OPENS G. O. P. CONVENTION
Story of the Contest for
Names When Both Towns
Were Very Young
Prof. J. B. Horner of Oregon
Agricultural college, who attended
commencement exercise a of
Willamette university. from
which institution he graduated in
the eighties,' furnished to the 1928
Chintimini. the year bok of the
Corvallis hih school, the follow
ing account of how Corrallis was
named:
Two Oregon friends were eager
to change thir names. One was
Marysville. the other Salem.
Though friondly. they did riot
spend much of their time in "Lov
ers Lane" for they had found out
that both wanted the same name.
Strange as It may sm, each
wished to be called "Corrallis."'
And, though they were very voungj
each was older and bigger than
Portland at that time and they
were able to carry on a stirring ri
valry for the gocd name that both
desirt d.
Marysville, located in 1846, suf
fered much inconvenience because
. Marysville, California, which had
sprung up later, taking the same
name was causing so much confu
sion that mail often went astray.
The townspeople Ukcd the name
Marysville well enough, but
they were not partial to it. In
fact, they did not agree as to its
significance. They knew it was ta
ken from "Mary's river" near
which the town was located, but.
why the name. ''Mary," was
given to rier has not been settled
beyond dispute to this day. It may
also be mentioned that the river
for which the town was named,
traces its source to the noble
mountain called "Mary's peak."
which, in reality is not a peak.
These and other perplexities nat
urally led to more or less apathy
regarding the name ' Marysville."
On the other hand. Salem was
so weary of her name, which was
shared by a dozen towns in the
1'nited States, that she preferred
to b called "Corvallis," and in
case she could not get that name,
she considered other names such as
"CI.emeketa." "Valena." "Chema
"Victoria." "Thurston."
Multnomah." and "Willamette"
as second choice.
This was at a time when Oregon
towns were taking on permanent
names. "Cynthia" was called "Dal
las." "Was-co-pani." "The Dalles"
and "Takenah," "Albany." So
Marysville and Salem were merely
following the fashion tet by Ore
gon rities in the making.
The contest between Marysville
nd Salem was very spirited, yet
marked by a certain degree

When they spoke the name "Cor

"Heart of the Valley" in beautiful
Latin.
The name was especially appro

the head of navigation on the Wil

historic and no man would now
harbor the thought of changing

Strange Naylor-Traver Ro
mance Echoes in Supreme
Court Decision
It may be because femininity is
in the ascension again. Perhaps
the younger ones are tired of liv
ing "out of tin cans." Or again,
the costa might b lower. Hut be
that as it may. the fact remains,
the girls are taking more to those
so-called lost arts of cooking and
sewing. In the case of the high
school especially, it isn't due to
increased enrollment in the school.
The 1927-2S report of Mrs. Eula
S. Creech, head of the home eco
nomics department at the senior
high school and the two junior
highs, shows a 6 per cent increase
in the former and a ten per cent
increase in the junior highs over
last year's enrollment.
The largest (single increase was
noted in the home administration
class, where in the senior high
school there was a 50 per cent in
crease for the second semester and
a 24 per cent increase over the
first year.
The cafeterias in each nehoo!
showed a sliight profit for the
year. Approximately .10.000 stu-
uems atin learners were served in
year, with
Echoes of a strange romance
were heard here Tuesday when
the supreme court decreed that
Martha T. Traver. school teacher
of W ashington county, was enti
tled to the entire SIC.OOO
of Edward L. Naylor.
Xaylor and the teacher were
engaged to" marry, but on the
night of December t, 1910, he
was mysteriously shot near his
home at Forest Grove. Nine yearn
later he died from the wound.
During that time Mis sTraver
cared for him constantly.
In return for this service he
entered into a contract with her
to will her his entire estate. Nay
lor. died in 1920 without leaving a
will.
The opinion wa written by
Justice Rand and affirmed Judge
George R. Bagley of the lower
court.
The supreme court affirmed the
decree of Judge George Rossman
of the Multnomah county circuit

trust agreement in the sense in
which appellants claims it was a

for the mismanagement by the
