Twrt years ago, they perfected an organization but th e ir m eetings so far have consisted in m o n thly gatherings, attended by only a few. S till, all th in g s m ust have th eir be gin n ings,and now th e club has passed from its prim ative organization w ith the ex pectation of doing a good deal in the future. T he trustees have m ade a r rangem ents to lease th e upper part of th e F ailin g building, which is now being prprtf-d nn T hird and W ashington streets and next sum m er spacious club rooms will be fitted up. In addition to the regular club equipm ent, th ere will be a first class dining room and th e U niversi ty Club will probably be one of th e most attractive places in Portland. T here are a great m any college graduates in the m etropolis, and the success of the new venture seems assured. The club is open to all graduates o f Am erican colleges and universities. It is hoped th a t the University of Oregon will be rep resen ted by a goodly num ber in th is new o rg an i zation. Report of Track Hanager. Eugene, Oregon, Jan. 16, 1901.

JUNIOR ANNUAL The Class of 1902 Have Decided ‘.o Issue One. At a m eeting of the Ju n io r class T h u rs day it was definitely decided to put out an annual this year. E ditors were elect ed as follow«: E lito r in chief, Allen Eaton; associates, Miss Grace Plum m er, Isabel Jakw ay, Amy Holmes, Rose P ar rott, and Messrs. Geo Goodall and J. A. Gamber; business m anager, E. N. Blythe; assistants, Ross Plum m er, Chas. Campbell, A. F. Denny and Oscar Gor- rell. This will be the first annual u n d er taken in the U. O. and it is hoped th at th e stu d e n ts will give the Ju n io r class their hearty support. The 1902 class has a num ber of very cap ible m em bers m any of whom have had considerable experience on the college papers, besides newspaper w ork. An annual consists of a history of th e various student organizations, and h ap penings for the year. T his one will con tain pictures o f tlie campus, buildings, faculty, Glee and Treble Clef clubs and the athletic teams. To make an aunual interesting, it should contain joshes on the students and faculty, and as this class is very wide-awake, it will u n doubtedly find plenty. The class is establishing a precedent in p u ttin g ont this volume, and will need m uch support. Every college of im portance has an annual and as, the U. O. has become very prom inent d u r ing the last few years, on the track, gridiron and platform , it m ust not be w ithout an annual any longer. People who know o f the prow tss of the U. 0 . team s, have heard the Glee Club and Orators and debators will also w ant to s e e th e annual. The Ju n io r class has taken it upon itself to supply th a t want. It is a stupendous u n d ertak in g and all will not be sm ooth sailing, but if they receive the co-operation of the studant body th at they m erit it is sure to be a success. To W .

T he A m ateur A thletic Association of th e U niversity of W ashington held its annual election on th e 15II1 inst and elected E. W B rightm an, 02, as m an ager of all departm ents of athletics for th e com ing year. R. W. Iluntoon, 02, was elected as football captain. Mr. H u n to o n is a clever player and is well fitted for th e position of captain. The track team will be captained by Glen W. Caulkins, the ta r point-w inner of last season. Mr. C aulkins is one oi the best all around athletes in the Northwest and will m ake a first class captain He is a m em ber of the senior class. class has a part, and the dialogue is be ing reconstructed to fit the occasion. Sheakspeare gets into trouble in de fending his claim to the authorship of H am let, and Sir W alter Raleigh, to whom the m atter is brought for a rb itra tion, com plicates things by claim ing to have m ade the im m ortal trad eg y h im self. Some theories about evolution are a g i tated and settled in a way not alto g eth er orthodox, and an attem p t to bold a sto ry tellers’ evening ends in a general rough house. In th e course of events the Stygian ladies, including Queen Eliza b eth , X anthippe, O phelia, C leopatra, Madame Recamier, Cassandra, Lucre - zia Borgia, Portia ami Mrs N oah, steal on board the housebout, ami while satis fying fem inine curiosity, arc carried off by Captain Kidd ami his piratical fol lowers. The plans of th eir illustrious fem ales to outw it their abductors, ami the final rescue of the houseboat lead to all kinds of interesting situations. The play will be given with all the accessor ies of dress and scenery ^and the seniors are w orking hard to tu ike the occasi >n in terestin g to th eir friends. Important Musical Event. On the evening of Saturday, F ebruary 9th, Regiuald L H idden, th e great vio lin virtuoso, and F erd in an d K onrad, ’C elli-t, both of Portland, with W. Gif ford Nash, pianist and Miss R ita H an sen. contralto, of our musical faculty, will be heard in our grand concert in the Congregational church.

The program will c insist of trios for piano, violin and cello by H ayden, M endelssohn ami Gade, with groups of violin and ‘cellon and contralto songs No student should miss these infrequent opportunities of listening to good tnuuiic and sharing in the cultural influence which it exerts.

W hittlesey, of M ultnom ah; chief clerk, H olt Stockton; reading clerk , M. L- Rose; sergeant at-arm s, R. L. G rider; page, W aldo Bowers. C hief Justice H ooker adm inistered the oath of office to the new members. A n u m b er o f bills were introduced among them , one for the aid of the university. During the term of six weeks the live questions in our state will th u s be baouglit before the stu d en ts for discus sion and decision. 'Hie benefit o f such a course of work as the new Senate offers are very obvious. It is hoped th a t all th e literary society m em bers and others interested will take advantage to profit by the new departure. Y. W. C A ." The Y . W.
