fcafiímt (Tlarkamaa Nmirs Devoted to the Interests of Eastern Clackamas County V olume 14, E stacada , O regon , T hursday , O ctober 28, 1920 N umber 6 M O W QUARTET PLEASES AUDIENCE That the members of the senior class of the High School, need have no fear of being left in the lurch as to their guarantee of the Lyceum series was evident Fri day night bv the large audience which taxed the seating capacity of the whole auditorium. Prin cipal Burns also announced that the required sum had been se cured. so all additional receipts will go to swell the treasury and insure a continuance another year of a similar course. The entertainment was by the Mozart* Ladies' Quartet, which proved exceptionally pleasing, and consisted of violin and piano selections, sovtgs and readings. The artists are four pretty young ladies who looked charm ing on the stage and acquitted themselves with marked ability. The leading violinist was Miss Frances Brandt, a pupil of a fa mous virtuoso Tirindelli, whoever he may be. Certainly he would have had no reason that evening to be disappointed in his pupil. Unfortunately there w e r e no printed programs, so although the numbers were announced, it is probable that few remembered what they were. The perform ers were heartily applauded and generously responded to encores. • The whole program went through without a hitch, and there'were no exasperating waits between the numbers, so it was out at a reasonable hour. The auditorium became rather too warm and the air heavy. Another time it would be well to have some one open a few windows when such is the case. There will be four more entertainments in the course, the next one being on November 16. Estacada vs. Forest Grove MARRIED—At the home of the bride’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. John Page, in Estaeada, October 20, 1920, Miss Minerva Page to Robert E. Moore. This interest ing announcement was withheld last week by special request, but the ban has new been lifted. It will be remembered that the lights went out of commission that evening, but Cupid was not to be deterred* by such a slight inconvenience. The groom ar rived late in the evening and routed out the Rev. J. F. Dunlop to tie the nuptial knot, which was done in the immediate presence of the bride’s familv. Mrs. Robert Moore was raised here and graduated in last year’s High School class, and is very popular in social circles, and has a host of friends. The groom worked here this spring and summer in the Reed & Shibley garage, from which he only re cently resigned his position, and is now employed in Oregon City. The young couple will make their future home at Gladstone. The N ews extends hearty congratu lations. This game, last Friday, proved disastrous to our boys, as they were beaten by a score of 47 toO. But they showed they were sports by taking it in good spirit, be sides it was no disgrace, as the Forest Grove team w a s much heavier, and therefore had the advantage. As t h e game is played, “ football” is almost a misnomer, it is more a gladiato rial contest. Football pure and simple, used to be played at Win chester College i n England, where there was no slugging, tackling or high kicking. The ball had to be propelled by the feet, and it was considered bad form to kick the ball higher than three feet. This seems tame to the American footballer, but it afforded a very pretty game de manding a good deal of skill and finesse. It was a fine sight to see an expert player run rapidly across the field keeping the ball all the time between his two feet. The Estaeada team will play Ore gon City on Saturday at Oregon City. Debate On League of Nations The Family Theatre was very well filled last Monday evening to hear the debate between O. D. Eby and William M. Stone of Oregon City. Both of these gen tlemen have been going over the county arguing for and against the league. Both handled their own sides well, but they did not bring out any fresh points from those which have been adduced before. It is probable that the adults in the audience had already made up their minds on the sub ject, and their determinations have not been changed one way or the other by the speakers of Monday evening. J. K. Ely pre sided. # Community Club There will be great doings at the Community Club meeting in the I.O.O.F. hall Friday evening. Don’t miss attending t o enjoy the fun.

The gathering was called to order by William Dale who presided with dignity befitting the occasion. The ap pointed speakers were Gilbert L. Hedges, district attorney, R. It. Beatie and E. T. Mass. The first spoke about his office and *ts multifarious duties, what he had accomplished and what he hoped to accomplish if elected another term. It seems generally con ceded that Mr. Hedges has made good and if so it would be wise to retain him. The office should be taken out of partisan politics. Mr. Beatie it will be remembered was recalled when serving as county judge some years ago, spoke on the point on which he was recalled, that of ordering a cruise of the timber owned by various corporations in Clacka mas county. The cost am mut ing to $41.000 was considered excessive, but he showed that the gain to the county in revenue from this cruise has been since 1913 $275,000, thereby justifying the expense of the cruise. He is now again a candidate for the office. E. T. Mass who wants to be sheriff has had experience in lhat office as well as that of dep uty U. S. marshall. He prom ised if elected to give a satis fac tory administration and fulfil his official oath. Matt C. Glover, candidate f o r representative, who was scheduled to speak, was unable to be present.
