128-0 SCORE
Nicholson- Scores Twice on
Successive Scrimmage
. Plays, Long Runs
Locals' Supremacy Revived
After Brief Eclipse;
Caps Cause Row .
. By RALPH CURTIS
Salem's long-established su
premaey over Albany on the rid'
iron, rudely interrupted a year
ago, was reasserted in convinc
ing fashion Friday night when
the. red and black Juggernaut' of
Salem high rolled orer the green
shirted lads from the Linn county
seat to pile up a 29 to 0 score.
It was a field day for Jimmy
Nicholson Jr., Salem quarterback
who set something of a record by
scoring touchdowns on two suc
cessive scrimmage plays, with
only . a point conversion and a
klckoff between. The first of
thesi twe rapid scores in the
third period was a 39-yard run
and the second a 5 5-yard Jaunt,
and though his teammates helped
him get past the line of scrim
mage,. Jimmy's feet flew so fast
that he outdistanced his inter
ference and had to get past the
secondary strictly "on his own.
Coach Hollis Huntington an
nounced early in' the week that
be was planning to "iron out the
mistakes" made in the Bend game,
and , his team's showing Friday
night indicated he had accom
plished that objective except
that the boys still violated a few
rules and suffered as a result
Several goalward marches were
nullified by penalties.
After being stopped in that
manner on Albany's 12-yard line
early in the game, Salem quickly
seized another opportunity when
Coons recovered an Albany fumble
on Albany's 25-yard line; Winter
mute and Nicholson in three plays
made it first down on the 7, and
Nicholson went over from there.
His kick for the extra point was
blocked.
Right after the opening of the
second period Nicholson paved the

make an inquiry to determine
how much Increased labor, costs
had contributed to sharp rises in
the price of textiles.
Dr. Fred C. Howe, consumers
counsel of the farm administra

stores were attributing high sur
charges by manufacturers to the
processing tax ott cotton and to
labor and other costs of the NRA.
The farm administration has in
vestigated to find out what part
the processing tax of 4.2 cents a
lint pound on cotton has played in
the price rise and has come to
the conclusion that the tax is neg
ligible. Dr. Howe said the investigation
he proposed was "rightly within
the province of the NRA, particu
larly its consumers' advisory
board, except insofar as the pro
cessing tax is concerned."

Broader Base for Taxes for
Schools; View; Principals
In Annual Meet Here
State contribution for the op

ent rather than a temporary basis,
was urged by Charles A. Howard,
state superintendent of public in
struction, at the opening of the
fifth anual high school principals'
conference In the hall of repre
sentatives Friday. More than 100
educators from all parts of the
state were in attendance.
Howard declared that because
of the economic measures neces
sitated by financial conditions and
tax delinquencies it had been in
cumbent upon may school dis
tricts in the state to shorten their
school terms and that some of the
schools probably would .have to
guspend operations prior to the
first of next year. He estimated
that $1,000,000 would be requir
ed to meet the school emergency
during the year 1934.
"If the schools are to continue
on a sound and satisfactory basis
it will be necessary to obtain help
from the state," Howard said.

VANDALS DEFEATED
Idaho Does Well on Passes
But Lacks Power to
Follow Them Up
By CLAYTON V. BERNHARD
HAYWAKD FIELD, Eugene,
Ore., Oct 20 (;P Oregon's
charging line, coupled with the
Temple - Mikulak - Gee backf ield
combination, proved too much
for Idaho tonight as the Web
feet defeated the Vandals, 19 to
0, in their Pacific Coast confer
ence clash.
The Vandal passing attack in
th. second half that thrilled the
spectators was not sustained by
follow-up plays, and the Oregon
goal was never seriously threat
ened. Idaho made three first
downs from passes, but only one
from scrimmage, while Oregon
tallied 14 first downs from
scrimmage and one on a penalty.
In the first period an offside
penalty gave Oregon a first
down on the Idaho 17 after Tem
ple had returned Idaho's punt to
the 37 yard line and the Web
foots Lad bucked through Idaho's
light nine for 15 yards. A delay
ed reverse, with Temple carrying
the ball, advanced Oregon to the
two yard line where Temple took
the ball again to go over for the
first score. Mikulak's kick for the
extra point was wide.
Hardly had the second period
opened when "Butch" Morse.
Oregon end, blocked an Idaho
kick on the Vandals' 13, and
Pozzo, the other Webfoot end
caught the ball on the fly and
returned it to the Idaho six. On
the first play Mikulak, Oregon's
star fullback, ran through guard
on a delayed buck for the second
touchdown. Temple's place kick
for extra point was wide.
In tbe final period, after Ida
ho had kept the play mostly in
midfield throughout the third
quarter, Bobbitt carried the ball
over from the Idaho 16 for the
final touchdown. Milligan, re
placing Temple at half, place
kicked the extra point.

Discussed
Holiday Scheduled to
Start Today Noon;
Move Spread
Cost of Production it
Demand; Business
Men to Back
(By the Associated Press)
Milo Reno, I president of the
National Farmers Holiday associa
tion, yesterday spread the call to a
farm strike through midwest
states while President Roosevelt
and his cabinet discussed a plan
to offer crop loans to farmers.
The strike was set for noon to
day as a climax in protest against J
low prices of farm products which
already caused Governor William
Langer of North Dakota, to order
an embargo on wheat shipments.
As Reno the militant leader of
the farm strike movement, .raced
from St. Paul to Omaha to obtaia
support of business men for the
movement and then to Des Moines
to look over the Iowa , situation.
Governor Charles W. Bryan of
Nebraska, extended his sympathy
to the -purposes of the strike, and
Governor A. G. Schmedeman of
Wisconsin, pledged his adminis
tration to assist "in a forceful
but' dignified demand which will
immediately put agriculture in
Wisconsin on the road to restora
tion to its former high position."
Announcements of cooperation
were received from various state
branches of the holiday organiza
tion. The Omaha business men with
whom Reno conferred acceded to
his request with the pledge: "It
is the sense of this meeting that
we favor guaranteeing the farmer
Cost Of production."
To fortify his embargo order.
Its effectiveness still unproved.
Governor Langer ordered North
Dakota sheriffs to stop shipments
of wheat from the state by refus
ing to permit elevators to load
grain. The aid of the national
guard was promised in enforce
ment of the decree. Railroads per- .
sisted in their stand that they
would not observe the order, con- .
tending federal laws governing In
terstate commerce demanded they
accept shipments of grain when
offered. 4
The administration at Washing
ton was manifestly concerned over
the restlessness in the middle west
and the situation was discussed
at length in the cabinet meeting.
The White House afterwards gave
out word there would be no
change in the government's policy
seeking to bolster prices of farm
commodities.
Secretary Wallace of agricul
ture said that "we may have
something to announce shortly."
Specifically, the cabinet talked
of making available federal loam
to farmers which would enable .
them to hold fheir crops during
the period of sagging-prices.
