campus near Lausanne Hall by the
Y. w. C.. A. girls with the usual force

preparing for the game.
At 1910 clock, if arrangements now
under way are completed, Willamette 3

second team of the Chemawa Indian
Training school. Chemawa has
strong second team and if the William
ette secClnd squad continues to i'm
prove good contest is expected.
AT l:15 will come the crowninp of
the May Queen. The ceremony will
take place under the central arch of
the north entrance to Eaton Hall. The
queens procession will form at the
Science Building and march east across
the campus to the front of Eaton Hall
then south to steps where the throne
will be located and the ceremony of
crowning the queen will take place.
Following the crowning of the queen
will occur the winding May pole and
series of folk dances given by the
college women on the lawn in front of
the queens throne. The May pole
dance and folk dances are being pre-
pared under the instruction of Miss
Ida B. Davis who has charge of the
gymnasium work of the college women.
At 3 O'Clock the first big athletic
event of the program will take place,
Willamette and Chemawa contesting in
a field and track meet Both schools
are placing special emphasis on track
work this year and very interesting
and close meet is expected to result.
At S:l5 Friday evening the Junior
Play, the Canterburg Pilgrims, rem
dered according to a modern version
under the direction of Professor Wal
lace MacMurray will be presented at
the Grand Opera House.
The program for Saturday will open
with hours being spent in improving
the campus. All male members of the
student body, faculty, and all other
men who happen to stroll on to the
campus during this period will be made
to help improve the appearance of the
grounds
Following the campus improvement
work will come the interclass tennis
tournament. There will be singles and
doubles for both men and women with
the four classes of the college of lib
eral arts competing.
At / O'Clock the university dinner

lawn and partaking of the noon meal.
| At 2:3O Saturday afternoon will come
the biggest athletic feature on the
program, a baseball game between
Willamette University and the Uni
versity of Oregon. OF the ability of
the Oregon team there is no question
and DR.. Sweetland, Willamette's s crafty
athletic mentor is laying awake nights
| devising plans for their defeat in this
I big contest.
Following the baseball game the four
academy classes will compete in a tub
race down the mill stream. There are
several facts which promise to make
this event interesting, among them the
large number of edies that are found
down the entire course of the race and
the rather crooked path the tubs will
have to travel.
The tub race over the biggest inter
class contest of the year will be in
order, the Sophomore-F Freshmen tug-of-
war across the mill race. The two
lower classes will concentrate their eff.
forts on this event and it goes with
out saying that the keenest rivalry will
I prevail.
At s O'Clock in the evening the
! Junior Prom will take place and nm
