We want to remember everyone so far as it is possible. In order to do this, there must be a representation of each class in school. It is the purpose of this issue of The Ledger to secure a fair representation from the Freshman to theASenior, to try to acquaint ourselves with those students who are not as well known as others, and yet those, who in their quiet unobstrusive way, won a place for themselves in the hearts of those who know them. The purpose of the introductory poem to the book is to catch the spirit of the rose in an effort to compare it with life. Though tomorrow we may laugh, and live, and for- get, let us today laugh, and live, and remember. Rose Fragrance PART ONE When dawn the rosy fingered, high Across the azure of the sky Laid streaks of color bright and rare, Like strands of dew kissed flowers fair, To greet the coming of the morn With lovely beauty, and had torn Too soon the curtains of the night Awayg then issued forth the light And with its bright celestial gleam It sent into a glen a beam And there a lonely rose was born Upon a rosetree with no thorn, To prick the fingers of a child Who picks the rose in mercy mild. A deep red rose with petals sweet A heart of gold, but life is fleet. So like our life this rose was born And from us by dark death is torn. In dewy glen this rose bud grows- The world flies on and no one knows. PART TVVO When high the sun has climbed at noon We see our rose in fullest bloom, Its golden heart held to the skies To feel the sun, before it dies. Its perfume wafted in the air, The bee comes for its fragrance rare. The sky smiles on its heart of gold, Still waiting for the sun to hold. The sun is moving toward the west, And now our rose is at its best. A lovely, half-blown rose, Tossed by every breeze that blows, To carry far its soft scent sweet And to the world place at its feet The essence of this deep red rose Where in a lonely glen it grows. So in our lives we try to give A thing that in the world will live, So all may know what we have done Before the dark and setting sun PART THREE The sun has gone at eventide, And too our deep red rose has died. The ground is spread with petals rare, But perfume lingers in the air. And there within its heart of clay A glittering piece of gold doth lay. To show our rose does hold the sun And too a lifelong wish is won. And in the darkness of the night That bit of golden sun is bright And leads the way and seems to speak To those who for lost pleasures seek. And so today one sends a rose In symbol of a love that grows. This lovely rose has done its part Within this world of doubt and dark. So we should try to do a deed, A thing that all the world will need, So when our time to go has come Our work is great, our fame is won. By HENRY F. AKIN. JAMES F.

L,s..,., X Six Q -Q -ASSY f LERBEB Greater Than Emeralds or Gold Through all the World we wandered And saw the castles of kings, We walked in the fairy gardens That were full of beautiful things. We savv the African diamonds, And also the emeralds of Spaing We handled the gold of the Persians, But turned ourselves homeward again. For the friends we made at dear Commerce Are greater than diamonds or goldg And the lessons of life we have learned there Will never, never grow old. What good are castles and gardens? They only bring tears to the eye, But the love We have gained for dear Commerce Will stay with us until We die.

The night owl from the woody gloom ls hooting to the gloating moon On high. The wind begins to sigh As it whisks through the dusky sky With the plaintive moan Of an old violin's tone. The frog's harsh notes From the chilly marsh floats With a weary drowsiness That fans the air to wakefulness The lofty fir murmurs low Like the water swishing past the bow Of a drifting boat, calm As a Biblical psalm. Sad songs of the night From spirits hidden from sight. How to Be Successful in High School 1. Dress well. Your wardrobe should consist of a collegiate cut suit, numerous sweaters of various designs and colors, loud socks, blushing ties, a dilapidated hat and an attractive pin. CThe gals do like pretty pins-pearls preferred., 2. Own and employ the following accessories: A car or two, preferably a La Salle, Packard or some other ordinary make, a mangey dog, cigarette lighter Qprefer- ably one that won,t lightj, wrist watch, golf clubs and lots of spending money. With these little attractions, they can't resist you, boys. 3. Go to The Oasis every Friday night. Swagger the length of the room with hat on and tolerant gleam in eye. Dance every third dance with the woman , and try and impress people with your popularity, by saying to other fellows less breezy, in a loud voice, UI'll give you the ninth or tenth dance. Which do you want ? Look superior. Scratch your matches on the furniture and do anything else that will mark you as being Hdifferentu. 4. Call your teachers old gent or old lady Cbut not to their facesj. If you can crib an exam, do so. It's a huge joke on everyone, including yourself. 5. Rough-house the girls in the halls. Slap them, pull their hair, trip them or kick them in the shins. Best of all, display their mash notes to everyone you meet and at every opportunity read aloud the daily circular love letter. 6. Skip often. Get your car, get a load of fellows, and drive around town all day. What if you do get kicked out? The talk about you will more than repay you. Make it a point to get kicked out once every month. It adds a lot to your reputation. 7. In short, be a devil-may-care, don't-give-a-darn, honest-to-gosh Don Juan. Then you are acknowledged by all to be a successful high school man. Tfwenty-eight V-' ' 1 1 Y W v f f - -- -ff. - T , sie 4 AT L A Poison Bottle FIRST PRIZE STORY By MILLARD CHUNG fAuthor's Note: This is a Chinese story rather than an English story. In a Chinese story, you should not be surprised at the custom of marriage in China. It 1S a tragic story telling how the new and the old ways of marriage conflict.j lVIurder! cried the voice that came from the room to which the bride and the bridegroom had retired that night about ten o'clock. When the party heard the dis- tressed call they rushed from their banquet to see what was happening. The bride lay dead on her bed in the wedding dress. The bridegroom, Yuen Joon, was about twenty-four years old. He was noted among social groups as one of the new men of China because of his new thoughts and excellent education. He had studied five years in America and had received a doctor's degree. In spite of his new ideas of mar- riage, his parents were still among the conservative people, they wanted their son to be married according to their ancient custom, the blind marriagen. Before Yuen Joon came home, his parents had selected to be his future wife a girl whom Yuen Joon had never met. When Yuen Joon heard the plan he started a drastic quarrel with his father. Being a conservative man, his father did not realize how different are the ideas of the young men of today, so he held to his ideas. Soon Yuen Ioon found out that it was no use to oppose his father, and everything was arranged for the wedding. Several evenings later, around the hour of seven, a youthful girl dressed in the American style of a college student walked slowly toward the park. The girl sat alone under a portico. Her face was pale and her eyebrows knitted. Once in a while she sighed. Then she took out a note from her purse and read: Meet me tonight at half past seven in the park. We are going to settle our problems, and perhaps it will be our last meeting. She then put the note back into the purse and looked at her watch, it was eight. She sadly whispered to herself, 'fWhy, it is half an hour past the time! Did he forget ?', Expectantly she gazed at the gate until suddenly a young man dressed in American clothes appeared. rUnder the portico they had a long conversation. lily sweetheart, I have treated you wrong, wrong, whispered the young man tearfully. UI know all about it now, dear, but how can we help it in such a conventional family? Our love is ruined and our happiness is over. But, my love, every one of us has a second hope for happiness. The best thing for us to do now is to go our separate ways and forget all about our love,', said the girl in a calm tone, trying to convince him. 'fWhat do you say, dear? Don't you love me any more? But don't you remember what we promised that other night in America? The girl, thinking of her happy romance, suddenly wept. At last she replied, Hlyly beloved, the time of last year is apart from the present. My love is yours and will be forever. I do not blame you for treating ine wrongly, but I do blame myself for being a mischievous woman. From now on I shall remember you as my best friend. Why be married? Suppose we are married, something might happen to cause more bitternessf, HThank you for your advice and forgiveness, my sweetheart. Iyll always be your best friend, said the young man. K'It's twelve o'clock now. VVe must part. Good luckf, i'Good night, dearest. Good luck. The girl, Bing iyfoy, and Yuen Ioon had become friends five years earlier in America. Each day they had been drawn closer and closer together by the irresistible Twenty-nine - .U qs? l?, and common force of love. Both attended the same university, but Bing lVIoy was graduated half a year earlier than Yuen Joon. The night before she left for China, she promised to marry Yuen Joon as soon as he should arrive in China. The long conference in the park was the conclusion of their romance. After they had separated in the park that night, they often saw much of each other, but neither of them talked again of their old affair. The night of the wedding, which Yuen Ioon's father had planned, came. Guests from every part of the country came to attend the ceremony. Yuen Joon didn't expect Bing lX'Ioy to come because he thought that no woman would like to see her sweetheart marry another lady, but here she came, dressed up beautifully as if she were the bride. With a smiling face, she congratulated him. At this moment, Yuen ,foon felt most unhappy because the attractive lady confronting him was not his any more. On second thought, he surmised that their love was not real. If it were real, Why should she be here tonight with smiles instead of frowns? Yuen Joon had this in his mindg he tried to forget all their past and to enjoy his glorious night. But as has been said, on this wedding night at about ten o'clock the bride was poisoned. This mystery disturbed the whole party. Among the group, Bing Moy stood weeping. Yuen Joon might have known the facts of this murder, but he would tell nobody. Next day some detectives and court officers came up to the house to investigate the murdered body and to question the whole family. No results were obtained. They just imprisoned some of the housemaids and servants. After ques- tioning them two or three days Without finding any proof of their guilt, judges freed them. This mysterious case was left unsettled and set aside. One year later memory of it had disappeared like a bit of summer cloud. After the long and bitter separation, Yuen Ioon and Bing Moy renewed their romance, and were planning to marry. Yuen Joonls father dared not interfere with his son's second marriage, so he had to let Yuen Ioon make his own choice. This was what is called the free marriage . The night when Bing Moy married Yuen -Ioon, there were more and more people who came to see this new-way wedding. At seven o'clock, the ceremony was over and all the guests were still at the party. - Being weary, the new couple took a walk in the park where they had met last year. My love, don't you remember? This is the place where we separated that other night. Now we shall live and be happy foreverf' said Yuen Joon. Don't be over-confident about our happiness, my dear. Mischief always comes in secret,', explained his wife. About ten o'clock the party was over, and the new couple retired. Another poisonedll' Was shouted. The whole family rushed to the room and saw Bing Moy dead in her wedding dress. The same murderer must have committed both murders. This time, Yuen Joon held his dead wife in his arms and cried, 'fBing Moy! Bing Moy, my lovely' I have the proof in this case! shouted one of the maids who had found a poison bottle and a letter beside the dead. Still half of the poison remained in the bottle. The letter was addressed: To my husband, Yuen Joon, from Bing Mioyf' Yuen Joon opened the letter and read: My Dear Husband: When you read my letter, I shall not be your Wife any more, but your convicted person. What I want to let you know now is that I was the murderer of your first wife. You know that nobody could ever take your love from me nor mine from you. Don't you know that there are only two things that are worth while in this world? They are love and life. Love comes first, and life second. If my love is in danger, I will risk my life to save it. N Thirty - ' , When I received your note that other day, I knew that my love was being robbed. Yes, it had been robbed. I decided to kill her, but the pistol was difficult for me to handleg therefore I poisoned her at the banquet. Now, I have won my love back. My work is done, but I must pay. I deserved the devil fruit because I sowed the devil seed. You may not forgive me, but I will ask God for a pardon. Good-bye, darling, good-bye forever. You must take care of yourself and must not sorrow for me. I Ever yours, BING Mov. After Yuen Joon had read the letter, he thought that it was no use to be alive While his love was dead. Instantly he took the poison bottlel' and drank what re- mained of the poison. The family tried to save him, but it was too late! ' Prize Essay Applesauce By JOSEPHINE ZELLER S I stepped out in the safety zone to board the street car, all the men decorously stepped aside to allow me to get on first. Of course, I need not have said that, for the male of the species are always the last word in courtesy, especially on a street car. I paid my fare and was just about to enter the reception roomu, when the car gave the inevitable jerk, and all my Yamhill onions went tumbling on the floor. Unhesitatingly, all males were on their knees jostling and shoving to see who could pick up these tear-bringers. After they CI mean the onionsj had been replaced in their paper habitation, and I had somewhat regained my equilibrium, I went into the car. Immediately confusion ensued. The entire masculine domain had risen to offer me a seat. Of course, there were none reading newspapers or magazines, or gazing out of the window with unseeing eyes-no, that just isn't done. ' I glanced around with as much nonchalance as I could muster, endeavoring to select the best seat. Each man was waiting in breathless expectancy, hoping that I would bestow upon him the honor of accepting his offer. I finally took one of the seats in the Torrid Zone, for it was a cold December morn, and the occupant's eyes were pleading so ardently that I didn't have the courage to refuse. With a look of undisguised triumph, the accepted knight errant glanced around at his fellowmen and withdrew to the front vestibule. As I was the only one of my sex on the car, I was inclined to feel rather con- spicuous. However, my fears were allayed, for all of the rejected offerers gave their undivided attention either to the Palmolive advertisement, or to their fellow-passen- gers, attire. ---Applesauce.

Groups To gain co-operation among the Sophomore class, to promote interest in all school activities, and to be pep clubs, the third and fourth term clubs were organized. VVith such a goal to drive them on, it is no wonder that Commerce students are progressive and enterprising. Practically all the members are girls. Forty-three - ' t,ED,GER, E 1 I Junior Silver Pencil The plot thickensf' Stories and poetry are written by the Junior Silver Pencilers. The two clubs, O.

The members contribute to the Blotter and to the Ledger Literary Contest. The junior League Top Rofw: Hoglund, lWanagerg Garlick, Mitola and Coach Shields Bottom Rrafw: Kurtz, Worthley, Brajivich, Brado In order to create more interest in basketball among the underclassmen, a Junior league was organized. Anyone under the fifth term was eligible to compete. The Junior league schedule was similar to the Senior league. Although our boys won very few games, they received valuable experience to prepare them for the varsity team next year. Coach Shields deserves credit for taking an apparently green group and developing a hard-fighting, good-passing outfit from them. Forty-foui' - 5 4 LE.DBER, On the Bleachers! By JACK BURLES What is the younger generation coming to? These upstart kids are at it again. Imagine Freshmen-yes, I said Freshmen-organizing pep clubs. Land sakes, I never saw the like! Theylve gone and formed some clubs, not content to sit back and wait until they've outgrown their baby clothes, but they have eagerly rushed in where even Sophomores fear to tread. My goodness gracious, but Freshies treat their Seniors shamefully these.days. These Freshmen are a peppy bunch though. They're not satisfied With supporting school athletics, but they must write for the Blotter, and get mixed into other school activities as Well, and not only that, they're out for sports, too.

From the far-off pines and the sea. I look beyond prairie and plains, I see many a farm and home, I long for the grand old mountains, I long for the dancing foam. I long for the sound of the breakers On a wild and rock-bound shore, When oft' with a friend I wandered Where I'll wander never, nevermore. I've a wild unrest and longing For the ideal life of my dreams, In my ears the song of the pine trees, And the music of mountain streams. The prairie winds sigh lonely, And I long for a friend today, For summer is singing a gay song, But June songs have all died away. The moonlight softly spreads its beam, O'er the stillness of the night, The tinkling of a silver stream Was the only sound or sight. Far to the west a tinkling bell, And a campfire burning low, The sound of the water as it fell, Then on its way did go. As the moon still softly spread its light, Into the distant climes, A night owl made its flight, O'er the primeval pines. Forty-six ig 5 if mga, BASKETBALL SQUAD Foriy-.fffvfn M -'im ' l General Basketball The outlook for the '27-'28 basketball season was rather gloomy for the Green Shirtsn. A new coach-but a very good one-was Arvin Burnett, ex-University of Oregon star. The wandering orphans from sixth and Harrison streets were handicapped by having no floor to practice on. To add to this gloomy outlook, only two veterans returned to the fold. With all these problems confronting Coach Burnett, a fighting Commerce team was turned into the championship race. After many hard battles, the small fighting Commerce team was eliminated from the championship race. However, the Green Shirters came back strong and won the consolation championship. Prospects for a championship team are bright next year, with S. Rotenberg, C. Cleek, H. Scroggins, H. Liebrich, S. Leveton, all lettermen, and D. Mitola, O. Miller, H. Kurtz, B. Garlick and N. Worthley back from the Junior team. Forest O'Connell is one of the exceptional boys at Commerce this term, from whom much is expected. - PERSONNEL SAM ROTENBERG-Captain Red played a stellar game at guard. His accurate passing and splendid dribbling worked the ball into scoring area time after time. He was well up amongst the leaguels leading scorers and was placed on the second all- star team. HAROLD BROWN- Brownie, who played at forward, was one of the hardest men in the league to check because of his excellent footwork and his 'fdead eyeu. He could shoot accurately from any angle of the floor. He also earned a berth on the second all-star team. HARRY SCROGGIN-Harry played forward and did good work of it. He was late in getting started, but once he got his eye, he was a terror to the opposition. CHARLES CLEEK-'fChuck' was noted for his fighting spirit, as well as his good offensive work. He played at forward and was a mountain of strength on the defensive. HAROLD BAKER-Harold was a dependable guard. He was adept at breaking up plays under the basket and at getting the ball as it rebounded from the backboard. HARRY LIEBRICH-- Carrots,' was a reliable guard and could be depended upon at any time. lWuch is expected of him next season. HOWARD WOOLEVER-iiWhltCy'l, showed his ability in the relief role at center. He fitted in the team-work wonderfully well. SAM LEVETON-f'Samie, because of his ability to check, was recruited from the junior players and gave a good account of himself in the few games in which he participated. TED CHARLES- Andy improved rapidly in each game and towards the end of the season, he was playing like a veteran. BILLY DECRISTOFORO--iiBillii was a reserve guard. He was a hard fighter and a close checker. He always gave his men plenty to worry about. Forty-right gl LEPBER, L . Track Track, a sport which is rapidly developing, into one of the major athletics at Commerce, swung under way early this term in the Duniway Hflower gardensu. Because of limited space, the runners were often forced to practice along the Terwil- liger Boulevard. Despite this handicap any many others, our track team rounded rapidly into shape. Captain Ayres broke his old state meet record and set a new one by hurling the javelin 170 feet 3 inches, a mark which few college hurlers can better. The relay team, composed of Lewis, Murphy, Bobbitt and Page, placed second in the Oregon sprint medley relay and fifth in the first heat of the state meet. Les Page, our stocky hurdler, won first in his heat at the state meet, and came in seventh in the finals. Howard Bobbitt came in fourth in the 440 run in his heat at the state meet. He also heaved the shot-put 41 feet consistently in practice, but was unable to do as well in the meets. This was probably due to nervousness, which will wear off, assuring us of points in this event next year. Ernie Bredow did the half-mile in 2:12 this year and is expected to clip several seconds from this mark next spring. Forrest O'Connell, ineligible this year, will be a point getter next spring. He has already broken the new state broad-jump record by more than ten inches. He is also a star in the pole vault, high jump and the hundred-yard dash. Jack Davis did exceptionally well in the sprints and broad-jump. He will be an ace next year. Allen Wilkenson, Walter Gertz, Jim Harper, Lowell Dobson, Alfred Heldobler, Burton O,Mealy, Sammy Leveton, Marvin Killeen, and others who went out for track, all showed the best that was in them. A great deal is expected of them next year to help bring home the bacon . One of the new features of this term's track season was the inter-class track meet. The Seniors took the honors this time and came in first, the Sophomores, Juniors and Freshmen following in hot pursuit. Forty-nine 45. 'fi 55? LEDfEZ 1928 BASEBALL CHAMPS Fifly - X Rag-Q The 1928 Baseball Season The return of seven lettermen made the prospects for a championship bright dur- ing the 1928 season. Coach Shields was handicapped considerably by inclement weather. Barbee,' Berardinelli, two-year letterman, returned to the fold to hold down his job of catcher. The 1927 pitching staff was discarded, Plouff turning outfielder, which seemed to be his natural position. A portside pitching staff was made up of Berle Garlick, a transfer from Kelso High, and 'fRed llfliller, the Sellwood grammar school pitching sensation. The graduation of Johnny Nagel left the first base respon- sibilities to f'Chuck Cleek, who proved to be a very capable man. Billy DeCristo- foro, who covered the Hhot cornerl' during the 1927 season, was shifted to second base to develop a keystone combination, with Harold Brown, shifted to shortstop, who covered the second sack two previous years. Dan Mitola, letterman, and Nicky Brajivich fought it out for third base. Sam Leveton, fleet-footed two-year letter- man, took his job in centerfield without much competition. Bud Riesland, lettermang Louis Caputo, a consistent hitter from Aquinas, and Tony Rogers, a newcomer, matched their ability for right field, with Leonard Plouff strutting his stuff in left. The second string consisted of McCambridge, Woolever, Worthley, Kurtz, Salvi, Rommell, Minnutti, Schlafle, Hutchinson, Dinas, Watkins, and our old stand-by , Nate Isenstein, leading them. Prospects for 1929 are very bright. Harold Brown, Bud Riesland, Louis Caputo and Billy DeCristoforo will be the ones missing. The greatest loss will be felt around the middle bag, but someone will no doubt be discovered who can take care of the keystone territory. FIRST GARIE-BENSON 2, COBUWERCE 9 With memories of past defeats still lingering in their minds, a fighting Stenog team was turned loose on the cocky Tech team at the Benson field. When the dust of the first inning had cleared, the evidence of the first Commerce baseball victory in three years appeared on the horizon. Victory was assured by the masterly pitching of Berle Garlick, who had the Tech men eating out of his hands. Eighteen took the well known three swings-eight of them came in a row. The steady catching of Berardinelli, Garlickls three timely hits and Plouff's triple were the highlights of the game. SECOND GANIE-ROOSEVELT 2, CONINIERCE 6 One victory in the bag, a little over-confident, the Commerce team met the bril- liant fielding Teddies at St. Johns. In the first inning the game looked like a walk-away for Commerce. DeCristoforo tripled on the first ball pitched and Brown brought him in with a double to right. That was all Commerce managed to score in the first inning after a wonderful start. 'fRed 1VIiller pitched wonderful ball, but through a few misplays, Roosevelt managed to score two runs. With defeat staring them in the face, the Stenogs came out of it and scored a run in the sixth inning. In the eighth inning the game was packed on Mice!! when four runs crossed the platter, due to some timely hitting. Red', Miller pitched a beautiful game, allowing but four hits. Billy DeCristoforo crashed out three hits and also fielded brilliantly in the Hpinchesn. Tony Rogers did some exceptional playing. THIRD GAME-JEFFERSON 2, COMMERCE 4 Jefferson and Commerce now stood at the top of the league, with two victories and no defeats. A victory meant a clearer path to the championship. Consecutive hits by Garlick, DeCristoforo, Brown and Cleekls double netted the Green Shirts three runs in the sixth inning. Jeff retaliated with two through a few misplays. Another was added to make victory certain. f'Chuck,' Cleek featured with a sensa- tional barehand catch. He also poked out two hits, as did Harold Brown. Fifty-one . 1 if FOURTH GAME-GRANT 3, COMMERCE 4 C11 INNINGSD The Stenographers took the Generals into camp after battling eleven hectic innings for their fourth straight victory. The local boys took an early lead by pushing three runs across in the third. With the thought that victory was practically assured, the Commerce nine performed lifelessly behind the wonderful pitching of Red Miller. Grant got a run inthe sixth and chased two more across in the ninth to tie the score. In the eleventh, with men on second and third, Nicky,' Brajivich pulled the hero act by crashing a single to left to score the winning run. Brajivich's two hits and Riesland's fielding were outstanding. FIFTH GAME-LINCOLN 6, COMMERCE 3 Twenty-second and Powell was the scene of the battle between the friendly enemies -Lincoln and Commerce. Here our boys ' met their first defeat of the season. Victory seemed certain-score 3 to 1-and Garlick working like a Hmillionul That fatal eighth inning, which brings the creeps,' to the writer, will never be for- gotten. One hit and four errors presented the Red Shirts with an unearned victory. Caputo, with two hits, and Mitola performed well on third. SIXTH GAME-WASHINGTON 3, COIVIMERCE 11 Slowly but surely the Stenogs pounded out victory over the Colonials. With the Lincoln defeat still fresh in mind, the wrecking crew did not stop at three runs, but continued to cinch the victory. Sammy Leveton's hitting and fielding drew the applause of the spectators. CHAMPIONSHIP GAME-FRANKLIN 1, COMMERCE ll With Franklin the only obstacle to that long waited for dream-a championship- to come true, a determined Commerce team pranced out on the Quaker field. A bunting orgy enabled the first three men to get in. Then our Berleu crashed out a long triple that took the wind out of the Franklin sails , as Coach Shields said. The heavy-hitting Green Shirtersn continued their onslaught throughout the game. Franklin scored their lone tally in the fourth. This game brought out the real championship calibre of the Commerce team. The catching of Berardinelli, the pitching and hitting of Garlick, the sensational field- ing of Cleek, the steady playing of DeCristoforo, the hitting of Brown, the fast field- ing by Brajivich and the brilliant catching and throwing of the outfielders-Leveton, Plouff, Rogers, Caputo and Riesland, Red Miller's timely pinch hit and Dan Mitola's splendid playing at third were features of the game. COACH GENE SHIELDS We have a champion team, a champion manager, and last but not least, a champion coach, Gene Shields. Coach Shields deserves every bit of the glory a coach of a championship team should receive, and more! He kept the team together when things looked gloomy and encouraged them even in the face of defeat. More championship teams will undoubt- edly come from the coaching of Gene Shields. IWANAGER JOHN HOGLUND A champion manager for a champion team, that's Hjohnnyu Hoglund. A manager isn't given much credit, but the baseball boys think so much of him that they are going to ask lVIr. Elton to give him a letter for his work. Spring Football In the early part of hlarch and the latter part of May the football boys were out for spring practice . Through the able tutoring of Coaches Shields and Burnett, the squad went through, what might be called, preliminary drill to their regular prac- tice in the fall. There was no scrimmage, but they worked hard on fundamental drills and plays. These practice sessions served to uncover several new lights for next year's team.

Science THE KEY TO EDUCATION Just as science has unlocked new doors for the industries, vastly enlarging their field and improving their products, so it has opened up new interests in education, excited keener and more definite incentives to study, and established more vital contacts with life. THE MOTIVE POWER OF PROGRESS In the higher education of today, the motive power of progress, like that in the business and professional world, is the scientific spirit. This spirit, in the college laboratory and classroom, is training the leaders of the industrial and scientific world. At Oregon State the usual broad curricula of the land-grant colleges, animated by the scientific spirit, include the following schools: Agriculture Home Economics Chemical Engineering Military Science Commerce Mi.ues Engineering Pharmacy Forestry Vocational Education The School of Basic Arts and Sciences, Industrial Journalism, Library Practice, Physical Educa- tion, and Music afford general and specialized training.
