BOWLING TOURNEY
TO START THURSDAY
Inter-frat Event Is Not Sponsored
By University, Will Afford
Preliminary Practice
The" Inter-fraternity Bowling tour
nament to be held at the Saratoga
Bowling Alley, will get under way
Thursday evening. This tournament
is not sponsored by the University,
and no points are given, but ample
incentive is aroused through the
competition for a prize to be offered
by the management of the Saratoga
Recreation Rooms. It is not yet
known as to just what form this
prize will take, but promise i3 made
of either a "skin," cup, or money.
This tournament, although entire
ly separate, will serve as a prelim
inary to the regular event sponsored
annually by the University, and will
serve as an excellent practice for
those teams entering.
Games will be played every Thurs
day evening, with one-Jialf of the
teams competing at seven o'clock,
and the other half at nine. It is
hoped, with the schedule now ar
ranged, that every competing team
will be enabled to play each other
team twice. Under present plans
it is necessary for teams to enter in
groups of four. To date there are
twelve teams signed Up, with pros
pects for an additional four very
svon.
The following fraternities have al
ready entered teams: Xi Psi Phi;
Sigma Phi Epsilon; Delta Upsilon;
Theta Xi; Pi Kappa Phi; Farm

Missouri Valley
Stillwater, Okla., Jan. 10. Work
nn the new Oklahoma A. and M. col
lege cinder track which will be one
of the best in the Missouri vauey
conference, is to start within a few
days, according to E. C. Gallagher,
director of athletics. Two concrete
tennis courts are also to be con
structed at once. It is estimated
that the track will cost about ?9,500,
and the tennis courts $1,500.
"Nothinz will be spared to make
the cinder track one of the best it
is possible to obtain," Mr. Gallagher
declared. "Every attention will be
given to proper drainage. We plan
to drain the sub soil and provide
storm sewers to carry off the excess
water. Such a plan will help drain
the varsity football field."
The 220 yard straightaway in
front of the south stands will be 29
feet wide, while the curves and north
side of the track will be 21 feet
wide. A cement curb is to be con
structed all around the track.
' The tennis courts will be of regu
lation size, each 30 feet wide by 110
feet lone. Only the best of mate
rials are to be used on both the
track and tennis courts, Mr. Galla
gher said.
Meeker, head of the department, the
students in these shops get a much
better training by working on arti.
cles for specific commercial use ra
ther than on standard laboratory
exercises.
Many of the articles made for the
college, such as the brass key holders
are of a special character and con
sequently could not be purchased,
readily on the market, ihis work
together with much of the installa
tion and repair of equipment, is done
by the mechanical engineering de
partment. Individuals from all parts
of the state send in pieces of machin
ery to be duplicated or repaired, and
advanced students get the benefit of
oing this practical work, with the
aid of capable supervision.
Students at Indiana have been
urged to see the family physician to
be vaccinated. An epidemic mav fc
prevented by students doing their

epidemics usually break out after

CLEANERS AN'D DYERS
THERE is a forgotten chapter in
the life of Columbus which in hs
way had aa much to do with the dis
covery of America as the voyage Itself.
We refer to the years spent in prepara
tion before he set sail years filled with
painstaking study, planning his voyage
with the aid of what crude maps and
geographical data he could procure.
In telephony, too, the success of each
new development depends on the years
of intensive research and careful planning
that precede actual construction. 3ell
telephone men are continually mapping
out the course of this great industry for
years to come.
The true telephone pioneer is he who
brings vision and initiative to his work
as supervisor, engineer or executive
and who backs this up with the pains
taking study needed to crystallize the
dream into the reality.
