that \ came was badly jumbled. There was something about a mottled 1896 Ford, and something about Gimna Su or some such mixture of letters—it became very vague at this point. However, the pledges gathered in a mass meeting and they chorused, "When we track down the abductors of Lucy, they will leave town directly after May 26." Cornell to Review Sports A review of University of Ore gon sports cf past, present, and future will be given at the weekly meeting of the Eugene Kiwanis club at the Osborn hotel Monday noon. It will be presented by An- , son Cornell, director of athletics, or Howard Hobson, basketball and baseball coach.
