Leading Educational Institu
tions of Pacific Northwest
Included.
CONVENTION IS CALLED
Delegates Will Meet hi Portland
Next November to Form Or-
gnnlation.
Portland, Sept. 25. Representa
tives of the leading educational in
stitutions of the Pacific northwest
will meet in this city early in No
vember for the purpose of organiz
ing a Northwest Inter-colleglato ath
lotic association. There has been a
genuine demand for an organization
of this kind for sorao time, espec
ially 8lnco tho application of the Uni
versity of Oregon for membership in
tho Pacific Northwest association of
Athletic Clubs was tabled last June.
Such an organization was sug
gested last spring when baseball
players from several of the northwest i favor of tho plans for a now associa
"An association such as I have in
mind was organized several years
ago, Lul it failed to accomplish any
thing because it was iuu ide in its
scope and undertook to do too much.
Tho old association Included the
Montana colleges and spread out over
a vast area of territory. It was cum
bersome, and fell to pieces through
its own weight. Unless the contem
plated association is organized along
the right lines, history will repeat
itself.
Plan Should Be Simple.
"What we want Is a well-regulated
association with a few simple rules
and with no frills or red tape. Rules
onco adopted should bo rigidly en
forced. The question of semi-professional
and 'brush' league baseball
should receive careful consideration.
"The Pacific Northwest associa
tion did right In refusing to accept
Oregon's application. College and
club athletics should not be inter
mixed. There Is plenty of room for
the two organizations, as each has its
own sphere.
"The questions that naturally
arise in colleges are quite different
from those that arise in clubs, and
vice versa. Personally I am Inter
ested in both branches of athletics,
but believe that they should be man
aged independently."
The presidents of a number of the
northwest colleges are outspoken in
Seattle, Sept. 2C. Less than a
month ago, Mrs. Agnes McCombs
Covington, whose body was found in
a trunk on the beach at Alkl Point
on Sunday, told Miss Ada Kotkins,
her closest friend, that she loved
Charles Burllson better than she did
her husband and that she did not
know what to do. Burllson Is Cov
ington's closest friend. Both men
are missing and the police are
searching for them In hopes of se
curing a solution to tho mystery. P.
McDonough, an expressman, in
formed tho police today that about
two weeks ago he was summoned to
the Kiswlck hotel where the murder
is thought to have been committed,
and removed the trunk to the Gal
brath dock. Two men accompanied
him and he assisted them in putting
the trunk aboard a vessel which he
thinks wa3 the Florence K, which
runs to Eagle Harbor, a small town
across the bay. The trunk referred
answered the description of the one
in which tho body was found.
Medford.Ore., Sept. 25. Two do
Anjou pear trees on the old Solls3
place, on Griffin creek, which made
a passing record two years ago by
producing something like ?S0 worth
of fruit for the tenant now on tho
place, this year eclipsed all records
by yielding no less than 67 packed
boxes of pears, which sold to a local
dealer for $2 per box, making a rec
ord of ?134 from a single crop from
two trees. The joke of it Is that a
little manipulation to give tho
grower the benefit of the actual
value of tho fruit would have
doubled the price. No fruitman lu
touch with the market this year
thinks of accepting even $4 per box
for choice do Anjou pears. This will
attract no little attention to tho sec
tion where they were produced, as
Mr. Soliss, who bought the tract 30
years ago, states that the older tree
was In bearing at the tlmo of his
purchase, and that It has never failed
to bear a crop of pears In all thoso
years.

colleges began playing baseball with
semi-professional nines.
Realizing that thoro Is a general
domand for a northwest Inter-colleglato
association, certain alumni of
tho University of Oregon have taken
steps toward its organization. No
tices have been sent to tho leading
colleges of tho northwest asking that
representatives bo sent to a meeting
In this city during tho second week
in November. Favorable replies
have beon received from Oregon,
Washington, Whitman, Pullman and
Willamette, and it Is thought that
Idaho, Oregon Agricultural collego
and other Institutions will send dele

of athletics at tho University of
Oregon, was Instrumental In work

wns through his erforts that letters

Orgaiilatlou lladly Needed.
"Tho Pacific northwost is sadly In
need of an Inter-collegiate athletic
leaguo or conference," said Mr. Mc
Arthur, last ovonlng. "At tho pres
ent tlmo tho colleges of this section
aro not bound togethor by any kind
of an association or organization.
Tholr methods aro altogether too
loose, and they aro responsible to no
parent organization. Some of tho
colleges huvo rigid athletic stand
ards; others havo not. An associa
tion with tho leading colleges of the
northwest on its membership roll
could proscribe a goneral system of
eligibility rules, regulate schedules,
docldo disputes and determine cham
pionships. Such an association
should afflllato with tho Amateur
Athletic Union of tho United States.

November meeting will bo a thor
oughly representative one.
Tho dissolution of tho old Oregon
Inter-colleglato association makes
tho demand for the contemplated or
ganization more urgent than over
before.

Silverton, Or., Sept. 25. The peo
ple of Silverton have been in a great
turmoil for several days, with Inci
dent animosity engendered, occa
sioned by tho alleged violation of the
Sunday closing ordinance by C. N.
Matlock, a saloonkeeper of this city.
Tho conditions seemed to have
reached the limit Monday evening,
when the city council voted not to
prosecute the case pending and to
sustain the marshal in his refusal to
serve the warrant which had been
placed In his hands. Tho hostility
between tho temperance and saloon
elements is apparently irreconcilable.
It Is understood that the matter will
be taken up before the district at
torney and an effort will bo made to
punish the marshal for neglecting
his duty.
It seems the marshal raided Mat
lock's saloon a few weeks ago and
found the barkeeper disposing of
liquor. Matlock was requested to
appear before the municipal judge
i.ionday morning following, but for
some reason unknown he failed to
appear. A warrant was later Issued
for his arrest and placed In the
hands of the marshal, but this ho
failed to serve and indignation pre
vailed among tho temperance people.
It Is understood that an effort will
bo made to havo the marshal arrest
ed and brought before the district at
torney for neglecting to perform his
duty. Tho case promises to lead to
one of considerable Importance.

This is tho sixth sleop ho has taken
