ting out of "the way 'of passenger
cars, J. H. Scott, division engineer,
pointed out today. In substantiation
of this assertion, Scott declared that
an automobile in which he was driv
ing over this section of the road,
was yesterday rammed by a big
highway truck and a fonder of the
touring car torn off. Although the
surfacing on this road is now
smooth and permits easy travel, fine
gravel is still being ' hauled and
dumped on various sections of the
road, according to Scott. No work

Game Ends in Row With the
score standing 8 to 8 In the last
half of the ninth inning, The Dalles
at bat and two men on bases, the
Dufur high school baseball team yes
terday afternoon decided that the
umpiring of the game had not been
all that it should' have been and
walked off the field, refusing to fin
ish the game. The direct cause of
the argument was the calling of a
runner safe at first, in a close de
cision. The Dufur team had been
leading in score during the entire
game until that time. Dufur refus
ing to finish the game, The Dalle's
team claimed the game by forfeit.
