all right by the rest of us, if they live
up to their promise, and bring back
enough pheasants to put on a feed for

EUGENE CHAPTER No. 6
The "Engineers vs. Maintenance
Crews” was the order of. the afternoon
on September the 3rd, when a softball
game was played. This was the result
of the members having contracted "Ball
Fever” at our picnic which was held
in August. Much friendly rivalry ex
isted, because—the losers were obligat
ed to pay for ice cream and cake, after
the game.
Umpires Dade and Mclrwin tossed
the coin for Captains Martin and Sher-
rett—and the game was on. The Main
tenance crew went to bat, and brought
in one run, then the Engineers brought
in two runs. From then on it was a
hard job to pick the winner as the
score was tied most of the game. How
ever, the timely heavy hitting of Sher-
rett’s crew paid dividends, so at the
end of the ninth inning the score stood:
MAINTENANCE 11, ENGINEERS
9. The Engineers paid for the dessert.
Ted Layton has been in the hospital.
He went over the grade riding a blade.
Bob Lockyear and John Quiner have
left Umphlette’s crew,' and have re
turned to their studies at Eugene high.
