Matthews to Secure Data
About Trained W. U. Alumni

Coach r. l.. Mathews, of Willamette
university, is very desirous sthat all
alumni of the institution respond to the
cooperation asked for by the Intereol-
legiate Intelligence Bureau, which is
working with the United States govern
ment. Mr.. Mathews is adjutant for
Willamette and is endeavoring to find
out the character Of the special training
possessed by any alumnus, that would
be of help to the nation. To accomplish
this blanks are being sent out to large
number of alumni, which they are re
quested to fill out and return. Those
who do not receive a blank this week
are asked to write for one.
Should serious crisis arise, there
would be needed by the country a vast
army of men and women, not only for
the purpose Of carrying on the actual
fighting, but also for the performance
of many and varied duties in eonnee-
tion with the equipping and feeding Of
the army, the building Of Notifications,
the manufacture of munitions, the op-
Grafton of telegraph, telephone and rail
road lines, the maintenance Of hospital
service, the administration of any con
quered territory and various other in
despensable services, In fact there will
be need for author as well as the expert
motorcyclist.

Stated by Manager Miller

Although the theme and events that
have characterized May Day festivities
Of former years, viii be lacking, to a
degree, in this season 3 celebration. an
attractive program has been prepared.
AS is now planned the fete will be an
old-time English May Day, made pos
sible by using the natural setting cast
of the gymnasium.
Paul Miller, the manager, has been
working hard for the past three weeks
planning the best possible program. The
noted deviation from the general Nav
Day events was made necessary by so
many Of the students joining the army.
An intercollegiate track meet and base
ball game would have been scheduled.
The following plans, in general def
mite are announced by Mr.. Miller. The
iollity win begin with a student body
hike across the river Thursday even
ing at 5 p m. The regular class work
OF Friday morning will be in order, but
in the afternoon there will be an inter
class tennis tournament, track meet and
baseball game. Since there is no junior

DRAFT WOULDTAKE 2l4
FROM BALL LEAGUES
johnson Thinks Season Would
Be About Over Before They
Would Be Called
BY H. @. Hamilton.

UNITED Press staff correspondent
New York, April O.-Baseball-To
use the words Of Ban Johnson-will be
honored and glorified by a war call to
its young men who are eligible to mill
tary service, according to present plans
Of the war department. Some one asked
Ban if baseball would suffer"
through selective cOnseription and Ban
instantly resented the word.
Approximately PA men in both big
leagues viii be drafted IL the call goes
out before the end of the season. One
hundred and thirteen of these will como
from the American league and l0l from
Governor Tener's circuit.
The fact that the American league
clubs, for the most part, are being drill
ed constantly will have little effect, for
what they are learning in baseball drill
ing camps would be only beginning to
the instructions they would receive in a
Zig army encempment. The only hope
for respite seems to lie in the fact
that mobilization at the camps probably
would not begin until September, when
the baseball season is rapidly drawing
near the end. A month might be grant
ed the men to finish and then report.
The world s series might suffer badly.
Among the stars of the game who are
believed to bo eligible for the call are
Bennio Kauff of the Giants, Howard
Ehmke of the Detroit Tigers, Dave
Davenport and Allen Sothoron of the
Browns, Joe Judge and Harry Harper of
the Senators, Jesse Barnes, Walter Ma
ranville, Arthur Nehl and Bill James of
the Braves, Leon Cadore of the Dodg-
ers, Reuther ana Workman of the Cubs,
Queto, Kopf, Mitchell, Rousch and
Sanders of the Reds, Walter Holke,
