TRAP SHOOTING
MAY BE REVIVED
There is a strong probability that
trap shooting as a sport will be re
vived in Pendleton and that this city
will maintain a club in a league
which will include all of the prin
cipal cities in Oregon and two in
Washington. For the purpose of
arousing interest in the sport and
organizing if possible a club, Gus
Peret, famous Oregon boy who has
made a reputation as one of the best
marksmen in the world with revolver
rifle or shotgun, is here today and
will spend the balance of the week.
The idea of a state league was con
ceived by Peret ana so eagerly has
It been received that a club has been
organized in every one of the twelve
cities except Pendleton at this time..
Under the plan of the league, each
club team will meet every other one

county for 32 years, having been en

time. In 1846 he was married to Miss
Margaret Dow and nine children were
born to them.
Five of the children living are: C.
H. Bolin of Linn county; J. B. Bolln
of California; Mrs. Frank Thompson
of Florida; Mrs. Charles Vinson of
this county and Mrs. T. P. Gilllland.
Mr. Bolin died at the home of his
nelce Mrs. Sadie Plerson with whom
he had made his home the past 22
months. He was 86 years oldvat the
time of death.
The funeral was held Sunday, with
burial in the local cemetery. Bev.

road fare, a feature responsible In a
large degree for the enthusiasm with
which the proposal has been received.
As outlined by Peret, the plan Is
simple. The clubs will be paired
each week and a day assigned for the
match. On that day each club will
f-hoot at its own grounds under the
supervision of an appointed judge
and every man in the club will be
eligible to compete. However, only
the five high scores will count in the
match. These scores will be sent In
to the league headquarters and com
pared. The season will commence
during the middle or latter part of
February and Will continue for elev
en weeks so that each team can shoot
against every other team.- The win
ner of the largest number of matches
will win the trophy which will be
put up.
The cities proposed for the league

and Ashland in southern Oregon, and
Vancouver and Camas in Washing

Grande where his proposal was at
once accepted. Likewise all
other cities have fallen in line with
out hesitation. Peret states that, de
spite the fact that at present there is
no trap shooting organization here
he finds the sentiment for one very
good and contemplates calling a
meeting of sportsmen during the lat

SHUT TO WILSON
Princeton, X. J., Jan. 21. Admis
sion to Nassau Hall was refused to
President-elect Wilson, who, as gov
ernor of New Jersey, is ex-officlo
chairman of the board of trustees of
Princeton University, because he had
no permit to visit the building. Aft
erward he tried the door, but it was
locked and he turned away In dis
gust, with the remark, "There's "an
Ignoramus over there and a locked
door here."
The governor was taking a regular
Sunday morning walk and this time
was accompanied by Mrs. Wilson and
Mrs. Toy. who is a visitor at the Wil
son home.. They directed their
course to the university campus, the
governor pointing out special fea
tures of the various buildings. Arriv
ing at the ancient pile, the President
elect excused himself and ducked into
the basement and asked Samuel Da
vidson, official Janitor of the gym
nasium, to be permitted to visit Nas
sau Hall.
The Janitor replied that he must
have a permit. The president-elect,
not to be deterred by the refusal,
tried the door anyway, without success.

by the sale of ground near the new
Mall Archway at Charing Cross at
$127 a square foot, or about $5,500,-

As compared with the New York

A Complicated Iaw Suit.
Involving more questions of law
probably than any suit which has
been tried In the local court for sev
eral years, the case of T. F. Kendall
vs. the First National Bank of Mil
ton is still being fought before Judge
Parker of Condon, sitting for Judge
Phelps, who is ill. The case began
Saturday, but owing to the snow
blockade which prevented Jurymen
plaintiff, defendant and witnesses
from reaching the city until late yes
terday. It was not resumed again un
til this morning. As yet the plain
tiff has been the only witness on the
I stand and there are eight others to
follow'. The suit Involves a note given
to Kendall when he sold his hard
ware store and which he claims the
bank did not protest when It became
due. Later the mortgage was fore
closed but the amount realized left
the plaintiff In arrears about $1200,
which amount he claims the bank
should pay because of negligence.
The bank contents it was not hold
ing the note as collateral but merely
as an accommodation for the plain
tiff. The case Is a complicated one
and it Is predicted will be appealed
which ever way the Jury decides. Col.
James H. Haley is representing the
plaintiff and James A. Fee and S. D.
Peterson the defendant.
