WILLAMETTE NOTES.

The big question that is now bother
ing the students is "Will it rain on
May DayV" Extensive preparations
are being made for every event of the
day and the junior play, which comes
that evening, cannot be postponed so
that every one is very anxious about
the way old Jupe Pluvius behaves the
next few days.
May Day Manager Herman Clark
says that the most of the campus i'm.
provement work will be on the west
end Of the campus. The curbing from
the medical building to Lausanne hall
will be put in AL shape and the lawn
in front Of the college Of music and in
front Of Lausanne hall will be raked
down and the whole sowed to grass.
The freshman girls are planning a
candy booth for May Day.
The track men are working in the
stadium today, the inclemency of the
weather making work on the field i'm.
possible.
The tryouts for the different tennis
teams that were to have occurred this
afternoon have been postponed on ac'
count of the weather. The prospects
for a tennis tournament May Day are
very dubious.
