The N eto Oregon Statesman;- Salem, s Oregon,- Tuesday Morning, November 27? 1928 Wh itaiam To Finish Training ISSUES 1 BIG FAVORITES .Borieske's Men Drill on Pass es; Few Injuries to Weak en Offensive WALL A WALLA, Wash.. Not. t. (AP) Whitman's fighting Missionaries will go through their final workout tomorrow in prep aration for the closing game of the season with Willamette at Salem on Thanksgiving day. Prac tice during the past week was light as the coach wished to give thf players a rest after two hard games within a week. The Missionaries have been working on passing, perfecting an already good aerial attack to launch against the Bearcats. Odds Favor Whitman Odds are rather strongly In fa vor of Whitman to win the clos ing same as Whktman has beaten every other team in the confer ence while Willamette bowed to College of Idaho and to Pacific. However, the ! Bearcats will be. strongly reinforced by the return to the team of three linemen and two backs who were lost to the team early in the season on ac count of injuries. Whitman has come through h hard season with few casualties. Al Quine, halfback, who was out of the College of Idaho game with a bad knee, returned to practice this week but his injuries may keep him from making the Salem trip. Intrst at Peak While Whitman has already Cinched the conference title, whether the Willamette game Is won or lost, interest in the game Is running high because of the traditional turkey day rivalry be tween Willamette and Whitman. Willamette's rejuvenation has added a threat which increases the significance of the contest. Sports Done Brown Hy XORMAX E. DROWX ONE is inclined to discount the statement made in connec tion with the recent appoint ment of Tris Speaker to manage the Newark International league Club, that he is to receive one of the largest salaries ever paid a minor league manager. It would seem, offhand, as though Speaker had passed the day when his name and fame alone would call for a startling sum to manage a minor league club. He had been out of the major league managerial ranks two years. He has been through as a player for the same period. His popularity is not as great as it was in the hey-day of his career. However, he should make a suc cess as pilot of the Newark club. No one will discredit his ability as a leader he won a big league penant and a world title. He still is one of the shrewdest baseball men the game has ever known. He also retains enough of the old spark to provide the spark for a minor league club while playing in the outfield himself. With Speaker already signed to make his debut in the minors as a "former major league 3tar," spec ulation is somewhat rife as to what Ty Cobb's plans for the 1929 campaign may be, Cobb is now on a personally conducted one-man exhibition tour of Japan. He is appearing "in person" in baseball games with Japanese teams and delivering talks on the diamond sport. He has always said that he would Quit baseball entirely when he found his days as a major league player ended. There have been, however, rumors at various times that he would break into the business end of the sport when his playing days were done probably by buying a bail club. New York Captain Improves Rapidly PITTSBURGH, Nov. 26.

In other words, the state grain department has been placed on a self supporting basis. "At the 1917 session of the leg islature," read a report of the state market agent sent to Gover nor Patterson, "a law was passed creating the state grain inspection department and providing for a compulsory inspection, weighing and grading of grain and hay at public terminal warehouses in the state. Much Refunded "An appropriation of $7500 was authorized for the purpose of carrying out the provisions of the law. Further provision was made that fees for inspections, grading and weighing should be fixed and collected sufficient to cover the cost of said services and that the $7500 originally appropriated should be repaid from surplus funds accruing from the operation of the act. "The original appropriation of $7500 proved inadequate and on fsovemoer la, 1911, me emergeu cy board made an additional al lowance of $5000. On November 25, 1919, the further amount of $10,000 was authorized by the emergency board. Money Xot Used "The state grain department did not use all the money appro priated by the emergency board, but out of said amounts including interest thereon, is now indebted to the state in the amount of $14, 228.97. Out of the original appro priation of $7500 the grain de partment has used $7499.33, which makes the amount now due the state from the grain depart ment $21,828.30. "As state market agent I took charge of the grain inspection de partment in February, 1927. I have been able during the past two years to pay all of the expen ses of the department, and in ad dition thereto, have accumulated a sufficient amount of money to ro return to the state all the funds advanced in previous years. "It therefore affords me much pleasure at this time to pay to the Btate the amount of $21,828. 30, the total amount due the state."

Hunt and Colter PHOENIX, Ariz., Nov. 26. (AP) Police were called to the Arizona State capitol late today when Governor G. W. P. Hunt was engaged in a brief fist fight by State Senator Fred Colter. The governor was struck one or. two blows by Colter as the climax of an argument in the capitol lobby. Interference by J. W. Strode, sec retary to the governor, ended the affair. The affair, witnesses said, was the outcome of an argument be tween Hunt, Colter, and several legislators, on the question of the Colorado River State commission, to which Senator Colter Is op posed. When Governor Hunt came from the elevator, heading toward the main entrance of the build ing, he was met by Colter, who had been discussing the make-up and policy of the commission with other legislators. Hunt and Colter became involved in an argument on the subject. The governor's sec retary, strode, stated that as he approached the lobby wall. Strode tackled Colter, catching his arms, whereupon, the legislators closed in, scuffling and shouting. Colter said the affair was accidental. He declared is was "inadvertently brought about when Senator Col ter moved his arms in argument." The governor's secretary, however maintained that the blow had 1 been intentional. ine turmoil naa subsided, ex cept for the aftermath of excited conversations when police officers entered to restore quiet.
