The Newberg Graphic savs : "The Pacific College athletes wont up to JJallas last Thursday even in cr. and on tho following afternoon in a dual field meet treated the Dallas Collegians to a surprise, gathering up first place in nine or tho 14 events. Thev reallv de feated the homo team as to points as well, but an unsatisfactory referee picked up on the streets of Dallas. protested just enough points to make the meet a tie, with 63 credits to each team. The referee's work was of a de cided saffron hue, and the Dallas bovs admitted themselves outclassed. " Here is another wail from tho little Quaker school down in tho Chehalem woods. Every time they go up against tho .Dallas Collego lads and tret licked. they go home and cry about it. The score last Friday was n tie, and the Newberg athletes couldn't win, although they strained themselves until their eyes bugged out in their efforts to outdo the plucky boys in crimson. Now thev howl and crv he. cause they wero defeated, just as they use to do whenever Dallas won from them at basket-ball. Survey Logging Road.

Whatever their plans may be, there is every indication of of lively doings in the timber business in esteru Polk county in tho near future. May Run by Trolley.
