Ernest Barnes Honored
At University of Arizona
When University of Arizona
at Tucson held its 44th annual
University Week activities on
May 9 and 10 Ernest L.
Barnes, retired Medford in
surance claims adjuster, was
the honored guest.
Barnes, member of the
Class of 1913, at Arizona, and
a track star in his own right,
originated University Week in
1912. Last week end's activi
ties were dedicated to him.
"I don't really remember
how I got the idea," Barnes
told Abe" Chanin, Arizona
Daily Star writer. "I was
founder and editor of the uni
versity newspaper ... and I
was writing sports for the . . .
Star.
"I just figured we didn't
have enough sports in the
state. There were only four or
five high schools in the Ari
zona Territory in '11. I talked
to anyone who would listen
and the next year I got the
okay to go ahead and bring
the high school kids in for
baseball and track. They also
had some singing, sewing and
spelling contests. But I wasn't
interested in that.
"I wanted the kids to know
the university better and I
guess the idea took hold."
Phoenix Declared Winner
Barnes recalled that things
did not go so well the first
year. He said the Phoenix
high coach complained that
Tempe had ineligible athletes.
It was decided to let Tempe
complete with a ruling to be
made afterward.
The committee left the deci
sion up to Barnes. Phoenix
and Tempe tied for the track
laurels. The Medford adjustor
had "a pretty keen eye for
trap athletes even in those
days" and decided that Phoe
nix should have the title
The Medford man was the
university's half-miler and ran
anchor on the relay team. He
is modest about his ability. In
1907, running for Prescott,
Ariz., high, he toured the half
in 2:10.
Barnes allowed that it was
a pretty good time for those
days. "At least, nobody could
beat me in the Arizona terri
tory. I guess the opposition
was weak."
Best in Nation
Chanin points out, however,
that Barnes' time was the best
for a prep runner in the na
tion that year. 1
In addition to the athletic
events of the first University
Week, oratory, algebra and
music were added. This year
the high school, representa
tives coming to" 'the campus
were entered in baseball,
track, tennis, golf, gymnastics
and smallbore rifle rivalry.
Barnes, who spent his early
life in South America and the
West Indies, completed gram
mar school education at Pres
cott. He entered University of
Arizona in 1909.

By UNITED PRESS
Oregon State gained on Uni
versity of Oregon in the
Northern division baseball
race Friday by defeating
Washington, 8-7, at Seattle
while the Ducks were being

Pullman, 14-8.

ing a bases-loaded homer and

their scoring in the first four
innings, piling up two tallies
in the first frame, four in the
next, six in the third and two
more in the fourth.
Four in Fourth
The Webfoots grabbed four
runs in the fourth inning off
Cougar starter Elwood Hahn.
Hahn gave up a single to Jim
Urness, three walks that
forced in a run, a hit to Jim
Hughes allowing two runs and
then Wimp Hastings singled in
the fourth run.
Oregon State's win was its
second straight over the Hus
kies. Washington committed
five crucial errors and the
Beavers piled on five runs in
