Report on t Proposed Inter
; state Bridge is Made by
. Engineer Nunn
A lengthy report covering the
state highway commission's lnves-
tfgatlon'Into the feasibility of a
proposed - Interstate bridge be
tween Oregon and. Washington
'oyer the LQwer'Columbla river as
, near the. Pacific Ocean as possible
j has been : prepared by Herbert
Nunn, state . highway - engineer,
and was presented to the gov
ernor yesterday.
The Investigation and survey
were made In compliance with; an
act of the legislature of 1921, au-
thorlzng an investigation and estl-
mate of Cost of a toot and vehtc
jf alar bridge, and also of a , com-
bjned foot, vehicular and railroad
- bridge. The act provided that the
V report be submitted during the
.1923 session of the legislature.'
f Two Site Mentioned
V !' The report covers location,
feasible construction types, prog
ress report ( jn cooperative work
y with the state of Washington, es
timates of cost, ' and , estimated
. probable income from tolls.
tTwo possible sites are mention
! ed. One would '.; span the - river
from Three Tree point on the
Washington shore to Cathlamet
point on the Oregon aide, repre
senting the most westerly f easi-
hie crossing of the river. It is said
that this site would be the most
1 convenient relative to the pro
" posed through coast highway sys
tem. 1 " r. -,m.v ...
Two Places Compared
Site No. 2 proposes a crossing
(of the ; river in the vicinity, of
Bainier and the bridge would be
much shorter; than at the first
Bile. It Is said No. 2 would be
more favorable to navigation in
terests. , f Summing up relative to the two
sites the report says:
"From a physical standpoint
site No. 2 (at Rainier) presents
much easier construction prob
lems at a somewhat reduced-cost
of construction, and will probably
be : looked upon with more favor
by the federal. authorities than
would site No. 1. It also has dts-
ffj tlnct advantages' to Or
pi axe not possessed by
1 1 . in . .
Oregon which
site No. 1.
and will probably serve, the Inter
ests of southern Washington as
well.? ; - ' ; , :
Though a .similar? Investigation
let was. Introduced In the state
of Washington In 1921 it did not
pass and Washington highway of
ficials had no authority to coop
erate In the Inquiry." The attitude
of that etat Jsnot known..
i Costa Estimated
J Af the first site the first cost
of a cantilever type of bridge is
estimated at 12,032.690. opera
tion $12,000 and maintenance
111,000. For the suspension type
first cost Is placed at $4,492,653,
and operation and maintimanr
the same as for the cantilever
7P. ; .y-ij ;.-..-'vv
t At the Rainier site first cost of
the cantilever type -la placed ' at
$1,C 3 9,3 5 2, operation at $9000
and maintenance at $7000. For
tie suspension type first, cost is
placed at $2.679.00r operation.
$1000 and i maintenance $6000.
Railway traffic would make the
cost higher. .' , ' . V' ' -

CONTESTS
TO DE OEH MA
Speedways;. Signify- Inten
tions to Have Races Under
i Association's .Rules
.That speedway racing' during
1923 will continue under the conT
trel of the American Automobile
Association Contest board is indi
cated by the fact' that officials
oft practically every large speed
iray la the .United! States have
signified their intentions of con
ducting their races under AAA
sanction,: as usual. . Officials of
the Indianapolis Speedway have
already had an . official sanction
assigned for the big race on May
30 and have issued their entry
blanks bearing the AAA contest
board's sanction .number. I.
i Efforts to create the Imnres
alon , .that "a new organization
would take control of speedway
racing in the United States have
hastened the action of the of
ficials, of the l -various racing
plants In assuring the AAA con
test board of their desire to con
tinue racing . under the sanction
of that body. Requests for sanc
tion have been :,recelved even
earlier this year than usual and
in' almost every Instance assur
ance haa been given that the
speedway officials are highly sat
isfied with AAA supervision of
PEED
racing and have no desire to
change. j I-
William Scbimpf, chairman of
the contest board, is now en route
to the Pacific coact and will con-'
suit with about j35 representa
tives of the contest board In var
ious ftates along the route. ; Mr.
Schimpt will spend some time on
the coast and will give personal
attention to contest board, mat
ters in the west. )
lost of the talk concerning the
probability of a j new organiza
tion to govern racing has been
brought, about through the ef
forts of a former 'member of the
contest board who is now aligned
with another ' organlaztion and
wJlo has made several attempts
to organize such a body, accord
ing to statements I by AAA offic
ials.1 It is pointed out that the
gentleman in question, while mak
ing strong overtures to the speed,
ways for their support in the for
mation of a new race governing
body of which it Is understood he
was to be the chairman, failed to
present any particular defects In
the AAA contest board and also
failed to show any practical reas
ons for the existence of the new
organization or any advantages to
be 'derived under it that could not
be enjoyed under the AAA board.

ing to Vancouver " I
One of the most interesting
basketball games on the coast la
to be played at Vancouver. Wash.,
Saturday night. It Is for the
deaf school championship of the
northwest. If not of the whole
continent.
One of the contenders comes
from the Oregon School for the
Deaf, here In Salem; the other
contender Is the Washington state
school at Vancouver. The Wash
ington bunch is known to be
strong; nobody, college or ath
letic club of any, kind of an or
ganization, wants to go into a
game with these boys, unprepared
and thinking they're i "easy".
They are hard as nails, and fast,
and they -play. a team game that
is said to be a revelation to most
common players.
" The Salem team, however. Is of
the same calibre. All the players
were Jsere last year; they play a
game like clockwork, and - they
are at It steadily enough to keep
in perfect condition, i They re
cently beat th Yellow Jackets,
ami earlier in the season beat the
Better-Yet-Bread team of the
YMCA league, the champions of
the league tournament series. It
!s said that their hearing handi
cap is almost an asset, in that,
they use eyes and a sixth sense of
intuition to perfect their game in
a. way that tew other players ever
GO V ' V;",, :"
This meet will be a real cham
pionship, in classification as well
as in actual playing ability. The
Salem team will drive up to Van
couver Saturday morning, being
the guests of the Vancouver school
over -night, and driving home on
SQnday.- There may be a return
jrgame, "here In Salem, a little later
in the season.
Coach Walter Valiant, of the
local team. Is a graduate of Gal

Eugene Quintet. Spills Dope
' and Wins Game at End
of First Half
EUGENE, Or., Jan. 20. The
Oregon basketball team spilled
the dope tonight by defeating the
University of Idaho by a score
or 42 to 35. Oregon took th
lead -from the start and amassed
such a substantial score at the
end of the .first half that the
Vandals were unable to catch up
in the last-minute play.
The Idaho team seemed un
able to get underway during the
first period and missed basket
after basket. It was not until
the last 10 minutes of the game
that they showed the form which
has been predicted. ,
Z Al Fox, forward for Idaho,
was. high point man with 15
counters. .Latham led th home
team' with 15 points. The close
guarding of the Oregtm guards
was the feature of the game.

freshmen defeated
