Aside from who won, the outstand-

strategy used by one team was match

Oregon Misses Chance.
In the last quarter of play Oregon 1
lost her chance to win when Maner-
ude failed TO kick a field goal from |
the 2S yard line. 1t was close, but not |
quite. and saved the day for Harvard.
The game ended with Oregon win

yard line. As the finishing whistle
blew Horween had been downed a
foot from touchdown.
Steers, Jacobbcrger. Huntington
and Manerude were the stars of the
Oregon aggregation. although the sup

The French members of the commission. the war department has been advised. will be chosen soon.
 The French government in the opin- ion of; state and war department of ficials. will be bound by the agreement to permit the return of the bodies buried in France. although up to this time disinterment in the battle zone has been refused.
 Ralph Hays, assistant to the secre- tary of war. will sail for Frence soon to arrange for the return of bodies in-. tered in the rear areas. He also will inspect proposed sites for Americap fields Of honor, where the bodies of soldiers. whose nearest of kin desire retention overseas, will be given a permanent place of rest.
