SKILL, NOT MUD, DID IT.
The statement made by ; the
"Eugene Guard" of the 26th
ins-., accusing the'QAC football
players, in the game of last Sat
urday, of having flooded the
ground the night before to make
the field muddy, is without just
cause. It is true that the ground
was muddy . and . was of that
character which . follows frost at
night, and Rawing .during the
following i fotenoon , and so was
all the ground1 fflitside the lines
and all about; town.
The; Gazette- is pleased to
acknowledge that telegraphic
communication has been received
from the i University , team, an
nouncing their -disavowal of the
expressions along the lines found
in the "Guard."
We acknowledge that the
OAC people are ingenious and
cacable, yet they have not dis
covered by what means they can
temper the weather so as to pre
vent these results.
"The : "Guard" assumes to
gather up outside expressions of
persons whpse identity it does
not vouch for, but presumes to
hold the OAC student body re
sponsible for these utterances.
The fact is, that the Eugene
team with their friends came
down expecting that the defeat
of the Corvallis team was a fore
going conclusion and easily ac
complished, but once on the
ground they found strong, able
opposition. Their contention
seems to be that the condition of
the field prevented them from
scoring.
It is quite possible that the
same cause is what prevented
the Corvallis team from scoring.
Or did the Eugene team have
anything to do with resisting
the progress of the Corvallis
team preventing the latter from
scoring and winning the game?
On the other hand if the OAC
team had been off the field would
the condition of the ground have
irevented!the Eugune team from
winning the game?r Or. was it
. the stubborn, able resistance of
the OAC team which :- prevented
their opponents from scoring?
It is quite possible that if the
contest had been played upon a
field comparatively dry the
OAC players: would have won
out, because they have been well
trained, and are an able body of
men.

Why Not Use Electric Lights?
Stop scratching matches on ) our wall
Those streaky match scratches look
mighty bad on anyjwall. But as long as
yon continue to use gas or oil you've got
to use . matches.
The "matchless light" is the electric
light, a simple twist of the wrist does it.
We are improving and perfecting our
lighting service in this city and can give
better service for less money than ever
in the history of the city.
The cost of wiring has been reduced
