    Spring Practice Ends Today;
Plans For Coaches Clinic Set
Coach Jim Aiken sent his Oregon
football players through a wet
practice session without pads Wed
nesday afternoon, in the next to
last workout of the 30-day spring
scrimmage. The squad will practice
this afternoon, and then lay off un
til the big Saturday intrasquad
football game on Hayward field at
2 p.m.
Ninety-seven high school foot
ball coaches have returned regis
tration slips for the two-day grid
iron clinic sponsored by the athlet
ic department, beginning Friday
noon. This is twice the number that
took in the occasion last year, and
more are expected to arrive with
out previous registration.

UW Favored
To Take ND
Tennis Crown
Washington’s Huskies, favorites
on the tennis courts all season, are
favored by dopesters to take the
northern division championship
this year.
The Huskies will do this, observ
ers say, this Friday and Saturday
at Pullman, in the northern divi
sion play-offs.
Oregon’s best chance will be for
the number three or four spot,
these authorities point out. The
Beavers from Corvallis are looked
at as the best contenders for num
ber two.
Washington State and Oregon
will have to fight it out for the
number three position in the tour
nament, with the loser taking the
fourth spot, ahead of Idaho, who
lias yet to win a match.
Jim Brink of Washington will be
a big attraction for fans in the
Pullman play-offs. Brink has not
dropped a match to any one in the
division this season, and is not ex
pected to do so. He will play num
ber one singles for the Huskies.
OSC may give Washington trou
ble, as it did in an earlier match
which the Huskies pulled out of the
fire with a 4-3 win. Beaver losses
have been limited to that one so
far this season, and the Aggies
have overpowered Oregon twice,
7-0.
