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.

STATE GRAIN
OFFICE CLEAR
Seymour Jones Returns to
State All Appropria
tions for Work
Economics practiced by Gov
ernor Patterson and Seymour
Jones, state market agent, in the
conduct of the state grain depart
ment in Portland, Monday made
it possible for Mr. Jones to re
turn to the general fund of the
state $21,828.30. which repre
sents all appropriations made for
the department since it was cre
ated in 1927. 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."

SHAFFER
MANY GHARGES
Gervais Man Arrested After
Traffic Officer Fires at
Fleeing Auto
John Shaffer, Gervais resident,
was arrested on the highway near
Auroria at about one a. m. Su
dsy after a thrilling chase during
which State Traffic Officer Van
DeWalker fired several shots at
Shaffer's car. He will be tried
either Wednesday or Friday of
th4s week on one or more of a
number of charges, including
breaking glass on the public high
way, driving without lights, resist
ing an officer and reckless and
imprudent driving.
VanDeWalker had Just fin
ished negotiations with another
driver for a minor offense, when
the car driven by Shaffer speeded
past, with no lights showing, ac
cording to the account given out
concerning the episode. His sus
picions aroused. Van DeWalker
gave chase in his own car. Shaf
fer flashed his lights on for a
brief moment and then switched
them off again, driving faster than
ever. Van DeWalker sounded his
siren. Several bottles were hurled
from the Shaffer car and shat
tered on. the pavement.
Fugitive Overtaken
Going at top speed, Van De
Walker drew his gun and fired
several shots at the lower part of
the fleeing automobile. A few min
utes later he drew up alongside,
forcing Shaffer toward the ditch
and causing him to stop. His ar
rest followed. Mrs. Shaffer and
Mr. and Mrs. Frank Joerg of Sil
verton were also in the car, but
were released. Shaffer was lodged
in. the city Jail here until Monday,
when he was arraigned in justice
court and released on $500 ball.
Two. bottles, containing an un
defined liquid, were brought to
Salem by Van De Walker along
with his prisoner. These repose
in the safe in justice court and
are expected to be displayed at
the trial.
Shaffer was sentenced in the
fall of 1926 to serve 30 days in
jail for reckless driving.

GOVERNOR ANO
SENATOR FIGHT
Hand to Hand Argument Out
Between G. W. P. 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.
