SCOPE Of COLLEGE
/ BROAD AND LIBERAL

the agricultural college here is val
ued at $5,000,000 on a conservative

functions of the college would mean
the transfer of this property from
Eastern Washington.

a member of the last state legis
lature from this district, was pres
ent at the meeting and stated that

attempt will he made' at the next ses
sion of the legislature to reduce the
college to purely an agricultural in
stitution, and urged the people 10
leave no stone unturned to resist
such action. He advised a campaign
ol education to acquaint the people
of the stale' with he' laws which gov
ern the college, to prove that the
college has not exceeded the' scope as
outlined by these laws.

tion carried to the effect that a com
mittee of three be appointed to draft

JOHN It. RENDER
A TENNIS PHENOM
Popular W. S. C. Coach Wins Singles
Championship in Tournament
John R. Bender, football and
baseball star and coach, has demon
strated his ability as an all around
athlete' by winning the' singles in the
summer school tennis tournament, In
the finals .Monday morning be de
feated Humphries in straight sets
0-4. •;::. Humphries was a member
of the championship team of the Uni
versity of Missouri anil is an experi
enced and skillful player. In the
finals both men played a careful
game, as is shown by the fact that
neither one served a double fault
during the match.
There were frequent protracted
rallies but Pender was the steadier
and won many points by his accurate
lobs to the back line after drawing
his opponent to-the net. In the sec
ond set Bender had the' score 5-love.
but Humphries took a brace and won
three straight mimes.
Bender's showing is remarkable in
that he did not take up tennis till
three years ago. Despite the handi
cap of his extra years and weight, he
is faster on his feel and covers more
ground than most of the younger ex
ponents of the game and his coolness
and dogged fighting for every point
have been important factors in win
ning this tournament.
A CORRECTION
Editor Pullman Herald:
Dear Sir:ln your issue of last
week a misstatement occurs regard
ing a certain experiment relating to
wheat smut. You state "that clean,
treated wheat was planted In clean
soil and produced a 98 per cent clean
crop, while smutted and untreated
wheat was planted in Infected soil
and produced a smutty crop.
This might very well be true, but
it would lack significance.
The statement should read about
as follows: Very smutty untreated
wheat was planted in clean soil and
produced a 98 per cent clean crop,
while clean treated wheat was plant
ed on the same day in soil which had
been Infected with smut five days
prior to planting, produced a 50 per
cent smutty crop.
The department does not wish to
attach particular Importance on this
experiment until further results of
investigations have- been obtained.
