He might j be called the cowboy governor, j and it wouldn't be doing him an j Injustice at all. He hes baen through the mill of the farm and ranch life, and there is no prob lem of rural affairs that he has not experienced. Wears P.1r Hat He wears a broad-brimed hat that is a real hat and not a trick ornamentation. Yefterday he wore a rose that wiil never again be fjuite as good as it was when it was pinned on. He wouldn't be picked out as the habitual flower j wearer though be has the words and the montal vision of one who would love flowers even more than his own white-faced calves.

Two big eastern football teams on the way to California for holiday games spent today here, departing to night for the coast. The Unviersity of West Virgin ia squad, 28 in number, in charge of Coach Spears, arrived on the same train with Coach Hugo Ber dek's Penn State team, which is scheduled to play the University of Southern California at, Pasa dena on January 1. The West Virginia eleven will battle Gon zaga at San Diego on Christmas day. Coach Spiers said the West Vir ginians were in the best of shape after the eastern season. Coach Spears said there was a difference in the tactics of the three eastern schools, Pittsburgh, West Virginia and Penn State, which are to play on the coast. Pittsburgh will play Stanford De cember 30. "We use a line shift and Pitts burgh shifts only his backs," Spears said. "Then, there is a difference in the way we go after forward passes. The eastern teams feel they are fairly well fortified against anything the far western elevens can spring, and, of course, hope to emerge on tha long end of the score." The Penn State squad, com posed of 22 players, travelled west in a special car, which will be dropped off at Williams. Ariz., Friday night. The party will make a tour of the Grand Canyon on Saturday, arriving in Pasadena on Sunday atteroon to prepare for the Southern Californians on New Years day. The Mountaineers are used to both frosty weather and to warm and do not believe the heat of the west will slow them up. "It would probably be like our early fall practice weather." Coach Spears said. "The only thing we dread is the long ride. I am sorry we did not have an Op portunity for a workout for the day would have been ideal. or. Joseph Wirtb.

Ritchie, agent, Salem The amount that, has been sent itn th Salvation nrmv for winter relief for the work among the I needy, according to Captain Hol I brook, is only about half of what lit was last year at this time. (The extreme cold spell has j brought on suffering that per .haps would not have occured. j There are families that have jbeen found that it was impos sible to keep waitng until Christ. I mas and the Salvation army has 1 always made it a point to give i relief immediately when the need is found. Appeals have been sent out and some have- responded with checks but there are a number who have made- no response and unless more money is sent in there will be a great deal of suf ferng. In some of the many cases that Mrs. Captain Holbrook has personally investigated she haa immediately sent orders or gro ceries to the homes. Captain Holbrook also says that he feels that there are a number of people who have no 'tiea just how conditions are, but he also feels that when the peo ple do there will be a more lib eral response. Among the boys who have come to the Salvation array for a hot meal was one boy who had three marks on his body from wounds received in France. He said that it was the first hot meal that he had had in three Cays. The feeding of these boys is in addition to the work in the c'ty. The need is greater than is realzed.
