Crew ‘motivated’ to do well at local regatta ■The crew teams hope to perform well in front of the home crowd at their regatta By Jesse Thomas for the Emerald The Oregon men’s and women’s club crew teams will be competing in the 8th annual 2001 Covered Bridge Regatta this Saturday at Dexter Lake. The Ducks are co-hosting this race with the Oregon Association ol Rowers. With a large-scale team this year, there will be five women’s novice teams, along with three var sity teams. On the men's side, there will be two novice teams and foui varsity, all in different categories that will compete. “We are looking very strong and ex pecting high finishes this weekend,” Oregon coach Craig Gerlach said. Freshman Jenn Myers of the women’s novice team is expecting the team to do well based on how it has been practicing. Oregon is coming off strong fin ishes last weekend in Seattle at the Husky Invitational, where all its teams placed in the top three. Also last weekend, the Ducks were edged out in the end with Oregon State coming out on top. Revenge is possible, though, as the Ducks will face the Beavers again this weekend and expect them to be their toughest competitor. This is only Oregon’s second regat ta this season, and the Ducks feel con fident about the future. Although there are newcomers, the team has grown in size and experience. “Everyone on the team is motivat ed to do a good job and has bonded together,” Gerlach said. “We just ex pect to keep get ting better, and the team can go far this year.” The Ducks are looking forward to feeding off their hopes of a big crowd, considering this is one of the only regattas that is close to campus, in their quest for victory. Triathlon team excited about hosting event The Oregon club triathlon team is hosting the 2nd annual Duck Bill Chill Sprint Triathlon this Sunday morning on the University campus. The course for competitors will in clude a 500-yard swim in the Stu dent Recreation Center’s pool, a 12,4 mile bike along the Willamette River and a 3.1-mile run, which spans the perimeter of the Oregon campus. “It’s something positive that we’re bringing to campus,1’ sopho more Alisha Siecinski said. “It will be fun for those competing. ” The Ducks are hoping that this annual event will increase in size in years to come, as people become more aware of the on-campus event. “It’s an event for the entire com munity,” coordinator Jay Williams said. “It’s an introduction to the sport of triathlon to any and all who want to experience one.” Other dub sports in action: Men’s baseball in Bellingham, Wash., to play Western Washington ...

Student'Private Party Ads Only • No Refunds I , Horoscope by Linda C. Black TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (April 13). First finish school, then get the job Studies require your at tention in April. Keep at it until you get it right. Stick to your budget in May. You'll have plenty of the stuff you need in June. In July, you'll get something you don't realize you need. Apply in September, and choose in November. Graduate in December, and assume responsibility in Jan uary. In February, new friends help you see what's coming next.

You're about to encounter a reality checkpoint. Hopefully you're not over loaded. Clean up your act, and you won't be de layed for long. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) — Today is a 5 —You have a good idea about how to spend the day. A dear one may disagree, but that's OK.

Later in the weekend will be better. Or, later in the year. You might have time for a trial run this evening.

You both have some tiling to discuss with the person who has all the money. First list your options, including relocation. Then, settle for more benefits if ad ditional cash is not forthcoming LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) — Today is an 8 — Amazingly, the Garth has only appeared to be still over the past few days. It has continued to revolve, and quite a lot of work may have piled up as a consequence. You weren't worried about it then, and you shouldn't worry about it now. Just do it VIRGO (Aug. 2‘3-SepL 22) — Today is a 6— Work gets in the way of love, and that could make you cranky.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) — Today is a 7 — Even if you sometimes resist your job, and you occasionally resent it, you'll appreciate • it now, because that money is welcome.
