' Captain Coleman and His Mates Are Strong on Track and Weak ; ness irrield Events Is Being Gradually Overcome With ' Turnout of New Material Which Shows Promise OREGON AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE, Corvallis, April 6. Witji the rapid approach of the track season, prospects of developing a winning' squad from among the bunch of raw material with which Captain Coleman Has been coping foHhe past two months are appearing better now than at any time this year. 1 Although somewhat weak m the field events, the Aggies are 'rapidly developing an aggregation of cinder artists such as bodes ill for any other would-be championship team on' the coast. Led by "Coley," the only lctterman on the squad, the Beaver speed men are hanging up numerous locat records and promise to present the keenest sort of competition when it comes to any of the run ning events. t - Sprlggs nd Reynolds, wltl) Ford and Buttervlich as clone compet itors, are looming tip in great shape In the two mile, while "Coley" Is stepping oft In both the mile and the half in a manner which easily makes him a first place man. In the middle distances, Kcea, Packard and Sleberts are rounding to fine form, with 8cea stepping off In a manter which befits a vetaran at the garnet' Mattox, one of the high point men In the recent Intramural meet. In proving ,a coming Star In the sprinting events, i Hardier .Downed bjr Measles . TUdcliffe, Hornemind tkleman are all showing up well In both the high and low hurdles, though Rad cliffe, ,at present' sick with the measle. will bo out of the game for a few days. . ;: , The field events are presenting the only cause for worry in the lo cal, camp, although Coach Final is looking tor them to, Improve consid erably bofore the season starts. The i .. loi lose of Dale Perry, the best weight man in ennoot, has .left quite a gap I " . mi In the squad and one' that win be hard to fill.

Would-be track art- lata are turning out in great num- bers, however, and expectations' are" '.'high that the weak spots will soon b filled. ' Because of weather conditions, little work has yet been done with : eUher the javelin or discus.

Washington, April 2. (IT. P.) De claring they are not profiteers and that a $2.20 wheat price is sufficient, farm ers of 23 states meeting here today are on record against the congressional pro posal of 'a $3.50 price, - With .one exception, the group favored the lower figure, saying: Wheat at $2.60 means flour will cost a barrel more and that will make bread prohibitive for thousands next year. We can make a fair profit at the lower price." f The $2.50 measure, is now in , confer ence In congress. It will come to the floor for a full discussion soon, again. The food administration opposes the $3.50 price. Men who sold their 1817 wheat at the $2 figure say the $2.50 price for 1918 would give an undue ad vantage to the men who boarded their lSn crop, waiting for higher prices. The farmers who voted for the low price came here to attend, the first con ference of the agricultural department's advisory committee. - ; Delay I. W. W.
