week in May. Magee says that it has al
ways been the custom to play off tie
| games during the ear V part OF April, be-
| fore the spring ''exes" at Berkeley begin,
but on account of the desire of Stanford to
enter Freeman in both the tennis tourney
and the baseball games they have refused

The University of California "exes"
begin on April 26. while those at Stanford

of the Berkeley "exes," and on this ac-
count Magee says he and Mein have q
vigorous complaint coming.
