The contestants will represent 16 houses in the quest for intra mural points and the national championship. The winning times made here will be sent to the na tional meet for the national cham pionships. Contestants must be on the field at 3:30 today, and instructions will be given at 3:40. The field has been divided into nine squads, and they will compete in rotation. Threefold Aim The- purpose of the meet is threefold—it will count toward the intramural championship, it will be Oregon’s attempt to repeat its national championship, and it will determine those who pass Sigma Delta Psi requirements. The meet, i under the direction of Russ Cut | ler, will be amply supervised by a field of officials that almost rivals the starting field in size.' The field is almost twice as i large as last year’s, and should 5 produce more than one new rec i ord. Advices from national head j quarters of the honorary state that a trophy will be given to the ten-man team that wins the na tional meet. This means that the best man in each of the ten events will have his record sent to the national competition, and the school that aggregates the high est marks wins the meet. The trophy will be an additiojj to the medals given the first, second, and third-place men, and the all-around open and closed championships that Oregon won last year. The contestants must supply their own track shoes, and they will be absolutely necessary in the mile run and the hurdles. Tennis shoes will do in other events, but contestants without track shoes will be seriously handicapped. Orides Whitewash Sigma Kappa Team Louise Pursley Fans Ten as Lasers Play Short-Handed The Orides defeated Sigma Kap pa, 9-0, in a one-sided game in coed softball Wednesday afternoon. The Orides had the advantage from the start due to the fact that Sigma Kappa fielded only five players. It was a pitchers’ game through out, Louise Pursley on the Orides team striking out 10, and Irma Helickson on the Kappa Sigma team catching seven flies. The Orides’ outfield and infield both played consistent games, but Sig ma Kappa managed to hold the score down despite the lack .of players. Two home runs were hit by Martha Wodeage and one by Catherine Luke, both of the Orides team. Lineups: Orides Sigma Kappa Luke.c.:.Sarlat Pursley.p.Helickson McCracken.lb.McNiece B. Wodeage.2.
