IIO.VOR TO OREGON'S ATHLETES
V T WAS fit to honor our athlete
Iand our athlete were fit to be
honored. Athletes are more
than mere athletics. Th thing
behind the game Is an antidote for
lfly-flngered effeminacy. There was
reason why J 00 Spartans disputed
the pass against nearly 2,000.000
Persian at Thermopylae. The hero
Ism of the Spartan was their .phys
ical Ideals capitalized. Oa of the
larcest factors In heroics Is confl
dence In physical being and pride in
rbysical exploit.
Marathon was one of the decisive
battle of th world. It formed a
turning point In the world' history.
It was a mortal conflict between the
past and the west. It was one of
thebegtnn!ng of the' dawn of liberty
which was to furnish tb atmosphere
required for the full developmeat
and culture of the human mind. Its
r;lrit is seen In the fleet athlete.

Charley Blank was a little undersized
runt of a man; one of the many made
to be moved on by policemen, jostled
by eubway ruards and generally hus

a wife, a motner-iin-iaw, - tnree aisiers-ln-law,

rabies, rheumatism, typhoid, mumps,
gumboils and bunions. So Charley was
quite resigned when Father-in-law
shoved a tube into his mouth and bade
him take a few pulls on It.

of blood passing rapidly through his
