there has been no step in that direc

UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, Eugene,
March 18. (Special.) With the erasure
of baseball from the sport calendar of
the University of Washington for this
year, it appears that Oregon and O. A.
C. are to be the only contenders for
the championship of the West Side
division of the Northwest conference.
Also it is probable that the only inter
collegiate games to be played by these
teams will be the ones arranged for
between themselves. ' J
Due to the heavy expenses, there will
be no games between the colleges' of
the East and West Side divisions, and
for the same reason the California in
stitutions declined to schedule contests
with the Northwest nines. The scrap
between the varsity and the Aggies will
be settled in eight contests, according
to present plans, four being slated for
each campus.
There is a possibility that the spring
vacation trip planned for the varsity
squad will have to be abandoned, due
to the lack of games. Graduate Man
ager Tiffany had hoped to arrange
contests with Mount Angel and Chema-
wa. as well aa three or four In Port
land with shipyard teams, but so far
only one game has been definitely set
tled upon.

One Thing War-Times
Have Taught Me Is
How to Buy Clothes"
"With demands from all sides for
money, I just found I couldn't keep up
a decent appearance. Jack, and make
ends meets on my salary. In my busi
ness as a salesman it's a real asset to
be well dressed. And just at the criti
cal time I discovered Cherry's, that
swell shop in the Pittock block, where
they sell such classy suits and over
coats for men on credit. Pick out what
you like and wear it while you pay foe
it. No big hole in your salary no
strain. I'm mighty sorry I didn't know
about Cherry's system sooner I might
have saved myself weeks of shabby
clothes and a lot of worry about the
clothes question. They are showing
some new Easter clothes that are sure
winners. Want the number? 389-91
