The first acci dent as the result of football here this season, that has been reported happen ed yesterday on the old college grounds when Menefce. son of Mr. and Mrs. R. I- Tracy, sustained a broken arm. Both bones in the left arm were hroken between the elbow and the wrist. A crowd of youngsters were en miring in scrimmage 4Vhat's Oregon's loss is Wash ington s gam, said Constable John Catlin this morning commenting on , another phase of the Odell arrest yes terday. 'I am going to put up a sign' he continued humorously, "to this ef fect: 'Wanted barbers with the best of references. Board jumpers or jail breakers need not apply." Had the Washington sheriff not ar rived the time he did yesterday after noon, arrested the prisoner, A. F. Odell, the barber-who ran the shop in the St. Francis bote, and beat a hasty retreat north, Constable Catlin in all probability would have been going south with the barber as his prisoner at about the same time the sheriff de parted for the north. The latest developments in the case form a rare coincidence. Quietly and unexpectedly the Wash ington sheriff arrived in the city yes terday armed with requisition papers and all other necessary weapons to take Odell back to Ritzville, Washin ton, where he is said to be wanted on a charge of breaking jail. Ac cording to local police he was serving a term there on conviction of con tributing to the delinquency of a min or. The Washington sheriff had trailed Odell to Albany and through the assistance of Chief of Police Aus tin, who conducted the investigation here, was convinced that the man here was the right and succeeded in intercepting him without trouble or delay. It now develops that Udell was in Eugene before coming to Albany. He has been here for nearly three months. The authorities pf Eugene have, been on the lookout for him since he left there, according to the con stable, on a charge of jumping a board bill of $50. Finally Odell was locat ed here. He was cormnuncated with and an effort was made to collect the bill. Odell disregarded the pay ment and accordingly a warrant was secured for his arrest. Constable Cat lin was awaiting the warrant to ar rive by the noon mail yesterday when he learned that the Washington sher iff has gotten in ahead of him and that the prisoner was speeding back to Washington. "Anyway," said the constable, "the sheriff would have had the first crack. HJis case was before mine and in-' volved a greater crime. What's our loss is Washington's gain and what's the difference."
