Shortstop Crawford of "the Varsity baseball team and'4 Lloyd Turpln, the crack freshman sprinter from Lowell High School, are dropped. Crawford was beyond a doubt the strongest man on the Varsity' team. Coach Swindells says that The Stanford shortstop. Is Jlhe greatest player of his position that he has ever seen among amaMurs. Added to his work on the Infield. Crawford ! one of the team's heaviest strikers, standing third on bat- ftna average. The shortstop position wl be filled by Williams, the promising freshman from Multnomah Club. Turpln, who was relied an by Stan ford to take either first or second piaoe In the 100-yard dash of the Intercol legiate meet, has covered his distance In a shade under 10 1-8 seconds this year. Now that Turpln 1a goae no man la left In this event who may be considered in the same class with Abadle of the Uni versity of California. A great deal of Indignation was ex pressed today by the students when It was found that Crawford's professors had Interceded with the scholarship committee on his behalf but that body hid sternly refused to allow the short- wop a chance to take re-examination on the work In which he was deficient. Thirty-five were warned to brace up in their work. Of those dropped one was from the geology department, three law, one civil engineering, one chemis try and one economics. SHALL HARVARD DROP FOOTBALL? Intense Agitation Prevails on the Crimson Campos The latest contribution to the active output of football sensations, that the Harvard faculty has put It up to the Harvard athleUo committee to decide whether football as an Intercollegiate sport should be dropped, does not alarm Harvard men here who favor footbaV and one who does not favor Its continu ance cannot be found with a searoh warrant. Aiiy Idea of cutUng football out of the athletic curriculum la char acterised as "nonsense." It la pointed out that on the athletic committee, which is said to have the question on the fate of football under consideration. Is too strong an array of those who are enthusiastic over the game to permit of Its enforced demise at Harvard. Evert J. Wendell, whose opinion carries weight with Harvard men, bad the following to say on the subject yesterday: "I have heard nothing of any step being taken at Harvard to abolish In tercollegiate football, and I fancy It Is only , a rumor, started by Prof. Hollis' recent article suggesting that the Har vard-Yale game be dropped. "While having much regard for Prof. Hollis, 1 did not agree with the general sentiment of the article, and consider it would be a great misfortune to drop football, and especially the Yale game. I do not believe it has been considered seriously and hope It will not be. Tho Yale game Is the most Important In our schedule, and I know no Harvard gradu ate who does not want It to continue. If the game has features which need change In the rules, talk of that If you like, but never think of giving up the Yale game." He Will Campaign in the Country Where they Are Made. Qtneral Manager OL F.

'But am not at an oertain I shall be successful in my. search, as has been said by several others, there are many kinds of fenders, but none that Is wholly successful. It la not the Intention of the City tc Suburban to wait until Jan uary 1, 1804, to Install the fender, but It will be put "on the cars as soon as It Is discovered. It to as much to the Interest Of the company as It can be to the city or state to gurd against accl dent, as the company Is the one that must be responsible for damages.

SPRING ATHLETICS The beginning of Spring In the Paclflo Northwest notes a general movement In ail linos of athletic sports. Baseball Is first on the card. In every city and town In Oregon teams are being organ ised to play the great national game. Prom the professionals who earn their living by It, to the lad of six Just on his way to his first lesson at primary school, the Interest manifested speaks volumes for the outdoor activity of younger Americans. It Is a healthful sign and means bo much for the future develop ment or our boys, in the colleges. this season of the year, the cracks of every branch of athletic endeavor are In training for the spring and summer meets. And while the boys are having such a glorious time on the grid, field and track, we should not In our haste of enjoyment overlook the girls, who relish a game of "one old cat" just as raucn as their brothers. In these days school children take more Interest in games of basketball, cricket and tennis, than they do In dancintr.

"CHARLES M. REEVES, "Chairman Appropriation Committee." CELEBRATED SILVER WEDDING The silver wedding of Mr. and Mrs. L. F. Clark of St. Johns was celebrated last evening in Artisans" Temple, at Portsmouth, In the presence of about 70 Invited guests.

A bountiful aupper was afterward spread in me Danquet nalL Mrs. Clark la post mistress or. ou jonna. A mother living In Charleston, Mass., the happy possessor of four children, writes: "Every fall and winter I have laid In a stock of cough remedies, croup mixtures and throat medicines for my children, for somehow or other they never seem to be free from colds, coughs or sore throat. "This fall I made a change In the usual program. I had myself been cured of an obstinate catarrh, from which I had suffered for years, by Stuart's Catarrh Tablets, and as they were pleasant to take I determined to try them with my children. Our family phynlrlan told me he knew them to be perfectly safe and nothing better could be uned for catarrh coughs and colds. So I gave them to the children and have continued to do so ever since, when ever there Is the least lgn of croup or sore throat, and I no longer dread the approach of cold weather as I once did, "Stuarts Catarrh Tablets not only cured me of chronla nasal and throat catarrh, but they have saved me many an anxious night with my little ones. THe children like the taste of them, and It la really wonderful how quickly they will break up a croupy cold or an obsti nate, deep-seated cough." People who have used1 sprays, Inhalers, salves or washes for catarrh and have found how useless they are, will be agreeably surprised at the results fol lowing the use of a pleasant, convenient. Internal remedy In tablet form.
