et al Invention study planned The University’s Innovation Center has been chosen to analyze the commercial feasibility of energy-related inventions that are submitted to the federal government. The inventions to be studied for marketability will be provided by the National Bureau of Standards, the federal body that approves or disapproves inventions for governmental funding University of Oregon DEPARTMENT OF PHYSICAL EDUCATION CONTINGENCY PLANS FOR MEN’S IM SOFTBALL This spring we are experiencing exceptionally heavy and persistent rainfall which forces us to make some changes in the men's softball program. We will not be able to complete the softball plan that was programmed at the beginning of the term, viz., that each team was to play a round robin followed by a single elimination play-off tour nament with two teams in each league in the contest. The number of days remaining for play will not allow us to complete the above plan. Therefore, the two top teams in each league will not play in the elimination tournament and only the winning team in each league will be scheduled for the elimination contest. If further delays occur because of postponed games due to rain or poor field conditions, the single elimination tournament will not be held at all and all points (all year point system) will be awarded on a league play basis. The wiiner of each league will be declared the champion. “Can you III be a student leader?” Applications are now being taken for these and other ASUO positions. • ASUO Press Officer * Student Administrative Board VP Univ. and Student Affairs * Admin.
