The board of regents of the Oregon Normal schools filed Its final draft of a survey made of public Instruction ThursdaJ afternoon and tn the report ap the normal school conditions to the state superintendent or pears a paragraph In which the necessity of providing addition al normal schools In the state Is pointed out "It is apparent to anyone who has studied the situation that there Is need for additional normal school racllltles in Ore gon," says the report. "The Monmouth school alone cannot care for the number of students who desire to be or who should be enrolled In normal Bchoola within the next two or three years and It will be necessary to send Oregon students to Wash ington and California for train ing a practice which Is not only economically disadvanta geous to the state but highly disadvantageous from the staudpoint of professional and school spirit throughout the state."

HAPPY CANYON AGAIN MAKES BIG. SUCCESS RecetptM for Last Three Kvralngs Will Go a Lorn? Way Toward Iay. liur for New l'avillon. The third annual Happy , Canyon was a big success, both as an enter tanlment for the Hound-Up crowds during the evening and a self-suport-Ing Institution. During the last three evenings the new pavilion was crowded to capacity! and the receipts from seat and buck ! sal was very satisfactory. Wiii surplus of the past two years, the In come this year will go a long way to ward paying for the new pavilion as well as the expenses of the entertain ment. There wili probably be a de ficit, of several thousand dollars but the directors believe this will be wip ed out in another year. The show from an entertainment standpoint made a big hit with home people and visitors and many hun dreds were turned away during the last two nigh'.e. Considering the han dicap the committee was under this year, their undertaking was a huge success. The attendance Saturday night was the largest of the four nights and would have been much larger had there been more room for accommo daUon. And yet, so great was the crowd In town that the 6000 or 6000 at Happy Canyon was not missed from the streets. Other amusement places were crowded and still there was a surging crowd making its noisy way up and down the street until past midnight. The special trains began leaving at 10:45 and by midnlgnt several thou sand had departed for their homes. The La Grande and Journal specials left at 11 o'clock with ringing cheers for Pendleton and the Round-Up and the Walla Walla people who left at 10:45 were hardly le-s enthusiastic. ASHBAUGH CASE IS BEFORE THE JURY When the circuit court reconvened this morning the case of L. B. Ash baugh vs. the O-W. R. & N. Co., growing out of the death of Mrs. Ashhaugh in December, 1914, was brought up for a Jury trial. Mr. Ash baugh is suing for $7500 damages for the death of his wife which, he alleges was caused by the negligence and carelessness of the company. Mrs. Ashbaugh was run over by a train when she attempted to crawl under it. The train blocked Main street of Kcho and she wished to get to the depot. The train started just as she was crawling under. The selecting of the jurymen and the stating of the case took up the morning and this afternoon the tak ing of testimony began. Miss KIna Thomson, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. j Asa R. Thomson, was one of the first w itnesses and testified that she had j crawled under the train before It ran over Mrs. Ashhaugh. Judge James A. Fee and Col. J. H.

R O. I'l l!. CO I'll Keep Him at the Wheel" SMiiimmii mn inr LASTr 'SAYS 4 Jackson Sundv, jw world's champion bronch uster, will quit riding bucking horses. He stated this morning that he will never enter another bucking contest. Sundown, who Is past fifty, Is pretty sore today for the se vere shaking Angel gave him and he Is suffering from a cold. He figures he Is too old to stay in the game but he intends to train other Indians for the con tests. He has some bucking stock at his home in Maho and will teach some of the young Indians how to ride. An interesting sidelight upon the Indian champion's charac ter was furnished this morning when he went to Hamley & Co.'s store to claim the $350 prize saddle. When asked what inscription he wanted on the silver plate, he asked that hia wife's name be engraved on It. It was explained that the name of the winner must be placed on it. The Round-Up this afternoon had a picture taken of Sundown In his prize saddle and wearing the gold belt he won as all around champion. To Enforce Federal I .aw. E. S. Cattron, federal Inspector of the. migratory bird law. has been In Pendleton for the past few days en route to Portland from Idaho. He states that the federal law relative to the shooting of migratory birds will be strictly enforced, and Deputy State Warden Tonkin states that he and hie deputies will co-operate with the fed eral authorities.

AUTO FATALITIES IN AMERICA IN ONE YEAR GREATER III TOTAL ZEPPELIN CASUALTIES WILSON PREDICTS HIGHEST PLACEFOR U. S. IN BUSINESS LYRIC THEATER, Baltimore, Sept. 25. President Wilson addressed the National Grain Dealers' Associa tion and urged a new spirit In Ameri can business. He recommended a competition of brains, not selfishness. Three thousand loudly cheered the prediction that America waa destined to occupy the highest place in the business world. "We are facing a new business era. American business has burst its jack et and it now develops that the Amer ican business man is unstudied in the foreign market "We have no merchant marine. Our national banks don't handle for eign exchange. Amenica alwas Is disinclined to touch the nerves of for eign business and not until the for eign reserve act was passed could American banks assist American pro Jects in all parts of the world. Amer ica must step into the new field. My dream is she'll take ner place in that new field with a spirit the world nev er saw before. I want to see Ameri can brains pitted against the world." Cries of "We want Wilson," greeted the president upon entering the the theater. He seemed highly pleased. A great crowd outside was unable to gain admittance. Jackson Sundown, 50 year old Nei Perce Indian of Culdesac, Idaho, is the new champion broncho buster of the world. He Is the first Indian ever to wrest the title rrom the paleface cowboys. Saturday afternoon before the largest single-day crowd that has ev er gathered for Pendleton's annual frontier show the Indian, who has been a contestant tn five Round-Up bucking contests, won the highest honor that a buckaroo can gain and the verdict of the judges was the most popular one with the crowd since the Round-Up began. Sundown qualified for the semi-finals by riding Casey Jones, the hard bucking little buckskin, and in the semi-finals Saturday he rode Wig gles, the sunfU-hing twister, in a most sensational style. This ride popular ized him witji the crowd and it put him in the finals. Of the fourteen riders entered in the semi-finals. Sun down, Rufus Rollen of Claremore, Okla., and Broncho Bob Hall of Po catello, Idaho, were cnosen to ride fh the finals for the cnampionship. They drew for the three mount saved for the finals. Long Tom, Angel and Speedball. Sundown drew Angel, (the big bay that made Lou Minor champion in 1912, Rollen drew the re doubable Old Long Tom and Hall drew the lean, black plunger that has been in many a final contest. Sundown was first to ride Angel Angel was saddled and the Nez Perce CITY RESUMING NORMAL LIFE HOSTS OF VISITORS GO HOME ..

When the blindfold was removed, the big bay upon whom Rol len had made a sensational ride Thursday, pivoted twice , and then made a series of high, long; Jumps such as have spellea defeat for more than one cowboy. The Indian was riding to win everything or lose ev erything. He dug his spurs into An gel's shoulders and stuck them Into his flanks to goad him to his worst Tis long haired chaps flapped as the horse rose and fell and always his big sombrero was waving in the air. It was a thrilling ride and the crowd cheered with a frenzy. Hall was the second up. Speedball made his usual high, long bounds but Hall was master of him from the start. He never took his spurs out of the cinch but he never for a moment lost his balance. Rollen, who was fresh from win' in Kansas City, Chicago and New York and who is acknowledged as one of the very best riders in the country, was the last to ride and when he mounted to the back of old Long Tom, there was a hu.-h over the sta dium. The crowd's sympathies were with Sundown but they felt that It Rollen scratched Long Tom and rodo him to a finish he would prjbly take the championship.
