TRACK TEAM BUSY.
Husky Bunch Out for Honors
Practice Daily.
Things are doing these days
out n the OAC athletic field,
where every evening "about 140
men are out for practice, striv
ing for honors in the various
track events of the coming sea
son .
Next Saturday is the Columbia
meet at Portland, where for the
past two years the OA.C men
have taken the honors of the meet
with ease. A victory this year,
however, is hardly anticipated by
the local lads, owing to the loss
of a large number of their strong
men who last year aided in win
ning the victory.
While no definite statement is
made, it is probable that those
who will go to the Columbia
meet will be Smithson, Beldec,
Cathey, Davolt, Greenhaw,
Beach, Swann, Finn and Good
rich. In the various events, the
practice is divided up about as
follows:
50-yd dash Smithson, Cathey,
Beach.
220-yd dash Smithson, Cath-
ey, Beach.
50-yd hurdle
ey, Swann.
440-yd dash-
-Smithsou, Cath--Greenhaw,
Da-
volt. Beach.
5-mile Greenhaw, Davolt.
Mile run Davolt, Goodrich.
Shot put Finn.
High jump Smithson, Swann.
Broad jump Belden, Swann.
Pole vault Swann.
Relay Greenhaw, Beach,
Smithson, Davolt.
Out of last year's team OAC
has lost Floyd Williams, the best
220 and 440-yard man on the
Pacific coast, and "Fat" Walker
in the shot put and hammer
throw, who defeated Tom'- Mc
Donald in the latter event last
year.
Another loss is Stout, perhaps
the best discus man in' Oregon,
and Abraham, another discus
expert. Shepard in the hammer
throw and Leonard in the dis
tajices, also Bower. . in the shot
put and distances and Steiwer in
the distances all these are de
cided losses that are keenly felt at
OAC this year.
There is much good new ma
terial in the bunch that is out
daily lor practice under the di
rection of "Dad" Trine, the pop
ular trainer who may always be
depended upon for iesults from
his men. Among the new fel
lows who are making excellent
progress and who promise to
make good, are noticed Dunlap,
the big football guard, and Tyler,
in the hammer throw, Chapman
and McKenzie in the high jump,
Goodrich and Winnitred in the
distances, Fox in the 440 and
Hall in the hommer throw.
While OAC may not win at
Columbia, there is every reason
to believe that later on in the
season they will be heard irom in
the usual way, and that victory
will perch on their banner in
many a desperate track conflict.
Withycombe Popular in Linn.
The closing ot the primary-
campaign brings to the people of
the state the realization that
good and true tnen will have the
nominations tor the several state
offices and especially is it evident
at this time that for the highest
place on the ticket a man will be
nominated who has not his super
ior in the state, and who will
defeat the democratic candidate
for governor and give Oregon a
state government such as the state
has never had in its entire
history. This man is Dr. James
Withycombe of Corvallis. Nearly
nis enure inetime nas L)r.
Withycombe spent in the state of
Oregon, during that time he ha
been closly connected with the
state and has seen the Pacific
coast section grew into one of
the richest and most progressive
farniipjf.and stock growing com-
munities. In fact, in this
growth he has had an important
part . As director of the experi
ment station at the OAC, Dr.
James Withycombe has done
much toward bringing about
these favon ble results in the
state, and his tireless work in
the interest of that institution
and the farmers of the state have
made him one ot the best
known and most popular men
in Oregon. This wide popular
ity in the state will stand Dr.
Withycombe in good stead when
on primary day the republicans
cast their votes for their choice
for governor, and he will receive
generous and hearty support in
every city, town and hamlet.
Albany Herald.
For the Hindu Boys.
The last meeting of the
Hindu-American . Association
was held on Monday last. The
discussion on how to study India
was led by Rev. Bush. He said
that a study of India was very
desirable and he was glad that an
association was formed with that
object.
Prof. G. Taillandier spoke ear
nestly and feelingly on Indian
music and said that India was
tar advanced in string music and
the world was probably much in
debted to India for string music
advancement.
Mr. M. C. Sinha gave a talk
on Ramayan one of the great
pics of India and quoted some
beautiful extracts showing the
teachings of Ramayan, and the
character of their excellence.
The meeting then adjourned to
Miss Snell's room where a num
ber of Hindu dishes prepared bv
Mr. Munshiram . were served to
the audience who did justice to
them.
Mr. Sinha told of the desirabil
ity of founding a Hindu . home,
with a view to-cheapen the- .ex
penses and thereby " enabling
more students to come for educa
tion in this country. He also
said that, if , we can get a. - house
all tor ourselves, Mr. Munshiram
will offer his services free ot all
costs? and cook for' the Hindu
boys in Hindu 'style. , The idea
was applauded and- a committee
composed of; Rev. Bush, Prof; E.
R. Lake and Miss Snell were ap
pointed to look into' the njat.:er
and to report as to its feasibility
in two weeks.
Unanimous vote of thanks was
extended to Mr. Munshiram for
his services as' cook that even
ing.

didates for U. S. Senator and for t!
other state and district offices and it i
a reasonable claim tnat Southern Or ego

Oregon ha never received any of thu
interest paid on its money and if elect ef
State Treasurer, I will pay over to th
state every -tollm of interest earned or
its funds whether a law be passed requir
ing me to do so or not. This will result
in a saving to the taxpayers of this state
of from $15,00 J to $20,000 per annum.
