The OAC baseball nine returned Sun
day from Eugene, where they were de-
feated Saturday afternoon by the U. ofO.
nine in score of 9 to 8. The field a.
Eugene was in very bad shape for play
ing, and the OAC men feel confident that
in the return game which will be played
in this city in the course OF couple of
weeks they will make a far different
showing. Those who played the game
tor OAC, Saturday, we're: Pitcher, Loom
/ ey; catcher. Wolfe; 1st base, Beatty End
base, Swami; 3rd base, Jones (captain);
short stop, Kruse; lett field, Bilyeu;
center field, Moore; right field, Todd;
Subs, Murray and Pendergrass. M. NJ.
Long of this city oficiated as umpire,
and Coach McReynolds of course accom-
panied his men on the trip.
Albany has taken up the matter nt
cleaning up and beautifying the cemetery
stthat place, and the example is one
that should be followed by Corvallis and
good many other towns throughout the
Valley. The citizens of that city are to
engage a man to clean the cemetery
thoroughly and that is what is needed i q
our own Crystal Lake aud other silent
cities. To have the poison oak and other
weeds and grass moved down in our
cemeteries several times during the COM
ing summer would be but small item
OF expense, and that it should by all
means be done jnst before Memorial day
cannot be denied. A little exhibition of
public spirit along this line would GER
tainly be appreciated generally, to say
nothing of showing more respect for
those who are sleeping in these neglected
grounds.
