'1'he project iuvolvea mending autiroxiuiuteiy &i51lHJU to make the uecessury extensions mid representatives of the district will meet with the board to discuss the matter. The election of teachers for the city schoola Is expected to attract roucn interest since the board's policy on this matter has been umleteriuiued this year. Karlier In the suriuK, re. trencbnieuts, including abandonment of the Geary school, were msde with the expectation of eliminating eleven teachers. 80 far, eight have resigned. The recent developments under the MIA, however, have changed the sit uation somewhat and the board prob ably will consider a proposition of re taining all the teachers rather than eliiniuutiug the other three of the orl ginnl 11. Action on this phase of the matter, however, is problematical. The problem of salaries also Is sche duled to be considered, the board be ing faced with the question of further salary cuts or returning the busis es tablished last year. It was understood Monday Mr. Bco bert had handed his resignation into the city recorder, to be submitted tu ' the council Mondoy night. Arthur Hen- dersbott, councilman from the same ' ward and upon whom fulls the duty of recommending a successor from this ward, said Monday he would not make any recommendation Mouduy night. The matter of sewage disposal here IS expected to be considered by the council with Dr. Frederick Strieker, state health officer, attending the meeting of the council tu discuss the matter with the city fathers. He will confer with them on the point of dis posing sewsge under the stat law. STORY' (CONTINUED FROM PAGE I) could sa new and jagged contours on tht Tast peak. Streams Turn Blood-Red When the Inhabitants of the Mc- Kantle teller awoke Sunday morning ther were eranied to find that the ' blue and crystal waters of that beau tiful stream had turned to blood red. Fishing was almost Impossible. Drink ing water had to be settled. They called Smith Taylor at the Willamette forest ranger station' at McKensle bridge and he Investigated and found what had happened. A flood of watera dammed up for centuries under Lost Creek glacier ap pears to have been relessed. ' It has swept out through the meadows adjoining Separation creek picking up thousands of tons of red lava silt. Separation creek, Horse creek and the McKensle from the month of Horse creek (near McKensle bridge) were soon impregnated with the red ash, Home of it also believed to have found its way Into Linton creek. The McKensle and the tributary stream were clearing Monday and It Is believed the phenomenon will soon be a memory. Only occasionally in the course of centuries could such a thing happen. In the opinion of those who know mountain formations. Water Supply It Clear There Is no danger that the Eugene water supply whlrh comes from the . Mrkensle near Wnltervllle will be nf tented. The rlty's filtration plant and settling basins will take earn nf that. Nor is a little clean lava dust in any way harmful to human life or fish life. The phenomenon Is ft variation on the usually slow and undrsmntlc pro cesses of erosion. Pome years ago, Dr. Kdwln T. Hodge, t'nlverslty geologist wrote a book on the geology on the Rlsters area whlrh Is still used as the chief text on the region. Remains of Ml. Maiama He holds the belief that the North, Middle and South Bisters and Broken Top mark the remains of an enorm ous volcanic cone which he deslgnnted "Mount Morrimn." It may have been 20.000 or .10.00(1 feet In height. At somo tlmo thousands of years ago It blew up. North Sister and Broken Top nre believed to be port of the origins) Mount Mnxama structure. Middle and Routh are newer cones which pushed out through the re mains. South Ulster Is supposed to be the youngest of the mnuntnlns, geologically, and Its red lava of re cent data is supposed to account for this. In the top of Routh Sister there Is still a huge crater end a min iature, deep blue crater lake. All the peaks, however, hsve been Inactive for many centuries. As a rule weathering is a slow and almost Im perceptible process. The various turrets and promontories and the vnst clselers have gone without percept ible change for centuries. The perennial snows and the In tease cold throughout most of the year sccount for this. In mid-sum. mer, however, some active erroslon occurs. Vnder the hot mid-day suns, torrents of water pour down from the snowflelds and glaciers, but as a rule this process Is checked by tht frees Ing temperatures at night.

Small avalanches are common in the hij.'h mountains. They make a nolne like thunder and quite often they leave a trail of (hint clouds which la difficult to distinguish from "a amoke" (forest fire). Big avalanches, however, are quite uncommon. So fare as Is known, no person was on the South Sister or anywhere with in risnuer from Friday's. avalanche.

It is considered improbable that the. slide , will make any permanent changes In Ltfst Creek glacier because it is too huge to be altered mater ially by any quick change, but the breaking away at the glacier snout will be accelerated by the lowering nt the dam, or morrnine which holds it back.
