Clyde Young, the center of last rear's football team, was unanimous ly elected captain of this year's team last Tuesday by, the gridiron aspir ants. The whole student body agrees . that a better selection could not have been made. Jesse Carpenter entered school last week. He has been employed in a 'Portland shipyard the past Summer. ,'Jb bad fall caused the time since school started to be spent in a hos pital. Hence the tardiness in enter ing. . The football game last Saturday with Company C, stationed at Med ford, resulted in a score of 32 to 0 in favor of the visitors. However, they averaged ten pounds to the man. heav ier and have been playing the game for several years. Some were high chool graduates and college men.

A game has been arranged with Grants Pass for Saturday of this week, to be played at Ashland.

She leaves soon for an extended sojourn. Deportment cards were distributed for the first time this semester Mon day afternoon.

To wit, half the spokes In the front wheel of the Rambling Ranger missing; one pair perfectly good trousers rendered useless; .one wrist badly sprained. A "yell-leader tryout" was held Tuesday afternoon. The nominees valiantly tried to lead husky-voiced rooters, but" as one worthy expressed It. "It sounds like the Last of the Mohicans."
