SHORT TRIPS FOR

PORTLAND. Feb. 3.-In the opinion
of President p. L. V Campbell, OF the
University of Oregon. it is quite likely
that the athletic counsel, consisting OF
three members of the faculty. three
graduates. and three students. will pass
a rule permitting not more than three
days absence from the university al
any one time for athletic trips
The meaning of this is while the an
nual football trip to California will not
be entirely d onc away with. but one
game would be played under such a
regulation. 1t is also possible that
arrangements win be made by which
the football team win alternate. one
