BELLINGHAM. Wash., Aug. 20
(AP) Inability of K. Furuya,
Portland Japanese artist, to with
stand the rigors of the sudden
atom caused the tragedy on
Vonnt Shuksan Sunday, which
cost his life and that of Miss Thel
ma Martin, Seattle a story of the
disaster told today by Herman P.
"Wnnderling. Seattle, a survivor,
indicated.
Wnnderling was on his way
from Mount Baker lodge to this
city late today.
The other survivor Miss Lea
McDowell, also of Seattle, was eu
route here in another car. Both
-were suffering from exhaustion
- and their toes and fingers were
frozen..
"The two women and myself
started out from Chain Lake Sat
urday noon," Wunderling said,
"and Furuya asked to Join us. He
Mid he was an experienced moan
taineer and desired to take some
pictures of Shuksan. We stayed
at Lake Ann Saturday night and
carry Sunday proceeded up the
trail to Shuksan. About noon a
atorm, becoming fiercer every
minute, developed and we tried to
reach a shelter known as the 'pin
nacle.' "
By 2 o clock Furuya was
weakening rapidly. He slipped
twice and finally plunged toward
a crevasse. I was leading and all
four were roped together. The
(Iris were carried into the cre
vasse by the Japanese, but he
dang to the edge. I managed to
Set him on his feet j and then
palled out the girls. Furuya be
came frantic and we had gone
only a short distance farther to
within 10 minutes climb of the
abetter, when he fell again, this
time carrying us all into a small
crevasse. Before we knew it, he
had expired.
"Miss Martin, who was tied di
rectly behind him, showed the ef
fects of the pulling of the rope
and the frequent falls of Furuya.
We got her to a shelter and hud
dled her there. I took off my coat
nd wrapped it around her and
we did everything we could to
keep her alive.
"She died at 7:30 a. m., Mon
day. Furuya had died at mid
night." Wunderling then described how
Miss McDowell and" himself wan
dered around in the storm after
their two companions had died.
"We tried to reach a shelter,
but became lost in the blizzard. I
had a siren which I sounded fre
quently and this led to our dis
covery by searchers about noon
Monday, when we were groping
dangerously near a cliff In an al
most exhausted condition. We
were returned to Lake Ann, where
we remained Monday night and
iWere able to go, unaccompanied 4y
horseback to Mount Baker lodge
today, arriving about 11:30 a. m."
The party rested there about an
hour before starting for this city
In automobiles. They planned to
continue to Seattle tonight.
Wnnderling, an experienced
mountaineer, was a member of
the most recent Mount Rainier
rescue party.

proposed northern air mall route.
They refuelled at St. Paul, Aber

In the rarlfied atmosphere at
1000 feet over Rock Springs,
Wyo., refueling was most diffi
cult, and before a contact was
completed the flight barely missed
disaster. Only ten gallons of gas
oline remained in the tanks when
the first BO gallons was transfer
red. Once more, when the fliers
reached western Pennsylvania on
the return trip, a storm threaten
ed to ground them. Weathering
this they straightened their course
westward and completed the hop
ta 48 hours and 62 minutes, 17
hours and 45 minutes quicker
than the eastward passage.

Football season Is here. - We
didn't expect to have much to say
about football until after next
week at the earliest; but those
good resolutions all fell overboard
when we got our first glimpse of
the new rulebook Tuesday.
Blamed, If they haven't
changed the dimensions of the
ball again. Looks like the man
ufacturers of footballs are tak
ing a leaf out of the automo
bile manufacturers' book, and
changing the model every year
so that last year's model is out
of date. The new ball isn't quit
as long as last year's. Some ex
perts ay it will be easier to
kick. That's true, if you mean it
will take less skill. But kicks
won't go as far.
A lot of publicity has been given
to the change in the fumble rule.
"A ball which has been muffed or
fumbled and then recovered by the
opponents - after striking the
ground, may not be advanced hut
is dead automatically at the point
of recovery." It rules , out the
thrilling recovery of the other fel
lows' fumble and the run for
touchdown, and also the wlerd
"boner" when a fumble is recov
ered and run back the wrong;
way.
The fact that Roy Riegels of
California pulled that one in the
big intersection! game with
Georgia Tech New Peer's day,
may have had something to do
with the rules committee's de
cision. But there's another change that
wasn't noticed so much: "The ball
is dead when a kicked ball is
legally recovered by the kicker's
side." This has reference to kick
offs, free kicks, and kicks which
do not cross the line of scrimmage.
Nothing is said about it, so
we suppose it's still possible to
score a touchdown by recover
ing your own team's kirkoff or
free kicks; but to do it, you'll
have to recover the ball behind
the opponents' goal.
There'll be no more "passive in
terference" by players Ineligible to
receive a forward pass. The rule
has been changed so that no dis
tinction is made between interfer
ence before or after the ball is
thrown. And the burden of proof
is placed on the offensive team.
Interference cannot begin until the
ball Is caught.
Try-for-polnt after a touch
down is to be made from scrim
mage with the ball on the two
yard line instead of on the
three-yard line.
The other changes are unim
portant. If a player catches the
ball on a kickoff, then fumbles it
and it goes out of bounds, it isn't
any longer an out of bounds kick
off. School teams are allowed to
modify the rules about return of
substitutes, by mutual consent.
Slight changes have been made in
the wording of rules regarding
equipment and conduct of players.
This list doesn't Include
enough changes to make the
game difficult to follow. The
fumble rule will be the one prin
cipally on trial. Host coaches, so
far as we've noticed, favor the
change, at least until they see
how it works.
It all depends on your point of
view. If you want only thrills, it's
probable that you have been de
prived of something. But that loss
will we believe be overcome in the
added confidence which the rule
will give the offense. Players
handling the ball will know that
the highest penalty for a fumble
will be loss of the ball; a fumble
can't be converted Into a touch
down. What's more, a little more
of the luck has been taken out of
the game.
One other thing we noticed
in the football guide. "Xig"
Borleske of Whitman is still
permitted to write the summary
of the northwest conference
season. It's a fair summary this
time, because Borleske's team
won a clear title In football.

they found their fuel decreasing
too rapidly when they reached the
Azores they would turn hack. But
at the last view they were follow
ing the sun westward to their dis
tant goal.
After that no ship at sea sight
ed them during the day and the
night, and today passed without
any report of their whereabouts
or their fate. It was foggy along
the coast today and if they reach
ed Newfoundland and Nova Sco
tia they were not seen.
Judging from their speed as far
as the Azores, the Swiss fliers
should have reached New York at
four o'clock this afternoon, sup
posing that their use of fuel had
been so economical that they were
encouraged to make the entire
flight non-stop. Roosevelt Field on
Long Island, was their destina
tion, whether or not they should
stop for fuel in Nova Scotia. But
there was no sign of them there
as the hours passed.
Field officials decided to burn
the beacons all night, but there
was small belief that the fliers
would arrive for It was generally
felt that their fuel could not have
lasted' so long and that the au
dacious young fliers must be down
somewhere along their course.

The protest states "That on its

original applicants of which the
Northwest Power company is as

or applications In good faith but
merely for speculation, and have
never developed or attempted to

"That there is no demand or ne

velopment of hydro electric power
plants at the point or points
named In the application, and an
investment In ahy amount of
money or capital cannot be justi
fied by any demand or market for
any power that might be de
veloped, as the towns, cities and
population tributary are all sup
plied by large power companies
ready, willing and capable of fur
nishing electricity for all demands.
"That the rivers and lakes
herein named, together with their
water sheds, are more valuable to
the residents and citizens of Mar

ground and recreation than for in
dustrial power purposes and
should be held intact and set
apart as such in order to better
preserve the peace, health and
happiness of the citizens of Salem

office at Juneau.
Upon his return to Marlon
county Mr. Culver was named de
puty county surveyor, later be
ing named roadmaster, a position
he held for many years.
As roadmaster for Marion coun
ty Mr. Culver spent the most val
uable years of his life, having the
major responsibility In the plan
ning and construction of the sys
tem of county and market roads
for which Marlon county has re
ceived statewide and national re
cognition. His work attracted the
attention generally of roadmen
who recognized in Mr. Culver a
leader In efficient engineering and
economical construction.
Mr. Culver's work as roadmast
er followed four years spent as
sheriff from 1904 to 1908 and a
period of years when not in coun
ty work. As roadmaster Mr. Cul
ver was directly in charge of all
road construction and mainten
ance In the county. Until recent
years when Impaired health and
the increase of work necessitated
an assistant, Mr. Culver with the
county court was responsible for
road development.
Culver was a member of the re
