Haw ley. Mr Hawley isooe of the most prominent of our public officials, and will have a real message to deliver t> the students and to our citizens, lb* is a member of the ways and tr .-an« committee of the house of representatives, this committee be ing classed as the greatest money s|>rnding committee in the world Hit« is because the business of the national government has grown to such pro|M>rtions that tne committee has to kwp a watchful eye en its appropriations. The graduates are eager for the meeting tonight, for it io the great est event in their livee. They will always remember the time Coo- grenian Hawley spoke to them, and will thus be imbued with a greater desire to forge to the front in an educational way. The older one* will also receive much they do not know, so we will all be benefited by hearing our congreaaman. Re on hand tonight at the gymnaaium. the big community hall.

Thevimt- ors took their defeat somewhat to heart, and in the first half of the eighth inning tried to quit in a huff b, i<ausr of an error committed by one <>f their players in putting a man out at second, but this was {latched up. and the game ended with the above result. Scio played exceptionally good ball. SCIO OREGON. THURSDAY.
