SCHOOL FIGHTS TO END rVTERSCHOLASTIO COMMITTKK PTTS B.X ON ROVTDTISM. Heeohitlon Is Adopted to Permit Vic torious! Athletes to Celebrate In Peace Promises) Made. Black eyes, bruised limbs, torn pen nants and mud-besmeared rooters' caps will be a thing of the past with the Portland high schools at their Inter scholastlc athletic contests If the reso lutions of the lntorscholasttc athletic committee, adopted yesterday, are car ried out. Trouble baa been brewing for some time, and about a week ago reached Its culmination In a free-for-all fight. In which the students, urged on and assisted by outsiders, blacked each other's eyes and tore op pen- nanta It has been the custom or the win ning team, after an Interscholastlo game at the Multnomah Athletic Field, to serpentine the streets from the bead of Morrison street to the downtown dis trict. A few of the Jealous ones on the losing side have endeavored to break up these parades, which have usually been beaded by a high school band. The lnterscholastlc athletic com mittee, at yesterday's meeting, de cided that hereafter It shall be the privilege of the winning team and school to celebrate as it sees fit, un molested by the other schools. This action was taken azter tne Board of Education had delivered Its ultimatum to the principals and scholars that unless a definite promise were made that rowdyism cease, no more athletic contests between the schools would be permitted. Edgar Piper. Jr.. was elected chair man of the lnterscholastlc committee yesterday. He Is president of the Athletic Assoolatlon of the Lincoln High School. Other members are: Howard 6. McKay, director Athletic Association. Lincoln: Frank Buckley, president senior class, Lincoln; Clifton M. Irwin, yell-leader. Lincoln; Robert McMurray. president of the student body. Jefferson; Dick Orant. Washing ton: Don McLaren, president student body. Washington; Vera Wlndnagle, director student body. Washington; Paul Wilson, yell-leader, Washington. I. N. German, of Lincoln, and Virgil Earl, of Washington, football and base ball coach, met with the committee as representatives of the faculty. The meeting waa held at Washington High School. The committee will confer with the principal of each of the three schools, and will call an assembly at each school Wednesday morning, when, after an Introductory speech by a member of the school visited, one representative of each of the other schools will speak, assuring the students that the senti ment of the entire school was not rep resented in the fight. The school losing any Interscholastlo game here after, will be urged to take Its defeat In a sportsmanlike manner, without demonstrations. 5 STATES UNITE IN CAUSE (Conttnesd yrom nrst PagO adequate spark arresters were the most serious menaces to timber. Oil-burning equipment In the woods, he said, waa desirable, but he predicted that the demands of safety and eoonomy eventu ally would force the application of electrical power la all big logging en terprise a In the discussion of this subject, which was general, one speaker pro posed that all cigarette smokers be denied employment In logging camps. Although the suggestion waa admitted to have merit, the association took no formal action. Another logger pro posed that employers supply their op eratlvea In the woods with patented rlgar-llghters, on the theory that many of the forest fires result from discarded cigarette or cigar stumps or the care less throwing of an unextinguished match Into Inflammable debris. Taking up the subject of railroad fires. F. A. Sllcox. of the United States Forest Service, made the assertion that 40 per cent of the forest fires la the country could be charged to the rail road a Three means of combatting the danger of fires from this source were recommended, as follows: Safeguard ing railroad engines by the use of ade quate spark arresters and equipping fireboxes with a mechanical contrlvanoe for preventing the scattering of cinders, clearing right of way under super vision of forestry officials and patrol ling the tracks. Earnest co-operation of the railroad officials In his district, reported E. O. Hawksett. of the Pend d'Orellle Timber Protective Association, had been -supplied with the result that the num ber of fires resulting from railroad en gines bad been reduced to a minimum. The argument used in obtaining this co-operation, he said, was to convince the railroads that the destruction of timber involved a reduction In tonnage to the transportation companies. The railroad companies were not without representation at the meeting. M. J. Buckley and J. F. Graham, as sistant general managers of the 0.-W. R. N.: W. C Albee, of Tacoma. division superintendent of the Northern Pacific, and E. W. Osborne, of St. Paul, fire Insurance Inspector for the same company, presented the railroads' side of the controversy and explained that they were doing all In their power to lessen the danger from fire. They pointed out that the railroads were showing a disposition not only to em ploy preventive measures but to as sist In extinguishing fires after they were discovered. Incidentally they apprised the timber men that many of the fires attributed to the railroads were caused by trespassers along their rights of way. Trala Passengers Also Blamed. This explanation was concurred in by, H. D. Langllle, of this city, who spoke of the carelessness of passengers on railroad trains throwing half smoked and lighted cigars from the train on to the company's right of way. He also referred to the menace of fires started by tramps on the same right of way. Btate Forester Elliott, of this state, made the announcement that only 5 per cent of the forest fires re ported to bis office this year were charged to the responsibility of the railroads. "The other S3 per cent," said he, "were caused by the careless ness of logging camp operators." George A. Day, personal representa tive of Governor Hawley, of Idaho, a state with 400.000 acres of timber lands, told of the Interest the people of his state had In the subject of forest con servation. The last Idaho Legislature, explained Mr. Day, appropriated 130.000 for the protection of the forests of the state, which for the year had been thoroughly and efficiently patrolled at a cost of only cents an acre. The morning session was devoted to hearing reports from the various offi cers of the association and a number of State Foresters who are attending the convention. A. L. Flewelling. of Spokane, president of the association, presided and the day's programme waa carried out with the Inexorable preclse ness of the schedule of a fast-mall train. Just before adjournment yesterday afternoon. President Flewelling an nounced the appointment of the fol lowing standing committees to serve for the ensuing year: Resolutions A. P. Sprague. E. T.
