Foot Ball.
AtCorvallis Saturday afternoon the
Chemawas defeated the O. A. C. 29 to 6,
handling them about as easily as they
did the Albany boys. The playing of
Sanders, the Indian full back waa mas
terly. It is doubtful if he has an equal
on the const. '
In Portland the Multnomah's defeated
the U. of O. 21 to 0 secured in the first
half. In the second half the students
braced up and kept the Multnomah's
from scoring.
Verily foot ball is a very uncertain
thing, and it is difficult nny more to
figure from previous games.
Kext Saturday the O. A. C. and the
;U. ofO. will play at Corvallis. The
Dbmocbat has quit guessing.
It is said an effort is being made to
have a game between the U. f O. and
Indians at this city a week 'mm next
Saturday.

Former Albany Teacher's 1 roubles
From the Weston Leader:
Again there is lack of harmony in toe
normal school at Weston. Discord has
raised its ugly head on account of dif
ference between the senior class and
President Reid, who, it seems, is cor
dially disliked by a majority at least o
the class. Notwithstanding an outward
calm, it appears that a storm has been
brewing ever since the hut difficulty .and
now the clouds of wrath have bunted.
Eleven of the eighteen seniors, several
of them young ladies, left the school af
ter the Thanksgiving holiday. Some of i
them went home, and the remainder are
here awaiting the iacue of events. Since
leaving all have received notice from the
president of indefinite suspension for
non-attendance.
The "strikers" consider their eriev-
ancea ineupportable,and assert that they
will never return to the school under his
present head, much as they would like
to remain and graduate in June. They
say that it is not a matter of prejudice,
and that any president with the qualifi
cations of a gentleman would satisfy
them.
The complaints of the seniors are that
the president threatened to "throw Rob
ert Wills ont for smiling;" that he said
he bad a supreme contempt for those who
did not sing; that he accused Charles
IPinkerton of smiling, which the latter
jfdenied.
Don t you contradict me. or I'll throw
you out of here ia a minute," excLumed
the preaaent.
Also, while the students were'marcb
ing,the president inquired if they "didn't
have sense enough to follow the one in
front ol em 7'
Again, one of the renlors pronounced
the word "deaf' as "del. ' The presi
dent sharply corrected this, saying that
some were so aumo they dtdn t know
this word was pronounced "deef." In
the same class, on another occasion, he
remarked that it made no difference to
him whether the class liked him or not,
be would draw his salary just the same.
These vexations culminated at last in
the present difficulty through a note
whicn President Reid caused to be read
to several young lady seniors at the hall
who wished to board elsewhere. This
was to the effect that if the girls left the
hall without a satisfactory reason he
them from school. Thev
