UXIVERSITT OF OREGON, Eugene, March 9 (Special.) Gloom hovers over the cinder path, the running- shed and the jumpinc pit on Kincaid Field- a low-hanging-, threatening: gloom such as haa never before invaded the Oregon campus since Trainer "Bill' Hayward came to pitch his camp under the Lemon-Yellow colors. And the date of that event has been lost in the dim, dark recesses of the oldest fan's memory. "Bill" he is know by that title to everyone, from the most dignified pro fessor to the lowliest freshman has become an institution in the univer sity. He has been the guardian of the physical condition of the football, bas ketball and baseball men for so long that his medical kit has taken on the appearance of the one we used to see in the hand of the village doctor. But it is in track and field athletics that "Bill" has been supreme. But Oregon must do without Hay ward this Spring. At least until the very eve of the big meets. Broken down by illness that has been hanging with him since early In the Fall, the veteran trainer has retired to the farm of Grover Simmons, three miles out of Silverton, to rest and regain his health. And all that the varsity's squad of green track men will get from him is absent treatment by mail and wire, in terspersed by an occasional visit of a few hours to the scene of their activ ity. Friday the veteran trainer came back to the campus for one such visit, though the trip cost the exertion or a lot or his already low store of energy. It could not have been other than a se- rinns nhnr-k to him when he taced the men that answered his first call of the season. Among them was not a letter man. not a man that had ever before donned the varsity spikes. Just his presence, however, started the ball rolling in a way that will take the sting off promised deteat. wnat he told those men won't be known gen erally for a while, but it brought the old fight" to life. Thirty-tive poten tial champions issued from the doors of the coach's office at the close of the meeting, where not one had entered. Tomorrow the first real work of the year will commence under the pro gramme that Hayward marked out To a great extent each aspirant for the team will direct his own destinies so far as daily practice is concerned, but the following men are to take the Hay ward course of instruction by corre spondence and pass it on to others who may try a hand at their events: Wilson and Warner, 440 and 220-yard events; Coleman, mile and two-mile; Gilbert and Runquist, shotput and discus; Fos ter, sprints; Still, high jump and pole vault; Masterson, high and low hur dles; Montague, half-mile. Goreczky, the only track letter man in school this year, who was looked to as a pivot around which to build the team, will probably not be available, as he expects to enter the ordnance course that opens its work on the campus next .week, , . BASEBALL SOOfl TO HOLD SPORT ARENA High Schools Begin to Heed Call of Diamond and Teams Await Summons. TEN MAY ENTER CIRCUIT Interest or Interscholastic League Is Aroused and Coming Season Promises to Bo One of Keen Competition Throughout. The next major high school sport on the 191S programme will be interschol astic baseball. After a highly success ful baseball season this year the vari ous schools and coaches expect a base ball season of the same caliber. At first it was thought that interschol astic basketball would not go because of the lack of experienced players and other conditions caused by the war, but much to the surprise of everyone the crowds tourned out larger than ever and the games, on an average, were as good as any previous ones in the history of the popular indoor game. There were also a number of good players uncovered that compared fa vorably with the best men in past years. Although the teams were not as heavy in weight as in seasons past, they had the speed which more than makes up for weight in an ordinary basketball game. The experiment in the division of the schools into two leagues also proved to be a great suc cess and it would not be a bad idea if the same plan was carried out in inter scholastic baseball, of course, providing there were as many teams out for baseball this year as there were for basketball. Baseball is affected by the shortage of letter men the same as was basket ball, and more. Looking over all of the baseball material in the schools this year it will be found that there are only four or five letter men In thu whole lot taken together, but accord ing to advance notices, there is a lot of new material at the different insti tutions that looks good. It is almost certain that Washing ton, Jefferson, Lincoln, Commerce, Co lumbia and Franklin High Schools will put teams in the field this year, while Hill Military, Christian Brothers, Ben son and James John have signified their desire of entering the league this season. If all of the above teams enter It will make 10 aggregations, the same as .in the interscholastic basket ball league. Last year none of the high schools played interscholastic baseball, as the league directors decided to cancel it for 1917 on account of the war. Now that conditions have become more set tled and all branches of sport are being encouraged by the Government, the schools are looking forward to a highly successful baseball season after a year's rest. A number of the high schools called meetings last week and all decided on interscholastic baseball and track. The coaches will call first practice as soon as the weather permits, which will probably be some time this week. Several of the schools have not chosen their baseball coaches yet. Those that are all ready to start work are: Homer Jamison, of Jefferson; White, of Franklin; "Tick" Marlarkey, of Columbia; Brother Fabian, of Chris tian Brothers, and Wells, of Benson. Either Dr. Fenstermacher or Hollaway will coach Washington. The Lincoln. Hill, Commerce and James John coaches are yet to be announced. Washington and Franklin are both ready for the first call for practice this week. The following will go out for the team at Franklin: Tucker, Thomas, Thompson, Borelli, Reynolds. Dudley, Johnson, Hess. Koutledge and Patterson. Some of the players who will answer the first call at Washing ton are: Mann, Clough, Yerger. Kid well. Hitchcock. Steiger, Newman. Lind say and Wilderman. Steiger is the only letter man back. The Faculty Interscholastic Leaguo directors will hold a meeting this week and talk over the interscholastic base ball and track situation and draw up a schedule for the Spring sports.
