back at Brothers College, Is Hero.
Francis Clifford. tha Jt-year-oM
quarterback of the Christian Brothers
College football team, and a member
of the basketball team. Is the hero of
the school Just now. He has given
skin from one of his legs to save hla

arlve more from his other leir. The
skin-grafting operation was performed
at his home, at SJS Halsey street, last
Monday by Dr. Robert Holt and Dr.
Jamea Graham. Bo rtlents are doing-
well.
Mrs. John Condon, tha grandmother,
who Is CI years old. came to Portland
from Omaha. Neb., about two months
mo. Two days after bcr arrival she
was run over by an automobile driven
by a son of Charles 8. Rudeen. The
accident happened at the corner of
I'nion avenue and Halsey street, while
Mrs. Condon was crossing the street.
Both her legs were crushed. Tha
moat severe Injury was at the knee a.
and aa little of the akin remained. It
waa feared the flesh would heal In such
a way as to leave a hard scar, and
make It Impossible for Mrs. Condon
to use her limbs.
Dr. Holt therefore decided he would
perform a skin-grafting operation, and
Francla volunteered to give It. Seven
pieces of skin were removed from tha
boy's body before It became necessary
to give him an anaesthetic Only half
of the Injured woman's torn flesh waa
covered, however, and another opera
tion will be necessary. Francis Is tha
sen of Mrs. Krsnk Clifford.

plain.
Proclamation la Read.
The Emperor commanded the herald
to read hla proclamation announcing
th coronation. Th herald read loudly,
so that all could hear that Georg had
been crowned King-Emperor.
At that moment th royal standard
was unfurled from tha tall flagstaff

anthem was played by the massed
bands, and 101 guns boomed.
The Viceroy announced that a half

"Definite standards of what combina
