MAN WINS
ORATORICAL CONTEST

Edward Landels of Stanford Uni
versity, in competition with repre-
sentatves from six other western in
situations. won the prize of SIS at
the intercollegiate oratorical con
test, Saturday night, his address be-
ing "A Plea for Sanity in Intercol-
legiate Athletics"
Matt Pearce of the University OF
Montana won second place and a
prize of $25 with his address. Talk
ing Points on the College"
MIR, Landels criticized college ath-
letics of today, saying that we no
longer play for the sheer JOY Of play
ing but more for personal glory and
commercial benefits Men come to
college merely to partake in athletics
and they neglect the broader scope
of college life. Mr. Landels stated
that athletics are not to be discour-
aged but they should not be allowed
to dominate entirely. Athletics
serve two main purposes, first re-
creation and second, constructive. to
build one up physically Hence they
should be limited in accordance with
their purpose.
Mr.. Pearce spoke of the two classes
who come to college, those who go in
for college life and decide not to let
study interfere with their pleasure.
and those who go in for study alone.
He said they are both wrong. There
is happy medium with well-bal-
anced programs for each to follow.
The purpose of the college is to train
men in their ability to help their fell
low men and that the quality of men
that the college turns out is what
counts and not the quantity.
Mr.. Reeid presided as chairman of
the contest and Mr. Brown Schick of
the Moscow Star-Mirror. Mr.. S. F.
Brown, professor of economics at the
University of Idaho and Professor O.
D. Richardson of the English depart
ment of the University of Idaho acted
as judges.
The colleges and their representa-
tives were listed as follows: Stanford
University, Edward Landels; Univer-
sity of Montana, Matt Pearce; Con
2aga University, Milo Manca; College
of Puget Sound, Vincintes Villa
Huerte; Oregon Agricultural College,
William P. Black; Pacific University,
Watt Long, and w S. c., James E.
Lindsey
1t was decided that the next con
test be at o. A. c.. Students inter
ested in oratory and DESTROYS of en-
tering the contest can see Mr. Reeid

u love bright colors." said the Red
maple tree. In the springtime |

"hen my leaves begin to appear they
are red too. Even in the winter my
oud-llke twigs are red.
And while say like bright colors
as you can easily guess red Is my
ravorite color"
don't blame you for liking it so
much,' said Peter Goblin. For If |
want to look very smart and dashlng
ana handsome l tie red scarf around
my waist and feel too fine for any
thing.
IN fact there is going to be a fancy
dress party given by the Fairy Queen
this afternoon and I've half mind
to dress all in red"
WHY don't you go as a Red Maple
tree asked the Red Maple tree.
why that is an idea, and an excel
lent one shouted Peter Goblin throw
ing his cap high in the air and catch
ing 1t on the side of his head as It fell
down again.
Ihat is splendid idea, and do
believe l will do it,"
Yes" said the Red Maple tree ~
think 1t would be a new sort of a
costume. l will give you some of my
red petals and blossoms and you can
decorate yourself with them. Then
you can make a costume look like my
bark"
"A bark doesn't look" said Peter
Goblin. "A bark makes a noise"
"Oh no." said the Red Maple "a
pretty poor old joke for such fine
creature as Peter Goblin. How often
have | heard jokes made up about
the bark of dog
How very, very often have heard
that joke.
But no matter you know what my
bark is I'm sure, and that it is pretty
different from the bark Of a dog.
Then the Red Maple tree contin-
ned, you can make little branches
coming out of your costume. Make
them short as mine are short and have
plenty of these branches for you know
| have plenty Of branches.
Did you ever know why | had
short branches and plenty Of them?"
Il don't believe | ever did know"
said Peter Goblin.
I'D like to hear though" he added.
We'll said the Red Maple tree, Il
can stand up against the old Wind
when he is blowing a gale far better
when my branches are short.
They can't break off as they would
If they were longer and more brittle
and easy to snap"
Il suppose" said Peter Goblin, you
have plenty of branches so in case
you lose some you always have others

because they are short and straight

lowed w. S. c. to triumph, 12-4 The
.ocond melee was more holly con-
tested, the score being 4-S.
In Fridays game w. S. c. started

III the third Few errors were
,,ode in this game, each team being
orodited with but three. Ruley, who
,,virled the entire nine innings for
W 6. c., allowed nine hits, while
,be Cougars gathered twice this num-
her off Sherwood, pitching for the
Missionaries
whitman started out strong in the
second game, but weakened in the
anal stages of the set-to, and allowed
tho winning run to filter across in
the seventh frame. Mcdowell, south
nav twirler for the visitors, had a
stvle that took Barber's tribe several
innings to fathom. He used a slow.
eurye ball almost exclusively, allow
ing the Cougars to hit to the infield-
ers for easy outs.
On the other hand, Cook of w. s.
r. had lots of speed, and famed six
men. Zaepfel made the only error
of the game for the Cougars while
Whitman's representatives booted the
ball nine times.
Second Game Fast
The second game was one of the
speediest played here this season, re-
ouiring only one hour and so minutes
for the full nine innings. Cook toiled
on the mound for the Cougars in a
creditable manner, and fielded his
position perfectly.
W. S. c. broke into the scoring
column first, when Bray and Hanley
each brought in a run in the last of
the fourth frame. In the next inning
Moran smashed out a three-bagger
and went home on an overthrow to
third on the part of the Whitman
pitcher
The only double play of the CON
test was made in the seventh inning
when Roberts stopped a hot one,
npped the runner at second and
Rouse shot it to first base for the
second out. The Cougars made their
last tally in the seventh session when
Bray boosted a high fly over the
fence for two bases and came in on
Beneke's hit.
Cook held the Missionaries score
less until the eighth inning, when
Mcdowell came across for their first
counter on Comrades hit to left field
with two outs against them.

CHAPTER TX.

The sound If pursuit soon died
away. but Erskine kept Firefy at his
best. for he knew that Crooked Light
| ming would be quick and fast on his
trail. He guessed. too. that Crooked
Lightning had already told the tribe
what he had just told the council, and
that he and the prophet had already
made all use of the boys threat to
KahtOo in the Shawnee town. He
knew even that 1t might cost him his
life if lie went back there, and once or
twice he started to turn through the
wilderness and go back to the fort. 1t
was the thought of the white woman
who was to be burned that kept him
going and sent him openly and fear
lessly into the town. He knew from
the sullen looks that met him. from
the fear in the faces of his foster
mother and the white woman who
peered blindly from her lodge, and
from the triumphant leer of the
prophet that his every suspicion was
true. but all the more leisurely did he
swing from his horse. all the mere
haughtily stalk to Kahtoo's tent. And
the old chief looked very grave when
the lad told the story Of the council
and all that he had said and done.
THE people are angry. They say
you are a traitor and a spy. They say
you must die. And l ca mot help you.

strong"

"TOmOrrOw," said the old chief
"they shall hunt. Each shall take his
bow and the same number of arrows
at sunrise and return at shutdown.
The next day they shall do the same
with the rifle. 1t is enough for today"
The first snow fell that night, and
at dawn the two lads started out
each with bow and a dozen arrows.
Erskine's woodcraft had not suffered
and the nights story of the wilderness
was as plain to his keen eyes as a
printed page. For two hours he
tramped swiftly, but never sign of
deer, elk, bear or buffalo
And then an hour later he heard a
snort from a thick copse and the crash
of an unseen body in flight through
the brush, and he Hoped after its
tracks.
Black Wolf came in at sunset with a
bear cub which he had found feeding
apart from It's mother. He was triun-

With bound he leaped through the

and sped away through the village
Some started on foot after him, some
rushed to their ponies. and some sent
arrows and bullets after him. At the
edge of the village the boy gave
loud, clear call and then another as he
ran. Something black sprang snorting
from the edge of the woods with
pointed ears and searching eyes, An
other call came and like the swirlng
