with the high class athletes that have been developed in the past, and who have appeared on the schools "var- sity" teams, but it is believed that inter-class competition will call out more candidates than obtains under the present system, and that this will result in the more general develop ment of athletic material.
 The plan also Is compulsory to a certain extent, as the students will be required to take part in a certain amount of athletic exercise. Broadly. the idea is to have more students com peting on the field and track instead of confining their activities to cheer ing their comrades on while they sit in the stands under the guidance of yell leader" The training will be supervised by the athletic directors with the cooperation of the captains of the various varsity" teams.
 Should the system prove a success and is continued the duties of the San Francisco Athletic League. which has heretofore supervised athletic activi- ties in the city schools, will be great ly reduced, and some believe there will be no further need for its ex- istence because it's functions practi- cally will be assumed by the physical directors who will constitute board.
 What is said to be the worlds big gest fish hatchery is nearing com pletion at Oak creek, near Los Ange- les. This great building, constructed of stone, cement and tile in the Euro pean style of architecture, was built entirely through the money taken in for fishing and hunting licenses.
 The immediate capacity of the plant win call for an output of eight mil lions of fry, an amount far in excess of what has heretofore been allotted to southern California streams. In view, however, of the extraordinary popularity of fishing as sport, pre- cautions have been taken to provide for increasing the capacity to keep pace with the growth of angling.
 Steps have been taken to safeguard the state in the undisputed possession of land and water ample to provide for future extensions. The California fish and game commission has left the naming of the hatchery to the public. which has been asked to send in it's suggestions.

SPORTS Gossip About Events of National Importance and the Persons Who Are in the Head
 Liner Glasses.

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. '. - The early football outlook at the Oregon Agricultural college is not as encour- aging to the students as it might be. Of the twenty men who last season won their letters, only six are ex- pected to return, and of these only two played regularly on last years team.
 Notwithstanding the threatened shortage of material, Assistant Coach Everett May is quoted as being any thing but discouraged, for the reason that he is expecting lot of promis- ing new material from the various schools. which includes players who already have made their mark on the lesser teams.
 Head Coach Pipal will return to col lege on September 1. when the re- gular season commences. In accord ance with the new ruling of the con ference, there will be no preliminary practice.
 The Oregon Aggie's schedule, as far as it has been framed, will allow the freshmen to participate in a major ity of the games. Of the eight con tests scheduled, the games against the University of Washington and the University of Oregon are the only two in which the first year men may not take part.
 The letter men who are expected back are: Captain Abraham, consid- cred one of the all-Northwestern stars; Newman, Bissett, Moist and Dutton. Of the men who are expect ed to return this fall and are con sidered as likely varsity material are Russell and Briggs, promising end rushers, Pierce, Casey and Selph, all of whom played with the second squad.
 The scredule up to the present is made up as follows September 20, Multnomah Athletic Club at Corvallis October 7, Idaho University at Mos COW; October 14, Washington State College at Pullman; October 21, Ne braska University at Portland; Octo. Der 2S, Whitman College at Corvallis November II, University of Oregon at Corvallis, November 25, University of Oregon at Corvallis, and Thanksgiv. ing Day, University of Southern Cali fornia at Los Angeles.
 In the hope of turning out a greater number of proficient athletes, the San Francisco high schools will try the experiment of subordnating inter. school competition to inter-class con, tests. Under the new play of the board of education, each school will have two physical directors, a man and a woman, which will provide training for the girls as well as the boys.

A Pulpit Opportunity.


The pulpit and its representative or,
gans are waking up to the serious sit
uation that cDnfronts Georgia grow
ing out of her lynching record, says
the Atlanta Constitution.
This, with recent emphatic express
ions from ministers here and else
where in the state, is gratifying Nevi
dence of the fact that the pulpit re
alizes the Importance of dealing with
problem which is both directly with
in its province, and in the solution Of
which it can undoubtedly have mark
ed weight and influence.
Founded upon law. the pulpit stands

tiles to make and enforce laws which
will deter those who might perhaps
be reched in no other way.
The press has taken mold OF the
problem along with the pulpit, and
Georgia has been at least partially
aroused to the necessity for action, if
Georgia is to be relieved from this
incubus of anarchy which has blacken-
ed her name and reputation both at
home and abroad.
But Georgia wants, and must have,
more than generaHties. She must
have action that will stop it. It is
going to take thoroughly aroused
and reawakened public sentiment to
get such action!
South Carolina had one lynching
last year, whiie Georgia had eighteen,
lOauin6 oil tic otdtSb. NC NO4uuUin
State was well within its right, under
these circumstances, in asking wheth-
er Georgians are afraid, and in point
ing TO the threatened undermining of
state civilization.
For the help which Georgia needs in
this crisis, she must look to her pulpit
as well as her press. The stirring has
begun; the awakening is at hand. II
these influences will keep at it per-
sistently and determinedly they can
and will do for Georgia needed and
a splendid service. &
