MUNICIPAL" PLAN OF 6ARBAC COLLECTION ED Solution of Present Question ' In Portland Offered by Mrs. Alva Lee Stephens, DISEASE MENACE IS SEEN Com of Oartag-e Vow Bala DnmpM , la Onleaes and la Yaoaat &ots to Sstxlmsnt of Pnbllo Health. By Mrs. Alva Lee Stephens. Much speculation was Indulged in last spring- relative to the length of time our beautiful city would remain cieah and orderly after the vigorous and laudatMfiafforts of certain publ'c spirited citizens whe engaged la the fourteen-day cleanup bad ceased. As u matter of fact one has only to trav erse the highways and byways to know that the ubiquitous tin can, with Its kindred species of garbage, constitut ing Incubators for millions of mosqui toes, flies and other disease-spreading agencies, have again taken up their abode, in gulch, dump yard, 'and vacant l&t. How long will the clvlo conscience slumber while spectacles of bacteria producing rubbish flaunt merited re proach before the gaze of an appar ently apathetic public? Do we not know that "All is needed for each one." and that In matters of public and pri vate welfare we must act for. and tear the burden of, the Irresponsible or indigent member of society, who either will not or cannot perform his full duty toward the whole community? United Effort Urged. A city cannot attain to any appre ciable degree of cleanllneua, health and beauty without the united efforts of lis Intelligent and responsible people manifested in municipal activity Jot the health and welfare of all. The following report from perfectly reliable .people who visited the new Franklin High school a short time ago ihtght be of public Interest: "We found the lighting fixtures so completely covered with large flies that It was impossible to discern of what material the fixtures were made; files also swarmed over walls and ceil ings. These presumably originated by reason of an obnoxious dump situated In the vicinity of the school. During the brief perlodf wo romalned upon the grounds we counted eight perfectly fearless rats gamboling about." A recent Health Bulletin quotes from "ftclenos"' ths following: "tiles that have been experimentally fed on tubercular, sputum have passed the tubercular bacilli in a living viru lent state, and one eminent bacteriolo gist reports that a single fly speck con tained as many as 6000 germa" Sauce Zs Been. T n Ihtt mnmA iaJKU. w 1 ra vr v nrnn. erlywarped to jqake.no purchase, from markets or Stores where files are seen. The menace to health and cleanliness of both rats and flies is too well known to require further elaboration, but one 1 Impelled to remark that, if one fly speck can contain 1000 germs, it is hoped that the health department took Immediate action when report was made to It of the Innumerable army of speck-makers that had Invaded the beautiful new rooms of Franklin High. The logical solution of this entire vexing problem Is the establishment of a munloipal system of garbage col lection and Incineration. It is agreed in practically all reports from leading elttes that the production of garbage and refuso la not less than one ton per day per 1000 Inhabitants, and many statistics figure 1)4 to 1 tons per thousand. Garbag-e Damped In Quiches. Figured on the basis of one ton per thousand population, the city of Port land (estimated population 275,000) produces 275 tons per day. The elty is now incinerating 46,000 tons per year about 126 tons per day for a 865 day year, or US tons per working day. 7 his Is less than half ths garbage pro duced. The balance is disposed of In stoves, by dumping in gulches and on vacant lots, and in a very limited num ber of cases, by burial. If Portland wre not blessed with a remarkable climate, and sufficient rain to wash this exposed refuse to some extent, together with a splendid nat ural drainage, the health statistics wculd be far from favorable, but even under these mors than favorable cll niatlo conditions the disposal of garb age Is going to demand serious and earnest consideration in the .near fu ture. Because the death rate is not exces sive, is no reason why ft should not be very much lower than it is. ' Apathy Is Disouseed, TVople from other cities express sur prise at Portland's lack of progrss slvenoss in this very important mat- t . r and urA wKa im fnmtHai i-1 v, dttions are more than surprised at our own apathy In that we have so long permitted, without vigorous protest, conditions to exist in many sections of 'our oity, resultant from our present lock of system, that' are, to say the least, not, creditable to the community as a whole. The first and paramount reason why Portland should have municipal Kri age collection and incineration is be cause it is necessary lor the conserva tion of the health, comfort and nelf fsapect of, ths community, and a sec ond and perfectly good reason is that It should be an sstablished fact before we can, with any degree of sincerity speak of Portland as a "City Beauti , fuU" COLLARS' Co welt, trrrn bow or rou IN-HAND v 15 eta, Mack, ifor Met. ajyrrr,f eabodv & ca incmakxaj NOW RECOMMEND Arrow .11 CRACK, LOCAU AMATEUR lgg2gajg4SjSBSBSBBBaaMaaaaaa 1 f ' x v i j. s -iii 1 1 I,. u 1 j , A Tbe Union Pacific System baseball team, which has clashed with some of the best teams in Oregon during the present season.

I OREGON AGGIES CAN USE CRACKS IN BUT 6 GAMES First Year Men's Absence to Hurt in Conference Games. Oregon Agricultural Collage, ' Cor vallls. Or.. Oct. 4. With only six out of tho 17 letter men of last year re" istsred In college this fall, ths chanoes for anything like a championship eleven look rather slim, as far as ths northwest conference is concerned.' The Aggie card for this season In cludes nine games, three of which are1 under northwest conference rules, tboA with TJ, of O.. U. of W. and Washington State. Coach Pi pal will have to depend largely upon neV ro oruits this fall, and the ineligibility of freshmen to participate In these games is liable to play havoo with Aggie prospects. Gill, Conn, Anderson. Walker, Hlatt and Webster are alt first year men who are practically assured of a place on the vsrslty. Webster and Oil! are both lined up fqr steady positions on ths wings. Osmund Walker has proved to be one of the finds of ths season on the line. Conn ana Anderson hold enviable prep school reputations which they have been living up to this year in college circles. If Coach Plpal could use these men for the three big games, he might have a chance to pre sent a formidable opposition. But with tho strong teams of the University of Oresron and of Washington State prac tically intact from last year, the Aggie mentor entertains slim Hopes for the outcome. Several noticeable changes In the lineup appeared In the losing game with Multnomah. Moist, varsity let ter man from last year's squad, was removed from the back field and placed on the right wing of the line. Conn, who has worlds of speed and is accurate with the use of" his toe, is playing one of the halfs in preference to his former position at quarter. "Tubby" Walker bas also been shifted over one place on tbe line, and is now playing a guard. Harry Cole has not yet placed his name upon ths college register, and is therefore excluded from competition. Bissett has been acting as captain of tho team so far, but until next Satur day, the last possibls moment for ths return of Captain Abraham, nothing will bo done about sleeting a new leader. Should "Aba" fall to return, which seems probable now, tho logical choice will fall between Blssstt and "nrkhorse'' Newman. With only a few days left before the Aggies are scheduled to meet the University of Idaho football aggrega tion. Coach Plpal la making a desper ate effort to whip the crippled Aggie team into condition to pressnt a half way formidable appearance to ths Moscow contingents. Losses in the Aggie ranks have been frequent occurrences during the past few days. Bissett, fullback and aotlng captain of the team, will be out of the game for at least a week or ten days, due to a fractured rib received in the Alumni game 10 days ago. ' Blssstt played In part of the game with Mult nomah last Saturday but was removed when ths discovery was mads.

If Frank Kendall had paid mors at tention to training lnstsad of seeking publicity, ho might have mad a bettor showing against Lowe Slims, Mike But ler's baldheaded protege, at the Ross City Athletic club last night. Sims outclassed Kendall from the middle of ths first- round -until tho and of tho sixth.- There was-no time during the entire bout that -Kendall acted like a boxer. Kendall entered the ring1 bog fat The spending of several weeks in ths training camp of Frank Moran did not improve Kendall's boxing. Probably the only thing It hslped him to do was to take punishment. In tho fourth round, Sims began using a straight left and a right cross. and hs had ths big Ico roan practically helpless when ths bell rang. Tho fifth round was a repetition of ths fourth, with tho exception that Sims staggered Kendall with a short back handed punch to ths chin. Kendall stalled through ths last round, making no great effort to exchange blows with Sims. As ons mouthy fan kept yelling, "Back to tho tea wagon," It Is llkaly that Kendall will take tho hunch. The ons sors spot of tho evening's card was the announcement that the Bronson-Neff bout was to be a draw if both boys war on their feet at the end of the sixth round. It appeared as If this was arranged to save tho reputation of tho boys, as both are billed to meet Ad Wolgast, the ex- Ughtweight champion. Neff had th better of ths bout, and should have had the decision without a doubt Decisions should bs rendered at tho end of ths bout, not at tho beginnings Walter Knowlton Jabbed Sailor Mo Minn repeatedly throughout six rounds, but because ths sailor mads a couple of quick moves in ths last round Refsres Roy Kendall called the bout a draw.
