Also depending upon the weather is the horseshoe tournament. The I.W.W.'s will toss the shoes against the Miller girls. And the Independents will battle against the T.N.T.'s tomorrow.
Women in the archery tournament will have to shoot their three rounds by May 11. Each round consists of four ends at 20 yards and four ends at 30 yards. Score cards may be obtained at the office.
Women golfers attention! Each contestant must play a qualifying round of 9 holes. The group will be placed in flights and an elimination tournament played.
Old Man Rain has spoiled the University coaching staff's plans to finish the last two days of spring football practice with hard scrim-mages. Instead, dummy practice will probably be held according to a statement released by Vic Hurt today.

As Hurt expressed it, "If the mud isn't knee deep to a giraffe as it was yesterday, we'll have a scrimage tomorrow. Otherwise, we will have to be content with a dummy scrimage."
