Virginia Wells Wins Coed' Tennis Semi-Finals Tilt uuring me warmest nours oi Thursday afternoon the girls’ semi-finals for interhouse tennis singles were played off. Virginia Wells, Tri-Delt, and Phyllis Iloot played one of the closest games of the tournament as they com peted for nearly four hours in a lively, evenly played match. The girl3 kept the score tied nearly the entire time. Miss Wells won the first match, 6-4, but Miss Root made a snappy comeback in the second set winning it, 5-7, thus forcing a deciding third set. Miss Wells Wins Following their long drives and fast footwork, bystanders saw the last set tied 3-3 with the By BILL STRATTON Tiio smallest track squad in Oregon history will embark for the Inland Empire some time this afternoon. They have their second dual meet of the year with one of the toughest teams in the con ference, Washington State. The 14-man squad is scheduled to leave on the 4:40 p.m. train, but they haven't been on sched ule, and it is possible that the cindermen will have to take the bus to Portland and the train from there to Pullman. All members of the traveling squad are urged to keep in con tact with Anse Cornell until noon today, in order to make sure of transportation means. Choose 14 Men The 14 men are the most versa tile men on the squad. Hayward hail to pick them in order to place one man in every event. It is pos sible that the Webfoots will be without a relay team, however. The squad includes Don Wilson, mile: Francis Tuckwiler, 440; Kenny Oliphant, 100; Zenas But led and Ralph Kramer, 120-yard high hurdles; Stan Skillicorn, 880; Bob Simpson and Kramer, 220; Bill Ross and Wilson, two mile; Butler and Oliphant, 220-yard low hurdles; Homer Thomas, pole vault; Bob Newland, high jump; Fred Foster, discus; Chuck El Give Your Shoes A Break!

A n attempt will be made to pick Ed Reiner up in Portland to compete in the middle distance events. Small Squad “It's a very makeshift lineup, but it's the best I’ve got and it'll have to do,” Hayward declared yesterday. Although the squad as a whole is small this year, some who are usually dependable will have to be left home because of high transportation costs. Although nobody was listed for the broad jump, it is possi ble that Butler and Newland will be entered. This leaves the bulk on the shoulders of swift Zenas Butier. He is entered in the high hurdles, low hurdles, probably the broad jump and possibly the 100. This has been his duty thus far in the season. There is a possibility that Hay ward will not make the trip, and the remaining two will be Train er Bob Officer, and Manager Bob McKinney. 1 1 1 Welcome Mothers to Junior Week End UNIVERSITY TilTLOR 1128 Alder Net Squads Tip Bearcats A- clean sweep of both varsity and fresh matches was recorded by the Duck netsters against Wil lamette university at Salem Thursday.

A smashing climax soon finished the game as Miss Wells won the next three games, making the score 6-3 in the last set. An unusual occurrence hap pened during the second set, proving how equally matched Miss Root anti Miss Wells were when one game went into deuce points 24 times and lasted 20 minutes. Pat Larkin, Alpha Phi, won from Maxine Mann, Hendricks, by default. Miss Larkin and Miss Wells will meet Sunday morning to decide the tournament winner.
