WRESTLERS TO MEET
OREGON SATURDAY

The auditorium is to be the scene
of a real wrestling match Saturday
night, when the grapplers from
o. A. G. meet the Cougars in five
bouts. Indications are that the meet
will be a fast one, as the Cougars
are out to avenge their defeat at Sc
attic.
Although defeated, the wrestling
team returned home in good condi-
ton and confident of winning from
the Beaver grapplers Saturday. All
four of the decisions lost to the Sun
Dodgers were very close and only
finally settled after consultation
with the timers. In all cases it was
only a matter of seconds and in one
case three minutes overtime was
necessary to settle a tie.
Beavers Winners From U. of w.
Very little time was spent on the
mat, the grapplers for the most part
locking horns and playing safe.
Tromanhauser, the last to go on the
mat, obeyed instructions and went
in for a fall, disregarding the dan
ger of being thrown himself, with
the result that he slipped into head
chancery and lost on a fall.
The Beavers have already defeat
ed Washington u and according to
the dope should win Saturday, but
the dope is easily upset in the wrest-
ling game. The o. A. G. men will
arrive Friday and will attempt to
win the right to go to California as
the Northwest champions.
Captain Logan made a good show
ing at Seattle and will probably
again represent the Cougars when
they take the mat Saturday night.
Hanson and Gray are the 9TH
er possibilities and both are very
capable wrestlers.
Pearson Going Strong
Ewing will probably again go on
at the 135-pound weight as Throop,
the other man, is too far above
weight, Boggs is first choice at
145 and is expected to repre-
sent the Cougars at that weight, al
though Peason may wrestle at 145
instead Of at 1853.
The meet will begin promptly at
S:15. Students tickets will admit.

hey not only attended lectures nut
took part In all branches of university
life: they participated In all the cele-
brations and festivities, and were
members of the various clubs and stu
dent organizations. in which they were
on footing of perfect equality with
the men, and frequently were elected
to various official positions. After they
were graduated from one Of the sew
eRal high schools or from the univer-
slty, there were many branches of
work open TO them.
"Having thus such an excellent foun-
dalton TO build upon, Il is small won
der that the woman's movement soon
found many active supporters. In
1863 the diet had accorded the mu-
nlcipal vote TO women taxpayers living
In the country. and in 1872 to women
living In the towns, all of whom were
also given the right TO be elected men,
bers of certain local self-governing
bodies. In 1900 the women social dem.
ocrats included the suffrage In their
program. but the special activity for
the suffrage began only I'm the year
1904, although in 1897 n petition had
been officially presented to the diet
at the request of the Finnish Wom-
ans association
1.-THE reason why so little was done
in direct furtherance of the cause of
woman suffrage between the years
1897 and 1904 is that just at that time
Finland was passing through severe
political crisis.
after the outbreak of the October
revolution In Russia (1905), a sympa-
thetic strike was declared In Finland
and several of the members of the CEN
trail committee elected by a mass
meeting to manage the details of the
strike were women.
"The first action taken by the COM
mittee was to close all the liquor
shops, saloons and barrooms, and to
organize volunteer police force to
keep order. After the second day the
markets were reopened and the strik-
ers were not allowed to cut off the wa
ter supply. In short, the strike was
managed in most orderly and sys-
tematic way, and no outrages Of any
sort were committed"

FINLAND: WHERE WOMEN
WON VOTE BY HELPING
SETTLE A STRIKE

Victory for woman suffrage In the
United States adds interest TO the ex-
periences of Finland, where women
won the franchise by their part In qui-
citing labor troubles similar TO those
which now assail the United States.
Incidentally, Finland was one Of the
first portions Of the old Russian EN-
pire to set up a constitutional govern
ment.
The advent and progress Of suffrage
in Finland is described in a com.nuni-
cation TO the National Geographic so
clety by Baroness Aletta Korff as fol-
lows:
''From an educational point OF view
the women Of Finland have been very
fortunate. as there are many excellent
schools for girls and a number OF CO.
educational schools throughout the
country which prepare students for
the university examinations. Girls
were admitted 10 the university I'm
1878. and. until the war interviewed,
