been attending the meeting of the
managers of conference athletics for
the past several days. He reports the
managers meeting to have been as
full of wrangling as usual and several
1914 contests in which Idaho figures
The big change on Idahos football
schedule is that in the game with
Washington State College. For the
past four years at least the Idaho-W.
S. G. contest has marked the open
ing of the season for both institutions,
being held each year about the middle
Of October. This game will not be
called next fall until November Z and
will be the third conference game on
Idahos list.
The game with the University of Ore
gon will be the only conference con-
test in which the Idaho team will be
be seen On the home field. The Whit
man game at Walla Walla and the
game with the University of Wash
at Seattle.
The Idaho Washington game has
been set for October II though it is
possible, from present indications,
that the contest may never materialize.
The two managements have not come
together on the matter of guarantees
and Washington's answer to Manager
Larson's terms will not be given be-
fore the last of this week.
Though opposed by both Manager
Larson and Coach Bender the estab-
lishment of a double basketball league
formed of Idaho, w. S. c. and Whit
man in the east and Washington, Ore
gon and O. A. G. west of the noun
tains went on record with a favorable
game which will decide the champion
ship between the east and the west
will be played in eastern territory.
Conference baseball will again be
played in two leagues as it was last
spring. The east and west champion
ship game will be played west of
the mountains. Through the double !
league it is thought that great sa-
wing in expense can be made
Both tennis and cross-country have
been added to conference athletics and
meets in these branches have been |
the tennis meet to be held
On May 20 and 23 at Eugene and the |
cross-country meet to be held at Cor
wallis on November Z. In each of |
these meets three men will enter from
each institution. The matter of pre-
senting letters to members of the ten
mis- and cross-country teams that en-
ter the conference meets will be taken
up with the student athletic board by
Manager Larson within the next few
days.
Steps were taken at the managers
meeting to avoid the usual wrangling
between the various institutions over
the choice of officials in football
games. George M. Varnell of Spokane
was chosen official arbitrator and any
disputes which may hereafter arise
in the selection of football officials
will be referred to him for settlement
A certified list of officials was settled
upon and in case the colleges of the
conference fail to agree upon Of
icials at least two weeks prior to each
game, Mr.. Varnell will appoint offic
ais from this list.
